## Resource

July 21st, 2026, 10am: Money Power Politics continues into the second hour. Today is primary day in Arizona, one of the nation's fiercest battlegrounds. The stakes are high for Democrats, with key races vital to their chances of controlling the House in November. Plus, a new round of strikes on Iranian targets began overnight ahead of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's hearing with the Senate later today. And, Trump has signed orders to impose a 50 percent tariff on a wide range of exports from Canada. What will this mean for the innumerable products manufactured in Canada that Americans use every day? Joel Payne, Nayyera Haq, Molly Jong-Fast, and Congressman Seth Moulton join the Group Chat today.
