    Is the Dem Shutdown Coalition Fracturing? + Chairman Brett Guthrie Makes Gambling News

    🎙️ House Democrat leadership insists there are "zero cracks" in their party's strategy, a claim that evaporates under the slightest pressure. We highlight the growing defiance from within the democrat ranks, including their largest constituency: the federal employees union, which is now openly demanding the government be reopened. When confronted with basic questions from journalists, leading Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Kamala completely fall apart. Maybe they’re just not used to getting a tough journo question. ⚡ C️ourt proceedings require you to wear pants, and this extends to a telecommute. We address this pants-off-officer, plus an Italian wine importer with a strong opinion on the New York mayor's race (and class distinctions in Italian surnames). 🐘 Chairman Brett Guthrie covers high-stakes policy, from the $70 billion in fraud in entitlement programs to the colossal energy needs for AI. The Chairman also reveals that his committee is looking closely at the integrity of sports betting and the NCAA's ill-timed decision to allow college athletes to bet on professional sports, especially in light of recent pro-league scandals. 00:00 - Hakeem's "Zero Cracks" Lie 04:38 - The Federal Employees Union Demands the Government Reopen 06:45 - Cracks in the House: Rep.

    What’s driving the Democrat civil war? + Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll Joins the Progrum!

    The fellas are reveling in the Democratic Party's absolute chaos, starting with the government shutdown. Anonymous Democratic senators confess they would vote to reopen the government but are "terrified of getting the guillotine" from the deranged grassroots—a direct admission that their base is driving the insanity. The Civil War's second front is a primary race for a chance to challenge Susan Collins in Maine, and it is a certified freak show. Chuck Schumer's establishment candidate, an ancient, unrelatable governor, is facing off against a Bernie bro who called himself an "Antifa super soldier." Maybe Graham Platner would get further in politics with less 1942 SS tattoos.  Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the aggressive, transformational change happening at the Army. Driscoll doesn't hold back, detailing the utter waste of taxpayer money caused by decades of calcified bureaucracy, like how the Army pays double for chicken because of an absurd 1930s mandate. He explains how he and the Chief of Staff are cutting $48 billion in expected spending to prioritize the modern warfighter, focusing on next-generation technology, and why President Trump’s “peace through strength” approach and air cover have been vital to these efforts. 00:00 - Government Shutdown Drama: "Guillotine" Fear06:06 - Shutdown as Virginia Strategy09:50 - Merkley's 15-Hour Yawn-Fest & Katherine Clark's "Leeeverage" Gaffe16:10 - Maine Senate Primary: Nazi Tattoos, Antifa Soldiers, and the Establishment's Pick44:48 - King of the Hill: George Conway vs. Sarah Longwell58:33 - Secretary of the Army Dan DriscollOur Sponsors:➢Tell Republicans in Congress stop Dick Durbin's takeover of your credit card before it's too late - https://electronicpaymentscoalition.org/➢Big tax-exempt hospitals abuse the 340B markup program, tell congress to fix 340B.https://phrma.org/340Bmarkup➢Find out the true power of America's oil and natural gas.
