Reading the tea leaves.

Also, reports earlier today from the Senate Democrat caucus, they could hear Senator Gillibrand screaming through closed doors to not shut down the government.

...

However, only one day before government funding lapses, Schumer is relenting to reality — Trump and Republicans hold all the cards, and Democrats have a lot to lose by gambling with shutdown politics.

The Hill reports that Senate Democrats are giving private assurances they will not allow a government shutdown, despite the activist wing with its growing chokehold over the party demanding further resistance to Trump.

I can only hope Up Chuck Schumer doesnt go along and the government shuts down. Yeah, all bills will be paid, but the Non Essential Personnel (not necessary) would be sent home again, and this would give DOGE the right to pink slip every one of them. Come on Chuckie show some backbone and shut the government down, i double dog dare ya.
