Rename it “Trump” or Wait for Funding? New Infrastructure Controversy 2/6/26

Trump’s ego is on full display. In order to release more infrastructure funding for the Gateway Tunnels between New York and New Jersey, Trump is demanding that two major transportation hubs be named after him. Politico reports that Trump indicated to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer that he’d release funds if both Washington-Dulles International Airport and Penn Station were renamed in honor of Trump. It’s the latest scheme that highlights the importance of Trump’s self aggrandizement instead of prioritizing what’s best for the country. Immigration attorney Michael Foote will stop by to talk about ICE tactics, Trump’s Immigration policies and how he’s seeing it all play out in real life. “This Week in Politics” includes Michael Shure and Mo Kelly breaking down the biggest stories of the week. We’ll wrap it up with Friday Fabulous Florida and our Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder who will steer us toward all the good things on screens large and small.
