Summary

Turmoil continues in Eastern Europe as Russia’s war on Ukraine enters the summer. The Biden administration has insisted upon its unwavering support for Ukraine, but a growing number of Republicans running for the White House have called into question how long the United States can continue to aid the nation in its fight against Russia. FOX News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar joins to discuss the 2024 candidates’ positions on the war, why the Republican field has varying stances on further aid to Ukraine, and how foreign policy can factor into who becomes the Republican nominee for President. The United States of America turns 247 years old this Fourth of July. The country has a history of unique traditions from fireworks to concerts, and pomp and parade, many gather in Washington D.C. to celebrate the nation's independence. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to talk about the Capitol's traditions, why Independence Day was not considered a federal holiday until the 1930s, and debates why we should celebrate on July 2nd, not July 4th.
