This week’s Sunday news shows are expected to focus on two important topics: the Iranian drone strikes targeting Israel and former President Trump’s upcoming criminal trial in New York.
According to reports from the Israel Defense Forces, Iran has launched drone strikes towards Israel, escalating tensions in the region. John Kirby, White House national security communications adviser, will discuss this threat on both “Face the Nation” and “Fox News Sunday.”
Kirby emphasized the seriousness of the Iranian threat and stated that the U.S. is closely monitoring the situation while maintaining close communication with Israeli counterparts.
Meanwhile, former President Trump’s hush money trial in New York is scheduled to begin on Monday. Despite seeking to delay his four criminal cases, Trump faces his first criminal trial.
Governor Chris Sununu (R-N.H.), who has been critical of Trump and his legal battles, will appear on ABC’s “This Week” to discuss the implications of Trump’s legal challenges.
Sununu previously highlighted the financial strain caused by Trump’s legal expenses and stressed the importance of broadening the Republican Party’s appeal beyond its traditional base.
In addition to these topics, recent developments in Arizona’s abortion laws have sparked controversy. The Arizona Supreme Court upheld a century-old abortion law, leading to renewed debates over reproductive rights.
Senator Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) will address this issue on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” condemning the court’s decision and its potential impact on women’s health and reproductive rights in the state.
The House of Representatives cleared a bill to extend and reform Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) after a contentious week. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who supported the renewal of surveillance powers, will discuss this legislative development on Fox’s “Sunday Morning Futures.”
This week’s Sunday news shows will provide insights into pressing issues ranging from international tensions to domestic legal battles and legislative debates.
