Episode description

Donald Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota as Kristi Noem suggests U.S. citizens should be prepared to show proof of citizenship, escalating fears of authoritarian overreach. Trump also signals he wants any military action against Iran to be “swift and decisive,” while openly musing that the U.S. “shouldn’t even have an election” when discussing the midterms. Fox News accuses Ms. Rachel of antisemitism over her appearance with Zohran Mamdani.
