The issue is caused by Democrats being angry that when they wanted emergency corporate subsidies to health companies they set them to expire in 2026, but now that it is nearly 2026, they are angry that the corporate subsidies are expiring.

The Republicans created this situation when they used the nuclear option to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill, which created the CR at the center of the current shutdown, with a simple majority of 51, meaning not even all Republican Senators voted in favor of it. They did this knowing it would lead to an eventual deadline where they would either need Democrat votes or to use the nuclear option to avoid a shutdown.
Republicans are refusing to use the nuclear option which would allow them to end the shutdown right now.
Republicans are refusing to make any concessions at all to Democrats to entice them to vote for the CR the Republicans are forcing through.
The Republican Speaker of the House is refusing to call the House into session until the shutdown ends, meaning even if Senate Republicans wanted to make concessions, they can't because they would need to be sent to the House for approval before they could be ratified.
Everything I've posted here is objectively true, and the only responses to this will either be personal attacks, deflection, or whataboutism.

Why do you people just lie about what the articles you post say? Are you assuming people just won’t check?

I hope he runs for the presidency in 2028. He seems like the last sane democrat in the world.

Next time Trump takes back a promise, he will have a stroke and be unable to speak again.
