Sunday, Maria Bartiromo sounded like a shill for Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy when Congressman Matt Gaetz went on her show. It was disappointing because she has been one of the few bright spots at Fox Business in recent years.
Monday, she did something few journalists are ever willing to do. She acknowledged that her “thinking is evolving” after considering Gaetz’s arguments to continue the budget battle against the majority in his own party. In particular, she is now a proponent of single subject spending bills.
After Gaetz called her a shill on Twitter, Bartiromo didn’t lash out. Instead, she humbly acknowledged that Gaetz has “excellent points.”
You made excellent points. My thinking is evolving. I need to own it. I'm ok w that. I'm glad you came on.

Now, she’s promoting the very ideas she objected to the day before. It may be the most adult moment we’ve seen in corporate media in years.
When confronted with our argument on government spending, most smart and open-minded people will convert.
Welcome aboard, @MariaBartiromo.
Thank you for having me on your program. Tough questions and direct answers will lead us to the truth faster than sophistry.

Some are saying she’s reacting to the backlash against her from fans. Others say she’s trying to bring both sides of the debate together by playing the middle. I think it comes down to this: Nothing that Gaetz said during her interview or throughout this ugly process is inaccurate.
Business-as-usual has decimated our economy because legislators have either lacked the courage or personal incentive to call out the ludicrous way budgets are handled on Capitol Hill. What Gaetz and his allies are promoting is fiscal sanity. That’s it.
What Would You Do If Pharmacies Couldn’t Provide You With Crucial Medications or Antibiotics?
The medication supply chain from China and India is more fragile than ever since Covid. The US is not equipped to handle our pharmaceutical needs. We’ve already seen shortages with antibiotics and other medications in recent months and pharmaceutical challenges are becoming more frequent today.
Our partners at Jase Medical offer a simple solution for Americans to be prepared in case things go south. Their “Jase Case” gives Americans emergency antibiotics they can store away while their “Jase Daily” offers a wide array of prescription drugs to treat the ailments most common to Americans.
They do this through a process that embraces medical freedom. Their secure online form allows board-certified physicians to prescribe the needed drugs. They are then delivered directly to the customer from their pharmacy network. The physicians are available to answer treatment related questions.
