Maine Dems Melt Down as Platner Exits Senate Race & Speaker Johnson Declares "America is at a Political Crossroad"

U.S.House Speaker MIKE JOHNSON (R-LA)—joining us from the campaign trail in California—flatly declares America is at a “crossroads” politically, as radical Democratic Socialists continue to score victories in races for Congress: “It is time for all freedom-loving patriots to stand up in the November misterms.” U.S. Ambassador to Israel MIKE HUCKABEE says it is more important than ever that the U.S. and Israel maintain their historic friendship, noting that just this week Israel provided President DONALD J. TRUMP with intelligence on an Iranian plot to kill our President. CHRISTIAN DATOC, White House correspondent for The Washington Examiner, breaks down the chaos in Maine where Senate nominee Graham Platner will formally exit the race this Monday after disturbing new sexual assault allegations; what impact will this have on the re-election effort of U.S. Senator SUSAN COLLINS (R-ME.) Retired USAF General JOHN TEICHERT offers perspective on the potential Trump Administration sale of F-35 fighter jets to Turkey and how that could compromise U.S. technology security.  And TONY PERKINS’ commentary zeroes-in on a massive LGBTQ and “Trans” relocation to Seattle from Red States and the pressure that is putting on Blue States to, again, raise taxes.  All this—and more—coming up on our latest edition of THIS WEEK ON CAPITOL HILL with Tony Perkins, sponsored by AARP.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
