lank Checks and Black Ice | WHO Exit, ICE Funding, Winter Emergency

from Patriot Switchboard · host Harlan Mercer

The U.S. has officially completed its withdrawal from the World Health Organization, cutting ties with a global bureaucracy that lost credibility when Americans needed straight answers most. In Washington, the House passed a major DHS funding package with big money for immigration enforcement as the shutdown deadline closes in, setting up a Senate fight that will reveal who actually believes in borders and the rule of law. And as a major winter storm pushes states into emergency posture, we break down why ice is the quiet disaster that exposes weak systems and punishes last-minute improvisation, plus the practical steps to keep your family safe and steady through the weekend.
