| 0:56.3 | Good morning, I'm Anna Palmer. Good morning, I'm Anna Palmer. And I'm Jake Sherman. And welcome to The Daily Punch. Brought to you by Punchable News. It's Tuesday, November 18th, 2025. Let's get into the mix here. Are your Washington headlines of the day? Number one, the latest with the Epstein files. What's next? Number two, intra-party drama for House Democrats. |
| 1:02.3 | And number three, political heirs running for office in 2026. All right, Jake, let's get to it. |
| 1:12.4 | We are leading Punch Bowl News a.m. with the big story of the week here in Washington, the Epstein Files and the big about face, of course, that President Donald Trump has done now pushing, supporting the discharge petition in the House. But that has not only made |
| 1:19.0 | it kind of a difficult position for House Republicans, particularly Speaker Mike Johnson, who for |
| 1:24.2 | weeks tried to stop this from moving forward, but now it's making an uncomfortable shift to what's going to happen in the Senate. Well, yeah, that's exactly right. They didn't want to touch this thing with a 60-foot pole, the Epstein files. 60-foot pole. Wow, that's the biggest poll I've ever heard in that. They treated this like, as we wrote in here, I don't know, Bres probably changed it, a toxic nuclear waste. That's how they treated this thing. And now it's going to pass. It could pass unanimously in the House. What a turn of events. I don't know how many people will be absent today, but you could get a 400-something-to-zero on this discharge petition. So it's going to pass the House. It's going to go to the Senate. And the Senate's going to pass it in some way, shape, or form. Either Republicans accept a Democratic unanimous consent request. Republicans either maybe try to use it themselves. Maybe it's a roll call vote in which it passes. But it's going to pass. And Trump says he's going to sign it. |
| 2:18.8 | And by the way, if I were a Senate leader, I would think hard about trying to, you see it on either |
| 2:24.8 | side, because if you ask for a roll call vote, by the way, some people who voted against it |
| 2:30.3 | the first time will be able to vote for it this time. And they want to, Jake. |
| 2:34.4 | I mean, you know, that's the point. And will, but will the other side of the aisle want to |
| 2:39.1 | allow somebody who voted against it get, get quote unquote right with it? And I don't know the |
| 2:46.0 | answer to that. So Mike Johnson and Steve Scleiths both said yesterday that they want the Senate to fix this thing. |
| 2:52.9 | If they fix it, it's going to come back to the House. |
| 2:55.3 | But the interesting thing is this. |
| 2:56.9 | So Trump is going to sign it. |
