- Mayorkas Set for Return to Hot Seat for Hearing on Threats at Border
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is expected to face a barrage of questions regarding the security threats at America’s southern border at another hearing on Capitol Hill on Wednesday.
Mayorkas is set to testify before the House Homeland Security Committee at a hearing on “Worldwide Threats to the Homeland.”
The homeland security chief recently testified before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Nov. 8 and before the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee on Oct. 31.
“Secretary Mayorkas has been very good at evading answers throughout all of his testimonies,” says James Massa, the CEO of NumbersUSA, a group that advocates for lower rates of immigration, adding that he expects Mayorkas “to be evasive again.”
“He has deferred to not wanting to answer specific numbers, not wanting to answer countries of origin, not wanting to answer how any terrorist who's already been apprehended—and there's almost 170 of them that were on the FBI terrorist watchlist—how they handle them and what they do with them,” Massa says of Mayorkas.
Massa joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss what to expect during Wednesday’s hearing and whether real border security measures are possible under the current administration.

10 min - Florida Again Earns Top Spot on Heritage Foundation's Education Freedom Report Card
Florida has once again been ranked No. 1 among the states on The Heritage Foundation's Education Freedom Report Card, which was released at an event Thursday in Des Moines, Iowa.
"They have universal education choice in that state. Any child who wants it can exercise school choice," says Lindsey Burke, director of The Heritage Foundation's Center for Education Policy. (The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.)
"You'll notice I say 'education choice' more often than 'school choice,' because we're at a point now in the movement where states are adopting education savings accounts largely, although it's great if a state adopts a voucher or a tax credit, but these education savings accounts, ESAs, are much more flexible," Burke says, adding:
So, Florida took [its] education savings account program universal so every child now can exercise education choice. [It has] radical academic transparency to families. Families know what is taught in their public schools.There's some movement on teacher freedom to make it easier for professionals to enter the classroom without having to go through woke colleges of education in order to get there.Burke also notes that Arizona was once again in the No. 2 spot, and Utah clinched the No. 3 spot.
"Arizona is actually first in the country for education choice, but overall came in second on the report card. And then rounding out our top three was Utah," Burke says. "Utah, also, this year adopted a universal ESA style account, where pretty soon every single child will be able to exercise education choice."
Iowa, which hosted the event at which the report card was released, was ranked "most improved."
Burke joins today's episode of "The Daily Signal Podcast" to further discuss the Education Freedom Report Card, which three states ranked the lowest, and her advice to parents who might see the report card and want to make a change in their state.

26 min - Stories of America’s WWII Veterans and How a Rifle Became a Microphone
Andrew Biggio was excited to show his neighbor, a WWII veteran, the M1 Garand rifle he had recently purchased. The weapon was the most common rifle used in WWII, and Biggio thought his elderly neighbor would appreciate holding the gun.
“When I put that rifle into his hands and he raised it into his shoulder and started waving it around the room and pointing and smiling, and we talked about the Battle of Okinawa for like three hours,” Biggio, a Marine veteran himself, recounts.
Biggio was in awe of the stories his elderly neighbor had just shared with him. The rifle had not only triggered memories in the veteran's mind, but acted like a microphone, propelling the man to describe his war experiences in detail.
Biggio asked his neighbor to sign the rifle becasue he wanted to remember the stories he had just been told, and this gave Biggio the idea to find other WWII veterans and ask them to sign the M1 Garand rifle.
Today, “I have 320 names on that rifle,” Biggio says. “You can't even see the wooden stock. The whole rifle's full of white ink names.”
But the majority of the soldiers who have held the rifle have done much more than signed it, they described their war stories in detail while grasping the weapon, stories which Biggio has compiled into two book.
His first book, “The Rifle: Combat Stories from America's Last WWII Veterans, Told Through an M1 Garand,” was released in 2021 but could not hold all veteran stories. In September, Biggio released the project’s second edition, “The Rifle 2: Back to the Battlefield.”
Biggio joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to share some of the stories of the WWII veterans he has had the privilege of meeting and writing about.

12 min - Rep. Julia Letlow: Why We Need a Parents Bill of Rights
Parents should have the right to know what their children are being taught in school and to have their voices heard when they have concerns.
That’s why Rep. Julia Letlow, R-La., introduced the Parents Bill of Rights.
“It's actually appalling to me ... that we have to have a Parents Bill of Rights, but in today's age, it's absolutely necessary, because parents always deserve a seat at the table when it comes to their child's education,” Letlow says.
The House passed the bill in March without a single Democrat supporting the measure. The Senate has yet to bring the Parents Bill of Rights to the floor for a vote.
“I know there's been some interest from my Senate colleagues on the other side, but I'm hopeful that one of them will come forward and take it up,” Letlow says.
The Louisiana congresswoman joins “The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss why a Parents Bill of Rights is needed. She also weighs in on the dismantling of the Department of Education, and why President Joe Biden’s student-loan forgiveness efforts are not the answer to young people’s college debt.
