Developing now, Monday, Jan. 21, 2019 - Martin Luther King Day: "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
'WE WILL WIN BIG': With the partial government shutdown approaching the one-month mark, President Trump on Sunday night thanked federal workers facing another pay period without a paycheck and vowed to be victorious in the battle with Democrats over the border crisis ... "To all of the great people who are working so hard for your Country and not getting paid I say, THANK YOU - YOU ARE GREAT PATRIOTS!," Trump tweeted. "We must now work together, after decades of abuse, to finally fix the Humanitarian, Criminal & Drug Crisis at our Border. WE WILL WIN BIG!"
Both sides appear to be as far apart as ever on the battle for funding over the president's proposed border wall, despite Trump’s compromise offer Saturday. The president proposed temporarily extending protections for young immigrants brought to the country illegally as children and those fleeing disaster zones in exchange for $5.7 billion for his border wall. But Democrats rejected the offer, saying it didn’t go nearly far enough. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has agreed to bring up legislation this week based on Trump's proposal. Democrats say there’s little chance the measure will reach the 60-vote threshold usually required to advance legislation in the Senate.
