Episode description
After a 76-day long shutdown, the Department of Homeland Security has reopened, bringing the longest funding lapse in U.S. history to an end. FOX New Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to explain what it took to finally reopen DHS, before going over the FISA debate and how this past week’s Supreme Court ruling on the Voting Rights Act could impact the ongoing redistricting fight ahead of midterms.
Later, FOX News Audio White House Correspondent Jared Halpern shares his firsthand account of the third attempted assassination attempt on President Trump at last week’s White House Correspondent’s Dinner.
