SNAP, Shutdown & Showdowns: Judge Orders Full Payments, Pelosi Retires, NYC Defund Push (Ep 579)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

A federal judge orders full SNAP payments for November—even during the shutdown. How can a court compel spending when “the money isn’t there”? Joey breaks down the legal levers (injunctions, contingency funds, and agency discretion) and what it means for taxpayers and 42 million SNAP recipients.

Plus: Rep. Buddy Carter’s MAMDANI Act would block all federal funds to New York City while socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani is in office. Smart pushback—or pure symbolism that still frames 2026?

We also cover Nancy Pelosi’s retirement (effective January 2027): respect for the first female Speaker’s trailblazing role—and a frank look at the divisive legacy she leaves behind.

South Carolina Lt. Gov. Pamella Evette joins us to respond to the Nancy Mace airport-police controversy and the governor’s race drama.

Travel alert: as the shutdown drags on, the feds order steep flight cuts at 40 major airports—expect delays and cancellations. And the Supreme Court allows the State Department’s biological-sex passport policy to proceed (for now).

Bernie vs. Schumer, Flight Cuts, and the Fight for Transparency (Ep 578)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Democrats may be celebrating their election wins — but all is not well inside the party.
At a post-election press conference, Sen. Bernie Sanders crashed Chuck Schumer’s podium, blasting party leadership for abandoning socialist candidates like New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. What followed was a stunning display of infighting and political tension that shows how fractured the Democratic coalition has become.

Meanwhile, the Schumer Shutdown enters week five — and the fallout is hitting air travelers hard. The FAA and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced a 10% reduction in flights across 40 major airports due to staffing shortages. If you’re flying this weekend, you’ll want to double-check your plans.

And in an emotional moment that’s gripping the nation — Erika Kirk, widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, is calling for cameras to remain in the courtroom for the trial of her husband’s accused killer. “There were cameras when my husband was murdered,” she said. “There should be cameras for the truth.”

We’ll cover all that and more — plus my take on what Tuesday’s results really mean for 2026.
The bottom line: we’ve got work to do.

Election Shock: GOP Stumbles, Shutdown Fallout, and Lou Holtz Sounds Off (Ep 577)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

It wasn’t a good night for Republicans. From coast to coast, Democrats held key ground in Tuesday’s elections—despite predictions that voters would punish them over the month-long Schumer Shutdown.

We’ll break down what happened, why it matters, and how it could shift the balance in Washington.

🏈 Legendary coach Lou Holtz is weighing in too—reminding Americans there’s “no free lunch” and calling on Democrats to reopen the government and stop making empty promises.

Plus—another Washington showdown. Texas Congressman Brandon Gill has officially filed articles of impeachment against U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, reigniting debate over accountability, transparency, and the weaponization of the justice system.

We’ve got all that and more—today on Just the Truth with Joey Hudson.

Trump’s Fiery “60 Minutes” Showdown, AI Deepfakes Exposed, and the Fight for Voter Integrity (Ep 575)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

President Donald Trump made headlines this weekend after a tense, no-holds-barred interview on CBS’s “60 Minutes.” From nuclear testing to immigration crackdowns, the President didn’t pull any punches — and we’ve got the highlights.

Plus, a federal judge blocks Trump’s citizenship-proof order for voter registration — a move raising big questions about election integrity and who gets to protect the ballot box.

We’re also digging into a disturbing new trend online: AI-generated deepfake videos showing fake food-stamp recipients “melting down” over the shutdown. They look real… but they’re not. What does this mean for truth in the digital age?

And finally, we turn local — a South Carolina death-row inmate chooses execution by firing squad while questions about capital punishment continue to stir debate across the state.

Ceasefire Whiplash: What “Enforcement” Really Means (Jerusalem Update) (Ep 573)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Broadcasting Day 4 from Jerusalem at JNS. The ceasefire is “back on”—but only because Israel is enforcing it after Hamas violations. We break down the IDF’s targeted strikes, the politics of “peace through strength,” and the narrative war playing out with staged propaganda claims.

Plus: Trump’s renewed maritime crackdown on cartels—why the open sea is no longer a safe corridor for cocaine runners, and how squeezing sea lanes changes cartel math. And back home: Washington, D.C. endures one of its most violent weekends of the year—even with beefed-up security—raising hard questions about policing, prosecution, and priorities.

We also hit quick updates on culture and antisemitism controversies in NYC.

Hamas Violates Ceasefire Again: Schumer Prolongs Shutdown (Ep 572)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Shalom from day two in Israel…broadcasting from the Jewish News Syndicate …

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered "immediate and powerful strikes" just down the road in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday after an Israeli military official told the media that Hamas violated the ceasefire….again.

I will be sharing with you a conversation I had yesterday with Uri Avouskine about what the people of Israel really believe about the peace agreement with Hamas and where he thinks we are headed.

Also today….Senate Democrats on Tuesday blocked Republicans’ 13th attempt to reopen the government after having nearly a week to mull their options — pressure is starting to boil over  with a series of drop dead deadlines rapidly closing in.
