21.12.2024 โ‡ข The Night Congress Passed While Market Burned
โŒจThe House approved Johnson's funding bill in early morning hours, defying Trump's opposition. The Senate missed the midnight deadline but passed the measure shortly after, sending it to Biden who signed it by afternoon. The temporary shutdown lasted under three hours.

A parallel crisis unfolded in Magdeburg, Germany, where a vehicle attack at a Christmas market evolved from initial reports of 2 deaths and 60 injuries to 5 deaths, including a 9-year-old, and 200 injuries. Media identification of the perpetrator shifted throughout the day, ultimately settling on a Saudi doctor with German residency and anti-Islamic views.

By evening, NYPD's top uniformed officer resigned amid sexual misconduct allegations, while reports emerged of Rickey Henderson's death at 65. The Treasury's lawsuit against major banks over Zelle fraud protection gained prominence in financial coverage.
