The latest news from around the world with host Fredricka Whitfield. Passed. A little better prioritization of spending. I certainly dont like playing shutdown politics. And how damaging would that be for republicans ahead of the november races . I dont think it would be helpful, so lets try and avoid it. Reporter now, fred, sources close to so mume of my cnn colleagues on capitol hill have heard from people close to the republican leadership.
