Gouvernement Shutdown - Washington DC

Gouvernement Shutdown - Washington DC

The U.S. Capitol building is seen reflected in the window of a building in Washington, D.C., the United States, on October 5, 2025. As the U.S. federal government entered a shutdown -- the first time in nearly seven years -- the confrontation between President Donald Trump's administration and the Democratic Party has further escalated. The Trump administration has cut funding and programs in Democratic-led states and sought to dismantle federal agencies led by Democrats. Meanwhile, Democrats have shown a rare sense of unity, hoping to reverse declining approval ratings through the fight. This new round of partisan conflict over the government shutdown is markedly different from previous ones, characterized by greater hostility and malice that has pushed partisan strife to new heights. It highlights the deepening political polarization in the United States while inflicting greater harm on the American people. Photo by Li Rui/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

City workers dismantle tents and remove personal belongings during a sweep of a large homeless encampment in Los Angeles on July 31, 2025. The operation takes place under increased media scrutiny and in the presence of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who observes the process and speaks briefly with displaced residents and officials. The sweep is part of a broader initiative aimed at clearing public spaces and connecting unhoused individuals with shelter services, though critics argue it disrupts fragile community networks and fails to address root causes. Dozens of people are forced to move, many uncertain about their next steps. The presence of city leadership highlights the growing urgency and political stakes surrounding homelessness in the city.
