The Redistricting War Is Escalating

from The Fox News Rundown · host FOX News Podcasts

This week, the battle for House control shifts to Florida as Governor DeSantis calls a special session to counter a recent Virginia constitutional amendment that could give Democrats four additional seats. While Democrats eye ten potential seat gains across Virginia and Utah, Republicans are pushing for rapid redistricting changes to protect their own advantages held in states like Texas and Ohio. FOX News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to explain why this "one-upping" strategy is leaving both parties frustrated, and the courts scrambling to define what a "compact" district actually looks like. The legal and therapeutic status of ibogaine, a Schedule 1 controlled substance, is facing a historic shift as new federal actions aim to fast-track research into psychedelics for treating veteran trauma. Veteran and No Fallen Heroes Foundation founder Whiz Buckley joins to discuss his experience using the West African compound to heal from alcoholism & PTSD, the significance of the recent presidential executive order, and his efforts to provide radical healing alternatives to the pharmaceutical approach of the VA.  PLUS, commentary by Jimmy Failla, host of FOX News Saturday Night and FOX News Radio’s FOX Across America.
