This week, in a party line vote, House lawmakers voted to approve the $2-trillion social and climate spending package following months of negotiations. President Biden and Democratic lawmakers are saying that the passing of the infrastructure and spending plan will help combat inflation not to add to by adding long term economic growth to the country despite what critics say.

Despite encouragement from the President, House Democrats fell short this week again in getting enough votes to pass President Biden’s now $1.75-trillion Build Back Better bill. Progressives are frustrated with what was cut from the original $3.5 trillion social package. With both the spending bill and bipartisan infrastructure bill still in limbo what does the path to the bills passing look like?

The House voted this week to find former White House aide and long-time ally of former President Trump, Steve Bannon in criminal contempt of Congress after defying a subpoena to appear before the select committee investigating the January 6th riot. It’s now up to the Department of Justice to determine whether they will bring up charges against Bannon. Jared and FOX News Correspondent David Spunt discuss what’s next for the former Trump advisor.
