The Washington Stand’s Casey Harper reports on Sec. of State Marco Rubio’s global meeting on far-left violence and terrorism, the Israel-Lebanon negotiations, and previews President Trump’s speech, which is expected to cover election integrity. Morgan Griffith, U.S. Representative for Virginia’s 9th District, discusses the recent House meetings with Vice President J.D. Vance regarding Reconciliation 3.0 and the House Health subcommittee hearings on taking steps to improve the FDA’s drug approval process. Chris Smith, U.S. Representative for New Jersey's 4th District, sounds the alarm on the rising wave of antisemitism and reacts to a House vote on Rep. Thomas Massie's amendment that, if enacted, would cut off U.S. aid to Israel. Brad Hudson, State Senator from Missouri’s 33rd District, overviews the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which he authored, and a ballot measure in Missouri that would reverse a radical abortion amendment from last year. Dr. Robert George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University, breaks down the frequent misconceptions of the Comstock Act, how it is applied to the abortion drug mifepristone, and the tensions it creates between state and federal laws.
