In a little less than a month, the first primaries of 26 leading up to the midterms in November will be contested. What are the issues that will be center stage as candidates seek to carry the flags for their parties? You've got the state of the union coming up in just two weeks. That'll be a nice chance for the president to really hit the reset button, refocus the national attention or where he wants to take the country over these next few months and command that bullet pulpit like he has the ability. to do it unlike anybody else. And Lisa Brady, the head of the largest health care system in the U.S., the VA, says they're working on generational change. What we're changing and what we're doing is about a veteran getting the help that they need and not about an organization. I think that's what's been overshadowed. We speak with VA's secretary Doug Susan Collins. And I'm Riley Gaines. I've got the final word on the Fox News rundown.

In just a little less than a month on March 3rd, three states, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Texas will hold primary elections. Mississippi will follow March 10th, Illinois, March 17th. It's the start of the run-up to the midterms, just as President Trump said from the Oval Office that the federal government should have more of a say. in running elections. Take a look at Detroit. Take a look at Pennsylvania. Take a look at Philadelphia. You go take a look at Atlanta. Look at some of the places that are horrible corruption on elections. And the federal government should not allow that. The federal government should get involved. This is in line with raids of Georgia and Puerto Rico election facilities to reexamine 2020 election results. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was involved with both. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took time during a briefing to say that this all happened because election security is essential to national security. And as the director of national intelligence, it is a part of Ms. Tulsi Gabbard's role to make sure that American elections are free of foreign interference. Still, it seems that as both parties look forward to the midterms this November, there is more than a passing interest in relitigating 2020. Regardless of the year. Voters are always more interested in the next election than the last one. Colin Reed is a Republican strategist and the co-founder of South and Hill strategies. And this president, this Republican Party knows that. And they know that's where this November 2026 elections will be shaping up. At the same time, there are concerns about voter integrity that remains one of the principles that the party and its leaders like to talk about. And there's a legislative afoot right now in Congress that could and might address many of these issues. And it gets to a broader issue of voter ID and the belief that to cast a vote, to participate in our democracy, you should have to present an ID the same way you do to get out of plane, to buy a beer, et cetera. And that's one where there's wide support. It's not even close in terms of where people support that. And that's the issue that where I think the Republicans can and should focus. but also they have plenty of things to talk about as the election draws closer, that this can be one of the things that's in their arsenal, but doesn't necessarily need to be the lead vehicle. Of course, you're talking about the SAVE Act that the Republicans are putting a hard push on it. And there is some bipartisan support for the SAVE Act that the Republicans want to move forward. Again, as we look at that, It seems, though, when we think of the president saying that he wants more federal control of elections, that seems to fly in the face of the Constitution, which gives the election control to the states, is that something that's realistically possible for the president to pull off, even bringing it up at this point as you go into this midterm cycle? I'd expect he would encounter increased resistance among members of Congress should he continue down that path. And you've already seen the White House start to clarify over the course of the last week what he meant there, voicing more of his concerns more broadly about the need to keep elections safe there. And yeah, the Constitution very clearly clarifies that the states and...

the local municipalities are the ones who oversee the elections. And frankly, that's a principle that Republicans and conservatives have fought for for many years against, by the way, the Biden administration, when they tried to do something similar and just monopolize and take over the federal government. So look, Grinnell, I don't think this is going to be the core tenant going forward. That's the thing about living in this Trump universe we live in. New cycles move really fast. Political issues come at you fast and furious. And before you know, you're on to the next thing, we've got the state of the union coming up in just two weeks. That'll be an nice chance for the president to really hit the reset button, refocus the national attention or where he wants to take the country over these next few months and command that bully pulpit like he has the ability to do it, unlike anybody else. You mentioned the State of the Union, and that's going to happen just a few days before we really get headlong into the midterm elections. March 3rd. is when three states, Arkansas, North Carolina and Texas, will hold their primaries for the midterms to sort of set up what will happen in November. I want to look at a couple of those states. One is Texas. And one race that everyone's looking at is the Republican primary for Senate. That's John Cornyn, the incumbent, and Ken Paxton, the current Attorney General of Texas. And he is challenging John Cornyn. I don't think the president has endorsed anyone in that race yet. Talk to me a little bit about how that race is being watched. And is that, again, a bellwether for whether the old guard of the Republicans, John Cornyn in this case, can maintain that seat? Well, Senator Corn is someone who's raised a ton of money for his party. He's someone who's led the... National Republican Senatorial Committee. He did two terms there, and he's someone who's been in D.C. a while and is well-liked by members of both sides, the political aisle. And last week, it wasn't that long ago in Texas, there was a state Senate election that swung for a Democrat in a heavily red seat. And that was seen as many as a potential warning sign of things to come. Now, with the caveat that special elections are always special elections, and you shouldn't put too much... stocking them as harbingers of things to come. It does speak to what happens if Republicans don't feel their best team. It does speak to what happens even in Ruby Red States like Texas in a midterm election where things can be unpredictable. And if you're in the White House and you're looking at that March 3 primary and you're thinking that John Cornyn would be a much stronger general election candidate than some of the other folks in that race. It may be the signal you need to get involved in that race, put John Cornyn over the finish line in that primary. And then all of a sudden that race comes off the map in November. and it just becomes one less place where they have to spend money defending an incumbent. It should be mentioned as well that on the Democratic side of that race, Jasmine Crockett, the House member from Texas, is challenging for the chance to become the senator in that seat, although her victory is not even guaranteed at this point, but that's to look at further down the line. I want to move over to North Carolina. We've heard about...

the Senate race there to replace Thom Tillis in the Senate. And there are primaries, but we expect that to be on the Democratic side, the former governor, Roy Cooper, and on the Republican side, Michael Whatley, the Republican Party chair. Is that still one of the races to watch this year? It'll be a marquee race, that's for sure. And it's one that, barring any massive surprise, in a couple of weeks, has already been essentially decided that the general election candidates by Michael Whatley and Roy Cooper on the other side have been by and large in place since they've gotten to the race. in the fall north carolina is one of those states it's a red state uh but it it doesn't always lean necessarily hard right and it's one of those battleground states where there's a lot of different media markets there's many different regions of the state uh it's a big state in many ways it's a microcosm of the country you've got the cities like charlotte you've got the more rural parts out in the east and then you've got the universities like duke and chapel hill and it's one of those ones where the race can go either way. Look, I think a lot of money is going to be spent I think neither party is going to take anything for granted. Roy Cooper on the Democrat side, he's pretty formidable. He's a guy who's one statewide a couple of times. He's been a governor. He's someone who maintains high name identification. He's also someone who's very cautious and he's seen more of a centrist. He may not have necessarily the juice to activate and to get those, the party leaders who really call the shots, the more extreme activists out to vote for him. So it'll be a tight one. take down the wire is my prediction going forward. As we look at that race, and like you said, I used to live in North Carolina and you're right about how it is a microcosm for the country. You look at polling right now. It shows in many cases there may be a slight edge for Cooper at this point, but a lot of people are still undecided. Is that something that? whoever is going to be trailing as we get closer to this, going to put their, hang their hat on saying maybe we can swing those undecided voters into our column and get across that finish line. Yeah. And a state like North Carolina, you need a lot of money to compete in Brunall because of its many media markets, because of how large and diverse it is in terms of the votes you need to communicate with. So. This is one where both candidates are going to have to raise a lot of their own money because there's a lot of other races where the national parties are going to play elsewhere. And look, North Carolina has gone Democratic once in this century. And that was in 2008, at the height of Obama mania. It's gone Republican every contest since then, at least at the federal level, there's been a string of Democratic governors. But at the federal level, it's by and large, Republican steep that said.

in these way of elections, it can shift pretty far in one direction if things are going the way the party needs it to be going at the broader level. I'm glad you mentioned the former President Obama because I'm going to ask you to put on your Republican strategist hat here and sort of guide me a little as to what folks are thinking. Because we've seen in the past few days the president reposted a meme that showed the Obama's Barack and Michelle Obama depicted as apes. And the president said he didn't see that portion of the video. The video was taken down hours later. And the president said he didn't feel he needed to apologize for that. Now, as a Republican strategist, when candidates who support the president running for office see these kinds of things happen, do they put their head in their hands, say, why did he do that? What? is going through a candidate's mind when something like this happens. And for you as a Republican strategist, does it make your job harder trying to get wins as the midterms come along? Well, it sure wasn't helpful. That's for sure. And I think Senator Tim Scott spoke for many in the party when he urged president to take down the tweet, and thankfully he did. But these unnecessary and unwelcome distractions, time is the one commodity you can't get back. And it's hard to believe, but we're taking closer and closer to those midterm elections. And every day that passes is one day where you don't have a chance to get things done and focus on your agenda and talk about why. your vision is better than the other one, the other party's vision. And that's where I think this state of the union is going to be a potential linchpin in the year. It's going to give people the opportunity to focus forward, talk about what remains legislative priorities that can speak to some of the political promises made on the campaign trail a couple years ago and give these candidates everywhere a message to carry and a vision to carry so that when they go make their case for voters in the fall, they've got a list of accomplishments they can point back to and say, this is what we did. is why you should rehire us for two or six more years. If you're sitting across from President Trump in the Oval Office, would you tell him, you've got to apologize for that? Look, no one tells this president what to do. I think that's been well established over his decade on the national stage. So look, he took the tweet down and when the damage is done and everybody moves on. But again, these distractions take away from there's only so much oxygen. There's only so much focus that people can kind of. get their arms around. So it certainly wasn't a helpful, a helpful play in the Republican Party's case to voters, that's for sure. This is going to be a story for quite a bit now as people continue to talk about the fallout from that and we'll continue to follow it. Colin Reed is a Republican strategist and a co-founder of South and Hill Strategies. Colin, always good to talk to you and get your opinions on things. We hope to talk to you again soon on the rundown. Thanks, Bernal.

During his first campaign for the White House, President Trump made improving veterans care a top priority. Not long after a scandal had erupted in 2014, over long wait times at VA centers, in some cases with deadly consequences. That led to the Choice Act passed under President Obama and then expanded access to alternative community care under President Trump, who continues to prioritize care for veterans. I signed an order establishing the National Center for Warrior Independence. to house up to 6,000 veterans in need, and we will not stop until we have ended the tragedy of homeless veterans. Nearly 52,000 homeless veterans permanently housed during the 2025 fiscal year, the highest total in seven years. The president also using his Veterans Day speech to highlight that a backlog of benefit claims had been cut in half during the first nine months of his second term. That's a big achievement, and Doug is going to get it down to. He's talking about Doug Susan Collins, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, who took the reins just over a decade after the wait time scandal. It probably stands in a much better position and we're getting better. Secretary Susan Collins is also a colonel in the Air Force Reserve, a military chaplain, after previously serving in the Navy Reserve. Most of the... Issues that changed in the first administration were direct results of, and I was in Congress at the time, was a direct result to problems at the VA. We had a wait time scandal that was not a wait time issues more as it was. We had basically employees doing criminal action, keeping people from getting colonoscopies and other things like that. So you had what started the Choice Act, then the Mission Act, which was in 2018 that came in. Mission Act gave the ability, as you said, to get into the community quick in a more...

organized ways, probably the best way to put it. So when you say community care, that's different for us, but puts us in the same vein as most people in the public. If you go to your primary care, they're going to send you to an orthopedic or they'll send you to a, if you have a cancer issue, oncology, whatever. Where ours was is we sort of kept everything in house. We're sort of internal, so we didn't have that sort of. exit ramp as easily to, say, go to a community cardiologist, not a VA cardiologist. Mission Act gave that ability. So in this one, we've taken it a step further. We've said, okay, what is all of the stuff that VA does that keeps us from operating as efficiently as we can as the largest health care system in the country? And so what we've done is we've engaged our hospitals and our clinics to be more frontline, be more veteran accommodating to not only get them to community care, if that be, but also giving them the tools they need to do direct. care. So for us, I think that you're probably the growing part of our veterans getting the best care that they can possibly get in so many areas, just making it easier for them to access it. Is that how you've been able to reduce the backlog of families waiting for VA health care? Because I know that's been a hallmark already in this second time. It was. I think what we did is we, I know it sounds strange. We just, we use a common sense approach. I mean, let's, why, VA was. in many ways paralyzes itself in bureaucratic risk-averseness. And so it's, well, I don't want to make a decision, and let's, let's ask somebody else, and let's ask up the chain. And so it's everybody, you know, they try to get everybody's approval. And so there's no, there's no, okay, sometimes we just need to do something. You know, the guys stand, the veterans here, let's get them fixed. Him or her here, let's get him fixed. And then we'll talk about, you know, the issues after the fact. We were so risk averse that we didn't. So little things like how the Champ VA, which is our families had backlog had backed up. Nobody wanted to address it. They just sort of, oh, Well, that's just the way it is. Well, no, it's not the way it is. Nobody else operates like we do. So we put focus on it and that got the, where those processing basically a day-to-day kind of claim now, instead of it being a weight and C kind of gain three and four and five weeks or longer. We did the same thing with our disability claims, which had climbed over $260,000 a year ago this week to, you know, now we're under $100,000. It's just a matter of putting priority on things and measuring it and getting it done and not being just so risk-averse to everything. We do. When it comes to the disability claims, I wanted to give you a chance to respond to a report from Senate Democrats suggesting that the quality of the claims process and in some cases the care is suffering because of job cuts. Have you heard any concerns about that from staff or from veterans? That's a lot. I'll just call it what it is. Look, they can't complain about what we're doing, so they just make up crap. I'm referencing real numbers from the V8. The interesting thing is, is the quality of the claims. We've actually processed more claims over 3 million than ever before, and yet the percentage, and think about this, if you had a lower percentage, you have, like, 19% of those were appealed, okay, from a year or two ago. And now we're having 20% of those appealed. You had a 1% increase, but yet a 3%.

10 times increasing the amount of how many we've got going on. So, yeah, I mean, that's a logical thing because they have the right to appeal. Not everybody's 100%, although they think they are. So they have the right to appeal, is it going forward? It's just a made-up game. You've been adding clinics as well. Yes. How many have you added so far, and how many more are you hoping to add around the country? Oh, we've added and added on or changed, you know, 20, 25 almost at this point. We're looking to, in the budget, includes many more that we'll be changing, you know, adding on this. year as well. So we're redoing older clinics. We're phasing out some and making some bigger. We've added them in areas of growth. Virginia in particular, we've opened two very large CBOC clinics, which can handle upwards of 15 to 20 to 30,000 veterans off of our hospitals now. So that's an interesting thing, too. They don't all have to go to the hospital. They can come and get a lot of specialty care and others there in the clinics. Just like the model is in most hospitals across the country, private and public hospitals, they have the main hospital. have clinics set up in neighborhoods where people can get a lot of the care. So again, we're exercising the fact of who we are and getting the care closer to the veteran, but and still maintaining that veteran atmosphere. Illinois Congressman and Marine veteran Mike Bossed is calling for passage of the Veterans Access Act, which is designed to build on the Mission Act that you referenced from the president's first term, really aiming overall for more options and less red tape and more. control for veterans over their own health care. You know, as a former congressman from Georgia, how difficult it can be to get anything passed in Congress, and that certainly hasn't gotten any easier in recent years. Are you optimistic about this bill getting over the finish line? How important is it? I hope so. Look, Mike's a good friend, and he's done a lot of work with this, and I appreciate the chairman's work. And the Senate side, Moran, Jerry Moran is in the Senate chairman. He's tried to, they've got their own version. Their ideas on, again, how they're paying for it. A lot of these ideas we've already sort of taken and put into place already, which is helpful. And this will just codify it as he go forward. I hope they can get it passed. They've got a lot of negotiating left to do. We'll see what happens. We're supportive of some things that they're, you know, most of the stuff in the bill and we gave them help on how to actually look at it. Are you concerned at all in terms of the VA's agenda about the midterm? elections and what may or may not happen? I would hope not. I mean, the big thing is this, you know, the interesting thing for me is, is they always say the VA in the Hill is the most bipartisan thing they do. It is true to a point, but I will disagree in the sense, though, that there's a difference in Republicans and Democrats on the issue of what's the most important. You know, up until this year, the Senate Democrats had ran, you know, had not even tended to bother with the structural inefficiencies at the... at the VA, they just sort of added more money and added more people. So it's a matter of how we run it more than anything else. And I think we're putting into place now with the reorganization of our health care system, making it more hospital clinic focus, putting our policy in one area, our finance, and that's going to help. And I don't think you want to go backwards to something that would hurt veterans in the long run.

There's a lot more awareness in recent years about mental health in general, including for veterans. And many other issues can be intertwined with a need for mental health care. How is the VA advancing? progress on challenges like veteran homelessness, substance abuse, and suicide risk. Yeah, that's one of the top priorities that I have in looking at it because it is something that, you know, we want to make sure that veterans have a higher propensity for death by suicide than others. a lot of different reasons in that regard. And what I really found interesting hearing is something, you know, for your listeners to take back, is that the length of time in service has a direct correlation to the unfortunate propensity for death by suicide. You would think that that would be the longer that they served, the more propensity for that they would have. And it's actually the less they served. It's actually the ones who served the zero to four or five years are actually worse. So we're looking at how we can transition out of the Department of War into the VA. care of the same folks. So, you know, that's something we're very, so on that death by suicide front, we're taking steps to get them early, get them help, making sure they understand that the benefits are for them. It's not for somebody else working with that. Homelessness, I mean, we've housed over $50,000 just in the last year in either temporary or permanent housing. The number for veterans' homelessness is going down as opposed to the homelessness for the general population, which is going up. So we're not anywhere close to where we need to be there, but I think It's been good for us to focus on it. West LA is a place we're doing it. Also working with partnerships, tunnels to towers, other organizations that have built homes for veterans. What do you want people to know, Mr. Secretary, about this administration and its priorities that maybe they don't know already or that gets overshadowed? I think it's overshadowed in the wrangling of politics in D.C. and the VA. We're the most retail for the VA. which is what I run. It's the largest civilian organization in the government. We're bigger than a standing army. We're 450,000 people. But yet we're retail. We're the most retail of every... You can't name me another department that depends on... sort of the speak, the customer walking in as much as the VA does. But we just don't. I mean, everybody else's policy or they deal with states or they deal, you know, they touch people. But unless everything we do depends on the interaction with a veteran, we just don't, we don't make widgets. We don't do anything. We don't, it's all about the veterans. So I think what I want them to understand is one, it's a, we're the health care system. And the flip side of that, we're a health care system. In other words, You know, I hear all the time from Congress, well, you know, you're slow to get into, you know, to see us, okay, have you checked your own doctor? How long is it taking you to get a physical? I mean, I schedule on a physical in my own home doctor, it takes two months, three months out to get a physical. Well, you're holding us to a different standard. And we have the same doctor, nurse issues of trying to get people in as anybody else. So I think, one, taking us that we are a health care system.

that we have a specific partnership with who we do, and that's veterans only, but making sure that we're, that they understand that what we're changing and what we're doing is about a veteran getting the help that they need and not about an organization. I think that's what's been overshadowed because we're so enamored in D.C. with the workforce and all this that more means better. No, no organization in the world believes you just have more is always better, especially if they're not measuring the metrics. Yay, Secretary Doug Susan Collins. Thank you very much for your time.

It's time for your Fox News commentary. Raleigh Gaines. What's on your mind? Georgia voters must reject Jon Ossoff's awful record against women. As a former collegiate swimmer who raced against and lost opportunities to a male competitor, I know exactly what's at stake when women's sports are not protected. Scholarships, records, roster spots, and the promise of Title IX that women and girls would finally have an equal opportunity to compete on a level playing field. It happened in Georgia. And now, in 2026, the safety of... every girl in Georgia remains on the line. When it mattered most, Georgia Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff has abandoned women and girls every single time. Start with sports. Senator Jon Ossoff has had three chances to stand up for female athletes. Three chances to say girls' sports are for girls. And three times he voted no. In March of 2025, he voted against the protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, a straightforward common sense bill that would have clarified under Title IX that female sports are reserved for females based on biological sex. The measure would have reinforced the law's original intent. In March of 2024, he voted to kill an amendment that would have withheld federal funds from schools and states that allow men to compete in women's programs. In March of 2021, he voted against an amendment to stop schools from placing male athletes in female categories. Three chances to stand with women. Three times he refused. But it doesn't stop there. Senator Jon Ossoff is also pushing to override Georgia state level protections by repeatedly backing the Federal Equality Act. He co-sponsored it in 2021 and 2023 and campaigned on it in 2020. The bill would redefine sex to include gender identity across federal civil rights law with no carve-outs for sports. Legal experts and elite female athletes, many of them not even conservative, have warned exactly what that means. Co-ed competition, lost opportunities, and compromise safety. The Equality Act is not a compromise. It's a federal mandate that wipes out Georgia's right to protect its own girls. Jon Ossoff's record goes far beyond the playing field. He supported legislation that would force access to bathrooms, locker rooms, and changing rooms based on gender identity. Translation, he supports policies that would require your daughter to undress in a locker room with a man, no regard for privacy, no regard for safety. He supports policies that tell women, including...

Are you looking for a beach read this summer? May I suggest your big wireless bill? It's got suspense, mystery, a slightly flat, emotional arc, and a shocking twist where you realize you've been overpaying the entire time. Fortunately, though, Mint's story is better. Every plan, $15 dollars a month a month. Even unlimited. That's it. Happy ending. Zero tears. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch. Up front payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, required $15 per month equivalent. Taxes and fees extra. Initial term only greater than 50 gigabytes may slow when network is busy. See terms.
