“I’m at DEFCON 4 of my shutdown meter” on Capitol Hill; A step closer to a TikTok deal
Description
With just five days before a potential government shutdown, the White House raised the stakes for lawmakers to get a deal done. In a memo from the Office of Management and Budget obtained by NBC News, the Trump administration is threatening to fire some federal employees if the government isn’t funded by the deadline. But with Democrats and Republicans locked in a stalemate, will the government keep business going or put these federal workers out of work? Chief Capitol Hill Correspondent Ryan Nobles joins host Yasmin Vossoughian to break it all down. Also, after years of suspense for TikTok and its users, President Trump announced a deal that could transfer majority ownership of the app to Americans. NBC News Morning News Now anchor Savannah Sellers joins the show to explain how we got here and what this means for your content.
