YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The House and Senate pass another temporary federal government funding extension – a Continuing Resolution, or CR – preventing a partial shutdown starting Friday night and giving lawmakers more time to write and pass the regular 12 spending bills now that Congressional Republicans and Democrats and President Joe Biden have agreed on a topline spending amount.

But a good number of Republicans in both chambers voted 'no' on the CR, objecting the spending levels and to not being able to attach immigration and border security changes to the bill.

He also contrasted his Bidenomics agenda, on which he is running for reelection, with that of Donald Trump, the current frontrunner for the 2024 republican presidential nomination.

Two Democratic presidential challengers to President Biden campaign in New Hampshire ahead of next Tuesday primary – Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) and author Marianne Williamson.

Attorney General Merrick Garland in Uvalde, Texas releases the Justice Dept report on the law enforcement response to the elementary mass shooting in 2022, identifying what the report calls 'cascading failures' that led to people dying.
