Ken Rosato fills in for Mark Simone and discusses the Dominican nuns in Westchester County and the controversy surrounding their work helping cancer patients. He looks at how New York's transgender protection laws and state mandates involving pronouns may conflict with the nuns' religious beliefs and concerns about patient privacy. Ken also discusses the deadly Brooklyn apartment building collapse, questioning whether construction issues or overcrowding may have contributed to the deaths and injuries. He then talks about the Washington, DC, gym shooting involving a local doctor who allegedly killed one person, injured four others, and then took his own life. The hour also covers the alleged attempted cockpit breach on a United Airlines flight from Newark to New Orleans, with Ken raising questions about the suspect's immigration history, asylum policies, and ICE. Ken goes after Senate Majority Leader John Thune, criticizing his leadership and his failure to get Republican priorities and judicial appointments across the finish line.

Ken also calls out lawmakers for taking extended breaks instead of getting work done. He then discusses reports that 40 members of the Democratic Socialists of America traveled to Cuba, raising questions about who funded the trip and whether Cuba or China may have been involved, as Florida launches an investigation. Ken interviews New York attorney Martin Nussbaum about the legal issues surrounding the Dominican nuns in Westchester County, their work with cancer patients, and the potential conflict between their religious beliefs, patient privacy, and New York's transgender protection laws. Ken dives into the protests taking place in France over the past month, discussing the growing debate surrounding socialism and communism in other countries and the pushback from those who oppose these movements. He also talks about freedom of speech around the world and raises concerns about the possibility of communism gaining influence in parts of the United States. Ken then turns to the growing calls from Democrats to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the possibility that those efforts could move forward. Ken interviews Roger Friedman from Showbiz411.
