YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWatch Joe and Kailey LIVE every day on YouTube().
Senate Democrats on Friday rejected a Republican spending bill in a vote that will almost certainly push the US government shutdown into next week as the party stands firm in the face of President Donald Trump’s threats to fire thousands of federal workers and extract political revenge.
With the two sides locked in a standoff that raises the prospects of lengthy furloughs and a prolonged disruption in government services, senators left Washington for the weekend. Across the Capitol, Speaker Mike Johnson indicated that House lawmakers, who have been home in their districts, may not return as planned next week if the Senate remains deadlocked.
