A brief government shutdown ends after a closely divided House vote, leaving unresolved questions around Department of Homeland Security funding and Republican divisions. This episode examines proposed changes to federal election rules, including the SAVE Act and renewed calls to centralize voting authority, alongside concerns about foreign investment tied to the Trump family. We also look at international investigations involving Elon Musk’s social media platform, ongoing congressional scrutiny related to Jeffrey Epstein, and the broader legal and constitutional implications unfolding in the U.S. and abroad.
