Nice. You got nine out of a lot. Not too bad. Keep practicing by visiting Wayfair.com where you you can shop every style for every home. Wayfair Every style every home. Great work. Magamike Johnson it seems that the government is going to have yet another shutdown because Magamike sent the House of Representatives home for a vacation. And even though the Senate appears poised to enter into a horrible compromise to keep the government opened in order to pass this appropriations bill, which I'll talk about in a second because there are some alterations to the House Appropriations bill, the Senate bill has to get sent back to the House where they have to pass an identical copy of the Senate bill. But guess what? MAGA Mike's been too busy partying with Nicki Minaj and doing other things that have nothing to do with the American people that the House of Representatives is no LONGER In Washington D.C. they are on vacation yet again. So let's talk about what's going down now. MAGA Mike says, by the way, and he's going to call the House back and they're going to try to make it by Sunday, but lots of people are saying we can't make it back by Sunday. So I think the earliest day vote is going to take place on this compromise, which I'll talk about in a moment because I do not like this compromise would be putting it lightly. In fact, I despise it. But in any event, people won't get back Sunday or Monday and a shutdown will take place Saturday at 12:00am so here, here's what we believe is happening right now, that Senate GOP leaders have hotlined, as Andrew Desiderio says, have hotlined a new funding agreement. Five funding bills paired with a two week CR continuing resolution for the Department of Homeland Security. Amendment requests are now rolling in. So what does that mean? What MAGA Mike tried to do is do this minibus that put all of these different department fundings together in one, including the Department of Homeland Security which has additional funding for ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo. What the Senate said because the Democrats were opposing and rejecting additional funding to ICE and Border Patrol is let's remove the Department of Homeland Security funding in total. Since the Democrats opposed that, let's pass the five appropriations bills that don't involve Department of Homeland Security. So those five get passed, excise those, pass those, then separately do what's called a continuing resolution regarding the Department of Homeland Security just for a two week period so the rest gets passed and is funded for the appropriate period of time. The dhs, which funds Border Patrol and ice, that just gets funded for two more weeks while then the Democrats say we're going to in the Senate, Schumer and all the other people say then we're going to negotiate for the things that we want to do with respect to ICE and Border Patrol that you have to get rid of the masks of, of the Border Patrol agents and they have to wear body cams and better training in my view. You can't compromise with authoritarians. ICE and Border Patrol need to be abolished. The individuals who have been terrorizing and torturing communities need to be prosecuted at the level of Trump appointees and officials. They need to be impeached and prosecuted. So I don't want to see any compromising at all. But now that a compromise is going to happen and it's going to be a two week extension of dhs, which means Border Patrol and ICE get funded for another two weeks, I, I think they shouldn't be funded for another fricking day if you ask me. But now it goes to the House. But the House is nowhere to be found and now you have MAGA Republicans in the House like Anna Paulina, Luna and others saying every single appropriations bill that is voted out of the House and sent back to the Senate must have what they're calling the SAVE act attached to it, which basically is the plan to federalize the elections in the midterms in order to manipulate it is what the MAGA Republicans want to do. As Jake Sherman says, this is going to be a problem with DHS coming back to the House which is why the GOP leadership is so concerned. There are going to be many asks now because what's expected. Although I'm sure Donald Trump will call up Anna Paulina, Luna and others people and say don't do it. You have to listen to Donald, listen to what I say and then they'll fold. But we'll see what happens in the House. But it seems like there's going to be some issues in the House. So the shutdown to be clear, takes place Saturday 1201am basically at midnight on Friday we are in a shutdown. The House isn't going to be able to make it back on Friday. So here's what we know is happening. Jake Sherman reports the House Republican leadership is considering trying to bring the House back on Sunday if the Senate clears the six bills tonight. Unclear if they will be able to, but they'll have to make a decision very soon. They're getting members back will be tough Houses back Monday either way. So we'll have this shutdown for a day, two days, maybe three days or maybe more. Andrew Solander writes Liberal groups already broadcasting opposition to the Schumer deal move on spokesperson Britt Jack of it who I know well we had the move on folks to talk about the no Kings protest yesterday. Brit says the following leader Schumer should ask the Minnesotans who are watching their neighbors get killed in cold blood if a deal with no plan to stop ICE is enough right now. You think we want to do a deal with ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo right now? Literally a paramilitary group? There's no negotiating in good faith with these people at all and they're not going to agree to any compromises. They're Gestapo, their ss, they're paramilitary. What do you think they're going to do?
