Mary Katharine Ham, Fox News Contributor, Outkick columnist, and co-author of End of Discussion (@mkhammer), broke down Israel's recent announcement that they will "occupy" Gaza, and Guy and MK speculated that the term "occupy" might be intentionally inflammatory and is a strategic move to set Israel up for a concession in future negotiations. MKH also called out Zohran Mamdani and the broader left for refusing to address antisemitism, even in clear cases like the under-covered St. Louis attack where cars were vandalized and burned. Mary Katharine also discussed the hidden radicalism of Abigail Spanberger, who brands herself as a moderate but dodged questions on transgender policies. Finally, the pair pushed back on The New York Times' absurd claim that the right invented the Sydney Sweeney jeans ad controversy, despite the left fueling the outrage on outlets like the TODAY show.

Jason Rantz, host of The Jason Rantz Show on Seattle Red 770AM and author of What's Killing America, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss his station's brand-new rebrand to "Seattle Red" and why it reflects a pushback against the Pacific Northwest's clear left-leaning media bias. Rantz broke down how radical voices like New York's Zohran Mamdani aren't outliers but emblematic of a national trend among Democrats, including in his own city of Seattle. Guy and Jason also torched the latest woke initiative to force self-driving cars to account for "intersectional equity" - listen to the full interview below! Learn more about your ad choices.

Moore also weighed in on a clip of Sen. Elizabeth Warren's push for higher taxes on billionaires, calling it economically destructive and tone-deaf to the reasons wealthy Americans are fleeing.
