## Resource

Jon Herold covers a busy Tuesday with Zelensky and Netanyahu both visiting the White House at the same time, plus fresh Biden ghostwriter tapes catching him warning his own material might be classified. He digs into newly surfaced Fauci diary entries showing a private death rate estimate far lower than what he told Congress under oath ahead of his Wednesday testimony, and runs an informal poll asking whether Fauci will ever see prison time. Other topics include Trump's admission that his new tariffs functionally mirror the ones the Supreme Court struck down, a Trump aide's prediction market betting scandal, a Kansas town divided over an underground nuclear reactor, and a Supreme Court fight over new mail in voting restrictions. Sponsor reads, market updates, and a lively chat session round out a newsy Tuesday show.
