Hey folks,
Katie Phang joined me from New York, and we just let it rip. We got into Trump’s illegal war in Iran, and we didn’t sugarcoat it. American lives lost. No clear plan. And a White House that feels like it’s improvising with missiles. The polling. The MAGA cracks. The fear. The corruption.
Here’s what we got into:
[00:01:07] We break down the new CNN poll: 59% disapprove of Trump’s war in Iran, 60% say he has no plan, and 62% believe Congress should’ve authorized it. In this partisan climate, those numbers matter.
[00:05:21] Nick Fuentes telling his followers to vote Democrat. Megyn Kelly turning on Trump. When the MAGA echo chamber starts fracturing, you know something’s wrong.
[00:08:47] Is this a distraction from Epstein and the tanking economy — or is it worse than that? We talk about the chaos inside this administration and the total lack of a coherent strategy.
[00:12:06] Katie raises the nuclear nightmare scenario: if you corner Iran like this with no endgame, what’s their rational move? Escalation. Proliferation. That’s how you make the world less safe.
[00:17:39] I share an update on my surgery after losing 300 pounds — and why this next chapter is going to dramatically improve my life.
This conversation is about more than foreign policy. It’s about accountability. It’s about whether American lives are treated like props. It’s about corruption hiding in plain sight. And it’s about what we can actually do next — harm reduction, winning back ground in 2026, and staying focused when everything feels chaotic. If you value honest conversations like this — conversations that don’t treat you like you’re stupid — help me keep them going.
