California's primary votes are still being counted, and there's a lot of speculation about what that could mean for the election. It might take until July 4th before all the ballots are in. Mark breaks down the process for getting into the Obama Presidential Library. The new Iran deal is stirring controversy; many people don't like it, saying it's a big shift from President Obama's JCPOA. Alan Greenspan, the longtime Federal Reserve chair and legendary economist, passed away at 100. A new report claims that Dr. Anthony Fauci withheld certain information about the COVID pandemic, according to Military Officer Tulsi Gabbard. Mark interviews New York Post columnist Michael Goodwin. President Trump and Vice President Vance now have 60 days to try to strike a deal with Iran; if not, there could be some serious consequences for Republicans heading into the midterms. Mark and Michael discuss whether the rising tensions between Israel and the U.S. could hurt the Iran deal and maybe even the economy. They also share their thoughts on why President Obama's presidential center has been such a lightning rod for criticism. And, in New York, there's a push to redesign traffic lanes, which Mark and Michael break down in detail. Turns out, a lot of tourists in the U.S. have never tried ranch dressing! Plus, since many international visitors don't tip, some restaurants are rethinking their pricing strategies. There's talk of upgrading the bike and bus lanes on 6th Avenue in NYC, and the debate continues over whether Central Park's iconic horse carriages should go electric. Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman stops by to update us on his campaign. He argues that Governor Kathy Hochul's spending on unnecessary programs shows New York doesn't have a revenue problem; it's a spending problem. Jimmy Kimmel is about to take some time off, with some big names filling in for him.
