周四,参议院再次未能结束国土安全部(DHS)的停摆状态,尽管有迹象显示可能出现突破僵局的转机,但这一进展促使唐纳德·特朗普总统采取行动。
周四,国土安全部部分停摆进入第41天,参议院民主党人第七次阻挠了国土安全部的资金法案。此前,参议院共和党人在深夜谈判后于当天早些时候提出了新的提议。
随后,特朗普下令国土安全部支付机场工作人员薪资,并指责“他们的‘领袖’——‘哭泣的查克·舒默’”明确了民主党人的立场,“即站在‘犯罪非法移民’一边,而非美国人民一边。”
特朗普在Truth Social平台上表示:“我将签署一项命令,指示国土安全部部长马克韦恩·穆林立即向我们的TSA特工支付薪资,以应对这一紧急情况,并迅速制止机场的民主党混乱。这并非易事,但我会去做!”
不过,该部门的其他几个组成部分,包括联邦紧急事务管理局(FEMA),仍然没有获得资金。
投票持续开放了数小时,以允许双方继续谈判,但到第五小时时,特朗普已采取行动,下令为运输安全管理局(TSA)提供资金。
怀俄明州共和党参议员、参议院多数党党鞭约翰·巴雷索对记者表示:“我们将投票开放了五个小时,给民主党人一个来到谈判桌前的机会。但他们没有。现在,时间到了。”
当天早些时候,南达科他州共和党参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩表示,他认为双方谈判正在取得进展。
尽管图恩一天前还称向纽约州民主党参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默及其民主党人提出另一项妥协提案“毫无意义”,但共和党人还是这么做了。
图恩表示:“民主党人掌握着我认为是我们最后的、也是最终的[提案]。所以希望这次能解决问题。”
图恩对提案细节守口如瓶。当被问及白宫是否支持该提案时,他表示:“他们一直参与夜间和整个上午发生的来回磋商,我们拭目以待。”
几名离开闭门午餐会议的民主党参议员表示,他们尚未看到或收到关于最新提案的简报,而且会议中并未讨论共和党人的新提案。
一位熟悉谈判的消息人士告诉福克斯新闻数字版:“舒默需要鼓起勇气,做出决定。”
尽管最新尝试失败,但上议院情绪的快速转变,是在结束美国历史上第二长停摆的协议前景似乎更加遥不可及之后发生的。
共和党人向民主党人提供了一个框架,其中将划拨移民和海关执法局(ICE)的资金,但缺乏舒默及其核心小组想要的改革。
康涅狄格州民主党参议员克里斯·墨菲对福克斯新闻数字版表示:“我认为我们核心小组仍然围绕着同一个前提团结在一起:我们不会资助一个不遵守法律的移民执法行动。而且我认为我们还没有看到他们提出满足这一非常简单优先事项的提案。”
ICE资金划拨也是民主党人此前提出的一项提案——共和党人曾一度阻挠该提案。鉴于此,许多参议院共和党人感到沮丧,因为民主党人似乎背弃了他们曾经支持的想法。
“他们在参议院发言,口无遮拦地说我们会[除ICE外资助所有项目],”
Schumer, Dems block DHS funding again, Trump intervenes to pay TSA agents
Trump ordered DHS head Mullin to pay TSA agents as talks continue in the Senate

The Senate was again unable to end the Homeland Security shutdown on Thursday despite signs of a possible breakthrough to end the long-running closure, which prompted President Donald Trump to make a move.
Senate Democrats blocked Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding for a seventh time as the partial shutdown entered its 41st day on Thursday, after Senate Republicans made a new offer earlier in the day after late night negotiations.
Trump then ordered DHS to pay airport workers on, and accused “their ‘Leader,’ Cryin’ Chuck Schumer,” of making it clear where Democrats stand, “and that is, ON THE SIDE OF CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS, AND NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.”
“I am going to sign an Order instructing the Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, to immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation, and to quickly stop the Democrat Chaos at the Airports,” Trump said on Truth Social. “It is not an easy thing to do, but I am going to do it!”
Still, several other components of the agency, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency, are still without funding.
The vote stayed open for several hours to allow for talks between both sides to continue, but by the fifth hour, Trump pulled the trigger on funding the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
“We’ve held the vote open for five hours to give the Democrats an opportunity to come to the table,” Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, R-Wyo., told reporters. “They have not. And now, time is up.”
Earlier in the day, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said he believed talks between the two sides are making progress.
And despite Thune saying just a day earlier that there was “no point” in sending Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Democrats another compromise proposal, Republicans did just that.
“Dems are in possession of what I think is our last and final [offer],” Thune said. “So let’s hope this gets it done.”
Thune remained mum on the details of the offer. When asked if the White House backed it, he said, “They’ve been involved in the back-and-forth that has occurred overnight and all morning, so we’ll see.”
Several Senate Democrats leaving their closed-door lunch meeting said they had yet to see or be briefed on the latest proposal, and that the GOP’s new offer wasn’t discussed during the meeting.
A source familiar with negotiations told Fox News Digital that, “Schumer needs to grow a pair of balls and make a decision.”
The quick shift in mood in the upper chamber, despite the latest failure, came after the prospect of a deal to end the second-longest shutdown in history appeared even further out of reach.
Republicans had offered Democrats a framework that would carve out Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) funding but lacked the reforms Schumer and his caucus want.
“I think our caucus remains united around the same premise: we’re not going to fund an immigration enforcement operation that doesn’t obey the law,” Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., told Fox News Digital. “And I don’t think we’ve seen a proposal from them yet that meets that very simple priority.”
The ICE carve-out is also a proposal Democrats have made before — one Republicans previously blocked. Given that, many Senate Republicans were frustrated that Democrats appeared to back away from an idea they once supported.
“They go on the floor, they shoot their mouths off and say we’ll [fund everything but ICE,]
