Time is running out: Government shutdown deadline looms

Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reports on the latest on the possibility of a government shutdown on 'Special Report.'
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Nearly two-thirds of American voters say that the Democrats in Congress shouldn't force a federal government shutdown if their demands are not met, according to a new national poll.

But a New York Times/Siena poll also indicates that voters would blame Republicans and President Donald Trump, as well as Democrats, if the government shuts down at midnight Tuesday.

Currently, there's no indication either Trump and the Republican majority in Congress or congressional Democrats are willing to lower the temperature, with both political parties at odds over a temporary short-term spending plan to avoid the shutdown.


Democrats are insisting that any agreement to prevent a government shutdown must extend tax credits for the popular Affordable Care Act (ACA) beyond the end of this year. Those credits, which millions of Americans rely on to reduce the costs of healthcare plans under the ACA, which was once known as Obamacare, are set to expire unless Congress acts.
It's funny watching so-called conservatives like Earl support the biggest spending bill in world history.

SO THIS IS IT???

THIS IS IT???

GOOD GRIEF, WHO WOULDA THUNK IT WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

(I MEAN...OTHER THAN THE MAGA morons.)
 
lol like you left wing vermin are all about free speech n stuff. Kiss off, gimp; nobody buys your fake outrage.
Yes, after all your handwringing over Jimmy Kimmel it's ME with the "fake outrage"? Please trumptard - your hypocrisy is showing again.
 
Then we can all deduce you are just as demented as Mr. Tiny Penis, and you have seen what path that took him down.
You can "deduce" was it? That I'm the demented one while it's you who runs away from questions - like the one I asked you yesterday about ICE tricking the married couple, but that's ok.

You call me "demented" while showing zero intelligence nor courage of your convictions. So run away again, Lyin-Feesh. It's what you do.

I believe I answered your question with "Illegal is illegal".
If not, "Illegal is illegal."
 
FOX????????? come on.
The DEMS are NOT shutting down the government so they can fund healthcare for ILLEGALS, As I told TOP so far the right wingers on here have only been able to put up ONE link saying they are and I have put up many showing they are NOT.
Not Fox, but the Vice President of the United States. Bill in hand.

No. That wasn't the question. I'll ask you one more time, and you'll probably run away like a little bitch again but what the heck, perhaps you'll surprise me.

The question was: Are you ok with what ICE did to that couple?
 
No. That wasn't the question. I'll ask you one more time, and you'll probably run away like a little bitch again but what the heck, perhaps you'll surprise me.

The question was: Are you ok with what ICE did to that couple?
On its face, not my cup of tea but I dubt we have the complete story. That said, illegal is illegal. Omar has ways around this.

EEEEEEEHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ? Pretty faint disapproval, but, Ok. I'll take it. You don't like it if it's true but doubt it is. That's fair. Good job!
 
lol. I'm betting someone got this meme from a republican saying the same BS when the republicans wouldn't vote for cloture and the government closed temporarily.

If the democrats use the filibuster and refuse cloture votes they are the ones ending debate and causing the closure.
Parroting the party line!
