Summary

Democrats and Republicans are locked in fierce redistricting battles nationwide—maneuvers that could shift the balance of power in the upcoming midterm elections. Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY) joins the Rundown to discuss these high-stakes redistricting fights, what impact the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ may have on voters ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, and how the rise of progressive Democrats may influence crime across the country. Earlier this year, National Guard troops were sent to Los Angeles. Now, they're in Washington, D.C., and hundreds have been arrested following President Trump's declaration of a public safety emergency and deployment of the National Guard. Meanwhile, the Justice Department's investigation into whether crime statistics were manipulated to suggest a decline in crime in our nation's capital—a claim denied by city officials. Fox News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins the podcast with the latest on the President’s D.C. crackdown, Russia-Ukraine peace progress, and redistricting. Plus, commentary from former congressman and host of The Jason In The House podcast, Jason Chaffetz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
