Yeah, so with all this going on, a group of senators who are pretty closely aligned with the president, people like Senator Katie Britt from Alabama and Bernie Moreno of Ohio—
Lindsey Graham, they go to the White House on Monday to try and convince the president that he should be more open to this deal that they've pitched.
And they managed to convince him to at least hear them out.
And so now things are back on.
And while that sounds really positive, as of right now...
I just want to be clear, the two sides are still really far apart.
Republicans sent a deal, like they said, we're going to fund everything except for immigration enforcement.
But that deal doesn't have any of the new restrictions that Democrats said that they needed in order to agree to fund the rest of the department.
And so Democrats sent their version of the deal, which doesn't actually look that different from the first version that they sent five weeks ago when we started this.
It has all their demands on immigration enforcement.
It has all these requests that they've made at the White House and things that they said the White House already agreed to that Republicans are suddenly pulling from their offer.
So right now, we're in the middle of a heated negotiation with a lot of back and forth.
And I think when you're talking about Congress, it's kind of important to remember two things.
There's the paper.
There's the text.
There's the thing that's being exchanged.
And then for lack of a better word, there's the vibes.
And so right now, both sides are saying, well, we don't really have a deal.
They're not agreeing.
They're not agreeing.
