In this episode, we're talking about government shutdowns and the hypocrisy of Congress. Michael is calling out lawmakers for getting paid while federal workers go without. He's also discussing the recent "Champagne Socialist Spring Break" where a group of progressive activists, including Code Pink and Ezra Hershey, traveled to Cuba in style, staying in a five-star hotel while the rest of the country was in the dark. We'll dive into the details of this controversy and explore the disconnect between the actions of these activists and their claims of solidarity with the Cuban people.
