He starts the shows discussing the Pam Bondi/Kash Patel debacle regarding the Epstein client list. After that, Dave moves on to the train wreck press conference between Trump, Vance, and Zelenskyy. He closes the show with a review of the German election results and Mexico sending the U.S. cartel members. It was crazy week in the political realm that's for sure.

The 2025 German Federal election results are out: governing SPD is third, CDU/CSU is tops, the far right AfD came in a strong second.  What is the new picture of vote distribution across Germany? What does it mean for coalition and future governance?  What does it mean for its foreign policy?  Ukraine's president Zelensky went to the Oval Office expecting to discuss and then sign the US-Ukraine mineral deal, instead he got a 'shakedown' by US President Trump and VP Vance all caught on live TV.  He was asked to leave the White House not even able to enjoy a meal.  What happened?  What are the implications and fall out of this very undiplomatic live TV show straight from the White House?

Over the past year, right-wing parties across the West have been sweeping elections. Donald Trump in the United States, Argentina's Javier Milei, Italy's Giorgia Meloni, El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, and now Germany. On Sunday, 83 percent of Germans went to the polls—the highest turnout since the Cold War. The Christian Democrats, the country's center-right party led by Friedrich Merz, won. But that's not the big story. The big story is that the right-wing populist party, the AfD, came in second place with nearly 21 percent, the strongest showing since WWII. There is a single reason why. It's not the economy. It's not the war with Russia. It's not climate change. It's immigration. And I'm not talking about jobs or wage deflation. I'm talking about the fact that over the past decade, Germany has seen a net migration of 5 million people, with more than 1 million of the new arrivals coming from Syria and Afghanistan. And the rifts have been palpable. And here, I'm choosing two examples from just last week: An Afghan migrant suspect rammed a car through a crowd of people. Thirty-nine people, including several children, were injured. Just the day before the election, a Syrian migrant became the lead suspect for a stabbing outside of the Holocaust memorial. This all fundamentally tests the limits of assimilation and multiculturalism. The dynamic here is the same that has characterized many Western nations. The center-left and the left have ignored the problem. And the right has named it—and filled the vacuum. As Michael Sandel has put it: “Fundamentalists rush in where liberals fear to tread.” If there's a line that captures the politics of our era, it is that. Last week, the very question of whether migrants can adopt pluralism and Western ideals was also put to Australians, after two Sydney nurses went viral when caught on camera saying that they would kill Israeli patients that came into their hospital. One nurse was an Afghan refugee. Here to unpack it all is Free Press columnist Batya Ungar-Sargon, Democratic fundraising powerhouse Brianna Wu, and the founder of Quillette, Claire Lehmann.

Three years after ending all official communications with Moscow, the US government is suddenly back in Russia's orbit. The two nuclear powers were sitting down in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday finding a path to ending the Ukraine war and more besides. The talks were no longer about how to deal with the aggressor in the conflict, but how to normalise relations and make Russia a potential partner for future energy deals. So what of Ukraine?

Thousands of displaced Gazans begin to return to their homes in the north of the Gaza Strip as the fragile ceasefire continues to hold. U.S. President Trump has proposed rehousing Palestinians from the Gaza Strip in neighbouring Arab nations to ‘clean out' the demolished territory. Trump has also spoken to Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, once again pushing for U.S. control of Greenland. With less than a month before the German elections, the CDU chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz has proposed a new hardline immigration bill while Tesla CEO Elon Musk addressed an AfD rally, slamming EU over-reach in the country.
