Summary

Ben shares his thoughts on James Gunn's Superman and explains why the latest installment falls short of the character's inspirational nature.

The Senator also details his Oklahoma ranch life and being a father to six kids. Then, FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains what listeners can expect from the Senate's vote-a-rama on the rescissions bill, as well as the divisions caused by the Jeffrey Epstein case.
