Summary

Democrats had their moment last week as they held the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois. Vice President Harris took the stage on the final night to lay out her vision for America, and to attack former President Trump on foreign policy, abortion, and the border crisis. As American voters assess the political landscape with 10 weeks to go until the election, the Middle East is seeing more violence with Israel launching pre-emptive attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, Mike Turner (R-OH-10) joins the Rundown to discuss the third anniversary of the United States' withdrawal from Afghanistan, how that decision destabilized the region, and he shares his reaction to the DNC and the election moving forward. It's that time of year. College students are heading back to campus. However, for a lot of those seeking higher education, they may not end up where they originally planned. In 2024, nearly two dozen colleges closed in the United States, leaving students high and dry with nowhere to go. Due to lower enrollment, many colleges nationwide are struggling to pay their bills and keep their doors open. Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, Beth Akers, joins to discuss why closures are becoming more prevalent, the student loan crisis, and the growing popularity of trade schools.   Plus, commentary from Ramsey Solutions financial expert, and host of "The Rachel Cruze Show", Rachel Cruze.
