Episode Details

Peace talks collapse of key red lines, a major campaign is put on ice, and redistricting battles take center stage.

In today’s Special Monday Rundown, we break down the fast-moving developments overseas as Iran negotiations fall apart with no deal, prompting the U.S. to ramp up its military posture in the region. With plans to blockade the Strait of Hormuz and conduct mine-sweeping operations, tensions are rising quickly — and global markets are already reacting as tankers race toward American shores.

Back home, California politics are rocked as Congressman Eric Swalwell announces he is suspending his campaign for governor following serious allegations from a former staffer. Swalwell denies the claims and says he will fight them personally, but the political fallout is immediate.

In Virginia, Governor Glenn Youngkin and Attorney General Jason Miyares are hitting the trail as redistricting efforts enter the home stretch. Control of the map — and potentially future elections — hangs in the balance, with Democrats facing added pressure amid concerns about Abigail Spanberger’s standing.

And finally, Vice President Kamala Harris adds fuel to 2028 speculation with a candid, unscripted moment when asked about a future presidential run.
