On the Friday edition of The Daily Daily Caller Podcast, we cover the latest drama out of DC — the congressional trip that wasn't.

President Donald Trump canceling the Democrats' seven-day trip to Europe and the Middle East because they should be in town negotiating an end to the government shutdown was met with clutched pearls by Democrats and the media. This came only a day after they all cheered Speaker Nancy Pelosi's attempt to cancel the State of the Union address. Hypocrisy much?

We continue mocking the more ridiculous "#ShutdownStories" on social media and have a talk with Kurt Schlichter about his new novel, the situation in Syria, and when is it time to cut-bait in Afghanistan.

Democrats claim to be very concerned with the fate of federal workers furloughed during the government shutdown, but some were ready to spend seven days in Belgium, Egypt, and Afghanistan rather than work to end the impasse. How could a deal be struck if the speaker of the House was on the other side of the planet?

Thankfully, we don't have to find out because Trump canceled the trip. This, naturally, led to a complete meltdown on the left. But if a State of the Union address was inappropriate during a shutdown, how is a week long taxpayer-funded trip around the world cool? As Democrats were on the bus ready to head to the airport, the president decided we shouldn't find out.

Media-types were beside themselves, going so far as to wonder what it will take for congressional Democrats to start impeachment proceedings. Not even kidding.

Should the U.S. pull out of Syria, and how much time do we have to give the Afghan people to be able to stand up to tyranny on their own before we can pull out? If they can't stand by now, will they ever be able to? We talk about all that and his new novel "Wildfire" with author and retired Army Colonel Kurt Schlichter.

Speaker Pelosi wants to deny President Donald Trump another national platform

On Thursday's podcast, we get into the claim by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that the State of the Union should be delayed over security concerns related to the shutdown. We also discuss liberals' use of homophobic smears against Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, the Washington Post becoming the victim of fake news, MSNBC anchors thinking education spending has been slashed across the country, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appearing ready to pull a group sexual act on the progressive agenda (her words).

Nancy Pelosi is so concerned for the security of the president and members of Congress that she wants to postpone the State of the Union Address until after the shutdown. She apparently fears that Secret Service isn't professional enough to do its job while the agency's pay is deferred. When it was pointed out to her that the Secret Service says its perfectly prepared for the speech, she responded, "I don't care what they said."

This attempted delay is, of course, nothing more than a ploy to deny the president a national stage from which to point out the strength of the economy and make another call for funding the wall. Most importantly, and most terrifying to Democrats, is what the president would most certainly do — use the occasion to highlight "angel families," Americans who've lost loved ones to illegal aliens. Presidents invite Americans to sit with the first lady during the speech, and there's no doubt President Donald Trump would invite such family members. Liberals can't allow that visual to happen. We make the case.

Liberals are quick to cry "homophobia" against comedians for decades-old jokes, but silent when they deploy homophobia to attack Republicans. MSNBC personality Stephanie Ruhle claimed South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham supports Trump because Graham is gay and afraid of being outed. Ruhle isn't alone, liberals have a long history of gay jokes and smears against Graham, but they're never called out for them because they're the ones who'd call them out. We expose them.

The Washington Post was very upset Wednesday by some fake news done in their name. A group of liberal activists printed a fake edition of the paper claiming Trump resigned. The Post scrambled to denounce the hoax, but a parody with liberal fever-dreams throughout it wouldn't be so believable if it didn't so closely resemble the real thing.

MSNBC personalities Katy Tur and Ali Velshi had a discussion about education and both were convinced governments across the country have been slashing education budgets for years. They blame trickle-down economics and tax cuts in general while claiming that "spreading the wealth around" is the only way to go.

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced her plans to gangbang the progressive agenda this year in Congress. If that sounds crazy, that's only because it is. But it's what she said when she used the slang term "run train" in response to the Washington Post. You can't make this stuff up.

Plus, we have shutdown sob stories, as collected by Democratic Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, set to the music from the documentary "The Civil War," inserted throughout the show. You won't want to miss it.

Liberals don't live by the standards they impose on others

On today's Daily Daily Caller Podcast, we give an update on the shutdown, talk about the allegations of racism against a Republican while pointing out racism being ignored by liberals because it's by Democrats, disappoint people expecting the nominee for attorney general to rein in the Mueller investigation, and dabble in Brexit (like the UK government is). Check it out.

As the government shutdown continues, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has announced that the House will not go into recess next week if the stalemate persists. Yes, there is a planned week off for Congress because working 3 weeks in a row is too much for Congress. Also, there probably aren't any lobbyist paid-for trips to the Caribbean islands scheduled for Democrats next weekend like there was last weekend.

Hoyer launched a new website designed to highlight shutdown sob stories, but they're all pretty lame so far.

Democrats are quick to cry racism, no matter the circumstance. As official Washington lines up to condemn Republican Rep. Steve King of Iowa for things he says were taken out of context, liberals are ignoring blatant racism in their own ranks. On the day an MSNBC personality declared there is no racism on the left, the DNC pulled sponsorship from this weekend's Women's March over racism and anti-Semitism among its leaders and a CNN legal analyst accused a black man of benefiting from "white privilege." She, of course, didn't know the man was black because the interview was over the phone, but being a liberal means she always has a "white privilege" or "racist" chambered and ready to go when the conversation turns to a direction liberals don't like.

The razor company Gillette decided to go "woke" and blame men, their main customers, for all the problems in the world. Now the biggest problem for men who have enough testosterone to need to shave is which razor company to replace their Gillette products with.

People expecting the next attorney general to end the Mueller investigation are going to be disappointed by President Donald Trump's choice, as he testified Tuesday that he won't intervene with the special counsel.

And Brexit is falling apart. Oh well, the U.K. had a good run as a nation.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's all this and more on today's show.
