Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumerβs office says a bipartisan #funding deal has been reached to avoid a government #shutdown as #Senate #Republicans try to set up a Thursday vote.
The deal, according to the minority leader, includes the separation of the 5 bipartisan appropriation bills that #Democrats had asked for & a 2-week stopgap funding extension for #DHS.
Senate #GOP leadership is now taking steps to schedule a vote for Thursday night.

"a 2-week stopgap funding extension for DHS."
So #DHS / #ICE gets more money than the millions (billions?) they already have
And this will deter DHS / CBP / ICE how, exactly?
Face it: #ChuckSchumer has caved again with a "2-week stopgap funding extension for #DHS".
And I'd put anything down on the idea that by the time #Schumer's done he will have increased the DHS / ICE budget
Spineless
Completely and utterly spineless
As usual...
