Loudspeaker Johnson’s Bluff-call strategies reach its limit
By Sahil Kapur
Mike Johnson’s spokesman (relative) reached a violent end of Friday.
So far, Johnson succeeded through a narrow house directing the plan. The household was a budget frame in February, followed by the Bluepatch Bluepatch of the Senate passed in April, the strong reserves of the hard coverage of Johnson’s talks. This allowed the house to start writing the peculiarities of the legislation. This week, Johnson and his Leadership team received 11 home committees to accept fragments of the wider package.
Then the legislation was sent to the Budget Commission, assuming that some reviews would still be necessary, next week, Johnson’s Memorial Day weekend.
During the process, Johnson was often called on the sustainable branch of a hand-spending team, forcing to take votes and not assuming that they were not on the way Trump’s agenda. It’s time and a strategy that has been successful again.
But on Friday, four conservatives about the budget committee were sufficient, following the commitment to reach the measurement home. They immediately blurred the invoice for using budget gimmicks immediately to activate its benefits immediately and have been delaying his painful cuts. And indicated that the multitrilium dollar packet would turn on the national debt.
Now comes the time of truth. And The Slim House Republican majority, where it only has three votes to save aspects, Johnson’s prowess are on the verge of testing before ever.
Hard-For requires Medicaid cost cuts, cleaning financing and other programs as soon as possible. This means that political pain does not have the next presidential election on the weak legislators, maybe even before mid-2026, and put the swing neighborhoods.
But if Johnson does not meet their requests, are they willing to sink in full invoice? Or, Friday, Friday’s protest has been more symbolic to get the negotiable benefit? Surely, they will hear from Trump if they continue. (Before voting before the Friday Commission, Trump called GOP ‘Granddstanders’ Social truth.)
The speaker is also squeezed from another corner of Congress. At least, the Republicans of New York are in danger to lower the entire home floor bill, the leaders of the party removes state and local tax (salt) in force in $ 30,000. This demand has caused constitiation among other Republicans, most of which represent non-salt districts.
And even if Johnson wets the package through the attic, the Republicans of the Senate have already put the house to warn that legislation is not without significant changes to the upper chamber.
Next: The Budget Committee of the House will be considered at 10:00 on Sunday and to vote again on the invoice.
Pence said that Trump is a “bad idea” to use a Jet to Qatar as an air force
Bridget Bowman by
The most common president Mike Prescent said Donald Trump did not use Qatar President as the next air force.
“We must first remember who Qatar is. We have a military base there. I have members of our family that have expanded in the region,” Pence said.
“But Qatar has a long history of playing on both sides,” said Indian’s exclusive interview with his home. “They are held. The Qaeda protected. Qatar has actually protested on American campuses on the United States campuses.”
Farce has added the approval of the plane to the next air force “matching our safety, because of our intelligence needs. And it is my hope that the president recompile.”
Farce added that the “very real constitutions”, “Public authorities stand out the part of the constitution that does not accept the gifts of a foreign government.
“I think it’s just a bad idea, and my hope will think better,” Pence said.

E ✉️ Mailbag: Trump vs Congress (and Courts)
Thank you for all those who sent us! This week’s question comes from Polly Moore:
“How to establish Trump Defund programs for congresses, such as public television and national public radio?”
To do this, we went to the legal reporters of Gary Grumbach. Here is his answer:
Donald Trump trient tried to defend programs established by Congress, but the road block has almost hit each time. Here is the account – there are legal ways to defend the programs established by Congress.
It happens every year when the budget process is running, with the entrance on both sides of the corridor, in two Congress Chambers. Congress, according to the law, must participate in this process. When they are not, and when a program is thrown beyond the levels of his conferences, we are taking legal action.
And that legal action has been fast and rage. The Voice of America, a free radio European / radio freedom and the public emission corporation has been sued by the Trump Administration’s attempts to create and finance the conference endowment.
But it’s not a easy road. Today, the Appeal Court temporarily blocked the lower court order that would refund and European workers of American voice and radio workers will be launched.
