Town Hall Hell (w/ Rep. Debbie Dingell)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Members of Congress are hearing from a lot of angry voters over what's being done by the Trump administration. Republicans are being criticized for going along with DOGE and Trump, while Democrats are looking for someone, anyone to step up and lead. Grant breaks down what this week has been like and what it means as Congress heads into a budget fight to avoid a government shutdown.
Grant also talks to Michigan Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI6) about what the mood is like in Congress, whether Democrats have a message, and whether they will use the shutdown to get what they want.
