Description

In this episode, Tara breaks down the end of a 40-day government shutdown stalemate, highlighting how eight Democrats joined Republicans to pass a stopgap funding bill that keeps the government open until January. The episode explores the political theater behind the shutdown, the Democrats’ failed attempt to secure billions for illegal immigrant health care, and the unprecedented moment when Republicans finally fought back. Amid the legislative chaos, Americans face stranded flights and travel delays during the holidays. Adding an eye-opening twist, Pelosi’s retirement uncovers over $130 million in stock profits and a staggering investment track record that outperforms Wall Street legends. Tara unpacks what this means for political power, fiscal strategy, and the nation’s trust in its leaders.
