Summary
CannCon and Alpha Warrior break down the most talked about moment from last night's convention, President Trump's proposed five thousand dollar tariff dividend for every adult, with a very specific catch about where you are allowed to spend it. That sparks a genuinely spirited disagreement between the hosts about dividends versus entitlements that runs longer than either of them planned. From there it is a Daily Caller report on Mitch McConnell's wife holding appointments from CCP linked organizations while serving in the Cabinet, followed by geopolitics on a Trump and Putin call about ending the Ukraine war, new construction at Iran's Pickaxe Mountain site, and a David Petraeus clip that both Marines find deeply distasteful. They close with the Missouri congressional map fight heading to the Supreme Court. Expect real friction and plenty of ribbing.
