Ridgewood NJ, Congress has averted a shutdown with just hours to spare, capping a dramatic day that started with a lapse in government funding appearing all but inevitable.
The Senate voted 88-9 to pass a “clean” continuing resolution (CR) that funds the government at current levels through Nov. 17 and gives the Biden administration $16 billion it requested to assist victims of natural disasters. The House had earlier passed the measure in a bipartisan 335-91 vote. But a majority of voters think securing the border should be part of the deal.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 63% of Likely U.S. voters support a proposal to include in the spending bill a measure to secure the U.S. border against illegal immigration, including 43% who Strongly Support it. Twenty-nine percent (29%) oppose making border security part of the negotiations for a new spending bill, including 16% who Strongly Oppose it. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

This was President Biden‘s second big mistake, this should’ve been addressed immediately, he failed big time on this one. This is why the country needs to have Trump back in. It doesn’t matter if you like him or not, he will be good for the country and the story. Things need to be fixed.
What? You don’t 18% inflation…?
