Fox News: LIZ PEEK: Cory Booker’s latest stunt could embarrass Democrats
Senator Cory Booker is calling for an investigation into alleged insider trading related to President Trump's tariff announcements, despite lacking evidence. He claims there's enough "smoke" to warrant congressional hearings, reflecting Democratic fears that Trump's economic strategies could succeed.
Democrats have previously scrutinized stock trading by Congress members, particularly Nancy Pelosi, whose trading success raises questions about potential insider knowledge. Calls to ban congressional stock trading have been largely ignored, highlighting ongoing concerns about transparency and ethics in politics.
Fox News: SEN ELIZABETH WARREN: Social Security is under attack. Gutting it is a broken promise

Critics argue that the push to streamline the agency is harming those who depend on Social Security, with reports of terminated benefits and long wait times for assistance. Advocates call for bipartisan support to protect and strengthen the program, emphasizing that Social Security is a promise earned through years of hard work.

Fox News: DOGE reveals what you get for the half million you'll pay in taxes over your lifetime
A recent study reveals that the average American pays over $524,000 in taxes throughout their lifetime, covering various taxes such as income, property, and sales tax. This amount could have funded significant expenses, including a home, cars, and child-rearing costs.
Instead, this money is often spent on federal grants and contracts that many taxpayers may not support, highlighting concerns about government spending efficiency. As discussions about tax cuts continue, the question remains whether the federal government can allocate taxpayer dollars better than individuals could for their own needs.
Fox News: MORNING GLORY: How the Senate and House finds two trillion dollars
The House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee are urged not to raise taxes on high earners but to consider a "conversion incentive window" for retirement accounts. This would allow taxpayers to convert traditional 401(k)s and IRAs into Roth IRAs, generating significant tax revenue.
With an estimated $22 trillion in untaxed retirement savings, a one-time conversion tax could yield substantial funds for the government. A tax rate of around 10-15% could attract many taxpayers, creating a financial boost while addressing budgetary needs.
