U.S. Oil and Gas Association Tim Stewart talks about the energy industry’s boost to the job market. “The fact is the world needs what we produce in greater numbers every day. Our use of hydrocarbons grows every day and we’re racing to keep pace,” he says. “So thank God we got Texas because the public land states, their numbers are dropping precipitously due to the way the administration manages the public land energy producing states.”

U.S. Oil and Gas Association President Tim Stewart talks about electric vehicles' costly impact on Big Three automakers first quarter earnings. “They’re coming around to the fact that there’s absolutely no subsidy that will save a business plan like this if you're trying to sell something that people don’t want,” says Stewart.

Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters says he’ll be joining up with like-minded states to fight back against the Biden administration’s new changes to Title IX. “There’s really two ways to fight it. You’re going to have the legal fight to block it, but then we also are going to have the fight to just not comply. They are relying on us and the states to enforce their illegal, unconstitutional edict here," he says.

Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters says the Biden administration’s trans-inclusive changes to Title IX are “the most egregious oversteps we’ve seen from the federal government.” “I sent a letter to [Department of Education] Secretary Cardona, I told him he should resign in disgrace over this,” he says. “You couldn’t see somebody more tone-deaf than this radical president and his regime here.”

Former Federal Prosecutor Kash Patel explains how U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s questions poked major holes in the Justice Department’s case against former President Donald Trump’s presidential immunity claim. Patel says the DOJ knew they were “out of ammo” when Alito scrutinized their argument.

Former Federal Prosecutor Kash Patel says that in order to charge former President Donald Trump with mishandling classified documents, President Joe Biden had to singularly direct the Justice Department “to vitiate Donald Trump’s executive privilege.” “And if that weren’t bad enough, now we have his cohorts at DOJ instructing NARA to break protocol,” he says. “Like you said John, this had never been done before and NARA admitted that, and then NARA bent the knee to the will of the Biden DOJ and the Biden White House to bring charges, baselessly so, against Donald Trump for political reasons."

Representative Warren Davidson (R-OH) celebrates the House passing the bipartisan Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act. The legislation, co-sponsored by Rep. Davidson, would limit law enforcement and government’s ability to purchase Americans’ data from Big Tech companies. "Privacy may be one of our most infringed rights that’s supposed to be protected by the Bill of Rights,” he says.

Representative Warren Davidson (R-OH) draws attention to the highly organized strategy of the pro-Palestine student protests. “If you look at tents for example that are showing up at these encampments, all the students didn’t just decide to go shopping together. Someone’s supplying all the material for this,” he says. “This is a manufactured campaign and it’s going on around campuses all over the country, notably left-wing campuses.”

Former White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley encourages Republicans to get actively involved with the election process this November. “If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu,” he says. “You got to be in the room seeing this stuff happen in real time to flag it."

AMAC Action Senior Vice President Andy Mangione says he’s been working with physician groups to expose pharmacy benefit managers’ (PBM) anticompetitive business practices. “They drive up costs and it's been proven that the rebates that the drug companies pay have a negative effect on the cost of prescription drugs,” says Mangione.

Carla Sands, former United States Ambassador to Denmark, says President Joe Biden’s green agenda raises energy costs and contributes to inflation. Sands says America needs former President Donald Trump's economic policies back in action.

Former White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley describes ranked choice voting as a “cumbersome, clunky” way to cast a ballot. Gidley says states like Maine and Alaska are trying to repeal ranked choice voting after one election cycle because of the confusion it causes.

Gun Owners of America Director of Federal Affairs Aiden Johnston says the recent raid on an Arkansas airport executive's home looks like the ATF hasn't "changed its tactics since Waco.” “Whether or not he was actually dealing firearms without a license, this shows the seriousness with which ATF is going to enforce that law,” says Johnston. “If ATF thinks you’re going to deal in firearms without a license, they’re going to show up at your house and they’re going to raid you and they’re willing to shoot you over enforcing that law.”

Gun Owners of America Director of Federal Affairs Aiden Johnston says the Biden administration’s rule on “ghost guns” violates the law and invades gunowner’s privacy. “There’s a lot of good reasons that a privacy conscious gunowner might want to purchase one of these kits and also they’re great fun for hobbyists," says Johnston. “And that’s what Gun Owners of America is going to be fighting for with our amicus brief in this case.”

MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider says his organization has obtained the internal data of every single media outlet rated by NewsGuard, a news rating system that favors left-leaning media outlets. “In the past, we’ve done studies on the publicly available data that showed that NewsGuard gives positive ratings to 90 plus percent of liberal outlets... Now that we’ve got our hands on the complete data, the results are pretty similar. But we’ll be producing those results soon,” says Schneider.

MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider says Facebook’s censoring of the Hunter Biden laptop story had a tremendous impact on the 2020 election outcome. “That’s a story that almost half of Biden voters had never even heard about because of Big Tech censorship and because of legacy media censorship,” says Schneider. "Based on our own poll at the Media Research Center, 9.4% of these Biden voters would not have voted for him had they known of the Hunter Biden laptop story. This story, and this story alone, explains why Donald Trump is not the sitting president of the United States today.”

Representative Eli Crane (R-AZ) says he is starting to see a movement within the government to safely remove U.S. troops stationed in Niger before it turns into a dire situation like the Benghazi or Afghanistan withdrawal. “These are exactly the types of situations I’ve been talking about that lets the Chinese believe that they have a window of opportunity to start making aggressive moves around the world, when they see the weakness that this administration continues to show,” says Rep. Crane.

Representative Eli Crane (R-AZ) says Biden administration officials like Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas will not address lawmakers’ concerns about the open southern border. "That's really the problem, John, when dealing with this administration... They don't want you to know and they try to stonewall representatives who are very intent on securing our border from getting the information that we need to keep this country safe," he says. "Nevertheless, that's why it's important that we continue to hold his feet to the fire."

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) says he supports defunding colleges that allow antisemitic protests to run rampant on their campuses. Sen. Johnson also talks about the left's long-term gameplan to spread extremist ideology throughout major institutions. "Because they control the media, because they control academia, because they control universities, they've kept it under the radar but now it's bubbling to the surface in this grotesque display of support for the brutal murderers of Hamas," he says.

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) says Republicans gave up the sole leverage they had to force President Joe Biden to close the border by passing the $95 billion foreign aid bill. “It’s important to point out—Trump had the authority, he closed the border. Biden used that exact same authority, opened it up. So he has the authority. He just doesn’t have the will,” he says. “Democrats and President Biden want an open border. They caused this problem.”

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) says there has always been a dispute over what classified documents the president is allowed to keep or must return to the National Archives and Records Administration. Sen. Johnson says that issue doesn’t exist for Joe Biden and the classified documents he kept as a U.S. Senator and Vice President. “Clear violation of the law, and yet President Biden gets let off scot-free because, I guess it's because he’s senile,” he says.
