Episode description

The construction of data centers around the country is shaping up to be a contentious topic as the midterm elections grow closer. Pressure is mounting on government officials to balance the economic growth these facilities could bring with the needs of the communities hosting them. Florida Lieutenant Governor and Republican candidate for Governor of Florida, Jay Collins, joins FOX News' Bill Melugin to discuss his proposed guardrails for AI development and data center expansion. He also weighs in on Florida's competitive Republican primary, responds to criticism from gubernatorial opponent, Congressman Byron Donalds, and explains how he would build on the legacy of Governor Ron DeSantis.

As the nation gears up to celebrate America 250, a new FOX Nation special, titled “The Patriot War,” dives into the stories of Revolutionary figures like Martha Washington, Alexander Hamilton and more. Emmy-winning actor, producer and director Kelsey Grammer joins Dave Anthony to share insight into the special, as well as political division today versus 250 years ago. He also previews his upcoming film Young Washington and reflects on why the political divisions of today aren't as unprecedented as we think.

PLUS, commentary by Jason Chaffetz, FOX News contributor and the host of the Jason In The House podcast on FOX News Radio.
