Pags dives into the latest from Iran as President Trump floats putting his own name on the Strait of Hormuz and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the U.S. and China actually share some important goals when it comes to Iran. Then breaking news erupts during the show as Pags reports live on multiple people, including police officers, being shot in downtown Minneapolis. Back overseas, Iran is reportedly attempting to hack U.S. infrastructure, Trump addresses the Strait from the Oval Office, and Pags says he's ready to see the conflict wrapped up. But reports claim White House aides are worried about escalation ahead of the midterms—is that really what's happening, or another anonymously sourced media narrative? Plus, former congressman and judge Ted Poe joins Pags for a fascinating constitutional debate: Can a communist legally run for office in America? What happens if elected officials attempt to fundamentally dismantle the constitutional system? Poe breaks down the 10th versus 14th Amendments, the limits of government power, and why Democrats are opposing an effort to permanently set the Supreme Court at nine justices.
