The Senate passed a stop-gap spending bill on Wednesday night in an effort to keep the government funded and prevent a partial shutdown at the end of the week.A shutdown hasn't been averted just yet: The measure will still need to be approved by the House of Representatives and signed by President Donald Trump before it can take effect.But the Senate's passage of the short-term measure brings Washington one step closer to staving off a shutdown of some key federal agencies, set to expire at midnight on Friday, just days before Christmas.The Senate worked late into the night on Wednesday evening to pass the measure, which had appeared to have hit an impasse earlier in the day over a push to advance public lands legislation.Earlier on Wednesday, McConnell introduced the measure which would fund the remaining parts of the government through February 8, 2019.McConnell's proposal has the backing of the top congressional Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, and top congressional Republicans have indicated they are optimistic that the President would sign the measure.Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, the current no. 2 highest-ranking Senate Republican, predicted on Wednesday that Trump would sign it."He will sign a clean CR," Cornyn told CNN.Pelosi, the House Democratic leader who is poised to reclaim the speaker's gavel in the new Congress, said Wednesday afternoon that she supported the measure."This is a missed opportunity to pass full-year funding bills now," Pelosi said in a statement. "However, Democrats will be ready to fully, responsibly fund our government in January, and we will support this continuing resolution."Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said during a speech on the Senate floor, "Thankfully, President Trump appears to have backed down from his position for billions in direct appropriations for a border wall."Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have made clear they don't want a shutdown, but had been at an impasse over the President's demand for billion in funding for his long-promised wall at the US-Mexico border.Democrats have made clear that figure is a non-starter for them and any spending bill would need at least some Democratic votes to pass in the Senate.Of course, no spending measure is final until the President signs it.But on Tuesday, the White House appeared to step away from the brink of a shutdown.White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Tuesday morning during an interview with Fox News that, "We have other ways that we can get to that billion (for a border wall)."Members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus and other conservative allies of the President plan to give brief speeches on the House floor Wednesday night, however, urging Trump not to abandon his quest for border wall funding.They include: Mark Meadows of North Carolina, Jim Jordan of Ohio, Paul Gosar of Arizona, Steve Pearce of New Mexico, Jody Hice of Georgia, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, Andy Biggs of Arizona and Morgan Griffith of Virginia.Despite opposition from the Freedom Caucus, however, the House should still have the votes to still pass the continuing resolution, assuming most, if not all, Democrats support it, since it has Pelosi's blessing.But even as members of the Freedom Caucus are poised to urge Trump not to abandon his quest for border wall funding, White House officials say it's likely the President will do just that -- and sign a short-term spending bill to avert a partial government shutdown.The President has been unusually quiet about the issue on Wednesday, holding his tongue as some conservative commentators and lawmakers blast him for abandoning his commitment.But two White House aides said the President likely has no choice but to sign a temporary funding measure to keep the government open until February 8. The aides say the White House is intentionally not signaling what Trump will do, but there does not appear to be talk inside the West Wing of blocking it.White House counselor Kellyanne Conway hinted earlier that Trump is leaning this way when she told reporters at the White House the President will "take a look at" the continuing resolution, though she attempted to frame any punt as something other than a concession from the White House.All this comes a week after the President said he'd be "proud" to shut down the government, so delaying the funding fight until Democrats retake the House next year is a fairly clear concession -- and a risky one. Although Republicans clearly don't have the votes to support his request. 4573

The Weather Channel says ‘Jeopardy’ needs to get its directions straight. The network said Friday that the popular game show asked people to identify the East Coast winter storms known as nor'easters with a clue that said it was so-named because it came from that direction. But the Weather Channel's Jim Cantore says that's not so. The storm's winds usually come from the northeast. The storms themselves generally barrel up the East Coast from south to north. There's been no response from ‘Jeopardy’ about the rain thrown on their parade. 553

The Trump administration will make a case in court to end a longstanding settlement governing detention conditions for immigrant children, including how long they can be held by the government.A hearing is scheduled before a federal judge Friday in Los Angeles over the so-called Flores settlement. The administration contends the 1997 agreement should be terminated since authorities have since issued new rules for custody conditions for children caught on the border.But immigrant and youth advocates say the rules fail to honor the settlement terms and would let the U.S. government keep children locked up indefinitely and in facilities that aren’t licensed by the state.The rules are one of a series of measures taken by the administration to crack down on asylum seekers on the Southwest border. 814

The suicide of Jeffrey Epstein is bringing attention to what employees say is a broader problem at short-staffed budget-constrained federal prisons where employees who aren't prison guards are doing guard duty and overtime shifts regularly.Attorney General William Barr said Monday that "serious irregularities" were found at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, long thought to be a well-run facility that has been used to house high-profile prisoners who require highly secure conditions.In the case of Epstein, at least one of the two employees on duty at the time was not part of the regular detention workforce but was filling in as a guard, according to a person briefed on the matter. The person's regular position is not publicly known.Budget cuts and hiring freezes first put in place at the beginning of the Trump administration have taken a toll at law enforcement agencies including the federal Bureau of Prisons, employees say.After years of complaints, Barr lifted the hiring freeze in April.But employees say the measures the bureau has had to take to live with budget restraints have taken a toll, including at the MCC.One of those measures used is called "augmentation" and allows for workers who were hired as teachers and cooks to be trained to fill in at posts normally manned by trained detention officers.One of the guards who was on duty during Epstein's death was filling in for regular guards."It's due to understaffing. It's due to not having enough correctional officers," Serene Gregg, president of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 3148, which represents employees at the MCC."They would be performing the functions of correctional officers," Gregg said.The Bureau of Prisons declined to comment and referred to Barr's comments.Push to put Epstein in general populationEpstein's attorneys, who spent as many as 12 hours a day meeting with him, had pushed the prison to move Epstein into the facility's general population, a person briefed on the matter said. One of the arguments they made was that he was doing well and that he could use an improvement in his living conditions.Epstein's lawyers didn't respond to a request for comment.The decision to move him from suicide watch occurred after the prison staff conducted daily psychological assessments and, according to the person briefed on the matter, determined it was safe for him to be returned to the prison's special housing unit, which is a section more restricted than general population.When Epstein was taken off suicide watch on July 29, days after his first suicide attempt, he was returned to the facility's special housing unit, where normal protocol calls for him to be housed with a cellmate and to be checked on every 30 minutes.Epstein's cellmate was moved out on Friday, a day before Epstein was found dead, a person briefed on the matter said. In the hours before his death was discovered, there were no checks made, the person said.Both guards were working overtime shifts, but it's unclear whether that was mandatory. One person familiar with the matter said both employees volunteered. Union officials say that the overtime was mandatory.Gregg claimed it's not uncommon at the MCC for employees to work 17-and 18-hour-days and are not allowed to refuse the mandatory overtimes."A lot of them are working mandatory overtime three or four times a week," Gregg said. "There's no one to relieve you at end of an eight-hour shift." 3477

Tokyo Olympic organizers repeated their message again at the start of meetings with the IOC: the Summer Games will not be waylaid by the coronavirus that is spreading from neighboring China. Organizing committee President Yoshiro Mori says: “I would like to make it clear again that we are not considering a cancellation or postponement of the games." The Olympics start in just over five months. The virus this week cancelled a Formula One race set for April in Shanghai. It has wiped out track meets, golf tournaments, soccer matches, and almost all sports in China including Olympic qualifying events. It is also keeping Chinese athletes from traveling to qualify. 680
