Iran War Update

On tonight’s show, I’ll discuss reports that the US and Iran quietly exchanged fire over a 24-hour period, including claims that Iran laid mines in the Gulf and that Iranian air defenses locked onto US fighters after American forces tried to stop them. We’ll also look at signs that Trump may already be softening his position on Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile after Tehran rejected the original US demand. And that matters, because Trump spent weeks insisting Iran would never be allowed to keep enriched uranium under any deal.

I’ll also cover a major new corruption story involving a Trump-family-linked Kazakh mining company that reportedly received a $900 million taxpayer-backed credit line from a federal agency. Then we’ll get into explosive new reporting about Kremlin propaganda operations after hackers breached the internal chats of a Russian PR firm allegedly tied to Moscow’s disinformation campaigns. The leaked messages reportedly show Russian operatives celebrating fake stories about Ukraine, fake scandals targeting foreign leaders, and even vandalism operations in France designed to inflame tensions and manipulate public opinion.

And finally, we’ll talk about Ukraine and the growing fear that Russia may be preparing a massive strike on Kyiv -- and whether Ukraine could retaliate with a major attack on Moscow itself. Plus audience questions, discussion about the show, and some updates on Sasha.
