Summary
CannCon and Ashe open with a Missouri Deputy Attorney General surviving five days lost in the Wyoming wilderness before turning to Congress, where a ballooning lame duck agenda has lawmakers punting government funding, Iran war money, and surveillance authority extensions until after the election. They dig into the House voting to condemn socialism in all its forms with eight Democrats crossing over, and have some fun with the definitional problems that creates. The middle of the show covers a Russia sanctions bill stalling out in the House and President Trump welcoming Russia back to the G20 in North Carolina, much to Europe's irritation. The election segment features a Harmeet Dhillon interview and a look at deportation numbers that sparks a moving discussion about the people caught up in it. They close with a candid conversation about scripture, Christian Zionism, and reading verses in full.
