What really happened with Trump’s secret Ukraine-Russia peace plan that left Secretary of State Marco Rubio completely in the dark until the last minute?

On this wide-ranging episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara sits down with Aaron Parnas to unpack one of the wildest political weeks yet: the bombshell Wall Street Journal report that Marco Rubio only learned about the back-channel Ukraine deal last Monday, Trump’s failed attempt to rebrand Obamacare that got laughed out of his own caucus, Marjorie Taylor Greene’s sudden retirement and why Kevin McCarthy says she’s the “canary in the coal mine” for a growing GOP exodus, Democratic senators forming a secret “Fight Club” to openly rebel against Schumer and Gillibrand, Elise Stefanik getting sidelined yet again, and why Zohran Mamdani is no longer the Republican boogeyman now that Trump is praising him.

Which part of this absolute circus shocked you the most?
