Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.The House has passed a pair of funding measures to avert a government shutdown on Tuesday, voting across party lines detailing roughly $1.4 trillion in government funding ahead of the Friday deadline.
The spending package -- consisting of two separate spending bills and thousands of pages of legislative text -- was introduced on Monday, and includes a boost on domestic spending backed by Democrats while also upping military spending. It also includes an increase in funding for President Donald Trump's border wall and largely keeps the status quo on the administration's immigration priorities -- which led a small group of Democrats to oppose the measure containing Department of Homeland Security funding.A portion of the wall on the US-Mexico border seen from Chihuahua State in Mexico, Aug. 28, 2019.
I would like to congratulate the president of not extorting anyone to make it happen.
Trump is slipping -- he's not gonna shut down the government to get his Wall? Oh right, he tried that, it didn't work. So now he loots the Pentagon's piggy bank to pretend he can build the wall -- until SCOTUS shuts him down.
Yep. We can BUILD Jordan a wall to protect t thier border in this bill but not America. Got to love open border demoRats. Protect other people but not our own citizens. Trump should veto it until wall is funded. shutitdown

House committee takes up articles of impeachment for first timeTuesday morning, the House Rules Committee will take up articles of impeachment for the first time to consider the procedures that will govern tomorrow's full House vote. So they decided to gather to make more stuff up - add some heavy legal lingo and wrap it in a redacted Constitution. As a Democrat I am appalled by this blatant partisanship.
