Summary
First, they discuss reports that Iran’s secret service formed a unit to target Mossad agents, but the effort failed spectacularly as a Mossad agent ended up leading the operation and populating the group with other Mossad operatives. However, they're also paying close attention as Israel braces for an Iranian missile attack in retaliation for Israel's very successful strikes vs. Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen.
Next, they turn their attention to the International Longshoremen's Association strike, which has shut down U.S. ports along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Jim and Greg criticize the union’s demands and President Biden’s lack of leadership in handling the crisis, which could have significant economic repercussions.
Finally, they preview tonight's vice presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz. Jim predicts a strong showing from Vance and questions whether this debate will further highlight Kamala Harris's questionable choice of running mate.
