First, the Trump administration says progress is being made in negotiations with Iran, but Tehran is already pushing back on key claims made by Vice President JD Vance. After tensions flared again in the Strait of Hormuz, questions persist about whether the Trump administration secured a lasting agreement, or simply handed Iran new leverage. Jessica and Sharon also discuss Zohran Mamdani's growing influence in New York politics, and the rise of democratic socialist candidates in major cities across America. In one Congressional race, Mayor Mamdani detached himself from the allies of Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and from longtime incumbents, to endorse a controversial candidate whose past views have come under fire. Will this widen the divide within the Democratic Party? Plus: explosive new reporting has exposed former DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s affiliation with a strange religious group — which many former members have called a cult. Sharon and Jessica talk about the insidious influence of religious groups on our elected officials — such as the overt Christian nationalism of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Finally, they discuss what America's 250th birthday celebration should really represent, and why Sharon believes that in order to come back from Trump, we all must decide that the era of "not knowing" is over.
