All right, good morning and welcome to Breaking Points. Emily, how you doing? Doing great. Glad to be here. Yeah, big show today. We're going to have three different guests coming through. We have a huge show. We're going to start the show talking about the Iranian attacks yesterday. Well, U.S. attacks on an Iranian ship, Iranian retaliation kind of across the region. But it seems to have calmed back down, but it's kind of set a new status quo, I think, which we'll talk about. We'll talk about the latest back and forth between Israel and Lebanon and Hezbollah. We're gonna be joined by Josh Paul, who has a new look at the way that the U.S. is helping the Israelis use their antiquities laws to effectively annex the West Bank.
Huge story, huge story. And then we're gonna do as much as we can on election results, California, because it is a failed state. It takes 10 weeks to count its votes. But we do know enough that we can, I think, confidently forecast some significant results. I like that we agree on California's failure as a state. We talked yesterday, Sagar and I, with Dave Dayen. I know Democrats want to break it up so they can get more senators. Yeah. I think they should just break it up because it's a failed experiment and just start fresh. Start over. Like new rules, all those props that you passed, those are out the window. Direct democracy, man. It's got some problems. Do new props. Yeah. Let's see what happens. Or don't do any props at all.
Also, we have interesting.
Props not working.
Interesting. I agree with that. Interesting election results outside of California, too. Some really interesting stuff in Iowa. Interesting stuff, Ryan, in New Jersey. where, that's right, we interviewed him on last Friday's show, but he won last night. So we're gonna break down all of those election results as well. Yeah, Bill Pulte is, like Marco Rubio, adding a job. He is the head of the FHFA, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, where, as everybody knows, he sifted through loan documents to try to find Democrats who didn't fill their paperwork out right and then prosecuted them.
