War in Iran Backfires as MAGA Turns on Trump

from Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov · host Vox Media Podcast Network

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov dig into the growing cracks inside Trump’s MAGA coalition as U.S. strikes on Iran spark backlash from the right. JD Vance once sold Trump as the president who “started no wars” — now, with American casualties rising and only a quarter of Americans backing the strikes, that promise is under pressure. From Capitol Hill to conservative media, the movement is split: is this still “America First,” or something else entirely? Scott and Jess break down the White House’s defiant message to Republicans, and what this fight could mean for the midterms — and for Vance’s credibility with the anti-war right. Then, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem faces Congress for the first time since the killing of Alex Pretti in Minnesota. Lawmakers press her on DHS enforcement tactics, detention policies, and whether national security is being compromised amid escalating tensions with Iran. What kind of oversight should Congress demand right now?
