President Trump has arrived in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for the start of a tour of the Middle East that will include visits to the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.
The trip marks Trump’s first extended foreign visit of his second term. His itinerary on Tuesday includes an official state visit, a state dinner and attending a Saudi investment forum.
Trump and his aides are expected to focus intensely on financial investments and trade during the trip, but it will also be shadowed by controversy over a Qatari luxury jet being gifted to the U.S. to be used as a new Air Force One.
Meanwhile in Congress, House Republicans are moving ahead this week with two of the most controversial pieces to the “big beautiful bill” at the heart of Trump’s agenda.
A powerful set of panels, the House Energy and Commerce Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee, are set Tuesday to consider steep cuts to Medicaid and an extension of the GOP’s 2017 tax cuts.
The mark ups stand to expose deep divisions within the Republican conference that pit moderates against conservatives, which stands to delay implementation of Trump’s key domestic policies.
