Congress Faces Showdowns on Spending, Epstein Files, and GOP Divisions
On "The Final 5", Eric Michael Garcia, Washington Bureau Chief for The Independent, broke down a packed September on Capitol Hill. From the first release of Epstein files to Republican fractures over Rep. Thomas Massie?s discharge petition, Garcia noted that GOP leaders remain in control of Congress?s direction despite Democratic pushback. He also highlighted looming deadlines on government funding, new White House rescissions, and conservative resistance to short-term spending bills. Beyond legislation, Garcia addressed speculation over President Trump?s health, calling it more a product of media overcorrection than credible concern.
