About
Six massive bills that make up roughly 70% of discretionary federal
spending  — including the military — need to be passed by Friday in
order to keep the government open. It is a predicament Congress has
found itself in over and over again the past few months, but, as
appropriations reporter Caitlin Emma tells Playbook co-author Ryan
Lizza, the challenge is different this time: These are some of the
biggest and hardest bills to fund, and a final showdown is looming. 
Plus, a new Ipsos-POLITICO poll reveals a conviction may not doom Donald
Trump’s presidential hopes, but it could do real political damage. That,
plus the rest of the news you need to know today.

Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza interviews appropriations reporter Caitlin
Emma.
