On Chat Box with David Cruz, the first guest is U.S. Rep. Andy Kim (D-3rd), who says he will take on Sen. Bob Menendez in next year’s primary election — because “New Jersey deserves better.” Kim, who said he is “going to be seeing this through,” discusses the challenges ahead, including potentially taking on the Democratic machine, as well as what his priorities would be if he makes the move from the House to the Senate.

Then, Cruz talks with state Sen. Jon Bramnick (R-Morris) about the Republican Party’s reaction to Menendez’s indictment. Bramnick also looks ahead to November’s legislative elections.
