Iranian Would-Be Assassins and Shoe Would-Be Bombers

Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:36:08
Publish Date: 2025-07-08 22:41:00
Description:

An interview with Wall Street Journal reporter Josh Dawsey, co-author of 2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America, covers Biden’s decline, Trump’s courtroom rage, and the political strategy behind legal delays. Also , how potent are Iranian-directed assassination crews? And, as the TSA begins phasing out its decades-old shoe removal policy, a look back on how we were very very concerned with terrorism then, and weirdly blasé about terrorism now.   And finally a  quiz sifts through the TSA’s baffling baggage rules, from tamales and chapstick to harry potter wands (non-operational).
