The Democratic election victory yesterday was a blue tsunami and a clear warning to President Trump of what more is coming. Expect to see huge Democratic gains in next year's midterm elections. These elections have become a referendum on how badly the Trump administration is doing on immigration, inflation and just general discrimination and violence against anyone that doesn't look like a white American.

In this week''s episode I'm in Brasilia, Brazil, where I've come to have dental work done as it's cheaper than in the United States. I also discuss how I studied Arabic at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah after I graduated from the American School of Brasilia in 1982.

In this episode I talk about how the Democrats need to have better representatives than Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries to fight for Medicare funding and to get tax credits restored to Obamacare health insurance plans before Dec. 31. I also preview my new book, 'Exile of the Heart', my memoir that is coming out later in October 2025. Finally, I discuss the latest Brazilian telenovela craze of "Vale Tudo", and how I've been watching it religiously from Houston.

I discuss the recent special session of the UN General Assembly in New York, held to discuss a two-state solution to the Palestine-Israel conflict; How the US is going to bail out Argentina to the tune of $20 billion; Will Pakistani nuclear weapons defend Saudi Arabia from a possible Israeli attack? And the release of Egyptian activist Alaa Abdel Fattah this week is a victory.

I talk about how the ferocious pushback by the American public made Disney change its mind and allow Jimmy Kimmel back on the air this week.
