Bill Clinton & James Patterson

Jordan Klepper dives into Trump's Irish exit from Canada's G7 Summit to explore a "better than a ceasefire" between Israel and Iran, and how Trump's threats against Iran's ayatollah started an intra-MAGA beef with Tucker Carlson. Plus, Michael Kosta finds a delicious way to capitalize on the situation in Iran. Was Trump's parade a military celebration or a show of authoritarian power? Jordan Klepper hit the streets of Washington, D.C., to talk to MAGA during Trump's $45 million military parade. Klepper asks folks how they feel about DOGE cuts, the L.A. protests, and whether they showed up to celebrate the military or the president's birthday. "If you don't like who's being elected, and you don't like what they're doing, you got to get out there and fight for it. And one of the things that we try to do in this book is to make people see that." Best-selling co-authors Bill Clinton and James Patterson sit down with Jordan Klepper for a conversation about their new political thriller, "The First Gentleman," their dynamic as creative collaborators, and how, after three books, they've learned that it's better to humanize than demonize, both in fiction and politics. The former president offers his take on President Trump's second-term policies, from the economy to deportations to involvement in the Middle East. Clinton and Patterson also emphasize the importance of participation and voting.
