CARL AZUZ, CNN 10 ANCHOR: Hi, I'm Carl Azuz for CNN 10 and Fridays are awesome.

We're thankful to have you watching as we wrap up the week with stories on airport security and an ultra marathon coming up.

First, a partial U. S. government shutdown turns 21 days old on Friday.

Tying the record length of time for when the government's been partially shut down.

It's been that way because the president and Congress haven't agreed on funding for it.

President Donald Trump and most Republicans want that funding package to include about $5.7 billion for the construction of a wall or barrier between the U. S. and Mexico.

Most Democrats opposed the construction of the wall so they don't want that money included in the funding package.

Yesterday President Trump visited McAllen, Texas, a town at the U. S. -Mexico border to make his case.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: The American people will hear directly from our front line border agents about the tremendous flood of illegal immigration, drug trafficking, human trafficking.

They just go where there's no security, where you don't even know the difference between Mexico and the United States.
