weekend in the basement clash against relegation rivals hamburg. i'm michel henry thanks for joining us. for us government has begun a federal shutdown on the day president trump marks one year in office the senate failed to reach a spending deal needed to keep the government running halting all but the most essential operations it's the first ever shutdown to happen while the same party the republicans controlled both congress and the white house and the recriminations have already begun. it was a night of partisan politics at the capitol despite hours of debate and last minute deal making there was no agreement on a government funding deal the a's are fifty and the days are forty nine and the

motion is not agreed the republican leadership couldn't find the sixty votes needed to keep the government open the government shutdown maine's hundreds of thousands of public servants may have to stay home. following the senate vote the white house said the democrats were behaving like obstructionist loses its words were echoed by the republican senate laid out what we've just witnessed on the floor was a sonic over assertion that democrats are shovel. millions of americans for the sake of irresponsible political. a government shutdown was one hundred first of all double the democratic senate lead that chuck schumer said he tried his utmost to give the republicans what they wanted he was prepared to offer donald trump money for his border wall if the president would soften his hard line on immigration no one who deserves the blame for the position we find ourselves

in more than president trump he walked away from two bipartisan deals including one today in which i even put the border wall on the table. the democrats wouldn't back down on one key demand they wanted guarantees on the future of eid hundred thousand undocumented immigrants brought to the u.s. is children republicans say that's holding ordinary people hostage but with most americans supporting a deal on the children democrats are calculating the voters will back them. are washington correspondent explains how u.s. lawmakers inability to reach a deal will affect government services. well it has happened congress has not passed a spending measure until midnight and the government of the united states is now in a shutdown each party explaining the other one of causing this crisis the truth is

it has never been about policy it has been the whole time only about politics each party with their respective political strategy it's a partial shutdown that means the essential services of the government will remain the justice department will keep working although with less workers social security checks will continue the military operations will continue and of course to come where is will be working especially to end this shutdown some federal agency is that will be closed are the department of education and the environmental protection agency also the funding for the children's health insurance will be put on hold until it can be extended all of this happening on the one year anniversary of the inauguration of donald trump as president of the united states of america. let's take a closer look at the internet national impact the u.s. government shutdown could have joining us now in the studio is having rika head of

the transatlantic program for the german council on foreign relations having welcome to the morning show the midnight deadline passed without enough votes in the u.s. senate to keep the federal government running why should we care here outside the u.s. i mean it's our strongest ally it's an important vibrant economy so headless government in washington would be a catastrophe for many specs of the policies of a of a corporation of course this bill first focus the attention of the president towards washington even more and sometimes you need an odd looking president if a crisis comes and then of course a shutdown means the government can really run you remember. president obama couldn't attend a very important summit in asia in two thousand and thirteen because of the shutdown and we can't afford the president trumps trump is planning to come to the devils economic summit to europe and these are important venues he has to attend

there so we'd be happy if this could be avoided despite republicans controlling both the white house and congress the u.s. government as as you know has shut down what does this mean for president trump i mean. imagine this is his first interview anniversary in office and. i think the democrats knew that this might happen then of course it taints the day the day he should take balance and look at his achievements and this is why they are so friendly trying to put the blame on the democrats the democrats have of like loaded the bill with nonfinancial issues especially the very important agreements legislation and this is exactly what the republicans did earlier so to blame them as being irresponsible is hypocrisy but it means for him that he cannot prove that he is. do you make it that he cannot actually reach out to congress and make these kinds of compromises that would be necessary for this. thank you so the

u.s. government technically ran out of money of midnight on friday the moment trump began marking one year in office so let's take a moment to look back on that here one of the defining features of his presidency is his propensity for governing by twitter earlier we spoke to former cia director and then secretary of defense leon panetta we asked him what implications trump's use of social media house. i cannot imagine i was i was chief of staff to the present united states to bill clinton i could not imagine being a chief of staff and trying to determine what the strategy is for a particular day and then go to work and find out the president at five am started tweeting thing that that totally undermine the ability to have some kind of strategy for that particular day you're going to have to spend your time

basically repairing the damage that the president did from his tweets it is it is very unstable it's very erratic there's no reason that the president has to suddenly get up in the morning and tweet without developing some kind of stable policy approach to deciding what is the strategy for this administration it cannot just be a tweet you can't do foreign policy by tweeting. so later on panetta says trump's tweeting is a damaging and ineffective has the international community been able to come up with an effective strategy for interpret in his tweets first one has to understand that his twittering is effective to reach out to his electorate and this is very important these are not doctors these are of course government documents but they're not treated like this in his mind he wants to reach out to his listeners first we have to understand that the policy is made not by twitter but by the

actions of the people around him by the agencies by the white house and i think there is a lot of good cooperation going on so the strategy is to reach out to the reasonably reasonable people around him and and press that they have sort of credible long term policy that we can actually rely on having rica thank you for joining us the u.s. military has put countering china and russia at the center of a new national defense strategy the u.s. defense secretary jim mattis called the two powers growing threats and lamented an erosion of military readiness and capability to confront them it's the latest sign of shifting american priorities after more than a decade and a half of focusing on the fight against business militants the twenty eight hundred national defense strategy calls for an increase in the size and budget of u.s. armed forces which is supported by the president. not to some of the other stories making news around the world egypt's president abdullah fatah sisi says he will run
