Trump’s threats toward Iran have escalated from incoherent to terrifying—with evacuation warnings, “we’re at war” rhetoric, and reports he’s greenlit an attack. All while taking policy cues from Fox News segments. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman break down how the right-wing infotainment complex is driving foreign policy in real time and why this is sparking a telling schism in American politics. We dig into the MAGA isolationist response—from Tulsi Gabbard downplaying Iran’s capabilities to Tucker Carlson absolutely dismantling Ted Cruz—and what it reveals about the realignment on the right. There’s more at stake here than just another war: this is about who gets to decide what America is, and who we kill for it.
