Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz returned to "Fox News Sunday" for the second consecutive week — fresh off a pheasant hunt — as he courts conservative and rural voters who aren't sold on Donald Trump.
Walz competed for views with his opposite number, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who is a fixture on the Sunday show circuit.
But morning's most viral moment came from Trump himself, who claimed the U.S. military may need to sort out "left-wing radicals" and "the enemy from within."

Ten years into a movement to learn what makes Black men smile, art director and entrepreneur Carlton Mackey has refined his vision but remains rooted in that central aim.
Why it matters: The Black Men Smile initiative started in the fall of 2014 as an Instagram hashtag to challenge stereotypes and misunderstandings about Black men. With Mackey's help, it has evolved into a movement that promotes Black joy.
Houses have historically been a key driver of middle-class wealth creation — but when some or all of your house gets destroyed in a flood, it feels less like an asset and more like a liability. That's a scenario of concern to millions of Americans this hurricane season.
Why it matters: Only a tiny proportion of Americans have flood insurance — and yet their insurance bills are already soaring.
