It’s News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Luke Goldstein, writing fellow at The American Prospect, to discuss his reporting on the special election being held today in New York’s 3rd Congressional District. First, Sam and Emma run through updates into the Senate’s military aid deal, the House GOP’s Mayorkas Impeachment 2.0, flight attendant labor action, Joe Biden’s limp warnings to Israel, inflation, and Kari Lake’s Senate candidacy, before diving into the response to the Senate’s Foreign Aid bill for Ukraine and Israel. Luke Goldstein then joins, diving right into his assessments of NY-3’s special election candidates, walking through Democrat Tom Suozzi’s relationship to Israel-aligned PACs, as well as his relationship to the NY Democratic establishment, and the GOP’s Mazi Pilip’s role as an ex-IDF member with a shady financial past, before focusing in the primary fighting grounds of support for Israel and general conservatism. Stepping back, Goldstein walks through Suozzi’s connections to Jay Jacobs, Chair of the NYS Democratic Committee and head of the NY Dems’ right-wing shift that lost the Democrats the House in 2022, before looking at both Suozzi and Pilip’s desire to separate themselves from their national party leadership, and wrapping up with an assessment of their chances. Sam and Emma also dive into the King of Jordan’s recent appearance alongside Biden, Biden’s insistence on looking weak to everyone, whether it be over immigration or Israel, and conclude the free half by looking at the continuing action in Israel to block aid to Gaza.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Jon Stewart catching flack from the libs over stating Biden’s age, watch Tucker get repeatedly cucked by Putin, and chat with Lefty Paul Ryan about talking to your lib friends. Femme Shapiro bravely uses her Daily Wire platform to uplift child labor, plus, your calls and IMs!
