As the current government shutdown enters a second month, Senator Mark Kelly joins Mosh to explain what the standoff means for millions of Americans — as funding for SNAP benefits and childcare programs is about to run out. The Arizona Democrat lays out what Democrats are demanding before agreeing to a GOP bill to reopen the government, and why he believes President Trump alone can unlock a deal. The conversation also dives into major global events — from Trump’s new trade deal with China to U.S. tensions in Venezuela and a potential return to nuclear weapons testing. Drawing on his military experience, Kelly weighs the risks of the escalation in Latin America and Trump's response to China and Russia. 🐝 This podcast was recorded from the Mo News office at Industrious at Midtown on 50th St. Mosheh Oinounou (@mosheh) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.
