00:00Trump to unpaid sailors, don't worry about it.
00:04President Donald Trump had four words for U.S. Navy sailors not receiving paychecks in light of the federal government shutdown.
00:11Don't worry about it.
00:12Trump spoke those words on Sunday at a celebration of the Navy's 250th anniversary aboard the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier in Norfolk, Virginia.
00:21The Hill reported,
00:23As your commander-in-chief, I will always stand for you. I promise you that, Trump said.
00:28You know that. That's why you voted for me in numbers that nobody's ever seen before.
00:33And I want you to know that despite the current Democrat-induced shutdown, we will get our service members every last penny.
00:41At midnight last Wednesday, the federal government went into a shutdown after congressional leaders did not come to a deal on a stopgap spending bill.
00:49Federal employees and service members are furloughed or working unpaid during the shutdown, but will receive back pay once it ends.
00:55The blame for the shutdown has been thrust upon Democrats.
01:00The Department of Health and Human Services' website said mission-critical activities of HHS will continue during the Democrat-led government shutdown.
01:08House Speaker Mike Johnson said Sunday the House did its job in the recent funding battle.
01:13Last month, the House passed what Johnson said was a clean and nonpartisan stopgap spending bill that would fund the government through late November.
01:22The House did its job, Johnson said on CBS's Face the Nation.
01:26The reason that House Republicans are home working in their districts, and I suspect House Democrats should be as well, is because we did that.
01:35We passed a bipartisan, very clean continuing resolution a couple of weeks back now, and sent it to the Senate, he added.
01:42The Senate will vote again Monday on two funding bills that could reopen the government.
