This week on Dispatch Live is focused entirely on Congress. With an omnibus spending package framework announced just moments before Steve, Haley, and Declan went live and a fight to become speaker of the House for Kevin McCarthy, there was no shortage of things to talk about for this trio. Tune in to see which Star Wars movie poster is in Haley’s background.

    Honestly, I wouldn’t stop reading TMD or anything if you got rid of that opening gag or skipped it sometimes. It’s pretty funny though sometimes. Do NOT get rid of Worth Your Time, though.

    If Jonah gets rid of the Dear Reader gag, though, ~30% of TD subscribers will unsubscribe…

    Also I’d happily pay double in taxes if Congress would do its job and pass budgets on time. I don’t subscribe to the “dysfunction is good” school of libertarianism. The regulatory state isn’t going to stop choking the free market just because Congress does a Continuing Resolution.
