- Senate Democrats are expressing significant discontent with a proposed funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
- The uproar is partly fueled by recent unrest in Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by a border patrol agent.
- This controversy is threatening to disrupt negotiations and increase the likelihood of a government shutdown.
- The existing political truces within the Senate over DHS funding have broken down, complicating discussions further.
- A government shutdown looms if an agreement on the DHS funding bill is not reached by the upcoming Friday deadline.
