Rich Zeoli breaks down a massive day in news, starting with the explosive backlash over Marco Rubio’s latest remarks. Did Israel push the U.S. into action? Rich unpacks the controversy, the online firestorm, and then the big reveal…President Trump says he forced Israel’s hand not the other way around! 

Later, we tackle the media’s favorite new narrative: "The collapse of MAGA." Rich explains why the "base-vs.-base" feud is being wildly oversold and looks at the real political risks—including the specter of "boots on the ground" and long-term mission creep.
Plus, a series of domestic flashpoints: a major Supreme Court win for parental rights, the chaotic Epstein hearings featuring a Hillary Clinton walkout, and Kristi Noem flipping the script on Democrats. Finally, Jack Carr joins the show to discuss his new novel The Fourth Option, the history of Iranian proxies, and what a clear objective looks like in today's Middle East.
