The show kicked off with a discussion about the recent Signal chat controversy involving high-level national security officials. The hosts argued that the situation is being blown out of proportion and emphasized that no classified information was shared. They also touched on the downfall of Disney's Snow White remake and the controversy surrounding Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett's comments about Governor Abbott, who is wheelchair-bound. The hosts found her explanation for calling him "Hot Wheels" unconvincing and discussed the broader implications of her remarks. The conversation then shifted to the role of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the recent comments by Tulsi Gabbard regarding the Signal chat incident. The hosts debated the significance of the mistake and the potential political motivations behind the story's release. They also speculated on the possibility of other Signal chats being compromised and the overall security protocols in place for such communications. Finally, the hosts discussed the public's reaction to the Signal chat story, noting that it seems to be more of a political hit than a genuine national security concern. They argued that the average American is unlikely to be deeply concerned about the incident and that it will likely fade from the news cycle soon. The hour wrapped up with a light-hearted discussion about Hot Wheels toys and a preview of upcoming topics, including an interview with Bill O'Reilly.
