The big Republican bill to explode the deficit and cut healthcare has passed Congress and been signed by President Trump. But it's not just bad in the obvious ways - it's also terrible on energy policy. PPI's Director of Energy and Climate Policy Elan Sykes joins the podcast to discuss how Trump's bill will lead to more expensive and more polluting energy.

On Thursday, the House of Representatives passed President Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill” by a narrow margin of 216 to 214. Despite early concerns among Republicans and unified opposition from House Democrats, the bill was able to pass by the July 4th deadline, with Speaker Mike Johnson expressing optimism over the momentum of a unified GOP. Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to discuss public reaction to the bill and its potential role as a midterm talking point. Later, she weighs in on a new SCOTUS case to be heard on trans athletes, the Russian-Ukraine conflict, and polling on American pride. As the country celebrates America's independence with parades, parties, and cookouts, we also mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II and the 250th birthday of the US Navy and Marine Corps. Host of America's Funniest Home Videos and Dancing With the Stars, Alfonso Ribeiro, joins to discuss his involvement with "A Capitol Fourth," one of the largest fireworks displays in the nation.

Ukraine says Russia carried out its biggest drone and missile attack on the capital yet, just two days after the US announced it was suspending the supply of some critical weapons to Kyiv, and hours after Presidents Trump and Putin spoke on the phone. We report from Kyiv. Also in the programme: President Trump's huge tax and spending bill squeaks through Congress – but will it be a vote-winner or loser at next year's midterm elections? We hear from a Republican pollster; and a security contractor for the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation tells the BBC they were instructed to shoot first and ask questions later.(IMAGE: Smoke is seen from outskirts of the city, after a Russian drone and missile strike, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Kyiv, Ukraine July 4, 2025 / CREDIT: Alina Smutko / Reuters)

The 3WHH bartenders take time away from the news headlines and court cases to take up some aspects of patriotism (but also with a tutorial for John about the mellotron!).  We start with an origin story of sorts for John himself, as he is an immigrant to the U.S., and as such provides a good reminder of how immigration ought to be understood and practiced. From there, Lucretia meditates on the curious recent survey results showing that love of country among Democrats has precipitously declined over the last decade or so. We agree that our dessicated education system has a lot to do with this—did we really think the Howard-Zinnification of our history would be without consequences?—but we need to wonder why Republicans seem to be immune to these calumnies against our great country. Lucretia fingers the Progressives, and that leads to the final gonzo segment for the holiday, where Steve settles scores from slanders against him when he missed an episode three weeks ago, and makes the evidently futile attempt to school John about the mellotron and the inherent greatness of the brief shining moment of progressive rock—"rock and roll that went to college," as Jody Bottum calls it—in the early 1970s, which, come to think of it, is when the Clean Air Act was first enacted.So come for the patriotism (and a sharp and unexpected argument about Daniel Bell), and stay for the awesome music!

Democrats are trying to get it together ahead of what should be a pretty good election cycle for them here in Texas. But the top of their ticket already includes the very real possibility of a US Senate nominee who lost badly to one of the most hated Republicans in America just 9 months ago. What are they even doing? Join the conversation with Scott Braddock, editor of The Quorum Report, and Houston Chronicle political writer Jeremy Wallace.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Independence Day. It's coming up. And I must say that I think differently about this one, more than normal.On the heels of watching an election get stolen and Donald Trump BBQ'd by the Leftists in the court, I treasure my freedom.Do Leftist really think about freedom or even care. Consider their plight.They speak freely of their hatred of President Trump, MAGA, conservatives, Republicans, God, religion, the police, the military, and so on.But is this really their views? I think they are slaves to their conventions. Wholly afraid to truly speak their minds. BTW, so are many of us. I'm not, but I know many who are.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

President Trump is set to sign his "big, beautiful bill" on Friday after the House passed the legislation in a 218-214 vote, with two Republicans joining Democrats to oppose it. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries stalled the final passage Thursday in a record-setting speech that lasted nearly nine hours. CBS News' Robert Costa joins "CBS Mornings" to break down what's in the legislation. An effort by some states to protect children from gun violence has hit roadblocks. The new laws require gun owners to lock up their firearms at home or face prosecution. However, implementing the law has presented its own set of challenges. CBS News' Scott MacFarlane reports. Millions will gather across the U.S. for the dazzling sights of fireworks to mark the Fourth of July, but the tradition relies almost exclusively on China. The Asian country makes nearly all of the fireworks that are used in the U.S. It's causing problems for fireworks retailers, many of them small businesses, because of the uncertainty of President Trump's tariffs. CBS News' Ian Lee reports. Renowned underwater archaeologist James Delgado joins "CBS Mornings" to discuss his new book "The Great Museum of the Sea" and reflect on his decades-long search for historic shipwrecks, including the Clotilda.

Sanctuary cities are now targeted because we do NOT keep track of the illegal immigrants. As a result the illegal citizens get to vote simply because they are residents. This is the key problem! They are not American citizens yet they are voting! This is a master stroke in deception by the deep state Democrat regime. The DEMS cannot boast about merit or successful performance. As a result they must try to control the immigrant vote. (a/k/a; 'Vote the way I tell you and I will give you more free things!'). What a way to build a political party. Sounds like Communism to me! Ironically, immigrants are not dumb. They see the deceptions upon them from the luring, demonic, and flirtatious Democrats. As a result track the number of Democrats and legal immigrants who are becoming Republicans! Stunning.Sanctuary Cities Failed Illegal Immigrants!

On this Fourth of July edition of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold delivers a thorough, unflinching look at Trump's massive “Big Beautiful Bill,” examining the last-minute concessions and hidden provisions that sparked frustration across the conservative base. Jon breaks down everything from the $85 million relocation of the Space Shuttle Discovery to new taxes on gamblers, commercial space launches, and Alaskan whaling expenses. He questions why Republican leadership weakened measures against illegal immigration and stripped out promised long-term defunding of Planned Parenthood. Jon also highlights Trump's surprising proposal letting farmers vouch for long-time undocumented workers, sparking a debate over priorities and enforcement. The show touches on the President's quiet call with Putin, Russia's formal recognition of the Taliban, and plans for a UFC fight on the White House lawn to kick off America's 250th birthday celebrations. Capping off the episode, Jon reflects on how patriotism and skepticism can coexist, reminding listeners it's possible to support Trump's mission while demanding accountability from Congress.

Jen Psaki looks back at how Democrats made Republicans pay for their efforts to kill Obamacare by making that a central focus of House races that ultimately flipped the House to Democratic control. Donald Trump's budget bill is so wildly unpopular that Democratic candidates are already preparing to run against the bill and anyone who supported it. Republicans, in the meantime, are busy trying to distract Americans from what they're doing.

The House of Representatives began debate on President Donald Trump's sweeping spending bill following a late-night shift as key Republican holdouts threw their support behind the measure. Representative Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) stepped out of an hours long speech from Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) to fill CNBC's audience in on the broader implications of the legislation. Microsoft will lay off about 9,000 employees, just under 4% of its global workforce. CNBC's Steve Kovach and fellow tech journalist Michal Lev-Ram discussed the role of AI in the cuts and the future of tech's labor force.

After a marathon session on Wednesday night, Republican lawmakers in the U.S. House of Representatives are poised to pass a massive tax and spending bill which President Trump has said he wants to sign on July 4. On Tuesday, the U.S. Senate passed their version of the bill after a tie-breaking vote from Vice President JD Vance. The bill passed by the Senate is expected to add $3.3 trillion to the federal deficit, according to the Congressional Budget Office, while making steep cuts to Medicaid benefits to help pay for trillions of dollars in tax cuts.    In Oregon, roughly 1 in 3 residents get their insurance through Medicaid. According to Oregon Health Authority’s Medicaid director Emma Sandoe, an estimated  100,000 to 200,000 Oregonians could lose their Medicaid benefits under the bill. On Wednesday, Gov. Tina Kotek and former Gov. John Kitzhaber, the architect of Oregon’s state Medicaid program, urged U.S. Rep. Cliff Bentz of Oregon’s 2nd Congressional District to vote against the bill. Bentz is the sole Republican member of Oregon’s Congressional delegation and roughly 40% of the residents in his district are enrolled in the Oregon Health Plan. Democratic U.S. Rep. Maxine Dexter of Oregon’s 3rd Congressional District is a pulmonary and critical care physician by training who testified against the bill on Capitol Hill and introduced amendments to it which were blocked by Republicans. She joins us to talk about the impacts of the Medicaid cuts for Oregonians and the new work and recertification requirements for Medicaid enrollees. “Think Out Loud” also made multiple attempts to request Rep. Bentz to participate in this conversation.

In these two segments, the hosts expose a sweeping pattern of institutional corruption and media complicity. First, they unpack bombshell revelations confirming the Russia collusion narrative was a deliberate hoax orchestrated by top Obama-era intelligence officials—John Brennan, James Comey, and James Clapper—who handpicked analysts, suppressed dissent within the CIA, and selectively leaked discredited claims from the Clinton campaign to engineer a societal delusion that crippled the Trump presidency. Next, they detail how left-wing judges are defying Supreme Court precedent to block Trump's border enforcement, effectively ordering open borders to restore Democrat-aligned human trafficking networks and set up a “dictatorship” narrative if Trump defies their rulings. Newsbusters' Curtis Houck joins to discuss the mainstream media's ongoing efforts to cover for radical socialist candidates while losing public trust, as Trump's popularity surges past Ronald Reagan's among Republicans. Together, these stories illustrate a constitutional crisis and the media's collapse as Americans increasingly reject manufactured narratives.

In this broadcast, the host breaks down a series of dramatic developments: a federal judge—appointed by Barack Obama—issues a nationwide injunction to halt Donald Trump's border enforcement, effectively re-opening the border to illegal crossings and potential criminal networks. Despite the Supreme Court's recent ruling against such sweeping injunctions, lower court judges are defying precedent, creating what the host calls a constitutional crisis designed to provoke Trump into defying orders so the media can brand him a dictator. The conversation also explores the media's surface-level fascination with New York City's self-described democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (“Comrade Mamdani”) while ignoring his radical Marxist views. Finally, Newsbusters managing editor Curtis Houck joins to discuss how the mainstream media's declining credibility and obsession with attacking Trump have fueled record popularity for the former president, eclipsing even Ronald Reagan among Republican voters.

The Senate passed President Donald Trump's spending bill on Tuesday after Vice President JD Vance arrived to break a 50-50 tie. The bill is now headed back to the House where Republican Speaker Mike Johnson can only afford to lose three members and still pass the bill by a party line vote. To learn more about what this means for Republicans' big beautiful bill and the looming July Fourth deadline, we spoke with Nicholas Wu, a congressional reporter for Politico.And in headlines: President Trump tours "Alligator Alcatraz," Florida's new migrant detention center, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell says Trump's tariff wars pretty much stopped it from cutting interest rates, and the Trump-Musk feud is reignited.Show Notes:Check out Nicholas's work – www.politico.com/staff/nicholas-wuCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Congressman Burgess Owens joins to discuss the big, beautiful bill making its way through Congress, which encompasses various aspects of President Trump's agenda, including tax cuts and immigration enforcement. One of the significant provisions is the school choice tax credit, aimed at empowering parents and enhancing educational options for their children. Congressman Owens passionately advocates for middle-class families, emphasizing the importance of choice and accountability in education. He also addresses the recent Supreme Court ruling on parental rights in education, highlighting the growing frustration among parents regarding public school curricula. Mike Howell, President of the Oversight Project, discusses the recent revelations from a trove of documents obtained through a FOIA request. Howell sheds light on potential conflicts within the DOJ regarding Hunter Biden's legal issues and the alleged insider dealings of the Biden administration. Finally, AMAC spokesman and a Republican candidate for governor of Maine Bobby Charles joins for his weekly segment and shares his insights on recent Supreme Court decisions affecting immigration policies, the challenges of border security, and his vision for revitalizing the state.

We are hearing endless excuses as to why the signature budget bill is not achieving its stated goals. The most prevalent excuse is that lawmakers don't have the votes for conservative legislation. Well, if that is true, it's because of people like Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), who pushed for Green New Deal subsidies in the bill. So why is there no unified effort to remove people like her who will stand for re-election next year? We're joined by our first primary challenger of the year, former Iowa state Senator Jim Carlin, who is running for U.S. Senate. He has been part of the grassroots effort to fight the Green New Deal land-grabs in Iowa and to elect better members to the legislature. He shows how Joni Ernst is the very embodiment of what everyone hates about corporatist Republicans and duplicitous campaign promises dying on the altar of special-interest politics. We cover his vision for Iowa landowners, medical freedom, and fixing the military-industrial complex. We will find out who truly believes in defeating RINOs and who is just in this business to make money.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
