Josh and Barry cover the appointment of Kash Patel and his threats to prosecute politicians that have been involved in charges vs. Trump, centering on revenge as well as potentially dismantling the FBI. Josh talks about the pros and cons of this possibility whether you are on the left or right. This could enhance local control but could also see less coordination as a nation. National security is of utmost importance and pros and cons will have to be evaluated without making ourselves more vulnerable with this being decentralized.

Trump’s main theme is putting in place those that are loyal to Trump. Questions have been asked if this is at risk of actual leadership experience and merit.

Also discussed is the idea of Tariffs that Trump is going to put in place. These tariffs can lead to inflation, and ultimately the costs are passed on to the consumer. Rather than lower prices at supermarket, it may affect the lower and middle class having to pay higher prices.

Josh and Barry discuss all sides, but bring to light what has been happening over the last week.
