I awaken this morning to see that the federal govt is shut down. Whatever that means. I checked my account and see that my DFAS deposit hit the bank. That's good, I can pay the light bill this month.
I understand that the federal parks are closed, but I didn't plan on visiting one anyway. Other than that, I'm not really sure how a federal shutdown affects much of anything.
With Pete changing the name to the War Department, I wonder if the Defense Finance and Accounting Service is going to change its name?
SHOCKING: Democrats quietly plan a “Napa Retreat,” two-day getaway (Oct. 13-14) at the five-star Hotel Yountville, with an evening wine tour and dinner at Staglin Family Vineyards’ wine caves, as the government braces for a shutdown tonight, per Politico.

Heh. Hadn't thought about a DFAS name changing. Would be hard to adjust to "WFAS" in my checkbook every month.
ReplyDeleteA formal name change requires Congressional approval.
ReplyDeleteMy understanding is that Trump is allowing it as an alternate title for Hegseth and certain department activities.
