Later that day, at 17:26 UTC, Grothman commented on the ongoing government shutdown, writing, "It’s now Day 14 of the Democrat shutdown.

In a post made at 21:18 UTC on October 14, he wrote, "Yesterday, we celebrated Columbus Day, a tribute to the courage and vision that led to the discovery of the New World.
