After months of struggling to find agreement on just about anything in a divided Congress, lawmakers are returning to Capitol Hill to try to avert a government shutdown, even as House Republicans consider whether to press forward with an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

A short-term funding measure to keep government offices fully functioning will dominate the September agenda, along with emergency funding for Ukraine, federal disaster funds and the Republican-driven probe into Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings.

Time is running short for Congress to act. The House is scheduled to meet for just 11 days before the government’s fiscal year ends on Sept. 30, leaving little room to maneuver. And the deal-making will play out as two top Republicans, Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana, deal with health issues.

    Which one though? Countries in Europe are having fascism issues too like Italy, Poland, and probably more.

          Like most right wing parties across the world, appeals to traditionalism, xenophobia, and deregulation of industry.

            Who do your xenophobes hate? In the US, it’s largely Mexicans due to the southern border, but I don’t think Germany hates Austria and Switzerland.

      Really? Poland is the country you went for? Not Italy, with the actual Fascist offshoot party in power and the actual granddaughter of Mussolini in their parliament?
