Summary

The Southern Poverty Law Center faces significant scrutiny, though left-leaning media outlets remain largely silent following accusations of funding controversial organizations. Iran’s crackdown on protesters, including executions, is another story being underreported by mainstream media. The House Committee is considering a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. Additionally, some 24-hour diners in the tri-state area, especially in New Jersey, are beginning to shut down. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews WOR weeknight host Jimmy Failla. Jimmy will provide special red-carpet coverage for Fox News at the White House Correspondents' Dinner this Saturday. As festivities begin, Jimmy shares insights into navigating the political dynamics of the event and discusses how a comedian takes charge of the room.
