About this episode

The episode discusses the quick halt of Project Freedom, the ambiguous warning to Iran, and the lackluster California governor's debate, hinting at potential Republican gains in the state.

Project Freedom lasted less than 48 hours before the President hit pause. Is he looking for a way out of Iran or buying time before the bombs drop? His statement to Iran was equal parts threat and confusion — agree to what you agreed to or face an intense bombing campaign. Clear as mud. Meanwhile California held its governor's debate and nobody won. The Democratic candidates were flat, the big issues went unanswered, and the door for a Republican upset in the nation's biggest blue state just swung a little further open.
