If conservatives want to win the 2028 presidential race, the first step is winning back the Arizona governor's mansion in 2026. Charlie thinks the man to do that is Rep. Andy Biggs. Biggs joins Charlie to discuss Trump's endorsement, the big beautiful bill, and more. Then, Hillsdale's Dr. Thomas West talks abut the Founders' vision for birthright citizenship, before that vision was distorted by centuries of progressive activism and lies.
