FOX News contributor and George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley joins to discuss the D.C. Circuit's ruling allowing the Secretary of Defense to set aside 9/11 plea deals, explaining how past torture complicates evidence, why a 2028 trial is achievable, and why the case belonged in civilian court from the start.

What began weeks ago as student-led demonstrations over classroom conditions has escalated into widespread riots involving a range of political and ideological factions across France over the weekend. Over 2,500 people have been arrested and damages have exceeded $1B after the protests spiraled out of control. There seems to be up to 54 organizations, only 16 are student groups, and the others include communist groups, labor unions and political activists in the network promoting the riots and protests in France.

FOX’s Jonathan Savage speaks with Lance Hunter, Professor of International Relations at Augusta University and expert in political violence, who says while the protests may have started with legitimate political concerns, they open the door to criminal elements with a more malicious agenda.

Debates over gun violence in the U.S. often miss the mark due to political gridlock and common misconceptions surrounding the issue. Author and host of the Revisionist History podcast Malcolm Gladwell discusses insights from his book, The American Way of Killing: The Invention of an Epidemic, addressing misunderstandings about assault rifle bans and mass shooting statistics. He argues that high U.S. homicide rates stem primarily from under-policing compared to European nations, how modern medical advancements have reduced firearm fatalities, and traces the Second Amendment's roots to 18th-century slave patrols—advocating for a shift from federal gun control theater toward effective homicide prevention and state-level policy.
