Rep. Ro Khanna joins the Beast's Joanna Coles to reveal what he calls Washington's most dangerous cover-up. The California congressman explains how the Epstein files hold explosive information and why his bipartisan effort to release them has been stonewalled during the government shutdown. He links Trump's role in the stalemate to a broader system that shields the powerful rather than the public. From congressional gridlock to moral reckoning, Khanna argues that transparency is the only way to restore trust in democracy. Is Trump protecting national secrets or defending himself?

In response to the caller, Johnson shifts the blame to Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and claims to have no control over the matter.

Let's talk about Trump's Shutdown_ economic impact edition....
Starting Friday, federal workers will be getting their first paychecks for smaller-than-usual amounts as a result of the government shutdown. That's likely to especially sting federal employees who still have to show up to work, including TSA agents and air traffic controllers. They've helped up the pressure to end shutdowns before. Could they do it again? Plus, we'll unpack how C-suite execs are currently feeling about tariffs and artificial intelligence.
The possibility of delayed paychecks gets more real after day eight of the federal government shutdown. Could some furloughed federal workers not get paid at all? Plus, Trump says Israel and Hamas have signed off on a “first phase” of a Gaza ceasefire deal. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The federal government shutdown continues, as Trump's efforts in the Middle East draw praise.On Today's Show:Jonathan Lemire, co-host of "Morning Joe" on MSNBC, contributing writer at The Atlantic and author of the book,The Big Lie: Election Chaos, Political Opportunism, and the State of American Politics After 2020 (Flatiron Books, 2022), talks about what he calls the "project 2025 shutdown" and more national political news.
The government shutdown continues with no obvious end in sight, and while it theoretically should not affect entitlement programs like Medicare and Medicaid, the lapse of some related authorizations — like for Medicare telehealth programs — is leaving some doctors and patients high and dry. Meanwhile, the FDA quietly approved a new generic abortion pill, prompting a not-so-quiet reaction from anti-abortion groups. Alice Miranda Ollstein of Politico, Tami Luhby of CNN, and Sarah Karlin-Smith of Pink Sheet join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss those stories and more. Also this week, Rovner interviews Sarah Grusin of the National Health Law Program about the GOP's misleading claims that Democrats shut down the government in pursuit of free health care for immigrants who are in the country illegally. Plus, for “extra credit” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too: Julie Rovner: The Washington Post's “How Some Veterans Exploit $193 Billion VA Program, Due to Lax Controls,” by Craig Whitlock, Lisa Rein, and Caitlin Gilbert.

Jen Psaki shows House Speaker Mike Johnson's pattern of avoiding having to address any issues that might cast Donald Trump in a poor light by pretending they are "not in his lane," not relevant to his position in Congress and therefore he can't speak on them. But when asked about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl, Johnson wasted no time leaving his lane to speak his mind.New reporting from the Wall Street Journal says that Donald Trump's social media post demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi prosecute his political enemies was meant to be a private direct message. Former federal prosecutor Preet Bharara talks with Jen Psaki about the DOJ's case against former FBI Director James Comey and how Trump's sloppy posting will not only be used against him, but could turn up more improper communications in discovery.Jen Psaki exposes the facts that undermine a fake surveillance scandal that Republicans like Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, and Chuck Grassley are pretending to be outraged about so they can push a re-writing of the history of January 6 and what the subsequent investigation turned up.

A shutdown of the US government races myriad questions, particularly what economic impacts might be felt in the near-term and the bigger picture puzzle of how to assess the state of the economy when public data from government statistical agencies is delayed or unavailable. This week, we take a deep dive on those questions, with a focus on the September US CPI release as a test case for how to think about and use alternative data sets. We are joined by PriceStats co-founder Alberto Cavallo, global head of macro strategy Michael Metcalfe and senior strategist Noel Dixon for a wide-ranging discussion of the shutdown and how alternative data can complement public data.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There's no sign of a compromise in the government shutdown. Democrats in the Senate are blocking a funding bill, demanding that Republicans agree to reverse looming Medicaid cuts and extend Obamacare health insurance subsidies.
On this week's 14th and G, we discuss the key issues at the center of the government shutdown - Affordable Care Act Tax Credits and the politics of health care reform. Host Dean Rosen speaks with national health care expert Larry Levitt of KFF on how we got here and what the data shows. Dean then debates who's winning, who's losing, and how we get out of this mess with Mehlman Democratic Partner Lauren Aronson and GOP colleague Alye Mlinar, both of whom have been deeply involved in health care policymaking for decades.
KC Crosbie, Co-Chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), joins the show to discuss the ongoing government shutdown and its roots in Democratic leadership. She breaks down the political stakes, the impact on Americans, and how Republicans are responding to restore funding and accountability.
Rep. Marlin Stutzman, Indiana's 3rd District Representative, joins the show to discuss the Gaza peace deal, the ongoing government shutdown, and the upcoming visit of J.D. Vance to Indiana to address redistricting. Stutzman shares insights on how these issues impact Hoosiers and the nation.
Day nine of the government shutdown and the stalemate is getting messier. Todd breaks down why Senate Democrats keep blocking a “clean CR,” what that really means, and why Trump's talk of federal reductions-in-force is suddenly on the table. Then we turn to campus speech wars: a Change.org petition targets the Turning Point USA chapter at Rutgers, accusing it of “hate speech”—Todd explains what's actually at stake and shares a personal story about hearts changing after Charlie Kirk's assassination. Finally, California Rep. Katie Porter melts down in a local TV interview, bristling at basic follow-ups while running for governor.Conservative… not bitter, with clarity, context, and a few laughs along the way.(Sponsor) Full Suite Wealth → https://fullsuitewealth.com
