Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) on Sunday said he "absolutely" expects a partial government shutdown amid the funding battle over the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
"I absolutely would expect that it's going to shut down. I know, we the Democrats, we provided, I think it was 10 kinds of basic things, and then the Republican[s] pushed back quickly, saying that that's like a Christmas wish list and that there are nonstarters," Fetterman told Fox News's Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures." |

And the president was rightly and appropriately and forcefully denounced by people all across the country, Democrats, and even a handful of Republicans, who finally showed some backbone in pushing back against the president's malignant, bottom-feeder-like behavior," Jeffries told host Dana Bash on CNN's "State of the Union." |

Warner fears US doesn't have 'full power of pressure' to bring against Iran |
Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) on Sunday said he fears that the United States doesn't have the "full power of pressure" against Iran. His comments coincide with the Trump administration's push to dismantle Tehran's nuclear development program after striking three of their facilities last year. President Trump sent the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier to the region in late January, escalating tensions and the possibility of future strikes amid indirect talks with Iranian leaders in Oman. The U.S. military also shot down an Iranian drone near the aircraft carrier earlier this month. "What I fear is that we don't have the ability to bring the full power of pressure against Iran," Warner said of the current circumstances during an appearance on CBS News's "Face the Nation." |
