President Trump was reportedly furious on a phone call after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu authorized further strikes on Lebanon. This escalation may have jeopardized a potential ceasefire between Iran and the United States that was seen as a step toward a peace agreement. The big question: Who leaked the private call between Netanyahu and Trump? There’s speculation it could have been released intentionally by Trump to sway public opinion. New information is emerging about Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, with Mark sharing more insider details. Meanwhile, the Biden family's finances are reportedly under pressure, with former First Lady Jill Biden possibly promoting her book to help raise funds. Mark interviews Steve Forbes, chairman of Forbes Media. Steve and Mark discuss Zohran Mamdani’s policies and their impact on New York City’s economy, expressing concern that Mamdani’s approach as mayor is focused on control and could hurt the city’s finances. They also note Mamdani’s creative social media strategies, which proved highly effective for his own campaign and may have inspired other candidates in California’s governor’s race. Iran, during the ceasefire, has reportedly been rebuilding its military capabilities, especially its missile stockpiles. During a recent debate, candidates Dan Goldman and Brad Lander were asked about Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s reelection prospects, and their responses suggested his chances may be shaky. Delaney Hall in Newark, NJ, may be at risk of closure, according to the governor. Mark spotlights a CBS 60 Minutes segment accused of omitting key details during pandemic coverage and featuring a story on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s financial ties to Publix. Former NYC mayor Eric Adams was seen dining with Republican candidate Bruce Blakeman, sparking speculation that Adams may endorse him. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O’Reilly. They debate whether the economy is improving or stuck in neutral. Bill notes that raising prices while in debt only makes things worse. He also shares his excitement for the upcoming Knicks game. Trump is planning to end the slush fund used to reimburse January 6th participants. At CBS, anchor Scott Pelley’s future is uncertain after a heated dispute with executives in a recent meeting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
