Big Beautiful Bill Squeaks Through The House! Making Sense Of Our World At War (with Ryan McBeth)

The madman did it. Mike Johnson pushed the Big Beautiful Bill through the House in a razor-thin 215–214 vote, with one Republican voting present. It happened in the early hours of the morning, after an all-night session where, reportedly, one GOP member literally fell asleep during the vote. It's wild how this keeps happening: Johnson, backed by Trump, threads the needle just enough to claim victory — first on his own speakership, then on the budget, and now on the crown jewel of Trump's second-term domestic agenda.The vote was close, but this wasn't chaos. It was strategy. Johnson avoided making promises, waited out the loudest factions, and let Trump do the squeezing. First, the SALT caucus got its $40,000 cap. Then, once the blue-state Republicans were on board, the House Freedom Caucus got summoned to the White House. Trump made it clear — get in line. And they mostly did.What's Actually in the BillThe bill itself is massive. It permanently extends the 2017 Trump tax cuts. It temporarily exempts tips, overtime, and auto loan interest from taxes through 2028. It raises the SALT deduction cap to $40,000 for households earning up to $500,000. It imposes work requirements on Medicaid recipients aged 18 to 65 who don't have disabilities or young children. It bans Medicaid and CHIP from covering gender-affirming care. It cuts federal funding to states offering Medicaid to undocumented immigrants.Then there's the border and defense spending: $46.5 billion for the wall, $4.1 billion for more Border Patrol agents, $1,000 asylum application fees, nearly $150 billion for defense, including missile shields and naval expansion. It throws in a Trump Savings Account for kids, expands 529s for education, and guts clean energy tax credits earlier than expected. This is not a modest proposal. This is the full kitchen sink — and it cleared the House.The Congressional Budget Office says it'll add $3.8 trillion to the deficit over the next decade. For a party that used to live and die by fiscal restraint, it's a hell of a turn. And yet, what's striking is that Democrats are the ones now talking about debt again. The shift is real. But the counterargument is simple: we've been living under this tax structure for seven years. Making it permanent just formalizes the status quo. The new spending and credits? That's where the fight will be.Next Stop: The Senate WallNone of this becomes law unless it gets through the Senate — and that's a very different battlefield. The GOP has three votes to spare. And their best lobbyist is JD Vance, who's barely spent any time in the chamber. This is not the House. Rand Paul is a hard no. Ron Johnson is already calling out the deficit. Susan Collins is watching the optics. McConnell still looms over the process, even if he's stepping back from leadership.The House version of this bill isn't making it. Changes are coming — the question is whether they come from the right or the left. Johnson's strategy got him this far. But in the Senate, Trump's grip isn't as strong, and the margin is even tighter. The message is clear: they passed it out of the House, but the real negotiation starts now.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:12 - Big Beautiful Bill Passes House00:13:34 - Interview with Ryan McBeth00:46:17 - Update00:47:21 - Israeli Embassy Shooting 01:02:26 - Senate Bill Response01:04:15 - Texas Hemp Ban01:06:06 - Interview with Ryan McBeth, cont.01:34:29 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Real talk time: Is your career where you want it to be? When you think of your career mobility (as in how one role opens up other opportunities down the line), are you satisfied with where you are now and where you are headed? If things have veered off course, let's talk about it! My all-star special guest today is Susan Collins and she's simplifying how to leverage your network to drive career mobility. Because, let's face it… your greatest advocate is in fact, YOU. And that requires you to build strong working relationships (based on trust and respect) to help you get where you want to go next. Here's how.  My special guest today is Susan Collins and she's simplifying how to leverage your network to drive career mobility. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: When you're feeling disengaged and unhappy at work, how to uncover the root cause. In her words, “if you're happy and you know it, think ahead.” What that means and how to do it simply. What “self-authoring” means and how it might be holding you back. What the 8 career narratives are that we should consider when crafting our own narrative of where you want to head next. How to leverage your network to help you open doors of opportunities and equally, why it's important for you to help open doors for others, as well. … and ultimately, she shares her advice to the introverts of the world listening today who feel nervous about networking and making bold asks to people, in order to move their career along. Q: Are you ready to learn how to leverage your network to drive your career mobility? If yes, this one is for you.

US President Donald Trump unveiled a new tariff policy on Wednesday afternoon to impose new tariffs on nearly all US trading partners, including a 34 percent levy on China.美国总统唐纳德·特朗普于当地时间周三下午宣布实施新的关税政策,将对包括中国在内的几乎所有美国贸易伙伴加征新关税,其中对中国商品将征收34%的关税。Trump, speaking from the White House Rose Garden, announced an "economic emergency", introducing a 10 percent "baseline" tariff on imported goods and additional punitive tariffs targeting around 60 countries with what he called "unfair trade practices".在白宫玫瑰园发表讲话时,特朗普宣布美国进入"经济紧急状态",提出对进口商品征收10%的"基准"关税,并对约60个存在所谓"不公平贸易行为"的国家加征惩罚性关税。Trump said the tariff on all countries, except Canada and Mexico, will take effect on Saturday. He also announced that there would be "individualized" tariffs for countries that have the largest trade deficits with the United States, which would go into effect on April 9.特朗普表示,除加拿大和墨西哥外,针对所有国家的关税将于本周六生效。他还宣布,对美存在最大贸易逆差的国家将实施"差别化"关税政策,该措施将于4月9日生效。"For decades, our country has been looted, pillaged, raped and plundered by nations near and far, both friend and foe alike," Trump said, claiming that the tariffs were designed to boost domestic manufacturing."数十年来,我们的国家被远近邻邦、盟友与对手共同掠夺、劫掠、压榨和剥削。"特朗普声称,这些关税政策旨在重振美国制造业。During his remarks, Trump displayed a chart detailing various US trading partners, highlighting what he claimed were the tariffs those countries imposed on the United States. He then proposed that the US would apply reciprocal tariffs at half the rate charged by each nation, including China's alleged 67 percent effective tariff rate when factoring in "currency manipulation and trade barriers".在演讲过程中,特朗普展示了一份详细列举美国各贸易伙伴的图表,重点强调他声称的这些国家对美征收的关税水平。他进而提出,美国将按各国现行税率的一半征收对等关税,其中包括在考虑"货币操纵和贸易壁垒"因素后,中国据称实施的67%实际有效关税。China, a central focus, was on the top of the chart, followed by the European Union.作为核心关注对象的中国在图表中位列首位,欧盟紧随其后。"[On China], we're going to be charging a discounted reciprocal tariff of 34 percent,"said Trump. Before today's announcement, Trump had already imposed 10 percent tariffs on Chinese goods in two separate rounds, one in February and another in March.美国总统特朗普说:"针对中国,我们将征收34%的折扣对等关税。"在今天的宣布之前,特朗普已经对两轮中国商品征收10%的关税,一轮是在2月,另一轮是在3月。Later, White House documents detailed specific rates: China faces a 54 percent total tariff, with a new 34 percent added to the existing 20 percent, as confirmed by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Other rates include the EU at 20 percent, Vietnam at 46 percent, Japan at 24 percent, Korea at 25 percent, India at 26 percent, Cambodia at 49 percent.白宫文件显示,中国商品实际总关税将达54%,即在现有20%基础上新增34%。财政部长斯科特·贝森特确认了这一叠加机制。 此次加征关税前,特朗普政府已在今年2月和3月分两批对中国商品加征10%关税。根据最新清单,其他主要经济体税率分别为:欧盟20%、越南46%、日本24%、韩国25%、印度26%、柬埔寨49%。Trump said that the tariffs would address years of "unfair" trade practices, during which he claimed other countries had been exploiting the US.特朗普声称,这些关税将纠正多年来的"不公平"贸易行为,制止他国"剥削"美国。US stock markets quickly erased earlier gains following Trump's remarks. In after-hours trading, S&P 500 futures dropped by 1.5 percent.在特朗普发表上述讲话后,美国股市迅速回吐早盘涨幅。标普500指数期货在盘后交易中下挫1.5%。Numerous US lawmakers criticized Trump's tariff hike. Senator Tim Kaine, a Virginia Democrat, said that "many of my Republican colleagues in Congress have already expressed concerns about these tariffs". Kaine authored a resolution to block Trump's tariffs on Canadian imports, which passed the Senate on Wednesday.众多美国议员批评了特朗普的加征关税措施。弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员蒂姆·凯恩透露,“我在国会的许多共和党同事已经表达了对这些关税的担忧”。凯恩撰写了一项决议,阻止特朗普对加拿大进口商品加征关税,该决议于周三在参议院获得通过。"His [Trump's] half-baked trade war will only raise prices for consumers," said Senator Peter Welch, a Vermont Democrat.佛蒙特州民主党籍参议员彼得·韦尔奇直言:"这场(特朗普)草率发动的贸易战只会推高消费者物价。"Senator Susan Collins, a Maine Republican, said: "If these tariffs go into effect, it will be so harmful. And as price hikes always do, they will hurt those the most who can afford them the least."缅因州共和党籍参议员苏珊·柯林斯警告称:"这些关税一旦实施将造成严重损害。正如物价上涨的惯常效应,承受能力最脆弱的群体必将首当其冲。"Speaking shortly after Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the reciprocal tariffs announced by the US President will "fundamentally change the international trading system". He also said Canada would fight American tariffs with countermeasures, although his country and Mexico were not on the list of new tariffs.Trump described the exclusion as an effort to stop illegal immigration and drug smuggling.在特朗普宣布政策后,加拿大总理马克·卡尼随即表示,美国总统推行的对等关税政策将"从根本上改变国际贸易体系"。尽管加墨两国未被列入新关税清单,但卡尼强调加拿大将采取反制措施。特朗普将这一排斥行动描述为遏制非法移民和毒品走私的努力。Hours before Trump's announcement, Stephane Dujarric, spokesperson for the United Nations (UN), told China Daily at Wednesday's noon briefing that the UN has "expressed concern about what we've seen", which is "a rise in economic protectionism" and is concerned "about the impact it could have on the global economy".在特朗普正式宣布前数小时,联合国秘书长发言人斯特凡·杜加里克于周三午间例行记者会上回应《中国日报》提问时表示,联合国已对当前"经济保护主义抬头态势表示关切",并担忧此举"可能对全球经济产生冲击"。Dujarric told the press conference at the UN headquarters in New York last week that the UN consistently encourages member states to settle trade disputes through constructive dialogue or established mechanisms.杜加里克上周在纽约联合国总部记者会上重申,联合国始终倡导会员国通过建设性对话或既有机制解决贸易争端。"I think we've spoken about the issue of tariffs and our position remains the same. We live in a very much global interlinked economy. It is important that member states resolve their trade issues through constructive engagement or through existing architecture, whether it's within the UN or not. And we've seen other countries put up tariffs. These are things that can have very severe impacts on the global economy," he said.“我想我们已经谈到了关税问题,我们的立场仍然不变。我们生活在一个深度互联的全球经济体系当中。各成员国无论通过联合国框架内外的建设性接触或现有机制解决贸易争端都至关重要。我们也看到其他国家提高了关税。这些因素都会对全球经济产生非常严重的影响,"杜加里克说。Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, said on Tuesday that Europe has a plan to retaliate if Trump imposes widespread tariffs. "Europe did not start this confrontation," she said to EU lawmakers.欧盟委员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩周二表态,若特朗普实施全面关税,欧盟已制定反制预案。她对欧盟立法者说:“欧洲并没有挑起这场对抗”。"There's only one conclusion: Trump is convinced that he's smarter than the many economists and business leaders who have urged him not to raise tariffs and risk a trade war," Anthony Moretti, an associate professor in the Communication and Organizational Leadership Department at Robert Morris University in Pennsylvania, told the China Daily.宾夕法尼亚州罗伯特莫里斯大学传播与组织领导系副教授安东尼·莫雷蒂向《中国日报》分析指出:"唯一合理的解释是,特朗普坚信自己比众多经济学家和商界领袖更高明——这些人士反复警告加征关税将引发贸易战风险。""A trade war would harm Americans and people from all over the world, and it will damage bilateral relations," he said.莫雷蒂说:"贸易战不仅将伤害美国民众和世界各国人民,更会严重损害双边关系。"Trump signed another executive order effective May 2 to remove tariff exemptions for Chinese imports valued at $800 or less and intends to apply the same measure to other countries once the federal government confirms it has the necessary staffing and resources in place. The "de minimis" exemption was helpful to popular e-commerce websites Temu and Shein.特朗普签署的另一项行政令于5月2日生效,取消了对价值800美元或以下的中国进口商品的关税豁免,并打算在联邦政府确认必要的人员和资源到位后,对其他国家实施同样的措施。这项“最低限度”豁免曾对热门电商平台Temu和Shein有所帮助。Moretti said that Trump "slammed" China twice on Wednesday. "The 34 percent tariffs will likely draw the bigger headlines, and any response from China will only magnify what he said. But the president also eliminated the‘de minimis' rule that eliminated tariffs on imported items of less than $800," he said. "In effect, what the president has decided is that everything entering the US from China must include a tariff. ""特朗普周三实际上对中国实施了双重打击。"莫雷蒂解读道,"34%的特别关税固然占据新闻头条,中方任何反制措施都将放大其政策效应。但更隐蔽的杀招在于废止800美元以下商品免税规则——这意味着总统实质上决定,所有中国输美商品都必须缴纳关税。"And that means higher prices whether the item is inexpensive or costly. Poorer Americans will especially feel the pain of higher prices because they have fewer dollars to spend," Moretti added."无论商品价格高低,最终都将推升终端售价。对经济拮据的美国低收入群体而言,这种物价上涨带来的痛感将尤为强烈。"莫雷蒂补充道。impose new tariffs征收关税the largest trade deficits最大贸易逆差reciprocal tariffs对等关税hikev.上涨;上升economic protectionism经济保护主义tariff exemptions关税豁免

The incompetence shown by Trump's cabinet members and Vice President is staggering. A group text message on the Signal platform accidentally included a reporter along with Vice President Vance and Secretaries Hegseth, Rubio, Gabbard, National Security Advisor Waltz and more discussing pending military actions. No one checked the text group list or thought to take the conversation to a secure government platform before sharing military operational details. Former national security adviser John Bolton says while Signal is encrypted, it is not equivalent to U.S. government secure telecommunications. Planning military strikes via text puts American military members at risk.  Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg called for “accountability for a screw-up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people every day on television for sport.”  Republican Senator John Cornryn called it a huge screw up and Senator Susan Collins said it was inconceivable to her.  There are now calls for an investigation. We will ask Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative reporter David Cay Johnston about this and so much more.It is Tech Tuesday on The Mark Thompson Show.

It's Friday, February 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark 10th anniversary of Muslim beheading of 21 Libyan Christians Saturday was the 10th anniversary of when 21 Christians died for their faith in Libya. Islamic State militants beheaded them on February 15, 2015 for refusing to deny Christ. Most of the believers were Egyptian Coptic Christians. Vicky Hartzler with the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom said, “Today, we remember the 21 young men who were brutally murdered by ISIS solely for being Christian. The U.S. government must continue to be an unrelenting voice against violence that targets religious communities, including Coptic Christians.”  In memory of the 21 Christian martyrs, More Productions released a short, 13-minute animated film last year called “The 21.” You can watch it through a special link in our transcript today at TheWorldview.com.  Libya has been in turmoil since 2011 and the overthrow of its then-leader, Col. Muammar Gaddafi. Since then, numerous other militia groups have battled for control. According to Open Doors, Libya is the fourth most dangerous country worldwide in which to be a Christian. 74-year-old pro-life woman arrested for praying outside abortion mill Authorities in Scotland arrested a 74-year-old pro-life woman recently for standing silently outside an abortion mill in Glasgow. Rose Docherty was holding a sign that read, “Coercion is a crime, here to talk, only if you want.” Officials charged her with violating a new “buffer zone” law that limits activities around abortion mills. It's the first arrest under the law.  The arrest comes days after U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance called out European leaders for violating the religious freedom of pro-lifers.  Kash Patel confirmed as FBI Director In the United States, the U.S. Senate confirmed Kash Patel as FBI Director on February 20th, reports The Epoch Times. PRESIDING OFFICER: “The Yeas are 51; the Nays are 49. The confirmation is confirmed.” Senators voted 51–49 to confirm Patel who gained prominence for exposing alleged FBI and Justice Department malfeasance during the Crossfire Hurricane probe into the Trump campaign. Crossfire Hurricane was the code name for the counterintelligence investigation undertaken by the FBI from July 2016 to May 2017, into links between Donald Trump's presidential campaign and Russia. Republican Senators  Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine crossed the aisle to join Democrats in voting against Patel's nomination. Surprisingly, GOP Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky supported Trump's nominee. Republican Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa, age 91, serves as the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Before the vote was cast, he made this last-minute appeal. GRASSLEY: “Mr. Patel has spent his whole career fighting for righteous causes. He's been a public defender, representing the accused against the power of the state. He's been a congressional staffer, investigating the partisan weaponization of our legal system. And he served in key national security roles, protecting Americans from foreign enemies. He's received support from former FBI agents, former federal and state prosecutors, and organizations representing more than 680,000 law enforcement officers. “But Mr. Patel's resume, his accomplishments, aren't why he's the best person for this job. Mr. Patel should be considered our next FBI director because the FBI has been infected by political bias and weaponized against the American people. Mr. Patel knows it. Mr. Patel exposed it. I've got plenty of examples to show what's wrong with the FBI.” Kash Patel wrote the 2024 book entitled, Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy. Military chaplain fired for citing Romans 1 in sermon A Veterans Affairs chaplain is fighting for his religious freedom.  Rusty Trubey served as a chaplain at the Coatesville Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Pennsylvania. However, Veterans Affairs removed him from his duties for preaching a sermon from Romans 1. The sermon was entitled, “When a Culture Excludes God,” and included homosexuality as an example.  First Liberty Institute and the Independence Law Center are representing Trubey. Last week, they sent a letter to Douglas Collins, the U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs. The letter noted, “This is a systemic problem. We know that you will do the right thing to correct not only the unconstitutional policies at the Coatesville Facility, but also throughout our [Veterans Affairs] system.” 2 Timothy 4:2 says, “Preach the Word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.” U.S. poll: Only 40% believe in God of Bible; 4% have Biblical worldview Dr. George Barna released his latest American Worldview Inventory report. The study found that 46% of Americans agree that there is only one Supreme Spiritual Being who created and rules everything in existence. That number rose to 60% among self-identified Christians.  Dr. Barna noted many have a mix-and-match approach to faith: “The latest research finds that while two-thirds of Americans identify as Christian, only 4% hold a Biblical worldview. Even more alarming, just 40% believe in the God of the Bible, down from 73% three decades ago. Instead, Syncretism—blending elements from multiple worldviews—has become the dominant perspective.” Joshua 24:15 says, “But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Meta plans to build 30,000-mile-long sub-sea cable And finally, Meta announced last week it is building the world's largest sub-sea cable.

The Senate has confirmed Kash Patel as the next Director of the FBI.  The vote was 51-to-49.  Senators Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins were the only Republicans who voted against Patel.    Two ---- Unlawful crossings at the U.S. southern border are down 94% from the same period last year, Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks told CBS News. He credits the Trump administration's government-wide crackdown on illegal immigration. Over the past seven days, Banks said, Border Patrol agents have apprehended an average of 285 migrants per day along the entire southern border, compared to roughly 4,800 during the same time last year.     And number three —   Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell will not seek reelection next year.  The Republican lawmaker made the announcement in a speech on the Senate floor on his 83rd birthday Thursday.  McConnell was first elected to the Senate in 1984.  McConnell broke the record for longest-serving Senate party leader before stepping down in November.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spent Thursday on Capitol Hill, Berman reports from the Capitol, where much of the focus is still on US President Donald Trump's proposal to offer Gazans to relocate from the war-torn region. Berman says the atmosphere toward Netanyahu is friendly and the prime minister's entourage is "almost giddy" with the sense of friendship and support from the Trump administration, following the criticism and tension that existed with members of the Biden administration. While the date to restart negotiations over the second phase of the ceasefire with Hamas has come and gone, Berman says that Israel is now trying to extend the current stage of the deal as much as possible and to get some more hostages out in this first stage. He adds that Israel currently has the upper hand right given Trump's support, and Hamas appears to be carefully maneuvering itself, in its attempt not to be seen as the one making the deal fail.

Trump might get his cabinet after all.It was never going to be easy, many of them pulled from the Deep MAGA reserves doomed to offend the old guard who are developing carpel tunnel holding their nose through Trump's second administration. Others are lifelong Democrats who helped over the finish line but still inspire a stink eye from lifelong Republicans.Some confirmations were easy—Elise Stefanik sailed through, and Marco Rubio was unanimous. Others more controversial, like Pete Hegseth, who barely squeaked by. But throughout it all, two nominees had the lowest odds of making it through, Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. That's because neither of them are Republicans, and in a Senate where the GOP holds a 53-47 edge, blocking a nomination means peeling off Republican votes, not relying on Democratic opposition. The Democrats could stomp their feet all they wanted—it didn't matter. But on this Tuesday, both have made it out of committee, thanks to key endorsements from influential figures within the GOP they both look to be on a narrow but assured path to the executive branch where they will serve at the pleasure of the president.Politics Politics Politics is free twice a week. Does it LOOK like news is only breaking twice a week? C'mon dude, get the two bonus episodes.Tulsi GabbardHer confirmation was boosted by Susan Collins, a senator unafraid to buck the Trump administration. Representing Maine—a state that's far from a deep-red stronghold—Collins' support was critical. It was enough to push Gabbard through committee on strict party lines. Beyond Collins, outreach from newly installed CIA Director John Radcliffe and Senator J.D. Vance helped smooth over concerns that arose during her confirmation hearing. The main sticking point? Her stance on Edward Snowden. Gabbard made it clear that she viewed Snowden as a criminal and would not recommend a pardon, but she stopped short of calling him a traitor. This led to a bizarre debate over whether she was sufficiently condemning Snowden, as some seemed to argue that unless she said the magic “traitor” word she was unqualified. Gabbard's confirmation has brought together one of the strangest coalitions I've seen on the right—far-right Republicans like Tom Cotton, staunch Never Trumpers like Meghan McCain, and figures like TuringPoint's Charlie Kirk. McCain even appeared on Kirk's radio show Monday to announce they'd team up to primary anyone who voted against Gabbard. That looks like it might not be necessary.RFK Jr. Unlike Gabbard, his confirmation hearing was messier. While Gabbard kept her composure, RFK Jr. approached it like a Kennedy: arrogantly. Democrats took their best shot, mostly by hammering him on vaccines, though their efforts were, frankly, ineffective. They made a lot of noise but didn't seem genuinely committed to blocking him. In the end, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a Republican who voted to impeach Trump, decided he was comfortable enough with RFK Jr. to push him through committee.With that, Trump's cabinet is nearly complete. There's one more potential hurdle: a labor secretary nominee who previously supported the PRO Act and has drawn skepticism from Republicans. But compared to Tulsi and RFK, this is a much lower-profile battle.At the end of the day, this confirmation process has been tougher than what Trump faced in his first term, but his team has handled it deftly. The Democrats? They put up almost no real defense.Was that on purpose? I don't know. I suspect they don't either.Chapters00:00 Intro02:50 Tulsi and RFK safe?12:42 USAID21:04 Waffle House Raises Egg Prices25:46 Senate Takes Charge on Reconciliation Bills32:38 Chris Cillizza This is a public episode.

They were told they couldn't write about the Hunter Biden laptop story.  Politico is a perfect example of the abuse the media does by not reporting what's going on. We don't have a free press anymore; these newsrooms are controlled by left-wing kooks. Also, there is a vote set to confirm Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense. Republicans Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins are undermining national security by voting no. It's not clear what Senators Mitch McConnell and Thom Tillis might do.  Afterward, President Trump explains that FEMA needs to be overhauled or cut completely. He's right, FEMA has become a burdensome, bloated bureaucracy. Trump thinks like a can-do executive and bureaucrats are not used to it. Later, Iran could be weeks away from a nuke. Iran is on its back thanks to the Israelis. Israel can attack their nuclear sites, but they are still being held back. There should be no deal with Iran; if we make a deal with them, they will get nukes. Then, these politicians in California didn't take care of the basics to protect their communities from wildfires.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 78: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: How did this not generate more headlines? It's just a proposed maneuver out of the legal morass Judge Juan Merchan has helped Trump create. But New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg has suggested that one way to solve this sentencing/but he's president/but we can't dismiss the conviction is to treat Trump - in a legal sense - the way you treat a convicted defendant who DIES before he appeals or is sentence. In short: just pretend Trump is dead. SPEAKING OF A BROKEN LEGAL SYSTEM: I'm not advocating for that, nor for guys assassinating CEO's five blocks from my home. But our legal system is broken and it would behoove commentators, columnists, writers, those who suck up to the moneyed class, and conservatives to stop being so surprised at the idea that maybe a majority of Americans is not as outraged as the wealthy are at the actions of Luigi McDreamy. Maybe you need to wonder more about why they perceive the legal system to be broken and the corporations to be legal excuses for nobody being responsible for innocent people dying and being injured. CHRIS WRAY OBEYS IN ADVANCE: He'll quit as FBI director before the inauguration. Maybe he can make a comeback as Trump's second pick for DNI because Tulsi Gabbard is being attacked from the left, the middle, and now from The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board. Also Hegseth's been caught in another lie, about something he had said in public 48 hours earlier. B-Block (23:46) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: The World Cup goes to Saudi Arabia because everything is for sale. And an announcement of a candidacy for New York City Council suddenly made me realize that Bill DeBlasio and Eric Adams both became mayor here in part because between us one of my exes and I screwed around with the 2013 campaign. OOPS. (30:22) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Yes she sneaked a gold-plated gun into Australia but how else was she supposed to protect herself at clown school? Speaking of: Newsweek beats the L.A. Times to a "Fairness Meter" for its articles. And Elon Musk insists there's no homelessness because now is exactly the right time for a CEO to assert that. C-Block (39:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: My favorite Holiday story. The day, on my way to interview Mickey Mantle, I ran into somebody I mistook for just another fan - albeit a well-dressed man. Oops. Turned out he was one of the stars of the greatest movie ever made.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
