House GOP Debt Limit Bill Wreaking Havoc on Our Economy

Welcome back to Topless Government. This show is a cross between Schoolhouse Rock and civics for the masses. I want to make this show relatable and fun for everyone who would like to know how YOUR government works. Remember knowledge is power! So let’s get started.


I am the host, Crystal Ellerbe. I live, breathe, eat, and sleep politics. I’ve done two tours of duty in the US Senate and one tour of duty in the US House. I had the privilege of working in state and local governments, corporate America and several lobbying firms in Washington, DC.


This is the SECOND SEASON OF TOPLESS GOVERNMENT and I’ll be discussing topics that have been top of mind to everyone, providing an insight on how YOUR government works.


As always I would be pleased if you would subscribe, rate, share, and review the show.

TOPLESS GOVERNMENT
SCHOOL HOUSE ROCKS MEETS CIVICS 101
Welcome to Topless Government. This show is a cross between Schoolhouse Rock and civics
for the masses. I want to make this show relatable and fun for everyone who would like to know
how YOUR government works. Originally, I was working on launching the show sometime in
July, however, on Friday when the news broke that the Supreme Court overturned Roe v.
Wade, I decided now I should start my show and begin conveying my knowledge of government
and politics so others can be better informed. Remember knowledge is power! So let’s get
started.
I am the host, Crystal Ellerbe. I live, breathe, eat, and sleep politics. I’ve done two tours of duty
in the US Senate and one tour of duty in the US House of Representatives. I’ve had the
privilege of working in state and local government, corporate America and several lobbying firms
here in Washington, DC. So tune in next week to Topless Government
