Join us today at 1:00 PM EDT for a gripping episode diving into the most pressing issues of July 31, 2025.
We start with the heartbreaking funeral of NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, killed in a Manhattan mass shooting, and unpack the controversy surrounding mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s backpedaling on defunding the police, as his past rhetoric clashes with his current stance.
Next, we tackle the Massachusetts shelter crisis, where the state spends $3,870 per family weekly, yet Governor Healey redirects funds without solving the issue, burdening taxpayers.
We then explore explosive claims from a declassified Durham report annex, alleging George Soros’ Open Society Foundations fueled the Trump-Russia collusion narrative, raising questions about FBI complicity.
Shifting to international comparisons, we analyze Britain’s alleged 150 daily stabbings under strict gun control, contrasting with US gun violence to argue violence stems from human and mental health issues, not just weapons. We also dissect Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán’s unverified claim doubting Joe Biden’s presidency, highlighting his pro-Trump alignment and authoritarian tactics.
Back home, we cover Kamala Harris’ decision to skip California’s 2026 gubernatorial race, keeping her 2028 presidential hopes alive amid mixed political prospects. We then delve into the Bridgeport, Connecticut, absentee ballot scandal, where nine face charges for election fraud, undermining trust in democracy.
Finally, we celebrate the US economy’s 3% Q2 GDP growth, defying tariff fears, while critiquing media narratives downplaying the rebound. Tune in for a dynamic discussion on these critical stories shaping our world today!
