In this weekly roundup, Dan begins with the escalating tensions between the U.S., Iran, and Israel, examining recent airstrikes and the Trump administration’s controversial military decisions.

Dan breaks down the fractured response within the MAGA coalition, uncovering the religious and ideological fault lines behind the debate.

The episode then turns to the Supreme Court’s latest rulings, including:

Gender-affirming care for minors
Deportation policy limits
The reach of nationwide injunctions
Parental rights around LGBTQ+ inclusive education

Dan highlights the Christian nationalist undertones shaping public discourse and judicial outcomes. He ends with a rare note of optimism, pointing to a surprising cross-ideological ruling upholding the Affordable Care Act as a sign that compromise is still possible.
