On today’s episode of The Scott Jennings Show, Scott broadcasts live from New York City, focusing on rising political violence in America, including new details in the Palisades Fire arson case, threats against elected officials, and ongoing fallout from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner attack. He also covers escalating tensions with Iran as Project Freedom continues, with analysis from Eli Lake on whether U.S. restraint risks emboldening adversaries. Scott is joined by Shermichael Singleton to discuss shifting political dynamics and growing Republican gains among Black voters, and by Michael Auslin to explore the enduring meaning of the Declaration of Independence ahead of America’s 250th anniversary. In Hour 2, Nicholas Giordano breaks down new reporting on the SPLC and its alleged ties to FBI assessments, Lila Rose discusses the Supreme Court case involving the abortion pill, and Senator Bernie Moreno joins to talk Iran policy, his Connected Vehicle Security Act, and the GOP’s path forward, before Scott wraps with commentary on the Michigan Senate race and the broader political landscape.
