Tonight, we break down Donald Trump’s latest press conference on the Iran war and try to separate reality from rhetoric. With new threats of massive strikes on Iranian infrastructure and shifting claims about the state of the conflict, the messaging is as confusing as ever. Don takes a closer look at what was actually said, what it means, and why the stakes keep getting higher, not just abroad, but here at home as the economic and global fallout grows. So where is this all heading? And how much further can this escalate before it’s too late? Tonight, we are joined by Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari to break down all the chaos.

This morning, we break down the latest alarming escalation in the Iran war. Donald Trump is now threatening massive strikes on Iran if they don’t reopen the Strait of Hormuz, including targeting infrastructure like power plants and bridges. The problem? The messaging keeps changing. Just weeks ago, the line was that the U.S. didn’t need the strait reopened, now it’s suddenly worth threatening a full-scale escalation. As tensions rise, oil markets are rattled, allies are alarmed, and even officials inside the U.S. are questioning the strategy, if there even is one. So what are we actually looking at here? A plan… or just pure chaos? How far can this go, and what does this mean for all of us? This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

This morning, we break down Donald Trump’s address to the nation and try to figure out what, if anything, actually came out of it. Instead of clarity on the Iran crisis, viewers got a familiar mix of self-congratulation and vague claims of success, with little in the way of concrete updates. Don is joined by friends of the show Reecie Colbert and Clay Cane to unpack what was said, what wasn’t, and what it all signals moving forward. If this was meant to provide answers, why does it feel like we’re left with even more questions? This episode is brought to you by Lean.
