President Trump will speak in the Rose Garden about the partial government shutdown at 1:30 p.m ET on Friday -- an indication that a possible short-term deal may have been reached to end the stalemate, even as reports emerged that there is no funding for a border wall in the deal.
"The President will make remarks regarding the shutdown in the Rose Garden today at 1:30pm," Sanders tweeted. It was not immediately clear what Trump would say, but White House officials told Fox News that the situation was still in flux.
Meanwhile, another well-placed source told Fox News that negotiators were close on a continuing resolution to fund the government through February 15th with no funding for the wall. It would mark a significant win for House Democrats, despite Trump saying Republicans would not "cave" just a day earlier.

I like the fact that it is being held in the Rose Garden and he is causing the fake news to freeze their tookus’ off.
Make ‘em wait another hour!
“It would mark a significant win for House Democrats”
It will be the end of the “Republican” party, which will now shrink to a rump group of corporate shills trying to shuck and jive a few dimes out of a Congress composed of people loyal to Mexico.
The new Estados Unidos: controlled by Chapo Guzman.
if he caves he can kiss my tookus
What shutdown?
Look at the GOP do they EVER act like they want to be in power..they like things when Democrats control everything..they could have gotten the wall in Trump’s first year, they didnt want it, they never wanted the wall
Makes me absolutely sick to say this but I guess Nancy Pelosi is equal to the president after all, huh?
Yeah, no wall after two years but we discomfited some reporters! #winning
Pelosi is the President for all intents and purposes.
It’s 2:10
OMG people relax ,you hear he’s about to say something and you jump off the deep end ,LOL
Dems always win..they have the media controlling the narrative. When Obama was President and the Govt was shut down, the commie media convinced people it was Republicans fault too
You are a damn fool for making such a stupid post
Dems always stick together.
Those six Repukes yesterday sealed Trump’s fate.
I won’t be surprised now if they suddenly start backing Romney to primary Trump.
1000%....funding the gov’t for two weeks then pointing out the rats refuse to budge in negotiations gives him leverage..
Just now on the radio,
“CBS News is reporting that MSNBC is reporting that “sources say” a deal has been reached that does not include any funding for the Wall.”
Temporary re-opening of gov to allow oligarchs unfettered travel to/from Superbowl!
[I won’t be surprised now if they suddenly start backing Romney to primary Trump]
Romney couldn’t take down the most unpopular POTUS since Carter... you think he can lay a hand on the MOST POPULAR POTUS since Reagan???
There are a lot of them here at FreeRepublic . . . #NeverTrumpers pretending to be Pro-Trump just so they can be considered as good old boys (and girls) here.
I never said Republicans were smart.
