Summary

Tonight at midnight, the government could be shut down, but Speaker Kevin McCarthy is trying to avoid that shutdown by passing a short-term spending bill that would delay it for 45 days if he prevails. Either way that vote goes, whether McCarthy wins or loses, the only representatives who emerge from all of this with their integrity intact are the 21 Republicans who voted against McCarthy s compromise earlier and with the Dems.

00:00:00.000 I'm Lou Dobbs with this Great America Show midday update for September 30th,
00:00:04.660 which coincidentally happens to be the end of the federal government's fiscal year.
00:00:09.140 And tonight at midnight, there could be a government shutdown.
00:00:13.220 But Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who's being mocked as weak and incompetent by both parties,
00:00:18.740 is trying to avoid that shutdown by passing a short-term spending bill
00:00:22.760 and would delay any shutdown for 45 days if he prevails.
00:00:27.400 Either way that vote goes, whether McCarthy wins or loses,
00:00:32.240 the only representatives who emerge from all of this with their integrity intact
00:00:36.700 are the 21 Republicans who voted against McCarthy's compromise earlier and with the Dems.
00:00:43.580 Such is the stuff of our national capital these days.
00:00:47.480 The Marxist Dems' junkyard jackal of a special prosecutor, Nasty Jack Smith,
00:00:52.840 wants the Marxist Dem judge in the president's classified documents case
00:00:57.680 to put out a gag order against President Trump.
00:01:01.180 And why?
00:01:02.260 Because President Trump makes incendiary statements and gets a lot of attention.
00:01:07.300 More than a Bolshevik thug like Smith,
00:01:10.400 if for no other reason, and there are lots of good reasons,
00:01:14.120 the country should tell Mr. Smith to go straight to hell.
00:01:17.100 The judge is no less partisan than Smith and refused to recuse herself,
00:01:22.380 despite her many anti-Trump statements and actions.
00:01:26.140 The FBI, the DOJ, and yes, the federal judiciary are the most corrupt of all federal agencies and departments,
00:01:34.440 except, of course, for the White House itself and intelligence agencies.
00:01:38.740 Our intelligence agencies are working overtime these days,
00:01:42.500 trying to keep up with rising threats from China.
00:01:44.900 Our guests today on The Great America Show are Gordon Chang and Tony Schaefer,
00:01:49.340 who analyze the impact on national security as a result of those Chinese threats and power,
00:01:56.760 and what a cognitively impaired and corrupt commander-in-chief just might do in a conflict with China.
00:02:04.180 Please join us for that today and each and every day.
00:02:07.880 I'm Lou Dobbs with this Great America Update.
