The host claims that these lies were used as a pretext for war and to justify devastating sanctions on Russia's energy sector, which were signed by Donald Trump despite his knowledge of the hoax. This is why, according to the host, a historic and high-stakes meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin is taking place in Alaska, where the two leaders—whom the host calls the "biggest victims of the deep state"—can speak freely without fear of surveillance or leaks. The host details the economic consequences of the sanctions, arguing they crippled Russia's economy while providing cheap energy to China, a move they link to the previous administration's ties to China. The host suggests that the summit is a trade and financial negotiation aimed at ending these sanctions and creating a new economic partnership. The host acknowledges that Putin has gone too far in the conflict but believes the President is pressuring him to de-escalate and hold his fire against future provocations.

Marc welcomes Missouri State Sen. Nick Schroer to dig into the Texas redistricting fight—where four new Hispanic-majority districts are leaning Republican—and the GOP opportunity Missouri missed in 2022 to adopt a 7–1 congressional map. Schroer says Gov. Parson “had no stomach” for it, and questions whether Gov. Kehoe will act, though he predicts a September special session could pair redistricting with initiative petition reform. They slam Missouri Democrats for following Texas Democrats to Illinois during political standoffs, call out the hypocrisy of ignoring gerrymanders in blue states, and argue Republicans are now the “party of fairness” by working across the aisle when policies make sense.

They argue outlets like ABC are using the case as a political scare tactic to rally voters, tying it to Trump despite the events predating his presidency. Marc reiterates his belief in traditional marriage but doubts the Court will even take the case, let alone reverse Obergefell. They note Trump's mixed record on the issue, calling him “wishy-washy” on social issues but highly effective for conservative causes overall. Both slam the narrative that Project 2025 or Trump himself is behind this, labeling it a “nothing burger” meant to stoke protests and division before the election.
