Mollie Tibbetts’ mother has taken an undocumented immigrant into her home in the wake of her daughter’s killing – Chicago Tribune

The letters began immediately. Dozens at first, then hundreds, each day bringing more: from a Texas man telling her this was why we needed to build the wall. From a New York television producer asking for an interview. From an elderly woman despairing “this divided America in which we now live.” Nearly every day since her daughter’s body was found, she had opened the mailbox, then sat and read them, because that was her routine, that was how she tried to make sense of something so senseless. But now the mailbox was empty for the first time, and she had a new routine.

Laura Calderwood, whose daughter, Mollie Tibbetts, 20, was allegedly murdered by an undocumented immigrant and left to rot in a cornfield this past summer, closed the mailbox, walked up the steps to her house and turned on the stove. It was getting on toward 6, and she needed to get dinner going. The boys would be hungry.

There were two inside the house now. One was her son, Mollie’s younger brother, a high school senior named Scott. And the other was his friend, a courteous teenager named Ulises Felix. He was the child of Mexican immigrants. For years, his parents had lived and worked beside the man accused of killing her daughter at the same dairy farm on the other side of town, which they fled after his arrest, leaving behind not only Brooklyn, where they’d been for nearly a decade, but also Ulises, their 17-year-old son. He’d wanted to finish high school in the only town he’d ever known, and soon, remarkably, he had a new home – the home of Mollie Tibbetts – where Laura had promised to look after him in his parents’ absence.

She flipped on the television.

The news that day was what the news was every day in a country where the central political clash no longer revolved around a choice between candidates, or a question of big government vs. small, but rather an elemental battle over who gets to be an American. Should any immigrant – regardless of race, religion, nationality or circumstance – have that chance? Or should it be reserved for the few who might more quickly assimilate into the American majority?

Today, on the news, President Donald Trump was again making clear where he stood. Birthright citizenship was “ridiculous.” The caravan of Central American migrants marching through Mexico toward the United States was an “invasion.” In their numbers were “many gang members.”

And today, Laura was standing at a countertop cluttered with the letters from strangers who found her address online, in a kitchen heaped with hundreds more, dropping shredded rotisserie chicken and noodles into a pot of boiling water, when the front door opened.

“Uli?” she called.

“Yeah?” he replied, coming into the kitchen, hair dyed blond and wearing white sneakers.

“Are you hungry now?” Laura asked. “I’ve got homemade chicken soup and some garlic bread.”

She brought him a bowl of soup, and he took it, and they stood there for a moment.

“There’s some more if you want,” she said.

“Thank you,” he said, eyes going from the dinner table to his nearby bedroom, then back to the dinner table. He turned to walk with the bowl to his room, where he would eat alone on his bed, but Laura stopped him. Scott was downstairs. She was about to eat alone, too.

“Eat out here, if you want, Uli,” she offered, so he came back. They both sat at the table, as opinions of the caravan and immigration seesawed on the television.

“. . . we simply cannot tolerate the continued invasion of this country . . . ” a voice on the news program said.

They discussed his excitement about playing basketball that season, and little else, two people from two different Americas – one an immigrant, the other a native – whose lives were upended by the same moment of violence and then plunged into the center of another divisive national debate about immigration.

“. . . sending close to 5,000 troops to the border . . .”

Two people who were, each in their own way, mourning the loss of family members, with little in common beyond raw need. Two people now trying to translate this unspoken need into somethingfamilial, an effort increasingly complicated by their separate connections to the alleged killer, Cristhian Bahena Rivera.

Ulises stood. He took his empty bowl to the sink. He washed it, put it away quietly, then returned to his room. He closed the door behind him. At the table, Laura finished her meal in silence.

The stories almost always begin the same way. A son or daughter is dead, and an undocumented immigrant is blamed. Aggrieved and adrift, the parents search for meaning in it all, some finding what they can in obsession and hatred. “In mylife we’re going to find the trash who killed my kid,” said Scott Root of Council Bluffs, Iowa, whose daughter, Sarah Root, 21, was killed in 2016, allegedly by an undocumented drunk driver who was released after partially paying bail, then disappeared. Others find meaning in political transformation. “I became a Republican,” said Sabine Durden of Mineral Springs, Ark., whose son was killed by an undocumented immigrant in a traffic collision. And still others in activism: “My story needed to get out,” said Laura Wilkerson of Pearland, Texas, whose son, Josh Wilkerson, 18, was beaten to death in 2010 by an undocumented immigrant.

Then there is Laura Calderwood. Fifty-five, with curly blond hair and a halting gait, she is a lifelong liberal who didn’t abandon her politics. She feels anger like the others, but not toward an entire group of people. She’s not afraid of the demographic change remaking the country. But she does fear the deepening polarization. So she never goes to political rallies – never speaks publicly – because she believes that would just inflame things. Instead, she tries to live every day, including this one, just as she did before it all happened.

By late afternoon, Laura had finished up her shift at the grocery store, where she works in the catering department, and gotten into her white SUV. She drove through nearby Grinnell, pulling up to the public library, as always, seeking a sense of calm in its quiet. She went in and sat near the magazines, one of which she had been reading the afternoon of July 19, when her phone rang.

It was her son Scott. He was asking, “Did you know Mollie didn’t come into work today?” Laura quickly thought back to the night before. Mollie, who’d been dogsitting at her boyfriend’s house, was supposed to have come home for dinner but hadn’t. That wasn’t unlike Mollie, sometimes scattered, always losing something. But for her to miss work? Laura quickly reported her missing. The following weeks blurred: search missions, media reports, false ransom demands, death threats, misreported sightings, private fears. On and on it went, until Aug. 21, when police announced that a body was found, and those fears were confirmed, and Laura began a new life, this one saddled by public expectations.

Improbable, but not impossible, that Michael Cohen went to Prague – Washington Examiner

Prague is lovely in the late summer. The twilight creates silhouettes out of the hundreds of spires weaving throughout the city until 9 p.m. or so, and chances are that the sky is brightening again when you stumble out of some dance club off of the Vltava. With the tipsy Czech lining the winding streets at all hours of the humid days, Prague lets you lose yourself to anonymity. But as Franz Kafka knew a century ago, “Prague never lets you go.”

So I’m inclined not to believe the latest McClatchy D.C. report claiming, yet again, that President Trump’s since-fired fixer and grifter of a personal attorney spent two summers ago meeting with Kremlin officials in the Czech capital. For perhaps the first time ever, I believe Cohen when he tweeted, “I hear #Prague #CzechRepublic is beautiful in the summertime. I wouldn’t know as I have never been. #Mueller knows everything!”

The infamous Christopher Steele dossier, whose author estimates of which 70 to 90 is accurate, originally charged Cohen with spending “August/September 2016” in Prague. The McClatchy report, if true, would eviscerate a key defense from the Trump camp against accusations of Russian collusion.

Despite the #Resistance hype built around the latest report, as it stands, only anonymous sources have backed up McClatchy’s assertions, relayed in two stories over the course of eight months. Not one other journalist or news organization has corroborated the Cohen story, nor has anyone even hinted that they are close on the trail.

That said, Cohen still hasn’t provided the public any definitive evidence exonerating him from the charge. He posted a photo of his unopened passport on Twitter shortly after BuzzFeed released the dossier, and the Atlantic confirmed that he was in fact in Los Angeles for a week in August. Because the Czech Republic belongs to the EU’s Schengen Area, a group of member countries which have effectively abolished border control, even the complete publication of Cohen’s passport wouldn’t provide a full defense (Cohen could have easily flown from the U.S. to Paris and then taken the train to Prague, leaving him only with a French stamp in his passport, not a Czech one).

But at this point, Mueller likely does know everything, at least as it pertains to Cohen. If Mueller was capable of strong-arming Cohen into a guilty plea for lying about the infamous Trump Tower meeting, it seems highly unlikely that Cohen would have persisted in a lie about the Prague trip, which would presumably leave a much clearer paper trail.

As with all things Trump-related, no verdicts are certain, and the public should continue to be open to new evidence. But as it stands, the Prague hypothesis consists of anonymous sources, conjecture, and nothing else.

Democrats’ quest to topple Trump gets real in January. Here’s why. – NBC News

WASHINGTON — January will mark the beginning of a cavalcade of Democratic presidential hopefuls who are preparing to officially launch their campaigns early in the new year, according to multiple advisers and aides working for the prospective candidates.

Running for president has become a two-year endeavor, and, even though everyone says they hate it, candidates invariably get sucked into the presidential primary-industrial complex and rush to Iowa and New Hampshire as quickly as possible, lest they get left behind.

The calculus that goes into that decision turns out to be pretty simple and comes down to one thing above all else: money. And lots of it.

Seeking the White House has never been more expensive, and some veteran Democrats estimate a candidate will need to raise $10 million to $15 million in the first quarter of 2019, and at least $50 million during the full year, to be seriously competitive once voters start actually casting ballots in early 2020.

Trump’s re-election campaign and affiliated GOP groups have already raised more than $100 million, while the Republican National Committee has raised tens of millions more.

Many potential Democratic candidates have circled January or early February on their calendars as the ideal launch window — early enough to try to raise an impressive amount of money in the first quarter of the year without stepping on November’s midterm elections.

“I have an announcement on Jan. 12,” Julian Castro, the former Obama Housing secretary, who is publicly exploring a presidential campaign, said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday.

“I know I have to make up my mind, and I have to do it by January,” former Vice President Joe Biden said earlier this year on CNN.

“Anything I might do politically is probably not something that I’ll be making any news about before January,” Mayor Pete Buttieig of South Bend, Indiana, said this month after announcing he won’t run for re-election, potentially to make a bid for the presidency.

Meanwhile, Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Cory Booker of New Jersey and Kamala Harris of California are all also quietly preparing for potential campaign launches in early 2019, people close to them have said.

That follows roughly the same timing as Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, who started their famous 2008 primary brawl in late January and early February 2007, respectively.

What’s so special about January?

As December winds to a close, no new names have come up, even though November and December were wide open for the taking. Whatever advantages other timelines may offer, the financial calendar seems to trump them.

January is likely to be crowded because it comes at the start of a financial quarter, which gives candidates the maximum amount of time to raise money before announcing their first fundraising haul at the end of the quarter in March. Extra days mean more swank campaign fundraisers, dialing-for-dollars calls, and more email solicitations to grassroots contributors who chip in just a few dollars at a time.

Presidential campaigns’ first fundraising reports to the Federal Election Commission are scrutinized like report cards by the media, rivals and opinion-leading party leaders, labor union heads and elected officials, as they decide whom to support.

A lack of early fundraising strength can be a death knell for a candidate since donors both large and small look to bet on a winning candidate and are quick to drop perceived losers.

Money isn’t everything in politics, but it’s a lot. And a strong first quarter fundraising haul is one of the surest ways to demonstrate viability and strength, not just in the primary, but in the general election against Trump.

Plenty of candidates run for president when they have little chance of winning, but none do so once they run out of money. “We simply didn’t have the resources to compete going forward,” Rick Santorum explained of his decision to quit the 2012 Republican race.

Unexpectedly strong fundraising has helped underdog candidates like Obama in 2008 and Bernie Sanders in 2016 be taken seriously and vault to the top of the field.

Trump is headed for a wake-up call on reality of divided government. That’s not a bad thing – Washington Examiner

The 115th Congress appears to have given up, with both the House and Senate failing to reach a deal to end the ongoing government shutdown. This likely punts the showdown over the border wall to the 116th Congress where Trump will face off against a Democratic majority in the House. An agreement won’t be pretty, but it would be a good lesson for Trump and one that could set the stage for a productive two years to come.

With Democrats controlling a majority in the House, any new deal that lands on Trump’s desk will be unlikely to hold the funding Trump has demanded for the wall. Since Trump won’t let government remain shut down for the rest of his term, he will eventually need sign a deal to end the gridlock. This will be seen as a capitulation to Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., the likely new speaker of the House.

That’s not a good start for the new year. It also doesn’t help Trump convince his base that he is the man to stand up to Democrats and make good on campaign promises ahead of 2020.

In the long term, however, handing an early victory to House Democrats may prove a necessary wake-up call on the reality of divided government.

The early realization that a Democrat-controlled House means more trouble than investigations and subpoenas might galvanize the president to sit down and make deals rather than simply making demands. Additionally, Trump could learn to better value Republican allies in Congress and listen to their advice about what is and is not possible. Indeed, had he followed that advice in the lead up to the holidays, the government would likely still be open with agreement on appropriations one final victory of Republican controlled government.

For conservatives, the president learning the difficult lessons of divided government early on and avoiding two years of gridlock would be an important step to victory in 2020. A track record of disagreement and stalemates, however, will fail to convince all but the staunchest supporters that Republicans and Trump are serious about governing.

Trump threatens to ‘close Southern Border’ if Dems don’t fund border wall – ABC News

President Trump threatened to shut down the entire southern border with Mexico if his demands for more funding to build a wall aren’t met.

Trump tweeted Friday that if “Obstructionist Democrats” don’t give him the $5 billion he is asking for to build his proposed border wall he will “close the Southern Border entirely.”

“We will be forced to close the Southern Border entirely if the Obstructionist Democrats do not give us the money to finish the Wall & also change the ridiculous immigration laws that our Country is saddled with,” the president tweeted. “Hard to believe there was a Congress & President who would approve!”

We will be forced to close the Southern Border entirely if the Obstructionist Democrats do not give us the money to finish the Wall & also change the ridiculous immigration laws that our Country is saddled with. Hard to believe there was a Congress & President who would approve!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 28, 2018

The government has been partially shut down since last week over an impasse between Trump and Democrats over funding for a proposed security wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The government shutdown, which has kept hundreds of thousands of federal employees out of work, is expected to extend into the new year.

President Donald Trump speaks to members of the U.S. military during an unannounced trip to Al Asad Air Base in Iraq, Dec. 26, 2018.

On Thursday, the Senate was in session for only four minutes after lawmakers didn’t show up. They aren’t expected in Washington again until the middle of next week.

Approximately 420,000 federal employees have been forced to work without pay during the holidays and another 380,000 are furloughed.

Workers are seen next a construction site of the border fence between United States and Mexico, seen from Tijuana, Mexico, Dec. 19, 2018.

The impasse also comes as a second child has died at the border this month.

Felipe Alonzo-Gomez, an 8-year-old Guatemalan boy, died while in U.S. Customs and Border Protection custody earlier this week.

On Dec. 8, a 7-year-old girl named Jakelin Caal Maquin, also died in border patrol custody.

<div class="RichTextArticleBody-body">
<p><span class="ArticlePage-articleBody-firstLetter">F</span>or a press that regularly laments President Trump’s lack of graciousness, you’d think newsrooms would try harder to show those virtues themselves. </p>
<p>Early Wednesday morning, the day after Christmas, the president and first lady Melania Trump arrived in Iraq, surprising American troops with a personal visit. The president was cheered and applauded as he took to the stage and spoke to service members stationed far from home. After his remarks, he shook hands, posed for selfies, and signed autographs for those who asked. It was a lovely episode, one that the troops clearly appreciated and enjoyed. </p>
<p>It would take a hard, graceless heart to scrounge for something to criticize in the president’s surprise visit. It’d take a conniving, cold partisan to go after the eager service members who asked the president to <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/trump-trump-jr-defend-maga-hat-signing-in-iraq">sign their red “Make America Great Again” trucker hats</a>. Yet, that’s exactly what a sizable portion of the news media did. </p>
<p>TV anchor Soledad O’Brien, for example, took credit for the visit, claiming Trump and the first lady went to Iraq only because they felt pressured from critics. </p>
<p>“Shaming him seems to work,” she wrote, explaining later, somewhat nonsensically, that, “the President … prepped for this trip several weeks ago. The shaming seems to have worked.” </p>
</p>
<p>In other corners of the press, newsrooms adopted a “too little, too late” attitude toward the Iraq visit. MSNBC aired a segment Wednesday titled, “Amid scorn over Syria, Trump finally visits troops in combat zone.” The Huffington Post took it a step further, publishing a snide and aggressive headline that read, “Trump Visits Iraq, His First Trip To A Combat Zone In His Life.” They obviously hauled out their old headline from the days of President Bill Clinton and simply changed the name — not! </p>
<p>The Washington Post’s coverage of the president’s visit spent nearly as much time <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/the-washington-post-cant-even-cover-trumps-iraq-visit-without-drowning-it-in-asides-about-his-scandals">cataloging various loosely related criticisms aimed at the White House</a> as it did recounting the details of the actual visit. NBC News published <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/nbc-news-insists-corrected-story-about-trump-not-visiting-troops-was-correct-at-the-time">a flatly untrue story Tuesday evening titled, “Trump becomes first president since 2002 not to visit troops at Christmastime.”</a> The news giant could be forgiven for getting it wrong. It cannot, however, be forgiven for standing by the story even after the facts became known. NBC updated its headline and added a lengthy editor’s note, leaning hard on the defense that, <i>technically, </i>Trump didn’t visit on Christmas Day. Christmastime, as most people know, lasts until Epiphany on Jan 6. The mealy-mouthed and snide editor’s note reads, “As of the end of Christmas Day 2018, Trump had not visited troops during the holiday season, and had announced no plans to do so. The article was correct, but on Dec. 26, the situation changed.” </p>
<p>Other newsrooms have rushed to <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/cnn-blasts-trump-for-signing-maga-hats-for-troops-in-iraq">make a scandal from the fact that</a> the president autographed MAGA hats for certain military personnel. After Trump’s visit, reporters jumped to argue that those members of the armed forces who sought or accepted Trump’s autograph have violated various military regulations by participating in “partisan political activities.” </p>
<p>Merry Christmas, anonymous American service member stationed in a desert. The press is here to explain why you should be disciplined. </p>
<p>To be fair, not everyone in the press used the president’s visit as yet more ammo for their attacks on the White House. In contrast to the widespread gloating, sneering, and self-congratulation, CNN’s Chris Cuomo gave credit where it was deserved. </p>
<p>“Good move for potus – seeing troops in Iraq after Xmas,” the news anchor tweeted on Dec. 26. “Yes, this potus has waited longest to do so, but he did it. And it means a lot to troops. Keep it positive and abt them – potus will get warranted positive coverage.” </p>

<p>— Christopher C. Cuomo (@ChrisCuomo)<br />
              <a href="https://twitter.com/ChrisCuomo/status/1078012728894279680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 26, 2018</a>
             </p></blockquote></div>
</p></div>
</p></div>
<p>Unsurprisingly, Cuomo was eaten alive on social media shortly after tweeting praise aimed at the president. Because that’s exactly the sort of thing that happens in the era of #Resisting. To suggest that Trump did something decent is to commit an act of apostasy. It will be punished mercilessly by true believers. Perhaps that’s why newsrooms are so loathe to give Trump credit where it’s due. </p>
<p>The press ought to listen to its own criticism of the president and learn a little decency.</p>

<p>Deputies initially believed Newman police corporal Ronil Singh was kidnapped early December 26,2018. Singh was shot and killed after a traffic stop. A 207 (kidnapping) call went out due to a witness report that Singh was in the suspect’s truck.</p>

<p><span class="ArticlePage-articleBody-firstLetter">T</span>he House and Senate adjourned Thursday without reaching a compromise that would end the shutdown of roughly 25 percent of the federal government. </p>
<p>The office of House Majority Whip Steve Scalise early Thursday afternoon notified members that “no votes are expected” this week, virtually ensuring the partial government shutdown affecting about 800,000 workers will continue as Democrats take control of the chamber in January. </p>
<p>The Louisiana Republican’s email to all House members likely ends chances of a legislative compromise emerging between President Trump and Congress over billions of dollars in funding for a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, as President Trump <b> </b>is demanding. </p>
<p>Then, the Senate came into session for less than five minutes later Thursday afternoon, and it adjourned until Monday at 10 a.m. for a pro forma — no votes — session. The Senate will then return at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 2. </p>
<p>Democrats take over majority of the House on Thursday, Jan. 3, when the new Congress officially begins its 116th session. </p>
<p>In an interview with CNN Thursday afternoon, House Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows said “things have not progressed.” </p>
<p>“It looks like we could be in for a very long-term shutdown,” the North Carolina Republican said. </p>
<p>Roughly 25 percent of the federal government has been shut down since midnight Saturday, with more than 320,000 workers on furlough home without pay. The rest are being forced to work without pay. The Office of Personnel Management on Thursday morning <a href="https://twitter.com/USOPM/status/1078309890832166912" target="_blank">posted</a> a link to letter templates for federal workers to use in talking with creditors, landlords, or the like during the shutdown. </p>
<p>Trump has been demanding $5 billion for a southern border wall, and that was included in a House-passed bill. But the Senate refused to pass such legislation, with all Democrats and some Republicans holding firm that they will only appropriate barely half of that — between $1.3 billion and $1.6 billion in funds for both border security and disaster relief aid. </p>
<p>With aides working behind the scenes on Capitol Hill — there were no lawmakers to be seen — Trump took to Twitter to voice his criticism of Democratic “OBSTRUCTION of the desperately needed Wall.” </p>
<div class="Enhancement">
<div class="Enhancement-item">
<div class="TweetEmbed">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The Democrats OBSTRUCTION of the desperately needed Wall, where they almost all recently agreed it should be built, is exceeded only by their OBSTRUCTION of 350 great people wanting & expecting to come into Government after being delayed for more than two years, a U.S. record!</p>
<p>— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)<br />

<p>“I don’t see a scenario where the government opens back up until a new Congress is sworn in,” said retiring Rep. Ryan Costello, R-Pa., on MSNBC on Thursday. He added, “The Democratic House is not going to put more money into border security, I don’t think.” </p>
<p>And Trump-allied Republicans don’t want the president to budge. </p>
<p>“I don’t think there’s any situation where the president should give up on that demand,” Meadows said on CNN Wednesday. “The president is very firm in his resolve.”</p>

<p class=""> A new poll from <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/poll-47-americans-blame-trump-government-shutdown-n952466"> Reuters/Ipsos</a> shows that 47% of adult Americans surveyed hold President Donald Trump responsible for the partial government shutdown, which officially began at midnight on December 22. </p>
<p class=""> The poll, which was conducted between December 21 and December 25, also found that 33% blame congressional Democrats, while 7% hold congressional Republicans responsible for the shutdown. </p>
<p class=""> The partial government shutdown was triggered because of a budget impasse prompted by Trump’s demand for $5 billion in border-wall funding. </p>
<p class=""> Congress passed funding for 80% of the government, but after initially signaling that he would sign a stopgap measure to fund the remaining 20% of the federal government, Trump changed course and said he would not sign a bill that didn’t include $5 billion for a border wall. </p>
<p class=""> The House passed a bill with the wall funding; however, it did not have the 60 votes needed to pass in the Senate before lawmakers adjourned for the Christmas holiday. </p>
<p class=""><em class=""><strong class="">Read more:</strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/government-shutdown-poll-ocasio-cortez-ideas-for-trump-border-wall-money-2018-12"> Most Americans would rather spend the $5 billion Trump is demanding for the border wall on infrastructure, education, or healthcare</a></em></p>
<p class=""> The partial government shutdown has impacted nine federal agencies and roughly 800,000 government employees — 420,000 of whom are deemed “essential” and must continue to work without pay. </p>
<p class=""> Who is to blame for the shutdown, which looks likely to continue into the new year, has been a game of political football. During a televised meeting with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat from New York, and House Minority Leader — and presumptive Majority Leader come January — Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat from California, Trump said he was <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/public-fight-democrats-trump-says-he-would-be-proud-shut-n946556"> “proud”</a> to shut down the government in the name of border security. Soon after, however, he blamed Democrats. </p>
<p class=""> On Tuesday, Trump said, “Many of those [federal] workers have said to me, communicated, ‘stay out until you get the funding for the wall.'” But on Thursday, he tweeted, “Do the Dems realize that most of the people not getting paid are Democrats?” The comment immediately drew backlash from congressional Democrats.                                                                                 </p>
<p class=""> The Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 35% of respondents support funding for a border wall and only 25% support a shutdown over wall funding. Of the 2,440 adults who responded to the poll, 946 people identified as Democrats and 846 identified as Republicans. </p>

<p class="speakable">America’s oldest veteran, Richard Overton, who served in the Army during World War II and credited God, whiskey and cigars for his remarkable longevity, died Thursday in Texas at the age of 112, reports say.</p>
<p class="speakable">He had been hospitalized for the last week with pneumonia, his family said.</p>
<p>Shirley Overton, whose husband was Richard’s cousin, said the vet died Thursday evening at a rehab facility in Austin.</p>
<p>Overton, who was also thought to be the oldest living American, was born in 1906 in Bastrop County, just outside Austin, Texas.</p>
<p>Overton was in his 30s when he volunteered for the Army, and was at Pearl Harbor just after the Japanese surprise attack in 1941.</p>
<p>The WWII veteran served in the all-black 1887th Engineer Aviation Battalion from 1942 to 1945, a period that included stops in Angaur, Palau; Peleliu, Micronesia; and Iwo Jima, Japan.</p>

<p>On Veterans Day in 2013, as <a href="http://www.fox7austin.com/news/local-news/nations-oldest-living-veteran-richard-overton-dies-in-austin-at-age-112">FOX 7 Austin</a> reported, former President Barack Obama honored Overton in front of thousands in the nation’s capital. “His service on the battlefield was not always matched by the respect that he deserved at home. But this veteran held his head high,” Obama said.</p>
<p>Overton, in later years, could often be seen on the porch of his home, which he built in East Austin in 1945.</p>
<p>“He’s like a gift to Austin that keeps giving,” Overton’s friend <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/nations-oldest-wwii-veteran-richard-overton-turns-112-hes-a-crackerjack">Steve Wiener said last summer</a>. “He’s a crackerjack. When people sense his humor and playfulness, it just lightens everyone’s step.”</p>
<p><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/nations-oldest-living-veteran-hospitalized-for-pneumonia-expected-to-be-released-family-says">His favorite pastime</a> was smoking his 12 daily cigars on his front porch, which friends dubbed his “stage.”</p>
<p>He had lived on his street since returning from war. That street was named in his honor for his 111th birthday last year.</p>
<p>He was grateful to be the nation’s oldest veteran. And he offered this wry advice for living a long life: “Keep living, don’t die.”</p>

<p>MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Post-holiday travelers were finding driving difficult as a winter storm dumped heavy snow and whipped up gusty winds across parts of the Dakotas and Minnesota on Thursday.</p>
<p>Up to 11 inches (28 centimeters) of snow had fallen in the Moorhead-Alexandria area of western Minnesota by mid-afternoon Thursday, and it was still snowing, said meteorologist Tyler Hasenstein of the Twin Cities National Weather Service.</p>
<p>The line of snow ended just northwest of the Twin Cities around Elk River, Hasenstein said. The snowfall peaked around 3 inches (8 centimeters) at the Minneapolis airport, then rain starting early Thursday melted the snowpack.</p>

<p>Officials in North Dakota issued a no-travel advisory for the eastern part of the state due to icy roads and reduced visibility. Blustery winds were causing blizzard conditions in Jamestown, North Dakota, and in northern South Dakota, where transportation officials reported visibility was down to a quarter-mile along a stretch of Highway 10.</p>
<p>Bus service for Fargo, North Dakota, and neighboring Moorhead, Minnesota, was suspended Thursday afternoon because of worsening road conditions. Service is expected to resume Friday with a normal schedule.</p>
<p>The National Weather Service issued blizzard warnings for central South Dakota, eastern North Dakota and western Minnesota. The storm was expected to drop more than a foot of snow in the region before ending Friday.</p>
<p>The Minnesota State Patrol tweeted that road conditions are poor across much of western Minnesota. Transportation officials said road conditions across much of the central and northern areas of the state are completely covered with ice and snow, with windy conditions causing even more travel issues. The Minnesota Department of Transportation said it might be better to wait for conditions to improve if travel isn’t necessary.</p>
<p>The weather service said an estimated 18 inches of snow had fallen by early Thursday afternoon near Finland on Minnesota’s North Shore.</p>
<p>The North Dakota Highway Patrol issued a travel alert for parts of North Dakota including Bismarck and Devils Lake due to whiteout conditions. Eastern North Dakota was expected to deal with winds gusting up to 50 mph, creating blizzard conditions mainly in the Red River Valley.</p>
<p>University campuses, courthouses and municipal buildings across North Dakota are among the places closed on Thursday, including the University of North Dakota campus in Grand Forks.</p>

<p>House Democrats — increasingly convinced they’re winning the shutdown fight with President Donald Trump — are plotting ways to reopen the government while denying the president even a penny more for his border wall when they take power Jan. 3.</p>
<p>House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and her top lieutenants are considering several options that would refuse Trump the $5 billion he’s demanded for the wall and send hundreds of thousands of furloughed federal employees back to work, according to senior Democratic sources. </p>
<p class="story-continued">Story Continued Below</p>
<p>While the strategy is fluid, House Democrats hope to pass a funding bill shortly after members are sworn in. They believe that would put pressure on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to follow suit. And they’re confident that their political leverage will only increase the longer the shutdown lasts — a notion that some GOP leaders agree with privately.</p>
<p>Indeed, the specter of a lengthy shutdown could hurt Trump’s already damaged image more than it would Democrats — especially because he claimed ownership of the crisis two weeks ago. Democrats believe the shutdown battle — combined with the volatility in financial markets and special counsel Robert Mueller closing in on Trump — exacerbates the appearance of a cornered president acting out of his own political self-interest instead of the needs of the American public.</p>

<p>“We want … the government open and my hope is we can get it opened before Jan. 3,” said Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), the incoming Rules Committee chairman. “If not, one of the first things we’ll do will be to move to pass legislation to re-open the government. And the president can decide whether he wants to sign it or not.”</p>
<p>“I believe Democrats are going to move [to end the shutdown] on Jan. 3,” added Rep. Gerry Connolly, a Virginia Democrat whose district includes thousands of federal employees. “It’s got to be the first item of business.”</p>
<p>On Thursday afternoon, when the House briefly went into a pro-forma session, McGovern tried to bring up a Senate-passed bill to re-open the government, the second attempt by House Democrats to do so in recent days. Republicans refused to recognize McGovern, stifling his effort — but not before he yelled to the empty chamber: “Mr. Speaker, 800,000 federal employees don’t know whether they will get paid! Mr. Speaker!”</p>
<p>With it increasingly unlikely that Republicans will do anything in the remainder of the 115<sup>th</sup> Congress to end the stalemate, House Democrats are considering a procedural tactic that would allow them to move quickly once they’re officially in the majority on Jan. 3. </p>
<p>They’re weighing including multiple funding options in a package of rules for the new Congress that they intend to approve that day, according to Democratic sources. That would give Trump and Senate Republicans several options to choose from.</p>
<p>The alternatives under discussion have all been floated to Trump already by Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.). But one option they’re not considering, sources close to the Democratic leaders said, is offering the president more than the $1.3 billion they already put on the table to fund fencing at the southern border.</p>

<p>So far, Trump has refused the $1.3 billion as too little. But Democrats believe he’ll come under fire as stories of furloughed federal employees spread in January, and the chaos of a shutdown starts to affect everyday Americans.</p>
<p>“The American people know that this is a Trump shutdown,” McGovern said. </p>
<p>One option Democrats are considering is a short-term funding measure to open now-shuttered agencies until Feb. 8. A week ago, the Senate approved a continuing resolution with that timeline. Some House Democrats believe that if they quickly push the CR through their own chamber, McConnell — a former appropriator who despises shutdowns — will feel pressure to act.</p>
<p>A short-term bill would also allow newly empowered House Democratic appropriators to put their mark on the last remaining funding bills before they pass a larger package in February, two Democratic sources pointed out. </p>
<p>But with Trump still urging Hill Republicans to fight for his wall, McConnell is unlikely to take up a stop-gap funding bill. GOP leaders have made clear they will not act without the president’s public support for any funding bill to reopen the government.</p>
<p>Connolly also isn’t interested in a short-term funding solution. He wants an agreement that keeps the entire government funded through Sept. 30.</p>

<p>“I see a growing sentiment among Democrats to have a funding vehicle that carries us through the end of the fiscal year,” Connolly added. A “short-term CR gets us very little.”</p>
<p>Trump rejected a temporary fix just last week, instead blessing an attempt by House Republicans provide $5 billion for the wall, which led to the shutdown. </p>
<p>House Democrats are also considering a CR for the affected agencies that would last through the fiscal year. Such a proposal would mean no policy changes for the agencies that are currently closed; they would operate on the same budget they had in fiscal 2018.</p>
<p>A third option being considered includes passing full appropriations bills for all affected agencies except the Homeland Security Department, which is where Trump’s wall money would go. That department would operate under current levels through the rest of the fiscal year. </p>
<p>No matter what option they go with, House Minority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and other Democrats from Virginia and Maryland intend to add a provision to any funding bill guaranteeing back pay for any federal employees hit by the shutdown.</p>

<p class="">More Americans blame President Donald Trump than congressional Democrats for the partial U.S. government shutdown, a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Thursday found, as lawmakers returned to Washington with no quick end to the shutdown in sight.</p>
<p class="">Forty-seven percent of adults in the U.S. hold Trump responsible, while 33 percent blame Democrats in Congress, according to the Dec. 21-25 poll, conducted mostly after the shutdown began. Seven percent of Americans blamed congressional Republicans.</p>
<p class="">The <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/what-happens-if-government-shuts-down-n949036" target="_blank">shutdown </a>was triggered by Trump’s demand, largely opposed by Democrats and some Republicans, that taxpayers provide him with $5 billion to help pay for a wall he wants to build on the Mexican border. Its total estimated cost is $23 billion.</p>
<p class="">Just 35 percent of those surveyed in the Reuters/Ipsos poll said they backed including money for the wall in a congressional spending bill. Only 25 percent said they supported Trump shutting down the government over the matter.</p>
<p class="">The shutdown, now in its sixth day, has a had limited impact so far, partly due to vacations for the<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/42-000-coast-guard-members-are-only-military-branch-work-n952066" target="_blank"> 800,000 federal workers affected</a>, though that could change soon.</p>
<section class="inlineVideo___3ZAlE" />
<p class="">Government agencies began notifying the public on Thursday about service disruptions. The Federal Emergency Management Agency said the shutdown means it cannot process new flood insurance policies, possibly disrupting home sales.</p>
<p class="">The Office of Personnel Management, which oversees the federal workforce, offered advice to government employees on staving off creditors if paychecks lapse.</p>
<p class="">On Capitol Hill, the Senate and House of Representatives were set to reconvene late on Thursday, but no prompt action by them was expected. The lack of urgency fueled speculation among analysts that the shutdown could drag on well into January.</p>
<section class="inlineVideo___3ZAlE" />
<p class="">The wall dispute coincided with the expiration of funding for about 20 percent of the government. The remaining 80 percent is fully funded and is unaffected by the shutdown.</p>
<p class="">The departments of Homeland Security, Justice, Agriculture, Commerce and other agencies, shut down “non-essential” operations on Saturday after a tentative funding deal collapsed over Trump’s renewed insistence that wall funding be provided.</p>
<p class="">The House has approved a shutdown-ending spending measure that includes Trump’s demand for $5 billion, but its prospects in the Senate were seen as poor.</p>
<p class="">Trump argues that his wall is needed to stem illegal immigration and drugs entering the country – a key plank in his 2016 presidential campaign.</p>
<p class="">Earlier this month, he said he would be <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/public-fight-democrats-trump-says-he-would-be-proud-shut-n946556" target="_blank">“proud to shut down the government” </a>over wall funding. On Twitter, since the shutdown started, he has tried to blame the Democrats.</p>
<p class="">In a tweet on Thursday, he framed the shutdown as a partisan issue, saying, “Do the Dems realize that most of the people not getting paid are Democrats?”</p>

<p class="">The assertion, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-now-claims-most-furloughed-workers-are-democrats-n952236" target="_blank">for which Trump provided no evidence</a>, drew immediate criticism from Democrats.</p>
<p class="">“Federal employees don’t go to work wearing red or blue jerseys,” Democratic Senator Mark Warner wrote on Twitter.</p>
<p class="">“They’re public servants. And the president is treating them like poker chips at one of his failed casinos,” Warner said.</p>
<p class="lastMarkupItem">The Reuters/Ipsos poll was conducted online in English across the United States. It gathered responses from 2,440 adults, including 946 Democrats and 846 Republicans.

<p class="story-body__introduction">A partial US government shutdown is likely to continue into next week amid an impasse over funding for President Trump’s proposed Mexico border wall.</p>
<p>Both Congress chambers adjourned within minutes without acting to end the six-day closure. Many lawmakers did not return to Washington for the sessions.</p>
<p>Whether or not to fund the wall is the issue holding up the passing of a government funding budget.</p>
<p>Both sides now seem to accept that the dispute will continue into 2019. </p>
<p>The funding dispute has left hundreds of thousands of federal employees either on unpaid leave or not knowing when they will get paid.</p>

<p>The situation has added to concerns over the outlook for the US economy in 2019, leading the stock market on a rollercoaster ride in recent days.</p>
<ul class="story-body__unordered-list">
<li class="story-body__list-item"><a href="/news/business-46696376" class="story-body__link">US stock markets rally after slide</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">Why can’t Trump get his budget passed?</h2>
<p>His Republican Party controls both chambers of the outgoing Congress and the budget was indeed passed by the House on Thursday by 217 votes to 185.</p>
<p>However, he needs to find 60 votes in the 100-seat Senate, where the Republicans currently have 51, so he needs to enlist the support of Democrats there.  </p>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">How is the shutdown playing out?</h2>
<p>Nine of 15 federal departments, including State, Homeland Security, Transportation, Agriculture and Justice began partially shutting down after funding for them lapsed at midnight (05:00 GMT) last Saturday.</p>
<p>Hundreds of thousands of federal employees will have to work unpaid or are furloughed, a kind of temporary leave. </p>
<p>In practice, this means that:</p>
<ul class="story-body__unordered-list">
<li class="story-body__list-item">
<strong>Customs and border staff</strong> will keep working, although their pay will be delayed. <strong>Airports </strong>will continue operating.</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">About 80% of <strong>National Parks </strong>employees will be sent home, and parks could close – although some may stay open with limited staff and facilities.</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">About 90% of <strong>housing department </strong>workers will take unpaid leave, which could delay loan processing and approvals. </li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Most of the<strong> Internal Revenue Service</strong> (IRS) will be sent on unpaid leave, including those who assist taxpayers with queries.</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">The Food and Drug Administration will pause routine inspections but “continue vital activities”.</li>
</ul>
<p>The remaining 75% of the federal government is fully funded until September 2019 – so the defence, veterans affairs, labour and education departments are not affected.</p>

<div class="StandardArticleBody_body">
<p>WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A partial U.S. government shutdown was widely expected to continue after Congress reconvenes on Thursday, with lawmakers split over President Donald Trump’s demand for $5 billion in taxpayer funding for a proposed Mexican border wall. </p>
<div class="PrimaryAsset_container">

<p>The Senate and the House of Representatives were set to meet at 4 p.m. EST on the sixth day of the shutdown and resume debating ways to end it. That will include Senate consideration of a measure already approved by the Republican-controlled House that meets Trump’s wall-funding demand. </p>
<p>For that bill to move forward in the 100-seat Senate, it would need 60 votes. Republicans have only 51 seats, so they will need to try to persuade some Democrats to back the measure.  </p>
<p>But Democrats largely oppose Trump’s proposed wall, which he had initially said would financed by Mexico. They have offered support for $1.3 billion in general border security funding. It was not clear if some compromise could be struck between that offer and Trump’s demand. </p>
<p>Over the weekend, Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, said the White House had made a counter-offer to Democrats on border security. Media reports said Vice President Mike Pence had proposed $2.1 billion in funding. </p>
<p>Last week Trump said his administration was prepared for a lengthy shutdown. </p>
<p>After weeks of failed talks between Trump and congressional leaders, parts of the U.S. government shut down on Saturday, affecting about 800,000 employees of the Departments of Homeland Security, Justice, Agriculture, Commerce and other agencies. </p>
<p>Most of the federal government, which directly employs almost 4 million people, is unaffected. The Defense, Energy, Labor and other departments are funded through Sept. 30. </p>
<p>Even agencies that are affected never totally close, with workers deemed “essential” still performing their duties. </p>
<p>“Non-essential” federal workers at unfunded agencies are on furlough and staying home. Both they and essential employees will not get paychecks after December until the shutdown ends. </p>
<p>“We continue to believe that it is unlikely that Congress will come up with a deal to end the current partial shutdown until well into January,” financial firm Height Securities said in a commentary note on Wednesday. </p>
<p>The 435-seat House was set to reopen on Thursday but on Jan. 3, the 2017-18 Congress will be replaced by the 2019-20 Congress and control of the House will switch to the Democrats from the Republicans. At that time, Representative Nancy Pelosi is expected to take over as House speaker. </p>
<p>She has vowed swift action to fully reopen the government. Barring some sort of deal in the interim, House Democrats expect to vote on a funding bill on Jan. 3, a Democratic aide said. </p>
<p>In the new Congress, Senate Republicans will increase their number of seats to 53 but still will need Democratic support to pass any legislation requiring a 60-vote majority. </p>
<p>Details of the upcoming House bill were unclear but it was unlikely to include wall funding, like an earlier Senate measure. If such a bill were to pass the House and again win support in the Senate, it would then go to Trump. </p>
<p>At that point, he could face a politically difficult choice – back down on his full wall-funding demand or veto the bill and single-handedly extend the partial shutdown. </p>
<p>If he chose the latter, putting his personal stamp on the shutdown, Congress might then move to override his veto, but that would take a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House, a challenging hurdle for lawmakers. </p>

<p class="speakable">Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein <a href="https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/_cache/files/4/2/42a6e938-23ef-4ef0-863c-5d4f1c2ac3dd/2E4A576B9641CE027482D76535705C37.feinstein-letter-to-graham-on-immigrant-child-deaths.pdf" target="_blank">penned a letter</a> on Thursday urging the chamber’s Judiciary committee to schedule a hearing about Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and its “treatment of immigrant children.”</p>
<p class="speakable">The letter was addressed to incoming Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and said the request came “in light of the deaths of two young children in Border Patrol custody this month.”</p>
<p>An 8-year-old boy from Guatemala, who was identified by the country’s consul in Phoenix as Felipe Gomez Alonzo, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/border-patrol-says-guatemalan-boy-8-dies-in-custody" target="_blank">died on Tuesday</a> while in U.S. custody, immigrations officials previously said.</p>
<p>Customs and Border Protection revealed that the boy died at a medical center in New Mexico. He was taken for care and found to have a “common cold” after an agent on Monday “noticed that the child showed signs of potential illness,” immigrations officials said.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/border-patrol-says-guatemalan-boy-8-dies-in-custody" target="_blank"><strong>GUATEMALAN BOY, 8, DIES IN US BORDER PATROL CUSTODY</strong></a></p>
<p>Before he left the hospital, staff discovered a fever. He was discharged in the mid-afternoon with prescriptions for amoxicillin and Ibuprofen.</p>
<p>Later that day, however, the child “exhibited nausea and vomiting and was transferred back” to the facility for evaluation and treatment, CBP said. He died around midnight.</p>
<p>His cause of death is not yet known and an investigation has been opened, officials said.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p>Feinstein, in her letter, said the boy, prior to his death, had been “detained for well over the permitted 72-hour period.”</p>
<p>The 8-year-old and his father <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/border-patrol-says-guatemalan-boy-8-dies-in-custody" target="_blank">entered the U.S. via El Paso, Texas</a>, on Dec. 18, according to Guatemala’s foreign ministry. They were then taken to the Border Patrol’s Alamogordo station on Sunday.</p>

<p>Feinstein also referenced the death of Jakelin Caal, a 7-year-old girl from Guatemala who died while in U.S. Border Patrol custody earlier this month.</p>
<p>“These heartbreaking incidents are sadly consistent with previous reports of widespread abuse of children in immigration custody and the judgement of medical and mental health organizations that Border Patrol facilities are not adequately staffed or equipped to properly care for children,” Feinstein wrote.</p>
<p>She added that the committee, on which she is a ranking member, “is uniquely situated to examine these issues” and hoped the matter could be addressed through a hearing in 2019.</p>

<p class=""> As the partial government shutdown drags on into its sixth day, President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/government-shutdown-to-last-at-least-through-christmas-2018-12"> has remained steadfast in his demands</a> that $5 billion for a wall along the US-Mexico border be included in any package to funding and reopening the government. </p>
<p class=""> “Have the Democrats finally realized that we desperately need Border Security and a Wall on the Southern Border,” Trump tweeted Thursday. “Need to stop Drugs, Human Trafficking, Gang Members & Criminals from coming into our Country.” </p>
<p class=""> But according to an INSIDER poll, most Americans would prefer to put the $5 billion Trump is demanding toward other policy goals. </p>
<p class=""> At the start of the government shutdown, Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lamented House Republicans inclusion of $5.7 billion in border-wall money in their doomed funding package. </p>
<p class=""> “And just like that, GOP discovers $5.7 billion for a wall. $5.7 billion,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “What if we instead added $5.7B in teacher pay? Or replacing water pipes? Or college tuition/prescription refill subsidies? Or green jobs? But notice how no one’s asking the GOP how they’re paying for it.” </p>
<p class=""><em class=""><strong class="">Read more:</strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/history-of-government-shutdowns-in-congress-2018-1"> The government shutdown is now in day 6 — here’s how long previous government shutdowns have lasted</a></em></p>
<p class=""> In response to Ocasio-Cortez’s tweet, Washington Post writer Jeff Stein suggested a few alternatives for the $5.7 billion in funding, including funding pre-kindergarten education for every child in the US or covering the healthcare expenses for hundreds of thousands of Americans over the course of the year. </p>
<p class=""> INSIDER polled these alternatives against funding for the wall and found that the wall was not a particularly popular option. </p>
<p class=""> Conducted as a SurveyMonkey Audience poll with 1,025 respondents that ran December 21-22, INSIDER asked respondents, “What is the best use of $5.7 billion in federal funding?” and offered four options: </p>
<ul>
<li> “build a portion of a wall along the US-Mexico border”     </li>
<li> “fund pre-kindergarten programs for every child in the US for a year”     </li>
<li> “pay the healthcare expenses for roughly 530,000 Americans for a year”     </li>
<li> “fund infrastructure improvements”     </li>
</ul>
<p class=""> The figures were based on Stein’s estimates for the utility of $5.7 billion in different areas of administration and calculations based on <a href="https://www.cms.gov/Research-Statistics-Data-and-Systems/Statistics-Trends-and-Reports/NationalHealthExpendData/NationalHealthAccountsHistorical.html"> the most healthcare spending data</a>.                                                                                                                                 </p>
<p class=""> Only 19% of respondents thought the wall was the best use of that funding. </p>
<p class=""> The best-polling use of funds was paying healthcare expenses for a half-million people, backed by 36% of respondents. </p>
<p class=""> A further 30% thought infrastructure would most benefit from the funding, while 15% would fund pre-K programs. </p>
<p class=""> Only respondents who identified as conservative thought the wall was an important priority. </p>
<ul>
<li> Of those who identified as moderately or very conservative, about 53% wanted the wall, with 22% preferring infrastructure improvements and 16% preferring healthcare.     </li>
<li> Of those who only slightly leaned liberal or conservative or didn’t identify with either political ideology, they vastly preferred healthcare (39%) and infrastructure (32%), then pre-K (16%) and only then the wall (13%).     </li>
<li> Of those who identified as moderately or very liberal, only 2% want to fund the wall, with 49% preferring that spending go to healthcare, 34% on infrastructure and 14% on pre-K.     </li>
</ul>
<p class=""> Overall, 24% of respondents identified as very or moderately conservative, 28% very or moderately liberal, and 36% as neither or slightly liberal or conservative.                                                                                                                                 </p>
<p class=""> It illustrates a key divide on the shutdown: According to this survey, only the core supporters who comprise Trump’s base want the funding for the wall, while the rest of respondents were uninterested in allocating nearly $6 billion to the border partition. </p>
<p class=""> The finding also seems to match up with <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/poll-most-americans-are-not-ok-with-a-government-shutdown-2018-12"> a previous INSIDER poll</a>, conducted before the start of the shutdown, that found 60% of those surveyed wouldn’t tolerate a shutdown over the wall. <a href="https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/americans-dont-want-a-government-shutdown-because-of-the-border-wall/"> Other pollsters</a> found <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2018/12/19/poll-voters-would-blame-trump-gop-for-shutdown-1068673"> similar results</a>. </p>
<p class=""><em class="">SurveyMonkey Audience polls from a national sample balanced by census data of age and gender. Respondents are incentivized to complete surveys through charitable contributions. Generally speaking, digital polling tends to skew toward people with access to the internet. SurveyMonkey Audience doesn’t try to weight its sample based on race or income. Total 1,025 completed respondents December 21-22, margin of error plus or minus 3.12 percentage points with 95% confidence level.</em></p>

<h4 class="title"><a href="http://video.foxnews.com/v/5983679898001">President Trump trades barbs with Democrats over the ongoing partial government shutdown as the battle over border funding continues</a></h4>

<p class="speakable">President Trump on Thursday assailed Democratic “obstruction” of his calls for a wall on the southern border, a project he says is “desperately needed” — as the partial government shutdown showed no sign of resolution.</p>
<p class="speakable">“The Democrats OBSTRUCTION of the desperately needed Wall, where they almost all recently agreed it should be built, is exceeded only by their OBSTRUCTION of 350 great people wanting & expecting to come into Government after being delayed for more than two years, a U.S. record!” he tweeted, referring to the alleged slowness of Senate confirmation for appointments.</p>
<p>The government partially shut down on Saturday. Lawmakers were unable to agree on a spending package to keep the government open that would also finance Trump’s campaign promise about the wall.</p>
<p>Trump has said he won’t sign a bill that does not adequately fund the wall, and has demanded $5 billion for it. Democrats have said they are prepared to offer $1.3 billion for border security, not a wall. Neither side has expressed willingness to back down.</p>
<p>In Congress, there is currently no movement at all to end the stalemate and no back-channel negotiation. A member of the House Republican leadership indicated to Fox News that a resolution may not emerge until the new year.</p>
<p>The House and Senate were both scheduled to meet at 4 p.m. ET in a “pro forma” session, where no legislative business was expected. Both chambers must meet at three-day intervals unless there’s an agreement from both bodies to adjourn. A small crew is expected for both sessions, with few members even remaining in the capital.</p>
<p>Earlier Thursday, Trump questioned if Democrats realize that “we desperately need Border Security and a Wall on the Southern Border” and said it was needed to stop “Drugs, Human Trafficking, Gang Members & Criminals from coming into our Country.”</p>

<p>He then asked: “Do the Dems realize that most of the people not getting paid are Democrats?”</p>
<p>He did not immediately provide proof to back up his claim, but there is evidence to suggest that federal workers as a bloc do skew toward voting for Democrats. <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/302817-government-workers-shun-trump-give-big-money-to-clinton-campaign">The Hill</a> reported that in 2016, 95 percent of the roughly $2 million from 14 agencies spent on presidential politics went to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s campaign.</p>
<p>Several agencies saw more than 99 percent of contributions going to Clinton, according to The Hill.</p>

<p>About a quarter of the government is shut down, with about 420,000 federal employees working without pay, while another 380,000 are furloughed.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trumps-christmas-message-to-democrats-government-shutdown-will-last-until-we-have-a-wall">TRUMP’S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE TO DEMOCRATS: GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN WILL LAST ‘UNTIL WE HAVE A WALL’</a></strong></p>
<p>On Chistmas Day, Trump said federal workers back what he is doing and have urged him to ‘stay out until you get the funding for the wall.’</p>
<p>“These federal workers want the wall,” he said. “The only one that doesn’t want the wall are the Democrats.”</p>
<p><a href="https://wtop.com/local-politics-elections-news/2018/12/dc-mayor-urges-trump-to-work-with-congress-to-bring-immediate-end-to-shutdown/">WTOP-FM</a> reported Wednesday that the mayor of Washington, D.C., Muriel Bowser, had written to Trump urging him to end the shutdown, saying that the city will be hurt if the impasse continues.</p>
<p>“Indeed, many DC residents, businesses including restaurants and hotels, and federal contractors will suffer severe impacts if the shutdown continues indefinitely,” Bowser wrote.</p>
