About this episode

Jon Herold discusses news related to the Iran war fallout and various political topics amidst technical difficulties.

Jon Herold fights through a frustrating stream glitch (audio fine, no video on Rumble) while covering a lighter Tuesday news day dominated by Iran war fallout. He digs into reporting that intelligence community leaks are undermining Trump's negotiating position, a Politico piece describing the conflict as a "quagmire" ahead of the midterms, and a personal anecdote about a normie conservative brother in law's surprisingly pessimistic 2028 outlook. Other highlights include newly released Senate documents on the FBI blocking a border stop of an EcoHealth Alliance official, a court ruling clearing the way for Biden's memoir tapes to go public, Kash Patel's planned Russia visit, and a lively back and forth over a clipped comment from journalist John Solomon about not voting. Sponsor reads and plenty of chat chaos round out a technically bumpy but entertaining Tuesday show.
