Trump Calls on Senate Republicans to Reopen the Government.
Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss President Donald Trump’s social media post calling on Senate Republicans to get rid of the filibuster in order to reopen the government. Also, this weekend federal food stamps payments are scheduled to start running out and ACA enrollment begins, which some feel will help spur Senators from both parties to compromise and stop the partial government shutdown. Then, they discuss races in Virginia, New Jersey and New York City as the final weekend of the 2025 election season begins. Plus, a look at Alvin Bragg’s campaign for New York District Attorney, where candidates have been largely silent on the unsuccessful outcome of his case against Donald Trump. Next, political scientist and author Charles Murray joins the guys to talk about his new book, Taking Religion Seriously. Murray is best known for thought-provoking political books like Losing Ground, The Bell Curve and Coming Apart. His latest effort is the story of his own faith journey and personal reflection on the nature of God, nature and existence. Then finally, the guys talk up this week’s “You Cannot Be Serious” stories.
