The bill funds most DHS operations except for ICE and parts of Border Patrol, which is setting up the next fight in Washington.

Trump told Fox News today that the Senate deal, quote, wasn't good, it wasn't appropriate, and called on the Senate to end the filibuster.

And House Speaker Mike Johnson wants a temporary funding solution to May 22nd instead.

In addition to these possible changes, Tennessee Republican Representative Andy Ogles suggested that the House attach a voter ID provision to the bill.

a response to the Senate's inability to pass Trump's favored Save America Act.

The problem for the House is that the Senate left for a two-week Easter recess right after the vote, which means that any changes made in the House could drag out the shutdown even longer.

I think we're doing very well.

Right.

Well, this is a pretty remarkable shakeup, even in the context of the last few years.

The Post announced Saturday that the publisher, Will Lewis, is out.

He wrote a short note to staff in which he said all changes he'd helped to make were intended to ensure a sustainable future for the outlet.

He also made a point of praising Jeff Bezos, who is being slammed right and left by many of the fired employees.

Bezos has been hammering the same sustainability message and framing this moment as an extraordinary opportunity to fulfill the Post's essential journalistic mission.

He said, I quote,

The data tells us what is valuable and where to focus.

So the sweeping cuts, as Georgia said, about 30% of the staff, some 300 employees, he says is being decided by data.

And so appropriately, in some ways, the man who is stepping up to fill the role of publisher for now is the chief financial officer, Jeff D'Onofrio.

Exactly.

So again, roughly 300 people were let go and in the areas that leadership says were simply not profitable.

Executives say that the outlet has just failed to adapt to a changing media landscape and must make tough decisions to stay relevant and competitive.
