DoD Civilians Back At Work

83 words.

Something else I missed: Chuck Hagel put almost all of the DoD civilians back to work, thanks to “a liberal interpretation” of the post-shutdown bill that was meant to pay the military. So yeah, that was a big part of the shutdown right there. I’m starting to wonder if House Republicans might actually get away with this, because this seems like a huge win for them. Why would they care if a bunch of entitlement programs are the only things left shut down?
