White House Agrees to Paid Parental Leave for Federal Workers, Dems Agree to Space Force
It looks like the powers that be in Washington have managed to agree on something, for a change. Dems will give President Trump his “Space Force” in exchange for three months of paid parental leave for all federal workers. Here’s the deal, via The Hill:
The White House and House Democrats have reportedly reached a tentative deal to authorize the creation of the Space Force, a priority for the Trump administration first outlined in an executive order by the president earlier this year.
The Washington Post reported Sunday that Democrats and White House negotiators had struck a bargain that would authorize the creation of the agency in exchange for a policy establishing 12 weeks of paid parental leave for federal workers.
Continued:
It isn’t clear if the plan will be able to win enough Republican support to pass the Senate, according to the Post, but the plan appears to have the backing of both President Trump and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a rare moment of compromise amid the House’s impeachment hearings.
At the end of the day, Trump was the right man for the job. He has a big mouth and he likes to use it. He won’t apologize for being brash. He doesn’t care if liberals see things his way or not. He’s determined.
He’s focused on making America a better place than she was under Barack Obama. And he’s winning.

Reactions:
The revolutionary war was fought bc of ppl like her. Ppl who want to take power away from others and give no voice is what brought us to that point.
