Coalition Building
Ben Shapiro joins us today to discuss the results of the Israeli election, where the anti-Bibi coalition underperformed and likely denied Eisenkot the prime ministership. Can Netanyahu form a new type of coalition or rely on Smotrich, Ben Gvir, and the ultra orthodox parties, and what might another round of elections look like if he can't? Plus, the election results as viewed through the prism of American politics, and John recommends the movie Confession. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Let it Bibi
The Israeli election is in full swing with the highest turnout in 50 years. What will this mean for the Arab parties, Netanyahu's chances of survival, and will an Eisenkot victory expose American leftists who claim to only be anti-Bibi? Plus, the midterms loom large with the Michigan race seemingly tied and reports that early voting turnout in the state is down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Plus, the comments by Obama and Elissa Slotkin, Abdul El-Sayed's confrontation with Bret Baier, Ilhan Omar's new ad, fake polling firms, the Young Turks recycle their old antisemitic ad, and John recommends The Imaginary Invalid on Broadway.
