Plus in today's episode: California's bill to let kids legally separate from their parents, LA's non-citizen voting push, a US Senate hopeful's mommy-managed finances, and the obesity drop RFK Jr calls a 50-year first.

America made peace with Iran. The ink wasn't dry before the regime we just shook hands with sentenced a woman to 74 lashes for the crime of singing on YouTube without a hijab. Chuck connects the agreement signed at the Palace of Versailles to what that same government did the very next day, and asks the question almost nobody in the press will touch: who exactly did we just trust for the next 60 days?

Then it's home to the failing blue states. California lawmakers are advancing a bill that would let minors in residential facilities petition to separate from their parents with no evidence of harm required. Los Angeles moves to hand non-citizens a vote in local elections. A man who wants a seat in the US Senate apparently shares a checking account with his mother. And RFK Jr closes with a number on American obesity that hasn't been seen in half a century, with a national-security warning attached. There is a famine of truth in our land. Truth starts now.
