Athletic programs sit at the forefront of colleges and universities, generating extreme revenue and creating a vast fan base. In recent years, changes to the transfer portal and the addition of name, image and likeness (NIL) deals, have drastically altered the landscape of college athletics. What will this new era mean for student athletes and college sports overall?

NCAA commissioners of the four major conferences, Greg Sankey of the Southeastern Conference, Jim Phillips of the Atlantic Coast Conference, Tony Petite of the Big Ten, and Brett Yourmark of the Big 12, discuss why they are seeking the support of Congress to lobby for federal NIL guidelines.

Wall Street is in the midst of another rollercoaster week after President Trump enacted wide-ranging tariffs on countries around the world. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio all took to the airwaves to pitch a skeptical public and markets on the plan. Meanwhile, President Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office on Monday to discuss the war in Gaza and a potential new trade agreement with the United States. Bret breaks it all down with FOX News Radio Political Correspondent Jared Halpern, Editor-at-Large at The Spectator Ben Domenech, and former State Department Spokeswoman Marie Harf.

President Trump has rolled out 'reciprocal tariffs' on dozens of countries, leading to mixed reactions on Capitol Hill. Though many lawmakers agree that this move supports the production of goods in the United States and will balance select trade relationships, there are concerns that imposing tariffs on U.S. allies could cause more harm than good.

As a result, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) and Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) are proposing a bipartisan joint resolution that blocks tariffs on Canada -- created primarily due to their belief that trade policy should be set by Congress, not emergency declarations. They also discuss their thoughts on the President's tariff plan as a whole, and the economic impacts they could have.

April 2nd is "Liberation Day," a phrase President Trump gave to the day he plans to roll out 'reciprocal tariffs' on dozens of countries, as well as a 25% tariff on all auto imports. The president remains confident that this move will reshape trade relationships and incentivize corporations to operate within the U.S. -- two productive measures he believes will far outweigh any temporary price increases Americans may see.

To discuss this, record low numbers at the southern border, and special elections in Wisconsin and Florida, Bret speaks with FOX News Senior White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich, Co-founder of South & Hill Strategies Colin Reed, and FOX News Political Analyst Juan Williams on this week's All-Star Panel.

Questions about what role Elon Musk and the DOGE team are playing within the Trump administration have been swirling since President Trump's return to the White House.

In an exclusive interview, Bret Baier sits down with Elon Musk and seven key members of DOGE to ask these questions — including how they plan to reduce the deficit by $1 trillion, provide more government transparency, and what their most astonishing findings have been thus far.

For years now, Americans across the country have grappled with high gas prices. As the Trump administration aims to prioritize this concern, focusing on ways to unleash American energy and lower prices at the pump, lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are joining him in the fight. 

Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE) and Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) join Bret to discuss how they're working together to pass legislation that allows for the year-round sale of E15, a fuel blend with 15% ethanol that would benefit consumers by offering cheaper fuel and helping American farmers. They also share their reactions to the Signal chat leak that took place earlier this week.

As of November 2024, U.S. street drug deaths were dropping at an unprecedented rate according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, as fatal overdoses due to dangerous substances like fentanyl and xylazine, known as ‘tranq,’ continue to drop in the U.S. — many Americans are curious to know what lawmakers are doing on Capitol Hill that may be contributing to these promising numbers. 

Bret revisits a conversation with Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA), on how their bipartisan bill, the ‘STOP TRANQ Act,’ set out to address this crisis, especially with lifesaving medications like Narcan being ineffective on substances like xylazine.

It's been a pivotal 24 hours in foreign policy, as a call between President Trump and Russian President Putin led to a crucial step toward peace, while a temporary ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas is called off. Additionally, here at home, the Trump Administration is continuing to defend its decision to deport Venezuelan migrants tied to the Tren De Aragua gang — claiming the action made under the Alien Enemies Act of 1789 did not actively defy court orders issued by U.S. District Judge James Boasberg.

To discuss these major developments, FOX News Contributor Katie Pavlich, FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram, and host of 'The Richard Fowler Show' and FOX News Contributor Richard Fowler join Bret on today's All-Star Panel.

Today, former Senator John Breaux (D-LA) and Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) honor the life and legacy of the former Senator and their dear friend and discuss how they're trying to take a page out of his book when it comes to repairing the deep split dividing both parties.
