    DC elects their own Zohran; Trump navigates Iran deal fallout; Soros DA in hot water

    06/18/2026 | 15 mins.
    On today's 10 Minute Drill, we're covering the biggest stories of the day — in just over 10 minutes!

    🌍 TRUMP AT THE G7 & THE IRAN LOVE BOMB Trump is having the time of his life at the G7 — Modi calls him "the most beautiful looking man, like an angel," and El-Sisi says "we fell in love." Meanwhile the New York Post says it best: Trump devastated Iran, and now he's hitting them with a love bomb. JD Vance is so cool that even the IRGC says they like us. The deal isn't final — Trump made clear bombing can resume if needed — but an MOU is on the table and the text drops soon.

    🚩 DEMOCRAT SOCIALISTS ON THE RISE Meet DC Mayor candidate Janeese Lewis George — the latest face of the rising socialist movement inside the Democrat Party. This isn't fringe anymore.

    🌡️ HOW DEMS SHIFT THE OVERTON WINDOW From COVID to Wuhan labs to climate change — Democrats have a playbook: plant their flag, get the media to call it "settled science," and label everyone else as political. Now blue-state attorneys general are pressuring the Federal Judicial Center to restore climate alarmism content — while every single signatory has active climate litigation in their states. And the National Academies of Science, receiving $200 million in taxpayer dollars, is pushing radical agendas in K-12 classrooms.

    ⚖️ LARRY KRASNER GETS BLASTED — BY DEMOCRATS The Pennsylvania Supreme Court — 5-2 Democrat — just torched Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner. His office withheld evidence, submitted false stipulations, and made over 100 problematic concessions in serious felony cases since 2018. The court is now requiring the state Attorney General to review any future concessions from his office. The man who threatened ICE and called enforcement "out of the Nazi playbook" can't even run an honest DA's office.

    🏳️‍🌈 CALIFORNIA WANTS YOU TO PROVE YOU'RE LGBT qualified California's utility contracting system now requires businesses to prove LGBT ownership to qualify for preferred contracts. How do you prove it? Documentation. Affidavits. Therapist letters. Birth certificates. We have some alternative suggestions involving ABBA lyrics and Mamma Mia opening weekends. Meanwhile California's actual energy grid is a brownout-riddled disaster — but at least it's inclusive.

    🌊 COMING TO AMERICA: NORWEGIAN ROWERS Norwegian World Cup fans rowed to the stadium. Then discovered In-N-Out Burger. The look on that man's face after his first bite says everything.

    Domestic Terror attack at White House foiled; MLB steps in it with mandatory pride hat fight

    06/17/2026 | 15 mins.
    The FBI just disrupted a drone and sniper plot targeting a UFC event near the White House. Five in custody, 23 identified in the network. The alleged plan involved explosive drones, a pre-staged sniper team, and a second wave storming the White House gate. Their targets were politicians with AIPAC ties. This one is alarming.

    MLB warned three San Francisco Giants pitchers for writing Bible verses on their Pride Night caps — calling it an alteration to the "official uniform." The same league that reinvited the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to a Dodgers Pride Night. The progress pride flag is compulsory. Scripture is not.

    A Haitian fraudster used the 340B federal drug program to steal nearly $60 million from taxpayers — fake patients, fake HIV/AIDS prescriptions, enormous Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements. Then bought a mansion. Congress wants answers.

    Elon Musk becomes the world's first trillionaire and Democrats respond with one voice: tax him. Bernie, Warren, Khanna, Schiff, Newsom — all calling for wealth taxes and windfall profits taxes on oil. Jimmy Carter tried the windfall profits tax. We break down exactly how that went.

    World Cup tourists are still falling in love with America. Japanese fans, Texas-sized everything, and visitors cleaning up their own stadium trash. Respect.

    And Bernie Sanders is getting very rich selling books about how bad capitalism is.

    Iran deal and the biggest test for JD Vance; what World Cup tourists tell us about geopolitics

    06/16/2026 | 14 mins.
    Trump touches down in France and Geneva ahead of the G7 as the White House pushes forward on an Iran nuclear deal. JD Vance makes clear: Iran will not get a nuclear weapon — and the Strait of Hormuz is no longer a pretext, it's a technical negotiation. What does $300 billion have to do with it?

    Ro Khanna wants to ban U.S. gasoline exports to lower prices at the pump. Economists, the Daily Wire, and even the New York Times agree — this would make things worse. We break down why.

    The DOJ settled with Cleveland Clinic, but the 340B drug program scandal runs deeper. Tax dollars have been used to fund dangerous transgender surgeries on minors, and Republicans are pushing for real accountability. Joe Rogan is even talking about it.

    World Cup tourists are discovering America — and they love it. German fans at Buc-ee's and Waffle House, Scottish fans singing Country Roads, and a stop at Fenway. America is ready for its moment.

    And finally — Jim Acosta at the Kennedy Center. You can't make it up.

    Monday Rundown: New Iran deal raises questions; Trump at the G7; Fight Night at the White House

    06/15/2026 | 10 mins.
    It's the Monday Rundown on 10 Minute Drill! We're breaking down the biggest stories from the weekend — including Trump's UFC entrance, the details and serious questions surrounding the new Iran deal, G7 action, and major Senate personnel moves.

    Trump made a massive entrance at the UFC fight while dark-money-funded counter-programming hosted by Jane Fonda and Bette Midler tried to steal the spotlight. Then — Jay Clayton floated as the new DNI, Todd Blanche potentially moving to AG, and FISA back on the table.

    At the G7, Trump will meet with Macron at the Palace of Versailles, he’ll sit down with Zelenskyy, and he’ll hold bilateral meetings with leaders from Qatar, Egypt, and India. Big issues on the table: Ukraine, trade, protectionist digital service taxes, and Iran.

    Speaking of Iran — Trump announced a deal is complete and signing is set for Friday. We break down what we know, what we don't, and the four critical questions everyone should be asking — including how this differs from the JCPOA, how verification will work, and what it means for the Iranian people.

    Plus — Jim Acosta live-streams himself watching Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Center, the 340B/Blackwell story on Republican accountability, and a Flag Day moment from Talarico.

    Graham Platner’s accidental Epstein connection; CNN calls out a Democrat for erasing past

    06/11/2026 | 9 mins.
    Today on the 10 Minute Drill: The U.S. hit Iran hard — and Trump says we're hitting them again. We now control the Strait of Hormuz. Then, the greatest own-goal in Democrat history: after blocking DHS funding for 100 days, Democrats ended up getting ICE and CBP funded at 11 times the level they would have received if there had been no shutdown at all. Kamala Harris celebrated. Republicans simply went around them. Congratulations to the resistance. Plus: Graham Platner drops his first general election ad and opens with a Jeffrey Epstein line — we'll explain why that may be the worst possible move for a candidate with his baggage. Then: the Trump administration is warning 500+ hospitals to publish their prices or face fines — RFK Jr. and the MAHA movement call it a major milestone for patient rights and healthcare transparency. And finally: Abdul El-Sayed is deleting posts. We noticed.
