The Senate Thursday evening struck a deal with the White House to fund the federal government. The plan, which came together after negotiations between the Trump White House and Senate Democrats, includes a two-week continuing resolution for the DHS funding bill alongside the passage of the remaining five full-year appropriations bills. The House is expected to vote on the package on Monday; House Republican leadership is reportedly maneuvering to get it passed over various right-wing objections.
That means that, after a weekend shutdown, Democrats will have two weeks to attempt to recruit Republicans to their wish list of ICE reforms. If Republicans fail to get on board, funding for DHS will expire, causing that department, but no others, to shut down. It would not halt ICE or CBP operations — both agencies have a considerable pool of money awarded by the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act that they can tap — but it would start to drain those resources.
Put another way, Democrats go into next week with a considerable amount of leverage.
Peace, safety and accountability? Ah he is there to redirect our attention from these unfortunate situations of terrorists being taken out to focus on the Somali fraud probe and Tim Walz’s accountability in it all.
Gotcha
Enquiring minds want to know; will there be any bags of money exchanged?
Donald Trump is making Charles Manson’s dream come true – and then some. Charlie wanted a race war, but he would never have imagined it would be waged by the federal government and financed by the American taxpayer.
This could be part of it. Homan being sent for damage control and to improve morale among the goons.
Bovino is a thug and has been a thug for years but got away with his antics because he worked near the border. He and his NAZI great coat have worn out their welcome with Trump.
