About this episode

The episode discusses why Trump's own party rejected his plan for a January 6th slush fund and features an interview with Congressman Suhas Subramanyam about the Department of Justice's handling of the Epstein files.

Trump wanted taxpayer money set aside for a 'slush fund' critics feared would be used to payout millions for his January 6th allies. But in a rare act of defiance, Republicans have killed off the plan before it could become reality. Why did Trump’s own party draw the line here? Was it a principled stand, a political calculation, or a sign that some Republicans are growing nervous about defending everything linked to January 6th? And Has Trump pushed Republicans too far this time? Later, Congressman Suhas Subramanyam joins us to discuss the Department of Justice's handling of the Epstein files.
