## Resource

Emily and Griffin break down Trump's elections speech with Shelby Talcott from Semafor. We ask Shelby if there is any substance to Trump's claims about 2020, Maduro, China Hacking and more. Then we turn to Tucker praising Democrats for voting No to funding Israel as well as more U.S. actions in the Strait of Hormuz in attempts to control boat traffic. We take a look at Pete Hegseth's new 'High Testosterone' soldiers and finally an insanely embarrassing Biden book tour moment.
