Summary
After much debate, consternation and wheeling and dealing, House Speaker Mike Johnson has navigated a series of bills to provide more than $90 billion in war funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. Republicans were much more likely to oppose the bills, in particular the Ukraine funding, but Johnson pushed the funding through primarily with the help of Democrats.
Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Jimmy, Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss whether Democrats will help Johnson retain his speakership if members of the Freedom Caucus move to oust him.
Plus segments on the Senate renewing warrantly surveillance to allow the intelligence agencies to continue spying on Americans and Tucker Carlson claiming that those intelligence agencies have the entire Congress terrified about their darkest secrets coming out.
Also featuring Mischa Paullin!
