Shutdown Showdown highlights deeper part of democratic party
By Kristen Welker
With hours enough before a Thursday deadline, the Senate Passed a Republican Stopgap Funding Bill To open the government after the days of signs from the Democrats that a closure may develop.
The vote is 54-46, with two members of the democratic caucus who includes all but a Republican support, sent the bill of President Donald Trump for a signature. But before the last passage, the leader of the Senate minority Chuck Schumer, Dn.y., nine more Democrats helped measure a 60-vote procerural hurdle in the controlared charger.
This is the decision that has stolen deep divisions of democratic party, facing a count of how Trump responds.
The tensions were stated at the first schumer announced Thursday he voted in favor of advancing the GOP and Elon bill passing through the GOP and Elon workers
Schumer was re-transported to the Senate floor this morning and argued that government shutting only brushed trumps and musk.
“Musk told all that he wanted to shut down because he knew it would help his terrible intentions on one end of the federal government from one end,” Schumer said. “In other words, if the government needs to be shut, the doge has a place plan to take advantage of the crisis for maximum destruction.”
Trump praises the schumer in the fact, calling his notice a “excellent and smart movement” who has taken “guts and courage.” House Democratic Caucus Chaird Pete Aguilar in Cali
the reaction from the Democrats It’s so angry. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Dn.y., a leading progressive law, called Schumer’s action “and a” slap on the face. “
In a stunning step, the former speaker at home, Nancy Pelosi issued a statement calling the Democratic Senators to reject the bill, reject the Schumer. And the minority leader at home Jaffries, Dn.y., refused a press conference to answer when time is for new senile leadership.
I talked to many democratic sources, and while some were relieved to the schumer’s action, a congressional Aide told me to expect “severe” blast from the base. The Aide also noticed the Sibbiti falling on most of the generation lines, with some of the new Senate voices a schumer strategy.
Why is the backlash? AW, USA, many weak Democrats at the Trump Districts house opposing the bill earlier this week, and now they feel like a hard vote. Second, some Democrats feel as though the government’s opening is giving Trump and Musk a green light to keep their deep cut. And third, perhaps more important, many of the Party saw this fight as the best opportunity to register their opposition to Trump. The question is: If not now, when?
The stage is a real schumer leadership attempt at a critical moment when Democrats still try to find their foot. And it all promotes to have a deep part of the party about the best way to get Trump in the opening months of his second administration.
Let’s get our first real meaning of how voters reacted to all moves in our new NBC News Poll, Steve Korntacki will debate “meet the press” this Sunday. In addition, I will talk to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessens and Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn.

Pam Boni let the DOJ of Trump priorities
By Ken Dilanian
President Donald Trump’s choice of Pam Boni to become a lawyer at first invaded the sighs of some democratic circles.
Trump first choice, previously-rep. Matt Gaetz, R-flaf.
Boni was seen as a professional with deep legal experience: He served as a Florida lawyer for 16 years. He was actually serving as one of Trump’s lawyers in his first impeachment and supported conspiracy theories about 2020 elections. However the Democrats and Republicans who know he believes he is a man who stands with Trump in a way that Gaetz doesn’t like any illegal or incorrect.
But because Bondi took the Riins, justice department operates in a way of the consequences of how it runs in the Distory Mitchell jail for his or her scandal paper.
The pledge of political finishes he said happened to The Biden Administration, Bondi enforced his own political regime, critics say. The Trump administration, with Bondi assistance, appears to be able to change the department of justice to a President’s political instrument – a republican or Democrardic charge Richard Nixon.
