Today, Andrew examines the question as to whether we should bomb Iran in retaliation for Iran's bombing of Saudi oil production facilities. On the one hand, there is Senator Lindsey Graham who wants Iran to "pay a price." On the other hand, there is Senator Rand Paul, who never wants to fight anyone.
Andrew says it is an easy choice: the Iranians are bad guys who want to destroy us. The Saudis are bad guys who want to work with us. Trump thinks out loud as a microphone is shoved into his face. He goes back and forth thinking about what to do. As Andrew says, you never know what to do with Iran. Hillary's vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine blames Trump's sanctions on Iran as the cause of Ian's actions. Iran wants to draw us in. Trump is doing the right thing to avoid doing that, says Andrew.
Why has it taken years for the gay community to hold Ed Buck accountable? Or the politicians like Adam Schiff and Gavin Newsome?
And what about the abortion doctor in South Bend? Mayor Pete hopes it "doesn't get caught up in politics!"
Andrew's guest is Chris Rufo who writes for City Journal. Chris speaks about the addiction crisis (heroin, fentanyl, and meth), combined with progressive policies that have turned into regimes of permissiveness. The "New Left Urbanists" think that for every problem there is a physical infrastructure solution. Chris believes we have got to get conservatorship laws in place at the state and local levels for seriously mentally ill persons like schizophrenics and people with bipolar disorders who may have drug addiction problems on top of that. There is also a magnet effect of permissive policies, decriminalization policies, no-strings-attached benefit policies. Chris wants emergency shelter facilities to be built, and to disallow camping on the streets.
