Summary

The heat of summer is here and @PaulRieckhoff takes you through the hottest political and social stories you need to know--and some you may have missed. He breaks down why Megan Rapinoe is one of the most clutch athletes of our time--and why she and the World Cup Champion US Women’s Soccer Team is so important to America’s future. Rieckhoff also tears into a new issue that has him angry--and should have all Amerians angry. And we sift through the political aftermath of Trump’s 4th of July Parade Thing in Washington, DC, and visited somewhere VERY different for the 4th of July: Wordsboro, Vermont (population 900) for the oldest parade in Green Mountain state.
