The Department of Housing and Urban Development is displaying a disclaimer attacking "the radical left" and blaming the shutdown on them.

"The radical left is going to shut down the government and inflict massive pain on the American people unless they get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands. The Trump administration wants to keep the government open for the American people," the message on the HUD website reads.

Republicans have control of the House, Senate and White House and can pass a debt ceiling increase without the votes of Democrats.

Speaking to MSNBC about the matter, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) called the move on a government website "out of control."

It's "stunning," she said. "And if you look at the bigoted, outrageous fake, AI post that the president of the United States posted yesterday about our Democratic leaders you get a sense of how out of control this administration is, these Republicans are, and it is exactly why we have to fight back. We can't allow them to continue to do this.

"They are abusing every executive power that has been given, and Republicans in Congress have to stand up and fight for their constituents. You know, I've got 14 rural hospitals in Washington State that are already slated to close."

She noted that a mother with two children who have autism will lose her access to Medicaid thanks to the budget the GOP passed. So, part of the debate is that Democrats will agree to help Republicans if Republicans eliminate the Medicaid cuts and bring back the healthcare subsidies called for in the Affordable Care Act.

"And I think that the fact that [Speaker] Mike Johnson (R-LA) sent all the Republicans home should tell you everything you need to know. They don't believe in bipartisanship. They don't understand that they need some votes, at least in the Senate, if not in the House, to be able to do anything and govern. And so a shutdown is on them, not on us. But it is a travesty that this is what the White House is doing and how they're using their platform."
