Another year, another threat of government shutdown–only this time, it happened. After Democrats and Republicans in Congress made the new budget dependent on whether Obamacare remained funded, the October 1 deadline at midnight was missed, and the shutdown is in process.
The president’s Twitter page included a series of tweets on the shutdown just minutes after midnight.
They actually did it. A group of Republicans in the House just forced a government shutdown over Obamacare instead of passing a real budget.
