Beware the 'fiscal cliff', Don's much-improved 'second honeymoon' and other commentary

^{Published on 2024-12-18 20:00:35 - MSN}

Republican: Beware the 'Fiscal Cliff' "Republicans' election celebrations" soon must yield to facing the "fiscal cliff," warns ex-Rep. Jeb Hensarling at The Wall Street Journal. "Key" Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions expire next year as Uncle Sam hits the $26.

The article from MSN discusses several key political and economic issues. It warns about the looming "fiscal cliff" due to the expiration of tax cuts and the implementation of spending cuts, which could push the U.S. economy into a recession if not addressed by Congress. It also touches on the political landscape, mentioning the potential for a government shutdown and the ongoing debate over the debt ceiling. Additionally, the piece includes commentary on former President Donald Trump's influence within the Republican Party, suggesting his political power remains strong despite legal challenges. Other topics include the implications of recent Supreme Court decisions, the ongoing debate over immigration policy, and a brief mention of international relations, particularly concerning U.S. policy towards China and Russia. The article concludes with a light-hearted note on Don Lemon's second honeymoon, indicating a mix of serious political analysis with lighter personal news.
