The Trump Administration’s narrative that General Qassem Soleimani was involved in planning for imminent attacks against US embassies and that this was the reason for his murder is beginning to unravel. President Trump said that attacks were imminent against four US embassies abroad.

Ben Norton, a journalist with the Grayzone and co-host of the Moderate Rebels podcast, joins the show.
