As the national debt tick upward past $22 trillion, Congress is getting ready to pile on yet more debt as they consider a massive omnibus bill. We discuss with Heritage budget expert Justin Bogie to unpack the good, the bad, and the ugly. Plus: It looks like Republicans called the Democrats’ bluff on the Green New Deal — and they’re relishing it.

We also cover these stories:
• President Trump will sign the omnibus spending, and then declare a national emergency on the border.
• Former deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe reportedly said that he Department of Justice was considering whether Trump could be removed from office using the 25th amendment.
• Amazon announces it won’t be opening a second headquarters in New York City,, after all.
