In this episode of The Bald Brad Show, The Biden administration on Wednesday sued the state of Arizona over its construction of a makeshift border wall using shipping containers and razor wire in order to prevent the flow of illegal immigrants -- with the administration claiming the state is trespassing on federal lands. The lawsuit, filed in district court, says that the installation of multi-ton shipping containers, welded shut and topped with razor wire, "damage[s] federal lands, threaten[s] public safety, and impede[s the ability of federal agencies and officials, including law enforcement personnel, to perform their official duties." The lawsuit is the latest back-and-forth between Gov. Doug Ducey and the Biden administration's over Ducey's decision earlier this year to fill gaps in the border wall with shipping containers. The move was taken in response to the ongoing crisis at the border which saw more than 2.3 million migrant encounters along the border in FY 2022. Furthermore, Twitter influencers and politicians on both sides of the aisle have united in calls to "ban TikTok" after lawmakers proposed bipartisan legislation to stop the most popular app in the world from operating in the U.S.  Florida Senator Marco Rubio spearheaded the push to ban TikTok, arguing in a press statement Tuesday that the reasons to bar the app were easily apparent and widely agreed upon: "From the FBI Director to FCC Commissioners to cybersecurity experts, everyone has made clear the risk of TikTok being used to spy on Americans."  The legislation would effectively demonetize any app in China's orbit and is titled "Averting the National Threat of Internet Surveillance, Oppressive Censorship and Influence, and Algorithmic Learning by the Chinese Communist Party Act," or in short, the "ANTI-SOCIAL CCP Act."

The United States opened its embassy in Jerusalem earlier today as part of its formal recognition of the city as the capital of Israel. Today also happens to be the 70th anniversary of President Truman’s recognition of Israeli sovereignty. While U.S. and Israeli lawmakers celebrated, thousands of Palestinians protested at the border of the Gaza Strip. Israeli forces used deadly force on Palestinian groups they claimed were trying to plant explosives. Over 50 people were killed and many more were wounded. Will we see more violence? What impact will it have on prospects for peace in the Middle East? Dr. Michael Makovsky, president and CEO of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America, talks about the potential geopolitical consequences for both the Israelis and Palestinians. Former FCC Commissioner Michael Copps discusses how Democrats can capitalize on the issue of net neutrality at the ballot box in November.

It seems almost impossible these days to think of an issue which inspires universal consensus from both Republicans and Democrats. However, the Trump administration’s blueprint for nationalizing the 5G mobile network—revealed in a leaked White House memo—is being panned by officials across the federal government. Julian Sanchez, senior fellow at the Cato Institute, said the opposition to the 5G nationalization is almost unanimous, stating, “It’s not just Ajit Pai. It’s the entire FCC Board of Commissioners, Republicans and Democrats. All put out statements saying we don’t think this is a good idea.” Sanchez discusses why the FCC and so many others around Capitol Hill are opposed to nationalizing the 5G network. Michael and Rick discuss a Washington Monthly study showing that voter participation increases when you allow more people to vote from home.
