Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confronted ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos on Sunday for calling Republicans "terrorists" during the 1995 government shutdown . Stephanopoulos asked Bessent on Sunday's "This Week" about the Trump administration's plan to end the ongoing government shutdown. Bessent reminded Stephanopoulos about his own experience handling a government shutdown when he served as an advisor to former President Bill Clinton . "The best way to do it — and look, you were involved in a lot of these in the ’90s," Bessent said. "And, you know, you basically called the Republicans terrorists and, you know, you said that it is not the responsible party that keeps the government closed. And so, what we need is five brave, moderate Democratic senators to cross the aisle, because right now it is 52–3, 52–3. Five Democrats can cross the aisle and reopen the government. That’s the best way to do it, George." SCOTT BESSENT REJEC...

Senate Democrats unveiled their alternative to Republicans' plan to reopen the government that would see an extension to expiring Obamacare credits for one year, asking that Republicans just say "yes."  Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer , D-N.Y., announced the plan in dramatic fashion on the Senate floor Friday afternoon with a backdrop of the Senate Democratic caucus in a bid to show a tangible version of the newfound unity among Democrats since their Election Day sweep earlier this week.  Schumer argued that after 14 failed votes on the House-passed continuing resolution (CR), "It's clear we need to try something different."  He offered to attach a one-year extension to the expiring Obamacare subsidies and to create a bipartisan committee that could negotiate further on how to deal with the subsidies after the government reopened, a clear nod to the GOP's position that negotiations won't happen until the government is reopened .  THUNE SAYS ...
