周四发生两起枪击事件,其中一起嫌疑人与极端组织“伊斯兰国”(ISIS)有关联,这让共和党人发出紧急警告,要求重新启动国土安全部(DHS)的资金支持,而民主党人则进一步坚持其立场。

参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党人查克·舒默(Chuck Schumer)及其党团周四再次否决了为该机构通过全年拨款法案的尝试,以及多次提供临时资金的努力。就在投票结束、议员们撤离华盛顿特区之际,密歇根州西布卢姆菲尔德市以色列圣殿犹太教堂突发活跃枪手事件。

在此次事件中,嫌疑人与警方交火后死亡。与此同时,弗吉尼亚州老多米尼昂大学发生另一起枪击事件,一名此前因支持ISIS而被监禁的嫌疑人导致1人死亡、2人受伤。

参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩(John Thune),南达科他州共和党人,告诉福克斯新闻数字版:“在某个时刻,不资助国土安全部的后果和影响是真实存在的。”

参议院共和党人已三次尝试通过该机构的全年资金法案,但均未成功。图恩指出,自舒默和民主党人回应白宫最新妥协方案以来,已经过去两周了。

当被问及最新的枪击事件是否会促使民主党人让步时,图恩表示:“我不确定。”

“但这是一场危险的博弈,人们将会受到伤害,”图恩说。

资金僵局已导致该机构停摆近一个月,国会内部几乎看不到很快达成协议的希望。共和党人警告称,由于唐纳德·特朗普总统对伊朗发动的战争,美国境内可能面临更多威胁,而国土安全部将在缺乏适当资金的情况下无力应对。

参议院多数党党鞭约翰·巴罗索(John Barrasso),怀俄明州共和党人,抨击舒默和民主党人持续阻挠拨款,并指责他们试图“瓦解”国土安全部。

“他们过于依附并脱离了这个国家的极左翼势力,以至于不关心其他所有人,”巴罗索表示。“我们的家园已经发生了恐怖袭击——过去两周就有两起。”

民主党人周四大部分时间都在试图逐件为该机构提供资金,以争取为移民和海关执法局(ICE)拨款,而他们寻求的严格改革遭到共和党人的强烈反对,认为改革力度过大。

福克斯新闻数字版联系舒默办公室,询问最新的枪击事件是否会改变其在停摆问题上的考量,但该办公室尚未立即回应。

相反,舒默发表了一份关于犹太教堂枪击事件的声明,其中未提及国土安全部或资金争议。

“反犹主义并非理论,它是真实存在且致命的,”舒默表示。“与各地有良知的人们站在一起,我们必须直面它、谴责它并击败它。我们每个人都有责任不仅要坚决反对这种有害仇恨,还要全力以赴与之抗争,无论它来自何方。”

Two shootings intensify DHS standoff as GOP warns of rising terror threats

Thune says ‘people are going to get hurt’ after Schumer blocks DHS funding attempts

A pair of shootings on Thursday, one involving a suspect linked to ISIS, has Republicans sounding the alarm to reopen the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), while Democrats dig further into their position.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and his caucus again blocked a full-year funding bill for the agency, as well as multiple attempts to provide temporary funding, on Thursday. Just as the vote ended and as lawmakers fled Washington, D.C., an active shooter incident at the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield, Mich., erupted.

The suspect died in a shootout with police in that incident. Meanwhile, another shooting at Old Dominion University in Virginia with a suspect previously imprisoned for supporting ISIS led to one person killed and two others injured.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., told Fox News Digital, “At some point, the consequences, impacts of not funding DHS are real.”

Senate Republicans have tried and failed three times to pass full-year funding for the agency, and Thune noted that it had been two weeks since Schumer and Democrats responded to the latest compromise offer from the White House.

When asked if the latest shooting could make Democrats budge, he said, “I’m not sure.”

“But it’s a dangerous game and people are going to get hurt,” Thune said.

The funding impasse has caused the agency to be shuttered for nearly one month, with little hope in Congress that a deal can be reached soon. Republicans have warned that because of President Donald Trump’s war on Iran, there could be increased threats in the U.S. that DHS would have to handle without proper funding.

Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, R-Wyo., blasted Schumer and Democrats for continuing their blockade and accused them of trying to “peel apart” DHS.

“They are so beholden and detached to the far-left component of this nation that they don’t care about everybody else,” Barrasso said. “We’ve had terrorist attacks right here in the homeland — two in the last two weeks.”

Democrats spent much of Thursday trying to fund the agency one piece at a time in a bid to carve out funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), for which they have sought stringent reforms that Republicans say go too far.

Fox News Digital reached out to Schumer’s office for comment on whether the latest shootings would change his calculus on the shutdown, but it did not immediately respond.

Instead, Schumer released a statement on the synagogue shooting that did not mention the agency or the funding battle.

“Antisemitism is not theoretical. It is real, and it is deadly,” Schumer said. “In solidarity with good-thinking people everywhere, it must be faced head-on, denounced and defeated. Every one of us has a responsibility to not just stand up against this pernicious hate, but to fight it wholeheartedly, no matter where it comes from.”
