We appreciate it.</s>LIEU: Thank you, Brianna.</s>KEILAR: We have some live pictures, on the right of your screen, from the White House Rose Garden because President Trump is expected to make a major announcement on the government shutdown, any moment now, as we report that a deal is close to reopen the government.
