Welcome to today's podcast, sponsored by Hillsdale College, all things Hillsdale at Hillsdale. I encourage you to take advantage of the many free online courses there. And, of course, I'll listen to the Hillsdale Dialogues, all of them at Hugh for Hillsdale.com or just Google Apple, iTunes, and Hillsdale. Morning and morning, and evening, Grace. Welcome to the big weekend pod, America. I'm Hugh Hewitt. We had a lot of fun this weekend talking with our regular lineup,

John Ellis of news items. And you get news items by going to news items in your Google machine

and add John Ellis. It will take you right there. The best substack available. It just

It's not the end of the world.

Not even that significant a decision, as I will argue with Matt and Ben today.

But I will play for you the president's

highlights. I'll call them highlights. After the Ben Dominic interview, stick around if you missed

President Trump's Friday press conference because it was a doozy and then just settle back and enjoy.
