The Signal Sitdown: Daily Summaries Delivered
by The Daily Signal
Your government is out of control. It’s doing things it has no business doing. It spends way too much money. It gets involved in way too many wars. It not only tells you what you can and can’t say—it actively censors you. And the things your government should do, it can’t, or won’t, do at all. It can’t keep your streets clean of crime and filth. It can’t keep your neighborhoods safe enough for kids to play outside. It can’t even prevent your country from being invaded by millions of illegal migrants. Why is that? Because your leaders no longer represent you. They represent themselves and their friends. On each episode of "The Signal Sitdown," politics editor Bradley Devlin exposes how the sausage really gets made in Washington, D.C. with the help of guests who have experience on the inside. "The Signal Sitdown" takes you inside the biggest battles in Washington, D.C., as they happen. We’ll analyze the policymaking process from an unabashedly and unapologetically conservative perspective and together reclaim government from the self-serving elites. Fingers will be pointed. Names will be named.

Republicans’ Pre-Midterm Strategy: Secure the Elections, Codify Trump’s Wins, and Keep Big Brother Out | Rep. Keith Self
The House of Representatives is back in Washington, D.C., this week following its monthlong August recess, but maybe not for long. Some Republicans just want to go straight home after this week and start working in their districts ahead of the midterm elections. Others want to stay in D.C. and continue to take votes that make Democrats look silly. Rep. Keith Self, a House Freedom Caucus member, joins the Signal Sitdown today with Bradley Devlin to answer that question.

Trump Is Taking a Wrecking Ball to the Woke Smithsonian | Mike Gonzalez
For years, America’s cultural institutions have been used to promote a left-wing interpretation of American history, and the Smithsonian became a prime example. Mike Gonzalez, Senior Fellow with the Heritage Foundation, argues that the Trump administration is now reversing that “long march through the institutions” and demanding that America’s museums present a more accurate account of the nation’s heritage. Bradley Devlin and Gonzalez also discuss how the American people helped defeat the first wave of woke ideology—and why conservatives must stay vigilant against a rebranded “Woke 2.” The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites: Visit https://historicsites.heritage.org/ to start your adventure today.

John Doyle: The Affordability Crisis Is Becoming a Political Crisis
Affordability has become a growing political problem for younger Americans, with rising everyday costs exposing a divide over how Republicans should respond to voters who feel increasingly squeezed despite improving economic fundamentals. The fight over cheap burritos reflects a much larger debate over consumer confidence, the post-COVID economy, and whether dismissing those concerns could fracture the coalition that elected Donald Trump. The rise of socialist candidates inside the Democratic Party is reshaping the midterm landscape, fueled by decentralized grassroots campaigns modeled on Zohran Mamdani’s political strategy. The stakes for Republicans, the possibility of a narrow fight for control of the House, and the emergence of a more disciplined “Woke 2.0” could define the next election cycle. A growing fascination with Richard Nixon among Gen Z and younger conservatives also reflects a broader reassessment of the modern American right, Nixon’s battles with the political establishment, and the overlooked role his coalition played in laying the groundwork for Ronald Reagan and the conservative movement that followed.
