Summary
It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report
On today's program:
Donald Trump doesn't want to give a timeline for the war in Iran. "We we're in Vietnam 18 years...I've been doing this for six weeks"
Pete Hegseth continues to whine about the lack of support from Europe for the U.S.'s pointless war.
The State Department releases an official statement that states that the U.S. engaged in a war with Iran at the "request of Israel".
Astead Herndon, editorial director at Vox, joins the program to discuss his new podcast, America, Actually, and recap the week's news.
In the Fun Half:
RFK, Jr. is caught manipulating medical studies during a senate hearing by a fellow Republican. RFK, Jr.'s data manipulation is never exemplified better than by his suggesting that trump has lowered drug prices by 600%.
Dave Rubin is devastated by Virginia voting to gerrymander their state.
Jillian Michaels issues an open call to people from the left to come on to her podcast for a debate and Sam accepts.
Michael Knowles goes on a racist rant inspired by Ramy Youssef appearing alongside Elmo for Arabic heritage month. Somehow Knowles' impression of Elmo is far more offensive than his islamophobia.
Donal Trump hosts a press conference where he claims to have had more people at his 2016 inauguration than attended Martin Luther King, Jr's March on Washington. After his rant he falls asleep for the rest of the press conference.
The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.
