Jessica Tarlov and Aaron Parnas break down the political, economic, and legal fallout from Trump’s war with Iran. As the president openly talks about replacing Iran’s leadership and admits Americans may die, the war is already rattling markets, pushing up gas prices, and emerging as a defining issue heading into the midterms. Jess and Aaron discuss why early polling shows the strikes are deeply unpopular — and what that could mean for Republicans, Democrats, and the future of the MAGA movement.
They also examine Trump’s latest foreign policy rhetoric after he suggested Cuba “is going to fall” and hinted at a potential deal with Havana — raising the question: is Cuba Trump’s next target?
Plus, the fallout from Kristi Noem’s firing as DHS secretary and what Markwayne Mullin’s nomination could mean for immigration enforcement and the future of ICE. And the Justice Department releases another batch of Epstein-related files, including a previously missing interview involving allegations against Trump — as Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a subpoena from Republicans.
