## Resource

This week we welcome Travis back to the studio(!!) and talk through the nightmare that is unfolding in Minneapolis. How dumb do they think we are? What should Dems do? Will abolishing ICE do anything? We also dive into the US’s options for intervention in Iran. What are they exactly? What does it mean for Trump to promise help and then watch as thousands are killed. Considering our pitiful track record, should we intervene at all? And just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, we finish things up with an exceptionally infuriating JD Vance corner. Make yourselves comfortable, folks, it’s going to be a rough (but bearable) ride.
