Megyn begins the show by breaking down the historic and newsy Pentagon press conference with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan “Razin” Caine, the mic drop moments of Hegseth sparring with the press, the terrible coverage of the successful strikes against Iran’s nuclear facilities, and more.
Then, the hosts of Ruthless – Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook – join to discuss how the left and the media tried and failed to downplay President Donald Trump’s successful Iran mission, the truth about the effectiveness of the strikes, some of the worst TDS partisan media reporting this week, Jake Tapper suddenly lecturing about the job of a journalist, CNN’s Natasha Bertrand’s terrible reporting on Iran, her history of awful fake spin for the intel community, the preview of Megyn’s parody of Michelle Obama’s podcast, how consistently negative the former first lady sounds on her show, Barack Obama celebrating himself, Trump’s “Daddy” moment at the NATO Summit, the respect he has earned from prominent world leaders, ridiculous media coverage of the trip, the rise of deranged white guilt on the left that led to Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York City Democratic mayoral primary, leftist youth disillusioned by capitalism, whether incumbent Mayor Eric Adams has a chance to stop Mamdani, and more.
