Thune Warns Democrats Over Russ Vought

“Senate Majority Leader John Thune isn’t endorsing the slash-and-burn campaign White House budget director Russ Vought has planned for the federal government during the pending shutdown,” Politico reports.

“But he says Democrats have no one to blame for it but themselves.”

Said Thune: “This is the risk of shutting down the government and handing the keys to Russ Vought… we don’t control what he’s going to do.”

CNN: Russ Vought’s plan to deconstruct the government was years in the making.
