Stand firm on the wall payment Mr. President.
Do not back down, on this issue.

Rest:
Moreover, critics have already slammed the upcoming tax plan before its release. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin alleged that the plan would increase the countrys national debt and add to the deficit. Other reports indicated that carbon tax could serve as an offshoot of the tax plan. Democrats favor this idea, while Republicans oppose the notion. So far, there are no answers as to whether or not the tax plan will be revenue neutral. The President recently announced that the plans rate will range between 15% and 20%, but other reports have cited 28%.
The gridlock and discord in Washington should serve as alarming to each and every American. A government shutdown is a mark of failure and the Friday deadline does not give Washington officials much time to get it together. The confusion associated with tax reform is a very negative indicator, given the catastrophe that ensued from health care reform. Regardless of party affiliations, leaders in Washington need to put egos aside and work together for what is in the best interests of the American people who voted them into office. Hopefully, the Vice Presidents early return will engender a positive effect on the success of the spending bill and tax reform.

"Speculations about the swift change of the Vice Presidents plans have been attributed to the Friday deadlinethat Congress must meet in order to pass a new spending package."
The GOP Has a Nuclear Option ... ... A proposal is being pushed by some Senate Republicans that would seek to ensure that a House-passed bill could be passed intact by only a simple majority of senators.
How would that work?
Well, the vice president, of course, is the president of the Senate.
The thinking goes that if the Senate parliamentarian ruled that parts of the bill cant be folded into budget reconciliation, Vice President Mike Pence could simply overrule that.
Sen. Rand Paul wants the White House to make that commitment now:That alone, I think, would break the logjam, he told reporters Thursday.
Perhaps, but thats not all it would break.
This would be the executive branchs changing the rules of the upper legislative body.
Filibusters could be broken, perhaps in any circumstance, at the whim of the vice president.
In honor of a certain former veep, that would be a BFD.
In comment number 1 of The GOP Has a Nuclear Option ...
... "Under the Budget Act of 1974, which is what governs reconciliation, it is the presiding officer, the vice president of the United States, who rules what is permissible on reconciliation and what is not, Cruz said.
And that is a conversation I have been having with a number of my colleagues. ...

The same reason Obama is back on American soil proper. If the defecate hits the rotary oscillator soon with the norks, keeping them safe and out of harms way and or risking their capture or worse, is only common sense.

The impending doom of a government shutdown awaits them... And by "impending doom" of a "government shutdown" (which really isn't because only about 20% shuts down) they mean a paid vacation for some Government Employee's a few tourists inconvenienced at national parks and monuments.

New moon tomorrow night. Strategic significance in re: the current NORK issue perhaps?

There is no “impending doom” of a shutdown, and Trump wins, as I showed in my American Spectator article yesterday.
