Civilian personnel whose work the Defense Department considers essential, or &#8220;excepted,&#8221; will also continue to work, while other civilians are furloughed for the duration of the shutdown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After the government shutdown, all government employees will automatically receive back pay, based on the terms of the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act of 2019,&#8221; said Seamus Daniels, a fellow for Defense Budget Analysis at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.<\/p>\n<p>Active-duty service members won&#8217;t get paid on time unless Congress passes a separate piece of legislation, as it did in 2013 with the &#8220;Pay Our Military Act,&#8221;

whether a shutdown is averted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have a clean, short-term bipartisan CR sitting at the desk,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s up to them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-update__footer\">\n              <span class=\"post-update__author\"><br \/>\n                By Kaia  Hubbard              <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-update__share post-update__share--desktop\">\n<ul class=\"sharebar\">\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-a8ea8fa4\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-facebook lazyload\" title=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-facebook\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?related=cbsnews,CBSPolitics&amp;via=CBSPolitics&amp;text=Senate%20to%20vote%20on%20House-passed%20measure%20to%20fund%20the%20government&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-a8ea8fa4\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-twitter lazyload\" title=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-twitter\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?title=Senate%20to%20vote%20on%20House-passed%20measure%20to%20fund%20the%20government&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-a8ea8fa4\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-reddit lazyload\" title=\"reddit\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--reddit\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-reddit\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n            <textarea class=\"sharebar__textarea\">https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote\/#post-update-a8ea8fa4<\/textarea><\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-link lazyload\" data-link-share-options=\"{\" shareurl=\"\" data-component=\"[\" link-share=\"\" title=\"link\"><br \/>\n                  <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--link\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-link\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--d4aec5ca-2bcb-4a9e-b786-a457bb89ec88\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-d4aec5ca\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago\" datetime=\"2025-09-30T09:05:53-0400\"><br \/>\n              Updated 40m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">Trump posts fake video of Jeffries and Schumer outside White House; Jeffries calls it &#8220;disgusting&#8221;<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>Hours after meeting at the White House with the top two congressional Democrats, President Trump posted a fake video to Truth Social mocking the lawmakers.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/115290424560405640\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">video<\/a>, which appeared to be generated by AI, shows Schumer and Jeffries standing outside the White House, but splices in fake audio of Schumer claiming Democrats&#8217; plan is to &#8220;give all these illegal aliens free health care.&#8221; Jeffries, meanwhile, is shown with a moustache and a sombrero, and the Mexican hat dance plays in the background.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview later Monday with MSNBC&#8217;s Lawrence O&#8217;Donnell, Jeffries called the video &#8220;disgusting,&#8221; adding: &#8220;Bigotry will get you nowhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Schumer responded to the video by <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SenSchumer\/status\/1972842636231995818\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">writing on X<\/a>: &#8220;If you think your shutdown is a joke, it just proves what we all know: You can&#8217;t negotiate. You can only throw tantrums.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump has posted fake images on Truth Social in the past. Over the weekend, he posted a cartoon of him firing his foe, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. The president hasn&#8217;t attempted to fire Powell.<\/p>\n<p>CBS News has reached out to the White House for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-update__footer\">\n              <span class=\"post-update__author\"><br \/>\n                By Joe  Walsh              <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-update__share post-update__share--desktop\">\n<ul class=\"sharebar\">\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-d4aec5ca\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-facebook lazyload\" title=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-facebook\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?related=cbsnews,CBSPolitics&amp;via=CBSPolitics&amp;text=Trump%20posts%20fake%20video%20of%20Jeffries%20and%20Schumer%20outside%20White%20House%3B%20Jeffries%20calls%20it%20%22disgusting%22&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-d4aec5ca\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-twitter lazyload\" title=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-twitter\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n<p>            <a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?title=Trump%20posts%20fake%20video%20of%20Jeffries%20and%20Schumer%20outside%20White%20House%3B%20Jeffries%20calls%20it%20%22disgusting%22&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Flive-updates%2Fgovernment-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote%2F%23post-update-d4aec5ca\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-reddit lazyload\" title=\"reddit\" target=\"_blank\" data-component=\"popups\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--reddit\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-reddit\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"sharebar__button-container sharebar__button-container--service  \">\n            <textarea class=\"sharebar__textarea\">https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote\/#post-update-d4aec5ca<\/textarea><\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"sharebar__button sharebar__button--type-link lazyload\" data-link-share-options=\"{\" shareurl=\"\" data-component=\"[\" link-share=\"\" title=\"link\"><br \/>\n                  <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"sharebar__icon sharebar__icon--link\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"#icon-social-link\"\/>\n      <\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-trump-congress-senate-vote\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 6m ago How would a government shutdown impact the U.S. military?
