Trump opposes Johnson's spending deal to avert government shutdown
"President-elect Trump on Wednesday came out against the 3-month spending stopgap introduced by House Speaker Mike Johnson to avoid a government shutdown.
Why it matters: Trump's opposition could torpedo the bill just two days before the deadline to keep the government running. He further complicated matters for GOP leadership on the Hill with a surprise demand that they raise the debt ceiling.

House Republicans spent much of Wednesday threatening to vote against the legislation, with Elon Musk leading the charge on X."
