BlazeTV contributors Jaco Booyens and Eric July join the show to discuss a wild weekend at the U.S. Capitol where Congress narrowly avoided a government shutdown. The recent stopgap funding bill did not include additional aid for Ukraine. However, it did allocate an extra $16 billion for natural disaster assistance. Democratic Representative Jamaal Bowman of New York was captured on video pulling a fire alarm in a Capitol office building shortly before the vote to keep the government open. He stated that he pulled the fire alarm because he believed it would open a door that is typically accessible for votes but was locked on that specific day. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is currently facing an effort led by conservative Representative Matt Gaetz to remove him from his position. This move is driven by frustrations among Gaetz and other House conservatives who believe McCarthy has not taken sufficient action to reduce federal spending. Former President Donald Trump is currently facing a civil fraud trial in New York. Prosecutors have accused him of inflating the value of his properties significantly, by billions of dollars, in order to obtain loans from banks. One specific example mentioned is Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, which his lawyers claim is worth at least $1 billion, in contrast to the $18 million valuation suggested by prosecutors.
