On the latest edition of our new original series, Straight Up with Tiana Lowe, the Washington Examiner commentator sits down with commentary editor Conn Carroll to map out the Republican Party’s path to taking back Senate control from President Biden and the Democrats.

Tiana makes the case that inflation will prove the deciding issue of the midterms, while Conn argues that the nation’s first uptick in violent crime in decades will define the election.
