House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries rejected a one-year extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits -- drawing a red line on his health care demands.

A bipartisan group in the House has a proposal to extend the ACA tax credits for one year, but Jeffries wants a permanent extension.

"It's not acceptable. It's a non-starter. It was introduced by the same people who just permanently extended massive tax breaks for their billionaire donors. Think about that," Jeffries said at a news conference in the Capitol on Day 7 of the shutdown.

Jeffries said the ACA tax credit extension is a "battle for everyday Americans" and that this is "another example of Republicans throwing out baseless lies to try to defend their indefensible position, which is that they've assaulted the health care of the American people."

Later, though, Jeffries said he'd have an "open mind" regarding an extension of the ACA tax credits "on the merits of what is presented in good faith."

Jeffries dismissed a suggestion to cap or not allow new enrollees to have the subsidies.

"Let's be clear about one thing here again, the notion that a group of people who just jammed these permanent tax breaks down the throats of the American people for their billionaire donors, suggesting that the Affordable Care Act tax credits should not be made available to small business entrepreneurs, to working families, middle-class Americans and everyday Americans, is the irony of all ironies, and if that's their positions, they can take a hike," Jeffries said.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called on Trump to get more directly involved in negotiations over government funding during remarks on the Senate floor, directly blaming House Speaker Mike Johnson and calling him a "massive roadblock" in negotiations.

"Ending this shutdown will require Donald Trump to step in and push Speaker Johnson to negotiate because without the president's involvement, Speaker Johnson and MAGA Republicans in the House are increasingly dug in," Schumer said on the floor.

"Yesterday President Trump claimed that he is talking with Democrats on fixing health care. He now clearly knows that he has to show the American people at least some fig leaf of caring, so he said he is talking with Democrats in the health care issue. Only one problem: that's not true," Schumer said, echoing a statement he released on Monday night.

"I'm not sure what the president was talking about yesterday but he certainly hasn't called my office, or Leader Jeffries. Still, Jeffries and I happily welcome a chance to talk with the president and with Republicans to sit down and seriously negotiate with them so we can address the health care crisis facing Americans. The sooner the better. But it takes two sides to negotiate," Schumer said.

Trump said that if the government shutdown continues, there will be "substantial" job cuts and that "a lot of those jobs will never come back."

When asked about what programs will be eliminated, Trump said "We'll be announcing it pretty soon," saying that he would "be able to tell you that in four or five days."

"We have a lot of things that we're going to eliminate and permanently eliminate," Trump said while meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.

Trump said Democrats have handed him the opportunity to "take out billions and billions of dollars of waste, fraud and abuse" on a "silver platter."

Trump called the ongoing government shutdown a "kamikaze attack" by Democrats, saying "They're the ones that started it."

"This is like a kamikaze attack. They have nothing to lose," Trump while taking questions before a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
