Full Show For Wednesday July 8 2026

We open Kayal and Company with breaking news from President Trump’s trip to Turkey, where his comments at the NATO summit put the Iran ceasefire back under the microscope. Dawn brings the latest on Trump saying talks with Iran are a waste of time, oil prices jumping, and the region shifting again after new U.S. strikes. We also get into a targeted DoorDash murder in Kingsessing, a disturbing Northeast Philadelphia home search tied to threats against the White House, Wildwood ocean rescues, and a rare Pokémon card scam that turns a police safe exchange zone into a $24,200 crime story. The Big Take centers on the Tyler Robinson hearing in the Charlie Kirk assassination case, where Kayal pushes back hard on the conspiracy theories surrounding the case. We walk through the surveillance footage, campus timeline, courtroom testimony, and the claims from Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson that keep getting undercut by evidence. The crew also debates social media grifting, how viral claims warp public judgment, and why the simplest answer in this case appears to be the strongest one. Later, we move into Bernie Sanders calling for Graham Platner to exit the Maine Senate race after a rape allegation, the Democrat civil war between the party establishment and the socialist wing, and the pressure surrounding Susan Collins’ seat. We also dig into the SAVE Act, voter ID, Netanyahu’s CNN interview on Iran and Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene’s appearance on The View, a California HOA fight over American flags, a Tennessee train conductor fired after a patriotic July Fourth message, Fight Club, Today in Music History, and Dawn’s Big Three to close the 9 AM hour.
