After serving more than 40 years in the Senate, Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) will retire at the end of the year. All eyes are on Mitt Romney, who now has a clear path to the Senate, and the ambitions to get him there.
Jenna Browder, Correspondent at CBN, discusses the likelihood that Mitt Romney runs for Hatch's seat. Romney has been a critic of President Trump on a number of issues. A Senator Romney could make it even more difficult for the president to pass major legislation.
Browder also takes a look at Bannon's remaining influence in the Republican Party after the release of Michael Wolff's tell-all "Fire And Fury." Bannon has apologized for his comments on the Trump family, but is that enough?

Autumn Peltier, an indigenous water activist, joined Cheddar News to talk about the lack of access to clean water among indigenous communities in Canada. “I say the government to hold themselves accountable for the promises that they make because Canada and indigenous people have a long history of broken promises and they still continue to this day to keep breaking promises with the nation's people," she said. "Less talk and more action is very much expected from me."
Robert Bonnie, farm production and conservation undersecretary for the USDA, spoke to Cheddar about climate-smart strategies to help farmers reduce carbon emissions from agriculture. "We share the costs of installing those practices on their lands in ways that will protect the climate and maintain agricultural productivity, and we're also partnering with farmers to draw in private investment in greenhouse gas emissions reductions provided by agriculture and forestry," he said. The hope is to get farmers and ranchers to produce climate-smart commodities to lessen the impact of climate change.
Cheddar's J.D. Durkin caught up with the head of NASA Bill Nelson, a former senator, who feels one thing that seems less rancorous on Capitol Hill these days is the work of the space agency.
