President Obama faced criticism for attending a baseball game in Cuba with Derek Jeter immediately following the Brussels attacks. During an interview, Obama stated that ISIL is not an "existential threat" to the United States. The hosts deconstruct the term "existential," calling it a military scam phrase used to downplay threats while maintaining a state of theater.

John C. Dvorak deconstructs the Sunday New York Times, noting the heavy focus on Derek Jeter's 3,000th hit over international crises in Libya and Tajikistan. The segment includes clips of Thomas Friedman discussing the lack of leadership in Israel and the potential for "shock therapy" regarding Palestinian statehood at the UN.
