The Republican Congress has quickly remade fiscal policy, with substantially more success than in Trump's first term. How did they achieve so much more without compromise? How much will their routes around the filibuster matter for the decline of congressional appropriations? And are we setting up for a huge new step in presidential spending power: pocket rescissions? Molly Reynolds of the Brookings Institution is the expert on how Congress bends the rules of the filibuster to make use of partisan majorities. We discuss how much Congress is ceding power to the President and making tax and spending decisions even more partisan.

Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) discusses what he is hearing about the potential release of the Epstein files, and voices his concerns over a possible second rescissions package happening later this year and whether or not he will allow the government to shutdown when Congress works on their budget. Rep. Auchincloss spoke with Joe Mathieu and Tyler Kendall.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a groundbreaking legislative move, Congress has passed a $9.4 billion rescission package—the first since 1999—cutting funds to NPR, foreign aid programs, and climate initiatives. Championed by Senate Republicans and backed by Donald Trump, the bill reclaims unspent COVID and infrastructure funds while sending a strong message about spending restraint and America First values. While critics call the cuts symbolic, conservative lawmakers view this as the start of a broader rollback of what they consider wasteful government spending.

Fox News Radio's Ryan Schmelz joins Marc Cox to break down the latest on the escalating Israel Iran conflict, including Iran's drone launches and Israel's Rising Lion operation. They also discuss Missouri's state of emergency, upcoming protests, and a traffic update. The segment dives into the newly passed $9.4 billion rescission bill, which includes cuts to USAID, State Department programs, and PBS. Ryan explains the political dynamics in the House, the role of the Freedom Caucus, and the distinction between mandatory and discretionary spending.

In a fiery political commentary, the speaker unpacks President Trump's $9.4 billion rescission bill—a strategic test vote targeting controversial federal programs like USAID, NPR, and PBS. The segment alleges that USAID has funneled billions to enemies like the Taliban and Al Qaeda, while Trump's efforts aim to halt these flows and expose Congressional resistance. The discussion pivots to the broader implications of U.S. foreign policy, suggesting diplomatic deals with hostile actors were necessary to preserve the petrodollar. A deeper dive into recent ICE raids in Los Angeles reveals claims of a crackdown on cartel-linked money laundering operations—described not as immigration enforcement but as a direct hit on Democrat-cartel collusion. The piece concludes by accusing Democratic leaders of protecting trafficking networks disguised as immigrant support, signaling an escalating political and legal battle over national security and immigration.

Guest Paul Winfree, President EPIC, joins to discuss House passing the latest rescission bill cutting $9B in spending. Is it just the beginning, and will it pass the Senate?
