President Donald Trump is making a direct appeal to House Republicans on Capitol Hill as they struggle to reach consensus on a major reconciliation bill central to his domestic agenda, including tax and immigration reforms.
The president's personal involvement underscores the deep divisions within the GOP and the high stakes of the legislative battle. Meanwhile, Trump claims to have brokered an agreement for direct talks between Russia and Ukraine, following calls with both nations' leaders. The day also features testimony from RFK Jr. on vaccine policy and government spending cuts.

Once again, Trump is doing what weak establishment Republicans can’t—bringing the party together and actually getting things done, both at home and on the world stage!

It’s wild how Trump showing up is supposed to miraculously solve the GOP’s mess when their whole agenda is just more tax cuts for the rich and attacks on immigrants. And now he’s playing diplomat with Russia and Ukraine? That’s honestly terrifying given his track record.
