Summary

For weeks, the Biden White House and Republicans have been in talks over an infrastructure bill that they hope could get bipartisan support in Congress. While both parties have offered plans, they still remain divided on how big the plan should be and how it should be paid for. This isn't the first time Washington has tried to pass an infrastructure bill, the initiative had fell short during the Trump administration as well despite it being a priority. Earlier this week, host Lisa Brady spoke to former Acting Chief of Staff under President Trump, Mick Mulvaney about why it is so hard for Congress to pass an infrastructure proposal in any administration and the obstacles it faces. He also weighed in on America's current labor shortage, if enhanced unemployment benefits are really to blame and if it will impact the minimum wage debate. Mulvaney also discussed 'life after the Trump administration' and why he feels so many former staffers of the Trump White House are currently the victims of 'cancel culture' as they are struggling to find new jobs. The interview was too long and we could not include it all in our original segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear our complete unedited conversation with President Trump's former Acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney and hear more about his take on the what is wrong with Washington and the current state of our economy.
