Tensions are high in Washington as the U.S. government remains partially shut down. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivers a detailed fact-check against Democrat claims, emphasizing that the Democrats’ stance on reopening the government hinges on providing free healthcare to illegal immigrants.
Leavitt confirms that President Trump has not spoken directly with Democratic senators during the shutdown but remains in contact with House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune. She warns that if the shutdown continues, layoffs of federal employees could become an "unfortunate consequence," although no layoffs have occurred so far.
