While President Trump was successful in passing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, he did so by only a narrow margin, an emerging pattern representative of a divided Congress. For Co-Chairs of the Problem Solvers Caucus, Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), and Congressman Tom Suozzi (D-NY), the problem doesn't lie with President Trump's ideas, but rather with the lack of room for compromise.   The Congressmen discuss what they do and don't support about President Trump's agenda, how the DOJ's handling of the Epstein case might affect midterms, and what message Zohran Mamdani's mayoral campaign sends to the rest of the Democratic party.

The Senate returned to Capitol Hill on Monday with a new mission at the top of their agenda: uniting behind President Trump's "one big, beautiful bill." It took Congress weeks to narrowly agree on the legislation, passing it with a thin 215-214 vote. Many Senate Republicans have been vocal that they will not support the bill as it currently stands.

Will the modifications they make to the bill lead to it being sent back to the House? Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) breaks down the Senate's main concerns with the bill, the challenges that come with navigating the Senate's budget reconciliation rules, and why he remains confidently optimistic that the Senate will pass a bill that aligns with President Trump's priorities.

Since reports emerged that Chinese President Xi Jinping allegedly directed the People's Liberation Army to prepare for an invasion of Taiwan by 2027, the United States has ramped up efforts to ensure Taiwan has the resources and support it needs to defend itself. On Capitol Hill, Senators Pete Ricketts (R-NE) and Chris Coons (D-DE), both members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, are leading that charge with The PORCUPINE Act, a bill designed to streamline arms sales to Taiwan and bolster its defensive capabilities.

Since the start of his second term, President Trump has championed his vision for "One Big, Beautiful Bill" — a comprehensive piece of legislation that would include tax reforms, immigration enforcement, defense spending, while cutting what he describes as “waste, fraud and abuse” in social programs like Medicaid and SNAP. With just two days left before the initial deadline to get the bill to his desk, President Trump stepped up the pressure — paying Capitol Hill a visit on Tuesday morning to give House Republicans a "pep talk" in a last push for compromise before Memorial Day. Meanwhile, outside of Washington, Democrats in former President Biden's inner circle are continuing to reveal what they knew, or didn't know, about the former President's health and competency.

President Trump has rolled out 'reciprocal tariffs' on dozens of countries, leading to mixed reactions on Capitol Hill.
