President Donald Trump orders new strikes against Iranian IRGC targets as tensions explode again around the Strait of Hormuz — and Chris X breaks down what it means for U.S. forces, global oil markets and American gas prices.

Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security launches a sweeping voter-fraud investigation across nine states ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. Chris examines what federal investigators are looking for, why election integrity is back at the center of the national debate, and how 2024 election monitoring differed from 2020.

Then the Texas Senate race heats up again as resurfaced video shows James Talarico describing capitalism as an “oppressive system” that should be dismantled. Chris also reacts to Talarico campaigning for higher taxes, Mark Cuban’s endorsement, Ken Paxton’s growing advertising push and John Cornyn’s refusal to campaign for the Republican nominee.

 Plus: Tropical Storm Edward makes landfall near the Texas-Louisiana border, the U.S.-Venezuela oil deal could reshape energy prices, and callers weigh in on election security, Texas politics and the battle for control of the U.S. Senate.
