Summary
As political focus shifts toward upcoming midterm primaries and significant legal news, key congressional and Senate races across the country are heating up with mounting controversies. Shannon Bream, FOX News chief legal analyst and FOX News Sunday anchor, joins to discuss the growing opposition research surrounding Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Plattner, primary results out of New Jersey and Iowa, and the confirmation outlook for President Trump's Acting Attorney General nominee, Todd Blanche. Data centers face strong opposition from critics concerned about environmental impacts and energy costs, but proponents say they are critical for national security. Retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant General David Deptula is dean of the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies. He joins FOX's Lucas Tomlinson to discuss the intersection of data centers and national security, as well as the potential risks of blocking their development.
