Congress voted Thursday to end the war in Iran. Wednesday they funded it. Pete Hegseth bombed civilians and called it a win. This is how they get away with it.

In this episode:

• War Powers Act theater — Congress funds the wars it pretends to oppose

• Marco Rubio's circular logic: we attacked Iran because Iran was going to attack us after we attacked them

• The ICC, US hypocrisy, and the Justice for Victims of War Crimes Act

• Mayor Zohran Mamdani calls for Netanyahu's arrest — and why Michael Rappaport should read the law first

Key figures covered: Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, Zohran Mamdani, Benjamin Netanyahu, Michael Rappaport, Donald Trump, Jon Ossoff, Mike Waltz
