I think the tariffs are bad.

Making a worse deal for a country's trade does not mean we'll get more stuff out of it.

funding for the Department of Homeland Security and these other departments, including the Department of Defense, is set to expire at midnight on Friday.

That means that without an extension of funding, those government programs would shut down.

The main question is whether Republicans are willing to strip Democrats

funding for the Department of Homeland Security out of a much larger funding package.

So far, they have not shown a willingness to do that.

And the White House has issued a statement saying that they view the ploy that Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is pursuing as tantamount to a partial shutdown.

However, I hasten to add that

that there was a major piece of legislation passed last year with Republican-only votes, Donald Trump's big, beautiful bill, and that has huge amounts of money specifically for ICE and Border Patrol and border security.

So those operations would not be harmed by a government shutdown now.

They've already been funded and funded very richly.

Hi.

Hi.

How are you?

I don't know what I was thinking.

I nearly said something then.

I was like, I don't know if I can go anywhere.

Oh, Naomi said, can that watch go underwater?

I was in the cold tub.
