In this episode, we take a closer look at Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong, including her controversial “Feast of the Feminine” dinner and the radical policies she has embraced. We also examine Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic Socialist who recently won Michigan’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, and his decision to remove more than 100 videos from his YouTube channel. His deleted content included inherently Anti-American commentary on the Second Amendment, border security, July 4th fireworks, football, and more.  In New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani is escalating his fight with Amazon while backing legislation that critics warn could drive up costs for consumers, threaten delivery jobs, and hurt small-business owners. Plus, we break down the Biden administration’s Medicare Part D spending scheme, examine UN Women’s attack on so-called “manosphere” language, and expose the controversy surrounding the “Republicans for Talarico” group.
