House-Senate GOP tension rises as shutdown fears grip Capitol

GOP Sen. Mitt Romney thinks a government shutdown is “very likely,” citing the House for his pessimism.

Senate GOP Whip John Thune says that House Republicans are going to have to show “some movement” in the impasse.

And Republican Sen. Shelley Moore Capito thinks the House GOP shouldn’t have abandoned a bipartisan deal that Speaker Kevin McCarthy reached with the White House that was meant to make it easier to fund the government and avoid their current predicament.

“When you make a deal, I think you should stick to the deal,” Capito told CNN.

Let's hope there are enough House Republicans from districts that voted for Biden to overcome the Free Dumb Caucus.

Trump thinks this will hose up cases against him. If magas in the house scream, shout and holler and shut the government down the next gop president may not yet be born.
