Would Senator Ted Cruz ever accept a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court? And could another run for president be in his future?

In Part Two of his candid conversation with Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, Cruz reveals that President Donald Trump seriously discussed all three Supreme Court vacancies from his first term with him—and explains why he ultimately said no, including the role faith played in his decision.

Then Dan asks: Will Ted Cruz run for president again? His answer: "Time will tell."

Dan and Ted also discuss the fights ahead, including the SAVE Act and election integrity, school choice, the political stakes in Texas, and Cruz's bipartisan effort to protect the future of college sports.

It's a revealing conversation about the decisions Ted Cruz has made, the battles he's still fighting—and what could come next.

Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick sits down with U.S. Senator Ted Cruz for an unusually personal conversation about their friendship, their improbable political journeys, faith, family, and the experiences that shaped their careers.

Cruz recalls beginning his Senate campaign at just 2% in the polls, while Dan reveals how Cruz's grassroots victory helped inspire his own run for lieutenant governor. They trade stories from the campaign trail, talk about why Cruz has never changed his cell phone number, and share a moving conversation about keeping the numbers of friends they've lost.

Then they turn to Washington. Cruz discusses the SAVE Act, election integrity, the Republican senators standing in its way, John McCain's Obamacare vote, and why he believes elected officials should simply do what they promised voters they would do.

Finally, Dan asks the question many conservatives have wondered about: Would Ted Cruz accept an appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court?

The answer begins in Part Two.

As more than five million Texas children head back to school, Lt. Governor Dan Patrick sits down with Bonnie Wallace, a grassroots activist who became a leading voice in the fight over sexually explicit and age-inappropriate books available to children.

What began with Wallace challenging books in a Llano County public library grew into a federal court battle with national implications. Now, after visiting more than 160 school boards, she says parents still may not realize what their children can access in school libraries.

Dan and Bonnie discuss the Fifth Circuit court victory, Texas Senate Bill 13, the books at the center of the controversy, and what parents can do to become more involved. Dan also explains why Texas may need stronger consequences for school districts that fail to act.

One parent can make a difference—and Bonnie Wallace is proof.
