Congress rushes last-minute bill to avert govt shutdown
The New Indian Express Vijayawada
|December 22, 2024
FACING a government shutdown deadline, the Senate rushed through final passage early Saturday of a bipartisan plan that would temporarily fund federal operations and disaster aid, dropping President-elect Donald Trump's demands for a debt limit increase into the new year.
-
House Speaker Mike Johnson had insisted Congress would "meet our obligations" and not allow federal operations to shutter ahead of the Christmas holiday season. But the day's outcome was uncertain after Trump doubled down on his insistence that a debt ceiling increase be included in any deal if not, he said in an early morning post, let the closures "start now".

THAILAND'S FRAGILE STABILITY
INCE 2023, Thai politics has changed direction several times. In under three years, three different prime minis- ters from separate political families and parties have led the country. This instability has deepened the divide between those who support popular representation and those who favour the conservative monarchical and military order that has shaped Thailand for almost a cen- tury. The latest election in February 2026 has heralded the new government under Anutin Charnvirakul and the Bhumjaithai Party.
