Show Notes
As the partial government shutdown enters its thirty-first day, the Senate prepares to vote on a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security. The bill, House bill seven one four seven, needs sixty votes to pass amid ongoing partisan clashes. TSA staffing shortages are worsening, leading to long security lines and doubled callouts, just as spring break travel and winter storms increase. Democrats are blocking the bill over concerns with ICE operations, while gas prices climb due to Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz. The shutdown is nearing the second-longest in history, with betting markets predicting it will drag past Easter into mid-April.
