Jack Hunter, editor of Rare Politics, discusses Bannon's 10-hour testimony before the House Intel Committee yesterday where he cited executive privilege to avoid answering questions about his time in the West Wing. Hunter also digs into the government shutdown that will take place at the end of the week if the House and Senate are not able to agree on a plan to extend government funding. Hunter speaks about what state of mind Bannon might be in now that he and the White House have had a falling out. There is no way to know what Bannon might have to lose heading into his meeting with Mueller. Hunter talks the looming government shutdown and what Democrats and Republicans could lose if a spending bill is not agreed upon. We talk DACA and what it would mean for the country if 800,000 Dreamers lose their protection.

Trump Administration Shutters Consumer Protection Agency
The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
