The president isn't the most reliable narrator when it comes to his war in Iran.

You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war.

Support of the show and it comes from The Guardian.

If you listen to our show, my guess is that you value independent voices and perspectives on the news.

They have new perspectives on culture, wellness, sports and more.
