John — we
avoided a government shutdown by the skin of our teeth. No thanks to Elon
Musk, Donald Trump, and Republicans.

Here’s a brief summary of what has transpired — and who is responsible for
this disaster:

GOP Congressional leaders delayed putting together a budget (in this case,
a continuing resolution) to keep the government open — because they know
their own party members can’t agree among themselves.

In the 11th hour, Speaker Mike Johnson finally agreed to a bipartisan deal
to keep the government open for a few more months.

Then, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy immediately threw this agreement out
the window. They started fanning the flames — even before Donald Trump
spoke out — and Republicans started doing what they always do — falling in
line. (Unsurprisingly, Elon Musk tanked the bipartisan bill that had
disaster aid, while supporting the defense bill with all the billions for
his company, SpaceX. He suggested no cuts there.)

Donald Trump then stepped in with the following threat: “Any Republican
that would be so stupid as to [pass a clean Continuing Resolution] should,
and will, be Primaried.”

It’s an absolute mess,
John. The circus is back in town
— early.

If you’re the world’s richest man like Musk, I guess it doesn’t bother you
too much when ordinary people don’t get paid and services shut down. But
average families would have been the ones to suffer the consequences.

Luckily, Speaker Johnson and Republicans capitulated under another
last-minute deal and we avoided the shutdown — for now. Speaker Johnson
can thank House Democrats for helping put the country before partisan
politics.

But this is just the beginning. We can expect even more drama and chaos
from Republican leaders over the next two years, especially as Elon Musk
governs by tweet. That’s why, as much as I will be focused on keeping the
government open and functioning for us all, I will also be working to flip
control of the Senate and the House from red to blue.

order to our government? Any amount will help me and my team support
Democrats over the coming years as we work to take back control of
Congress.
