Secretary Rubio just slapped fresh sanctions on Cuba's military supply chain, warning the regime is "in ruins" — is the communist government finally on its last legs? Meanwhile Saudi Arabia is bracing for renewed conflict as the reality sets in that the Gulf states can't stay on the sidelines of the Iran war forever. And in Washington, Anthony Fauci just got hit with a bipartisan-adjacent gut punch: the Senate Homeland Security Committee voted him in contempt of Congress, and Chairman Rand Paul is skipping the floor vote entirely to hand-deliver the referral straight to the DOJ today. TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - Secretary of State Rubio and the Trump administration hit Cuba with a fresh round of sanctions targeting the regime's military supply chain, as the communist government's economy and grid continue collapsing under the weight of six decades of Marxist mismanagement - Saudi Arabia braces for a possible new round of conflict with Iran, as the Gulf states increasingly find themselves with no choice but direct confrontation with Tehran - The Senate Homeland Security Committee votes 8-5 along party lines to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress after he pled the Fifth 111 times — Chairman Rand Paul bypasses a full Senate floor vote and hand-delivers the referral directly to the Attorney General and the U.S. Attorney for D.C. today - The great online right burrito debate rages on — Michael Knowles joins us LIVE to break it all down - More as news develops The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape. 🎙 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tony-kinnett-cast/id1714879044 🎙 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7AFk8xjiOOBEynVg3JiN6g 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/mKTkahs58X 📩 Contact Tony: https://www.tonykinnett.com/contact 🌐 The Daily Signal: https://www.dailysignal.com Produced by Daniel Elmore, Allison Lemons, Josiah Lott, Lou Scataglia, and Jennifer Schmidt.
