In today's show, Mark Minnella is joined by Seth Udinski and Sam Case to explore government funding battles, ICE enforcement tensions, and how political theater can ripple through markets and public confidence. The conversation highlights ongoing debates around fiscal responsibility, federal overreach, and the broader economic signals investors are watching. The hosts also discuss stock market performance under current leadership and introduce listener questions that frame these issues through a biblically responsible investing lens.
