Less than three weeks into President Donald 235 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 2: Trump's second term, Congress is coming up on a deadline 236 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: next month to pass a budget and push through some 237 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: of the president's biggest priorities, but Republicans are now split 238 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 2: on whether to do it in one bill or two. 239 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: Republican Congressman Bryan Byron Donald says time is running out. 240 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 5: Knowing President Trump. What he wants to see is action 241 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 5: and us to deliver, coming back to getting okay on 242 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 5: every single step. I don't think that is what he's 243 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 5: looking for. 244 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: That was Congressman Brian Donald speaking on Bloomberg's Balance of 245 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 2: Power this morning. We're joined by Bloomberg News Senior editor 246 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 2: Bill Ferries and Bill it might feel like we're getting 247 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 2: into the weeds a little bit when it comes to 248 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: the process of getting a budget done on Capitol Hill, 249 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 2: but the weeds matter. We see the President trum is 250 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: going to be calling Republican lawmakers to the White House 251 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: today to talk strategy. 252 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 6: Good morning, Good morning, that's right. I mean you mentioned 253 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 6: that the deadline is coming up, and I think patience 254 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 6: is running out. The Senate and the House have been 255 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,559 Speaker 6: at odds, even though they're both controlled by Republicans, as 256 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 6: you know, but they've been at odds over how to 257 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 6: achieve some of President Trump's budgetarian policy goals here and 258 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 6: it looks like that is breaking more out into the 259 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 6: open today and we'll have to see if President Trump 260 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 6: can help make a decision. But essentially the Senate is 261 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 6: trying to strip things back a little bit and pass 262 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 6: some quick budget quicker budgetary legislation that would give the 263 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 6: president potentially about one hundred and fifty billion dollars in 264 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 6: new spending over four years for border security and immigration, 265 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 6: obviously one of his priorities. His borders are. Tom Homan 266 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 6: has said he needs additional financial resources soon if he's 267 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 6: going to keep up the pace of these deportation efforts. 268 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 6: And that's conflicting with the House's plan, Mike Johnson's plan 269 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 6: to basically have the budget and a whole bunch of 270 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 6: other issues, including tax cuts, all thrown into one big bill. 271 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 6: He's got a narrow majority, he's having a hard time 272 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 6: getting unity on that effort. 273 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: So what's the concern then on the House side about 274 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: splitting up the two issues. Can't they get them both 275 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 2: done in time? 276 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 6: Well, you know, President Trump has said a few times 277 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 6: that he would prefer one big bill. I think there's 278 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 6: some concern if you if you start to break this 279 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 6: stuff up, that you're going to have momentum building against 280 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 6: some aspects of it. To Mike Johnson's view is that 281 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 6: the more you can put in one package, the harder 282 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 6: it is for any one faction in his caucus to 283 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 6: to vote against it and deep six the whole, the 284 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 6: whole plan. So if he can keep it all together 285 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 6: for one up or down vote to him, that's that's 286 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 6: an easier solution than having multiple votes that might end 287 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 6: up with some Republicans either not voting in support or 288 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 6: voting against the proposal. 289 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: Apart from the budget debate going on bill, there's still 290 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: a lot of talk in Washington, I'm sure about President 291 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 2: Trump's proposal for the US to essentially take over Gaza 292 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: and redevelop it. But now it sounds like the White 293 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: House and some of the President's aides are at least 294 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: trying to temper some of that talk out about a 295 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: minute left. 296 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it's a been big debate in the 297 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 6: US and around the world, really, but you heard Secretary 298 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 6: of State Marco Rubio just saying that the US wants 299 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 6: to play a big role in rebuilding Gaza, but that 300 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 6: it doesn't want to own it. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth 301 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 6: saying the US is quote a very long way away 302 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 6: from deploying the military. So you're definitely seeing a walk back. 303 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 6: The big pitch here, or the big idea I think 304 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 6: has been that. Listen, President Trump was thinking outside the 305 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 6: box here with that proposal, but it's really not where 306 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 6: the US is headed. 307 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 5: At this point. 308 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 309 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 3: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 310 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 311 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 312 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 313 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 3: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 314 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 315 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 316 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 3: XM Channel one twenty one. 317 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 318 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 319 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
