The economy: What to watch as we await important report cards on the U.S. economy, major American companies and what ALL this data might tell us about the health of the banking system. Politics: President Biden and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis follow a familiar playbook. Plus - why Gov. DeSantis can't simply "jump" into the race without crossing some hurdles put in place by his state's government. Sudan: Why instability in one of Africa's largest nations matters - a reminder of its former designation as a state sponsor of terror that once housed Osama Bin Laden. Tucker: One of the most watched men in America and Fox News "part ways." What to read into the announcement and the broader questions being asked on the health of the American press - Have we pointed too far or not enough at the press over personal accountability?
