A Border Patrol Agent Who Has To Work Without Pay Wants You To Stop Saying The Shutdown Is No Big Deal

I got an email Thursday evening from Erik Finkelnburg, a Customs and Border Patrol agent based in southern California.

He’s sick of hearing people say the government shutdown isn’t a big deal because 85% of government employees are still at work — a “government slimdown,” as Fox News has called it.

Like about 1.5 million federal civilian employees, Finkelnburg is among that 85% because he’s “essential” to the protection of life and property. But until the shutdown is resolved, he won’t get paid for any work he’s performed after Sept. 30.

  I think the Bush criminal cabal doesn't like us. I know they are working with and for The City of London, in drug trafficking to Wall Street looting. That is why 'The Holder' is holding open the door to allow the Bush cabal to exit without receiving justice.

The CDC is basically closed right now. They are no longer tracking infectious disease. In fact their offices are CLOSED. I feel like this is an exercise in collapse scenario. We are being primed and conditioned for the collapse of society.

Odds are this poor sap isn't getting paid period, I still think these pricks are lying thru their evil rotten dental work and hiding the fact they're worse off than they say.

My sentiment, James! That's what ya get when you work for the government, the corrupt government, rogue government. I'd love to see something happen that the government is NOT expecting, and that for sheeple to be calling for Obomba-care and raising the debt ceiling. Lagarde needs to stop spending somuch time on her yacht, her tanned skin is turning leathery.

good, keep it shut , these people are part of the machine and rarely suffer from the consequences of their government employer. Time to feel the pain pal. the rest of us have had.

I don't know of anyone around here who has said "it is no big deal."

I am sure it is for him.....he needs to write, call, fax his representative.
