The fellas break down how Schumer and Jeffries are boxed in by their own base, why the immigration debate keeps exposing Democrat weakness, and how even purple-state Democrats govern like full-blown radicals the second they get power. It’s not subtle anymore. It’s not complicated. And voters are starting to notice. Special Guest: Rep. Buddy Carter joins the progrum to talk Georgia’s massive Senate race and the road to taking out Jon Ossoff.
