😬 The U.S. government shutdown hit day six on Monday, and things are stuck in limbo as key talks over healthcare funding stall.
Democrats are accusing the White House of going "radio silent," claiming they've heard nothing from the administration as federal services remain partially suspended. It's like a game of high-stakes chicken 🏛️—no one wants to blink first.
President Donald Trump has said he's open to a healthcare deal, but so far, neither Republicans nor Democrats have been able to rally enough support in the Senate. Both parties' bills to reopen the government failed in the upper chamber this weekend, prolonging the shutdown.
With federal offices still closed and millions of workers facing uncertainty, many are wondering: will lawmakers find a breakthrough, or is this stalemate here to stay? Stay tuned—this story is far from over! 🤔
