In this episode of Worth Knowing, we take a hard look at the war with Iran through constitutional law, military experience, and economic reality. Joining me is Fred Wellman — Army veteran of Desert Storm and Iraq, former Executive Director of The Lincoln Project, and current congressional candidate in Missouri.We examine:• The contradictory justifications offered by Trump, Marco Rubio, and JD Vance• Claims that Iran was “weeks away” from nuclear capability — despite prior assertions it had been “obliterated” • Whether Congress has abdicated its constitutional war powers• The War Powers Act and what qualifies as an “imminent threat”• The risk of launching military action without a Phase IV (post-conflict) plan• Reports of U.S. forces unprepared for retaliation• Whether this was strategy, pressure from allies, or chaotic decision-making• Why the “rally around the flag” effect is failing• How economic pain, inflation, and distrust are shaping public reactionFred speaks candidly about the burden of leadership, the cost of war, and what responsible oversight should look like from Congress.We also address the uncomfortable truth:Even if this war was launched with flawed reasoning and chaotic execution, it could still produce a positive long-term outcome.But that does not erase the legal and constitutional questions surrounding how it began.Fog of war is inevitable.Fog of contradiction is not.If you care about executive power, military accountability, economic reality, and the future of American democracy — this is a conversation worth hearing.Subscribe for serious political analysis without the outrage machine.#IranWar #Trump #WarPowersAct #FredWellman #USPolitics #Congress #MiddleEast #ExecutivePower #WorthKnowing00:00 Welcome and guest intro00:29 Conflicting war justifications02:40 Regime change and protest fallout04:00 Grudge theory and impossible lies05:33 Uncertainty and glimmers of hope09:23 Fred Wellman joins09:51 Why the strike was reckless11:27 Chaos and troop safety failures13:28 No plan and Iraq lessons14:56 Chat reactions and split MAGA15:51 Why are we doing this18:10 War Powers and cost of war22:40 Campaign plug and opponent24:14 Congress abdication and Truman model30:56 TARP story and independence33:09 Representing Missouri voters34:51 Kitchen table issues and trolls37:02 Real World Economic Pain38:11 Campaign Trail Reality Check40:26 Cost of Living Crisis42:00 American Dream Slipping43:25 Trump Promises vs Reality44:59 Chat Break and Independence47:08 Why Wag the Dog Fails50:25 Congress Missing in Action52:25 Running Against Ann Wagner56:30 Pragmatic Representation Pitch58:06 Wrap Up and Where to Follow01:00:36 Final Message and Thanks

Is Donald Trump hitting a political ceiling — or has he overplayed his hand?After a widely watched State of the Union, new polling suggests Trump may be maxing out his base support — even as tariffs rise, surveillance powers expand, Elon Musk influences battlefield outcomes in Ukraine, and new reporting on the Epstein files raises explosive questions.In this episode of Political Rehab, we break down:• The real impact of Trump’s State of the Union• Why tariffs are functioning as a tax on American consumers• Whether AI surveillance and FISA expansion threaten civil liberties• Elon Musk’s reported role in shaping battlefield conditions in Ukraine• The growing risk of U.S. conflict with Iran• New revelations about withheld Epstein-related files• The SAVE Act and the future of voting rightsThis isn’t partisan outrage.

The Supreme Court just struck down Donald Trump’s tariffs. But instead of taking the win, Trump doubled down. In today’s livestream, Matt Robison breaks down what may be the most revealing moment of Trump’s second term so far — and why it goes far beyond trade policy.The Court ruled that Trump’s sweeping tariffs were unconstitutional under the emergency powers he claimed. That decision gave him a political off-ramp: blame the Court, let inflation cool, stabilize markets, and boost economic growth ahead of the midterms.Instead, within minutes, Trump announced new tariffs — escalating economic chaos all over again.Why?We examine:📉 The economic fallout of Trump’s trade war — including studies showing nearly 300,000 lost jobs, erased GDP growth, and higher prices for American households📊 Why the U.S. trade deficit in 2025 didn’t shrink — and manufacturing job losses actually accelerated💰 How tariffs fueled inflation and kept interest rates high⚖️ The Supreme Court’s ruling and what it means for executive power under emergency economic authority🔥 The “Marshmallow Test” — and what Trump’s reaction says about his decision-making🚢 The largest U.S. naval buildup since the Gulf War — including the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford — and what it signals about a potential conflict with IranIf the President cannot exercise restraint when handed a clear off-ramp on tariffs, what does that mean for decisions involving war?Joining the show is Dan Perry, former Associated Press editor for the Middle East and Europe, to discuss tariffs, constitutional limits, Iran, Ukraine, British politics, and the broader implications for global stability.This isn’t just about trade policy.It’s about judgment. Power. And whether the guardrails of American democracy are still functioning.Subscribe to Worth Knowing for analysis you can trust.Trump’s Tariff “Marshmallow Test,” Supreme Court Limits, and the Rising Risk of War With Iran (w/ Dan Perry)00:00 Stream Welcome and Tariff Jokes00:29 Supreme Court Tariff Test01:16 Marshmallow Test and Tariff Obsession02:49 Economic Damage and Market Chaos04:48 Off Ramp Rejected New Tariffs05:38 Cognitive Alarm Bells and War Stakes08:24 Dan Perry Joins Court and GOP Breakdown13:19 Chat Interlude and Tariffs Explained18:23 Politics Polls and Globalization Backlash26:17 State of the Union Plug and Pivot to Iran27:32 Why Iran War Now Bluff or Deal33:02 Regime Change Case and Netanyahu Critique38:21 Calling It Fair on Trump39:10 Department of Education Fight40:04 Chat Jokes and Identity40:59 How Democracies Collapse42:18 Epstein Scandal UK vs US43:14 Why Trump Stays Untouchable45:00 Britain Accountability Culture49:26 Inequality and Rich Poor America51:22 Voter ID and Suppression55:05 Prediction Markets Corruption58:36 Tech Crypto AI Doom Loop01:03:16 No Deep State Just Incentives01:06:19 Swiftboating and Vanishing Norms01:07:36 Wrap Up Plugs and Signoff#Trump #Tariffs #SupremeCourt #Iran #TradeWar #Inflation #USPolitics #DanPerry #ExecutivePower #WorthKnowing #FederalReserve #IEEPA #Ukraine #MiddleEast
