THE LEAD STORY - 'BIG WIN' FOR REPUBLICANS AS DEMS 'CAVE' AND INFIGHT ON SHUTDOWN: President Trump struck an optimistic tone on Twitter after he signed a bill to reopen the government late Monday night after a three-day federal government shutdown led to Senate Democrats backing off their opposition ... "Big win for Republicans as Democrats cave on Shutdown," Trump tweeted. "Now I want a big win for everyone, including Republicans, Democrats and DACA, but especially for our Great Military and Border Security. Should be able to get there. See you at the negotiating table." Congress has agreed on a measure that will fund the government until Feb. 8. Some items on the top of the agenda for Republicans and Democrats over the next three weeks are Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and border security. Trump has said he wants a deal in place to legalize the country's 700,000 Dreamers. Despite getting Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell , R-Ky., to allow debate on the immigration issue, Democrats faced immediate backlash within their own ranks for not pushing harder on the immigration law. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who backed Monday's agreement during a speech on the chamber's floor, was criticized for his handling of the negotiations. He was seen by some centrists in the party as putting too much emphasis on immigration, while those on the left blamed him for agreeing to the deal without a DACA win. BREAKING NEWS - EARTHQUAKE OFF ALASKA: A preliminary 8.2 magnitude earthquake was recorded early Tuesday about 155 miles off of Chiniak, Alaska, prompting a tsunami warning, the U.S. Geological Survey said ... The entire U.S. west coast is under a tsunami watch, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said. The center said "widespread hazardous tsunami waves were possible." THE CURIOUS CASE OF THE MISSING TEXT MESSAGES: Attorney General Jeff Sessions has vowed to find out why five months of crucial text messages between two FBI agents under scrutiny for their anti-Trump views were not preserved ... "We will leave no stone unturned to confirm with certainty why these text messages are not now available to be produced and will use every technology available to determine whether the missing messages are recoverable from another source," Sessions said in a statement provided to Fox News. "If we are successful, we will update the congressional committees immediately." The missing messages from agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page span a crucial window, between the presidential transition and the launch of Robert Mueller's Russia probe -- where both officials previously were assigned. More than 50,000 texts were exchanged between Strzok and Page, Sessions revealed. A PUSH TO RELEASE THE MEMO: House Republicans are hopeful that a four-page memo allegedly containing "jaw-dropping" revelations about U.S. government surveillance abuses will soon be made public ... Rep. Dave Joyce, a Republican from Ohio, told Fox News on Monday that the intelligence committee plans to work on releasing the document but warned that once Americans see it, they'll "be surprised how bad it is." The process of releasing the memo could take up to 19 congressional working days which puts its release around mid-March. The document's release would first need approval from House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., who can decide to bring the committee back together for a vote. If the majority of the committee votes to release the memo, it would then be up to President Trump. FOX NEWS EXCLUSIVE: Vice President Mike Pence told "Fox News @ Night" host Shannon Bream that "peace is now more possible" with the Trump Administration's decision to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem by the end of 2019 ... Pence, talking to Bream live on location in Israel, said it was important to give the U.S's cherished allies a "hard date" for the embassy move. "President Trump meant what he said and said what he meant," Pence said. The vice president's announced decision to fast-track the move of the U.S. embassy drew angry denunciations from Arabs who were forcibly removed from the hall during his speech before Israel's parliament. #METOO, SAYS ONE SUPREME COURT JUSTICE: U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has three words for the women who shared their stories of abuse to spark the #MeToo movement: "It's about time." ... Before Ginsburg slipped on her iconic judicial robe, the 84-year-old feminist from Brooklyn confessed she had her own brush with sexual harassment and gender inequality. Clutching a microphone between both hands, Ginsburg told a crowd at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah about an incident that allegedly occurred when she was a law student at Cornell University in the early 1950s.
