The Druze religion is an offshoot of Shia Islam with its own unique identity and beliefs. In addition to Syria, there are sizeable communities of Druze in Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the occupied Golan Heights.

Benjamin Netanyahu ended his major US trip without achieving Donald Trump's main objective for arranging it, which was ending the war in Gaza. And as the Israeli PM boarded his flight back home, the New York Times published a damning and detailed investigation into the extraordinary extent to which the war has been prolonged for his political benefit, including reports that Smotrich derailed a proposal to end the conflict and return all Israeli hostages as far back as April 2024. And just yesterday at least 10 people, including six children, were killed by an Israeli airstrike as they queued for water, with the IDF claiming it made a “technical error.” Joining Piers Morgan to discuss all this are investigative journalists and producers of ‘The Bibi Files' Alex Gibney and Raviv Drunker, as well as founder and editor-in-chief of Zeteo News, Mehdi Hasan, and attorney Alan Dershowitz.

The full version of today's Friday Focus is available to all members. Rudyard and Janice begin today's special Friday Focus episode with the Trump initiated ceasefire that allows both Israel and Iran to claim some measure of victory. But does Trump have the power to make the truce hold? Bibi is learning that American help comes with a price, and the Israeli PM is no longer in the driver's seat. Pulling back to look at the bigger picture, Rudyard and Janice explain how America's involvement in this war is a game changer that has reinforced American power in the Middle East and beyond. Has this past week's events - including the notable absence of China and Russia in this conflict - challenged the idea that we are moving into a multipolar world? Have we underestimated American power in the 21st century? And finally, how will a weakened Iranian regime respond domestically to the penetration of its military and collapse of its nuclear program?

With Trump's 104% tariffs on Chinese goods now in effect, China retaliates with 84% tariffs of its own. Jon breaks down the global fallout, from Kevin O'Leary's call for 400% tariffs to Scott Bessent's insight on China's economic vulnerability, and explains how Trump is using U.S. leverage to force other nations to pressure China economically. The episode also explores the strange behavior in U.S. bond markets, rising interest rates despite recession fears, and whether foreign governments are dumping treasuries in retaliation. Jon questions whether this is a coordinated economic war, and what Trump's endgame might be. He also digs into the shocking data on illegal immigrants receiving Social Security numbers, Medicaid, and even casting votes in U.S. elections. Meanwhile, Tim Pool drops a bombshell about his off-the-record meeting with Netanyahu, revealing the Israeli PM's quiet push to influence American podcasters. Jon roasts Kristi Noem for staging a raid for social media clout, calls out the collapse of CISA's election influence apparatus, and reviews Trump's newest deregulation blitz, targeting energy, coal, and state overreach. A federal judge rules the AP's exclusion from White House events violated the First Amendment, and the IRS continues its leadership exodus amid scandals over illegal data sharing with DHS. All this while Trump's executive orders stack up and his agenda is only beginning to take shape. With economic brinkmanship, constitutional conflict, and narrative warfare all in motion, Jon Herold makes one thing clear: we're deep in the storm, and just getting started.
