Why Newsom Flipped: The New York DSA Primary Effect

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 News

In January, Newsom was quietly opposed to the billionaire tax. Then three DSA candidates swept New York primaries, and Soros money started flowing. Newsom needed both support and money from within the party — and right now the DSA is the arm of momentum, just as MAGA was for Republicans in 2016. He moved immediately after those primaries.

Mamdani Is a Once-in-a-Generation Threat to the Republican Party

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 News

Zohran Mamdani is not just a protest candidate — PBD puts him in the same political-talent tier as Trump, Obama, and Clinton. The Republican Party's failure to address affordability for voters under 35 is an open door for DSA socialism. Youth with nothing to lose are the most susceptible. Republicans have roughly 24 months to close that gap before it becomes irreversible.

Newsom's National Billionaire Tax Targets the Middle Class

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 Business

Gavin Newsom's proposed national billionaire tax doesn't just target the ultra-wealthy — it kicks in at $155,000 for individuals and $255,000 for households, the top 10% income threshold. If you live in LA or Manhattan at those numbers, you're broke after taxes. Newsom caved to DSA pressure immediately after the New York primaries swept in three socialist candidates.

Soros's $103M Midterm War Chest: Who's Getting the Money

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 News

George Soros and his son Alex have poured $103 million into the 2026 midterms — on pace to shatter the previous record of $128M. The money is flowing into populist wildcards like Ro Khanna and John Ossoff, candidates positioned to exploit affordability anxiety and growing distrust of Israel. This is Soros treating the Democratic Party as a Manchurian candidate factory.

News
Iran's Drone Attack and the US Counterstrike

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 News

Iran launched a drone strike on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz; the US retaliated by bombing the launch site after 4 PM Friday when markets were closed. Iran's play is to control Hormuz toll lanes — they want ships on the northern route so they can charge passage. Tom argues the US and UK cleared southern mines to offer an alternate lane, but Iran won't allow it.

History
Israel Officially Recognizes the Armenian Genocide

Newsom’s Billionaire Tax, Iran War Escalates & Israel Ackno… · Jun 29, 2026 History

Israel's cabinet unanimously approved recognition of the Armenian Genocide following Foreign Minister Gideon Saar's proposal. Notably, Netanyahu first publicly acknowledged the genocide when directly asked by Patrick Bet-David on this podcast. The resolution will now go before the Knesset — a significant moral and diplomatic reversal given Israel's historically delicate relationship with Turkey.
