Leave Us Alone with Grover Norquist

The Schumer Shutdown: Spending Demands, Permanent Biden COVID Credits, and the Fight for Fiscal Sanity

48 λεπτά | Παρασκευή, 3 Οκτωβρίου 2025

Grover Norquist, Mike Palicz, and James Erwin break down the government shutdown standoff. Democrats are blocking a clean continuing resolution and demanding $1.5 trillion in new spending, a permanent expansion of Biden COVID credits, and taxpayer funding for NPR. The hosts explain why Republicans must hold firm, why temporary COVID-era subsidies should expire, and how the shutdown is exposing cracks inside the Democratic caucus. Later in the episode, Grover sits down with former Congressman Jeb Hensarling to discuss how new Trump administration reforms could empower workers to invest more freely in their 401(k)s. The goal is to give everyday Americans the same investment opportunities that unions and wealthy elites already enjoy. This episode dives into shutdown politics, spending priorities, and real reforms that protect taxpayers and expand freedom.
