Summary
The economy has long defined how Americans vote, but could foreign policy carry more weight in this year’s midterms? As the conflict with Iran escalates and disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz impact the global oil supply, President Trump’s foreign policy is facing a major political test. Republican strategist and South and Hill Strategies co-founder Colin Reed joins FOX's Alex Hogan to discuss what the latest polling on U.S. military strikes in Iran could mean at the ballot box, and how the GOP is balancing "America First" isolationism with global leadership. Public health officials are facing a growing surge of foodborne illness cases across multiple states, raising concerns about the difficulty of tracking down hardy, environmental pathogens. Former CDC Director & Senior Fellow for Biosecurity and Public Health Policy at the Heritage Foundation, Dr. Robert Redfield joins to discuss a widespread Cyclospora outbreak hitting Michigan and Ohio, the inner workings of this unique parasite that the inner workings of a unique parasite that cannot be passed human-to-human or easily washed away, and how a decline in public health surveillance funding hinders the government’s ability to pinpoint exact contamination sources to protect consumers.
