President Trump wants his 'big beautiful bill' passed by Congress before the Fourth of July holiday at the end of this week. Senators will enter a marathon 'vote-a-rama' to try get that done amid a GOP family feud. Republicans will use the time to make more changes to convince fellow Republicans on the fence about the bill, and Democrats try to outright kill the bill. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Chad Pergram, Senior Congressional Correspondent for FOX News Channel, who says historically when there is this much division over a spending bill, it doesn't pass but maybe with President Trump's influence this time, it will be different.

2 Firefighters Ambushed and Killed in Idaho; Senators to Start Votes on GOP's Big Budget Bill | NTD Good Morning
This Day in Legal History: 26th AmendmentOn June 30, 1971, the Twenty-sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified, lowering the voting age from 21 to 18. This change was largely driven by the political and social pressures of the Vietnam War era, when young Americans were being drafted to fight at 18 but could not vote. The rallying cry “old enough to fight, old enough to vote” captured the public's attention and galvanized a national movement. Though proposals to lower the voting age had circulated for decades, the urgency escalated in the 1960s and early 1970s as anti-war sentiment intensified.Congress passed the amendment with overwhelming support, and it achieved ratification at an unprecedented pace—taking just over three months, the fastest in U.S. history. This amendment added a new section to the Constitution, explicitly prohibiting federal and state governments from denying the right to vote to citizens aged 18 or older based on age. The swift ratification reflected broad bipartisan consensus and mounting public pressure to align civic duties and rights.The legal shift represented a significant expansion of suffrage in the United States, enfranchising millions of young people. It was also a notable example of constitutional change in response to contemporary social conditions and activism. States were subsequently required to amend their laws and election systems to accommodate the younger electorate, which has since played a key role in shaping political outcomes.Global mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the first half of 2025 grew in value, despite fewer overall deals, thanks to a surge in megadeals—particularly in Asia. Market uncertainties tied to President Trump's tariff initiatives, high interest rates, and geopolitical tension initially dampened expectations. However, confidence among bankers is rising, with many believing that the worst of the turbulence has passed. The U.S. equity markets, bolstered by record highs in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, have helped restore optimism for stronger M&A activity in the second half of the year.Preliminary data show $2.14 trillion in global deals from January through June 27, a 26% increase year-over-year, driven in part by Asia's doubling in activity to nearly $584 billion. North America saw a 17% rise in deal value to over $1 trillion. Large deals, such as Toyota's $33 billion supplier buyout and ADNOC's $18.7 billion acquisition of Santos, helped drive Asia-Pacific's share of global M&A to over 27%. Meanwhile, fewer total deals—down to 17,528 from over 20,000 last year—were offset by a 62% rise in transactions worth over $10 billion.Eased antitrust policies in the U.S. and a drop in market volatility contributed to a more favorable environment. Investment bankers are now more optimistic, citing a strong pipeline for the second half and renewed IPO activity. Institutional investors are re-engaging, further fueling expectations of continued M&A momentum.Global M&A powered by larger deals in first half, bankers show appetite for megadeals | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled to curtail the use of “universal” injunctions—orders that block government policies nationwide—marking a major legal victory for President Donald Trump. This decision limits the ability of individual judges to halt federal actions across the entire country, reinforcing that relief should generally only apply to the plaintiffs involved. The ruling, authored by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, aimed to rein in what some conservatives see as judicial overreach.However, this legal win may not help Trump implement one of his most controversial policies: an executive order seeking to deny birthright citizenship to U.S.-born children of non-citizen parents. Three lower court judges had already blocked the order, citing likely violations of the 14th Amendment. Although the Supreme Court narrowed the injunctions, it left room for opponents to pursue class-action suits or broader relief through state challenges.Legal scholars expect a wave of class-action cases and continued efforts by states and advocacy groups to block the order's implementation before the 30-day delay expires. States argue they need nationwide protection due to the administrative chaos such a policy would bring. Yet the Court declined to resolve whether states are entitled to broader injunctions, leaving that question to lower courts. If challengers fail to secure class-wide or state-level blocks, the executive order could go into effect unevenly across the country, creating legal confusion for families affected by it.Trump wins as Supreme Court curbs judges, but may yet lose on birthright citizenship | ReutersSenate Majority Leader John Thune is racing to meet President Donald Trump's July 4 deadline to pass a massive tax and spending bill, navigating deep divisions within the Republican Party. The $3.3 trillion legislation, which includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and $1.2 trillion in spending cuts, is facing resistance from at least eight GOP senators. Key disagreements center around healthcare funding, renewable energy subsidies, and the bill's fiscal impact, including a proposed $5 trillion debt ceiling increase.Senators like Thom Tillis and Rand Paul are opposing the bill, citing concerns over Medicaid cuts and fiscal irresponsibility. Tillis, recently freed from political pressure after announcing he won't seek reelection, is expected to vote no. With a slim margin for passage, Thune can afford to lose only three Republican votes, counting on Vice President JD Vance to break a tie.Market reactions have been mixed; renewable energy stocks dropped due to proposed cuts to wind and solar tax incentives. Meanwhile, moderates are pushing to preserve Medicaid benefits and clean energy credits, warning of political fallout if millions lose health coverage. Senators like Ron Johnson are pushing for deeper Medicaid cuts to reduce the bill's overall cost.Trump has not engaged in policy details but is pressuring lawmakers to deliver the bill on time, using social media to criticize dissenters. The Senate is set for a long amendment session, with the House potentially voting on the final version by Wednesday. Whether Thune can secure the needed votes remains uncertain as the July 4 deadline approaches.Trump Tax Bill Hits Senate With GOP Torn by Competing DemandsIn the aftermath of devastating wildfires in Los Angeles earlier this year, Wall Street firms are rushing to capitalize on a wave of lawsuits targeting utilities like Edison International and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. These fires, among the worst in U.S. history, destroyed over 12,000 structures and have spurred litigation that could result in tens of billions of dollars in damages. With law firms often operating on contingency fees and facing steep costs, many are turning to third-party litigation financing—a lightly regulated, fast-growing industry now valued at $16 billion in the U.S.Major financial players including Jefferies and Oppenheimer are brokering deals to provide multimillion-dollar loans to lawyers handling these complex cases. These loans, often subject to non-disclosure agreements, carry interest rates above 20% and are repaid only when the law firms recover damages. In addition to funding legal efforts, some investors are purchasing subrogation claims from insurers, betting on favorable court outcomes.California's legal doctrine of inverse condemnation makes it easier for plaintiffs to hold utilities liable without proving negligence, further enticing investors. While some attorneys refuse outside funding to preserve client interests, others argue that financing is essential for firms lacking deep capital reserves. Critics, including regulators and advocacy groups, are raising concerns about the opacity of the funding industry and the potential for conflicts of interest.Wall Street Backs Los Angeles Wildfire Lawsuits, Chasing Billions This is a public episode.

Joyce Vance and George Conway join The Weekend to examine this troubling pattern and explore what—and who—is missing from the national conversation. Later, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear weighs in on how proposed Medicaid cuts in the GOP's "Big Beautiful Bill," backed by President Trump, could affect hospitals across his state.

George Conway and JVL break down a stunning whistleblower complaint accusing Deputy AG nominee Emil Bove of telling colleagues the DOJ should ignore court orders and deport migrants anyway. They explore the Supreme Court's unexplained decision enabling deportation to dangerous countries, the Kafkaesque Abrego Garcia case, and the GOP's broader assault on Harvard. It's a legal and political breakdown—Conway says bluntly: “The criminals are in charge.”
President Donald Trump firmly believes the GOP's megabill can pass through Congress and land on his desk by July 4. But with just one week to go before that self-imposed deadline, the sweeping legislation faces a congressional obstacle course, with Republicans across Capitol Hill fighting over facets from Medicaid cuts to government spending to federal land sales. POLITICO Congress reporter Jordain Carney joins Playbook contributing author Adam Wren to break down everything the state of play and where things go from here.

A double-barreled political exposé uncovers deep fractures inside both parties—starting with explosive allegations that Democrat lawmakers leaked classified intel on U.S. strikes against Iran, potentially endangering American lives and aiding Tehran. The first segment accuses Democrats of aligning with Iran-backed street movements, promoting antisemitism, and undermining national security for political gain. Meanwhile, the second segment turns fire on Republican leadership, targeting Senators John Thune and Lindsey Graham for pushing a spending bill that includes illegal funding for Medicaid and food stamps for undocumented immigrants—allegedly at the behest of Bush-era donors. The host warns of a treasonous alliance between Democrats and Iran, a GOP still controlled by globalist interests, and a political class out of touch with working Americans. The message: the enemy is both outside—and within.

The message: the enemy is both outside—and within. Talking about what Democrats are saying in these classified briefings behind closed doors. One of the Democrats was in a confidential briefing in the SCIF today and said to general Cain, the operation that you ran will go down in the annals of American history as the greatest military operation ever conducted. A Democrat said that today. What's sick is that they then go on TV and do everything possible politically to undermine the administration. This is not what they believe. This is just pure political grotesque behavior. It infuriates me. Look, I'm just gonna call like it is. Maybe I'm breaking senate protocol here. But look. I can't stand these guys that say something in private, and they go out publicly and contradict it only to score cheap political points, which weakens this country and undermines our military. What is Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel saying? It's the truth. This is historic. This is amazing. This completely rewrites the map of The Middle East. And look, folks, not by a little bit either. Hold on. This is not giving up by when that happens. Here you go. He admits you've got to admire Trump. Yeah. No president in the last forty five years had the balls to do what Trump just did. And we shouldn't lose sight of that. I mean, it's just truly historic. Everything that's been done over forty years by the Ayatollah has been blown up. The nuclear program costing $100,000,000,000 lost in Hezbella lost in Hamas hundreds of billions of dollars obliterated. They have a brain drain in Iran. They have a weakening economy. Major loss. I don't agree with the president of The United States. Do not. On many, many issues. But you have to admire that when The United States says all, options are on the table, he just proved all options on the table. And China and Russia and even North Korea have to step back because that has a level of deterrence so the blast radius of this goes much farther. Now the Yeah. It was a big deal. It was amazing. But they they can't admit that. I wanna play this for you. It's today's epic rant. It's general John Raising Cade, whoever saw this whole thing. And he talks about how far back the planning for this went. Take a listen. Today's epic rant. First, let me set the stage for you. There's an organization in The US called the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, DTRA. DTRA does a lot of things for our nation, but DTRA is the world's leading expert on deeply buried underground targets. In 02/2009, a defense threat reduction agency officer was brought into a vault at an undisclosed location and briefed on something going on in Iran. For security purposes, I'm not gonna share his name. He was shown some photos and some highly classified intelligence of what looked like a major construction project in the mountains of Iran. He was tasked to study this facility, work with the intelligence community to understand it, and he was soon joined by an additional teammate. For more than fifteen years, this officer and his teammate lived and breathed this single target for dough, a critical element of I ...

Chris Cuomo argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is killing the Democratic Party by pushing to impeach Trump over his Iran bombing that actually led to a ceasefire. He contends that Democrats are making the same mistake as MAGA by embracing extremism, with AOC consistently taking the losing side of every "80-20" issue: from defunding police to being too comfortable with pro-Hamas sentiment, and now trying to impeach a president for protecting Americans from extreme Islamism. Cuomo warns that the real threat facing America isn't just from foreign terrorists but from homegrown extremists of all ideologies—from the healthcare CEO killer to embassy attackers—who've been radicalized to believe violence advances their political agenda. He argues Democrats need to reject AOC's performative politics and focus on the economic issues that matter to working people, like Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," not chase impossible impeachments that make them look weak on national security.Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses how the GOP budget bill's debt implications could affect American households and investment strategies.

It took a day to properly process the shock and do the necessary research, but our amazing host, Mike Slater, is officially ready to talk about Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani's shocking victory in the New York City Democratic Mayoral Primary and how the USA's largest population center is THIS close to basically having a full-blown Ugandan communist running the show. It's becoming a total circus and ALL Americans need to know about it.Following the opener, Slater talks to U.S. Congressman Jimmy Patronis (R-FL-01) about his recently introduced legislation to expose the true nature of the coverups of former President Joe Biden's cognitive decline while in office!

In a new book, Far from Home, Murkowski delves into her journey navigating hyper-partisan politics -- from the Tea Party to the Trump era.

This episode kicks off lightheartedly with a humorous dive into how Americans rack up thousands of minor injuries over a lifetime—scrapes, cuts, and all—with a poll revealing Band-Aid habits, parental duties, and even “tough guy” reluctance to wear floral-patterned first aid. But the tone shifts fast as Tara tears into a Senate budget bill packed with wasteful spending and shocking provisions. From restoring subsidies that benefit China's green tech, to allowing taxpayer-funded sex changes and gutting Medicaid restrictions for illegals, she slams the GOP's Lindsey Graham for caving on key conservative issues. A mix of everyday relatability and explosive political commentary, this show exposes how little injuries compare to the self-inflicted wounds of Washington's broken leadership.
In this explosive episode, Tara dives into the Senate parliamentarian's quiet removal of a GOP-backed provision blocking welfare for illegal immigrants—sparking outrage over unelected liberal influence in lawmaking. She then exposes the fallout from socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani's shocking NYC primary win, triggering a luxury real estate exodus and fears of a Wall Street retreat. The episode closes with a fiery critique of U.S. intelligence agencies, highlighting contradictory claims over Iran's nuclear program and accusing deep state actors of manipulating national security narratives. Packed with urgency, skepticism, and populist fire, this is a sweeping indictment of the current political and media establishment.
The Democratic Party faces an identity crisis as Zoran Mamdani, an openly socialist and self-described communist, wins the Democratic primary for New York City mayor. GOP strategist Zach Roday and others react to what many are calling the most radical candidate in U.S. mayoral history. The broadcast dives into Mamdani's extreme positions—defunding the NYPD, abolishing prisons, aligning NYC with international law, and even promising to arrest Israeli PM Netanyahu. As Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer hesitate to endorse him, the DNC congratulates him, sparking outrage. The episode also calls out AOC's misleading personal narrative and explores growing fears of a full Marxist pivot within the Democratic Party.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump announced a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, ending a 12-day war. What will it be about this agreement to ensure they don't violate it? Iran should face unconditional surrender due to its weakened military and lack of support from allies like China, Russia, or Arab nations. Trump's decisive military actions prevented Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which no other president, including Clinton, Obama, or Biden, was willing or able to accomplish. Without Trump's intervention, Iran would have become a nuclear power, potentially arming groups like the Houthis and enabling terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S. to acquire dirty bombs. Also, Trump's actions on Iran have ensured peace for a period. But there's a group of individuals—Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, and others—who are undermining Trump and aligning with radical left ideologies, including anti-Israel sentiments. These figures, supported by liberal media, aim to sabotage Trump's movement and the next election. Later, Marc Thiessen calls in to discuss a Reagan Institute poll showing that MAGA Republicans strongly support U.S. global leadership, rejecting isolationism. The poll indicates 90% of MAGA voters prioritize preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, aligning with Trump's decision to join Israel's strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. The claims of a splintering MAGA base over Trump's Iran policy are exaggerated, as isolationist critics represent a small minority within the GOP. Finally, Lee Smith calls in and discusses how Trump's political opponents, particularly within the Democratic Party and aligned institutions, have pursued strategies aimed at humbling America to counter his influence. These efforts stem from a belief that Trump's "Make America Great Again" rhetoric and policies threaten their vision of a globalized, progressive world order. Learn more about your ad choices.
