Congress avoids a Christmas shutdown, German market attack suspect faces murder charges: Weekend Rundown

Shutdown averted On the eve of closure, a financing package was enacted by the House, clearing off any uncertainty. Early on Saturday morning, the Senate ratified the last-minute agreement to keep the government open, and hours later, President Joe Biden signed it into law. The week's unrest served as a glimpse of the legislative mayhem that would erupt in Washington following the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump. For just three months, Congress postponed federal financing, adding to Trump's already long list of tasks for his first 100 days in office. Regarding the new deadline, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., stated, "I think it's kind of stupid." Don't expect me to defend or explain this dysfunction. The battle over expenditures also demonstrated Elon Musk's political clout on Ca...

GOP congressman says it feels like Elon Musk is ‘our prime minister’

On Sunday, Texas Representative Tony Gonzales, a Republican, praised tech tycoon Elon Musk for opposing an early draft of a stopgap funding package last week and likened him to a prime minister.

We have the impression that Elon Musk is our prime minister. During a hectic week for House Republicans, Gonzales said, he had a few conversations with Musk as GOP leadership rushed to put together a government funding package that would be approved by the majority of the House GOP caucus. Gonzales voted against the final version of a continuing resolution that was approved by President Joe Biden on Saturday after it passed the House late Friday night. T...

Trump addresses Elon Musk’s growing political influence: ‘He’s not going to be president’

PHOENIX – Following a week in which Musk helped thwart an emergency budget plan to prevent a government shutdown, President-elect Donald Trump denied any indication that he is being replaced by his well-known billionaire ally, Elon Musk. Trump claimed that the idea that he has given Musk the presidency is untrue and that Musk would not be able to obtain it even if he want it due to the Constitution's requirement that the president of the United States be a natural-born citizen. South Africa is where Musk was born. "I can assure you that he will not be president," Trump stated. I'm also safe. Do you understand why he can't be? This country is not where he was born. Thousands of conservative activists cheered enthusiastically as Trump ascended the stage amidst a firework display during his ...
