The Mark Thompson Show House GOP Backs Trump Plan: Tax Cuts for Rich, Cuts for Poor & a Ballooning Deficit 5/19/25

01:56:59
Late Sunday night, Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill”
cleared an important House Committee. Conservatives that wanted deeper cuts to MedicAid got some changes made that led them toward advancing this massive tax cut and border security package. Speaker Mike Johnson isn’t saying what the changes include, calling them minor things.
It was a crazy music related weekend for Trump. He posted a video of himself lip syncing Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing” and he unleashed verbal attacks on Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift.
Michael Shure is in for Mark Thompson today.
We welcome iHeart Radio and TV political analyst Gary Dietrich to the show to talk politics.
