This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmThey're calling it the liddlest, tiniest government shutdown of all time. Democrats are demanding changes to policy that helps Trump's immigration police get away with abuses. So they've shut down the Department of Homeland Security and only the Department of Homeland Security. In this episode, Matt and Brian discuss:* How we ended up with such a narrow shutdown, instead of one that spanned multiple cabinet departments;* Whether this was a mistake or a savvy move;* What success (or “success”) might look like.Then, the Epstein Files story is stuck behind our collective unwillingness in the political class to state plainly what we're after: Whether Donald Trump abused children, and what the consequences should be if he did? Why is the administration so allergic to accountability for non-Trump associates of Jeffrey Epstein? And, was Pam Bondi's infamous performance before the House Judiciary Committee last week secretly brilliant?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Brian reconceives of the Trump-2024 campaign as a conspiracy to conceal the Epstein Files.* Halina Bennet on the ICE accountability gap.* Roger Sollenberger on a credible allegation of child sexual abuse against Donald Trump.

We're told a partial Department of Homeland Security shutdown is a national emergency — delayed flights, furloughed workers, Washington dysfunction. But here's what isn't being emphasized: ICE isn't shutting down. Arrests, detention, and deportations continue. And behind the political standoff, enforcement is scaling up. While headlines focus on “shutdown drama,” the enforcement apparatus appears to be accelerating — not pausing. The bigger question isn't whether Congress resolves this dispute. It's what a larger, faster, more centralized immigration enforcement system means for the country's future. Independent media has never been more important.

In this episode, we explore minority stress as an accumulation of experiences—overt discrimination, microaggressions, stereotyping, exclusion, and the invisible effort of code-switching or masking. Using simple polyvagal-informed language, we look at how chronic vigilance can keep the body in mobilised protection or shutdown, and we offer practical ways to support regulation without minimising the reality of the environment.

Výtah Respektu: Stovky amerických soudů napříč Spojenými státy nezávisle na sobě rozhodly, že ICE za poslední měsíce nelegálně uvěznil přes 4400 lidí. Před pár dny o tom informovala agentura Reuters s tím, že i přes soudní rozhodnutí administrativa Donalda Trumpa pokračuje v zatýkání a masových deportacích. Ve stejnou dobu přitom americké ministerstvo vnitřní bezpečnosti vstoupilo do tzv. shutdownu, tedy režimu částečného omezení chodu. Jak ale v úterý epizodě popisuje Dominika Perlínová, na činnost imigračních agentů to příliš nedopadlo: „Imigrační služba dostala rekordní částky, rozpočet srovnatelný například s celou kanadskou armádou. ICE velkou část financí má, protože to bylo schváleno separátně. Co nemůže fungovat jsou jiné organizace, například letiště varují, že bude docházet ke zpoždění letů." ICE tedy pokračuje s rozsáhlými zásahy. Kam lidi deportuje? Jaký je plán na rozšíření detenčních center? Posunulo se nějak vyšetřování zastřelení amerických občanů Renée Nicole Good a Alexe Prettiho? A hrají ještě roli americké soudy? Ptá se Zuzana Machálková.

Let's talk about the DHS shutdown, Trump's big day, and realities....

The Department of Homeland Security has entered a partial government shutdown, after a two-week funding extension expired without a bipartisan agreement on immigration reforms. While core agencies like ICE and CBP remain operational due to existing funding streams, the lapse forces roughly 95% of TSA agents and thousands of FEMA employees to work without pay, echoing the financial strain of a previous 43-day shutdown. Republican candidate for the North Carolina Senate and former RNC Chairman Michael Whatley joins the Rundown to discuss yet another political standoff and how it ties into his bid to replace retiring Senator Thom Tillis. As the nation marks the federal holiday for Washington's birthday, 'The White House', a new FOX Nation series, explores the executive mansion's early years, highlighting the political power plays, personal scandals, and the high-stakes compromise that shaped the nation's capital. Historian and CEO of the American Philosophical Society, Dr. Patrick Spero, who is featured in the series, joins to discuss the complex lives of the Founding Fathers, the influential role of Dolley Madison in shaping the building's social identity, and how the "People's House" has constantly evolved to meet the needs of a growing country.

DHS Shutdown

Marriage shutdown does not usually happen all at once. It builds slowly through emotional exhaustion, repeated disappointment, and the belief that nothing will change. Over time, couples start protecting themselves by pulling back, going quiet, or emotionally checking out.In this episode, I'm breaking down the most common mindset traps that keep couples stuck in shutdown. These are the thoughts that feel protective in the moment but quietly block repair, connection, and movement forward. I explain how these patterns show up, why they make sense, and what actually helps you begin shifting out of shutdown without forcing conversations or pretending everything is fine.Tune in to discover:• What marriage shutdown really looks like over time• The mindset traps that keep couples emotionally stuck• Why self protection often blocks connection• How fear and hopelessness reinforce shutdown• What helps you begin reconnecting safely and slowlyConnect with me for a FREE Married After Kids Intervention Call: https://marriedafterkids.satoriapp.com/offers/277730-married-after-kids-intervention-callFREE Marriage Shutdown Checklist: https://marriedafterkids.com/marriage-shutdown?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=links&utm_campaign=MSoptin60 Min Marriage Shutdown Breakthrough Call: https://marriedafterkids.satoriapp.com/offers/306057-marriage-shutdown-breakthrough-callFREE TRAINING!

The Department of Homeland Security has entered a partial government shutdown, after a two-week funding extension expired without a bipartisan agreement on immigration reforms. While core agencies like ICE and CBP remain operational due to existing funding streams, the lapse forces roughly 95% of TSA agents and thousands of FEMA employees to work without pay, echoing the financial strain of a previous 43-day shutdown.
