John Zadrozny, deputy director of investigations at the America First Legal Foundation, joins the show to discuss how deep the collusion goes, and what it all means. We also cover these stories: Rep. Jackie Walorski, R-Ind., dies in a car accident. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suspends Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren over his refusal to enforce state laws restricting abortion or prohibiting gender-transition treatments such as mastectomies or cross-sex hormones for minors.
