Federal shutdown starts with spirits as furloughed employees get discounts

Nothing Really Mattis. Mexico Will Pay For This. Border Wall Banger.

Federal workers will be able to snag punnily named cocktails at one Capitol Hill bar for $5 in honor of the shutdown.

Shutdown specials are a tradition in the nation's capital, as restaurants offer discounts for furloughed federal employees, typically as long as they bring along a federal employee ID.

Capitol Lounge announced its deals Friday on its politically themed cocktails, which start along with the shutdown at 12:01 a.m. Saturday and will last until the government is funded.

Is anybody really affected by the shutdown?

My son was affected by the last shutdown, but not this one. I don't know how they pick and choose.
