This is your Republican News and info tracker podcast.

Congressional Republicans return to Washington this week under the pressure of a looming government shutdown. After passing Donald Trump’s major tax and spending cuts over the summer, Republicans now face tense negotiations with Democrats to avoid a federal closure as current funding runs out at the end of the month. Senate Republicans are also weighing a rule change to break Democratic holds on nominations, while the House continues investigations of former President Joe Biden and wrestles with demands from Speaker Mike Johnson’s conference around Trump administration files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump has dominated headlines on multiple fronts. Speculation about Trump’s health swirled over the weekend, fueled by his absence from public events, rumors on social media, and a blank White House schedule. Vice President JD Vance even commented in a USA Today interview, assuring listeners that Trump is “in incredibly good health” and ready for anything. Trump surfaced Saturday at his Virginia golf course, shutting down the rumors with public appearances and energetic activity. The White House confirmed that Trump’s summer diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency—now managed and considered common for his age—should not impact his ability to serve. Trump himself took to Truth Social, posting about his health and lashing out at critics, while also declaring Washington, D.C. a “crime free zone” after ordering National Guard troops into the city earlier this month.

Trump’s deployment of the National Guard and takeover of law enforcement in D.C. has become a major point of political debate. Polls show that about half of Americans approve of Trump’s hard stance on crime, with concern about public safety remaining high across party lines. Democratic leaders, however, argue that resources are better spent on community policing and mental health, and they warn the measures risk intimidating voters and distracting from other vital issues. At a recent Democratic National Committee event, strategists cautioned party members not to match Republicans’ “tough-on-crime” rhetoric but instead promote comprehensive safety solutions.

Outside the headlines, the Republican Party continues organizing around local events and grassroots outreach, as seen with the Los Alamos chapter’s upcoming September cookouts, speaker nights, and a silent auction to support candidates. They are focused on connecting with families, supporting school board nominees, and engaging voters before the next round of national and state elections.

On the policy front, Trump continues to defend his administration’s expansive tariff policy. Following a recent appeals court ruling that found many of his broad tariffs exceeded executive authority, Trump responded on Truth Social that “without tariffs, our country would be completely destroyed.” He expressed gratitude for the lone Obama-appointed judge who dissented, insisted all tariffs “are still in effect,” and warned financial disaster should his tariff strategy be overturned by the courts. Legal experts say that tariffs under Section 232, such as those on steel and aluminum, remain untouched and likely to survive further litigation, with the dispute now headed toward the Supreme Court for review. This ongoing battle continues to impact global trade, with companies reworking supply chains in response to variable U.S. import duties.

Listeners following Republican politics, Donald Trump’s actions, and the RNC can expect intense negotiations in Congress, continued debates over law enforcement and crime, ongoing investigations and local party activism, as well as critical developments on the legal front regarding Trump’s economic policies.
