First, Fox News contributor and host of ‘The Ben Domenech Podcast,’ Ben Domenech, joins the Rundown to explain how the White House is navigating kitchen table issues and RFK Jr.’s potential role as 2024 spoilers. Later, Democratic strategist and former Biden campaign surrogate Kevin Walling joins to break down how the Biden administration plans to win back angered sections of the Democratic base.

Senior Vice President and Senior Policy Director for the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, Marc Goldwein, joins the podcast to analyze Speaker Johnson’s new plan and describe why neither party is willing to address the root of the problem.
