Trump's Intelligence Hitman — Pulte Hired to Fire and Dig Into 2020 Election Files, Maine's Mud War Heats Up Before Tuesday's Primary & Iran

Trump told the Wall Street Journal exactly why he hired Bill Pulte to run American intelligence — fire a lot of people and dig into 2020 election files. No ambiguity. No reading between the lines. We take the President at his word today and examine what that means for the agencies keeping America safe. Maine's primary is Tuesday and the opposition research on Graham Platner is hitting hard. Between Platner and Paxton of Texas we ask whether the Senate is becoming a club where a checkered past is basically a membership requirement. And the Iran expert community is now saying clearly and collectively — there is no deal to be made with this regime. So what exactly is the plan? All of it today.

California Still Can't Count Votes on Election Night. Four Republicans Break With Trump on Iran War Powers. John Bolton Just Pleaded Guilty.

California used to have election results by the eleven o'clock news just like every other state. Now it takes days and possibly months and they think they are doing a great job. We explain what broke and why it matters for democratic trust. Four House Republicans voted for the War Powers Act to end the Iran war — a rare and notable break from Trump that now heads to the Senate for a showdown. And John Bolton walked into court today and pleaded guilty to one of the eighteen classified document counts against him. Is the former National Security Advisor actually going to prison? Big stories today and we are not sugarcoating any of them.

Pelley Bit the CBS Hand That Fed Him and Got Fired. A Republican Is Leading California's Governor Race — Yes Really. And Nobody Wants Bill P

Scott Pelley spent months fighting his CBS bosses on his own broadcast and learned the oldest lesson in professional life the hardest possible way — do not bite the hand that feeds you. CBS fired him. Meanwhile a Republican is in first place in the California governor's race and yes we checked the calendar and yes this is real. The years of homelessness, crime, wildfires, and sky high gas prices under Democratic rule have apparently finally moved the needle in the nation's biggest blue state. And Bill Pulte — the President's pick to replace Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence — is drawing skepticism from virtually every direction. Republicans are quiet. Democrats are loud. The intelligence community is concerned. Is this really the person to lead seventeen spy agencies in the most dangerous intelligence environment in a generation?

Iran Wants Israel to Stop Defending Itself Before Any Talks — You Cannot Make This Up. Slush Fund Paused, Six Primaries Today & Republicans

Iran's condition for coming back to the negotiating table is that Israel stops defending itself from Hezbollah. Not that Hezbollah stops attacking. Israel stops defending. Seriously. We break down what that demand actually tells us about Iran's real intentions. The $1.776 billion weaponization compensation fund has been paused after Congress from both parties pushed back hard. Six states vote today and the California story is the one to watch — Republicans are running real candidates for Governor and for Mayor of Los Angeles and the political environment created by years of Democratic failure on homelessness, crime, and wildfires has made both races genuinely competitive. California may not be turning red but it is turning something. All of it today.

Iran Says No Talks, Trump Says Rapid Progress — Someone Is Lying. Houthis Threaten to Block the Red Sea, Six Primaries Tomorrow & Even The V

Iran says negotiations are over. Trump says they are moving at a rapid pace. Both cannot be true and today we call it out directly. Meanwhile Iran is coordinating with the Houthis to block the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait and choke off the Red Sea — a move that combined with Hormuz pressure could trigger a global shipping and energy crisis. Six primaries tomorrow and next week Maine votes on Graham Platner. And The View ladies — of all people — used every bad word in the book asking why American voters cannot find better candidates. When The View and conservative America agree on something it is worth paying attention to. All of it today.
