The episode discusses the ongoing election results in California and Iowa, the implications of recent political events, and a breaking news report on war powers regarding Iran.

Votes are still being counted in both the Los Angeles Mayor and the California Governor races. Julie Watts from CBS California recaps the takeaways for us.

Lana Zak joins to discuss what these results mean. Nikole Killion reports the breaking news: the House passed a war powers resolution regarding the conflict in Iran for the first time. Ohio Democratic Rep. Joyce Beatty reacts to the news. She also explains her recent victory against the Trump Administration, declaring that the President had to remove his name from the Kennedy Center. Listen to the full episode here!
