  • 'If You Can Keep It': The Fight Over Funding The Government

    'If You Can Keep It': The Fight Over Funding The Government
    Sep 22 2025
    It happens every year — sometimes even more frequently than that.


    A fight is brewing over funding the government before a deadline at the end of September. On Friday, Republicans in the House of Representatives, led by Speaker Mike Johnson, passed a stop-gap measure to fund the government through Nov. 21.


    This is all happening against the backdrop of President Donald Trump’s summer of immigration raids, the deployment of the National Guard to Washington D.C., and the claw back of approved federal funding.


    In this installment of 1A‘s weekly politics series, we talk about how this month’s government funding fight could turn into a shutdown, and what Democrats could demand in exchange for keeping the government open.

    The News Roundup For September 9, 2025
    Sep 19 2025
    In a blow to free speech, TV host Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show was suspended from ABC’s lineup after the comedian made jokes about President Donald Trump’s relationship with the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

    The 22-year-old suspect in Kirk’s killing was charged on Tuesday in Utah County with aggravated murder. The state is seeking the death penalty.

    This week the president announced the National Guard will be deployed to Memphis, Tennessee.

    Meanwhile, a United Nations commission concluded that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza against the Palestinian people.

    The UK rolled out the red carpet for President Trump during his visit with the royal family and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. In a press conference at the conclusion of the trip Trump said the two governments were making ties “closer than ever before.”

    Following recent Russian drone incursions in its own airspace, Poland suggests the European Union should set up a no-fly zone over Ukraine.

  • ICYMI: US Destroys Another Boat Coming From Venezuela

    ICYMI: US Destroys Another Boat Coming From Venezuela
    Sep 19 2025
    Fourteen people are dead after the U.S. military launched strikes on two Venezuelan boats this month in international waters. President Donald Trump says they were heading towards the U.S.

    That’s despite reports from several agencies saying the boat attacked two weeks ago was headed away from the U.S. when it was hit. Trump is also accusing the boats of being connected to Venezuelan drug trafficking cartels that he says posed a threat to the U.S.

    Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro, says the U.S. is trying to start a war.

    We discuss the stakes and what we know about the situation.
