## Resource

Trump is getting VERY bad news! GOP lawmakers are starting to push back against the $1.8 billion slush fund, two DC officers tied to January 6 are now suing the government, and Trump’s flashy ballroom project may already be hitting a wall in Congress. And tonight marks the end of an era as Stephen Colbert signs off for his final show. But don’t cry for him, cry for the first amendment. We are joined by DC Officer Harry Dunn to break it all down.
