CD326: October 2025 — Slippery Barnacles

In this episode, you'll hear what actually happened in Congress during October 2025, a month dominated by a record-breaking shutdown. While the House was on vacation, the Senate enacted mass confirmations of over 100 Trump-aligned nominees—many with extreme views, conflicts of interest, or industry ties—as well as the surprising bipartisan pushback against Trump's global tariff abuses. We also examine the Senate's failed attempt to stop Trump's unauthorized overseas boat strikes.
