ABC News: “President Trump threatened to shut down the entire southern border with Mexico and cut off aid to Central American countries if his demands for border wall funding aren’t met in the coming weeks.”
“The government has been partially shut down since last week over an impasse between Trump and Democrats over funding for a proposed security wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The government shutdown, which has kept hundreds of thousands of federal employees out of work, is expected to extend into the new year.”
