The gang breaks down President Trump’s escalating rhetoric over Greenland, including newly revealed text messages with Norway’s prime minister and renewed claims that U.S. control of Greenland is necessary for global security. They debate how serious this push really is and what it signals about American power politics. Then they turn to the UK, where Prime Minister Keir Starmer is opening the door to a possible ban on social media for children under 16, reversing earlier opposition and raising questions about whether similar restrictions could come to the United States.

This episode was recorded prior to the framework deal being announced.

The gang discusses the killing of Renée Good, a U.S. citizen fatally shot by an ICE agent during protests against a federal immigration operation in Minneapolis. With conflicting accounts from federal authorities, witnesses, and local officials, they dig into questions of use of force, accountability, and how immigration enforcement is escalating inside U.S. cities. Then, they turn to California’s proposed billionaire wealth tax, which has prompted Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin to move assets and cut ties with the state. Is this a long overdue redistribution effort, or a policy that will drive massive capital flight?

The gang breaks down the U.S. operation that captured Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro in a surprise overnight raid approved by President Trump, an unprecedented move that killed dozens of Cuban guards and triggered international outrage. With critics calling it illegal regime change and supporters celebrating Maduro’s removal, they ask what this means for U.S. foreign policy going forward. Then they turn to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s sudden decision to drop out of his reelection race amid a long-running fraud scandal involving state funded childcare programs. Why step aside now in a deep blue state, and what does the timing say about accountability and political pressure?

The gang discusses the ongoing manhunt following the deadly shooting at Brown University, where two students were killed and the suspect remains at large days later. With limited footage and mounting public anxiety, they ask how long it takes before a failure to make an arrest becomes alarming. Then, they turn to Vanity Fair’s revealing profile of Trump chief of staff Susie Wiles, unpacking her candid admissions about internal chaos, hardline policies, and her role as an enforcer rather than a moderating force inside the administration.

The gang breaks down the arrest of Brian J. Cole Jr., the man charged with planting pipe bombs outside the RNC and DNC headquarters the night before January 6. After years of stalled leads, investigators linked him through surveillance, cell data and component purchases, raising new questions about motive and timing. Then the gang turns to a new study showing people are more likely to exploit AI when it is labeled female. They dig into what this means for how companies design AI systems and how human gender bias gets projected onto machines.

The gang digs into the explosive report that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth allegedly ordered troops to "kill everyone" aboard a suspected narco-trafficking boat in the Caribbean. After a second missile strike killed survivors clinging to the wreckage, lawmakers are calling the incident a possible war crime and demanding answers. Then they turn to Ireland’s new alcohol warning labels, which link drinking to cancer, liver disease, and risks during pregnancy. With adoption delayed until 2028 and binge drinking still high among young adults, the crew debates whether these labels will change anything.
