In today’s episode, we discuss all the emergency problems transpiring while Congress takes a random week-long vacation. The courts continue to destroy this country and never take a day off, meanwhile, nobody in leadership can be bothered to deal with the problem.
We also discuss how McConnell blames the congressional inaction on the filibuster, yet he refuses to use the two tools he has to pass legislation with a simple majority – budget reconciliation and a rescissions spending bill. Worse, he is using his wife, Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao, to enforce his position against conservatives, even though Chao is officially violating Trump administration policy of supporting the spending cut bill that can pass with a simple majority.
The caravan of illegals at our border is just the tip of the iceberg. There is a major drug problem coming into our country and the caravans are used as a diversion tactic. Where is Congress? Lights out.
Finally, we address the Iran deal and the significance of Netanyahu’s revelation. Once again, where is Congress? Why are they not voting to slap sanctions on Iran, re-orient our strategy and alliances in the Middle East, and abrogate the Iran deal?
