How an Influencer Took Down Swalwell, and Will an Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire End the War?

Episode 226 Published 4 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

Former elementary school teacher Arielle Fodor has racked up 1.4 million followers by posting political satire as her influencer alter ego “Mrs. Frazzled.” When Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., announced his campaign for governor last year, she posted an endorsement — and then her DMs blew up. Fodor explains how she started investigating allegations against Swalwell that ultimately led to his political demise. Then, NBC News foreign correspondent Matt Bradley breaks down what we know about the just-announced 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon — and shares what a senior Hezbollah official told him about its willingness to abide by the deal.
