Brad and Dan dig into another whirlwind week in Trumpworld, beginning with the unveiling of a towering gold-leaf Donald Trump statue at his Doral golf resort and the increasingly explicit fusion of political power, religious symbolism, and personality cult. The hosts unpack Trump's comments that he does not think about Americans' financial struggles while simultaneously pushing a pro-natalist agenda alongside figures like RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz. From “under-babied” rhetoric to Heritage Foundation proposals incentivizing marriage and large families, the episode traces how Christian nationalism, wellness culture, patriarchal masculinity, and reactionary family politics are converging into a broader authoritarian vision for American life. Along the way, Brad and Dan connect these themes to neoliberal economics, the collapse of affordable childcare and healthcare, and the deep contradictions at the heart of conservative family policy. The second half of the episode turns to a lawsuit against Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins over religiously coercive emails sent to federal employees, offering a concrete example of how Christian nationalism operates through state power and workplace culture. Brad and Dan examine how the Trump administration simultaneously promotes an “anti-Christian bias” narrative while embedding conservative Christianity into federal governance. They also discuss a new study showing that corporations rolled back DEI initiatives largely due to direct pressure from Trump and his allies, highlighting the administration's broader effort to reshape public institutions around a narrow vision of American identity. The episode closes with reflections on resistance inside federal agencies, the Supreme Court's decision not to restrict access to abortion medication, and why ordinary people continuing to assert their rights still offers reason for hope.

Welcome to the first episode of True Thirty 30 | a new weekly conversation where Joey and his Producer Sean X break down the biggest stories, questions, and cultural moments shaping the week.In this episode, we discuss Iran, rising gas prices, tariffs, farming pressures, and the symbolism behind the “Golden Calf” controversy. We also talk about diesel prices, California regulations, global trade pressures, and the strange state of modern political culture.TIMESTAMPS0:00 Welcome to True Thirty 0:42 Iran War Questions 1:03 Gas Prices and Taxes 2:47 California Gas Island 3:41 Farmers Feeling the Squeeze 5:05 Tariffs Fertilizer and Margins 7:10 No End in Sight 8:01 Asymmetric War Explained 12:06 Hormuz and Global Ripple 13:29 Trump China and Ceasefire 14:57 Generational Farms at Risk 16:32 Golden Calf Statue Story 22:50 Wrap Up and SubscribeFULL TRANSCRIPTJoey Dumont: Hello, everyone. We are doing something called True Thirty 30, which is basically an idea of our members reaching out to us over the weekend with stories that they thought were either crazy, unfounded, or they wanna know more about. So that's what we're doing today. Some of the subjects, we're gonna cover the Iran war for all the obvious reasons.Joey Dumont: We're gonna talk a little bit about some of the deleterious effects of that war specific to farming. And we're gonna end the conversation with the golden calf discussion. In case you guys don't know what that is, you will soon find out. So I'm here with my producer, Sean X, and we are gonna go through these topics, um, as best as possible.Joey Dumont: Hey, buddy.Sean X: Hey. How you doing?Joey Dumont: I'm doing well. It's a happy Monday.Joey Dumont: So I don't know, why don't you share some of the comments we got specific to the... Well, they wanna know more about what's going on in Iran.Joey Dumont: For the most part, people have said, “Okay, what's the nuance with the war going in Iran?”Joey Dumont: Because we keep on hearing it's on again, it's off again. It's affecting prices. It's not affecting prices. Yeah.Joey Dumont: So The New York Times has Iran war long-term energy discussions specific to Iran defended its demands for a peace deal, and President Trump called them garbage.Joey Dumont: Mr. Trump said he wanted to suspend the federal gasoline tax. So obviously everyone knows that gas has been affected by the Straits of Hormuz being shut down because of this war. We're now seeing gas prices at what, six- Six, si- six.Sean X: It's $6.35Joey Dumont: For regular?Sean X: For regular in San Francisco. Yeah. It's $6.74 for premium, and it's-Joey Dumont: And diesel fuel is anywhere between 7 and 8Sean X: $7.80 for diesel.Joey Dumont: Um, a lot of it is from California policies, and some of it is from the pipelines or gas can't reach us. Yeah. We're a gas island. If a refinery goes down, we're screwed. So for the most part, we pay the worst gas prices, so we're feeling the biggest effect here.Joey Dumont: So we are up over a dollar compared to the rest of you folks out there in the United States of America.Joey Dumont: And Donald Trump wants to suspend the gasoline tax, which is how much? It's eight-Sean X: 18 cents.Joey Dumont: 18 cents.Joey Dumont: So- Do, do you know what 18 cents means for those of us in California?Joey Dumont: With the gas prices I just mentioned, it's 2 to 3%. Yeah, every little bit helps, but it's really our California regulations that are the things that are screwing us.Joey Dumont: I read a meme recently that said, uh, “Donald Trump is so awesome that my truck only used to hold $59 worth of gas and now it holds $130 worth of gas.”Joey Dumont: Which I thought was brilliant. Um, so whoever wrote that, good for you. Um, but yeah, the, the gas tax is not gonna help us and- for us, . No.Sean X: It's, it's not gonna help us.Joey Dumont: Like, what we need help with is all the regulations in our state- Yeah ... and let that make us... A lot of people don't understand.Sean X: We use different gasoline here.Joey Dumont: We do. We do. And it's actually called CARB, um, which stands for California Air Resources Board, in case you guys have never heard of it, ‘cause I sure haven't. And it basically means that our gas burns cleaner, reduces smog, lowers certain pollutants, and it's chemically different from gasoline used in the rest of the country.Joey Dumont: So when they say that we're a gas island or a, an actual island on its own, that's what they mean by our taxes. So yeah, I don't think the, uh, suspending the gasoline tax is gonna work. And by the way, he has to get congressional approval to do so. So there's another wrinkle.Joey Dumont: Dude- Uh, we'll see ... we need, we need, we need more help th- than from the federal government.Joey Dumont: So those are all problems, I can say that we have an issue with.Joey Dumont: But As we know, this is affecting everyone, not only the day-to-day people, but farmers specifically because a lot of farmers use diesel fuel as opposed to regular fuel. And, um, so let's talk a little bit about that, dude. I just moved back to Minnesota to be with my mommy, uh, for her 86th birthday, and, uh, it was cool.Joey Dumont: And I don't know, I think most of our listeners understand that I grew up there. I've been in California for now 44 years, and I have a lot of buddies both from high school here in California, as well as the people I grew up with in Minnesota who are in the farming business.Sean X: Yeah. They're also tend to be more conservative than out, uh, out in California.Joey Dumont: I mean, it's- All my friends from Minnesota are Red Hatters. Not all, but most. And then most of my relatives are Red Hatters as well. I've been talking to them for the four years that I've been reporting on politics. They come to me because they say I don't judge them, and that, you know, they know I love them.Joey Dumont: And so they're just like, “Joey, what's actually going on?” Yeah. And that's kind of why we wanted to start this program as well, is that it's, if I'm reaching out to my Republican friends all the time on a DL basis, which is kind of funny, um, they don't explain to everyone else, “Hey, I called Joey.Joey Dumont: I wanted to know what's going on.” That's really what I try to do with my friends and relatives the other side of the aisle, if you will.Joey Dumont: And what we tried to explain to them specific to gas is that I have a buddy of mine who's a soybean farmer, in the Midwest, and he called me previous to the election and said, you know, “What do I need to know?”Joey Dumont: And I tried to explain to him, I said, “Hey, buddy, look at where you're getting your potash,” because I knew he was actually getting potash. Potash, about 80% of our potash comes from Canada. In Project 2025, the Trump administration announced that they actually did want to tariff potash. And I told my buddy, I said, “Hey, just if you can, try to find another source.Joey Dumont: Look at supply chain issues. Figure out that specific to your EBITDA,” because farms, if you guys don't know out there, farmers run at a very small margin to begin with. And if there's increased prices specific to tariffs, which is on the potash, the Mexico-Canadian free trade agreement that Trump actually launched in 2017, which was a good free trade agreement, he blew it up, said it was the worst deal ever, and now we have supplies specific to John Deere, other maintenance issues that are going across the borders of Mexico and Canada, which is also putting up their prices.Joey Dumont: And some of the things that I talked about specific to the numerous farmers that I've talked to over the last month- Is that the Farmer Bureau is actually saying that, and I'll just repeat it here, “Fertilizer pre-booking rates up 19%. 70% of farmers being interviewed are unable to afford all the fertilizer they need,” so they're actually planting less, “And farm diesel prices have increased by 46% since the end of February.”Joey Dumont: So nearly six in 10 farmers report worsening finances, rising fertilizer, fuel cost during plant season, and the immediate economic assistance to keep these open is probably gonna help this year, but they're worried, they're very worried about next year. Yeah. So that's the big-Sean X: So, well, a lot of them, as you said, they pre-book.Joey Dumont: So they'll pre- Well, they're running out. That's the problem.Sean X: They'll order, and now it's running out. Yeah. So now the effects are hitting them. Yeah. So what, what were their main concern to you? What, what are they asking you?Joey Dumont: They're just asking me what I think based on my reporting, based on the homework we're doing here at True Thirty to figure out, you know, what do you guys see an end to this war?Joey Dumont: President Trump has said very publicly that there is so much disarray in Iran that there is actually no leadership to negotiate with. And if you read up on this, the Iranian leadership specifically are a Basarashi-Sean X: Well, that is a problem when you bomb their leadership.Joey Dumont: I- Well, he did mention that. He did mention that. He didn't kill the people they wanted to replace, Khomeini. But, uh, yeah, I, I, I don't see an end to the war. Obviously, there's a lot of people talking about that. We've had some war correspondents on the show to talk about the externalities of this war and the longevity and the possibly forever war specific to anything in the Middle East based on our history, based on us being the United States.Joey Dumont: I think what we're gonna try to explore here at True Thirty, some of the experts we're bringing on in the next couple months will be talking about what they have referred to as a asymmetric war, and the war is no longer about kinetic destruction.Sean X: Joey. What do you mean by,, asymmetric war?Joey Dumont: Great question. So asymmetric war in this sense is that historically kinetic war, we have big battleships, we have destroyers, we have the biggest military in the world.Joey Dumont: Iran's known this for as long as it's existed. So the way they fight us means the asymmetry to what we're doing. So if we're launching at $4 million-Sean X: It's not, it's not equal. Yeah. Like, it's like if we, we can't- It's not equal ... we can't launch $10 million missiles at $10,000 drones all day.Joey Dumont: There you go.Joey Dumont: That's it. Okay. That's a big piece of it. There's also something called mosquito boats. So there's these little tiny boats with engines and people and guns, and they go after the big boats, like our destroyers, and that's how they're actually taking Straits of Hormuz under siege, if you will.Joey Dumont: They only- So basically, they're not blowing up anything now, but they're, they're essentially taking it hostage because of these things.Joey Dumont: Through strategies that involve less dollars. Yeah. They have mines-Joey Dumont: A lot less dollars ...Joey Dumont: they plant a bunch of mines in the Straits of Hormuz because there's most of the narrow ways, some actual throughput is, like, two miles wide. It's very narrow, so they can actually take from the ground, from the coasts and defend it.Joey Dumont: They can defend it with the mosquito boats that I was talking about. They can defend it with drones. And then something that not a lot of people talk about is the topography o- of Iran to begin with. It's approximately four times the size of Iraq, and I mention that because when we had a surge in Iraq, um, I think we had 170,000 soldiers during the surge, 150,000 now.Joey Dumont: And one of the big things, and I think this, we learned this in our interview with Tom Shanker, uh, the New York Times war correspondent.Joey Dumont: Dude, that was a great interview, man.Sean X: Yeah, he's so smart.Joey Dumont: I think you were right about Bibi. I think, like, he convinced Trump- that's my guess. I have to, I, I think- Yeah.Joey Dumont: Like, I'm sorry, man. It's like, dude, someone said, somebody said “If we go into Iran, the people will rise up.” Yes. The problem is the people had just risen up, and they got slaughtered. Wow, that's- I mean, if you take out 10 to 20,000 protesters, guess what? All the people that are likely to lead the charge are gone.Joey Dumont: Wow. And yes, and, and people see people being slaughtered, that's not good for them either. So yeah, I mean, that's what I mean by asymmetric war, buddy.Joey Dumont: That's where we are today.Joey Dumont: Dude.Joey Dumont: So I think one of the things that we can admit across the board is that we, America, have proven to be unbelievably powerful in our military might.Joey Dumont: So what we did in Venezuela, where we swooped in and pulled out Nicolás Maduro in the middle of the night, put him in Rikers Prison, maybe one of the most efficient, wonderfully produced smashes-Sean X: Efficient leadership changes, yeah.Joey Dumont: Yeah, I mean, just... Well, I mean, it actually, the regime change didn't happenJoey Dumont: I think that was where Donald Trump got very excited about how he can go into other countries. And with Netanyahu coming in specifically to his war room and saying, “Hey, I think we can go-” Iran's weak. I think we can get them today.Joey Dumont: Let's go after them. Obviously, that's what took place on February 28th. Now we're seeing, you know what? Eight, seven, eight weeks later, , this very small military excursion, as he called it, has moved into a full-blown war.Joey Dumont: But back to my Republican friends and farmers, everything they mentioned to me in my one-on-ones with them, their fertilizer, their diesel fuel, their supplies, their maintenance, they're scared-Joey Dumont: they're going under. These are places that operate on, like, a 3 to 5% margin if they're lucky.Sean X: Yeah, now it's going up.Joey Dumont: And we're talking about 20... Yeah, and you're talking about, expenses that are just through the roof. Yeah. We talked about the farmers. There's also global aspects of this. Yeah.Joey Dumont: I mean, the Strait of Hormuz closing is most important to Japan, South Korea, China, and India. Yeah.Sean X: And you mentioned to me, one of, one of our members was literally asking about... Because they are international- Yeah ... they were asking about the international effect that this is having.Joey Dumont: Well, Prime Minister Modi actually asked all of his 1.4 billion citizens to cut back on gas and anything to do with,, fertilizer or anything to do with the things that we now have a shortage in.Joey Dumont: LNG, if, for those who don't know-Sean X: Liquid natural gas ...Joey Dumont: it's liquefied natural gas. Liquified natural gas is something that most people have never really talked about but please understand it's this: what we use LNG for is fertilizer, intensive food, electronics, textiles, plastics, household utility bills.Joey Dumont: Again, guys, what we're gonna try and do is bring some experts on the show to talk to these specifically. We're gonna bring some economists on, and we're gonna talk about the longevity of this war. Is it possible with the ceasefire? What does that mean?Joey Dumont: Well, uh, the, the nature of warfare has changed. I, it- People, and this is where I'll totally agree with Republicans, like people are growing frustrated with a war that is literally only 60 days old.Sean X: Yeah. It's just the fear of the effects long term.Joey Dumont: So Trump is going to China. What do you think he hopes to accomplish there?Joey Dumont: I think he hopes to accomplish some type of a trade deal. I don't know if he's gonna jump down on the, the tariffs or not, but I do know that this Iran war is not helping his negotiations with XiJoey Dumont: because obviously America is the biggest foe of China. I do know that there's rumor around the campfire that Donald Trump is trying to negotiate numerous deals specific to tariffs and opening up more markets here in America that he's shut down based on his, 100% or 145% tariff, I think, in the beginning of his first or second administration.Joey Dumont: The sad part about all this is that there's, there's no end in sight with anything to do with what's going on in Iran. Lebanon obviously is a big issue with that because Donald Trump wants to negotiate with Netanyahu to say, “Hey, we need you to stop bombing in Lebanon because that's part of our ceasefire agreement, and you're violating that.Joey Dumont: And if that's violation, if that continues to happen, then the ceasefire itself stops, and then we're right back to a kinetic war.” Bibi isn't listening. Let's just say that. Bibi's not listening. He's doing what he wants to do because he got us into this war, I think, and I don't think he wants us to leave anytime soon, and this is more of his issue specific to his place in the Middle East and the surrounding countries that have not been a big fan of him for many years now.Joey Dumont: So yeah. Yeah.Joey Dumont: I, I don- I wish I had better news for my friends, specifically in the farming business because it is... It's been really scary to talk to some of these people. And then, you know, the one-on-one conversations are different than the stuff we're reading from.Sean X: Yeah.Joey Dumont: Sitting down and talking with farmers who have, you know, third, fourth, fifth generation, farms that they're very proud of.Joey Dumont: And these are not big farms, by the way. These, you know, 1,000 acres, 2,000 acres. These are not huge farms. The farm my, my grandpa used to work when I was growing up I think was 400 acres. Um, and these are the typical farmers you read about growing up. You know, they jump on their tractors-Sean X: Yeah, these aren't, these aren't the big agribusinesses.Joey Dumont: No. These are your mom-and-pop farmers- These are mom-and-pop farmers ... just trying to, you know, waking up at 5:00 every morning- Yeah ... working 18-hour days.Joey Dumont: Yeah. Yeah. All day, every day till the sun drops, and then they go back and eat, and then they re- rinse and repeat. Yeah. And they're very s- they're very scared because, again, these are generational, and these farmers that I talk to specifically don't have any other skills.Joey Dumont: They've been doing this their whole life. They were born and raised on these farms. They watched their father go through exactly what they're now going through. There is some diversification in s- there's some big pig farmers that I talk to that are doing well on that, but the guys that are planting soybeans, corn, and wheat, and the typical commodities, they're very scared for all the aforementioned reasons, right?Joey Dumont: The fertilizer itself, the price of their supplies, their maintenance, the upkeep on their tractors, their combines, all that stuff, it's, it's pricey and it's, and it's scaring them.Joey Dumont: Okay. We'll get an update, on that issue. Yeah.Joey Dumont: One of the other big questions that I've got right in front of me from one of our members, and many people ask this, what is about this golden calf?Joey Dumont: It's probably good to end this on a little bit of a whimsical piece. So in case you guys don't know, Donald Trump had a golden statue erected in his honor at Doral, which is one of his golf courses here in the United States. It's 22 feet. It weighs seven tons. And if you guys aren't aware of the old story specific to the Bible-Sean X: With MosesJoey Dumont: Yeah. So- ... Exodus 32, I'm a recovering Catholic, so I know a little bit about this story. Um, it was when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the Bibles, or excuse me, with, with- The Ten Commandments ... Ten Commandments Ten Commandments. And he saw this golden calf that Aaron had a- had built for the staff because they needed an, an idol to worship.Joey Dumont: Moses was pretty pissed, to paraphrase. And he shattered the tablets, and then he melted down the golden calf, and he made all of the Israelites drink it. So not happy about that. Fast-forward to 2026, Donald Trump has erected a calf. Now,Sean X: who g- who gave, who gave this to him?Joey Dumont: Uh, it was a gift, and the Pastor Mark Burns was the one orchestrating this piece at the Trump National Doral in Miami, and he said this, to quote, “Let me be clear. This is not a golden calf,” he said. “This statue is a celebration of life. It is a symbol of resilience, freedom, patriotism, strength, and the willpower to keep fighting for the future of America.” Now, this was the statue from Trump's attempted assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania, which was obviously awful.Joey Dumont: Where he said, “Fight, fight, fight.” And they wanted to capture that moment for the remainder of time to prove how brave he was in, in the circumstance. He was pretty brave or foolish, but he was.Joey Dumont: If the pastor has to say, “This is not a golden calf”- Yeah ... that's an issue. Yeah. Like, you know, it, it's r- it reminds me of when Trump did that post a couple weeks ago, and he took it down because there was controversy of it.Joey Dumont: The Jesus post?Joey Dumont: The Jesus post. Yeah, yeah. He's like, this... You know, and then he comes out and he says, “I'm not being Jesus here.” Right. It's like, you know, don't tell people to not believe their eyes. So when I look at this 22-foot golden monument to Trump, like, how is that not a golden calf?Joey Dumont: Well, it is... And I think that's the funny thing, too, is check this out.Sean X: So there was a show called The Boys, and- Oh, my God ... have you seen it?Joey Dumont: Oh, it's a great show. My mom watches it. Okay. So- She's 85, by the way- All right ... watching superhero stuff.Joey Dumont: So Eric Kripke is... I guess he put, “What the fuck? Seriously?” And this idea, this is what he wrote on Instagram- So who, who is he? ... over the weekend.Sean X: Who is... He's one of the actors.Joey Dumont: He's the showrunner.Sean X: He's the showrunner.Joey Dumont: Okay, got it. And he said, “Seriously, what the fuck?” over a split image of a golden statue of Homelander from episode six of The Boys and the golden statue of Donald Trump. So in the sixth episode of the show features a larger than life golden Homelander statue.Joey Dumont: The psychotic leader of The Seven proclaims that he is the new Messiah following a visitation by an angel. So the showrunner, this was July of 2025, and he's saying everything that we put in here as parody about a ridiculous man trying to be the Messiah has now come to fruition. Except-Sean X: I've seen that.Joey Dumont: The craziest thing about it is- Except it happened here ... if you look at that statue that they had in that episode, I mean, it's obviously not the same pose as Trump- No ... but- It's so close ... it is so clo- Dude, it is so close He's got his arm out like this. He's got...Joey Dumont: and maybe because that was the JC being on the cross, all that.Joey Dumont: So, so they're like- But it's the same fucking A ... this is not a golden calf. Trump is not Jesus in this post. No. The, the showrunner for The Boys has basically come out and say... Now, the character on the show, the character on the show is one of the worst characters, right?Joey Dumont: Well, he's the Antichrist in this story.Joey Dumont: He's the Antichrist.Joey Dumont: But this is, and this is Pastor Burns again, to continue this quote, “We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone,” he wrote on his social media. “Honor is not worship. Respect is not idolatry, and celebration is not bowing down to a false god.” So again- This is not a golden- It's right out of Central Casting.Joey Dumont: If you wanted to write a script- about what not, what isn't real while you're actually looking at what is real. This just took place in our life as citizens of the United States of America, and yeah, I don't think, I don't think there's enough, there's not enough jokes. I mean, the good news is there's plenty of jokes now.Joey Dumont: The memes are going everywhere with this. But the idea too, in case you haven't heard this, was that Donald Trump, who's never actually opened a Bible much less ridden it-Sean X: No, he opened a Bible. I saw him open a Bible.Joey Dumont: All right, true. But he's never read it.Joey Dumont: He opened the Bible that he held upside down- Down.Joey Dumont: True, true, true ... if you don't remember. He held it upside down when he was front of the church and he opened the Bible that he put, the Declaration of Independence in and the Bill of Rights, ‘cause he sold that once.Joey Dumont: Well, in his defense, in his defense he's probably never seen a picture of Jesus, so if he didn't think- ... he looked like Jesus, it, it actually might have been part of it. But I also heard this, and I have nothing to confirm this is true or not, but they said that either Caroline Leavitt or one of his comms people said, “Hey, Mr. President, say that the f- photo was doctored and that you had nothing to do with that.” I don't know if that's true, and then he came out and said, “Oh, I was supposed to be a doctor.” So I don't know if that's true or not, but it's one of those things where I just can't get over how silly this whole thing is and how...Joey Dumont: I thought it'd be good just to, uh, yeah- Yeah ... run this story through the ringer to- Yeah ... bring our- So- ... bring our members some fun-Sean X: That's the- ... on a Monday morning ...Sean X: true Thirty this week, and let's end it on this-Joey Dumont: Sounds like a good idea, buddy ...Sean X: pathetic note of the golden calf.Sean X: Thank- Thank you guys forJoey Dumont: listeningJoey Dumont: thank you. Thank you, Joey. Cheers. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.truethirty.com/subscribe

On this week's Substack LIVE conversation, Charlie Sykes and Matt discuss:— Charlie's Suspension from X/Twitter: Charlie details being locked out after criticizing Elon Musk's racist and antisemitic posts, with his pre-2024 election history erased. — Cultural Satire Mirroring Reality: Charlie is seeing strong parallels between Trump and Homelander from The Boys TV show. — Trump's Distracted Narcissism: Trump is preoccupied with a golden statue at Doral, a blue reflecting pond, and a ballroom renovation while facing a critical summit with Xi Jinping and volatile Iran brinkmanship. — Democratic Strategy for Midterms: My advice: Focus on pocketbook issues like gas prices, inflation, and Trump family corruption (including the failed “Trump Phone” scam). But Charlie also thinks Democrats can channel the Epstein scandal as a way to neutralize the Trans issue…. — Candidate Quality and Gerrymandering Wars: Is Graham Platner really the best choice for Maine Democrats? Plus, Virginia's redistricting battles — and the long-term damage of aggressive gerrymandering. — Broader Political and Moral Concerns: Charlie and Matt lament the loss of America's moral high ground, while Charlie stresses the importance of maintaining open debate and inconvenient truths.— And much, MUCH more!Subscribe to Matt Lewis on Substack: https://mattklewis.substack.com/Support Matt Lewis at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattlewisreels/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

This week on Pivot the Path, Scott breaks down one of the most remarkable weekends across the tours — and the through-line is something every golfer (and every human) can take away.Cam Young goes wire-to-wire at Doral and wins by six — but one simple moment has nothing to do with the scorecard. He called a penalty on himself that nobody else saw. Then birdied the next hole. That's not just integrity. That's freedom.Nelly Korda is doing something that's never been done. Six events. Zero finishes outside the top two. She's now in the same breath as Annika Sorenstam — and she's doing it with a process, not a highlight reel.And Mikael Lindberg? He won a DP World Tour title in Turkey — and a PGA Championship berth he didn't even know he was playing for. Showed up fully, week after week, and the reward found him.Scott unpacks the Self-Penalty Principle — the idea that we often know exactly where we've let something slide.

This episode of the 2nd Swing Thoughts Podcast brings you expert insights from the tour van at Hazeltine. Join Drew Mahowald and Harrison Arnold as they welcome fitting legend Larry Bobka for a deep-dive Fitting Q&A session. The guys recap a dominant performance by Cameron Young at the Cadillac Championship and a historic, "Tiger-esque" run by Nelly Korda. From the impact of a simple golf ball switch to the rare "Tour-only" equipment adjustments made by players like Tommy Fleetwood and Justin Rose, this episode is packed with technical analysis for the dedicated golfer.
Let’s catch-up on a variety of sports action from the past weekend. NBA 1st Round Playoffs and the Tragic Orlando Magic When a basketball team (at any level) misses 23 straight shots during a game, that team is more than likely going to lose. The NBA’s #8 seed Eastern Conference Orlando Magic was at home on Friday night. They were leading the #1 Detroit Pistons 3-2 in their best-of-seven series. The Magic raced out to a 60-38 halftime advantage and had their home crowd ready to celebrate the team’s biggest first round upset in history. Then they played the second half. The Orlando Magic couldn’t hit the proverbial broad side of a barn over the final two quarters. Orlando scored just 11 points in the third quarter. The fourth quarter produced a paltry eight points. At one point, the Orlando Magic missed 23 consecutive shots. The tiny 19-point second half total in Game 6 was the lowest ever recorded in the NBA’s long playoff history. Detroit was easily able to overcome the 22-point halftime deficit and won 93-79 to even the series at three games apiece. Sunday night’s Game 7 found Detroit back at home to win the finale 116-95. The #1 East seed Pistons advance into Round 2 this week against #4 Cleveland. On Monday morning, the Orlando Magic announced the firing of fifth-year coach Jamahl Mosley. As I have mentioned over the years, it’s a lot easier for a professional sports team’s ownership to fire the head coach rather than an entire roster of players. That coach wasn’t on the floor missing 23 shots in a row in Game 6. The Boston Celtics did, indeed, die by the 3-point shot Just like Orlando, the #2 Eastern Conference #2 seed Boston Celtics took at 3-1 series lead before losing three straight games to the #7-seeded Philadelphia 76ers. As we covered a few weeks ago, the Boston Celtics thrive or die by their ability to make 3-point shots. The NBA’s fourth-most prolific 3-point shooting team during the regular season clanked home just 13 of 49 long-distance shots (27%) in a 109-100 Game 7 home playoff loss to Philadelphia Saturday night. The Celtics blew a 3-1 playoff advantage for the first time in the team’s storied history. Boston had been 32-0 all-time when leading by such a wide margin. This year’s Celtics also lost three of the four games played in their hometown at historic Boston Garden. Philadelphia 76ers fans rejoiced after their team finally won a decisive Game 7 playoff game on the road in Boston for the first time since Julius “Dr. J.” Erving played for the Sixers in 1982. Saturday night’s Game 7 in Boston saw the visiting 76ers zoom to a 30-15 first quarter advantage and never relinquish that lead. Boston played Game 7 without injured star forward Jayson Tatum. He was dealing with soreness in one of his legs and was held out of the game as a precaution. Tatum and his teammates will now have five months to recover, practice their outside shooting, and, perhaps, consider adding a legitimate inside presence prior to next season. The Houston Rockets failed to achieve a first round lift-off for the 2nd straight year Houston’s Rockets sizzled during the 2024/2025 regular season but fizzled in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. The team quickly reacted by adding veteran sharpshooter Kevin Durant to beef-up the Rockets’ scoring during the 2025/2026 season. Unfortunately, the NBA #5 Western Division seed Rockets crashed and burned in the first round of the playoffs once again. In the first two games against the #4 Los Angles Lakers, Kevin Durant sparkled on offense. Unfortunately, the other four Houston starters seemed to stand around and wait for their designated shooter to carry the offensive load. Durant was injured during Game 2 and didn’t play again for the rest of this series. The Rockets looked likely to win Game 3 but then blew a six-point lead in the final 30 seconds to go down 0-3 against 41-year old LeBron James and the Lakers. Houston found a way to win games 4 and 5 before getting drubbed 98-78 on Friday night in Los Angeles to conclude their season with a final loss. The Lakers played the entire series without two of its key starters – Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. Houston may be looking at a few shake-ups for the roster and, perhaps, the team’s coaching staff after a second straight one-and-done playoff performance. PGA Tour – Cameron Young put the sleeper hold on the rest of the field in Miami The PGA Tour finally returned to Miami’s famed Doral Country Club Blue Monster golf course this past week. While some golfers may have trembled while standing on the tee at the tour’s most difficult par-4 #18, stoic Cameron Young seemed to love every minute of it. The bearded 28-year old golfer with the signature pause at the top of his backswing was winless in his first five seasons on the PGA Tour. Notably, though, Young posted six top ten finishes in the tough golf majors in his early years on the tour. Cameron Young was overdue to win. Sundays’ victory became Young’s third title in the past nine months. He broke through with his first PGA victory in August, 2025 in Greensboro. Young added The Player’s Championship title in March for career win #2. Cameron Young told reporters Sunday, “When the golf course is difficult and the conditions are difficult, that tends to make it easier for me mentally. Young led from start to finish in all four rounds of the Cadillac Championship tournament at Doral. His 19-under par total was six shots clear of World #1 golfer and runner-up Scottie Scheffler. Cameron Young even called a one-stroke penalty on himself on the second hole as his golf ball wobbled on the fairway. He said, “Your heart sinks when you see it move, but it moved. That’s part of what golf’s about. There’s no one who is going to give me a penalty there but myself.” Keep your eye on this golfer in the upcoming PGA Championship, US Open, and The Open at Royal Birkdale in England. Savannah Bananas packed 102,000 BananaFans into Texas A&M’s Kyle Field Saturday It’s not football season yet, but you wouldn’t have known that in College Station, Texas on Saturday night. Kyle Field is the massive football stadium home of the Fightin’ Texas Aggies. On Saturday night, the stadium was filled with 102,000 fun seekers as baseball’s crowd-pleasing Savannah Bananas arrived to play (of course) the Texas Tailgaters. “BananaBall” has been sweeping the nation with sell-out crowds everywhere they play. This talented traveling team utilizes a number of “get the fans involved” humorous antics to help make baseball games more fun to watch. It’s baseball’s equivalent of the Harlem Globetrotters – except on steroids. Every Savannah Bananas baseball game becomes a party unto itself. The actual game (as if it really mattered) was won by the Texas Tailgaters 4-3. Speaking of baseball, NY Yankees’ legendary radio announcer John Sterling passed away early Monday at age 87 He was best known for his unabashed enthusiastic radio calls for his beloved New York Yankees. John Sterling’s signature game-ending calls of “The….Yankees win!” were enjoyed by fans in the New York City metropolitan area for 36 years beginning in 1989. At one point, John Sterling didn’t miss a Yankees radio broadcast for 5,060 consecutive regular season games. That was a span covering more than 30 seasons. The New York Yankees posted Monday, “John Sterling breathed life and excitement into Yankees games for 36 years while wearing his passion for baseball and the Yankees on his sleeve. The symmetry between John and his audience was both undeniable and magical.” John Sterling was at the microphone for the last five New York Yankees World Series championships. He retired in 2024 after the season ended. Sterling required heart surgery early in 2026. John Sterling’s enthusiasm and talent behind the mic will be sorely missed by all of us baseball fans.

Joe and Hollywood recap a busy South Florida sports weekend, highlighted by the Cadillac Championship at Doral and the F1 Miami Grand Prix, both delivering big moments for the city. In golf, Cameron Young stood out with a win over Scottie Scheffler and earned praise for calling a penalty on himself, sparking a larger conversation about integrity and cheating in golf and tennis, including references to players like Patrick Reed and the culture of bending rules in amateur sports. The discussion then shifts to reports that Miami may be removed from the Super Bowl rotation, with Joe pushing back and arguing the city is built for the biggest events despite the NFL potentially favoring colder markets. The segment also touches on Dolphins QB Malik Willis throwing out a rough first pitch at a Marlins game, adding a lighter local moment to the weekend recap.
Joe opens Hour 2 with reaction to a big sports weekend, starting with the Cadillac Championship at Doral where Cameron Young called a penalty on himself, sparking a broader conversation about accountability and integrity in golf. He and Hollywood joke about how rare that level of honesty can be, especially compared to the way some amateur golfers approach the game. The discussion then shifts to the Miami Grand Prix, which once again delivered a strong weekend for Formula 1 in South Florida and reinforced Miami's status as a major global sports hub. Later, Dave Hyde joins the show to weigh in on Miami's AD search, the PGA/LIV golf tension, and the Dolphins being removed from the Super Bowl rotation. The hour wraps with “Hollywood's Headlines,” covering everything from Spirit Airlines going out of business to record Kentucky Derby ratings and a chaotic Panthers merchandise sale.

For one final time, Andy joins Brendan from The Shed(!) for this Sunday recording as they look back on the formative years of this podcast. It's often said that the more things change, the more they stay the same, so it's nice that Cameron Young's dominant 2026 season remains in progress despite Andy leaving The Shed behind. Mr. 1,000 blitzed the field at the inaugural Cadillac Championship, defeating World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler by six in the end. This event was practically over on Friday afternoon and Cameron secured his third PGA Tour victory despite calling a penalty on himself for his ball moving at address on a day with Preferred Lies. Brendan found the whole week at Trump Doral sleepy and wonders if there's anything the PGA Tour can do to make events between majors truly stand out. The two discuss which PGA Tour events matter on their own and nearly all occur before the Masters. Andy gives major props to Cameron Young for his continued evolution into a top three player in the world and there's a debate whether the foursome of Young, Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Matt Fitzpatrick have separated themselves from the rest of the world. In other Doral news, Adam Scott looks likely to qualify for his 100th straight major, Justin Rose's McLaren irons didn't make it out of the garage, and Alex Fitzpatrick secured a top ten finish without his brother! Brendan and Andy then run through results from the rest of the world, including a back-to-back runaway win for Nelly Korda, a famous Michael winning on the DP World Tour, and a SECOND major championship win this year for now-Ryder Cup Vice Captain Stewart Cink. Lastly, Brendan wraps up this show with some... enthusiasm for a Game 7 performance from James Harden! Visit BDraddy.com and use promo code SGS30 for 30% off your 2026 Presidents Cup gear!

Send us Fan MailThis week on The Fresh Bunch, we're covering ground from Washington, D.C. to Doral. We discuss a few events that happened in the floral industry in April. But first, we get some motivation from Head Coach Mike, who breaks down big floral holidays the best way he knows how—through sports analogies and classic movie-style monologues. It's how his sales team stays focused when the pressure's on.Jimi heads to D.C. for his first SAF Congressional Action Days, representing the flower industry and sharing what really goes on in those meetings—plus a side conversation on the “bearded presidents” you didn't know you needed.Back in Miami, Mimi recaps the 6th Annual Doral Art & Flower Festival in the “City of Flowers.” From large-scale floral art to an AIFD educational day focused on Miami and Latino designers, the event brought together a strong mix of creativity and community. With AIFD President Renee Tucci, Alejandro Figueira Fernandes, and a lineup of designers—including our own Olga Ramirez—it was a meaningful moment for education and representation in the industry.
LIV Golf might've learned something from Andy's weekend of garage sales as they're looking for buyers ahead of the 2027 season. Andy joins Brendan! from a very empty house for this First of the Month Recording packed with - you guessed it! - more LIV news from the golf story of the year. As first reported by Josh Carpenter, Yasir Al-Rumayyan is OUT as Chairman of LIV Golf, leaving his post on the league's Board of Directors as the Saudi PIF pulls its funding at the end of 2026. LIV replaced Yasir with two new board members on Thursday, one of whom has a long history of joining companies cleaning up the pieces after filing for bankruptcy. Andy and Brendan bat around some LIV takes, including what value, if any, Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm might actually bring to the PGA Tour if they were to return. Should LIV fold or look drastically different moving forward, it's decided that the biggest winner could be the DP World Tour with players such as David Puig and Tyrrell Hatton playing there full-time next year. Meanwhile, the PGA Tour is playing this week for another $20 million purse at Trump Doral, where True American Patriot Cameron Young broke the course record on a day with no wind in Miami. Justin Rose debuted his shiny new McLaren clubs en route to a disappointing score, but Brendan is especially appalled at the retail price of these new irons. In yet another example of wild money being spent on golf for unknown levels of return, Andy and Brendan then read a statement from Motor City Golf Club that accompanied a logo release for their first TGL season in 2027. After a Playoff Basketball Minute, Kevin Van Valkenburg stops by to share a B. Draddy Flashback Friday about an International Presidents Cup legend winning at Doral.

The guys also shift to the PGA Tour for the Cadillac Championship at Doral, highlighting bombers like Cam Young and a +10000 sprinkle on Aldrich Potgieter. Finally, they navigate the NBA and NHL playoffs, emphasizing the need to adapt to postseason trends, with a strong lean toward underdog series plays on the Canadiens and Utah Mammoth, plus a +4000 Conn Smythe dart on Tage Thompson.The Spread Zone is presented by @FanDuel Sportsbook!https://www.101espn.com/podcasts/the-spread-zone/LEGAL DISCLAIMERWe provide information about sports betting for entertainment purposes only.

Still reeling from last weekend's garage sale, Andy joins Brendan for this "efficient" Wednesday episode while on hold with an AI chatbot. The garage sale tales continue to begin the show, with Andy explaining the latest wrinkle in furniture sales around the Bay Area: the existence of toll bridges. After cleaning up the remaining fallout from Andy's weekend, Brendan transitions things to the ongoing LIV funding saga. It seems like more and more information comes out each day regarding the league's future, which Scott O'Neil reiterated was set for the remainder of 2026. That may be true, but the much-anticipated LIV New Orleans event scheduled for the end of June has now been postponed. This means that LIV will play zero events from June 7 to July 23, leaving players on their own to prepare for two major championships in between those dates. Andy and Brendan read through the press release from the State of Louisiana regarding the postponement and wonder what the rumored "exposition" LIV event coming to the Big Easy in the fall could possibly be. Andy settles on an idea that he thinks could salvage LIV and actually allow the tour to become somewhat financially viable, but doubts whether this will be put into practice. Speaking of financial viability, there's plenty of discussion about a possible Signature Event bubble on the PGA Tour with five top players skipping out on this week's Cadillac Championship. Despite the spotty attendance, the Tour returns to Trump National Doral's Blue Monster in Miami, now adorned with a "Gold Man" statue overlooking the driving range. Andy submits his list of 5 Guys to Monitor This Week, keying in on some players who might be extra comfortable with the amount of gold on the premises. One-and-done picks are made, as always, with Andy looking to stay hot after back-to-back wins at the Masters and RBC Heritage. A look at the remaining events on the Schedule of the Week brings us to Dick Teder's DP World Tour debut, yet another Champions Tour major, and Michael Block's continued domination at the PGA Professional Championship.

Tobin is still not over the Dolphins not picking Rueben Bain; but everyone seems to be liking the Proctor pick more and more. Pat Riley had his end of season press conference; and many were not happy with some of the things he had to say. Dave Mack from the PGA joins the show to share all things pertaining to the PGA Cadillac Tournament coming back to Doral! Tobin couldn't be happier that the Dolphins drafted a Brit and of course he must have some fun with his accent.
The crew dives deep into a packed day of Miami sports, starting with Tobin still hung up on the Dolphins passing on Rueben Bain—though the Proctor pick is starting to win fans over. Pat Riley stirs up plenty of reaction after his end-of-season comments, especially as he declines to address the growing situation surrounding Terry Rozier, with news of potential additional FBI charges leaving Tobin stunned at how it was handled. Golf fans get a boost as the guys welcome a PGA insider to talk about the return of the Cadillac Tournament to Doral, while Tobin celebrates the Dolphins drafting a British player in only the way he can. The show also features the chaos of “Damage Is Done,” touching on everything from Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini to random pop culture debates and some F1 frustration. Things lighten up when Tobin gets a shoutout on a Marlins broadcast for his love of Brad Penny, sparking a nostalgic conversation, before the focus shifts back to football with a look at which rookies could make the fastest impact this season. And finally, Tobin connects the dots on what he believes is the Miami Heat's long-term master plan—linking Nikola Jovic to Nikola Jokic in a bold 2027 free agency theory that might not be as crazy as it sounds.
After a 10 year hiatus, the PGA TOUR returns to Doral for the Cadillac Championship! We are back to talk why we are so excited for this event and why it could be a nice spot for a bounce back week for our guy Jordan Spieth. At the minimum, we chat why it's such an important week considering what went wrong at the RBC Heritage.We also discuss the ramifications of his intent to play the Truist Championship and how that could impact his upcoming schedule. Who plays well this week? Listen to the end to see who we are picking to do just that. Enjoy!
Golf's Preeminent Birthday Podcast makes a triumphant return to celebrate Andy Johnson's 40th birthday. The birthday boy is a bit worse for the wear after a "full swing" on Saturday night, but has plenty of stories to share with Brendan after his weekend running a garage sale. Andy's garage sale was NOT the only family-first event on the schedule this week as the Fitzpatrick brothers took home the trophy at the Zurich Classic. Matt Fitzpatrick might have wins in back-to-back weeks, but his younger brother, Alex, now has a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour and a spot in the upcoming PGA Championship thanks to a successful week in New Orleans. Andy and Brendan recap a chaotic finish to the PGA Tour's lone team event where it looked like nobody actually wanted to win before one of the best shots of the year from Matt Fitzpatrick on the 72nd hole. In non-Fitzpatrick takeaways, Andy is stunned to hear that Joseph LaMagna has sold off his Davis Thompson stock after a tough Sunday, and Tom Hoge was spotted at the casino late on Saturday night ahead of a t6 finish. After Brendan and KVV's special YouTube episode on Friday, Andy offers up his take on Jim Furyk leading Team USA at the 2027 Ryder Cup and wonders if Nick Saban would've legitimately been just as good of an option. Nelly Korda made her jump into the "temporary water feature" at Memorial Park - or as most people call it, a pool - after winning her second Chevron Championship and third major. Korda went wire-to-wire in Houston, but it remains to be seen if the event was a business success for the LPGA given broadcast constraints and what seemed like limited attendance. To top it all off, the much-anticipated pool jump was cut from the NBC broadcast and moved behind the Peacock paywall at the last minute. Paul Azinger made the most of his time on cable TV with Bob Papa this weekend while calling the Mitsubishi Electric Classic, filling PJ and Brendan with joy due to his one-liners. Retief Goosen held off a charging Stephen Ames and Zach Johnson to win the event. Lastly on the recap schedule, Andy's Event of the Week on the Legends Tour didn't go well for tournament host Ian Woosnam and questions arise about Henrik Stenson's inability to contend on the Euro's version of the Champions Tour. We will return on Wednesday to preview the return of the PGA Tour to the Blue Monster at Doral.

Hour 2 kicks off with the Miami Heat once again heading to the NBA Play-In Tournament for the fourth straight season, sparking frustration over whether the franchise is stuck in mediocrity and needs a major shakeup. The conversation also turns to how difficult it has become to watch sports today, with the rise of multiple streaming services making the NBA, NFL, and other leagues harder to follow, as Joe jokes he somehow ends up with every platform thanks to his daughters. Dave Mack then joins from the Cadillac Championship at Doral to preview the event, highlighting Friday night fireworks with DJ Irie, food vendors, and the full fan experience while also jumping into NFL Draft talk. The hour wraps with Hollywood's Headline's.
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 takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Iran Endgame Clay and Buck open the hour analyzing remarks from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who describes increasingly intense American airstrikes and the destruction of Iranian missile sites, naval assets, and military infrastructure. President Donald Trump’s comments from an event in Doral underscore the scope of the operation, with Trump highlighting that U.S. forces have struck thousands of targets and sunk dozens of Iranian naval vessels. This leads the hosts into a broader conversation about the endgame in Iran—specifically the uncertainty over who might take power if the regime collapses and whether the U.S. or Israel has viable contacts who could help stabilize the country. Questions arise about whether any Iranian political figures could work with the West, even discreetly, and whether the U.S. intends to pursue regime change or simply force strategic concessions. The discussion shifts toward the economic consequences of the conflict, particularly the dramatic price fluctuations in global oil markets. Clay notes that oil surged to $120 per barrel before rapidly falling to around $85, emphasizing how the United States’ role as the world’s top oil and gas producer provides a buffer against global shocks. The hosts contrast this national strength with states like California, which has severely limited oil and gas production despite having abundant resources. They argue that nationwide energy independence—driven largely by fracking—has dramatically reduced the geopolitical leverage of petro‑dictator states like Iran, Russia, and Venezuela. Michael Whatley Must Win Senate candidate Michael Watley of North Carolina joins to lay out why he believes his race will become the most expensive Senate contest in American history, with more than $600 million expected to pour into the state. Watley contrasts his platform with Democrat Roy Cooper’s record on crime, taxes, immigration enforcement, and cultural issues, arguing that Cooper repeatedly vetoed legislation aimed at keeping violent illegal immigrants out of North Carolina and supported policies allowing biological males into women’s sports and locker rooms. He highlights the massive federal recovery effort after Hurricane Helene, crediting Trump‑aligned leadership for billions in rebuilding investments across western North Carolina. Watley emphasizes that suburban, college‑educated independent voters—particularly those concerned about inflation, housing affordability, and public safety—will determine the outcome of the race, which historically has been decided by razor‑thin margins. Watley lays out pro‑growth policies he hopes to implement in the Senate, including extending Trump’s middle‑class tax cuts, eliminating taxes on overtime, tips, and Social Security, and pursuing regulatory and trade reforms designed to strengthen manufacturing, small businesses, and farms. He notes skyrocketing housing costs across the state and previews an upcoming meeting with federal housing officials aimed at increasing supply, lowering prices, expanding first‑time homebuyer access, and reducing interest rate pressure. Clay and Buck underscore how these affordability issues have become decisive for independent voters in states experiencing rapid population growth. Nothing is Impossible Shannon Bream, Chief Legal Correspondent at the Fox News Channel, nerds out with Clay and Buck over several high‑stakes Supreme Court cases expected in the coming months. She details upcoming rulings on redistricting, race‑based gerrymandering, and executive power, noting that the timing of decisions could influence how states draw congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms. The conversation expands to unresolved tariff‑refund disputes created by recent court rulings and the Supreme Court’s stalled investigation into the Dobbs leak, which she says produced no identified culprit and may be difficult to reopen. Clay and Buck also ask about speculation that aging justices like Samuel Alito might retire while Trump still controls Senate confirmations, though Bream says there are no signs of imminent departures. She also talked about her new book out today: “Nothing is Impossible with God: Eleven Heroes. One God. Endless Lessons in Overcoming”. Suspicious Packages Breaking news emerges as Clay and Buck monitor reports of suspicious packages near Gracie Mansion in New York City following a series of politically charged protests. Clay and Buck highlight how rising tensions around radicalism, counter‑protests, and public safety are shaping the national conversation. This leads into a blistering critique of CNN’s framing of an incident involving homemade bombs thrown outside the home of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. The hosts argue that CNN’s softened, narrative‑driven portrayal of the suspects reveals deep cultural bias within the network’s editorial process, reinforcing their long‑held belief that CNN’s institutional culture needs a complete overhaul. The hour pivots to the broader media environment, with Clay and Buck praising Elon Musk and the transformation of Twitter into a platform that no longer suppresses stories unfavorable to the left. This launches a humorous sidebar about Gen Z slang terms like “glazing,” “mogging,” and “looksmaxxing,” as the hosts poke fun at generational language shifts and how social media influences cultural vocabulary. From there, the show transitions back to serious geopolitical analysis as Caroline Levitt delivers a White House briefing outlining President Trump’s strategy to stabilize global energy markets during the Iran conflict. Clay and Buck explain how the administration’s rapid response—including offering naval escorts for tankers, waiving certain sanctions, and providing political risk insurance—has helped reverse the temporary oil price spike that rattled markets the previous day.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump speaks live from Doral, Florida on the latest from the Iran war, Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and the SAVE America Act. Operation Epic Fury has to be done right rather than quickly. There needs to be careful planning to avoid leaving conditions for another repressive, genocidal Islamist regime to emerge. The isolationists on TV and elsewhere who previously opposed the President's military operation—saying it violated Trump's campaign promises and undermined MAGA—now all of a sudden praise it as a spectacular success. They are rewriting history, and sound like the left with forever war slogans despite no massive U.S. ground troops or endless involvement. Also, the ISIS attack in New York carried out by two young immigrants is unfortunately only the beginning of such incidents. Iran has pre-positioned hit squads because of the Biden administration's open borders and Democratic leaders like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. Mayor Mamdani's response to this terrorism was appalling. Later, Chuck DeVore calls in describes Operation Epic Fury as going exceptionally well. Devore attributes the success to major advancements in air power combined with exquisite intelligence sharing with allies like Israel and rapid targeting capabilities.

Today's Headlines: Iran has a new Supreme Leader: Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the late Ayatollah, who is reportedly a bigger hardliner than his father — whose death he can thank the U.S. and/or Israel for, along with his wife's. Trump immediately called him "unacceptable," which might've been useful information before the bombing campaign began. The U.S. death toll from Iranian retaliatory strikes is now at 8, oil just crossed $100 a barrel for the first time in four years, and the White House press secretary went on Fox News and refused to rule out a draft. Meanwhile, the CIA is reportedly arming Kurdish forces to stir up an internal uprising in Iran, while U.S. and Israeli officials are discussing sending special forces in to secure Iran's nuclear stockpile. Meanwhile, the White House blocked intelligence agencies from issuing a terrorism threat warning to local law enforcement about rising domestic risks tied to the war. When Trump was asked about Americans dying on home soil, he said "some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die." Elsewhere in the hemisphere, Trump held a "Shield of the Americas" summit at his Doral golf club — because of course he did — gathering 17 Latin American leaders to announce a military coalition against cartels, with fired DHS Secretary Kristi Noem elevated to special envoy of the whole thing. Trump also started floating regime change in Cuba, because the Iran war apparently wasn't enough. In other chaos: Hungary detained seven Ukrainian bank employees carrying $82 million in cash and two armored vehicles, which Ukraine called "state terrorism." Two teenagers from Pennsylvania were arrested for attempting to set off explosive devices outside New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's home during dueling protests. Senate Republicans blocked a bill that would have forced disclosure of Epstein's financial records, and no one is asking any follow-up questions about that. And Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales — currently under House Ethics investigation — is dropping his reelection bid but refusing to resign his seat.

President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he's replacing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem with a Republican U.S. senator from Oklahoma.Trump revealed his decision in a post on Truth Social, saying Sen. Markwayne Mullin will take over on March 31.“The current Secretary, Kristi Noem, who has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!), will be moving to be Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, our new Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere we are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida. I thank Kristi for her service at ‘Homeland,'” Trump wrote.The president's announcement comes two days after Noem faced a grilling on Capitol Hill from both GOP members and Democrats. During that hearing, Noem defended DHS's immigration enforcement tactics and pushed back against criticism from Democrats who say she wrongly disparaged Renee Good and Alex Pretti after they were killed by federal agents in Minneapolis.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
