Several Democrats Side With Republicans to Pass Deal Ending Longest US Shutdown

The US Senate has passed a deal aimed at ending the longest government shutdown in American history, after a group of Democratic lawmakers reached an agreement with Republicans. The compromise legislation, which still needs House approval, will temporarily fund government programs through January, with the shutdown reaching 40 days. Some high-profile Democrats are upset that colleagues sided with Trump’s Republicans, deepening divisions in the party. The shutdown impacted around 1.4 million federal workers and disrupted services, including food aid and airport operations—over 10,000 flights were delayed on Sunday due to staffing shortages. Seven Democratic senators and one independent crossed the aisle, including Catherine Cortez Masto (Nevada), Dick Durbin (Illinois), John Fetterman (Pennsylvania), Maggie Hassan (New Hampshire), Tim Kaine (Virginia), Angus King (Maine, independent), Jacky Rosen (Nevada), and Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire). Only one Republican, Rand Paul (Kentucky), voted against, citing […]

US Judge Blocks Trump’s Mass Layoffs During Shutdown

A US judge has issued a temporary order blocking the Trump administration from carrying out mass layoffs of federal workers during the ongoing government shutdown. The ruling came after the White House announced plans to fire over 10,000 employees. Judge Susan Illston granted the restraining order in response to a lawsuit from labor unions, which argued the layoffs were illegal and that workers couldn't properly respond because official notices were sent to inaccessible government email accounts. The administration had already terminated over 4,000 workers last Friday. The shutdown, now in its third week, has left an estimated 1.4 million federal employees either working without pay or on forced unpaid leave. The political standoff in Congress continues, with the Senate failing for the ninth time to pass a funding bill to reopen the government.

US Shutdown Causes Flight Delays, Unpaid Workers

The ongoing US government shutdown is causing significant travel disruptions and financial stress for federal workers, with no immediate end in sight. Airports across the country are experiencing increased flight delays due to staffing shortages. Air traffic controllers, who are required to work without pay, have been calling in sick at higher rates, leading to safety-related slowdowns at major hubs. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy acknowledged a "rebellion" by controllers who are stressed about putting "food on the table." Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of federal employees are furloughed or working without pay. Capitol Police are set to miss their first paycheck this Friday, with a larger wave of 1.3 million active-duty military personnel due to be unpaid next Wednesday. Senate Democrats have repeatedly blocked a Republican-backed funding bill, prolonging the political standoff.

US Government Shuts Down After Budget Talks Collapse Between Trump, Congress

The US government officially shut down early Wednesday after President Donald Trump and Congress failed to reach a deal on federal funding, triggering widespread disruptions that will affect hundreds of thousands of workers and millions of Americans who rely on public services. The shutdown began at 12:01 am (0401 GMT) following the Senate’s rejection of a short-term funding measure already passed by the House of Representatives. At the heart of the deadlock are Democratic demands for increased health care funding, particularly for the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), which the Trump administration has moved to dismantle. Trump Blames Democrats Trump placed the blame squarely on his opponents, threatening further cuts aimed at progressive priorities. “So we’d be laying off a lot of people that are going to be very affected. And they’re Democrats, they’re going to be Democrats,” Trump said from […]

White House orders US agencies to prepare for mass sack ahead of possible shutdown

The White House has directed federal agencies to prepare for large-scale staff cuts if the US government shuts down next week, according to a memo from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) obtained by Politico. The document, circulated on Wednesday, indicated that President Donald Trump’s administration may go beyond the usual temporary furloughs seen in previous shutdowns. Instead, agencies were instructed to draw up staff reduction plans and notify employees in programs not legally mandated to continue. “Programs that did not benefit from an infusion of mandatory appropriations will bear the brunt of a shutdown,” the memo said. The warning comes as the Trump administration clashes with congressional Democrats over funding ahead of a looming Sept. 30 fiscal deadline. Last week, Senate Democrats rejected a stopgap funding bill hurriedly passed by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives. In response, Trump […]
