Trump’s Berlin Wall Moment; Dem Shutdown Chaos, Foreign Influence Exposed
In the October 15th episode
President Trump has what some are calling a “Berlin Wall moment” in the Middle East. We break down the phases of the new Israel–Hamas peace deal, how Trump’s “peace through strength” strategy worked, and why Democrats are struggling to decide who deserves credit.
Then:
-Shutdown chaos: Democrats are feeling the fallout from their own government shutdown — with military pay on hold, air travel at risk, and even top aides admitting they won’t back down “short of planes falling out of the sky.”
-Virginia politics: Democrat Jay Jones faces scrutiny over his past defund-the-police platform as he runs for Attorney General.
-Dark money exposed: British billionaire Christopher Hohn pauses his massive funding of U.S. left-wing groups after a new report from Americans for Public Trust.
-L.A. wildfires: The suspect accused of starting the fires is revealed to be a climate activist who once blamed wildfires on global warming.
-Dem identity crisis: Senator Chris Murphy admits the party’s “brand is in the toilet,” while Katie Porter’s viral interview meltdown highlights the Democrats’ growing image problem.
