This week on Pardon the Politics, Jeezy and Manny dive headfirst into a fiery international saga featuring stealth bombers, suspect Pentagon footage, and one very dramatic NATO summit. Was Iran’s nuclear program really “obliterated,” or did we get a TikTok-worthy CGI demo from the Pentagon? As the U.S. scrambles to justify Operation Midnight Hammer, leaked intelligence hints at a less-than-successful strike, and a rush toward peace that smells more like PR.
Meanwhile, Trump drops an F-bomb on the global stage (literally), gets called “Daddy” at NATO, and somehow convinces 32 countries to cough up 5% of their GDP for defense. Oh, and Canada thought now was a good time to tax AI. Trump responded with maple syrup tariffs, because of course he did.
With hilarious political analogies, side-eye at press briefings, and serious questions about truth in national security, this episode has it all. Tap in for laughs, analysis, and the week’s juiciest headlines.
