House Republicans appear to have reached a new agreement on government funding, mere hours after President-elect Donald Trump and influential allies like Elon Musk publicly criticized the initial bipartisan deal, leading to its collapse. This new plan comes as the deadline for government funding approaches, aiming to prevent a shutdown.
President Trump weighed in.
SUCCESS in Washington!
Speaker Mike Johnson and the House have come to a very good Deal for the American People. The newly agreed to American Relief Act of 2024 will keep the Government open, fund our Great Farmers and others, and provide relief for those severely impacted by the devastating hurricanes.
A VERY important piece, VITAL to the America First Agenda, was added as well – The date of the very unnecessary Debt Ceiling will be pushed out two years, to January 30, 2027. Now we can Make America Great Again, very quickly, which is what the People gave us a mandate to accomplish.
All Republicans, and even the Democrats, should do what is best for our Country, and vote “YES” for this Bill, TONIGHT!

The original deal, which included a range of provisions from government funding to disaster aid, was derailed when Trump demanded that any spending bill should also address the debt ceiling, effectively increasing it before his administration begins.
His statement emphasized the need for a streamlined bill focused on aiding farmers and disaster victims without the “Democrat giveaways” present in the earlier proposal. Trump’s critique was echoed by others, including Musk, who threatened to support primary challenges against any Republicans backing the initial bill.
The revised plan, as confirmed by key GOP figures, is designed to be more palatable to conservative Republicans. It focuses on providing aid to farmers and those affected by natural disasters while maintaining fiscal responsibility. This shift comes after intense negotiations, with House Speaker Mike Johnson and his team attempting to reconcile the demands of different factions within the party.
The intervention of Trump and conservative voices like Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy has significantly influenced the legislative process, highlighting the power of external influencers in shaping political outcomes. The situation underscores the tensions within the Republican party as it navigates the transition period before Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2025.

Democrats have criticized the GOP for reneging on the initial agreement, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries warning that breaking the bipartisan deal would have severe consequences, particularly for working-class Americans and disaster victims. The debate over the debt ceiling’s inclusion in this funding bill adds another layer of complexity, with some arguing it’s premature to address the ceiling now.
As the clock ticks towards a possible government shutdown, the new proposal aims to buy more time for a comprehensive funding solution while aligning with the conservative push for fiscal restraint and the immediate needs of disaster-stricken areas and the agricultural sector.
The evolving situation reflects broader themes of governance, the influence of political figures outside formal government roles, and the challenges of bipartisan cooperation in a politically charged environment.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
