Montgomery County Council President Kate Stewart explains how the county is dealing with federal cuts an shutdown. Plus, Ward 1 D.C. Councilmember Brianne Nadeau on why she decided not to run for reelection.

Montgomery County is home to more than 50,000 federal workers and numerous federal agencies, so residents are feeling the impact of the weeks-long shutdown. Plus, the possibility remains for tens of thousands of federal employees to be fired as the shutdown continues. Local officials are sounding the alarm on rising rates of homelessness and longer lines at food banks. Council President Kate Stewart joined the show to discuss how the county is managing the crisis. She also weighed in on the Council's upheaval and Maryland lawmakers considering calling a special session of the General Assembly to redraw the state's congressional districts. This follows Republican-led redistricting efforts around the country, triggering similar efforts by Democrats, including in Virginia. Stewart said redistricting could flip Maryland's lone Republican seat in Congress. It's currently held by the leader of the House Freedom Caucus, Andy Harris. “We do need to get rid of Andy Harris. As someone who lives in the state of Maryland," she said. "Quite frankly, he does not represent the values of Maryland, and we need somebody else.”The D.C. Council voted this week to roll back tenant rights for some renters in the city. Ward 1 D.C. Councilmember Brianne Nadeau got behind the mic to explain why she thinks this was a bad idea. Plus, we ask Nadeau about her decision not to run for reelection and her "bottle bill."The measure, introduced earlier this year, would add a ten-cent deposit to the price of most beverage containers while creating a system for people to get the deposit back when they return the empty bottles. Nadeau said fees from the big beverage companies would fund the system."It's all about getting litter up, and everybody hates litter. You know, this is the most effective way to cut litter off our streets, off our out of our parks, out of our rivers," she said.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

Your pelvic floor is ready and waiting for you to break up with these habits:Power-peeing – Going to the bathroom is not a race. Forcing urine out or relieving yourself as fast as you can causes more harm than good to your pelvic floor. Hovering – This seems like a natural solution to avoid germs in public restrooms. But hovering over the toilet tenses your muscles which makes your bladder work harder than it needs to.Peeing “just in case” – Went 15 minutes ago? Maybe going once more is a good idea … or is it? Whether you're heading out for an errand or a road trip, going again “just in case” is training your bladder to go more frequently.  If you're ready to take back control of your bladder, you'll want to listen to the latest episode of The Healthiest You podcast. In Part One of our pelvic floor podcast series, you'll hear from urogynecologist Nabila Noor, MD, and rehabilitation clinical specialist Karen Snowden, PT, DPT, with Lehigh Valley Health Network, part of Jefferson Health. How do you know if you have a pelvic floor disorder?

Send us a textWhat happens when a Marine JAG officer trades combat zones for campaign trails? Chris Burnett is finding out firsthand as he runs for Maryland's 6th congressional district.After 22 years in the Marine Corps navigating the complexities of international and operational law across multiple deployments to Iraq, Burnett now faces a different kind of challenge. His military career taught him to translate complex legal frameworks into practical guidance for commanders making high-stakes decisions. Now he's applying those same analytical skills to the regulations strangling opportunity in his community.The spark for his congressional run came from an unexpected place—his wife's attempt to open a small laundromat. As a military family of six settling in Maryland after his retirement, they discovered that Montgomery County's regulations and requirements made entrepreneurship virtually impossible. "There is just no opportunity for families, small businesses, and farmers to push back on what has become an overbearing county and state government," Burnett explains with the measured precision of someone who's spent decades evaluating risk and identifying solutions.His campaign strategy mirrors his military approach—systematic, phased, and mission-focused. From securing seed money to building name recognition in a community where he's relatively new, Burnett embraces the challenge with the same attitude that drew him to the Marines: "It's the hardest thing you can do." He's translating military concepts like accountability and transparency into a political context, explaining to voters why these principles matter for effective governance.For veterans considering public service after military life, Burnett's journey offers valuable insights on leveraging military experience in a political landscape. Despite the challenges—limited community connections, financial constraints, and explaining military expertise to civilian audiences—veterans bring unique problem-solving abilities and leadership experience that can restore trust in government.Want to learn more about bringing common-sense leadership to complex problems?

Send us a textAs communities across America grapple with tension and uncertainty, Montgomery County's 11th annual Friendship Picnic offers a powerful antidote to division. Nestled under the canopy of trees at Wheaton Regional Park, residents from all walks of life gather to celebrate what connects us rather than what separates us."Whatever happens around us here in Montgomery County, we're going to make it work across our various diverse lines, across cultural lines, across religious lines," declares Jim Stowe, Director of the Office of Human Rights and driving force behind the event. His vision of Dr. King's "beloved community" isn't just rhetoric—it's being lived out through food, music, and genuine human connection.The magic of the picnic lies in its simplicity: "Zero drama, 100% fun, 100% food, 100% music." Children form instant friendships at the reptile petting zoo while adults sample unfamiliar cuisines and engage in conversations that go beyond superficial greetings. County Council members, public safety officials, and department representatives mingle with residents, breaking down barriers between government and the people it serves.When asked why friendship matters, responses range from the profound to the practical. "Friendship is the family we choose for ourselves," reflects a visitor from New York. "We learn together and we grow together." A young boy offers the simplest truth: "Without friendship we would all be lonely."In these divided times, the Friendship Picnic stands as a testament to what's possible when we focus on our shared humanity. As County Councilmember Andrew Friedson puts it, the event shows "hope at a time of despair" and demonstrates "what belonging and community really looks like."Join us next September for this annual tradition that reminds us all: in Montgomery County, we're making community work, one friendship at a time.

Montgomery County is a small, rural area in the middle of North Carolina. The county has struggled financially for years, and its school district depends on government grants to survive. This year, the Trump administration cut $600 million in grants to teacher-training programs across the country, and Montgomery County's $21 million grant was included. The Trump administration says the grants were cut because they were used to train teachers and agencies on diversity, equity and inclusion practices.Host Elahe Izadi speaks with national reporter Ben Brasch about his reporting on Montgomery County's schools. He shares why some parents and teachers are frustrated by the Trump administration's seemingly indiscriminate cuts, and why the elimination of the county's grant affects the school district's ability to retain and train quality teachers.Today's show was produced by Thomas Lu.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (08/06/2025): 3:05pm- Breaking News: In a unanimous decision, the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court has ruled that former Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney's 2021 executive order replacing Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day is invalid—noting that the order amounted to lawmaking without input from Philadelphia City Council and, consequently, violated the City Charter. 3:10pm- According to multiple reports, SiriusXM will not renew Howard Stern's show when his contract concludes at the end of 2025.

In a unanimous decision earlier today, the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court ruled that former Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney's 2021 executive order replacing Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day is invalid—noting that the order amounted to lawmaking without input from Philadelphia City Council and, consequently, violated the City Charter. 5:00pm- While speaking with Kaitlan Collins on CNN, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett baselessly accused Donald Trump supporters of being “low IQ.” 5:10pm- In response to Texas's redistricting attempt, Governor Gavin Newsom has pledged to redistrict California—presumably removing several Republican congressional seats. Interestingly, Republicans currently hold just 17% of the congressional seats in CA—despite nearly 40% of the state voting for Donald Trump in 2024. Doesn't that suggest the state is already heavily gerrymandered? Comparatively, Democrats currently hold 32% of the House seats in Texas (with one vacant seat in a district that is reliably blue—so, the real number is closer to 34%). Kamala Harris won 42% of the Texas statewide vote in 2024. 5:30pm- From the White House on Tuesday, President Donald Trump—alongside Apple CEO Tim Cook, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick—announced that Apple will invest an additional $100 billion in domestic manufacturing, assuring that more of the company's supply chain will be based in the United States. Cook and Apple now plan to invest a total of $600 billion in U.S. manufacturing. 6:05pm- Jimmy Failla—Fox News Host & Author of Cancel Culture Dictionary—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Lizzo vs Sydney Sweeney, Howard Stern's show being reportedly canceled by SiriusXM, and loincloths!
