Summary

On Monday President Biden hosted Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi in the Oval Office, where he announced that the U.S. combat mission in Iraq will conclude at the end of 2021. The President adding that American troops will continue to train and assist Iraqi forces in the fight against ISIS. Meanwhile, the timetable is still set for military operations in Afghanistan to be over by August. So is the war on terror finally coming to an end? Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) weighs in on what it means for America's foreign policy. It has been over two weeks since the Texas House Democrats fled their state for Washington, DC to prevent quorum and block Republican voting legislation from being passed into law. They also appealed to Congress to take action protecting voting rights at the federal level. Back home, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has warned he plans to arrest the Democrats who left the state and assured the public he will continue calling special sessions until the voting rights legislation is put to a vote. One of those State Representatives, Democrat Harold Dutton Jr., joins to discuss why he has returned to Texas, the conversations he has had with Republicans about his issues with the legislation and the importance of election integrity and ensuring that voting laws make it easier for Texans to vote. Plus, commentary by Guy Benson, host of the Guy Benson Show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
