In this episode of Being Extra, Jeni and Phillip dive into the chaos surrounding the latest budget bill and the growing fractures within the Democratic Party. They break down what the bill actually did (spoiler: billionaires win, working people lose), why House Democrats fought against it while Senate Democrats caved, and what a government shutdown could have meant.
The conversation gets heated as they explore the deep divisions between progressives, moderates, and centrists—are Democrats fighting for the right things, or just fighting each other? And most importantly, if Democrats can’t unite, are they handing Republicans another victory?
Jeni and Phillip keep it extra as always, calling out both parties, debating whether Democrats need to toughen up, and asking the big question: When we fight, do we really win?
🎧 Tune in for political tea, strong opinions, and a no-BS breakdown of what’s really going on in Washington.
