The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is set to shut down on the evening of February 13 due to a political deadlock over immigration enforcement, according to Jin10. The temporary funding for the department is expiring, and with Congress on recess next week, the duration of the shutdown remains uncertain. The funding bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives on February 3 is set to expire on February 13. On February 12, U.S. senators are scheduled to vote on the funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security. Sources indicate that if the bill fails, as expected, Republicans plan to attempt passing at least one continuing resolution. They aim to propose a temporary funding bill lasting four to six weeks, but have not yet decided which specific bill to pursue. However, they require support from Senate Democrats to advance any such measures, and the minority Democrats stated on February 11 that they have no intention of cooperating on a temporary funding bill.#USDHS #shutdown #politicaldeadlock #immigrationenforcement #fundingbill #USHouseofRepresentatives #Senatevote #Republicans #SenateDemocrats #temporaryfunding
🚀 U.S. Senate Fails to Advance Homeland Security Funding Bill
#USSenate #HomelandSecurity #FundingBill #Shutdown #Immigration #SenateVote #ChuckSchumer #JohnThune #USPolitics
The U.S. Senate was unable to advance a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security on Thursday, raising concerns about a potential shutdown. According to RTHK, the temporary funding at current levels is set to expire on the 13th of this month, leaving the department at risk of closure. The Senate vote resulted in 52 in favor and 47 against, falling short of the 60 votes needed to move the bill forward. Senate Democrats expressed dissatisfaction with the latest negotiation terms offered by the White House. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer stated that Democrats are clear in their stance and do not support maintaining the status quo regarding current immigration enforcement. With both the Senate and House of Representatives set to recess for several days, U.S. media widely believe that a shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security is almost inevitable. However, Senate Republican Leader John Thune mentioned that if an agreement on the funding bill is reached, senators would be required to return to the Capitol within 24 hours.#USSenate #HomelandSecurity #FundingBill #Shutdown #Immigration #SenateVote #ChuckSchumer #JohnThune #USPolitics
🚀 ZeroLend Announces Gradual Shutdown After Three Years of Operation

ZeroLend, a multi-chain lending protocol, has announced its decision to gradually cease operations after three years of development and management. According to ChainCatcher, the team has faced challenges in maintaining the sustainability of the protocol in its current form.
In recent times, several chains initially supported by ZeroLend have become inactive or experienced significant liquidity declines. Additionally, some oracle providers have withdrawn their support, complicating the reliable operation of markets and the generation of sustainable revenue. As the protocol expanded, it attracted increased attention from malicious actors, including hackers and scammers. These factors, combined with the inherently low-profit and high-risk nature of lending protocols, have resulted in prolonged financial losses for ZeroLend.
The team's primary focus now is to ensure users can safely withdraw their assets. Users are strongly advised to promptly remove any remaining funds from the platform.#ZeroLend #lendingprotocol #blockchain #cryptocurrency #decentralizedfinance #shutdown #liquidity #oracleproviders #hackers #scammers #financialloss #usersecurity #cryptotrading #withdrawal

The shutdown of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security continues to impact airport security services. According to RTHK, a spokesperson for the department stated that due to funding shortages and staff limitations, the Transportation Security Administration's PreCheck and Customs and Border Protection's Global Entry services will be suspended starting Sunday morning local time. Additionally, services such as airport security escorts for members of Congress and all non-disaster-related responses by the Federal Emergency Management Agency will be halted.
Homeland Security Secretary Norm described the decision as difficult but necessary in a statement. The shutdown stems from a lack of consensus between the two parties in Congress over immigration enforcement reforms, leading to the expiration of temporary funding for the department without renewal.#HomelandSecurity #AirportSecurity #TSA #PreCheck #GlobalEntry #CustomsAndBorderProtection #FEMA #Shutdown #Congress #ImmigrationReform #FundingShortage

U.S. Democratic leaders have announced that negotiations with the White House to restore operations for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have reached a deadlock. According to Jin10, the funding for the department expired on January 30. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer stated that after the Democrats proposed a plan to end the shutdown last week, they received no response, accusing the White House of making no concessions on key issues. These issues include the requirement for federal immigration enforcement officers to remove masks during enforcement and obtain search warrants before entering residences. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries emphasized that the DHS appropriations bill will not progress until there is movement on these matters, noting that there has been almost no substantive communication with the White House recently.#HomelandSecurity #USPolitics #Democrats #WhiteHouse #Shutdown #ImmigrationEnforcement #DHSFunding #ChuckSchumer #HakeemJeffries #GovernmentDeadlock #FederalImmigration #Congress
