Not a good day for the bad guys...

Democrats are pro-choice...as long as you choose what they want to force you to do.

I just can't bring myself to.

Dean Karayans, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, sits in for Derek to discuss current political news, media narratives, and recent commentary from prominent public figures. Topics include The Alaska Senate Race & DOJ Lawsuit: The Department of Justice's involvement in the Alaska Senate race, addressing the controversy surrounding a challenger named Dan J. Sullivan running alongside incumbent Senator Dan S. Sullivan. He defends the federal oversight against criticism from media outlets and interviews like those with Attorney General Todd Blanche. Celebrity Neutrality & Public Pressure: Dean discusses his recent column in The New York Sun regarding an emerging cultural trend where celebrities and entertainers remaining neutral on politics face intense public pressure and accusations of complicity. He highlights examples from Matthew McConaughey, Mick Jagger, and "Weird Al" Yankovic. Hillary Clinton on Government Corruption: The episode critiques comments made by Hillary Clinton on her podcast regarding political corruption and the two-party system, contrasting her criticisms with her own political history and net worth growth. Foreign Policy & Iran: The show reviews conflicting perspectives on the ongoing situation with Iran, contrasting commentary from former President Barack Obama with President Donald Trump's statements regarding naval blockades and oil shipping out of the Strait of Hormuz. Other News Briefings: An ICE enforcement action in Charlotte, North Carolina involving a U.S. citizen and his brother, as well as an exchange between Brett Baer and Abdul El-Sayed trying to cast criticism of the Muslim Brotherhood as Islamophobic despite it being banned as a terrorist group by a dozen Islamic nations including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and a whole bunch of -stans.
