Democratic leaders abruptly pulled out of a planned meeting at the White House with President Trump after he tweeted earlier Tuesday that he didn't "see a deal" to avoid a government shutdown.
"Given that the President doesnt see a deal between Democrats and the White House, we believe the best path forward is to continue negotiating with our Republican counterparts in Congress instead," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said in a joint statement.
"Rather than going to the White House for a show meeting that wont result in an agreement, weve asked Leader McConnell and Speaker Ryan to meet this afternoon. We dont have any time to waste in addressing the issues that confront us, so were going to continue to negotiate with Republican leaders who may be interested in reaching a bipartisan agreement," Pelosi and Schumer added.
Democrats are pushing to include a long-term fix for allowing young undocumented immigrants to remain in the country in a year-end government spending package.

(47,488 posts)have the pukes ever paid a price for previous shutdowns? All predicated on their idiocy? I don't think so, although in a just world of course they would.
