Summary
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Dinesh D'Souza and Brandon Tatum about how Donald Trump's risky bet with the Iran War paid off even as his tactics outraged both the left and the right; White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explaining in blunt language how NATO failed and why Mark Rutte may have a hard time convincing Donald Trump to not pull America out of NATO; NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte sounding defensive as CNN's Jake Tapper asks him about Donald Trump pulling troops out of NATO countries that did not support the U.S. during the Iran War; Donald Trump threatening to leave NATO after Spain denied the U.S. access to their bases and airspace to conduct the Iran War; Iranian-American Dr. Mahsa Tehrani telling Fox News why Qasem Soleimani's niece Hamideh Soleimani Afshar is finally getting what she deserved after ICE started deportation proceedings; "This Week on the Internet" featuring Tucker Carlson, Marco Rubio, Kim Jong Un, the Master of the Universe trailer, Zohran Mamdani, Cardi B, and of course the the Easter Bunny; and much more.

Dinesh, before we do anything, can you show your glass again? Because you're a serious pundit. You're a very thoughtful guy. Do a lot of interesting things.
