Summary

Earlier this week, former President Donald Trump announced his official stance on abortion, saying this issue “should be left to the states” instead of supporting federal regulation. Abortion access and rights remain a top issue for Democrats heading to the polls in November. Former President Trump’s statement has spurred disagreement among other pro-life Republicans, such as Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who says he prefers a federal ban at 15 weeks of pregnancy. Main Street Columnist for the Wall Street Journal and former Chief Speechwriter for President George W. Bush, William McGurn, joins the Rundown to discuss why the former President’s decision on abortion policy was a "wise one," the merit of states deciding this issue, and why he doubts it will be a winning issue for Democrats. Can someone staying in your home claim “squatter’s rights?” The issue has gotten national attention after high-profile cases of squatting went viral on Instagram and TikTok. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently signed a bill that he says will effectively stop squatting throughout the state, in a move that strictly limits the legal rights afforded to squatters. Florida Attorney Kevin Fabrikant joins the podcast to discuss the legal rights that squatters have under various laws, the involved process of evicting a squatter, and how the new Florida law seeks to remedy this housing issue. Plus, commentary by New York Post columnist Karol Markowicz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
