## Resource

Rita dives into reports of massive impending US military strikes against Iran and jokes about the Ayatollah's dangerous new need for a body double. The show takes a hard look at the chaotic migrant surge overwhelming the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, warning that socialist open-border policies and government amnesty offers are completely to blame for the crisis. Rita and her callers also blast controversial New York official Zohran Mamdani for his invasive new "second-home tax" and his highly criticized plan to attend the 9/11 anniversary memorials despite his radical associations.
