U.S. Government shutdown looms: What's next?
The United States is on the brink of a federal government shutdown after the Senate failed to pass a critical funding bill before the end of the fiscal year. A stopgap measure proposed by House Republicans collapsed in the Senate without enough Democratic support, leaving key operations and public services at risk. President Donald Trump escalated tensions with a controversial AI-generated video mocking Democratic leaders, while also threatening mass public sector layoffs. Democrats, meanwhile, are demanding the restoration of healthcare spending and social protections that have been slashed under Trump’s second term.
