On this episode, President Trump has called Washington’s D.C. a ‘rat-infested…sh—hole’. Over $1 billion in city funding earmarked for 2025 has been held up by Republican lawmakers and the federal workforce is being decimated. Today, the gang is joined by local reporters Meagan Flynn and Emily Davies to make sense of the Trump administration’s complex and at times combative relationship with the nation’s capital.

Washington’s federal workforce is reeling, with mass layoffs already announced and implemented across government agencies. The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, continues to create fear, chaos and confusion amongst government employees.

Plus, Trump signs an Executive Order aimed at shuttering the Department of Education. We tell you what that means, and why it matters.
