Congress Is Back. So Is The Stalemate.

Author: FOX News Radio April 15, 2026 Duration: 30:58
As Congress returns from its Easter break, the Department of Homeland Security remains partially unfunded amidst a legislative stalemate over border security. Roger Marshall (R-KS) joins to discuss using the budget reconciliation process to fund ICE and the Border Patrol, the economic impact of the Iran conflict, and why he believes "Tax Day" will bring significant refunds for most Americans. New York City is embarking on a "grand experiment." Mayor Zohran Mamdani recently announced the historic La Marqueta in East Harlem as the first site for the city’s new municipal grocery store program. The Mayor calls it a necessary move to push back against rising food costs, while critics are sounding the alarm over the $30 million price tag and the impact on local small businesses. Investigative reporter at the Manhattan Institute Adam Lehodey joins to break down the numbers and why a city-owned store could struggle to compete with the very bodegas it aims to challenge.
