Pete Hegseth's disastrous tenure as Defense Secretary takes center stage as Dave, Ashley, and Kurt dissect the growing cracks in his support—even among Republicans. From the Venezuela bombing debacle to throwing an Admiral under the bus, the hosts explore whether Trump's loyalty to his embattled cabinet pick has finally met its match. Plus, the crew tackles Trump's pardon spree that would make even past presidents blush: from a Honduran drug lord to white-collar criminals who can apparently buy their freedom. Why does the "party of law and order" keep handing out get-out-of-jail-free cards to the wealthy while demonizing everyone else? The conversation gets heated as they debate inflammatory rhetoric on both sides, the future of Trump's fractured party, and whether Democrats can actually capitalize on Republican chaos this time—or will they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet again?
