Marco vs. the House; CNN’s shock polling on Democrats identity crisis; Bessent Beastmode

from 10 Minute Drill · host Matt Whitlock

Iran fired missiles and drones toward U.S. and partner forces near Kuwait and Bahrain. CENTCOM reports no U.S. personnel were harmed and forces remain on high alert. The administration is calling it "aggressive Iranian behavior" — even as ceasefire talks continue. We break down what's actually happening on the ground and what "shooting in a more moderate manner" means when missiles are still flying. Rubio went beast mode on Capitol Hill again. When Democratic members tried to run out the clock with the "reclaiming my time" procedural move to avoid getting answers on the record, Rubio called it out directly: "This is a weird rule where you ask a question and I can't answer." Rep. Kamlager-Dove, Sara Jacobs, Ted Lieu, and Rep. Keating all tried it. We have the supercut — and Rubio handles every single one of them. California election continued breakdown: the LA mayor's race result and what it means for Karen Bass's political future. And a proper sendoff for Katie Porter — who lost her bid for Senate and is now departing Congress. We have the sizzle reel: yelling at a reporter, snapping at a staffer, and yes, the Batman costume. Goodbye, and goodbye forever. New polling out on the Democratic Party's direction: Democrats' net approval of their own Congressional leadership has collapsed from +22 in October 2025 to -9 today. 47% of Democrats want their party to move to the center. Only 28% want to move further left. We discuss what this means for 2026, 2028, and whether the party's leadership is even listening. And Treasury Secretary Bessent — you genuinely cannot make this up. We play the clip. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Intro 0:38 - Iran’s Agression 1:58 - CA Election Fallout 4:10 - Rubio Beast Mode 7:43 - Dems Approval Numbers 10:14 - Reviews! 11:05 - Scott Bessent Goes Off
