In this fiery commentary, we dig into the air-traffic-controller funding mess, SNAP debates, and why both parties keep missing chances to fix broken systems. From Truth Social filibuster threats to judges praising emergency action, it's another example of Washington choosing theatrics over solutions. Why can’t airlines front temporary pay for controllers and get reimbursed? Why not use crises to reform waste instead of rubber-stamping old programs? Meanwhile, Democrats seize windows for policy wins and Republicans… well, they seem allergic to winning plays. The shutdown continues, spending never stops, and no one in D.C. appears ready to face real fiscal reform.
