Hey folks,
I went live with Don Lemon and we talked about the war with Iran, a horrific bombing that killed children, the corruption swirling around Trump’s inner circle, and why so many Americans feel like the system is completely breaking down. It’s one of those conversations where you can feel the frustration — and the urgency — building in real time.
Here are a few moments you don’t want to miss:
00:01:48 The devastating report that a U.S. Tomahawk missile hit a school in Iran, killing as many as 185 people — and the administration’s attempt to blame someone else.
00:05:12 Corey Lewandowski reportedly bragging that he could “do whatever he wants” because Trump would pardon him — a window into how untouchable some people in this orbit believe they are.
00:10:34 The surreal moment when Trump’s family wealth bubble collides with reality — from $19 strawberries to questions about who’s profiting from war.
00:13:23 A raw conversation about why young Americans aren’t eager to fight another war — and why people won’t sacrifice for a country that feels like it isn’t working for them anymore.
00:19:26 New polling showing many Americans believe the Iran conflict may be tied to political distraction — and what that says about public trust right now.
Don and I also dig into why trust in institutions is collapsing and why the political class seems completely disconnected from what people are going through. If conversations like this matter to you — if you believe we need honest, unfiltered discussions about what’s actually happening — help me keep building this platform.
