Senator Rick Scott just dropped a grenade on the Senate floor — and it landed exactly where it should.
A Democrat colleague, one of the same senators who voted to start this shutdown, privately complained that he 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 couldn't go without his $174,000 Senate paycheck because he has a mortgage to pay.
Scott's response: 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘵 𝘋𝘏𝘚 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰?
The average TSA agent makes around $50,000 a year. The average Democrat senator is worth nearly $3 million. And yet it's the senator who can't make ends meet?
Scott doesn't just talk. 𝗛𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿. He's not the one blocking 260,000 DHS workers from their paychecks. The Democrats are.
Day 37. TSA agents pulling 12-hour shifts. No pay. No end in sight. And the people responsible are worried about their own mortgages.
