Summary
Greg Abbott creates a supply chain catastrophe at the southern border and it backfires in pretty spectacular fashion. Brian interviews Beto O’Rourke about Greg Abbott’s stunt, and the state of his race against Abbott this November. And Democratic Senate candidate from Kentucky, Charles Booker, joins to discuss Kentucky’s new abortion law that banned all abortions in the state, how well Rand Paul represents the state, and whether it’s even possible for a Democrat to win in Kentucky.
