On this Monday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid covers a variety of significant news headlines, beginning with the advancement of a bipartisan agreement by U.S. senators to end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. This potential deal, however, requires further approval before becoming law. The shutdown has severely affected 42 million Americans reliant on SNAP benefits, unpaid federal employees, and air travelers facing delays. In Brooklyn, firefighter Patrick Brady tragically died of cardiac arrest while on duty, marking the second FDNY line-of-duty death in two weeks. Additionally, Sid discusses the political climate surrounding Governor Kathy Hochul, and her perceived shortcomings after Republican Elise Stefanik last week announced her run for Governor against Hochul next year. Sid also highlights President Trump’s pardon of former baseball player Darryl Strawberry for tax evasion and offers insight into an NFL halftime ceremony honoring military service, where President Trump also provided commentary on the game from the broadcast booth. Lastly, Sid honors the U.S. Marine Corps for their 250 years of service. Mike Lawler, Anthony Cumia, John Catsimatidis, Darryl Strawberry & Sean Duffy join Sid on this Monday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning.
