HOT TOPICS | Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth & The Economy...Everything is Worse Than You Think

This morning we’re taking a hard, honest look at the state of the country. The economy is wobbling, unemployment is skyrocketing, families can barely afford groceries, and yet the Trump administration continues to insist we’re living in the “strongest economy ever.” The disconnect couldn’t be more insulting. Meanwhile, the Hegseth Venezuela boat strike scandal is still growing, with new details raising even more serious questions about legality, leadership, and accountability. And to make matters worse, the Supreme Court has now allowed Texas to move forward with its new redistricting map, a decision that could hand Republicans up to five additional seats, reshaping power in Washington for years to come. So the question becomes: What do we do? How do we fight back? And how do we hold onto hope in times this bleak? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
