Heritage Foundation Border Security and Immigration Center Director Lora Ries believes there's some collusion taking place behind President Joe Biden's executive order limiting asylum claim processing based on how quickly the ACLU filed a lawsuit. “I would bet money that these organizations got an advanced copy. And certain members of Congress on the left are screaming loudly about it, it’s just showing the theater of all of this,” she says.

Heritage Foundation Border Security and Immigration Center Director Lora Ries slams President Joe Biden's executive order that bars illegal immigrants from receiving asylum when there is a surge in illegal crossings. “This executive order does three things, none of which is secure the border,” she explains. “It allows him to say he did something. It gives him another opportunity to try and bash congressional Republicans, even though he forgets about the House which did its job over a year ago in passing H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act—an excellent bill. And it whistles to his ally organizations on the left that they should sue to stop implementation of this. And right on cue, the ACLU has already stated that it will in fact sue to stop this."

Convention of States President Mark Meckler says unpaid loans taken out during the COVID pandemic have left over 60 banks on the brink of insolvency. “What effects commercial banking affects the rest of the economy. I think we’re in for a rough ride,” he says.

Convention of States President Mark Meckler says Democrats won’t learn anything from their backfired conviction of former President Donald Trump. “Remember these are ideologues. They're not just political operators. Their goal is to dominate and control everything. They don’t care what methodology they use,” he says.

Convention of States President Mark Meckler says he was stunned by the blowback from former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial conviction. “We’ve now seen almost $200 million in fundraising for Donald Trump. And I can tell you that the passion in the grass roots is as white hot as I’ve ever seen it,” he says.

Empower Oversight President Tristan Leavitt reacts to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland’s denial of the Justice Department’s involvement in Matthew Colangelo joining the New York prosecution against President Trump. "Whether or not Garland can say that he directed some coordination, that doesn’t change the fact that the Department of Justice clearly had an impact through their personnel going in and staffing this case,” he says.

Empower Oversight President Tristan Leavitt says FBI whistleblower Marcus Allen’s settlement agreement with the agency is a “huge, huge win” for all whistleblowers. In February 2022, Allen was suspended without pay and benefits and had his security clearance revoked after he spoke out about FBI Director Christopher Wray’s January 6 testimony.

Real America’s Voice Campaign Correspondent Brian Glenn says former President Donald Trump could appeal to independent and “agnostic” voters by holding rallies in deep-blue cities. "I want to see Madison Square Garden. I want to see more people in that venue than the New York Knicks can draw. And I think it’s very possible that he can do that,” he says.

National Council of Resistance of Iran Deputy Director Alireza Jafarzadeh says it was a shame to see the United State government and United Nations offer condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi. Jafarzadeh says they should have used his death to commemorate the victims and survivors of Raisi, a mass murderer known as the “Butcher of Tehran.”

National Council of Resistance of Iran Deputy Director Alireza Jafarzadeh says we'll probably never know whether or not the helicopter crash that killed Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi was an inside job. Jafarzadeh says that regardless of what really happened, the image of Raisi and the powerful Iranian regime has been shattered for the people of Iran.

Former Deputy National Security Advisor Victoria Coates says there’s “no evidence” Claudia Sheinbaum, the newly elected president of Mexico, would have the power to shut down the cartels’ fentanyl operations even if she wanted to. “This is killing tens of thousands of Americans. It’s a much worse death toll than COVID and that suddenly just doesn’t get mentioned,” she says. “And I haven’t heard anything from the president-elect of Mexico on it either.”

Former Deputy National Security Advisor Victoria Coates says the Democrat-led Senate’s failed immigration bill is the basis for President Joe Biden’s executive order that will partially suspend asylum claim processing at the southern border. “He said he didn’t have any power to do it before, the Congress had to. I guess he found some extra power in one of the drawers of the Oval Office resolute desk and is going to be doing this tomorrow,” she says.

Former Deputy National Security Advisor Victoria Coates says Mexico electing leftist climate scientist Claudia Sheinbaum as its president is like trading a "very dangerous and difficult situation with Mexico for a worse one.” Coates predicts Sheinbaum will find common ground with the Biden administration’s extreme climate policies and do “absolutely nothing” to stop the open border crisis.

Representative Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) says it’s important for Congress to practice oversight over public health agencies and the taxpayer-funded grants that go to them. “You don’t just keep handing your kids money and have no idea what they’re spending it on,” he says.

Representative Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) says he’s not sure it was former NIAID director Anthony Fauci’s job to assume authority over COVID pandemic rules. “I think social distancing made sense. We always try to stay away from infectious people as best we can. That’s like a common rule, even with the cold. But to say this was a distance that was required, and no science behind it and not tell the American people there wasn’t science behind it is wrong,” he says. “Because remember, at one point he said ‘everything I've been telling you has been based on science.’”

Representative Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) shares his biggest takeaways from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s testimony Monday to the House Oversight Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. “Clearly Dr. Fauci was not a good messenger during COVID,” he says. “And I don’t even know why he was in charge to be honest with you."

House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-OH) reacts to a bombshell story broken by “Just the News” exposing how the law firm that employed Hunter Biden drafted a 58-page plan to help Ukranian energy company Burisma Holdings avoid an ongoing criminal probe. The June 2014 document details how Hunter Biden, his business partners, and his law firm colleagues intended to pressure influential Washington contacts to get Ukraine to drop their criminal investigation.

House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-OH) says he’ll be seeking a criminal referral against Hunter Biden for allegedly lying to Congress during President Joe Biden’s impeachment inquiry. Smith says he’ll be making the referral based on evidence provided by the two IRS whistleblowers proving the first son lied during deposition on at least three different counts.

RNC Chairman Michael Whatley compares former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden’s polling at this point in the race with their standing during the 2020 election. “[Trump] is playing offense all across the country right now. Joe Biden on the other hand is playing defense,” he says. “And that’s why he continues to go back to the weaponization of the judiciary as it’s his only option for winning this election.”

Pollster Scott Rasmussen says former President Donald Trump’s conviction in his hush money trial will likely have little change on his standing in the polls against President Joe Biden. "We've never had a situation like this in the country before. So we might be surprised. But all the indications are, it's not likely to have a big impact. Can't say there won't be any and in a race that might be decided by 10,000 or 20,000 voters in key swing states, anything can can happen," he says.

Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi compares former President Donald Trump’s hush money criminal case with Hunter Biden’s gun charges. “There is a reason why people who are addicted to crack and cocaine and holding guns in photographs shouldn’t have a firearm," she says.

Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi shares her thoughts on the public's response to former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial conviction. She also talks about how Republicans should defend the rule of law going into the 2024 election.
