The Trump administration’s first successful use of the Alien Terrorist Removal Court marks a major legal and national security milestone. At the same time, Russia is escalating its rhetoric toward Europe, with Vladimir Putin warning that the deployment of European troops to Ukraine would amount to war with Russia. Ben Ferguson examines the Justice Department’s unprecedented use of a specialized federal tribunal created in 1996 but never previously utilized. The case involved a lawful permanent resident tied to a family connected to an alleged ISIS-inspired Election Day 2024 attack plot, culminating in her removal to Afghanistan after proceedings before the court. He also breaks down growing tensions between Russia, the United Kingdom, and Europe as Moscow issues new threats over military support for Ukraine, withdraws its ambassador from London, and raises warnings about the consequences of European involvement in the conflict. The episode concludes with commentary on the 25th anniversary of September 11 and the controversy surrounding New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after footage from the Ground Zero memorial drew criticism on social media.
