How Are Republicans Justifying the Shutdown?

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, the brothers break down Donald Trump’s disastrous trip to Asia amid the ongoing government shutdown — where protests erupted in South Korea and Trump tried to distract from the crisis at home by announcing more fake “trade deals.” Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson’s lies about the shutdown hit new levels of absurdity as he claimed Democrats are somehow in charge of the government, even as millions of Americans face losing their SNAP benefits. The team also covers Canada saying it’s moving on from the United States after Trump slapped yet another retaliatory tariff on imports — and Trump’s stunning admission that he received an MRI during his secretive visit to Walter Reed Hospital. Ben, Brett, Jordy discuss all this and more!
