Matt Continetti is back to discuss Graham Platner suspending his campaign with an angry 11-minute video diatribe, and whether his cratering poll numbers played a part in democrats' willingness to cut him loose. Plus, Iran's overreach leads to a resumption of hostilities in the region, Rahm Emmanuel's hallucinatory speech in Israel and the upcoming Israeli elections, and Matt recommends Richard Brookhiser's The Hero Returns: Lafayette and the Legacy of Revolution.
