It's all bullshit.

Punchbowl News has a good article on what has to happen that I spotted this morning - https://punchbowl.news/article/house/house-coming-back/

The government will NOT "be open" until 45 puts his spiky, 10ft tall chicken scratch on the FINAL versions of these bills. And THAT won't happen until BOTH chambers go through their processes and VOTE on them.

If they JUST vote on the 3 appropriations bills, in BOTH chambers, and 45 signs them, then it will be "over" for those agencies/programs covered by those 3 appropriations ONLY. Everyone else will still be furloughed without a C.R.

AND the (completely) "open" part for everyone else (temporarily) assumes that a C.R. gets passed to cover the OTHER 9 appropriations bills that still have to be drafted and passed (in both chambers). And if they (or some combo of them) DON'T get passed by Jan 30, then it will be Wash. Rinse. Repeat. again, with a need for another C.R.

That's what happened during 45's first term - there WAS a brief C.R. and then when that expired, the longer shut down extended into January - all fighting over money for a damn "border wall" that Mexico was supposed to "pay for".
