North Carolina Senator Ted Budd speaks to FOX8 about recently passed megabill
HIGH POINT, N.C. (WGHP) — Congress had been working around the clock and on weekends to finalize President Trump's megabill that set the parameters for government spending over the next year. A majority of Americans in both parties didn't seem to be happy with the outcome, which isn't uncommon in the political world, in which all 535 members of Congress have a say in what they want. But North Carolina Senator Ted Budd spoke with FOX8's Senior Political Reporter Bob Buckley about his take on the bill, including the claim that Republicans didn't reduce spending enough to get the nation back on a sustainable fiscal track. 'I am all about cutting spending … Let's do it on the essentials that keep this country strong and keep it safe,' Budd said. The case he makes is that the best way to increase government revenues is to grow the economy to bring in more overall tax dollars. 'Let's rein in spending … We need to outgrow this problem, and I think this is step one. It's a step in the right direction … Last night, 3 in the morning, we're voting on rescissions, and that's a step in the right direction … We haven't done this in 30 years or more, but now we took a step in the right direction to rein in spending on things that aren't really representative of what people elected Donald Trump to do,' he said.

SEE IT: Unique deer making rounds in local community
NORTH OLMSTED, Ohio (WJW) — A unique fawn appears to be making its rounds in North Olmsted. FOX 8 viewer Mat Hendricks sent us video of the baby deer, which is nearly all white except for a few dark patches around its eyes. Hendricks said the fawn was spotted on Tuesday, July 15 near Lorain Road. STEP INSIDE: Ohio's most expensive home needs a buyer A few weeks earlier, another FOX 8 viewer submitted a similar video of what appears to be the same young deer, spotted nearby along Gessner Road. Both viewers said the eye-catching deer was with its mom and sibling. The unique genetic trait may be getting passed along through the generations of deer in the area. Ominous cloud over NE Ohio: What was it? In November 2024, a similar deer was spotted, also along Lorain Road. At the time, FOX 8 reported that, according to ODNR Wildlife Communications Specialist Monika Bowman Bell, the deer most likely has a pigmentation anomaly called leucism, or the partial absence of melanin in the animal. According to Bell, unlike albinism, which is a complete lack of melanin, including the eyes, leucistic animal eyes are typically unaffected and they may have dark hooves or other coloration, like spots.
