00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.

00:04The U.S. government is going to play the closing crisis again.

00:08This time, it's not because of the collapse of the two parties,

00:10but because Trump, who will return to the White House in a month,

00:14is singing in the background.

00:16Because the federal government's funds will run out on December 20,

00:20in order to avoid the government's suspension,

00:22the U.S. Congress announced on the 17th

00:24a short-term funding bill that the two parties generally agree on.

00:27It will provide funds for the federal government until March next year.

00:31However, after the bill was released,

00:33U.S. President Donald Trump and ally Musk

00:35expressed their opposition.

00:37Trump insisted on increasing a clause,

00:41which is to increase U.S. debt before he takes office.

00:46Under Trump's pressure,

00:48the two parties were forced to change a temporary new bill three hours before the vote.

00:52But this bill, which was rushed out in the last minute,

00:56ended up with 174 votes in favor and 235 votes against.

01:01It was a failure.

01:03It was not approved by the House of Representatives.

01:05It's worth mentioning that not only did the Democratic Party oppose it,

01:08but even the Republican Party, which Trump belongs to,

01:10had 38 people vote against it.

01:13Unless the new round of funding measures

01:15can be approved by the House of Representatives

01:17before Friday night,

01:19otherwise the U.S. government

01:21is likely to start partial suspension on Friday night.

01:25At that time,

01:27all funds from border enforcement to national parks

01:29will be suspended.

01:31The salary of more than 2 million federal employees

01:33will also be suspended.

01:35Before Trump took office,

01:37Trump has once again turned things around.

01:40Some analysts believe that

01:42Trump's pressure to increase U.S. debt

01:44was to make it easier for him

01:46to pass his promised large-sum tax cuts

01:48after he takes office.

01:51But the Democratic Party criticized

01:53Trump's tax cuts will greatly benefit

01:56the world's richest people,

01:58such as Musk,

02:00but the U.S. will have to pay

02:02additional U.S. dollars.

02:05On this vote, the yeas are 174,

02:08the nays are 235,

02:10one voting present,

02:12two-thirds not being in the affirmative,

02:14the rules are not suspended,

02:16and the bill is not passed.

02:18U.S. President-elect Trump's

02:20U.S. Debt Relief Act failed in Congress.

02:2238 Republican senators

02:24and almost all Democratic senators

02:26voted against the bill.

02:28The bill was rejected,

02:30putting the U.S. government in a crisis.

02:32U.S. Senator-elect Mike Henshaw

02:34was questioned by the media

02:36and accused the Democrats

02:38of opposing the bill

02:40and putting the government in a crisis.

02:42Again, the only difference on this legislation

02:44was that we would push the debt ceiling

02:46to January of 2027.

02:49I think it's really irresponsible

02:51for us to risk a shutdown

02:53over these issues on things

02:55that they have already agreed upon.

02:57I think you need to be asking

02:59them the questions about that.

03:09What's the next step?

03:11We will regroup and we will come up

03:13with another solution, so stay tuned.

03:18Now it's not just the government's money.

03:20Even Johnson's position as president

03:22is on the verge of collapse.

03:24This election failure

03:26has also undermined Johnson's authority

03:28in the House of Representatives

03:30and has boosted the debate

03:32over the replacement of the president.

03:34Republican senators

03:36are openly challenging

03:38the idea of allowing Musk

03:40to be the next president

03:42of the House of Representatives

03:44and even saying that only if Musk

03:46is re-elected will there be a chance

03:48for him to be re-elected.

03:50The U.S. Congress on Sunday

03:52will be held on January 3rd,

03:54and a new president will have

03:56to be elected.

03:58Although the law does not require

04:00a new president to be elected

04:02in the House of Representatives,

04:04every president in U.S. history

04:06was born in the House of Representatives.
