Mike Gallagher Show Week in Review for 10.17.25

Democrats admit they’re leveraging American pain for political gain — and Mike’s not letting it slide. From the shocking words of Democrat Whip Catherine Clark, who openly bragged about using shutdown suffering as “leverage,” to Texas Rep. Jolanda Jones declaring she’d “slit throats” over politics, the left’s mask is slipping fast. Meanwhile, some Republicans, including Hugh Hewitt and Sid Rosenberg, line up behind Andrew Cuomo — the disgraced “COVID killer” — leaving Mike asking: how can any conservative endorse that?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trump’s latest AI meme has the left losing it — a fighter jet, a crown, and, yes, a “poop drop” over D.C. sparks outrage from CNN to Congress.

From ugly scenes at the “No Kings” protests to shocking behavior from a Chicago teacher mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Mike dives into the chaos rocking the country. But while bad actors made headlines, he asks a surprising question — why be angry at peaceful protest? In a calm, unapologetic reality check, Mike argues that disagreement is an American value, not something to condemn.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
