Saturday, September 30, 2023 Welcome to the weekend! Tomorrow is the first day of October, the official month of spooky decorations. Speaking of spooky things: on this day in 2004, scientists captured the first-ever images of a [giant squid]( swimming around in its natural habitat.

Check out our sponsor, [NativePath](. [Take Off] [Article Icon 1]Federal Government on Brink of Shutdown House Speaker Kevin McCarthy failed to get a [stopgap bill]( passed on Friday—a measure that would have funded the government until the end of October, albeit with 30% cuts to non-defense spending. The deadline [to pass a budget]( is tonight, and the death of yesterday's bill means that a government shutdown is imminent. [Twenty-one]( Republicans voted against the stopgap, citing concerns about funding for the war in Ukraine and southern border security. "I think it’s pretty safe to say that tomorrow at midnight, you know, the lights are gonna go out for a while," Rep. Steve Womack (R-AR) told reporters after a meeting. [Article Icon 2]Senator Feinstein Dead at 90 Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) [died]( on Thursday night. She was the oldest member of the Senate and its longest-serving woman. Before her Senate career began in 1992, she served as the first female mayor of San Francisco. Feinstein [was known]( as a fierce proponent of gun control, abortion rights, and environmentalism, and she referred to the assault weapons ban of 1994 as one of her most important accomplishments. The Senator missed over two months of work this year as she battled shingles—causing much consternation as the Democratic Senate majority ceased in her absence. She eventually announced that she would not seek reelection. California Governor Gavin Newsome is [expected to announce]( a temporary replacement soon. [Article Icon 3]New York City Flooded A record-breaking downpour of rain [fell on New York City]( yesterday. Roadways, apartments, and subways were flooded, and the public transit system was widely interrupted. Seven inches of rain fell in Brooklyn, and John F. Kennedy airport shut down one of its terminals as it was hit with 8.65 inches—the most ever recorded there. [The deluge]( was a remnant of Tropical Storm Ophelia, and Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency in response. A sea lion made the best of the situation by escaping from its flooded pool at the Central Park Zoo. It eventually came back, but not before being [captured on video]( and going viral. ---------------------------------------------------------------
