Former Minnesota U.S. Representative Michele Bachmann lambasts Governor Tim Walz’s extreme abortion and LGBT+ agenda. “It is probably the most blood-soaked agenda from an abortion perspective that I think any state has put into effect. It is pro-death in every possible way. It is anti-child," she says.

Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) says the Biden administration has a serious spending and government auditing problem. “They’re funding NGOs that are actually recruiting people to come into this country and financing those people coming into the country. This is U.S. taxpayer dollars,” he says.

Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) says he’s expected Vice President Kamala Harris to choose Arizona Senator Mark Kelly as her 2024 running mate, not Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. "He's about as radical as any elected official is. He wants to out-California California,” he says.

Former Israeli Diplomat and independent journalist Jake Novak criticizes United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s response to the protests and riots breaking out across the country. Novak says Starmer’s biggest failure is that he’s arresting one side of the rioters while refusing to find a solution that brings communities together or addresses root problems like immigration integration.

Former Israeli Diplomat and independent journalist Jake Novak says he’s surprised Europe didn’t reach its boiling point with immigration and open borders five years ago. “There’s no such thing as a melting pot in Europe. It's been a long time since I’ve heard the United States described as a melting pot, and that’s sad, but they never referred to Europe or the UK as a melting pot,” he says. “So you have this situation where they’re really not integrated, there’s no inclination from the government or their own leaders—these migrant communities or immigrant communities—to also integrate in any way what soever, and of course we’ve seen the economic issues for the native British people that this causes.”

National Council of Resistance of Iran Deputy Director Alireza Jafarzadeh weighs in on how Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei will likely retaliate against Israel following the assassination of Senior Hamas Leader Ismail Haniyeh. “They cannot be silent because it just breaks that aura and the perception of power. It really demoralizes and embarrasses the regime. So, they’re faced with a very, very difficult situation,” he says. “Either way, whatever they do at the end of the day, I don’t think they will come out as a winner.”

Alireza Jafarzadeh, deputy director of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, says U.S. leaders need to know that the Iranian regime only understands “the language of firmness and decisiveness.” “At the end of the day, [the U.S.] needs to come up with decisions that would hold the regime accountable, that would punish the regime for their terrorism,” he says.

Monica Crowley, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs, says it will be hard for Google to recover from today’s stock market plunge and its loss in a major antitrust lawsuit against the Justice Department. A federal judge ruled Monday that Google has maintained an unfair monopoly over its search engine and that it must stop its anticompetitive behavior. “Google is not a good faith player here and it's going to be very interesting to see the fallout from this decision,” she says.

Monica Crowley, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs, shares her analysis of the global stock market crisis. Crowley says the market plunge was influenced by last Friday’s weak jobs report, the increased likelihood of war in the Middle East, and Warren Buffett’s huge sell of Apple stock.

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill doesn't expect to see the Biden administration let up on its new Title IX regulations, despite growing public opposition to the changes. “I think this has been a signature policy for this administration from the day they took office so I really don’t see any chance that they’re going to abandon it. I think they will continue to fight for this rule,” she says.

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill shares new posters that tie modern culture into her state’s law requiring all public school classrooms exhibit the Ten Commandments. “They not only carry the message of what’s contained in the Ten Commandments, but they show how it relates to other aspects of law and other kinds of social implications in our country,” she says.

Kim Carey, mother to U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sergeant James Carey, says being gifted a mortgage-free smart home by the Tunnel to Towers Foundation has been liberating for her son. Carey talks about the process of Tunnel to Towers building this home for James and their family’s long history of military service.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation CEO and Chairman Frank Siller says his organization looks forward to hosting its 22nd annual Tunnels to Towers 5K run and walk on September 29. Siller says the 5K will start at Battery Tunnel and end at Ground Zero, symbolizing his late younger brother Stephen’s final footsteps, and wrap up with a celebration for servicemen and first responders.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation CEO and Chairman Frank Siller says his organization is in the process of buying hotels and land nationwide for homeless veterans. Siller says T2T provided services and homes for over 5,000 homeless veterans last year.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation CEO and Chairman Frank Siller talks about his foundation’s efforts to help American veterans and families of fallen first responders. “In the fire department, there’s a saying that ‘many hands makes light work.’ And if many Americans come together to help these great heroes, then we can take care of every single one of them,” he says.

Kristina Moon, widow of FDNY firefighter William Moon II, talks about how important it was having the first responder community and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation help her and her family through their grief. “You know, I’ve said to people a few times in the past 18 months—you're only as strong as the communities holding you. And I’d say ours are holding us really high,” she says.

Kristina Moon, widow of FDNY firefighter William Moon II, shares how her husband’s tragic passing in the line of duty saved the lives of five others through organ donation. “He was 6’4” and you couldn’t miss him when he walked into a room, and one of the things that he believed strongly in was organ donation and just always being there for people,” she says.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation Vice President John Huvane recounts his experience on 9/11 as a New York City Police Department Detective assigned to then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s protection team. “It was a tragic day, but it also was a day that really brought America together for a period of time. It didn’t matter what side of the aisle you were on. We worked together as the United States of America,” he says.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation Vice President John Huvane says his organization paid tribute to this year’s Independence Day by paying off the home mortgages of 35 families of fallen officers, firefighters, and servicemen. Huvane says Tunnel to Towers also built a smart home for an injured Marine in Mississippi.

Arizona Republican congressional candidate Abe Hamadeh agrees with former President Donald Trump’s call for a landslide election victory that’s “too big to rig.” “We just got to make sure that Republicans stay motivated, [that] they don’t give up on the system,” he says.

Arizona Republican congressional candidate Abe Hamadeh talks about winning his GOP primary election and his strategy moving forward to November. “With my victory, I think it really showed that the good guys still have a chance. We shouldn’t just give up right now. Now is the moment to put our foot on the pedal and to win this thing,” he says.
