Summary
Ravi kicks off the show by tackling Trump’s Mar-A-Lago press conference and Joe Rogan's endorsement of RFK Jr.
Next, Ravi welcomes Isaac Saul from Tangle and Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, a senior fellow at The Atlantic and a U.S. citizen from Gaza, to discuss the current state of the presidential race. They debate Kamala Harris's choice of Tim Walz as her running mate, examine the pro-Palestinian movement’s reaction, and explore why Harris did not choose Josh Shapiro.
Finally, Ravi, Ahmed, and Isaac turn to the escalations in the Gaza War since Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in Iran. They look at how Hezbollah may respond to recent Israeli strikes in Lebanon, and discuss Hamas’s decision to appoint Yahya Sinwar—the architect of the October 7th attacks—as its new leader and how it could impact the chances of achieving a ceasefire and a long-term resolution.
