International Affairs analyst and media law consultant Laith Marouf discusses the Daesh*-claimed bombings in Iran during a ceremony commemorating the assassination of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani, how the United States may engage in the Red Sea with the Ansar Allah rebel movement in Yemen, and whether the United States can handle a greater regional war.

Gore decision, the latest on primary polling as the first states are beginning their races, the sentencing of January 6 rioter and suspected FBI informant Ray Epps, the likelihood of another brinkmanship situation around the government shutdown, and the unredacting of names listed in the Jeffrey Epstein flight logs.
