As of early this morning, Wednesday November 6th, Donald J Trump has won the presidency of the United states of America. There are still several house and senate races that are up in the air, but conservative policy has won a decisive victory in this cycle.

A future Trump or Harris administration would take fundamentally different approaches to critical facets of American life. One such facet, an issue that has been at the forefront of both political campaigns, is the southern border.
Here to explain what to expect from a potential Harris or Trump administration on the border is Lora Ries, Director of the Border Security and Immigration Center at The Heritage Foundation.

Today, education as the key to self-advancement and a better life is still a principle held dear by Americans. But today, many families find the education that they desire for their children out of reach. Public school systems are often mired in bureaucracy and misplaced priorities, which puts political objectives over the wellbeing and education of children. In the absence of competition, academic outcomes are an afterthought. The values of conservative families are denigrated.
We at the Heritage Foundation believe that the best thing we can do for families is to give them choices. And the availability and quality of those choices seems to be on the minds of voters heading to the polls this November. Lindsey Burke is the Director of the Center of Education Policy here at the Heritage Foundation. She joins the podcast to explain.

Four presidents have been assassinated in office, and several (in office or not) have been wounded. All of these incidents took place decades, if not a century, ago. So it’s understandable that the second wounding of a president while not in office, that of Donald Trump in Butler Pennsylvania in July of this year, would have shaken the nation. Now, a mere two months later, a second assassination attempt against the former president has occurred.
Why are we seeing this happen now? Heritage Expert Lora Ries joins the podcast to explain.

Earlier this week, the Supreme Court ended its 2024 term by handing down landmark decisions in a number of key cases, including the all-important Trump v. United States. Left-wing pundits, members of Congress, and even President Biden were quick to make wild claims about the Court's ruling on presidential immunity, with some asserting the president is now free to arrest, deport, or even murder his political enemies. Could any of this be true? Is the president now empowered to use the military to commit heinous crimes?
That’s what the Left wants you to believe—because they want you to see the Supreme Court as illegitimate following a string of decisions that restore constitutional order and put power back in the hands of the people. So, what did the Court decide—and how will it affect you?
Vice President of the Heritage Institute for Constitutional Government John Malcolm sat down with guest host Cody Sargent, director of communications at Heritage Action, to restore some sanity to the conversation and break down the summer's biggest SCOTUS decisions.
