Compromise and MAGA Do Not Mix
This episode was recorded the day after Representative Kevin McCarthy became the first Speaker of the House of Representatives to ever be removed from the role during a legislative session. This was the result of the motion filed by Rep. Matt Gaetz on October 3rd in response to the temporary funding bill introduced by McCarthy that gained Democratic support and prevented a government shutdown. In light of these events, we’re reflecting on just how far the MAGA movement is willing to go to advance its platform, refusing to accept even the faintest hint of compromise.
