Summary

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is pushing for former President Donald Trump's hush money trial judge, Juan Merchan, to fine Trump $3,000 for allegedly violating a gag order by disparaging witnesses in the case. Meanwhile, Congressman Thomas Massie and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene are urging Congressman Mike Johnson to step down from the Speakership, with Massie even suggesting that Johnson pre-announce his resignation akin to former Speaker John Boehner. Despite these calls, Speaker Johnson has firmly stated his intention not to resign. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has criticized House Republicans for impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over "policy disagreements," cautioning that such actions set a concerning precedent for Congress. BlazeTV contributor Eric July joins the discussion to provide insights into the current turmoil in Congress. Today's Sponsors: Relief Factor Visit https://relieffactor.com or call 1-800-4-relief.
