Summary

Story 1: This morning, the FBI uncovered a fraud scheme straight out of Hollywood: tens of millions of dollars stolen through rigged poker games and insider sports betting, with four of New York's oldest crime families pulling the strings and prominent NBA players and coaches potentially connected. Will and The Crew break down the scope of the fraud and give you the latest updates on this developing story. Story 2: Senior Columnist for Townhall Kurt Schlichter joins Will to break down Maine Senatorial candidate Graham Platner’s multiple campaign scandals, before reacting to James Carville calling for a Trump supporter "walk of shame" and Snoop Dogg caving in to the woke agenda. Story 3: Will brings The Crew back in to further discuss Platner's "tattoo-gate." They also react to Michael Jordan describing his first basketball shot in years, and Dakota Johnson’s biggest turn off in men.
