In this week's episode the Powell men discuss the capitulation of 8 Democratic senators who brought an end to the #GovernmentShutdown . #TimKaine #JeanneShaheen #MaggieHassan #CatherineCortezMasto #JohnFetterman #JackyRosen #DickDurbin #AngusKing all voted to end the shutdown after #41Days . There will be discussion over whether it was worth it to return #SNAPBenefits and the #salaries of #Furloughed workers . We think #ChuckSchumer fumbled the bag. We also say goodbye to #NBA #legend #LennyWilkens who was a two time #BasketballHOF inductee as a coach and player. #Brooklyn born Wilkens is legendary in #Seattle basketball . Not so legendary is #BrianDaboll , #NYGiants recently fired head coach. The man responsible for trading #DanielJones and #SaquanBarkley . Most recently he ran #JaxsonDart into a concussion. Good riddence.

In this week's episode the Powell men discuss the looming food crisis as Mango Mussolini and his congressional minions continue to play with people's lives by denying them #SNAP benefits. #America has become a shit hole country under #Trump . Fortunately for Derek and his granddaughter they won't need snap. All they need is love as Derek fully embraces being a grandpa. #ElectionDay is here . There are some big time elections around the country. #NewJersey and #Virginia have gubernatorial races . Hopefully #MikieSherrill prevails in the #GardenState . In VA #AbigailSpanberger is poised to flip the governor's mansion. All eyes however, are on the #NewYorkCityMayor race. Will #ZohranMamdani make a statement to the rest of the nation? My fingers are crossed that he will. This past week we watched #NewYorkCityFlood as a #noreaster dropped buckets of rain. This followed a #category5 #hurricanemelissa that devastated #Jamaica. Our thoughts are with the citizens of the island. One Love!

In this week's episode the Powell men discuss the last decade of life. Hopefully this is not the #lastdecade, however we all agree that as #DrPeterAttia suggested on #60Minutes that we need to prepare today to live a great life in the last years of our lives. #CBS #NoraODonell has work to do. We need to rebuild our bodies like #Trump needs to rebuild the #EastWing of the #WhiteHouse. The #NBA has a gambling problem. #ChaunceyBillups , #TerryRozier , and #DamonJones are in deep doo doo.

In this week's episode the Powell men discuss the return of #Jimmykimmel and the impending indictment of former #FBIDirector #JamesComey. Naturally these are all distractions form #JeffreyEpstein . #PeteHegseth has ordered all of the admirals and generals back to #quantico to hear him speak. Kegseth is endangering us all. Keith asks if ww're collectively better off since the #CivilRightsMovement . We're not so sure. No generational wealth , poor work ethic, and our money not being spent in our communites has hurt us. we do , however , get to sit in the front of the bus.
