Is a Government Shutdown Inevitable?

from This Week on Capitol Hill Hosted by This Week on the Hill

On this latest edition, TONY PERKINS looks at a possible federal government shutdown at the end of the month; House Majority Leader STEVE SCALISE (R-LA) warns that even with the GOP finalizing a Continuing Resolution, Democrats on the Hill led by Chuck Schumer will try to block the CR “because they oppose anything President Trump wants.” VICTORIA COATES, vice president of The Heritage Foundation, weighs-in on the upcoming “meaningless political theater” at the U.N. when American allies like Australia and France will “recognize” a so-called Palestinian state.” Real Clear Politics.com’s White House correspondent PHILIP WEGMANN recaps fiery hearings in Congress this week, and looks at PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP’s successful meeting in the U.K. with King Charles III and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. And Congressman CHIP ROY (R-TX) decries Democrats and leftist organizations trying to exploit the tragic murder of CHARLIE KIRK to once again push “gun control” in an attempt to silence conservative voices across America. All that ahead on Salem’s THIS WEEK ON CAPITOL HILL, sponsored by AARP, releasing at 10AM Eastern Saturday on the Salem News Channel. More here: http://thisweekoncapitolhill.com
