Summary

As Congress returns from the holiday break, members come face-to-face with looming deadlines for funding decisions. With mounting pressure to continue aiding allies in Israel, Ukraine, and the Indo-Pacific while also prioritizing funding to secure our Southern border, House Republicans, Senate Democrats, and a Democratic White House must come together to reach an agreement — but will they be able to in time? On the Rundown, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) explains why securing the border should be a priority over funding allies overseas. He also discusses Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin being hospitalized in intensive care for five days without notifying the public, the potential of the Israel-Hamas war expanding in the Middle East region, and why the U.S. must keep an eye on adversaries like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea to ensure they don’t strengthen relations. 216,000 jobs were created in December, showing that the American labor market remains strong even as high interest rates persist. The latest data highlights that inflation and job growth are easing back toward pre-pandemic norms. Despite the good news, recent polls show that Americans continue to be dissatisfied with the state of the U.S. economy. Co-anchor of the Big Money Show on FOX Business, Brian Brenberg, joins the Rundown to break down the latest jobs report and why the President’s “Bidenomics” message isn’t resonating with Americans. Plus, commentary by Jason Rantz, Host of the Jason Rantz Show and author of “What’s Killing America.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
