21 Republicans Break With Trump as Funding Bill Passes |Judge Blocks Deportations (Ep 653)

from Joey Hudson / Just The Truth · host Joey Hudson

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Congress has officially passed a funding bill to end the partial government shutdown — but the vote exposed deep fractures inside the Republican Party as 21 GOP lawmakers broke with President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, arguing the $1.2 trillion spending package failed to advance conservative priorities on border security, election integrity, and DHS funding. We break down what’s in the bill, what was left out, and why some conservatives say Washington missed a critical moment to use leverage while Republicans hold power. Also in today’s show: • A federal judge blocking the deportation of 350,000 Haitian migrants — and the judge’s long history of donations to Democratic campaigns, including Joe Biden • President Donald Trump pledging federal assistance and personally reaching out to Savannah Guthrie after her mother’s apparent abduction in Tucson • A landmark $2 million verdict for a detransitioner, with attorneys warning this case could be a turning point for doctors nationwide • Growing concerns over activist interference with federal law enforcement • A look at states considering eliminating property taxes — and what that could mean for homeowners in South Carolina This episode cuts through the spin and lays out what’s really happening — in Washington, in the courts, and across the country. 👉 Subscribe for daily news and analysis 📩 Join the mailing list: joeyhudson.com 📱 Text the show on the Firmin Ford text line: 864-477-JOEY (5639) — texts and voice messages welcome
