Ryan Schmelz: 共和党试图永久削减政府开支，但“大而美丽的法案”受到批评，因为它未能充分削减开支。如果国会不采取行动，削减的资金将会恢复。众议院的标准太低，没有充分考虑削减开支的背景。 President Trump: 我对“大而美丽的法案”既有满意之处也有不满之处，这是一个需要谈判的过程。 Liz Elkind: 白宫可以通过简单多数通过撤回方案来要求削减开支，这是一个重要的工具。撤回方案涵盖USAID、NPR和PBS等项目。参议院可能不会像众议院那样支持削减开支，因为参议院中蓝州共和党人较少，他们可能反对削减某些项目。债务上限问题仍然存在，可能会导致信用违约。特朗普的预算要求未能满足国防鹰派的期望。 Ron Johnson: 众议院的“大而美丽的法案”将会增加赤字，我们的首要目标应该是减少赤字支出，而不是增加它。现在不是减税的时候，特别是那些不能刺激增长的减税措施。奥巴马医改的医疗补助扩张会让你面临风险，残疾儿童的医疗补助也会面临风险。我们不应该抵押我们孩子的未来，我连续三个竞选活动都做出了这个承诺。除非我们把它分成两个法案，否则在7月4日之前完成这项工作过于乐观。

Additionally, the White House is preparing to send a rescissions package to Congress — an initiative designed to codify certain spending cuts identified by DOGE. FOX News Digital Politics Reporter Elizabeth Elkind breaks down what all of this means and what's to come.

Then, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) discusses his criticisms of the 'one big, beautiful bill' and his plans to investigate the last administration’s attempt to cover up the declining mental fitness of former President Biden.
