HOUR 1:
Can Trump's Ballroom Actually Be Built? + Pags UNLOADS on James Talarico:
Pags asks whether President Trump's controversial ballroom project can actually move forward-and digs into the legal and political fight surrounding it. Then, what's going on with Candace Owens and Andrew Wilson, and why was Owens reportedly asking for $300,000 to debate? Pags breaks down that drama before getting into Nancy Mace's latest viral moment that's setting the internet on fire. Then Joe turns his attention to James Talarico-and he does NOT hold back. Pags challenges Talarico's claims about the SAVE America Act, accuses him of misleading voters about what the legislation actually does, and asks whether Democrats genuinely believe some of the arguments they're making. The phones light up as listeners weigh in, while Pags explains why he believes Talarico is an entirely different political animal-and one Republicans shouldn't underestimate.
HOUR 2:
Trump Turns on South Korea? A Wild Hormuz Proposal + Victoria Coates Breaks Down Iran:
Pags reacts to President Trump's late-night Truth Social post questioning America's support for South Korea-and this time, Pags has a real problem with what the president is saying. South Korea is an important U.S. ally, so what exactly is Trump trying to accomplish? Pags brings you Trump's own explanation before another jaw-dropping moment: the president floats the idea of making the Strait of Hormuz U.S. territory. Could that even happen? Then Trump gets into a fiery back-and-forth with a CNN reporter and weighs in on the growing controversy surrounding Flock surveillance cameras. Finally, former Deputy National Security Adviser Victoria Coates joins the program to cut through the noise on the biggest foreign-policy questions of the moment. Why is Trump suddenly talking this way about South Korea? Is America actually defeating Iran-economically, militarily, or both? And after weeks of conflicting claims, is the Strait of Hormuz OPEN or CLOSED? Coates gives Pags a definitive answer and reveals where the Iran conflict goes from here.
HOUR 3:
Iran Puts a BOUNTY on U.S. Troops + What Is Happening to the Conservative Movement?
Pags wants an answer to a question that isn't going away: Where is Mitch McConnell, and what's the real update on his condition? Then Pags breaks down another Supreme Court setback for President Trump in the $5 million E. Jean Carroll case before absolutely unloading on reports that Iran is offering $30,000 bounties for killing American troops. From there, things get bizarre: Google is reportedly spending $10 million on Spirit Airlines' old data to train its AI-yes, really-and Nancy Mace is showing off new tattoos while launching a YouTube show after her political career took a dramatic turn. Finally, Kay Hill joins Pags for a wide-ranging look at the state of the conservative movement. Why is comedian Shane Gillis suddenly part of the political conversation? What's really happening inside the so-called deep state? And are Trump's numbers with young Americans flashing a warning sign for Republicans? Pags and Kay connect the dots in a conversation that goes places you won't expect.
