Topic: Vietnam Summit

The Michael Cohen congressional hearings received gavel-to-gavel coverage on network television, potentially overshadowing the diplomatic summit occurring simultaneously in Vietnam between the United States and North Korea. C-SPAN notably relegated the hearing to C-SPAN 3, while prioritizing other content on its primary channels and radio station.

The diplomatic summit in Vietnam between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un ended without a formal deal, which the hosts attributed to interference from "neocons" like John Bolton and Mike Pompeo. A speculative discussion followed regarding the influence of the military-industrial complex and potential blackmail operations within the highest levels of government.
