Democrats confront limits of their power in Trump era

Senate Democrats left Washington Friday haunted by a 10 week stretch that exposed their minority weakness and a rift over how to counter President Trump. Senator John Hickenlooper said hard choices divided between backing a spending bill and avoiding a shutdown as party leaders faced sharp internal backlash after Chuck Schumer backed the Trump bill. House Democrats joined in condemning the move saying they would not be complicit in giving broad executive discretion.

Trump Signs Government Funding Bill Ends Shutdown Threat

President Donald Trump signed a continuing resolution funding the government through September. The measure largely preserves Biden era levels, trims non-defense spending by about 13 billion, and raises defense spending by about 6 billion, in a near 1.7 trillion topline. Democratic setbacks and Republican unity followed swift Cabinet confirmations and mass firings by the administration, while Senate leaders and lawmakers debated the political costs of avoiding a shutdown.
