Team welcome to the Freedom Hut on this lovely Wednesday.

We got the budget battle hitting its final stages here. Could the Biden agenda be shattering on the rock soon of fiscal reality?

Or are they going to get the socialist grab bad going? We'll talk about it. Plus generals on Capitol Hill, including Millie, talking about how they told Biden to do the right thing and Biden didn't, but the generals always know, even though they look like a bunch of idiots right now.

And then should parents have any say over what their kids learn in school, Terry McCollough says no down in Virginia.

We've got that for you all of that coming up. Let's let's start today if we can with the budget bill and what's going on there because if this doesn't happen, let's just understand the stakes for a moment here.

Biden administration has accomplished what this year? What has gone well? What is the thing that they could point to and say, you know what? We've really got this. We've really got this one cover. We did a great job.

The the border is a there's no mean tweets. That's actually I think if they were forced producer Mike knows if they were forced to come up with something.

It would be that you don't have someone calling the journalists fake news, which I miss some people hated the Trump tweets. I actually thought the Trump tweets were pretty fantastic. Most of the time.

Occasionally he went a little, but you know, if you're if you're with a brawler, he's going to once a while throw a punch in, you know, hit the barkeep. What he means to hit the the biker, you know, it's it's just not easy. It's not easy to get it right all the time. I don't get it right all the time.

But what's gone well for the Biden administration? Really nothing. And this is reflected. I mean, I'm not just saying this because I feel this way there's actual data here.

Biden began with a 61% approval rating among independence, according to Gallup, not right. We're in crazy.com. According to Gallup. It's been eight months. Now his approval rating with independence is 37%.

Oh, man, I can just I can almost smell like an almost taste that midterm that midterm shall lacking that the Democrats are going to get if this continues going to be amazing.

It's going to be great. But we can't get ahead of ourselves a year is years a long time. Not just in politics in general. I can change in a year. Just think back to what your life was like the fall of 2019 versus what it feels like life has been in the last two years.

I feel like I don't even remember the last two years. It feels like what's even happened? I mean, just been one long. It's been one long, Fauci lecture. Gotta wear your mask. Gotta social distance. More vaccines. A few more. A little more vaccine. A booster. A booster.

I go to sleep at night and like I'm having nightmares about getting another another Fauci lecture. But okay, here's where we are with the Biden agenda. If it doesn't get through reconciliation, if Democrats don't manage to just spend money.

I always feel like why do we got to say drunken sailors? You know, I've known some sailors. They can handle their liquor. Why is it the sailors always get picked on for being drunk? I doesn't seem fair to me. Doesn't seem fair to me. But you know, spend money like like a like a drunken.

Shlub intelligence officer. How about that? I've seen those guys wasted and spending a lot of money too. So here we go. We have an infrastructure package that is tied.

Because of Democrats strategy. You're they're trying to tie all this together with the 3.5 trillion. So remember, it's one trillion infrastructure, 3.5 trillion of whatever Democrats want to spend money on. So we're getting close to, you know, four and a half.

Gotta be five trillion. I'm sure when all said and dumb and you add all the bells and whistles into it. And this is a problem. People understand the economy right now is not what it should be. It's not going where it should be. But this is why you don't want to listen to

the jury. A trick socialist about what to do with strategy. And here is the burn. The Bernie Sanders who owns three houses and this worth several million dollars himself.
