Summary

After a bipartisan border bill was blocked on the Senate floor this week, lawmakers on Capitol Hill may be working through the weekend to pass a foreign aid package without border security. With questions as to whether this bill was doomed from the start, Congress is back to the same drawing board they faced in the fall of 2023. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram and Congressional Correspondent Aishah Hasnie discuss House Majority Leader Mike Johnson's political bind and ponder how he will handle putting a new bill on the House floor. The latest report from the Congressional Budget Office shows that the Social Security Old Age and Survivor's Trust Fund will run out of money by 2033. Last year, President Biden continuously alleged that Republicans wanted to cut entitlements. However, former President Donald Trump says that cutting Social Security is unnecessary because natural resources like oil and gas will cover the cost. President of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, Maya MacGuineas weighs in on the future of Social Security and why candidates are not telling the truth about what lies ahead for the program.
