Weekend Edition: Campaign 2026, Regulating AI, and 3rd Anniversary of October 7th Attack

In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal.

First – On Wednesday President Trump made his third trip to Texas in a month to support Republican Governor Greg Abbott and Senate candidate Ken Paxton who are facing stiffer-than-expected political headwinds. We'll dig into some Lone Star state politics with Spectrum News Texas reporter Reena Diamante.

Then: The debate over whether and how to regulate artificial intelligence continues here in Washington as the President huddled with tech leaders again at the White House earlier this week. We break it down with Cato Institute's Jennifer Huddleston & AI Now Institute's Sarah Myers West.

And finally: This week marked the 3rd anniversary of the October 7th attack on Israel. We speak with Aaron David Miller of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace on where the conflict stands today between Israel and Hamas.
