Sunday shows preview: Government averts shutdown; Trump transition ramps up as inauguration nears
Congress averted a government shutdown late Friday evening as questions swirl about Speaker Mike Johnson's (R-La.) future as leader of the House after days of disagreements over the stop gap bill on Capitol Hill.
Johnson's leadership style received pushback from all corners of the GOP, which has highlighted uncertainty within the party about whether he should stay on as Speaker in the next session.
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky), who described Johnson as a “weak, weak man” during funding negotiations and even floated Musk to replace Johnson as House speaker, is set to join Fox News's "Sunday Morning Futures" where he will likely discuss the funding package.
Paul, the leading critic of the 20 GOP senators that voted against the Social Security bill that will bolster benefits for over 2 million American citizens Friday night, will also likely discuss his failed effort to amend the measure.
