Senate sprints to end DHS shutdown after promising deal emerges

For the first time in more than a month, there’s optimism the partial government shutdown could end soon. Senate Republicans emerged gleeful from a meeting at the White House on Monday night.
What changed?: President Trump appears to have shifted gears. The White House says he is now willing to end the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown without first passing his voter requirements bill.
OK, so what’s the deal?: Senate Republicans would agree to fund everything in the DHS, except for Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) migrant removal operations.
Does that mean Republicans caved?: Not really. Republicans would then fund the rest of ICE in a reconciliation package, which they can do without any Democratic support. That follow-up reconciliation bill could also include elements of Trump’s voter requirements bill.
Democrats wouldn’t vote to fund ICE’s deportation efforts. Republicans are instead pushing to pass their more partisan priorities on their own, while delivering to Trump some of the elements of his election bill.

fricking gutless horseshite.
Expect Senate GOP to frick Trump silly on the reconciliation (get the Parliamentarian to find none of the election integrity measures are proper for reconciliation)

Yes. It means both the President and the GOP caved for "free beer tomorrow".
They may get ICE's funding done through reconciliation, but SAVE America is probably toast.

If they are going down the reconciliation route to fund ICE then why even entertain the dems at all? Pass a reconciliation bill that includes elements of the SAVE Act and funds DHS.
Or even better yet. Tell the dems to pound sand, and pass a reconciliation bill to fund DHS and use the talking filibuster to pass the entire SAVE America Act.

ICE is funded through 2029 with the OBB, no need to be in this bill. It was dumb for the dems to shutdown the government over something that is already funded for the next 3 years
