Episode length: 1h 26m

We kick things off with the viral Oliver Widger sailing story before diving into serious headlines. Scott Bessent exposes Biden’s shady dealings with China, and Trump signs a bold new executive order to slash drug prices. But the real story? Pharma isn’t the only target—Trump demands insurance reform and takes aim at Big Insurance, Big Pharma, and even the EU.

RFK Jr. and Dr. Bhattacharya offer rare bipartisan support, while Ro Khanna backs Trump’s move. Then it gets tense: ABC asks Trump about the Qatar jet, triggering reactions from Rand Paul, Ben Shapiro, Batya Ungar, and Karoline Leavitt.

We break down the controversy over U.S. acceptance of South African refugees—why now? Why them? Scott Jennings and Shermichael Singleton aren’t holding back.

Plus:
-Edan Alexander returns home from Qatar, with Trump leading the charge
-Jen Psaki flops in her new TV gig
-New COTR x Scott Jennings merch
-New Texas Senate polling
-Dylan Mulvaney faces backlash from Megyn Kelly
-And a college protester still can’t define “fascism”
Bonus bits: Tim Tebow tackles child abuse, Mikhaila Peterson has a baby, Stephen A. Smith comes for Bernie, and the internet can’t handle men covering Eric Clapton.
