Episode description

Join Rita Cosby for a fiery hour of breaking news dissecting the biggest political and military power plays of the day. Tonight, we break down the controversial new Virginia redistricting referendum that essentially hands Democrats a massive 10-to-1 congressional seat advantage. We debate whether this new map, which zigzags like a puzzle piece, is a legitimate move for fairness or just a blatant partisan gerrymander.

Plus, President Trump has unexpectedly extended the Iran ceasefire indefinitely. We discuss whether this pause is a genuine diplomatic opening or a strategic military "head fake" designed to let the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and civilian leaders destroy each other from the inside. Rita also takes aim at Democrats like Senator Chris Murphy and Congressman Mike Quigley for their "anti-American" rhetoric and sarcastic tweets cheering on Iranian shadow fleets bypassing US blockades.

Finally, we celebrate renowned lawyer Alan Dershowitz officially leaving the Democratic Party over its radical anti-Israel shift, and honor the heroic, life-saving actions of Mishawaka, Indiana police officers in tonight's "Back the Blue" segment.
