It's Monday, March 23rd.
I'm Jane Koston, and this is What A Day, the show that has a one-second response to this two-second statement
from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy on ABC's This Week on Sunday.
But again, I think we have to offer the president grace.
No.
On today's show, President Donald Trump threatens to escalate the war with Iran,
but the White House says he's only escalating in order to de-escalate.
And with little to no plan in place, immigration and customs enforcement officers are being sent to airports
to get those long lines under control.
Our thoughts are with any travelers who have to interact with them.
But let's start with the war in Iran and the fight over how to talk about it here at home.
You probably don't spend a lot of time following MAGA podcasts or infighting on the internet, and that's for the best.
Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly accusing current Fox News host Mark Levin of having a,
quote, micro-penis, and Levin getting President Trump to post in his defense,
while ridiculous, is not really critical to your day-to-day life.
But what they're fighting about is.
The Maga right is at war over the role that Israel, the country and,
more importantly for our episode today, the concept, has over American foreign policy and America more generally.
Because it's true that the United States and Israel are at war with Iran,
a war that is extremely unpopular with Americans.
