Ben Ferguson: 众议院以微弱优势通过了4.5万亿美元的减税法案，这是预算和解过程的第一步。这一结果来之不易，总统特朗普亲自参与了投票游说工作。此外，德克萨斯州一名牧场主被怀疑是贩毒集团的简易爆炸装置炸死，突显了边境地区日益严重的暴力问题。司法部正在对缅因州、加利福尼亚州和明尼苏达州施压，要求其遵守联邦法律，禁止男孩参加女孩的体育比赛。 Ted Cruz: 众议院通过的预算决议是实现对美国人民承诺的第一步，包括加强边境安全、重建军队、降低能源成本和延长减税政策。预算和解程序允许绕过参议院的阻挠议事，使预算相关法案能够以简单多数通过。众议院和参议院在预算和解策略上存在分歧，众议院倾向于通过一项综合性法案，而参议院则倾向于分阶段进行。尽管存在挑战，但我相信我们可以完成这项工作，确保边境安全，重建军队，释放美国能源，并延长减税政策。 关于边境问题，墨西哥贩毒集团的行为已经升级为恐怖主义活动，他们使用简易爆炸装置袭击平民。政府将采取行动打击贩毒集团，减少非法越境，并直接针对他们的资金来源。 关于男女体育项目，司法部明确表示，将对违反联邦法律的州采取法律行动，并可能切断联邦资金。民主党继续坚持激进立场，这与民意背道而驰。
