Tom Bilyeu and Producer Drew cut straight to the heart of today’s most complex and controversial headlines. The episode opens with a whirlwind tour of international conflict, as Israel retaliates against Houthi forces in Yemen, and Donald Trump takes to social media with bold statements targeting Iran. Tom and Drew break down the escalating Middle East tensions, unraveling the interconnected alliances of Iran, Israel, China, Russia, and North Korea, and what it all means for the world’s future.

Shifting gears to the domestic front, Tom and Drew dissect Donald Trump’s viral comments about a potential third term and his ambiguous relationship with constitutional limits. The conversation then moves into the controversial mechanics of executive power, Supreme Court rulings, and America’s ongoing struggle with immigration reform and due process rights.
