The Senate Stalls Vacation Time

from RealClearPolitics Podcast · host RealClear Media

Andrew Walworth, Carl Cannon and RCP White House correspondent Carolina Lumetta discuss what is happening in the U.S. Senate, which is staying in session to deal with issues including the SAVE America Act and confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General. Then, Washington Post columnist and author of the Margin of Victory newsletter Henry Olsen joins the show to discuss lessons from Tuesday’s Democratic primary results and today’s primaries in Tennessee. And finally, Air Force Brigadier General John Teichert (Ret.) joins the team to discuss a possible agreement between Oman and Iran to open the Straits of Hormuz, whether American forces are running low on munitions, and whether a strategy of “strategic interdiction” - which would include striking high-value economic targets like Kharg Island - should be adopted by the U.S. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
