With federal funding set to expire at 12:01 a.m. Saturday, the Senate’s stopgap plan—stripping DHS funding and extending it for two weeks—has stalled, leaving a shutdown increasingly likely. Although Senate leaders reached a tentative bipartisan framework, opposition from key Republicans and the House’s absence until Monday mean even a successful Senate vote today won’t prevent at least a brief lapse in funding.

CLOCKS TICKING: Shutdown Looms as Senate Deal Stalls and House Remains Away

Fresno County Supervisor Garry Bredefeld is challenging a local coalition’s push for a renewed transportation sales tax, criticizing the proposed Measure C replacement for shifting too much funding toward transit and local roads rather than regional projects. While community groups argue their plan reflects broad public input and prioritizes equitable mobility, Supervisor Bredefeld and others contend the proposal is unrealistic and fails to address longstanding regional infrastructure needs. The conflict sets up a high‑stakes showdown as organizers race to qualify the measure for the 2026 ballot.

President Trump is pushing back on claims he nodded off during a December cabinet meeting, insisting he only closed his eyes because the marathon session “got pretty boring.” In remarks at Thursday’s follow‑up meeting, he joked that he was wide awake and simply eager to leave. “I didn’t sleep—I just closed them because I wanted to get the hell out of here,” he said.

TRUMP CABINET MEETING: Says He Didn’t Snooze — the Meeting Was Just ‘Pretty Boring’

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/a7b0bd27-d748-4fbe-ab3b-a6fa0049bcf6/clips/1f87214b-ac34-4597-9706-b3e201319fb6/transcript

President Trump has nominated former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair, marking a dramatic shift in leadership after months of publicly pressuring Powell over interest rates. Warsh, known for his hawkish roots but recent support for lower rates, is expected to face a tough Senate confirmation amid concerns over Fed independence and an ongoing DOJ probe into Powell.
