Todd breaks down why the federal government is shut down and who’s really holding up a deal. He explains the GOP’s “clean CR” offer, Democrats’ push to restore emergency Medicaid reimbursements, and how the media frames the blame game. We also look at what a reduction in force could mean if the shutdown drags on, and why this moment could reshape the size and scope of government. Plus, an announcement: Eric Trump joins the show next Wednesday, and Todd invites your questions. Finally, quick hits on conservative campus momentum and why messaging matters as much as policy. Conservative, not bitter—tune in and share with a friend.
