Savage interviews Newsmax founder Chris Ruddy about President Donald Trump's legacy, the midterms, and the political impact of the Iran war. They discuss how higher gas prices and the rising cost of living may pose a threat to Republicans in the midterm elections. They discuss the Iran War, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's leadership, and the potential consequences of the conflict for both America and Israel. They then address the rising antisemitism online and increasing anti-Jewish hate crimes. Ruddy breaks down recent FCC rulings that could encourage broadcast consolidation, reduce competition, and threaten independent outlets such as Newsmax.
