What a dramatic week it was... and the coming week could be even crazier -- and why not? So many things are in motion, and we're along for the ride, at home and abroad, for better or for worse.
We'll start by observing that June 24, 2023 was the first anniversary of Dobbs, the decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. It energized Democrats to hold back the "red wave" of 2022. Is abortion a losing issue for Republicans in 2024?
Next, we'll deal with the extraordinary news about Hunter Biden pleading guilty to two tax misdemeanors, plus accepting a diversion for a felony gun violation, with the foreign corruption allegations largely untouched and unexplored.
It already looked like a cover-up -- and then the IRS whistleblower testimony was released suggesting that AG Merrick Garland and the DOJ were involved in keeping a lid on the prosecution. Say what?
Then there was this weekend's rebellion in Russia. where mercenary leader Yegveny Prigozhin threatened to topple Putin's regime. Would he have ended the war, or accelerated it? And what lies ahead?
We'll discuss...
Special guests:
- Carrie Severino - Judicial Crisis Network, on Dobbs anniversary
- Emma-Jo Morris - Breitbart News political editor, on Hunter deal
- Will Scharf - Missouri AG candidate, on Trump indictment
- Frances Martel - Breitbart News foreign editor, on Russia rebels

This week's portion is the last of the month of Av -- also known as Menachem (Comforter) Av -- which begins in mourning and ends in celebration and anticipation of the New Year and the process of repentance and renewal.
In a similar vein, the portion features Moses offering the Israelites a choice between a blessing and a curse. They are masters of their own fates: if they obey God's commandments, they receive the blessings -- and vice versa.
The key commandment is to reject idol worship. There is said to be something magnetic about the practice of worshiping idols in the new land, such that it would be constant moral battle, both individually and collectively, in the land.
Nowadays, according to Jewish tradition, humanity has lost the urge for idol worship (and the antidote, which is divine prophecy) -- but there are several near substitutes, such as lust or excessive appetites for worldly pleasures.
We are wired for compulsive behaviors, bad habits, and even addictions. These ...
