Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) blasted Senate Democrats on Thursday night, accusing them of prioritizing taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants over military personnel and veterans. Speaking on Fox News Channel’s Hannity, Hawley said Democrats’ refusal to pass a clean funding bill revealed their true priorities during what Republicans are calling the “Schumer Shutdown.”
On CNBC’s Squawk Box, Ford CEO Jim Farley applauded President Trump’s proposed 25 percent tariff on heavy‑duty trucks, calling it an opportunity to level the playing field for American manufacturers. He acknowledged, however, that parts tariffs—ranging from 25 to 70 percent—create a major “headwind” for Ford, adding roughly $2 billion in costs. Farley expressed optimism that solutions are within reach through ongoing negotiations with the administration.
