and natasha, as alan is saying, that has been so much confusion. i mean, you mentioned pet file which supports millions of people who need a child support for h i v. and even, you know, the wave about that is unclear absolute confusion, but do you think that this is something that this us administration will actually be able to do whether was merging usa id with the state department or trying to scale it back to the level that it is, i mean, usually idea is not supposed to be part of the state department supposed to be independent and it received congressional approval and funding for this. so it doesn't really work when it's part of the state department, particularly the state department left by marco rubio, who has really been promoting this. trump, you know, trump's agenda that everybody that works for the trouble government administration has to be in line with trumps. ideological goals, and that's not really the purpose of monitoring agency organization, but it's trying to stay lots and they're trying to find people whored as loyal and create

good morning natasha. thank you so much for your time. let's start with those calls from president trump to balance the budget. we're just five weeks away again from this government funding deadline. we're seeing tensions rise between senate and house republicans. you know, the senate republicans are saying that that they want to take the lead on the budget bill. and then you have house speaker mike johnson saying, no, we want to make the first move. is trump going to have to to pick a side here? >> i think he actually loves that both the republicans in the senate and the house are competing for his attention and want to take a lead in the agenda. of course, the agenda is something that is not going to balance the budget, because part of this is to implement a huge tax cut like the tax cuts that he implemented in 2017, which added billions and billions, of course, to the deficit. so that's one big part of of the agenda. another big part is to have more money for immigration and to be able to engage in this implementation plan to get rid o

but across the across the globe. >> okay, natasha, thank you so much for that. wait to see what comes in terms of tariffs today. well, president trump says he's spoken to president putin and he's hoping the war in ukraine ends fast. coming up, we'll find out what a member of ukraine's parliament thinks about that plan. >> and china begins to impose retaliatory tariffs against the united states as president trump warns, even more levies could be coming for trade partners around the globe. we'll look at the possible impacts of that just ahead. >> like a relentless weed. moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. >> symptoms can keep. >> coming back. >> start to break away. >> from uc. >> with tremfya. with rapid. >> relief at four. >> weeks. >> tremfya blocks a key source of inflammation at one year. many people experienced. remission and some. >> saw 100%. >> visible healing of their intestinal lining. serious allergic reactions and increased risk of infections may occur before treatment. your doctor should check you for infections and tb. tell your doctor if you hav

natasha linstad is a professor of government at the university of essex. she joins us now from colchester, england. i mean, it's a different view of democracy essentially, isn't it? these different branches of democracy are meant to sort of play off against each other. and what jd vance is saying is that the executive should have all the power right. >> and i would argue that that's not really a democracy when there's not any checks and balances, when you have almost like a super presidential system that you see in hybrid regimes, that that's not really a democracy. there needs to be some way of of checking the executive. and that's why we have article one in our constitution, which empowers congress to to have the power of the purse to to set the budget to, to a lot spending for different agencies and organizations. and so that's why we're seeing all this legal pushback, because what trump has been doing, and he's been on a rampage trying to dismantle the u.s. government. but what he's been doing is not constitutional. and so i think if you look back into

and joining us now, former treasury official and washington post contributing columnist natasha sarinthanks so much for joining us. let's go back to the tariffs. and this 30 day pause. can you help me understand what the intent is here or what. can you can you figure out what the intent is with this 30 day pause? well. >> katie, the first thing. >> i think that your viewers. >> should understand is. >> like, trump. >> really didn't get anything in. >> response to initiating this trade war. >> so what he got is like, mexico. >> is going to have some more border patrol. they had. >> already committed. >> to doing that. canada is going to invest more in. >> border security. they had also already committed. >> to doing that. >> the only thing that was new. >> that came out. >> of all of. >> this. >> is they're going to have a fentanyl. >> czar who's going to. be responsible for. >> trying to. >> think. about the nature. >> of fentanyl. >> and the. >> crisis in the. >> country and crisis in our. >> country as well. >> but remember, canada is responsible for like 1%. >> of the fentanyl. >>
