🎙️ Congress is back from break, and there is a ton to do. The fellas start with Democrats holding up Trump nominations, and you won’t believe how easy it is to stop progress on any of them. The Progrum dives into what can be done with bonus interviews featuring Sec. Chris Wright and Kevin Hassett.
⚡A️ government shutdown is possible, but the fellas explain if it’s likely. What will Chuck Schumer demand from Republicans to work a deal? And is that even possible with their base? We cover what a shutdown means and if it will happen — plus the National Defense Authorization Act.
🇺🇦🇮🇱 Funding for Ukraine and Israel are two of the five most important decisions facing Congress and there is a lot of pressure on politicians to change course. We cover how Congress should be tackling the funding on The Hill, and point out the land mines that await them.
