The White House and Senate Democratic leaders continued to trade offers and kept the details of negotiations private, signaling some hope — but no guarantee of an agreement.
Department of Homeland Security is poised to shut down this weekend as Congress remained deadlocked Thursday on a path forward before leaving town for a weeklong holiday break.
The White House and Democratic leaders have continued to trade offers, signaling some hope for an agreement. But it remains unclear which Democratic demands the White House will agree to when it comes to slapping restraints on immigration enforcement after federal agents killed two American citizens in Minnesota.
With Congress out of town, DHS will shut down beginning at 12:01 a.m. Saturday. That means that federal employees at agencies such as FEMA, the Transportation Security Administration and the Coast Guard won’t be paid, though most of them will continue showing up for work because their jobs are considered critical.
It sucks that FEMA and CISA are getting starved out while ICE is flush, but hell, maybe no part of the gov should be funded while the pestilence of this ‘administration’ is perverting nearly every ideal we thought we had
The Coast Guard is the hardest pill to swallow. The TSA mainly harass and profile people and FEMA pretty much only responds to issues in red states these days so good riddance to them.
There the problem with turning every agency into partisan bullshit, it suddenly becomes pretty easy to just defund them because they weren’t benefiting you anyways.
They’ve been systematically deconstructing all the excuses used by corporate Democrats to justify why they need to keep the system moving even though they totally oppose [insert current controversial spending]. All that stuff wasn’t an accident. It was designed that way and the regime just threw it away because they’re too dumb to recognize that it was helping them.
Just impeach Trump and all the treasonous Republicans
Unless they are removed from office it’ll be theatrical.
