I've got the ying/yang thing going on.

On one hand I'm gutted that the cowardly Dems caved on they Shutdown fight.

On the other hand I'm acutely aware that it is only my enormous privilege that allows me to feel gutted by the Dems caving here. There are literally millions of people whose position of less privilege meant that they have been praying for an end to the shutdown. It feels important to acknowledge that.

Happy Holidays to these guys and thanks for your service.

I should would like more information on how those "several thousand" TSA agents were chosen. Aren't the other TSA agents who didn't get the bonus pissed? There are upwards of 50,000 TSA agents.

I mean the very best case scenario I can build here would be that that this would be some sort of weird "perfect attendance award"?

Anybody have more info on what the full story here is?
