US Loses $14bn, Schiff Roasts Illegal LA Attorney Drama
In an epic episode of The Budget Office Chronicles, the US faces a potential $14 billion GDP loss thanks to a stubborn shutdownâyes, that government pause where finances ghost you harder than your ex. Meanwhile, Obamacare insurance is set to leap by 26% next year because who doesn't want a surprise bill jump? Over in sunny Los Angeles, Senator Adam Schiff flexed his keyboard fingers on X (formerly Twitter, for you digital dinosaurs) calling out acting US attorney Bill Essayli for crime-of-position: way illegal but still chilling at his desk. Schiff thundered against the administration's 'illegitimate political allies' doing Trump's bidding, telling everyone to maybe, just maybe, read the Constitution once before printing headlines. Classic political soap opera mixed with financial disaster, served with California vibes on October 29, 2025.

Nothing says constitutional respect like illegally sitting a US attorney in LA, while the country burns $14bn in a shutdown and Obamacare prices jump 26%. Somehow this mess is also a 'professional replacement program.'
If losing $14bn in GDP was an Olympic sport, the US shutdown would be breaking records while illegally appointed attorneys take home participation trophies.
Obamacare insurance prices are jumping 26% next year but donât worry, because Schiff says bill-illegality is the new career professional. Constitutional crisis or political reality TV? You decide.
