The Tony Kinnett Cast

Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani told 8 million sweltering New Yorkers to set their AC to 78 degrees to save the grid — and the internet responded with exactly the mockery you'd expect. Meanwhile in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison pardoned a man who repeatedly assaulted a 10-year-old girl, wiping his record clean just days before ICE was set to deport him. This is who Democrats are protecting.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:

- Mayor Zohran Mamdani tells New Yorkers to set thermostats to 78 degrees amid a brutal heat wave — DeSantis, Stefanik, Huckabee Sanders, and half the internet roast him as the "warmth of collectivism" meets the reality of socialist energy policy
- Gov. Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison pardon Tou Lue Vang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl — wiping his record just a week before his scheduled ICE deportation
- Global stock market cap hits a record $166 trillion
- The U.S. survives a controversial red card to beat Bosnia 2-0 and advance to the Round of 16 — plus more pro-American fare as the country gears up for America's 250th on July 4th
- New polling shows Americans deeply unsettled by the socialist and Islamist surge in recent primaries — spelling serious trouble for Democrats heading into the general election
- GUEST: Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation joins LIVE for a special Fourth of July message

Secretary of State Marco Rubio just had a Cuban Communist influence operative and his family arrested and put into federal custody — one of several major counterterrorism moves today as the State Department and DOJ close in on sprawling terror finance networks tied to Iran and Cuba. Meanwhile, the socialist wave that's been building in New York swept into Colorado last night: Melat Kiros — a 29-year-old Notre Dame Law grad, barista, DSA member, and Hamas apologist — just knocked out 15-term Congresswoman Diana DeGette. Get the jar.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:

- Secretary Rubio arrests Cuban Communist influence operative Carlos Antonio Lloga Dominguez and his family — the State Department is escalating sanctions and terror designations against Cuba's ICAP network, which spans 150 countries and 2,000 organizations
- DOJ and Treasury are hammering Iran's crypto terror finance networks under Operation Economic Fury — Nobitex, Iran's largest digital asset exchange, and three other exchanges sanctioned for processing billions in IRGC-linked transactions and sanctions evasion
- Democratic socialists sweep Colorado: Melat Kiros (Notre Dame Law, DSA, Bernie-endorsed, called 9/11 and October 7 "inevitable consequences" of U.S. and Israeli policy) defeats 15-term incumbent Diana DeGette; Phil Weiser appears to beat Sen. Michael Bennet in the governor's race
- The U.S. takes the pitch against Bosnia in the World Cup — we'll have the latest
- GUEST: Chip Wyatt of Heritage Action joins LIVE to break down the path forward for the SAVE America Act
- GUEST: David Swegle of HHS joins LIVE to expose how states are manipulating their work requirement numbers to inflate welfare funding

The Supreme Court just wrapped up the most consequential term in years — and today's final decisions gave everyone something to be furious about. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote a 5-1-3 opinion upholding birthright citizenship in Trump v. Barbara, joined by Barrett and the three liberals, while Thomas, Gorsuch, and Alito dissented. The good news: trans sports bans are constitutional and campaign finance restrictions got gutted. Meanwhile, Iran and the U.S. can't even agree on whether they're meeting today in Doha, and fuel shortage riots are breaking out across China, Russia, and other adversary nations as the economic pain from the Hormuz shutdown bites hard.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:

- SUPREME COURT FINAL TERM RECAP: Birthright citizenship upheld 5-1-3 (Trump v. Barbara) — Roberts and Barrett side with the liberals; Thomas and Gorsuch dissent; Kavanaugh concurs but says Congress could still act
- States CAN ban transgender athletes from women's and girls' sports — Kavanaugh writes the 6-3 majority; a big win
- Campaign finance restrictions gutted — Watergate-era caps on party spending struck down; Trump calls it a "BIG WIN for Republicans"
- The State Department ramps up the assault on birth tourism in the wake of today's ruling
- Fuel shortage riots erupt in China, Russia, and other nations as Hormuz-driven energy chaos drains their reserves
- Iran and the U.S. are gearing up to fight again, and showed up in Doha despite promising not to
- Pride festivals in Seattle and Los Angeles see adults exposing themselves to children — and federal officials may be moving in
- Colorado primaries are tonight: Governor (Bennet vs. Weiser on the Dem side), Senate (Hickenlooper vs. Gonzales), and key House races.

A federal grand jury in Manhattan has issued subpoenas as part of a DOJ probe into Neville Roy Singham — the China-based Marxist tech billionaire who funneled $285 million through Goldman Sachs into a sprawling network of far-left organizations including CodePink. His wife and CodePink co-founder Jodie Evans is also a target. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court dropped a massive batch of rulings today with something to make everyone mad, and Iran is playing games in Doha while the ceasefire hangs by a thread.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:

- DOJ opens a grand jury investigation into Marxist billionaire Neville Roy Singham for alleged wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering tied to his $285M network funding far-left groups across the U.S.
- Supreme Court roundup: Trump gains sweeping new power to fire independent agency heads (Trump v. Slaughter, 6-3), the Court protects the Federal Reserve's Lisa Cook for now (Trump v. Cook, 5-4), mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day upheld in a rebuke to the RNC (Watson v. RNC) — and geofencing ruled a Fourth Amendment search (Chatrie v. United States)
- Iran is refusing to confirm talks with the U.S. in Doha even as Trump says the meeting is happening — the MOU ceasefire is barely holding and the Strait of Hormuz remains a flashpoint
- Devon Westhill, Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights at the USDA, joins LIVE on revoking DEI grants

The U.S. is striking Iran again in the Strait of Hormuz — and they waited until after markets closed on a Friday to do it. The MOU is done. Meanwhile on the home front, Senate Majority Leader John Thune is staring down a censure vote from his own state party after South Dakota Republicans unanimously advanced it over his handling of the SAVE America Act. And in New York City, newly elected Mayor Zohran Mamdani just froze rent for two years. Communism is having a moment.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:

- U.S. strikes Iran again in the Strait of Hormuz as the markets close for the weekend — the MOU is finished
- Senate Majority Leader John Thune faces a censure vote from the South Dakota GOP after a unanimous committee vote over the SAVE America Act
- Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the NYC Rent Board go full communist, freezing rent in New York City for two years
- Gavin Newsom releases a flailing pre-presidential campaign video trying to be everything to everyone
- Democrats argue in court that Haiti is too dangerous for its own citizens to return to — right after TPS status was rescinded
