Summary
The national security meeting was scheduled. The attack plans were ready. Then Trump called it off — again. Is this masterful negotiating leverage or a president who praises his military but keeps finding reasons not to use it? At some point Iran stops believing the threat is real and that is a very dangerous place to be. Then Luigi Mangione was back in a New York courtroom today where a state judge ruled some evidence is out — but the gun and the manifesto are in. The trial just got a whole lot more interesting. Both stories today, no sugarcoating. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support .
