A spectacular Sunday in Southern California, and we have a great live show for you this weekend. We'll start with the sad news about the terrible shooting at a Chinese New Year party near L.A. -- and the suspect is no white supremacist.
Then we'll turn to the news that the DOJ searched Joe Biden's house on Friday and found more classified material -- and that there may be even more out there! This, after the White House assured us that the searching was done!
We've got a debt ceiling fight, and the White House doesn't want to negotiate -- after it pushed through nearly $2 trillion in spending last month, suddenly, the debt ceiling is a crisis. Joe Manchin has other ideas. Will this time be different?
We've got ongoing flood recovery in California, left-wing riots in Atlanta, and reparations in devastated San Francisco. So much to talk about today... looking forward to sharing ideas with you and with our crew of special guests.
Special guests:
Emma-Jo Morris - Breitbart News political editor
Richie Greenberg - San Francisco activist and commentator
Nir Ziso - founder of the Global Architect Institute, on life as a "simulation"

This week’s portion tells the grand story of the prophet who tried to curse people of Israel and instead ended up blessing them.
I am reminded that these portions continue to be relevant anew, as this particular reading lent the title for Israel’s recent 12 Day War against Iran, “Operation Rising Lion.”
This week's portion includes the commandment of the red heifer -- one of the classic "irrational" commandments whose fulfillment is an expression of faith. It also includes the regrettable episode in which Moses strikes the rock.
I referred to this story in a wedding speech last night. Why was Moses punished for striking the rock in Numbers, when he struck the rock without incident in Exodus -- both for the purpose of providing water to the people?
The answer is that in the interim, the Jewish people had received the Torah, which is like the marriage contract between the people of Israel and God. In a marriage, you do not resolve things by breaking boundaries, but through love.
The additional reading, from Judges Chapter 11, is the story of Jephthah (Yiftach), a man whom the leaders spurn, but to whom they must turn to save the nation. The parallels to our present political circumstances are striking.
Shabbat Shalom and Happy Fourth of July!
