Hi, I'm Molly JongFast, and this is Fast Politics, where we discussed the top political headlines with some of today's best minds.

And President Trump warned Judge Alito that he could end up like Ruth Bader Ginsburg and die on the bench if he doesn't

do what's right for the country. Wow. Donald Trump having a day. We have such a great show for you

today. To the contrary zone, Charlie Sykes stops by to talk about J.D. Bance's presidential

aspiration, just slowly disappearing. Then we'll talk to

Congressman Jared Moskowitz about former A.G. Bondi, refusing to show up to congressional hearings.

But first, the news. Somali, one of the things that usually fuels the economy in this time of year

and fuels summer vacations,

Spigs purchases, is tax refunds. You know, it's not going so well because they've defunded the IRS,

tax refunds. Yeah. Okay, so here's what's going on. Donald Trump, I think he had one good idea,

and that was no tax on tip. The reason it's a good idea is because a lot of

people who make less money tend to be reliant on tips. And so it's a good way, it's a good

progressive taxation. Of course, or at least it seems, again, I don't want to give Donald Trump

too much credit because who knows, like if hedge fund

managers are saying that their compensation is tips. Yeah, that's what the giveaway was, is that

Goldman Sachs lobbied for this. Right. Exactly. So this will all come out in the wash as to whether or not

this was brilliant, progressive legislation or Donald Trump doing crazy

cronyism. So let's stay tuned on what this is. But I think the point of it is that they have

defunded the IRS and so it's much slower to get stuff back from them and everything's taking a lot longer.

And a lot of people thought that this one big, beautiful bill would mean that they would get a lot more money back.
