Who is really calling the shots in the US military operations in Iran?

Marco Rubio and Mike Johnson are very open to admitting that Israel is the one who is dragging the US into war. Meanwhile Hegseth says his Department of War is different because it’s not woke. Francesca breaks down the latest on Iran plus the news about Kristi Noem's luxury Big Beautiful (Booty Call) Jet.

Then, we'll talk with labor historian, author, and professor Eric Blanc (53:55) about what a real general strike would look like, the lessons about organizing from Minneapolis, and why blanket boycotts might be bullshit.
