#House passes bill to reopen government after longest #shutdown ever
The legislation now goes to #Trump to sign into #law.
The bill INCLUDES the provision allowing Senators who were investigated by the #DOJ for their alleged involvement in Trump’s effort to overturn the #2020election to sue the #US #government for $500,000.
It DOES NOT INCLUDE the #healthcare subsidies for the #ACA, nor a reversal of the GOP #Medicaid cuts Democrats wanted.
The messages are certain to inflame the debate on Capitol Hill over the #Trump admin’s handling of the #EpsteinFiles, & top ofcls’ decision to backtrack on a promise to fully release them. That issue, which has split #Republicans & alienated some of Trump’s right-wing supporters, had faded to the background as the govt #shutdown dragged on.
But the #House is set to return Wednesday to clear legislation to end the shutdown, & attention is likely to shift back to the #Epstein matter.
Well, there ya go, Rep #AdelitaGrijalva #Democrat of #Arizona has been sworn in.
She will be the 218th signature needed to force the #EpsteinFiles release vote, as long as no #Republicans defect.

And some Democrats actually voted for this?!
Deal to end #shutdown would also allow some #Republicans to sue the #US government for #Jan6 investigation
Legislation moving through #Congress that would end the longest government shutdown in US history would also allow 8 Republican senators to seek hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages for alleged privacy violations stemming from the #DOJ's investigation of the Jan 6, 2021, Capitol #insurrection.
#Senate Passes Deal to Reopen Government
The Senate, with the help of Democratic defectors, passed a bill to end the longest government #shutdown WITHOUT the #HealthInsurance subsidies #Democrats long demanded. The earliest the House will vote is Wednesday.
#Trump admin renews #SCOTUS appeal to keep full #SNAP payments frozen
The request is the latest in a flurry of legal activity over how a program that helps buy groceries for 42 million Americans should proceed during the historic US govt #shutdown. Lower courts have ruled that the govt must keep FULL payments flowing, & SCOTUS asked the admin to respond after an appeals court ruled against it again late Sunday.

BREAKING: Senate Democrats are set to cave to Republicans and reopen the government without a promise to extend ACA tax credits.
A vote could happen as soon as this evening, but the path to reopening the government will still take time.

BREAKING: Deal Nears to Reopen Federal Government as Democrats Set to Cave
Democrats are set to join Republicans to open the government despite no extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits.Aaron Parnas (The Parnas Perspective)
Trump told #states on Saturday to “immediately undo” any actions to provide full #FoodStamp benefits to #LowIncome families, threatening financial penalties if they do not comply. The late-night guidance from the #USDA adds to the uncertainty surrounding the nation’s largest anti-#hunger program during the govt #shutdown. Officials in several states said they remained unsure on Sunday how the directive would affect the roughly one in eight Americans who rely on #SNAP.
I mean...it *sounds* like a good idea. I for one could really use a check from the government right now. But how come we've never heard anything about this "plan" before? (???)

Trump’s support among voters is fading fast, but Congressional Republicans refuse to acknowledge their peril, as they succumb to nearly all of his demands.
⚡️”The gap between voters saying their vote is anti-Trump and those saying it’s pro-Trump is larger than ever.
It’s also the largest such gap since 2006.”

"Trump’s 'Gatsby' gala wasn’t homage but autopsy — a champagne-soaked dirge for a nation that once believed in class, grace, and conscience. ...
Trump, the man who once wrapped himself in the mantle of populism, threw a party mocking the very people who once believed him."
