Josh opens the show by breaking down reports of growing divisions inside the White House over how to handle Iran. While one faction is calling for stronger action, others continue to push for diplomacy and renewed negotiations. Josh explains why he believes the time has come for decisive leadership, argues that past attempts to negotiate with the Iranian regime have repeatedly failed, and lays out what he sees as the path toward ending the conflict.

Josh also takes a look at some of the most controversial candidates emerging from the Left in congressional and Senate races across the country, examining what their rise says about the direction of the Democratic Party heading into the midterms.

Later, Josh is joined by Oren Cass of American Compass for a wide-ranging discussion on the economy. The two discuss the president's trip to China, the future of U.S.-China trade relations, and whether any meaningful agreements are likely to come from the visit. They also explore strategies for reducing inflation without triggering the economic pain that can accompany deflation.

Plus, Josh reacts to a recent interview featuring Jeff Bezos, in which Bezos argues that Washington's biggest problem is not necessarily government spending, but government inefficiency. Josh weighs in on the debate and what it means for the future of federal policy and economic growth.
