James Blair @JamesBlairUSA - If you watch the whole clip, I said we’ll certainly explore that but also that I think the most likely outcome is that it requires an act of congress.

Speaker Johnson on this: “I think it would require an act of Congress.”
“James Blair and I'll have some intense fellowship about that…We collaborate on strategy all the time, but this is an idea I think that makes sense. The President was talking about as recently as yesterday.
…I haven't talked to him about it, because he and I've been both been so busy last 24 hours. I'll see him in a little while, but I think what I heard him say yesterday is he's thinking about something maybe midway into next year, when the tariff revenue is realized and we can figure out what that looks like.“
