Today, our email is from Roberta from New Orleans, Louisiana. Trump is bragging about detaining an oil tanker from Venezuela. He has recently authorized a blockade on tankers entering and leaving Venezuela's sovereign waters. It seems to me that he is escalating his “War on Fentanyl” against the alleged drug cartels of Venezuela to include other exports and imports. So, I was wondering your take on all this. It’s evident to me that attacking small craft isn’t enough, and he is pushing us toward a real war. Where is Congress in all this? Can he keep this aggressive action up without their approval?

Today we have a report from Michael from El Paso, Texas, writes I would like for your group to discuss this urgent matter that may save the lives of these immigrants in these detention centers. I have just begun listening to your podcasts, and I admire your perspectives and straightforwardness, which many people avoid for the sake of saving face. Your podcast makes me realize I am not alone in holding similar views on the state of our nation. Now, I have a document prepared by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and other activist organizations, which states multiple reasons why the Fort Bliss immigration camp in East Montana should be shut down and thoroughly investigated. The file describes physical, mental, and sexual abuse, as well as neglect of the immigrants ' basic needs. I pray that the situation improves and that the other people in my town become aware that these individuals would not lie about such matters, and that there are at least seven testimonies from those in custody. Perhaps you guys can come up with a topic surrounding ICE and their lack of government supervision and overall ignorance on their part.

So today we hear from David, who lives in Paul’s Valley, Oklahoma, asks, Well, Trump got his peace prize. What an embarrassment for FIFA. But in usual Trump fashion, he was almost gleeful and acted like a child winning his first spelling bee. FIFA is a large, influential international organization, and it seems to be massaging Trump's ego. Why? Who knows, since he is less about peace and more about himself. I also see that the Cambodian peace deal he “worked out” seems to be failing. He claims to have orchestrated a peace deal between Rwanda and Congo, but the fighting there continues. So I don’t see what the GOP is talking about when they tout his diplomatic accomplishments. But now we have the Trump Institute for Peace. Do you think the Next President might change that name back?

Today, we hear from Tonya, who lives in Zephyrhills, Florida, and asks, I see that the GOP has lost another seat in an area that Trump won by double digits. Eric Gislder beat the Republican in the 121st House District in Georgia. I know you were talking about the different Republican congresspeople possibly leaving early. Do you think this trend of special election success for the democrats might continue if there is a mass exodus by Republican members? Might even the MTG district go Democrat?

Today, our question is from Europe Mario, who lives in Rennes, France. I feel fortunate that I have no plans to visit the US. In a recent podcast, your entire panel basically said Don’t come. It was, I thought, honest advice based on the current chaos in the US. But I did see that someone in your government, I’m sorry I can’t remember who, is suggesting that visitors be required to show their social media posts for the 5 years before visiting. If this is true, why do you think this is even being considered, and what might be the consequences?

Today we hear from Ted from Quincy, Illinois, who asks, I don’t know if the panel is aware, but for the first time, the US has been placed on a security risk paper from Denmark. The paper says that the US might use its economic and even military power to take over Greenland. That ranks us right up there with China and Russia. Not the list I’d want to be on. So, should the Danes be concerned? Or is this just more Trump bluster making them nervous?

Today, we hear from Tori from Scranton, Pennsylvania, who asks: "I was reading a report that stated the FED is divided and preparing to consider lowering interest rates." I’m a little confused as to what impact this might have on our economy. So, should they lower the rate? If so, by how much? And can you explain what the effect might be of reducing the rate or keeping it the same? Will this help prices come down?

Today, we answer an email from Emily, who lives in Olympia, Washington, asking, So there is a lot of talk about Democrats outperforming Kamala Harris in recent special elections. The pundits are claiming that this is a bellwether for things to come in the 2026 midterms. First, do you agree with that? Second, is this shift due to Harris being a terrible candidate or a rejection of Trump’s policies? And if there is time, one last question, I see that the VA bar association has decided to punt the football on disbarring Lindsey Halligan. Why do you think they are reluctant to act, and shouldn’t state bar associations hold these incompetent and corrupt Trump lawyers accountable?
