Years ago, a journalist I trusted gave me up to the FBI, and I went to prison for it. Now that same reporter, Matthew Cole, is reporting that Russian and Dutch intelligence got inside Jared Kushner's personal phone. I'll walk you through the allegations, why this is a live problem with Kushner negotiating with Putin right now, and what I'd tell the sources who talked to him. (Spoiler: get a lawyer.)
Plus, I'm handing out our first-ever TrainVek Award to Vivek Ramaswamy. His attack ad starring Amy Acton's estranged mother was already a disaster, and then we learned his star surrogate was charged in a case where kittens died in a hot car. Did nobody on his team Google this woman?
We'll also cover Israel's Election Day, including Netanyahu's reported push for strikes on Iran, Ben Gvir's latest outrage, and the three coalition scenarios to watch. Then it's Lula's narrow win in Brazil, and a CIA contractor accused of leaking classified reports to help his girlfriend's career.
