Ben Shapiro: 本期节目主要讨论了美国国会就持续决议案（CR）的激烈辩论。该法案包含巨额的灾难救济和农业补贴，引发了关于政府过度支出的争议。Shapiro分析了参与各方的利益和立场，包括特朗普希望在就职前解决债务上限问题，Johnson试图在党内达成共识，以及Musk领导的Doge团队揭露法案中的"肥肉"。Shapiro认为，政治是原则和实用主义的平衡，议长需要在不同利益集团之间进行协调，这不可避免地导致妥协和让步。他批评了那些认为所有妥协都是"出卖"的观点，并指出，在政治中，获得70%-80%的理想结果已经算成功。 Mike Johnson: Johnson解释说，持续决议是为了应对飓风和农业困境造成的紧急情况，并为新一届共和党政府在2025年获得更多预算控制权铺平道路。他承认该法案存在不足，但强调其必要性，并指出联邦政府有责任向受灾地区提供援助。他还强调了他与特朗普和Musk保持着沟通，并认为该法案是所有糟糕选择中最不糟糕的一个。 Elon Musk: Musk对持续决议的妥协表示强烈不满，并公开批评该法案，称其为"犯罪"和"对美国人民的疯狂犯罪"。他承诺将资助任何投票支持该法案的议员的初选对手。 Vivek Ramaswamy: Ramaswamy揭露了该法案中隐藏的支出项目，并批评其支出，认为其弊大于利。他呼吁民众联系他们的国会议员，要求他们否决该法案。 Donald Trump 和 JD Vance: Trump和Vance对持续决议的妥协表示不满，并对Johnson施加了压力。他们认为，该法案中的某些条款对美国人民不利，并呼吁通过一项不包含民主党让步的精简支出法案。 Kristen Wagner: Wagner介绍了ADF成立"言论自由中心"的背景，指出政府与私人机构合谋进行审查制度的现象日益严重，并表示ADF将继续努力通过诉讼来保护言论自由。
