What A Democratic House Would Prioritize

If Democrats win the House, Vance predicts impeachment will dominate rather than bipartisan legislation.
He argues Democratic unity centers on opposition to Trump, not shared policy goals.

INSIGHT

Preventing Iranian nuclearization is framed as preventing global proliferation and future quagmires.
Vance stresses diplomacy first but keeps military options open to enforce the red line.

INSIGHT

Megyn Kelly is joined by Vice President JD Vance to discuss the most absurd parts of Washington DC, the ego of politicians, Trump Derangement Syndrome of the media, the huge drop in the murder rate and crime in America, the pace of deportations, Don Lemon's arrest, Tom Homan's new tactics in Minnesota, the challenge of deporting all illegal migrants, what happens if the GOP loses the House in the midterms, how hating Trump and the right unifies Democrats, what the Trump administration does next in Iran, why they will avoid another Middle East "quagmire," what happens next with Greenland, Europe's decline and a "new world order," efforts to fix election integrity, the GOP's messaging problem about the economy and affordability, how his family is adjusting to life in DC, and more. Then Ashleigh Banfield, host of Drop Dead Serious, to discuss the latest details in the suspected abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, why investigators may be zeroing in on her son-in-law as a "prime suspect," all the strange evidence at the home, the importance of the 2 a.m. window tied to Guthrie's disappearance, why police are looking closely into her family, the key details of the missing or destroyed camera footage, and more. Then James Fitzgerald, co-host of "Cold Red Podcast," to discuss the crucial pieces of information at the disturbing Guthrie crime scene, what the police actions mean so far, the focus of the investigation from what we can tell, and more.
