TWO DEMS RESCUE GOP AGENDA, US LOCKS VENEZUELA OIL | JUST THE NEWS - NO NOISE

Two Blue Dog Democrats — Jared Golden (Maine) and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Washington) — crossed the aisle today to pass a razor-thin 210-208 rule after five House Republicans rebelled. Their votes saved Speaker Johnson’s agenda, including a resolution condemning socialism. Democratic leaders said they got no warning. Federal probes keep widening around Gavin Newsom’s orbit: former chief of staff Dana Williamson pleaded guilty in a scheme that siphoned $225,000 from Xavier Becerra’s campaign account. Behested payments, nonprofit questions, and massive Medi-Cal/Medicare fraud cases continue to pile up. Rep. James Gallagher (R-CA), former Assembly GOP leader now in Congress, joins the conversation. The White House is calling it the biggest oil deal in history. North American Blue Energy Partners received 100-year concessions on 17 fields holding ~65 billion barrels. The U.S. takes a 35% equity stake plus offtake rights. Officials frame it as energy security and a counter to Chinese/Russian influence. Energy Secretary Wright is heading to Venezuela. After the August jungle primary and last-minute withdrawals/disqualifications, conservative businesswoman and radio host Bernadette Wilson advanced to the November ranked-choice ballot. She is the top remaining Republican and is campaigning on full PFD dividends, spending cuts, and ending ranked-choice voting. Hosts John Solomon and Amanda Head break it down with Rep. James Gallagher and Alaska GOP gubernatorial candidate Bernadette Wilson. Should more Democrats break ranks like Golden and Perez — or does crossing the aisle on a socialism resolution just hand Republicans a midterm weapon? #JustTheNews #NoNoise #RealAmericasVoice #JohnSolomon #AmandaHead #HouseVote #VenezuelaOil #CaliforniaCorruption #AlaskaGovernor #2026Midterms John Solomon and Amanda Head deliver hard-hitting news with no spin and no noise.
