In an uncertain world in an uncertain time, you can count on the “DePtogram show with political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou,” to deprogram you from the BS so you understand the latest developments in global and domestic crises. First comes the intensifying Iran-Israel War, where the Israelis are bombing striking uranium enrichment and missile sites in Iran, while Iran reports over 220 civilian deaths and retaliates with 400 missiles launched toward Israel. Iran is believed to only have 2,000 ICBMs. When will they run out, and then what? Israel and the U.S. are said to desire “regime change”; is that desirable or possible and, if so, how do we avoid another failed state like Libya or Syria? President Trump’s rhetoric has aligned with Israel—now he says “we”—and he’s threatening Iran’s Supreme Leader with assassination and hinting at U.S. deployment of a 30,000 bomb, with reports of U.S. aircraft carriers and warplanes being sent to the Middle East. DNI Tulsi Gabbard is warring against the neocons in Trump’s cabinet, warning that the world is on the precipice of World War III. We’ll explore whether Trump will join Israel’s attacks, the political pros and cons, and the heated War Powers debate (wasn’t that resolved during Vietnam?), as Senators Tim Kaine and Bernie Sanders push resolutions to require congressional approval for any U.S. military action against Iran. Next, Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill Act” faces a rocky path in the Senate, with Majority Leader John Thune signaling no quick vote to greenlight Trump’s agenda. The bill’s potential collapse could reshape legislative priorities, sparking debates over partisan gridlock and policy impacts. We’ll analyze the stakes and political fallout.
