Speaker Johnson Looks Ahead to Budget Negotiations with Senate

Capping a wild week in in Washington and on Wall Street, U.S. House Speaker MIKE JOHNSON joins us—live from his car as he honeycombs Texas on a fundraising tour—with the road ahead for House/Senate budget negotiations on the just-passed resolution supporting PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP’s 2017 tax cuts being made permanent as well as trimming the federal deficit. Asian expert GORDON CHANG offers his perspective on why America holds all the winning cards in the current tariff war with China and predicts “President Trump will never be intimidated by the Chinese government.” Congressman WARREN DAVIDSON zeroes-in on new U.S. plans to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and calls President Trump “getting Iran to agree on direct negotiations is a game changer.” And TONY PERKINS offers a Scripture-focused commentary on the rise of political extremism in the U.S.—from violence against Tesla to one survey suggesting the Left favors attempts on Donald Trump’s life; Tony says “the answer is not to erase political differences but to elevate our discourse”…plus much more on our latest edition of THIS WEEK ON CAPITOL HILL, releasing at 10AM Eastern Saturday on the Salem News Channel.
