Guests: Terry Bell
Speaker Mike Johnson has struck a deal on the federal budget with Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. This surprisingly pragmatic move will keep government agencies open without further continuing resolutions. However, this begs the question: why is Mike Johnson allowed to make deals? When Kevin McCarthy attempted to approve a nearly identical budget, he lost his position as Speaker of the House. Todd takes your calls on this quandary, also asking what you would prioritize if you could write the federal budget.
Also, Civic Media News Director Terry Bell updates us on the results of a bet between Todd, Luke, and himself.
