The republican management of the Chamber held a fairly exasperating press conference Thursday morning trying to blame the closure of the Democrats.
Their spin of the day involved welcoming Democrats to have taken the government’s hostage, trying to appease the “radical on the left” corners of their party and claim that Democrats are trying to take money from rural hospitals to give free “illegal” health care. The Line on DEMS wishing to give free without free health care immigrants is withdrawn from the Democrats’ requests to extend subsidies to the affordable care law that will expire in December and restore the coverage of Medicaid which was radically cut when the Republicans adopted their “Grand, Beautiful” bill this summer. And that’s just not true.
However, the most exasperating part of the meter was the new fixing found of the Republicans on mothers who rely on federal nutrient assistance programs like WIC to feed their children – the types of social security services and programs that Democrats defend and that the Republicans have been locked up for decades.
During a call with the Republicans of the House on Wednesday, the director of the Russ management and budget office Vought warned that the money for the WIC was about to exhaust due to the closure. The subject of discussion clearly resonated with members of the Republican Conference. During today’s press briefing, republican management spoke of the nutrition program for mothers and low -income babies to more demonize Democrats, which they need to reopen the government.
“So, I ask the Democrats, do you agree with this? Do you agree with mothers unable to get milk for their children? Answer these questions, Democrats,” said the president of the House Republican Conference, Lisa McClain (R-Mi). “Because with your” no “, you vote so that mothers on WIC cannot feed their children.”
Everything is boastful and lie.
The project of republican budget of the original chamber for what would become the “big, beautiful” bill included cuttings to the WIC, which would have resulted in an assessment of $ 1.3 billion in fruit and vegetable advantage from 5.2 million women and children who participate in the program, according to an early estimate of the Center for Budget and Political Priorities. Although the WIC was ultimately not reduced in the final version of the Senate of the Trump budget bill, some of the nutritional assistance and health care programs included in the legislation made more difficult for families to access essential programs such as WIC “, according to the National WIC Association, which published a statement condemning the legislation during its adoption of the Senate in July.
“Although the WIC is not directly reduced in this package, the program does not work in a vacuum. Auxiliary eligibility for WIC is linked to participation in Medicaid and Snap,” Georgia Machell, president and chief executive officer of the National Wic Association said. “All policies that restrict access to these programs will in turn create additional obstacles to WIC registration.”

Americans blame Trump for closing
The Washington Post conducted a survey on Wednesday, sending a 1,010 Basin of Americans “national representative” to request their comments on the closure:
The post survey reveals that many more Americans blame President Donald Trump and the Congress Republicans for the closure that Democrats, although many say they are not sure. People express a moderate concern about the impact of closure at this early stage, with “somewhat concerned” the most common answer. A large majority support the call of democrats to extend federal subsidies on health insurance in general, although a little less than half support the party by demanding this if it extends the government.

Movement on the National Guard Front
Some things happened Thursday in the various challenges of the National Guard professions:
- The Trump administration used the closure to try to freeze the DC file against the occupation. DC challenged it, writing: “The courts of this circuit regularly refused government requests to remain sensitive to duration during previous keys on credits.” Justice JIA COBB rejected the request Thursday afternoon.
- The judge supervising the contestation of the occupation of Portland, which is one appointed by Obama, challenged the case at the request of the Trump administration. Justice Michael Simon wrote that although he “does not think that challenge is required under federal law or the code of conduct of American judges”, the development must remain on the questions presented by the case. The administration had underlined the comments of Simon’s wife, a democratic representative whose headquarters includes Portland parties, opposing the deployment. The case, as Trump’s chance, was then randomly reassigned to a judge he appointed.
