He's joined by Byron York, the chief political correspondent for the Washington Examiner, who shares his insights on the upcoming elections. They discuss the potential blue wave, the impact of the Trump factor, and the latest polls. But it's not all politics - they also talk about the Cornell 7 case, where a group of young men are accused of rape, and the rush to judgment that's surrounding it. And, of course, no episode would be complete without some critter news, including a report on a cat-stealing ring in Vietnam.
The midterms are heating up, and the stakes are high. Byron York shares his analysis of the latest polls, which show a potential blue wave, but also notes that the Senate is still up for grabs.

But first, they dive into some critter news, including a report on a cat-stealing ring in Vietnam.
