Why Won't House Republicans Negotiate to Reopen Government?
Ben critiques Speaker Mike Johnson and House GOP refusal to talk to Democrats amid the government shutdown.
In this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, the brothers break down Trump’s reversal on plans to shut down California’s I-5 freeway after MeidasTouch exclusively exposed his “vanity military parade.” Trump indicts another one of his political enemies, this time his former national security adviser, John Bolton. They also dive into Trump’s hours-long call with Vladimir Putin and his tease of another meeting between the two, the GOP’s spiraling dysfunction amid the ongoing government shutdown, and the unraveling of Trump’s so-called “ceasefire” in Gaza. Plus, Ben, Brett, and Jordy cover the latest developments in the No Kings protests and what they reveal about the growing resistance to authoritarianism at home and abroad — and so much more.
