A left-wing activist group that received millions of dollars from the Soros family’s organization is spearheading a pressure campaign to push Democratic senators to vote against funding the government and force a partial shutdown.
Indivisible — the organization behind many of the recent “No Kings” protests and other demonstrations part of the so-called “resistance” against President Donald Trump — has embarked on a recent effort to goad Senate Democrats to not come to a bipartisan funding agreement with their Republican colleagues and the president. The group’s website currently hosts a form enabling people to easily contact their Democratic senators by phone, complete with a script of what to say.
The group’s non-tax-deductible entity, Indivisible Project, has received a total of $7.6 million in grants from the Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) over the past eight years, according to Indivisible’s website. OSF is a grantmaking network which left-wing billionaire George Soros founded in 1993 and his son, Alexander Soros, currently chairs.

The U.S. government shut down much of its operations on Wednesday as deep partisan divisions prevented Congress and the White House from reaching a funding deal, setting off what could be a long, grueling standoff that could lead to the loss of thousands of federal jobs.
There was no clear path out of the impasse, while agencies warned that the 15th government shutdown since 1981 would halt the release of a closely watched September employment report, slow air travel, suspend scientific research, withhold pay from U.S. troops and lead to the furlough of 750,000 federal workers at a daily cost of $400 million.
Trump, whose campaign to radically reshape the federal government is already on track to push out some 300,000 workers by December, warned congressional Democrats that a shutdown could clear the path for "irreversible" actions including cutting more jobs and programs.
The shutdown commenced hours after the Senate rejected a short-term spending measure that would have kept government operations afloat through November 21.

Re: Let the shutdown begin….
The U.S. federal government is officially in a partial shutdown because Democrats want illegal aliens to get free healthcare
What's Next?
Negotiations are likely to resume, potentially leading to a short-term continuing resolution to restore funding.
Likely Timeline?
Negotiations could resume as early as today, with the Senate potentially voting again on a continuing resolution to fund the government through November 21, 2025. Past shutdowns have lasted from a few days to over a month, with an average of about 8 days since 1977.

Re: Let the shutdown begin….
This is important--money is fungible--and it's why the Democrat and media lie that health care is not going to illegals is so preposterous. Consider, for instance, two state Medicaid programs--Ohio and New York. New York gives Medicaid to illegals and Ohio doesn't.
When the government gives billions of dollars to New York for Medicaid, that frees up state money in New York that can then be spent on illegals.
It's like if you give a mobster $100 but he PROMISES you he won't spend the money to buy a gun and commit a crime. Well, he takes the $100 you gave him and buys food, and then takes the money he would have spent on food and uses that money to buy the gun instead. This is what "money is fungible" means.
Additionally, because medical services are limited in supply, when an illegal accesses health. care, it drives up the cost for everyone. So New Yorkers are paying a higher price for medical services, and the federal government is subsidizing those higher prices.
So everyone in the media, from George Stephanopoulos to Jake Tapper, repeating these Democrat talking points, is engaged in the Democrat propaganda war.
Democrats shut down the government to give health care money to illegal aliens. It's really that simple.

A super PAC closely aligned with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is reportedly urging Democrats to hold firm in the government shutdown fight, arguing that the party is winning the political messaging battle, according to a memo obtained by Axios.
The memo from Senate Majority PAC (SMP), one of the top groups backing Senate Democrats, warned that it would be a “mistake to take the pressure off Republicans,” according to Axios, and that Democrats’ stance on protecting affordable health care is winning with voters. The report comes as the government enters its seventh day of a shutdown, already the fourth longest in the country’s history, with government programs and federal employees feeling the impact as benefits and pay lapse.
The internal guidance framed the shutdown as a political opportunity to define the 2026 midterms around health care costs and inflation, issues Democrats believe favor them, according to Axios. “Don’t flinch,” the memo instructed Democrats.
