    Common Ground: Fighting For U.S. Farmland
    Jun 27 2024
    The United States agriculture sector continues to struggle as water scarcity impacts various states and the need for a functional immigration system intensifies. As farmers lie at the heart of America -- between fueling our economy and our families -- Democrats and Republicans alike are committed to ensuring long-term sustainability and security of the U.S. Food system. Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) and Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS) discuss the farming issues crossing both of their borders, why having an efficient immigration system is intricately connected with farming in America, and why the purchasing of American farmland by China is also raising red flags for lawmakers.

FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram, Founding Editor of The Washington Free Beacon Matthew Continetti, and Democratic Pollster Carly Cooperman discuss the preparations being made by both presidential candidates before they take the debate stage, and how they believe President Biden & former President Trump are working to win over both Independents and double haters alike.

    Common Ground: Supporting America's Heroes
    Jun 13 2024
    The West Point class of 2004 had the highest killed-in-action rate of any West Point class since Vietnam -- with three graduates losing their lives to suicide after returning from war. This is a big reason why Congressman Pat Ryan (D-NY) and Congressman John James (R-MI), two members of that West Point class, are committed to using their power in the House to ensure veterans are honored and cared for the way they deserve. With the 80th anniversary of D-Day passing last week, Congressman James & Congressman Ryan discuss what honoring this anniversary means for them, how their bond at West Point has stayed strong despite them being on opposite sides of the aisle, and the ways their new legislation, the Veterans Entry to Apprenticeship Act, support veterans after returning from war.

  • One On One: Could Marijuana Replace Prescription Drugs In America?

    One On One: Could Marijuana Replace Prescription Drugs In America?
    Jun 11 2024
    According to the Society for the Study of Addiction, more Americans are using marijuana than drinking alcohol daily, marking the first time cannabis has outpaced alcohol in the U.S. One particular demographic showing a vast increase in marijuana use is seniors over the age of 65, who are using medical marijuana for pain relief. With federal hurdles preventing a great deal of seniors from accessing medical marijuana, could this growth in popularity lead to federal changes surrounding the drug? Bret hears from medical marijuana users and officials like Robert Kent, who worked in the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, to discuss the potential reclassification of marijuana from a Schedule I substance to a Schedule III substance and how increasing medical cannabis use could help fight the opioid crisis.

    Identifying D-Day's Fallen Through DNA Technology
    Jun 6 2024
    When nearly 73,000 U.S. troops landed in Normandy on June 6th, 1944, there was no way to prepare for the gruesome battle that would ensue. On that day 80 years ago, more than 2,500 soldiers were killed or went missing in action -- with hundreds being left unidentified. Fortunately, new DNA technology is giving the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency the power to change that. Director of the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency Kelly McKeague sits down to discuss how new DNA matching technology has allowed the agency to positively identify at least seven soldiers who lost their lives on D-Day and what these discoveries mean to families.
