Emily Jashinsky opens the show with developments in the war with Iran, a deep dive into Trump’s past comments, and whether voters could reasonably interpret his words as a commitment to no forever wars. She also examines what we’ve learned about the leadup to the attacks and Iran’s own radicalization efforts. Then Emily brings in Matt Taibbi of “Racket News” to discuss parallels between current U.S. messaging on Iran and the rhetoric used before the 2003 Iraq invasion, shifting geopolitical stances, how the media narratives have formed, and the justifications for war from the Trump administration. Emily and Matt also discuss how both parties have repeatedly declined opportunities to rein in presidential war authority. They wrap up their discussion with a look at reports Meta may be meddling in the Hungarian election. Emily ends the show with a look at the newly released depositions of Bill and Hillary Clinton and if the former President slipped up on a question about Epstein’s death in a New York prison.
