McConnell or Platner? Who's Closer to Death?

Dan Griffin and Corey Walsh open with show banter, a July 4th story, and jokes about America’s “250th” and its political maturity, then pivot to news that fighting with Iran is “back on,” describing a disputed MOU over safe passage and Iran’s threat to restrict shipping if Israel continues bombing Lebanon, calling attacks on commercial vessels a PR mistake. They discuss rumors Mitch McConnell has been hospitalized since mid-June after an alleged heart attack and argue this underscores the need for age limits in Congress and frustration with procedural politics and boomer leadership. Breaking news follows that Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner ended his bid amid sexual assault allegations; they question “recovered memories,” media corroboration, and timing, arguing Democrats used the scandal to force a withdrawal and replace him under Maine rules. They close with a Mark Levin rant clip and brief Michigan primary talk.
