In this episode, Tristan begins with a deep dive into the expanding “Signalgate” scandal, revealing that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had a second Signal chat group sharing sensitive military information about Yemen airstrikes with inappropriate recipients, including his wife, brother, and personal lawyer. The scandal has triggered an investigation by the DOD Inspector General and led to a staff purge at the Pentagon.
Tristan also examines the ongoing immigration crisis, discussing the Supreme Court’s 7-2 decision to freeze deportations to El Salvador and highlighting shocking cases of due process violations, including a US citizen detained by ICE despite presenting his birth certificate. Additionally, he warns about the Trump administration’s plans to gut FDA food safety inspections, explaining the historical importance of these regulations in preventing foodborne illness outbreaks and protecting public health.
