## Resource

Did you ever think Greg Bovino would run for the presidency of the United States? Nor did I, but Will Sommer is reporting on not only how it is more possible than you think, AND how Bovino is cavorting overseas, building alliances with neo-Nazis who endorse ethnic cleansing. Will joins Katie Phang for a deep dive into his latest reporting on Kash Patel deploying the FBI against MAGA rivals and whether Katie’s theory about Tucker Carlson’s political dreams just might be real.
