Donald Trump, without consulting Congress or United States allies, orders the military to bomb Iran, and then claims that Iran and Israel have reached a ceasefire. Military and intelligence services push back on Trump's claims that Iran's three nuclear sites have been "completely and totally obliterated." MAGA isolationists change their tone to avoid Trump's ire. Jon, Lovett, Tommy, and Dan react to all the latest, including reports that nuclear material may have been removed before the attacks, Iran's retaliatory strikes on an American military installation in Qatar, and Trump's new posts indicating he may be open to regime change. Then, the guys walk through Democrats' response to the attacks, the latest from Trump's ongoing National Guard deployment in Los Angeles, and a New York City mayoral primary that's both frustrating and exciting.
Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. President Dad The latest developments in global politics, with a strong focus on President Donald Trump’s leadership in brokering a ceasefire between Iran and Israel. The hosts analyze the fragile -- but currently holding -- ceasefire, emphasizing Trump’s diplomatic strategy and his frustration with both nations’ initial violations. They liken his tone to that of a fed-up father trying to keep peace among unruly children, highlighting his relatable, no-nonsense communication style. The discussion underscores the significant military and strategic setback suffered by Iran, with Israel’s precision strikes dismantling key elements of Iran’s nuclear and missile infrastructure. The hosts argue that this outcome not only showcases Israel’s military superiority but also sends a powerful message to the Iranian regime and its people about the futility of continued aggression. They explore the psychological and political impact on ordinary Iranians, questioning whether the public will begin to challenge the legitimacy of their leadership in light of these failures. President Trump’s broader Middle East policy is praised for its emphasis on economic cooperation and regional stability, particularly through initiatives like the Abraham Accords. The hosts credit Trump’s business-first approach with fostering stronger ties between Israel and several Arab nations, contrasting this with Iran’s stagnation under hardline clerical rule. The Country is Doing Great a breakdown of the ongoing ceasefire between Israel and Iran, emphasizing President Trump’s pivotal role in brokering peace and preventing escalation. Clay and Buck dismantle media-driven fears of World War III, highlighting how oil prices have dropped to around $65 per barrel and the S&P 500 is near record highs—contradicting predictions of economic collapse. They credit Trump’s strategic leadership and economic policies, including tariffs, for maintaining market stability and national prosperity. Mark Simone on Why the NYC Primary Matters Clay and Buck's deep into the political upheaval surrounding the New York City mayoral race, offering sharp analysis and insider commentary on the Democratic primary and its national implications. WOR’s Mark Simone joins the program and breaks down the surprising momentum of socialist candidate Momani and the controversial comeback attempt by former Governor Andrew Cuomo. The discussion highlights Cuomo’s problematic legacy, including his role in implementing no-bail laws, closing prisons, and mishandling the COVID-19 nursing home crisis—policies that have driven residents and businesses out of New York in droves. The hosts explore how ranked-choice voting could dramatically influence the outcome, potentially delaying results for days and enabling strategic alliances among candidates. Simone predicts a rare five-way general election featuring Mamdani, Cuomo, current Mayor Eric Adams, Republican Curtis Sliwa, and another independent. The conversation underscores the broader political stakes, suggesting that New York City’s election could serve as a national barometer for the Democratic Party’s direction in the Trump era. Listeners also hear about the economic and social consequences of a potential Mamdani victory, including threats from major business owners to leave the city. The hour wraps with a broader reflection on the psychological resistance among liberal voters to admit policy failures, and how this mindset perpetuates urban decline in Democrat-led cities. This episode is essential listening for anyone tracking the 2025 political landscape, the resurgence of President Donald Trump, and the future of America’s largest city under the shadow of radical progressive politics. Dumb Democrats The hosts also critique the radical left, particularly New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, who advocates for socialist policies and extreme anti-Israel rhetoric. They draw attention to the broader Democratic Party’s internal chaos, spotlighting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s failed attempt to impeach President Trump over the Iran airstrikes. The impeachment vote—defeated 344 to 79, with 128 Democrats voting against it—underscores the disconnect between progressive activists and mainstream Democrats. President Trump’s energy and stamina are praised as he travels to Europe for NATO meetings immediately after intense diplomatic efforts in the Middle East. The show features clips of Trump lambasting CNN and MSNBC for their coverage of the Iran strikes, reinforcing his stance that Iran will not obtain nuclear weapons and may pivot toward becoming a trading nation. The hour wraps with commentary on the Oklahoma City Thunder’s peaceful championship celebration, a call for the team to visit the White House, and reflections on the Biden presidency. The hosts argue that President Biden’s legacy is unraveling, with revelations about his past behavior and leadership failures surfacing even among Democrats.

The first victim of Andrew Cuomo's serial harassment to come forward, former aide to the Governor Lindsey Boylan, takes a break from canvassing to join Bad Faith to remind the audience why no one should rank Cuomo. She explains why the Democratic Party has a crisis of credibility as a consequence of selectively weaponizing the #metoo movement for political ends, and Briahna shares her own tale of workplace harassment.

President Trump arrives in the Netherlands for the NATO summit after lashing out at Israel and Iran for allegedly violating his already fragile ceasefire. Israel's Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon reacts to President Trump's comments about the ceasefire lasting “forever.” Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.) discusses the latest assessment about Iran's nuclear program. NBC News White House Correspondent Vaughn Hillyard catches up with New York City Democratic mayoral primary frontrunners Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani on Election Day.
Listeners call in to share who they ranked in the primary election, including in races besides just the mayoral, and Brigid Bergin, WNYC's senior political correspondent, shares her most recent reporting on the election, including the latest on what we know about early voting numbers.
World War III is canceled — at least for now. That's where we are after one of the most dramatic weeks I can remember. The United States bombed Iran's nuclear facilities. Israel followed up with its own strikes. Iran responded with missile attacks on CENTCOM in Qatar. And somehow, through all that, we've landed at a ceasefire. It felt like this was going to spiral — like this was going to be Qasem Soleimani times ten. Instead, it fizzled. Iran's missile strikes were calibrated, coordinated with the Qataris, coordinated even with us. They hit the sand, not American soldiers. It was more about sending a message back home than actually escalating the conflict.And that's the strange brilliance of it all. Trump took the boldest action — destroying Iran's nuclear program — and managed to walk away looking like the peacemaker. The people who warned that this would unleash chaos — Tucker Carlson predicting tens of thousands of dead Americans, Steve Bannon talking about gas at $30 a gallon — they look like they overshot. Gas prices are lower. No Americans killed. And Trump's using this moment to reframe himself. He's not just the guy who kept his promise to stop Iran's nukes. He's the guy who did it without dragging America into another endless war. That's going to matter politically. It gives him an argument the MAGA base and the suburbs can both live with.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Israel's role here is important too. Make no mistake — this was their mission. They wanted Iran's nuclear capacity gone. Trump signed off on a limited U.S. role, but Rising Lion was an Israeli operation at its core. Their goal was never just to set the program back a few years. It was to shake the regime. You can see it in the name — Rising Lion, the symbol of Iran before the Islamic Revolution. They're trying to turn the clock back. And they knew this was their window. Iran's economy is fragile, its proxies are weakened, and Trump was willing to greenlight the hits. The question now is whether this creates the cracks in the regime they've been waiting for — or just rallies Iranians around the flag.The domestic political fallout has been fascinating. Never Trump Republicans who've trashed Trump for years — Bolton, Christie, Kinzinger, even Jeb Bush — lined up to praise him. And that's made MAGA a little uneasy. They didn't sign up for regime change wars. They signed up for America First. And now they're watching Trump get applause from the same people who cheered on Iraq. Meanwhile, Democrats are trying to resurrect the war powers debate, framing this as executive overreach. It's the rare moment where anti-war Republicans and Democrats are kind of saying the same thing. But for now, Trump's riding high. He promised strength without entanglement — and for the moment, he's delivered.The NYC Mayoral Primary: Cuomo Stumbles, Mamdani SurgesOver in New York City, the Democratic mayoral primary has become the most interesting race in the country. Andrew Cuomo should have been cruising. He had the name recognition, the machine, the donor network. But his campaign has been a disaster. He looks old, angry, and out of step. His message is all negative — all about why Mamdani is dangerous, not why Cuomo is right for the job. And the voters can feel that. It's a re-run of 2021 for Cuomo: defensive, brittle, uninspired. Meanwhile, Mamdani is doing what progressives often struggle to do. He's selling a vision. He's making people feel like the future could actually look different.Mamdani's campaign has been relentless. He turned a 14-mile walk from the bottom to the top of Manhattan into a social media juggernaut. TikToks. Instagram reels. Everywhere you look, there's Mamdani, talking to voters, talking about his ideas, looking like he actually wants the job. His policy platform is ambitious — some would say reckless — rent freezes, city-owned grocery stores, free public transit. But it's positive. He's offering something, not just fighting against something. That matters, especially in a city where voters are tired of politics as usual.The ranked choice system adds another layer of drama. Mamdani doesn't have to win outright on the first round. He just has to stay close enough that the second- and third-choice votes break his way. And given how much Cuomo is disliked even by his own side, that's very possible. The big donors are starting to notice. If Mamdani wins the primary, they'll flood Eric Adams with money for the general. They'll do it out of fear — fear that a Mamdani mayoralty would upend the city's power structures in ways they can't predict or control. And they're probably right.But even if Mamdani falls short, this race is a marker for where the Democratic Party is going. The fact that he got this far, this fast, tells you something about the appetite for progressive politics in urban America. Cuomo thought he could coast on his name and his record. Instead, he's found himself outworked, outmessaged, and outmaneuvered. And the rest of the party is watching. Because if Mamdani can do this in New York, somebody else can do it somewhere else. The future is up for grabs.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:39 - Iran-Israel Ceasefire00:17:53 - NYC Mayoral Primary00:28:00 - Update00:29:04 - Tariff Inflation00:31:18 - Big Beautiful Bill Voting00:34:48 - Trade Deals00:38:02 - Interview with Sam Feist01:11:11 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 140: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: We join the Trump Dictatorship, already in progress. He has attacked Iran, declared undeclared war on Iran, denied he wanted regime change there and is now insisting there should be regime change. And it's all because he has lost America. The Economist polling that has his OVERALL approval underwater in FIFTEEN states… that HE WON LAST YEAR. SEVEN under in Pennsylvania, FOUR under in Georgia, FOUR under in North Carolina, eight under in Michigan, eight under in Pennsylvania. Even CNN’s pollster Harry Enten says “I think we can say Trump has lost the political battle when it comes to what has happened in Los Angeles." CNN has Trump at -15 approval on his key issue: immigration, and -24 among independents. Trump attacked Iran because he has lost America. As a political observer wrote on January 17, 2012, “Obama will attack Iran in order to get re-elected.” And the SAME political observer wrote on October 9, 2012, “Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.” And the SAME political observer then wrote on September 16 2013 “I predict that President Obama will at some point attack Iran in order to save face,” and as the SAME political observer wrote on September 25, 2013 “Remember what I previously said, Obama will some day attack Iran in order to show how tough he is,” and how finally that SAME political observer wrote on November 10 2013 “Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly – not skilled” – and that political observer was… Donald J. Trump. I'll analyze the consequences of Trump's unconstitutional act - including angering Putin - and the hilarious moment when Pete Hegseth got the location of the target wrong. Plus Trump's nonsensical "I'd especially like to thank God," his lies about being opposed to Iraq, and the small victory: the Senate parliamentarian says they have to strip from the budget bill the move to limit the courts' ability to restrain Trump. B-Block (37:32) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: It's like Champions Week on Jeopardy: Mayor Eric Adams keeps digging, Jake Tapper keeps digging, and Stephen A. Smith is digging so hard to align himself with the reprehensible Candace Owens that at this rate Smith will be forcing ESPN to fire him. C-Block (50:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Of all the things you don't expect to come up on Jason Benetti's Detroit Tigers telecast is not one but two ex-pitchers confessing they still have dreams - thirty years later - that the anthem is playing, they are supposed to be pitching, but they cannot find their uniforms or that their shoelaces have been tied together. I'll explain why the mini-PTSD dream has become a nostalgic dream for these guys from my cohort: Frank Tanana, Dan Petry, and me.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The New York City mayoral primary is "dumb" and getting lots of "dumb attention," at least according to our (radically candid) guest. Democratic voters face a choice between disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, and the inexperienced socialist state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani. There's another candidate who was just arrested by ICE, which may shake up this race at the VERY end. The City's Harry Siegel joins Sarah for a wide-ranging conversation about New York City's politics today. By The City: The City's Meet Your Mayor Quiz FAQ NYC Podcast By Harry Siegel: NYC's lousy election rules create lousy choices Mamdani's moment for momentum: The surging socialist in the Democratic mayoral primary

There is, of course, Israel's war with Iran. And then there is the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, which will take place this Tuesday, June 24th. This year's NYC mayoral election is of particular consequence because of 33-year-old self-proclaimed socialist Zohran Mamdani, to many Jewish New Yorkers because of his positions on antisemitism and Israel. In college, Mamdani co-founded “Students for Justice in Palestine.” Now, while he claims to be concerned about raising antisemitism, he defends the phrase “globalize the intifada.” When asked about his position on Israel two weeks ago, Mamdani said that as mayor, he would bring NYC back into compliance with international law, suggesting that the city administration's support for Israel is illegal.To unpack this significant election cycle, we are joined by Howard Wolfson, who leads the Education Program of Bloomberg Philanthropies. From 2010 to 2013, Howard served as the NYC Deputy Mayor for Government Affairs and Communications – where he oversaw local, state, and federal government relations, with particular involvement in the education, transportation, and technology sectors. Howard currently runs Former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg's SuperPAC and continues to advise Bloomberg on matters of politics and communications.–CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingMAYA RACKOFF - Operations DirectorGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

First, Bill de Blasio, former mayor of New York City, explains why he does not think Andrew Cuomo should be the next mayor of New York City, plus responds to the New York Times editorial that blamed his administration for many of the city's problems, then New York State Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn (D-42) chair of the Kings County Democratic County Committee, offers her reasoning for why she has endorsed Andrew Cuomo to be the next mayor.
Early voting in New York City's mayoral primary race is well underway, and the rest of the country is watching.

David also talks with former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio to understand what's truly at stake in the election

A new Marist University poll shows former Gov. Andrew Cuomo holding his lead in the Democratic primary for mayor, but the race is tightening. Could Queens Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani have enough time to close the gap? Meanwhile, the shocking arrest of mayoral hopeful and City Comptroller Brad Lander at an immigration court made headlines this week. Will the high-profile incident give his campaign a boost? NY1's investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan break down a high-action week on the campaign trail. After that, the race for city comptroller heats up. Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine and Brooklyn Councilman Justin Brannan share progressive values but differ in political style. Will a Bernie Sanders endorsement give Brannan the boost he needs to overtake Levine? The "Off Topic" team weighs in.
With the June 24 primary almost upon us, could Queens Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani pull off an upset over Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic race for mayor? Could City Comptroller Brad Lander capitalize on his arrest by federal immigration officials and make a last-minute push? Gerson Borrero is a journalist, radio host and political commentator who appears weekly on NY1's “Inside City Hall.” He's also the former editor-at-large of City & State and former editor-in-chief of El Diario/La Prensa, the largest Spanish-language newspaper in New York City. He joined Errol to discuss various angles of the primary. Borrero shared his analysis of the slate of candidates, the influence of the Working Families Party, and the potential impact of alliances between candidates.
Next week Democrats will pick their nominee for New York City's next mayor, and polls show two clear frontrunners: Zohran Mamdani, who wants to freeze rent and open government grocery stores. And former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is selling his experience and asking voters to look past the scandals that forced his resignation. Yet ranked-choice voting also makes it unpredictable.
