Elon Lectures In Defiance & Trump Nods While They Bring U.S. To the Brink 12/20/24

The Mark Thompson Show

In a show of power and influence, Elon Musk whispered his dismay over a bipartisan government funding deal into Donald Trump's ear and the pair worked to threaten and pressure Republicans to support a different last minute Trump/Musk approved deal.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says Republicans will "come up with another solution" but the deadline to avoid a government shutdown is today. Journalist and political analyst Michael Shure returns - this time as a guest. We’ll talk politics and get his take on the shutdown situation. It’s a very Florida Christmas.

Our movie critic, The Culture Blaster Michael Snyder, will be along to tell us which ones are worth seeing.
