## Resource

Glenn kicks off the show with his former co-host and host of "Predictable" Stu Burguiere, who, shockingly, has some good news about Republicans’ chances in the midterms. Stu breaks down how recent redistricting wins for the GOP are setting up a high chance of success in the midterms. Glenn and Stu also discuss the anti-Spencer Pratt ad put out by the Left that may actually help the Los Angeles mayoral candidate. Glenn reacts to the infuriating update on the SAVE Act given by Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.). Strategy Risks managing director and journalist Melissa Chen joins to discuss what we can expect from President Trump’s visit to China. Glenn and Melissa also discuss the AI race and how close China is to catching up. Author of “China’s War on Faith” Ambassador Sam Brownback joins to discuss how China is deliberately targeting faith in China and throughout the globe. Musician Winston Marshall joins to discuss U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and whether or not he will resign. Glenn and Winston also discuss what is needed to bring the U.K. back to sanity.
