Fiscal Hawk Paul Slows Budget Deal, Shutdown Looms

On the Monday edition of Steve Bannon's War Room podcast, the jailbird vehemently attacked Speaker Johnson's approach to legislation calling him an utter failure. Johnson is proposing a huge omnibus bill that will pass everything the MAGAts and Trump want.
