BTCCSquare news:
President Donald TRUMP escalated tensions with Democratic lawmakers, accusing them of pushing for $1 trillion in new spending to fund healthcare for undocumented immigrants, transgender surgeries for minors, and other controversial policies. The accusations came as the odds of a government shutdown surged to 73% on prediction platform Polymarket.
Trump canceled a scheduled meeting with Congressional Democrats, stating that refusing to engage could 'possibly be productive.' He signaled willingness to reschedule if Democrats 'get serious about the future of our Nation.' The political standoff has heightened market uncertainty, though no direct cryptocurrency implications were noted in the remarks.
