Federal Government Shutdown, Gaza Peace Deal, Trump and Hegseth’s Remarks to Military Top Brass, & More

The federal government has been shut down for three days now, but for those of us who don’t rely on government handouts, we haven’t noticed much difference. On this week's show, Matt and Brett discuss how the shutdown is on the heads of the Democrats as they attempt to reinstate taxpayer-funded health care for illegal aliens. Although it’s a messaging war between the Democrats and Republicans as of now, it could get bigger if the shutdown drags on. Matt and Brett also talk about President Trump’s new Gaza peace deal, the U.S. taking stake in Lithium Americas, and take a deep dive into President Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth’s speeches to the U.S. military’s top brass. They share their thoughts on the Pentagon’s new fitness and grooming standards, women serving in combat, and more.
