The Problems Facing Both Parties This Summer

Author: FOX News Radio May 22, 2026 Duration: 33:43
Memorial Day weekend is here, but as Americans hit the road, the "unofficial start of summer" is being overshadowed by high prices amid the ongoing conflict in Iran. GOP Strategist and former RNC Communications Director Doug Heye joins the Rundown to discuss why Republicans are feeling the pressure as new polling shows 58% of voters view the cost of living as their top concern. The Democratic Party has released its extensive 2024 election autopsy report, sparking internal debate over messaging failures and the key demographic shifts that influenced the outcome. "Fox News Sunday" Anchor and Host of the Living the Bream podcast Shannon Bream joins to discuss the report's critique of the party's decision-making during the last presidential election, the U.S. indicting former Cuba President Raúl Castro, and how a highly controversial $1.8 billion "weaponization fund" is dividing Republicans in the Senate. PLUS, commentary by David Marcus, columnist for FOX News Digital.  PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
