As day six of the Mideast war dawned, the US and Israel continued to pound targets in Iran, which is launching fresh strikes of its own against US allies in the region. We're also seeing more evacuation flights from the middle east; the State Department says 20,000 people have returned to the US since the war began. Meanwhile, President Trump is now demanding that he's personally involved in selecting Iran's next leader.

Two presidents, countless mentions in the Epstein files. But only one is getting deposed under oath. That would be Bill Clinton, no stranger to Republican-led investigations. One day after his wife Hillary testified, it's his turn to answer questions from the House Oversight Committee about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Today's show begins as Hillary Clinton is behind closed doors, testifying before a Republican-led committee about Jeffrey Epstein. Clinton, who says she has no recollection of ever meeting Epstein, is no stranger to congressional investigations. Republicans have sought to grill her on everything from a failed Arkansas land deal back in the 1990s to the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi in the 2010s.

At his record-long SOTU address last night, President Trump claimed the United States is "winning too much" with an economy that's "roaring."

Tonight's State of the Union address comes at one of the most turbulent times of Donald Trump's second term. In just the past few days, the president's approval rating hit a new low, the Supreme Court struck down his signature economic policy, and now he's sending a massive military buildup to the Middle East while threatening to strike Iran. Whatever he says tonight, Trump warns his speech will be "long," which says a lot considering his last address clocked in at a whopping 99 minutes.
