Chad Holmes and Ian Welsh dive into the political storm brewing over Trump's apparent indifference to a tragic political assassination. Holmes criticizes Trump for golfing with Lindsey Graham instead of showing leadership at the funeral of Minnesota political figures. He denounces the GOP's 'Big Beautiful Bill' for its proposed cuts to healthcare, which critics like Senators Josh Hawley and Tom Tillis warn could strip millions of Americans of coverage. Holmes lambasts ICE's obscene funding hike amid tax cuts for the wealthy, urging listeners to stay vigilant and politically active as the nation teeters on the edge of a policy disaster.
