Mike Lawler, Congressman representing New York's 17th Congressional District, calls into the program to talk about his upcoming meeting with the Pope in Italy, where he plans to discuss religious freedom and the situation in the Middle East. Lawler explains his trip's broader context, including meetings with military commands in Naples and planned visits to Tunisia and Morocco. The conversation shifts to U.S. politics, where Lawler shares his thoughts on government involvement in industry, flag burning legislation, the criminal justice system, and public safety in New York City. Lawler criticizes politicians like Andrew Cuomo and Kathy Hochul and endorses Curtis Sliwa for mayor, citing Sliwa's rise in the polls and his potential to positively impact New York City. Lawler also emphasizes the need for a strong Congressional presence and suggests Elise Stefanik's candidacy for New York Governor in 2026.
