Scott and Kyle Anzalone run through some of the big stories of the day. They start with the war in Ukraine where they discuss how the rhetoric by officials of both sides is evolving. They next discuss the derailment of a train carrying hazardous material in East Palestine Ohio and explore the surprising lack of interest in this story by the legacy media. Finally, they talk about the widespread panic over the Chinese balloon earlier this month and the subsequent shootdowns of several smaller balloons.
