In this March 20 episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul break down the latest developments surrounding a major government spending bill and the political maneuvering happening behind the scenes in Congress. The hosts examine how lawmakers are using the bill as leverage, with different factions attempting to extract concessions while avoiding blame for potential consequences. CannCon and Chris discuss the strategic positioning of both parties, highlighting how public messaging often differs from what is actually taking place during negotiations. The conversation explores how these high stakes legislative battles frequently turn into political theater, with each side attempting to control the narrative while advancing their own priorities. The episode also touches on the broader implications of these spending decisions, including how repeated funding battles shape public trust in government and reinforce the perception that major policy decisions are driven more by strategy than by substance. Throughout the discussion, the hosts emphasize the importance of understanding the incentives at play and looking beyond surface level political messaging.

Jesse Kelly gives his thoughts on that and gets reaction from Congressman Tim Burchett, who met with Trump privately on the matter. You'll also hear from Jeffrey A.

Lawmakers in the U.S. House of Representatives have returned to Washington D.C. to vote on a bill that will end the longest federal government shutdown in history. Congress has been in stalemate for nearly seven weeks, as neither party could reach an agreement on a spending bill. But in the Senate on Sunday night, seven Democratic and one Independent joined most Republicans to pass the bill. The House, where Republicans have a majority, will vote on the bill Wednesday night. U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum, a Democrat, is the longest-serving member of Minnesota's congressional delegation. McCollum said she plans to vote against the bill.”The more Americans find out what's in it,” McCollum told MPR News, “it's not — which Republicans like to call it, a ‘clean CR' — they're going to be appalled.”She joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about the vote. MPR News reached out to Minnesota's Republican representatives in Congress for interviews, but did not receive a response by the time of this conversation.

Now that President Donald Trump has gotten exactly what he wanted, and signed his major domestic tax and policy agenda into law, what should Democrats do now? Poll after poll has shown the legislation is wildly unpopular, but also that voters don't know a ton about it. The legislation is projected to strip millions of people of health care and food assistance over the next decade. And for Democrats, tying Republicans to the law's most unpopular provisions will be imperative to their hopes of regaining power in Congress in next year's midterm elections. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries joins us to talk about how Democrats plan to respond, both to Trump's big beautiful disaster of a law and to the onslaught of attacks from the Trump administration more broadly.And in headlines: Texas officials said they've confirmed more than 100 deaths from Friday's devastating floods, Trump announced new 25 percent tariffs on Japan and South Korea, and immigration officers staged another massive show of force in Los Angeles.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

As Republicans in Congress look to gut Medicaid with President Donald Trump's supposed “Big Beautiful Bill,” the Supreme Court ended its session ruling on United States vs. Skirmetti that Tennessee could bar gender-affirming care for minors. The ruling itself centered on whether or not such a ban would violate the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause. In a 6–3 decision, with the three liberal justices dissenting, the court decided the Tennessee law did not violate the clause. To learn more about what gender affirming care does, and what providers working on the ground think of efforts to ban it, we spoke to Dr. Alex Dworak.
