    Common Ground: Crafting A Bipartisan Approach To China

    Earlier this week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken declared America's support for China's economic growth, as long as China prioritizes treating American workers and businesses fairly. However, after repeatedly catching China betraying the US -- how should we move forward working with a country that has proven again and again that they're not to be trusted?

    Congressman John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) discuss what they believe is the best route to finding a bipartisan approach to working with China. They also discuss where they stand on the pro-Palestinian protests happening on campuses across the country from different sides of the aisle.

    Victims Of Radiation Poisoning Fight For Compensation

    After countless Americans contracted cancer and serious illnesses following efforts to build the atomic bomb, the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act was born in 1990 -- providing payments for those impacted by toxic chemicals.

    Bret sits down with lawmakers and Americans whose lives continue to be impacted by the Manhattan Project -- despite six decades having passed since the program's conclusion.

    All-Star Panel: How Pro-Palestinian Outrage Impacts President Biden In the Polls

    Though the Israel-Hamas War has been raging since Hamas' attack on October 7th, there's been a simultaneous surge of pro-Palestinian protests at major universities nationwide in the past week -- with many signs pointing to the demonstrations being connected.

    Common Ground: Capitol Hill Divide Over Funding Our Allies

    House Speaker Mike Johnson has unveiled plans to pass foreign aid bills in the House -- with votes on bills funding Israel, Ukraine, and the Indo-Pacific set to take place over the weekend. However, with a growing divide in Congress over how the U.S. should move forward to support allies overseas, will the bills garner enough support to move forward? 

    Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS) & Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) discuss the importance of the Iranian attack in the Middle East, why they both support passing foreign aid bills despite being on opposite sides of the aisle, and why our next steps will impact how other countries view America on the world stage.

    All-Star Panel: Aid Bills Divide Congress & Escalation in the Middle East

    Israel is weighing what their response will be to a brazen attack from Iran over the weekend -- where over 300 missiles and drones were launched toward the country. Though President Biden remains steadfast in his loyalty to Israel, he continues to dissuade Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from committing any acts that could dangerously escalate tensions in the Middle East. 

    Meanwhile, here at home, former President Donald Trump's historic criminal trial begins in New York City and new aid bills pass on Capitol Hill that have Congress further divided.

    To discuss all of this and more, Bret is joined by Wall Street Editorial Board Member Bill McGurn, FOX News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar, and Democratic Strategist Leslie Marshall on this episode of Bret Baier's All-Star Panel.

    Common Ground: Sounding the Alarm On Defensive Spending Levels

    Earlier this week, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin told lawmakers why a $60 billion supplemental funding request to support Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan is an essential U.S. investment -- but with divided support on Ukraine aid, will it survive? And where do Democrats and Republicans stand on this issue and America's defense spending as a whole?

    Bret is joined by Senator Dan Sullivan (R-AK) and Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) to discuss how passing this supplemental would be a step toward prioritizing our nation's defense, why there should be nothing bipartisan about ensuring our nation is secure, and the ways this money would benefit the U.S. directly as opposed to just our allies.

    Common Ground: Exploring The Ethics Behind Electric Vehicles

    President Biden has stated his goal is to have 50% percent of all new vehicle sales be electric by 2030 -- but with electric vehicles making up less than 20% of overall car sales in 2024, how will Americans react to this push toward hybrids and EVs? And if a considerable number of Americans do go electric, how could that impact America's auto industry and the countless people employed by traditional car manufacturers?

    Bret is joined by Congressman John James (R-MI) and Congressman Don Davis (D-NC) to discuss their thoughts on President Biden's ambitious goal, how their constituents feel about the emergence of electric vehicles, and the potential pros and cons of creating a society primarily dependent on hybrids and EVs.
