The main democrats collect the government’s closure – and blame the Republicans and President Donald Trump for this – despite the vote against the maintenance of government operations, according to emails examined by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The Democrats of the Senate launched a closure of the government on Wednesday after rejecting a bipartite and clean extension of the funding of the government. Democratic legislators and the best democratic expenditure groups have sent a burst of fundraising email with donations of donations since the start of closure despite financing the endangering of active service, financing the rescue services in the event of a disaster and the access of Americans to certain health services.

The majority of the PAC chamber, a group of foreign democratic expenditure involved in house races, sent a fundraising e-mail Wednesday, with an image of former President Barack Obama and the former First Lady Michelle Obama, with texts that can be seen as follows “the closure of the Republicans continues, and Barack and Michelle Obama speak!” E-mail also indicates that “one of the most powerful and respected democratic couples in history has risen and called on each American to act before it is too late!”
“This is why the majority at the Maison Pac unites a wave of historic support to show Trump and the Republicans that the Democrats will have their government stopped!”, According to the email. “The best democrats therefore agreed 600% correspondence to each donation to help us do it!”
A fundraising e-mail written by the head of the House minority, Hakeem Jeffries, attacked the president on Wednesday for having published an altered video of the chief of the minority carrying a sombrero.
“He [Trump] I have just published a racist and sectarian attack against me in a desperate attempt to distract from the republican closure, “said the email.”When the extremists attract the flames of hostility, you would better believe that I will answer. »»
“I ask 786 supporters to intensify and prove that the Democrats stand united,” continued the email. “Do you want to rush $ 15 before midnight to put Donald Trump and his Maga allies with an astonishing reprimand?”

Jeffries notably refused to say Wednesday if he would refuse a pay check when the government closed.
Vulnerable Chamber Democrats that should align competitive mid-term GOP challengers have also exploded fundraising missives when closing.
Nevada Democratic representative Steven Horsford argued on Wednesday in an email for fundraising funds according to which the Republicans were responsible for closure despite the Democratic vote of Nevada against the funding of the government.
“Together, we can hold responsible Republicans and demand a government that works for the people,” wrote Horsford. “Thank you for being in this fight.”
Likewise, the Ohio Kaptur Democratic representative wrote in a e-mail Ask for donations that she and her colleagues Democrats du Congress “went to Washington all week, doing our job: working to keep our government open and fighting to protect affordable health care for northwest Ohio families and across the country”, while the Republicans have “literally left”.
The president of the Chamber, Mike Johnson, postponed the room following almost all the Democrats of the Chamber, including Kaptur, opposing a Bipartite Network Bill To finance the government on September 19.
Democratic candidates who present themselves to seats in the House in 2026 also recently sent funds for collecting funds attacking the Republicans during the closure.
“Today, Trump and the congress controlled by the Republicans have closed the federal government, and we will all pay the prize”, the Democratic candidate of the New Hampshire House Stefany Shaheen would have wrote in a fundraising e-mail obtained by the NHjournal.
Shaheen presents himself in a contested primary to succeed the democratic representative of New Hampshire, Chris Pappas, who is in the running to replace the mother of Shaheen, the Democratic Senator of New Hampshire, Jeanne Shaheen, in the Senate.
Shaheen did not reveal that his mother voted against a Bipartisan bill adopted at home to finance the government three times. The retired senator should vote on the measure for the fourth time on Friday.
The DCNF also examined the fundraising emails sent by the former speaker of the Nancy Pelosi Chamber and Democratic representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez de New York, Emilia Sykes of Ohio and Eugene Vindman of Virginie.
Johnson told DCNF on Thursday in an interview that the Democrats in the House had lost more credibility after voting to close the government, then immediately insist the government.
“All their existence is supervised by messaging, no matter how the false or deception,” said Johnson. “The Democrats of the Chamber are simply not taken seriously by anyone at this stage.”
Jeffries, Horsford and Kaptur did not respond to the request for DCNF comments. Stefany Shaheen did not immediately respond to the DCNF comment request.
