Good morning, everybody. Happy Monday.

Have an amazing show for everybody today. What do we have, Crystal?

Indeed, we do a group of centrist Dems caved. So there is a shutdown deal.

We will get to all of that.

Rokane is also going to join us. He is calling for Chuck Schumer to resign over this.

Just coming right out and saying it. So going to get his thoughts on all of this.

There's also a bunch of weird policy proposals coming out for the Trump administration.
