Meet Rob Davies, a member of our VIP Gold club as well as a candidate for Pennsylvania's state senate. Davies gives us the lowdown on voter priorities in the Keystone State, discusses the reasons why the GOP needs to keep control of the legislature, and why voters tell him that election security is still a big issue in PA. We also talk about Mehmet Oz's Senate campaign and why Davies thinks he's being underestimated.

The latest economic report shows a second successive quarter of contraction. Duane Patterson and I parse out the data, discuss the Biden administration's dancing around the word "recession," and why this won't be the last bad economic indicator for Biden and Democrats. We also wonder if Manchin double-crossed Mitch McConnell and whether Chuck Schumer can hold his new reconciliation deal together once Kyrsten Sinema and House progressives take a hard look at it.

How have federal mandates on racial classifications changed American law, policy, and ethnic tensions? David Bernstein discusses his new book, "Classified: The Untold Story of Racial Classification in America," and how the unintended consequences of these policies have done damage to communities. 

Plus, my review of the day's top stories and my commentary for Townhall!

Andrew Malcolm and I review the top media-related stories of the week, plus analyze where Biden can go next. Will a recession drop him further in the polls, or will the media try to tar Republicans with it instead?

Could the collapse of Elon Musk's Twitter bid have been predicted? Edward Niedermeyer, author of "Ludicrous: The Unvarnished Story of Tesla Motors," breaks down the myths and realities surrounding America's richest industrialist. 

Plus, I look at predictions for the midterms and remind people that the environment in this cycle is very different than we have experienced in decades.

With Joe Biden's presidency collapsing, why have we seen no changes in his Cabinet? What does that say about his policies – and those of the Democrats? AJ Kaufman and I discuss the implications of that, the weird attacks on Joe Manchin, and why Republicans need to worry about the upcoming primaries in Missouri and Arizona.

What do a Minneapolis theater, a Portland lesbian bar, and a made-up sport all have in common? 

Duane Patterson and I discuss cancel culture and the nihilism of the left on display in Minneapolis with Dave Chappelle's show cancellation. We also discuss generic-ballot concerns and why a new AARP poll from a bipartisan partnership shows Republicans still in good position for a midterm wipeout.

Last week, John Ondrasik traveled to Kyiv to record "Can One Man Save the World" with the Ukrainian Orchestra in front of the ruined Mriya, a symbol of national pride before the war. John tells me about his experience in Ukraine and Poland, the value of the support of his family, and updates us on the situation in Afghanistan.

Mark Cavaliere of Southwest Coalition for Life tells us about a demonstration against the relocation of Jackson Women's Health from Mississippi to Las Cruces – and the surprise they have waiting for the abortion mill. Andrew Malcolm and I break down the implications of an early declaration by Donald Trump for the 2024 cycle, plus the latest Gallup survey on media credibility. I review the morning's top stories at Hot Air as well!

Elizabeth Warren paints pro-life pregnancy support centers as a malevolent presence. What's the truth? Peter Ingemi works with such centers in Massachusetts and says his state's senator is dead wrong. He's covering the true story at DaTechBuyBlog.blog. Plus, I give a breakdown of this morning's top stories!
