The Big Story of hour two is the news that Trump plans to close 30 embassies across the globe (!). We also talk about his plan to strip regulations of shower heads, put in place by the Biden administration, amid complaints that they don't provide enough water pressure.

Finally, someone has the guts to stand up.
