SUMMARY: Lawmakers are racing to prevent a government shutdown as funding was set to expire at midnight. A proposed plan that would have extended government funding for three months was rejected by both House leaders, despite backing from President-elect Donald Trump. The plan included disaster aid and support for farmers, alongside a two-year debt ceiling raise but failed to gain sufficient support. Both Republicans and Democrats expressed frustration with the deadlock, fearing the consequences of a shutdown, which could leave federal workers, including military personnel and TSA agents, without pay. A decision is urgently needed to avert this scenario.

In a hastily convened evening vote punctuated by angry outbursts over the self-made crisis, the lawmakers failed to reach the two-thirds threshold needed for passage

SUMMARY: Good Friday morning! It’s a beautiful start to the day with temperatures in the 40s, reaching 70 this afternoon under sunny skies and light winds. Most of Texas will experience good weather today, though there may be some fog in the valley early. Looking ahead, Saturday remains pleasant, but by Sunday, clouds and moisture will increase ahead of a storm system bringing showers and possible storms by Christmas Eve. The weather should clear by Christmas Day, with highs in the 70s, lower humidity, and sunshine. Expect cooler temperatures and fog Sunday and Monday mornings, with another rain chance on Thursday.

SUMMARY: A Lyft driver, Delvar Burke, is recovering at home after a brutal attack while driving on Monday night. He was assaulted from behind by passenger Anne Williams, 19, who slit his throat with a knife, attempted to choke him with a wire, and stole his car. Burke, who suffered significant injuries, was rescued by a nearby woman who called 911. Williams fled but was later arrested after crashing the stolen vehicle. He is now in Denton County Jail facing charges of aggravated robbery and has an outstanding warrant for encouraging a child to perform a sex act.

Once they reached the drop-off location, the Lyft rider says he was attacked from behind, first with a knife and then a cable or wire to try and choke him.
