Today's Headlines: Trump's Asia trip is somehow still going, with his latest stop in Beijing producing no trade deal — but plenty of showmanship. After what he called an “amazing” meeting with Xi Jinping, Trump said China will resume buying U.S. soybeans and pause export limits on rare earth minerals, while the U.S. cuts fentanyl tariffs from 20% to 10%. Missing from the talks: Taiwan, Russian oil, or China's access to Nvidia's AI chips. Also not discussed (but probably should've been): Trump's pre-meeting Truth Social post saying he's ordering the military to restart nuclear weapons testing — something no U.S. president has done since 1992. The Kremlin warned that if Washington breaks the moratorium, Moscow “will act accordingly.” Back in the US, SNAP and WIC benefits for over 40 million Americans are set to expire tomorrow as Senate Republicans blocked emergency funding, while also refusing to let Democrats use USDA contingency funds to keep the programs alive. Meanwhile, coffee might finally get cheaper — Senators Catherine Cortez Masto and Rand Paul introduced a bipartisan bill to repeal Trump's coffee tariffs. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker asked ICE to pause raids in Chicago over Halloween weekend after agents fired tear gas near a kids' parade. The administration also announced it'll cap refugee admissions at 7,500 next year — down from 125,000 — prioritizing white South Africans. The DOJ has reopened an investigation into Black Lives Matter leaders over alleged donor fraud from 2020, despite a prior review finding no wrongdoing. In corporate circus news, OpenAI is reportedly preparing to go public at a trillion-dollar valuation (sure, why not), five more suspects were arrested in the $100 million Louvre jewel heist, and King Charles has officially stripped Prince Andrew of his royal title and booted him from royal property — so long, “Prince” Andrew.

A special episode all about why Trump wants to light the filibuster on fire, and how it's not about helping anyone who relies on SNAP and WIC (unsurprising, I know), with bonus tips on how you can help folks.Take the pledge to be a voter at raisingvoters.org/beavoterdecember. - on AmazonSubscribe to the Substack: kimmoffat.substack.comAll episodes can be found at: kimmoffat.com/thenewsAs always, you can findme on Instagram/Twitter/Bluesky @kimmoffat and TikTok @kimmoffatishere
Hosts Kevin Flynn and Alex Taylor dedicate the episode to attacking the ongoing government shutdown, which they consistently label the "Democrat shutdown," now on its 29th day. They feature several Fox News audio clips (Tivo) of Republican leaders, including Senator John Thune and Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, slamming Democrats for using the suffering of American families—specifically SNAP and WIC recipients, and unpaid federal workers—as "leverage" for political gain. The hosts and their guests argue that the Democrats could end the shutdown immediately by passing a clean Continuing Resolution (CR) which they had previously voted for, but refuse to do so to force concessions like providing health care to illegal immigrants and restoring "pork" funding. The episode also touches on President Trump's successful foreign deals and local sports news. Standout Moments: The "Democrat Shutdown" Attack: Senator John Thune delivers a "fiery speech" where he details how the shutdown has hurt real people and notes that Republicans have voted 13 times to fund programs like SNAP, but Democrats have voted no to keep the government closed for leverage. (6:41) The Pork Problem: Senator Mark Wayne Mullen and JD Vance argue that Democrats are holding up the government to force the inclusion of $$1.5$ trillion in funding for waste, fraud, abuse, and health care for illegal immigrants into the reopening bill. (11:24) Democrat Poll Numbers Are Hurting: Fox News analysts discuss polling data showing that the shutdown is hurting Democrats, with the Republican Congress's net approval rating up 12 points with its base and 8 points among Independents. (15:58) New York's SNAP Share: It's revealed that almost 10% of the country's SNAP benefits—nearly $$700$ million of $$8$ billion a month—goes to New York, highlighting the state's significant stake in the funding fight. (16:16) Trump's Trade Successes: The host notes that President Trump was successful in meetings in South Korea and China, with China planning to buy a "ton of soybeans," hopefully emptying farmer's bins. (2:23) World Series Update: Toronto beats the Dodgers 6-1, taking a 3-2 lead in the World Series, with the host enthusiastically pulling for the Dodgers to lose. (4:12) Deer Season is Coming: Outdoors expert Steve Carney shares an incredible story of a large doe returning to his decoy after his first arrow shot hit the window of his ground blind, and gives an update on the upcoming North Dakota and Minnesota rifle openers. (18:24)
The government has been shut down for nearly a month, and millions of people are starting to feel the effects on federal programs like SNAP, WIC, Head Start and more. In the Loop talks with Brightpoint CEO Mike Shaver, Rolling Meadows resident and mother Wendy Mamola and Northwestern professor Terri Sabol about how a prolonged shutdown could impact the early childhood education and other services provided by Head Start.

This week, we look at new findings from the European prostate cancer screening study, advances in lung cancer therapy, physical therapy for meniscal tear, and a promising vaccine for Salmonella Paratyphi A. We review noninvasive liver fibrosis assessment and a complex clinical case, and explore perspectives on concierge care, kidney disease equity, WIC enrollment, community health, FDA regulation, and standing with colleagues in Gaza.
The room is loud, the jokes fly, and then the floor drops out: government benefits are frozen, TSA workers are stretched thin, and families are doing math at the register. We start with birthday energy and end up deep in the real-world fallout of a shutdown—EBT, WIC, TANF, Medicaid, school meals—and what that means for travel, safety, and the people who can't afford to miss a paycheck. A first-hand TSA story brings the headlines into focus: a half check, a prayer in a hallway, and a job you still have to do.From there, we chase the money. An $11 million nonprofit fraud targeting children's meals turns into mansions and a luxury SUV, and we ask the uncomfortable questions about accountability, restitution, and why “investing stolen money” isn't strategy, it's hubris. Then we pivot to culture shock with reports of a threat against Diddy behind bars—power, spectacle, and how mental health programming gets framed when celebrity meets the carceral system.The episode's wildest left turn? A daylight jewel raid in France pulled off in construction gear, a freight lift, and getaway scooters. We break down the timeline, the haul, and why heists captivate us even when the losses are insured. That thrill is cut short by a viral tragedy from Houston: two women fighting in the street are killed by a hit-and-run driver. We argue hard about ethics—stop or flee, fear versus duty—and how context like lighting, traffic, and adrenaline warps judgment.We wrap with our favorite curveball: “What Would You Do?” A bleary late-night arrival, a door left open, a blurry silhouette, and the slow horror of realizing you're in the wrong house. The room builds a practical playbook—verify addresses, call before entering, announce yourself, and leave fast if tension spikes—before we drop into a live “Pot and Bars” freestyle set that captures the chaos and honesty of the night.If you like real talk, sharp turns, and a mix of humor with hard truths, hit play now.

Also millions of Americans may not be able to afford their health insurance policies soon if Congress doesn't agree to a permanent extension of the ACA tax credits. We're running out of time.

You get both sides of the battlefield in one episode. First, Corrine Clifford gives you a DC insider's view on the government shutdown: what's actually being debated, whether Trump's East Wing “ballroom” construction is taxpayer-funded, and how media narratives shape public outrage while families worry about SNAP and WIC. Then Jonathan Choe takes you inside Antifa's operations — from anarchist book fairs and recruitment tactics to safe houses, “keffiyeh block” disguise strategies, and how homeless encampments are leveraged during ICE facility actions. If you want clarity on Washington theater and street-level agitation, this conversation equips you to see through the noise.#victoriataft, #adultintheroom, #politics, #governmentshutdown, #mediabias, #washingtondc, #antifa, #portland, #seattle, #investigativejournalism, #corrineclifford, #jonathanch
(The Center Square) – Senate Democrats are set to block Republicans' government funding bill for the 12th time Wednesday, keeping the federal government shut down despite tens of millions of low-income Americans at risk of losing food stamps or early childhood education assistance. Although the U.S. Department of Agriculture will resume core Farm Service Agency financial services Thursday, the unfunded agency cannot provide money to support SNAP or WIC benefits for the month of November, which together serve up to 49 million people.

Several government assistance programs are under threat due to the federal government shutdown. WIC, a nutrition program for mothers and young children, is funded in Minnesota through mid-November. But SNAP, a wider food benefit program, won't have funds starting Nov. 1. The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, which helps Minnesotans heat their homes, is also delayed. All together, these programs help hundreds of thousands of Minnesotans. Tammy Alto, Director of the Energy Assistance Program for Hennepin County, joined MPR News host Nina Moini to share how that energy program has been impacted by the shutdown.
We've learned this morning that Utah SNAP customers will not receive benefits in November due to the Government shutdown...but what about WIC? Jodell Geilman-Parke, Utah WIC Vendor and Public Information Officer, joins the show to bring the latest details.

What would it take for health care providers to truly meet people where they are – and go beyond the 15-minute visit? Dr. Razia Jayman-Aristide is a physician who blends deep clinical expertise with a powerful public health lens. She has spent the last 15 years building a career that bridges direct patient care, nonprofit leadership and systemic change. In this episode, Dr. Jayman-Aristide shares her journey — and how she's redefining what medicine, emphasizing the need for personalized care that addresses social determinants of health. “My family was a family that came here with minimal in their pocket. We were getting food stamps. We were on WIC lines. I was going to the FQHC clinics,” she says. “I would see parents losing, you know, a day of the salary just to get me health care. It's crazy that we don't think about those things. And I bring that everywhere I go.” Registration is now open for the upcoming Movement Is Life Annual Summit on Friday, November 14, 2025, in Washington, DC. This year's theme is “Combating Health Disparities: The Power of Movement in Community.” Visit movementislifecommunity.org for more information.

On todays show Charlotte, Mark, James Dwayne and Glenn talk about the book "Mary's Monkeys" which links the JFK assassination to a government cover-up involving cancer-causing viruses. The conversation also delved into the Middle East peace agreement, highlighting Hamas's commitment to disarm and relocate to Egypt. The group debated the feasibility of this agreement, noting the potential for Hamas to violate its terms. Additionally, the acquisition of Dominion Voting Systems by Liberty Vote was discussed, emphasizing the shift towards paper ballots and American ownership. The meeting concluded with a brief mention of Smartmatic's sale. The conversation revolves around the potential sale of Dominion and Smartmatic voting systems, with concerns about their integrity and the impact of bad press. James Wilkerson and others discuss the implications of the systems being sold, suggesting it could be due to legal threats and settlements, including a $787 million settlement with Fox News. The discussion also touches on the political landscape, including the potential impact of a government shutdown and the "No Kings" protest on October 18, and the strategic maneuvering of political parties. Additionally, there is a mention of Donald Trump's efforts to fund WIC through tariff revenue during the shutdown. Don't Miss it!
The "Need to Know Morning Show" kicks off with apologies for an unscheduled guest and quickly moves to a discussion of President Trump's reported peace deal between Israel and Hamas, which is set to free hostages and bring peace to the region. Despite this remarkable achievement, the hosts confirm Trump was snubbed for the Nobel Peace Prize, which instead went to a Venezuelan opposition figure. The show dedicates segments to the ongoing government shutdown, featuring clips of House Majority Leader Steve Scalise discussing the damage inflicted by the "Schumer shutdown" and the Democrats' insistence on funding for programs like emergency care for undocumented people. They criticize Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for bragging that "every day gets better for us" during a shutdown that harms military families and other workers. The hosts also discuss Trump's threat to implement permanent cuts to government spending—specifically Democratic programs—if the shutdown continues, citing a law from the 1800s that grants the president that power. In "Tevo Time," the hosts discuss the bank fraud indictment against New York AG Letitia James, highlighting the "crushing irony" and "hypocrisy" that she is being charged with similar crimes to those she levied against Trump. Additionally, they celebrate the launch of an "All-American halftime show" by Turning Point USA to counter the planned Super Bowl halftime performance by Bad Bunny. Standout Moments: 0:02:40: The hosts announce Trump's reinstatement of Columbus Day over Indigenous Peoples Day. 0:05:54: Turning Point USA is launching an "All-American halftime show" for the Super Bowl to oppose Bad Bunny's performance. 0:06:55: The hosts criticize the NFL for repeatedly selecting rap-related artists for the Super Bowl halftime show. 0:11:47: Jesse Watters discusses how Trump's "force of his personality and persistence" secured the peace deal between Israel and Hamas. 0:12:47: The hosts share a remarkable timeline of Trump's diplomatic tactics in the peace deal, including forcing Netanyahu to apologize to Qatar in front of cameras. 0:14:52: The hosts note the "deafening silence" of Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib following the peace deal, questioning her true desire to "free Gaza". 0:18:14: The hosts share a listener's historical text linking the Phoenicians and the biblical Tribe of Dan to the origins of the Vikings and the discovery of America. 0:21:04: Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins highlights Vice President J.D.

From the government shutdown that's starving paychecks to the beefy boys rolling off bread trucks in Chicago, this episode rips through every headline the brass wishes you'd ignore. Peaches calls out the “financially illiterate” lifestyle of troops living beyond their means, laughs at the Army Corps' endless postponements, and lights up DoD's hilariously outdated cybersecurity systems. Then it's on to the Marines flexing “maritime domain awareness” for an attaboy, the Air Force's missileer cancer scare, and the Space Force trying to sound cool with “hypersonic challenges.” Oh—and the Coast Guard Cutter Midgett (yes, really) returns from busting drug runners like it's the sequel to Narcos.

Atlas Bamonte is a 42-year-old disability advocate and lifelong community builder. Known as a “zebra” in the medical community, he has lived experience with rare and complex conditions, which deeply informs his work. For many years, Atlas worked as a birth and lactation professional, serving families in Alabama and Florida as a WIC peer counselor, lactation counselor, and doula. He co-founded a nonprofit in Alabama dedicated to ensuring that people living in poverty had access to doula care, and he created inclusive homeschooling groups while raising and homeschooling his four children, each with medical complexities and unique learning needs. Now based in South Carolina, Atlas spends much of his time collaborating with medical professionals at MUSC, Duke, and Harvard, and participating in research with the Norris Lab on connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). More recently, he was also diagnosed with dermatomyositis, a rare autoimmune disease, making him a point of study and collaboration among specialists at MUSC. Alongside his own medical journey, Atlas provides education and peer support for people living with rare diseases, chronic illness, and medical PTSD—helping others navigate systems that often feel overwhelming and isolating.

The federal government shut down this week, leaving thousands of federal employees furloughed. Families who depend on WIC and SNAP could also be at risk if the shutdown prolongs. Since President Trump took office, thousands of federal employees have faced layoffs or resigned themselves. Conversations around a government shutdown brewed in March, but the final straw for Democrats may have been in August. That was when Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said the House of Representatives would withhold $4 billion previously allocated for foreign aid. Trump blames Democrats for the shutdown. Which party will get their desired outcome here?Ezra Klein, a New York Times opinion writer, said that a shutdown may be exactly what Democrats need to regain power of the legislative branch.

Impending Shutdown: The country is only “hours away” from a government shutdown, Partisan Blame: The responsibility for the shutdown is Democrats, particularly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Republican Positioning: Republicans, including Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, JD Vance, Tom Cotton, and John Thune, are portrayed as wanting a “clean funding extension” (a short-term budget measure) to keep the government open. Democratic Hypocrisy: The commentary highlights past Democratic statements opposing shutdowns, contrasting them with current positions to claim inconsistency. Accusations of Radicalism: Democrats are described as pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that allegedly includes: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants Funding for gender-affirming surgeries Open borders and Medicaid fraud Other “radical left” priorities Political Motivation: A recurring argument is that Schumer is resisting compromise to protect himself from a potential primary challenge by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Consequences of Shutdown The episode also notes practical impacts of a shutdown, such as: Federal employees furloughed or unpaid Disruptions for TSA officers, military families, firefighters, veterans, and prison guards Delays in Social Security, SNAP, and WIC benefits Risks to disaster relief and FEMA funding Potential harm to the economy, including billions in costs and possible credit rating downgrades Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
