Breaking news, government spending rabbit holes, and a casual suggestion that the U.S. should own Gaza—this episode has it all. Meseidy and Rachel dig into the Politico funding scandal, the Musk-led government spending audit (aka "Doge"), and the meltdown happening in real time among Democrats who just realized their taxpayer-funded slush fund might be drying up. Also, Trump’s latest curveball: a plan to turn Gaza into the "Riviera of the Middle East." Did Netanyahu see that coming? Did anyone? Plus, the latest on Trump’s cabinet picks, a major win for women’s sports, and why the media is working overtime to gaslight you about government waste. Buckle up—this episode moves fast.

Episode Highlights:

Politico's Secret Paycheck – Why was Politico getting millions in federal funds, and why did they suddenly struggle with payroll when the spending freeze hit? 🤔
Doge Exposes the Swamp – Elon Musk has access to government spending records, and Democrats are big mad about it.
Trump's Gaza Gambit – A bold move, a real estate pitch, or a negotiation tactic? The ladies break down the shocking announcement.
