 @Caleb James DeLisle shut down what exactly? 
 Stop passing US government funding bills, i.e. take away Biden's allowance. 
 @Caleb James DeLisle tought they had funding secured to 2025 
 They have authorization to borrow infinite money until 2025, but only to service budgets which are approved. And they currently only have a budget to keep the government open for 45 days. 
 @Caleb James DeLisle and after 45 cames more 45 and so on 
 Well that's where it gets interesting, because unless they can approve another Speaker of the House, they can't pass anything. 
 @Caleb James DeLisle yea very interesting and they get it done just to save the nation
