This Week On Capitol Hill | October 25, 2025

“SCHUMER SHUTDOWN CONTINUES ONLY TO APPEASE DEMOCRATS “LEFT-WING NUTTY BASE”: On this week’s edition, U.S. House Majority Leader STEVE SCALISE (R-LA) decries the federal government’s Schumer Shutdown heading into its 4th week for no reason other than Democrats “wanting to demonstrate to their left-wing, nutty base that they’re fighting Donald Trump.” ELIZABETH MITCHELL, White House correspondent for The Daily Signal, breaks down the latest shutdown developments and whether any offramp is in sight for ending the impasse as a November 1st food stamp cutoff approaches…and previews President DONALD J. TRUMP’s trip to Japan and South Korea. U.S. Senator LINDSEY GRAHAM (R-S.C.) predicts there will be no lasting peace in Israel until a “stabilization force” is in-place and once the International community stops policies which threaten Israel. And TONY PERKINS’ commentary predicts the enemies of Israel need to be disabused of the “false hope of a Palestinian State” within the God-given borders of Israel. All that and more on TWOCH, sponsored by AARP and AMERICANS FOR PROSPERITY.
