This is a FOX News alert. A lot of work in the federal government is coming to a halt. I'm Dave Anthony. After Congress failed to provide funding by the midnight deadline, how is this good for the country? Nobody wins with a shutdown. Republican Senator Rick Scott also tells FOX he thinks Congress should not get paid like federal employees affected. And he blames Democrats for blocking the House passed bill that would have provided seven weeks of funding. What are the Democrats doing? This is a clean resolution.

Again, our top FOX News story, a government shut down in effect after Congress failed to approve new funding by the midnight deadline. Military service members again would be among the many who would not get paid. Hundreds of generals and admirals flown in from around the world got a lecture from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth at a big gathering in Quantico, Virginia. Secretary Hegseth told the commanders the newly renamed War Department will have only one main mission, preparing for war and preparing to win. Unrelenting and uncompromising in that pursuit, he also issued this warning, should our enemies choose foolishly to challenge us, they will be crushed by the violence, precision and ferocity of the War Department. The secretary also announced qualifications for all combat positions will be set at the highest male standards because this job is life or death. President Trump also spoke to the commanders, promising to always have their back.
