主持人：美国国税局公布了2025纳税年度的税收调整，以应对通货膨胀。这些调整包括对所得税级距、标准扣除额和资本利得税率的调整，旨在根据通货膨胀对不同收入水平的纳税人进行更公平的税收。虽然税率保持不变，但由于通货膨胀率下降，与前几年相比，此次调整幅度较小，约为2.8%。这些变化将影响2025纳税年度，纳税人在2026年申报时将感受到这些变化。此外，主持人还讨论了2017年税收法案的影响，该法案对个人免税额和列举扣除额做出了调整，这些调整不受通货膨胀的影响。
主持人：一名联邦法官命令国防部移交与前总统特朗普最近访问阿灵顿国家公墓相关的记录。该命令源于一个非党派监督组织提起的诉讼，该组织援引《信息自由法案》要求获得该事件的报告。该事件涉及特朗普在公墓内与工作人员发生争执，争执似乎源于拍照和摄像的问题。该事件的细节尚不清楚，但该裁决将有助于澄清事件的真相。
主持人：佐治亚州最高法院阻止了七项新的州选举规则的执行。这些规则在选举前一个月由州选举委员会通过，但随后被下级法院认定为非法、违宪且无效。佐治亚州最高法院驳回了对该裁决的上诉请求，这意味着这些规则将保持失效状态，直到法院做出最终裁决。
主持人：除了以上主要新闻外，主持人还简要介绍了其他新闻，包括：联邦航空管理局发布了关于新型“动力升力”飞机（空中出租车）的最终特别规定；波音公司公布了自2020年疫情以来最大的季度亏损；美国疾病控制与预防中心就麦当劳的四分之一磅牛肉汉堡发布了安全警报；美国国防部长证实朝鲜军队已部署到俄罗斯；美国消费者金融保护局命令高盛和苹果公司支付总计8900万美元的罚款；副总统哈里斯将参加今晚的CNN市民大会；特朗普将于周五参加乔·罗根体验播客。
