 Senate Reaches Deal to Reopen Government
Following a 40-day federal government shutdown, a bipartisan group of senators has negotiated a deal expected to garner the necessary votes in the Senate to reopen the government.
The agreement, brokered by centrist Democrats including Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) and Republicans led by Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), emerged from a Sunday night Democratic caucus meeting.
A key element of the deal is a promise secured by Senate Democrats for a mid-December vote on extending expiring Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies. The agreement also guarantees back pay and rehiring for federal employees laid off during the lapse.
The legislative package will also contain three full-year appropriations bills (for the Departments of Agriculture, Veterans Affairs, and Military Construction) while funding all other agencies through Jan. 30, 2026, via a continuing resolution.
Before reaching President Trump for his signature, the measure must still pass votes in both the Senate and the House, where several Democrats have pledged to oppose it.

BBC Heads Resign Over Doctored Trump Speech
The Director-General of the BBC, Tim Davie, and the CEO of BBC News, Deborah Turness, both resigned Sunday amid a growing scandal over the selective editing of a Donald Trump speech in the BBC’s flagship investigative program, Panorama.
Davie took “ultimate responsibility” for “mistakes made” at the public broadcaster after a leaked internal memo alleged the program used spliced clips from Trump’s Jan. 6, 2021, speech to falsely suggest he called supporters to “fight like hell,” omitting his actual call to “peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.” Compare the original and the doctored clip here.
The whistleblower’s memo also revealed that the documentary showed footage of people marching on the Capitol, which was, in fact, recorded an hour before Trump even began his remarks, creating the misleading impression that the march was a direct response to his speech. Follow live updates here.

Mysterious ‘Fedora Man’ at Louvre Unmasked
The mystery man spotted outside the Louvre after last month’s $102 million jewel heist—dressed in a fedora, vest, and tie—has been revealed as a 15-year-old boy.
Pedro Elias Garzon Delvaux, a French cosplayer, was visiting the museum with his parents when the viral photo, taken just after the robbery, was snapped. It sparked online buzz as people mistook him for a stylish detective or a possible insider. See the photo here.
In reality, Delvaux says he was unaware of the theft and just happened to be in the right place at the right time, wearing the right outfit.
A fan of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, Delvaux often wears vintage outfits to school and museum outings. After days of viral buzz and online theories, he stepped forward, saying, “With this photo, there is a mystery—so you have to make it last.” Follow his Instagram page here.

Independent. Honest. Reader-Owned.
For two years, The Flyover has grown because readers like you have done more than just open our emails—you’ve believed in what we’re building. Now we’re asking our community to help us take the next step: to make The Flyover truly reader-owned, built and sustained by the very people who read it.
We’ve launched a 12-day sprint to reach 2,000 Flyover investors—and as of this morning, we’re just 347 away from that milestone. Each new investor represents more than a number—it’s a Flyover reader stepping forward to say, “Independent, trustworthy news matters—and I want to be part of it.”
3 Reasons to Invest
1. Keep The Flyover reader owned.
From day one, our goal has been simple: the people who read The Flyover should also have the opportunity to own it. This keeps us accountable only to you—not to advertisers, political donors, or outside corporations. Together, we’re proving there’s a different way to build media in America.
2. Smaller investment, bigger community.
We’ve lowered the minimum investment to just $500, making it even easier for more readers to join as co-owners. Whether you invest a little or a lot, you’re helping strengthen a growing network of The Flyover readers who believe in balanced, fact-based reporting.
3. Protecting honest, fact-driven journalism.
Every investment helps keep The Flyover independent and focused on what matters most: clear, fair, and factual storytelling that earns your trust every morning. In a time when so many media outlets are chasing clicks, we’re chasing credibility.
Why It Matters
When we launched The Flyover, we knew people were hungry for something different. What we didn’t know was how deeply our readers—you—would stand with us.
Every new investor isn’t just adding to our numbers—they’re helping shape the future of honest journalism. They’re helping ensure The Flyover can grow into more states, reach more readers, and continue telling the stories that matter most to common-sense Americans.
We’re now 347 investors away from reaching 2,000 reader-owners—a milestone that would send a powerful message: that readers, not corporations, can build something lasting, credible, and worthy of trust.
If you believe in what we’re doing—if The Flyover has become part of your morning routine, your sense of connection, or your hope that real news can make a comeback—will you help us reach 2,000 investors?
Let’s prove, together, that the future of media belongs to the people who read it.
