Trump Signs Bill to End Longest Government Shutdown in U.S. History
The longest government shutdown in U.S. history has come to an end.
In the late hours of the night on Wednesday (November 11), President Donald Trump signed a funding bill that will reopen the government after a 43 day shutdown, the longest in the history of the U.S.
Earlier this week, eight Senators from the Democratic caucus voted with the Republicans, breaking with the Democrats, to advance legislation to bring an end to the shutdown.
The vote went to the House on Wednesday night and the final vote was 222-209 in favor of funding the bill, with several Democrats voting for it.

Before signing the bill, Trump called for the end of the filibuster.
“I also want to call for a termination to the filibuster so that this can never happen again. If we had the filibuster terminated, this would never happen again. And don’t forget, we have another date coming up in the not too distant future. We can never let this happen again,” he said (via CNN).
Amid all of this, there are new claims about Trump and Epstein.
