Show Notes

President Trump proposes a new GOP strategy to end the record-breaking 47-day partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. The plan involves using budget reconciliation to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol with a simple Senate majority, bypassing any filibuster. The proposal aims to fund most of DHS through regular bills and secure ICE and Border Patrol protection via reconciliation, preventing future Democratic cuts. The Senate could vote on the main DHS funding as early as Thursday, with reconciliation to follow. Trump aims to restore full agent strength by June 1st, avoiding further drama.
