"Would you like fries with that?" Trump worked the McDonald's fryer and drive-thru today. Is there anything else to talk about? Well, yes... My colleague Matt Boyle has an exclusive interview with the former president -- we'll air it today!
Also: Obamacare enrollment deadlines are approaching again. Democrats say Trump wants to get rid of it; Trump says he had to save it and actually made it better. With costs going up... what's the real story? We'll discuss health care.
We'll also talk about the media -- what's going on? Bret Baier's Fox News interview was one thing, but... are the mainstream media actually giving up on Kamala Harris? How are things shaping up, with just over two weeks to go?
Finally, we'll talk about Israel. Ordinary soldiers on a routine training mission took down Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar this past week. Could there any greater justice? And Hezbollah is in the crosshairs... where are Biden/Harris on this?
Special guests:
Matt Boyle - DC/political editor, Breitbart News, on Trump interview
Chris Faddis - president of Solidarity HealthShare, on Obamcare costs
Tim Graham - executive editor of NewsBusters, on the media
Pierre Rehov - filmmaker of "Pogrom(s)," on the killing of Hamas's Sinwar
Tune in: 7-10 p.m. ET, 4-7 p.m. PT

The story of Noah is familiar; the details, less so.
Noah is often seen as an ambivalent figure. He was righteous -- but only for his generation. What was his deficiency?
One answer suggests itself: knowing that the world was about to be flooded, he built an Ark for the animals and for his own family -- but did not try to save anyone else or to convince them to repent and change their ways (the prophet Jonah, later, would share that reluctance).
Abraham, later, would set himself apart by arguing with God -- with the Lord Himself! -- against the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, saying that they should be saved if there were enough righteous people to be found (there were not).
Still, Noah was good enough -- and sometimes, that really is sufficient to save the world. We don't need heroes every time -- just ordinary decency.
Hi all -- as I noted last month, I'm going to be closing down my Locals page, at least for tips and subscriptions -- I may keep the page up and the posts as well, but I'm no longer going to be accepting any kind of payment.
Look for cancelation in the very near future. Thank you for your support!
An interesting weekend -- one of the last of Daylight Savings Time -- in which there is much to celebrate, much to contemplate, and a bit to worry about.
The Gaza peace deal is shaky, but holding, after the living hostages returned; the shutdown is still going on, with no end in sight; the China trade war is heating up; and the confrontation with Venezuela continues to escalate.
The "No Kings" protest was a dud, despite the media's attempt to inflate it. What I find fascinating is that the Democrats have basically stolen the rhetoric and the imagery of the Tea Party protests, circa 2009. They claim they are defending the Constitution -- just like the Tea Party did.
On the one hand, this is good. How wonderful to have a political system in which both sides, bitterly opposed though they are, articulate differences through the Constitution -- and not, as in so many other countries, outside it.
On the other, this is sheer hypocrisy for the Democrats. Not only did they malign the Tea Party as ...
