March 14, 2025: Congress Debates a Shutdown While Europe’s Military Runs on Empty

Join us as we break down the continuing resolution (CR) currently before the Senate—what it funds, what it cuts, and whether Democrats are willing to risk a government shutdown over it. Despite Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer signaling support for the measure, will party divisions create last-minute chaos?

Next, we turn to Europe’s military readiness—or lack thereof. Reports reveal severe manpower and funding shortages, leaving European nations dangerously dependent on U.S. military support to deter aggression. We discuss what this means for NATO, global security, and America's long-term strategic interests.

Finally, in “This Day in History,” we revisit the invention of the cotton gin, Eli Whitney’s groundbreaking machine that transformed the cotton industry, the economy, and—unintentionally—American history itself.
