Conservative Radio Host Makes the Case to Keep the Government Open

We’re days away from a government shutdown. House Republicans unveiled a six-month continuing resolution to keep the government funded as Congress presses on with the budget reconciliation process that will make the Trump tax cuts permanent, secure the border, and finish the wall, among other things. I don’t mind a good shutdown, but we can’t afford one now.

We can’t let the liberal media and the Democrats have a win here, which will be a ‘GOP in disarray’ narrative. Also, with Democrats having no message, why give them this easy dub? On his show Monday, Salem Media Group's Hugh Hewitt made these points in supporting the CR on the Hill: Keep the deportations rolling, keep the rebuilding of our defense going, and keep the DOGE DOGE-ing. 

Eye on the prize, which is getting through the budget reconciliation process relatively unscathed. Also, even CBS News pointed out why the Democrats want a short-term funding measure, which is the alternative: they’re worried about DOGE.
