Admiral James Stavridis, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, joins the media narrative by performing "population math" to equate Israeli casualties to 35,000 Americans. The hosts criticize these analogies, arguing that the tactical nature of the events—raiding a dance party versus hijacking planes—makes the 9/11 comparison inaccurate. They suggest the Las Vegas shooting is a more apt tactical parallel.

A report from WBUR details the invasive nature of the vice presidential vetting process, likened by some to a colonoscopy. Retired Admiral James Stavridis describes being grilled about teenage romances and providing two feet of documentation, including dental and medical records, during his 2016 vetting by the Clinton campaign. The discussion questions how consultants manage such a treasure trove of opposition research.
