Summary

President Trump's 'Big, Beautiful, Bill' became law last week, solidifying his package of tax cuts and spending policies. Now, Senate Republicans are considering a $9.4 billion rescissions package to allow Congress to cut back on previously allocated funds. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram breaks down what's included in the rescissions package and where it stands ahead of its July 18th deadline. Later, he discusses Dr. Kevin O'Connor's testimony about President Biden's mental fitness, and the Butler, PA attempted assassination of President Trump one year later. This week, President Trump signed an Executive Order that extended a key tariff deadline and sent letters to various countries informing them of new reciprocal tariff rates. Although the new August 1st deadline allows for more time for the U.S. to form deals with trading partners, it also sparks uncertainty and concern among small businesses across the country. Executive Vice President, Chief Police Officer, and Head of Strategic Advocacy for the U.S. Chaber of Commerce Neil Bradley discusses how the Chamber is addressing the tariffs and how they're advocating for small businesses.
