On the seventeenth episode of the 2015 season of Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, which aired on Sunday, April 26th, Wallace began the show by discussing the recent riots in Baltimore with former Baltimore Mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake. Rawlings-Blake defended her handling of the situation, saying that she had given space to those who wanted to protest peacefully, but that criminal activity would not be tolerated. She also advocated for stronger communication and outreach between police departments and communities.

Wallace then spoke with Republican Representative from Wisconsin, Paul Ryan, about his recently proposed budget plan. Ryan explained that his plan would balance the budget in ten years by cutting back on spending in areas such as Medicare and Medicaid, while also increasing military spending. Wallace asked Ryan about concerns from some in his party that his budget proposal did not go far enough in cutting back on entitlement programs, to which Ryan defended his plan's approach as a "step in the right direction" and argued that the country needed to have a conversation about entitlement reform.

In a segment on Iran and U.S. foreign policy, Wallace spoke with former CIA Director, Michael Hayden, and Democratic Representative from New York, Adam Schiff. Hayden expressed skepticism towards the recent negotiations with Iran over their nuclear program, arguing that Iran has a history of being deceitful and that the U.S. was not getting enough concessions from them in the deal. Schiff defended the negotiations, saying that they were the best chance for preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and that the U.S. could always reimpose sanctions if Iran failed to live up to their commitments.

Wallace then talked with Republican Senator from South Carolina, Lindsey Graham, about his recent announcement that he would be running for president in 2016. Graham discussed his foreign policy platform, which he said would prioritize national security and a strong military, and also spoke about his conservative credentials on issues such as fiscal policy and social issues.

The show closed with Wallace's panel, which featured national security analyst Peter Bergen, political analyst Juan Williams, and Fox News contributor George Will. The panel discussed a range of topics, including the recent riots in Baltimore, the earthquake in Nepal, and the state of the race for the 2016 presidential nomination. They also debated the merits of President Obama's recent comments about income inequality and the need for a stronger social safety net.

Overall, the seventeenth episode of the 2015 season of Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace tackled a range of important political and policy issues, from foreign policy to entitlement reform to the 2016 presidential race. The show provided viewers with a wide-ranging and informative discussion of the week's top news stories.
