The House on Friday will make another attempt at passing legislation to avert a government shutdown, staging a vote on a revamped spending proposal that excludes the debt limit hike initially demanded by President-elect Trump, three sources told The Hill.
The package would fund the government at current levels through March 14, extend the farm bill by one year and appropriate billions of dollars in disaster aid and assistance for farmers — the same provisions that were in Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) plan B proposal that failed on the House floor Thursday night.

Why not, Mike? Let it shut down until the new Congress takes over.
Moving in the right direction, no more debit ceiling extensions!
If the gov’t shuts down then the biden admin has to stop entering regulations into the federal register. Who’s side is Johnson really on?
Starting to feel like a Modified Limited Hang-out.
The only people that freak out about shutting it down are lying Dems and pearl clutching fake Republicans.
Who cares if some bloated, overpaid, no work feds don’t get their next check? Media that no one listens to any longer.
“Oooh, bureaucrat Bob will starve”.
Saying “we won’t have a shutdown” is exactly how to NOT negotiate for a better budget.
The possibility of a shutdown was his key negotiating card in that the D’s fear it
Mike is serving a purpose.
Nothing wrong with continuing to try and fail.
It shows the Republicans are trying to do something and the Democrats are the stumbling block.
As Trump has pointed out the weight should be on the Democrat in the White House who officially holds this republic’s highest office.
I agree with you let the shutdown go until Trump is sworn in.
Then Trump gets credit for ending it and it only further destroys any credibility the Democrats might have not already squandered.
They get paid. Just not on time. Their pay is held till it gets settled and then they receive all their backpay.
Who's side is Johnson really on?

In September, Biden signed a 3 month CLEAN CR. But Dems didn’t win the election and this was a very clever “Merry Christmas” to Republicans.
what are these imaginary regulations
“Who’s side is Johnson really on?”
They’ve got something on him, some leverage that they don’t want to expose.
Shut it down

“Nothing wrong with continuing to try and fail.”
As long as he makes sure to “fail”.
Shut it down.

—No new spending
On a vid on Jesse Waters program, Mike Lee indentified the 4 bastards behind all this.
Jeffries
Schumer
McConnell
Johnson.
They wanted to handcuff the Trump agenda for the next year.
Farm bill pays farmers NOT TO PLANT CERTAIN FOODS like potatoes, cabbage, grapes, and multi type GRAINS.
So much farmland was destroyed, made toxic by Helene/Milton. No roads, or small bridges. Private people formed supply lines, Mule Packers is one. They took the kids Christmas up a few days ago. Many still are living in tents, with no utilities. Amish built small single room homes, some POS pol condemned them. Till the public had a hissy fit.
The biggest farmers is the like of Bill Gates. Who get funded.
The old guy who grows a huge Ripley, TN tomatoes lost $200,000 last year. Weather related, it got to cold and wet at the wrong time.
Has he told the democrats? Schumer already said he’d shut it down if democrats weren’t involved in negotiations (translation: if the democrats didn’t get their poison pills put back in.)
