Broadcasting from St. Francisville, Louisiana, Erick takes on President Trump's $27 billion in government equity stakes across 30 companies, including a nearly 10% stake in Intel, and warns that the precedent, plus a corruption problem that is now the number two issue for voters, opens the door to Zohran Mamdani-style socialists and the next Democratic administration. He also breaks down Trump's sanctions waiver on Russian diesel, the Starshield cutoff for Ukraine, and the rumored Iran peace deal, with Republican pushback from Kevin Cramer and Mike Rogers. Then the Supreme Court takes up the 160-year-old federal ban on home distilling in Department of Justice v. McNutt.
