Democrats Plot Government Shutdown Over ICE Funding

Trending Politics News
By Cullen McCue
January 17, 2026

Congressional Democrats are increasingly telegraphing a plan to force another government shutdown over U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) funding.

Senior Democrats in both the House and Senate have increasingly suggested that they will do so following the January 8 shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a local “ICE Watch” activist who was shot in Minneapolis after accelerating towards an agent standing directly in front of her car. Despite video evidence of the shooting confirming the agent’s positioning, the event sparked several days of ongoing protests and at times rioting in the Twin Cities region.

The shooting has fueled Democrat-led efforts to impose restrictions on ICE as part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding negotiations, with some lawmakers threatening that failure to do comply with their demands will lead to another partial government shutdown.

An impasse over current funding stems from the need to pass appropriations bills for the fiscal year that began on October 1, 2025. Congress has already approved several spending packages, but the DHS bill remains stalled.

The deadline for resolving this is January 30, 2026, after which a continuing resolution (CR) or full agreement must be in place to avoid a shutdown affecting non-essential DHS operations, including parts of ICE. While essential ICE enforcement activities would continue due to prior funding from the 2025 budget, a shutdown could disrupt broader government functions, such as pay for certain federal employees and services in other sectors.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

As long as it also shuts down 'free shit' funding for fraudsters, I'm OK with it.

Balance the budget, and the Democrat Party ceases to exist.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Democrats will do anything, anything at all, to disrupt Trump and to punish America.
The very last thing Democrats want is a strong and secure and prosperous American Nation.
They will do anything to prevent that.

That's about the only upside to this recurring drama.
