powerful argument on behalf of our nation.

It can be easy to take our national parks for granted, but behind their natural
beauty, there lies generations of leaders who have fought tooth and nail to preserve them. Those efforts are still ongoing today.

Congressmen Bruce Westerman (R-AR) and Jared Huffman (D-CA) sat down with Bret to discuss their bipartisan bill aimed at protecting our public lands - the Great American Outdoors Act 250 - and explain why they believe our national parks are still worth protecting today. The two also weigh in on the rise of the democratic socialist movement and how they plan to work together in the future.

Bush Karl Rove, and FOX News Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram  join Bret to clarify the confusion over the Iran negotiations and forecast how the conflict, along with the Democratic party’s drift towards socialism, will factor into this year’s midterm elections.

A deal has been reached to end the Iran conflict, though what it entails remains unclear. Meanwhile at home, the Democratic party continues its drift towards Democratic Socialism, as funding for a key government surveillance program fails to secure support from Congress.

FOX News Senior Political Analyst Juan Williams, Host of ‘The Big Ben Show,’ Ben Domenech, and FOX News Washington Correspondent Mark Meredith join Bret to discuss the pros and cons of what we know about the Iran deal so far, also weighing in on FISA’s expiration and the normalization of an ideology once considered too extreme for the mainstream.
