President Trump is vowing to “lead the charge” to unseat Republican Represenative Thomas Massie of Kentucky after the congressman declared he will not support the GOP’s short-term government funding bill ahead of Friday’s shutdown deadline.

Trump began a Truth Social post late Monday night by thanking the House Freedom Caucus for backing the stopgap funding package and supporting Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) efforts to keep the government open, and then lit into Massie and called for him to be primaried.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Massie is fulfilling the MAGA promises even more than Trump and why he likely doesn’t need to worry about Trump’s threats.

The overthrow of Bashar al-Assad in Syria has not led to stability in the war-torn nation. In fact, death squads affiliated with the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) that now rules over much of Syria have been blamed for more than 1,000 killings in the past week, most of them civilian members of the Alawite minority of deposed president Bashar al-Assad. Syrian Christians fear they will be the next group targeted by the HTS security forces.

Jimmy and renowned public policy analyst Jeffrey Sachs discuss the situation on the ground in Syria and this predictable outcome of Assad’s ouster by radical Islamists backed by the CIA.

Senate Republicans on Wednesday passed a measure to allow payment apps like Venmo and PayPal to return to ideological debanking—repealing a rule implemented in December by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Repeal of the rule would leave users of the apps in limbo, as the laws protecting consumers would still be in place, but the rule enforcing the law—and the bureau with the capacity to enforce it—would not.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the bill, which has not yet passed in the House, and how it will allow these payment app companies to deny service to individuals or groups on ideological grounds.
