In this episode of Fault Lines, hosts Jamarl Thomas and Melik Abdul explore global topics, with a particular focus on the rising tensions in the Middle East, with the most recent incident being a drone strike in the Middle East that claimed the lives of three US troops.

In the opening segment, Fault Lines spoke to Dr. Hasan Unal, professor of Political Science and International Relations at Bashkent University in Ankara, Turkiye, about the recent drone attack on the Syria-Jordan border that claimed three US troops, with the Biden administration pledging a response amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict.

In the second hour, podcaster Steven Abramowicz joins Fault Lines to dissect President Joe Biden's 2024 election campaign, with a particular focus on engaging South Carolina's black voters.

In the third hour, attorney Steve Hayes spoke with Fault Lines about the defamation ruling against Former President Donald Trump. A New York jury orders him to pay $83.3 million to Elizabeth Jean Carroll for damaging her credibility as an advice columnist.

Later in the final hour, Fault Lines was joined by attorney and political analyst Ajay Pallegar about the ongoing border crisis as Biden vows to 'shut down the border' if Congress passes a bipartisan deal that would harm his claim in addressing the surging migration at the southern border.
