Summary

Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) said on Tuesday that he supports the Senate moving forward with a Supreme Court nominee for President Trump to replace the late Justice Ruth Base Ginsburg. Martha MacCallum, host of "The Story" on the Fox News Channel weighs in on Senator Romney's decision to back the Supreme Court vote, how likely it is the President's nominee will get confirmed this year, what this does to an already contentious 2020 election and more. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, over 200,000 veterans say the use of 'burn pits' at military bases has caused them severe health problems. A new bill, which recently got the support of comedian Jon Stewart, would require the V.A. to provide health and disability services to soldiers who may have been exposed to the toxic fumes from the incineration of military waste. Dana Perino, the anchor of Fox News' "The Daily Briefing", talks to Matt Betley, an author and former Marine officer, who says the government must do more for vets like him who are suffering due to burn pits. Plus, commentary by syndicated columnist and author of "America's Expiration Date," Cal Thomas. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
