The main correspondent of the Fox News Congress, Chad Pergram, joined “Varney & Co.” Republic of Republicans’ efforts to strengthen support for legislation extending Trump 2017 tax reductions before the expiration of the main provisions.
Representative Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., Sandis on the president Donald Trump “Tax scam” during a press call from the tax day organized by the National Democratic Committee (DNC), accusing the Trump administration of prioritizing documents for “ultra-rich” families on American families.
Pressley said Trump, who is less than 100 days after his second non -consecutive quarter, has not yet held his campaign promise in 2024 to reduce costs for the works who work.
“How are you? Things are cheaper? Is the accommodation more affordable? Tell me how to let Elon Musk Put his legs in the cookie pot helps only one person, “said Pressley.” It was never a question of improving our quality of life or reducing the cost of our grocery store, our rent or our pursuit of higher education. It was always a question of obtaining power, always to mistreat power, to tear our civil rights harshly won and our economic freedom. “”
The progressive member of “Squad” added that Congress Republicans Are the “catalysts” of Trump and are “accomplices of the damage” that Trump creates for the American people while the Republican management works to extend the law on tax reductions and the jobs of Trump (TCJA), which expires at the end of the year.

Pressley has also criticized Trump’s pricing proposals and massive layoffs of the Ministry of Efficiency (DOGE) and federal expenses.
“Efficiency does not concern the reduction of budgets for securities,” said Pressley. “It is not a question of emptying the programs on which people rely. Real efficiency is to work better for people, protect their rights, strengthen essential services and guarantee that taxes go to public good and not to private profits.”

“Many of our owners of small businesses get an F —– And nothing that this guy has done or will not improve life for them,” said Kenyatta.
Shierholz warned that uncertainty surrounding Trump’s aggressive prices and “draconian budget cuts” could pass the United States in a recession, which, according to her, could cost millions of Americans and threaten reductions in social programs, such as Medicaid and Social Security.

The White House maintained that there will be no social security cup for the Americans during the Trump administration, despite the claims of the contrary democrats.
“President Trump is absolutely certain to protect social security benefits for American citizens and American seniors who contributed to this program,” the White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Tuesday. “He will always protect this program. He campaigned on it. He protected it during his first mandate. And he is back to continue to protect him.”
