Summary

Senator Rick Scott calls into the show to re-emphasize the contrast between his home state, Florida, and New York City, which is falling into Mayor Zohran Mamdani's disgusting abyss of socialism, which apparently means piles of dirty snow and trash leaking into the streets for weeks on end. Scott also dives into the now resolved short-lived government shutdown and why the Save America Act is of the utmost importance. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
