Summary

With Tehran threatening to target ships in the Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. ramping up its response, is the Iran conflict entering a dangerous new phase — with no clear off-ramp? Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down the latest escalations, as oil prices surge and gas prices climb nearly 50% since the start of the war. With the Trump administration fast-tracking billions in arms sales, and launching “Project Freedom” to guide vessels through the region, one key question looms: is this deterrence — or the beginning of something much bigger? They also unpack the political fallout at home, where new polling shows rising disapproval of Trump’s leadership, particularly on inflation and the cost of living. As support softens even among segments of his base, is the conflict abroad starting to erode his position domestically? Plus: a major new legal battle over access to abortion medication could reshape care nationwide, as courts weigh restrictions on mifepristone. Scott and Jess react to the growing buzz around Tucker Carlson’s political future as the GOP fractures deepen, and Kash Patel gets the SNL treatment.
