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).

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
