It is a critical stage in the 2024 Presidential campaign, as this week, President Biden and former President Trump are due to square off in the CNN Presidential Debate. It is the first time since 1892 that each of the candidates will have a term of service in the White House to point to on the campaign trail. Speculation remains about who former President Trump will select as his running mate with North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, and Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as the leading contenders. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) joins FOX News Senior Correspondent Mike Emanuel for a conversation on this and more.
Microplastics are in pretty much everything: from the environment, the little beads in your hand sanitizer, and even inside your body. Most synthetic fabrics like polyester, nylon, and spandex are formed from microplastics and pollute the ocean when washing machines drain. However, Julia Yan has developed a solution and co-founded Baleena, a company that developed an award-winning filter for washing machines. Yan joins the podcast to break down exactly what microplastics are, how people can limit microplastic pollution, and describe how Baleena’s filter works.
Plus, commentary from former U.S. State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus.
