On this week’s edition, U.S. House Speaker MIKE JOHNSON (R-LA) sits down with TONY PERKINS at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. urging Americans to “pray for an end of this bitter partisanship” which has led to the month-long federal government shutdown; PHILIP WEGMANN, White House correspondent for Real Clear Politics gives his assessment on the standoff, adding “it is anyone’s guess when the shutdown will end.”

Salem Radio Network host MIKE GALLAGHER joins us from Jerusalem as the IDF ramps-up responses to Hamas intransigence; Congressman SCOTT PERRY (R-PA) offers a warning that “tensions around the world are coming to our doorstep in America.”
