Katherine Clark (D-MA) responded to a question on addressing affordability when the big issues are gas prices and interest rates, the latter of which will likely require decreasing government spending by saying that “The fastest thing we can do to lower costs for Americans right now is end this war and get to a resolution of it, open the Strait of Hormuz, and bring those gas prices down.” Co-host Becky Quick asked, “How do you get at the affordability issue, though, when what’s — the biggest issues that are…

On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” Rep. French Hill (R-AR) commented on the proposed anti-weaponization fund and said that “it was a challenge when President Obama proposed a similar fund” with questionable levels of oversight and “the House and the Senate, need to conduct oversight and appropriate money for purposes and have that due diligence.
