Summary

Scott and Jessica unpack the rapidly escalating war between Israel and Iran under Trump’s leadership. As civilian casualties rise and Trump teeters on the edge of deeper U.S. involvement, millions of Americans take to the streets in the historic “No Kings” protests—pushing back against what many see as his authoritarian power grab. Meanwhile, the NYC mayoral race is turning into a defining battle for the soul of the Democratic Party, with progressive rising star Zohran Mamdani facing off against political heavyweight Andrew Cuomo in a generational showdown that could reshape the party’s direction.
