1h
Global stock markets rallied after U.S. senators moved to advance a measure to end the government shutdown, sending equities higher across Wall Street, Europe and Asia.
I’m not a conspiracy person but it is an odd combination of Democratic Senators caving: mainly people retiring or not up for re-election until 2028. Moreover, Democratic leadership seems to accept them breaking rank without any consequences or even serious critique… 🙄

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

Why didn’t Senate Democrats keep the government shut down until January, 2027?

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not.
This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

There’s also tariffs and ICE goons weighing down the economy. If it wasn’t for the AI bubble the size of the Death Star we’d been in recession right now
STEPHANOPOULOS: Are we starting to see a permanent impact on the economy from the shutdown?
BESSENT: It's getting worse and worse. We had a fantastic economy under Trump the last 2 Qs, and now there are estimates that growth this Q could be cut by as much as half. We could end up with shortages.

Do NOT assume vote in Senate yesterday means shutdown is over.
Even Sen. King puts odds at 10% that it'll get done.
Vote yesterday was just PROCEDURAL to move to next stage.
No guarantee Senate will approve.
And House may not approve; Johnson says they won't.
And Trump wants to end ACA subsidies.
