Send us Fan MailFrom armored vehicles on the streets of Washington, D.C., to threats over one of the world’s most important water treaties, this Deep Dive takes you inside two days of jaw-dropping global headlines. We break down Trump’s National Guard deployment, the tense lead-up to his Alaska summit with Putin, and escalating U.S.–India–Pakistan friction over trade, alliances, and resources. On the home front, India battles monsoon chaos, environmental decay, and bizarre voter roll errors, while humanitarian crises rage in Gaza, Sudan, and Haiti. Add to that Europe’s wildfires, China’s strange ‘pretend to work’ trend, and shocking acts of violence — and you’ve got a world on edge. We connect the dots so you understand not just what happened, but why it matters.Support the show
