The Government Reopens. Now What S4E229 11.20.2025
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today we heard from Trudy, who lives in Boulder, CO. Trudy asks, It looks like the government will reopen shortly. This might mean that many issues the Republicans were able to sidestep may now come up for a vote. First, Johnson will need to swear in the new Representative from Arizona. Also, the release of the Epstein files might now become a reality. So, do you guys think that the reopening of the government might have a negative impact on Trump? Is the Democrats giving in to something he was counting on not happening?
