Trump’s Border Wall Back On: $46.5B Approved | Chicago’s Violent Weekend | Redistricting War 2025 (Ep 523)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

President Trump’s border agenda is back in force: 100 miles of new barriers are underway, and Congress approved $46.5B to add hundreds more miles. We break down what’s funded, where, and why the politics flipped.

Plus: Chicago’s Labor Day weekend violence — the latest shooting totals vs. Governor JB Pritzker’s refusal to accept federal help — and what federal intervention has (and hasn’t) done in other cities.

Also on the rundown:

• The US Open “hat-snatcher”: a Polish CEO apologizes after grabbing a signed cap from a kid — fallout and the lesson for grown-ups in sports.

• Another Hollywood goodbye now that Trump’s back in the White House — who’s leaving and why the script feels familiar.

• The redistricting wars of 2025: Texas locks in GOP gains while other states eye mid-decade remaps to counter — why this could decide control of Congress.
