Republicans, Socialists and the 2026 Choice

Jason Chaffetz fills in for Sean Hannity and frames the 2026 midterms around two major questions: whether Republicans will actually deliver on the agenda they campaigned on, and how far left Democrats are willing to go. He argues that President Trump reshaped the Republican Party around border security, voter integrity, and working-class priorities, but warns that Senate Republicans must show more urgency, especially on the SAVE Act. Chaffetz contrasts that with what he describes as a Democratic Party being pulled toward socialism by figures like Mamdani, AOC, Bernie Sanders, and other Democratic Socialists. Congressman Pat Fallon joins to discuss China’s influence in American universities, legislation to restrict federal funding for schools tied to Chinese Communist Party programs, and the need to protect sensitive research. Chaffetz also criticizes California’s proposed wealth tax and warns that high-tax, anti-business policies will drive people and companies out of blue states.
