STEPHANOPOULOS: Are we starting to see a permanent impact on the economy from the shutdown?

BESSENT: Sure. It's getting worse and worse. We had a fantastic economy under President Trump the last 2 quarters, and now there are estimates that growth this quarter could be cut by as… pic.twitter.com/UgSvVKJpSs

Sure, if we cut SNAP benefits and allow health insurance premiums to skyrocket and approve 50 year mortgages, the government can reopen in time for the Thanksgiving recess. Although good luck flying everyone back to D.C., or getting them back home for Thanksgiving. (Was she even listening?)

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that?
