Dive into the latest political shockwaves with Rita Cosby! Tonight, we break down the massive US and Israeli military strikes dismantling Iranian military infrastructure and leadership. While President Trump warns the biggest strikes are still to come, we ask the tough questions: why are American politicians like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries predicting failure, and why are protesters in US cities mourning the Ayatollah? Plus, we cover the high-stakes Texas Senate primary where Republican heavyweights John Cornyn and Ken Paxton are officially headed to a bitter runoff, and analyze Jasmine Crockett's polarizing, calculated political theater on the Democratic side. Finally, hear the incredible true story of a heroic off-duty police officer who dove into alligator-infested waters to save a woman trapped in a violent boat crash! Learn more about your ad choices.

Sean Noble and Chris Clements break down what they call one of the most consequential weekends of Donald Trump's presidency—focused on Iran, its decades-long role as the centerpiece of Middle East terrorism, and what happens when a theocracy built on oppression suddenly loses the top of the regime. They walk back through the history Americans remember: the 1979 hostage crisis, the fall of the Shah, and how a once-advanced Persian society became a Shia theocracy that crushed dissent and exported chaos through proxies like Hezbollah and Hamas. From there, they react to a CBS report that (in their view) actually spelled out the stakes: Iranians celebrating, crackdowns in the streets, and the dangerous question of what fills the vacuum—reform, dictatorship, civil war, or something else. Then the episode turns into a media accountability rant: they compare the blunt description of Iran's ruler as a murderous dictator to what they say were shockingly soft “obituaries” and headlines from major papers. They argue the American left routinely parrots Iranian talking points (often through the proxy movements), and they call out Democrats' response—highlighting comments from House Democrat leader Hakeem Jeffries and others as fundamentally detached from the reality of Iran's ongoing terrorist aggression. Sean and Chris also get into the legal/political fight in Washington—why Congress hasn't declared war since WWII, how authorizations of force get used instead, and why they believe the U.S. has effectively been in a hot conflict with Iran for decades. They discuss the immediate geopolitical ripple effects too: the Strait of Hormuz, oil markets, regional retaliation, and how Iran's isolation leaves Russia and China as “friends” who still won't come to the rescue when things go sideways. Finally, they hit the internal MAGA debate—calling out Tucker Carlson and others they say are misreading Israel, misrepresenting the facts, and attacking the strike from the right. Their conclusion: this is what “peace through strength” looks like—use power decisively, solve the problem fast, and don't hand the military-industrial complex a blank check for forever wars. #Iran #Trump #Israel #MiddleEast #ForeignPolicy #Politics Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lightbeerdarkmoney/ Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LBDMshow Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/light-beer-dark-money/ Link to the Light Beer Dark Money Blog: https://lightbeerdarkmoney.com/hypocrisy-and-the-aoc-oh-sandy/

Dear Humans, Today we were joined by special guest Wajahat Ali, who broke down Trump's Iran war narrative as it's unraveling in real time. BLESS YOU, WAJ! We see you! What we covered: The utter clownshow trainwreck that is the Trump admin right now. How Marco Rubio just totally contradicted Donald. The MAGA civil war RAGING right now. Megyn Kelly has fallen. "Israel was going to strike anyway" The total absence of a clear explanation or exit strategy. Operation Epstein Distraction is EXTREMELY unpopular. Waj also walked us through his Joy Reid interview with Hakeem Jeffries, including the moment Jeffries dodged direct questions and refused to answer plainly about AIPAC money. We hope you enjoy this presentation of The God Show. Please let God and Jesus know what your favorite quotes and moments from the episode were down in the comments. One day at a time, humans.

Hawk watched Donald Trump's State of the Union address on February 24, 2026, then watched the Democratic response delivered by Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger, and came away far angrier at the Democrats than at Trump. While Trump's behavior was predictable, the Democratic response was scripted, sanitized, and shockingly silent on the most damning facts about a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and fraudster who was indicted 91 times across four jurisdictions, convicted on 34 felony counts for interfering with the 2016 election, incited the January 6th insurrection, and whose company was convicted of 17 fraud-related felonies. Spanberger never said the words convicted felon, rapist, fraudster, fascist, authoritarian, or genocide. She did not mention Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, or the ICE killings of Renee Good, Alex Prey, or Keith Porter. She did not call Trump a liar. She did not mention that he pardoned January 6th insurrectionists, ignored the Constitution, or is dismantling democracy. Meanwhile, Raphael Warnock, when given time on air, immediately named Epstein, called out the administration's wickedness, and spoke to the transfer of wealth from the bottom 75% to the top 1%. Hawk argues Warnock, or the young Somali woman from Minneapolis who spoke plainly about racism and murder, should have delivered the response instead. Congressman Al Green was physically removed from the House floor for holding a sign reading "Black people are not apes," while Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer, and every other Democrat sat silent. Hawk also points to the DNC's own post-2024 autopsy confirming that Democratic support for Israel's actions in Gaza cost them the election, yet Democrats continue accepting millions from AIPAC and J Street.

State of the Union week is here—and the economy is about to take center stage. In this clip, we break down why the numbers look strong, yet Americans still don’t feel it, after years of Biden-era inflation and a shrinking sense of the American Dream. With David From of the American Potential Podcast (Americans for Prosperity), we dig into “boom session” reality, energy prices, overregulation, school choice, and why freedom—not bureaucracy—is the key to prosperity.

Sky and Amanda Roberts, brother and sister-in-law of Virginia Roberts Giuffre, react to the news of the arrest of former Prince Andrew. Virginia Roberts Giuffre's photo with Andrew, the man she accused of participating in her abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein, became one of the most recognizable pieces of evidence in her advocacy for justice for her fellow survivors of Epstein's abuse. Rep. Ro Khanna joins to discuss a new deposition given by Les Wexner, a close associate of Jeffrey Epstein, and why Donald Trump's Justice Department hasn't taken any action on Epstein's associates the way other countries have since the release of millions of Epstein files. Susan Rice, former national security advisor and former U.S. ambassador to the U.N., talks with Jen Psaki about Donald Trump's latest pseudo-governmental vanity project, the "Board of Peace," and Trump's dubious appropriation of $10 billion from U.S. taxpayers for the project. House Democratic Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries talks with Jen Psaki about the upcoming midterm elections.

*Disclaimer* This episode contains strong language Chuck Todd tackles three fast-moving stories shaping the political landscape. First, he digs into the escalating Iran crisis, where the Trump administration has deployed two aircraft carriers, hundreds of fighter jets, and a dozen warships to the Middle East — what Todd calls military adventurism without the consent of Congress. With nuclear talks in Geneva producing no breakthrough and Trump advisers saying there's a 90% chance of kinetic action in the coming weeks, Todd warns that history says hot intervention is coming and that the U.S. may have gone too far to back down, while cautioning that any regime change scenario means America would own the outcome — a lesson the country should have learned from its disastrous track record in Iran. From there, he turns to the Texas Senate race, which he calls an all-timer, breaking down the volatile primaries on both sides: Ken Paxton leading despite millions spent by the GOP establishment to take him down, the tight Crockett-Talarico Democratic primary, and the explosive Colbert-CBS controversy — in which CBS lawyers blocked Colbert from airing a Talarico interview over FCC "equal time" threats, only for the resulting firestorm to generate millions more views on YouTube than it ever would have gotten on broadcast, making Jasmine Crockett the quiet loser in the saga. Todd closes with a sharp critique of crypto's financial coercion of the Democratic Party — pointing to Chuck Schumer reportedly urging Senate Democrats to get on crypto's side after the industry spent heavily to defeat Sherrod Brown — and a Potomac sewage dump that underscores how even basic governance has become hostage to political blame games. Then, George Conway — the conservative lawyer turned leading Trump critic, Lincoln Project co-founder, and now Democratic congressional candidate in New York — joins the Chuck Toddcast for an urgent, no-holds-barred conversation about what he sees as an existential crisis for American constitutional government. Conway, who became a Republican in the 1980s as a "legal conservative" grounded in the Constitution, argues that the party he once joined is now unrecognizable, and that young people have been led to believe conservatism and Trumpism are the same thing. He makes an impassioned case that a third impeachment of Trump isn't just politically justified but a constitutional imperative, warning that Trump is psychologically deteriorating while controlling the military and nuclear arsenal, creating a domestic army through ICE, and presiding over what Conway calls the most corrupt government in America's 250-year history. He points to Mitch McConnell's failure to vote for conviction during the second impeachment trial as the hinge point that could have changed everything — and argues that if impeachment doesn't apply to what Trump has done, the mechanism has no meaning. The conversation goes beyond Trump himself into deeper structural questions about how to repair American democracy. Conway endorses the bipartisan constitutional amendment circulating in the House to nullify presidential pardons — citing Trump intermediaries allegedly being paid for sold pardons — but argues that statutory fixes will be more achievable than amendments, and that Congress needs to codify the old "norms" into enforceable law. He argues that that Democrats should fight fire with fire, with Chuck warning it only feeds whataboutism, and makes the case for incrementalism and welcoming converts rather than saying "I told you so" — pointing to figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene as case studies in evolving away from Trump. Throughout, Conway returns to a central theme: that no positive policy agenda is possible until the current constitutional crisis is resolved, and that America simply cannot survive three more years of a government working to serve one man.

Co-hosts Nick Hauselman and Jared Yates Sexton open with a rare California Corner that's more flood warning than sunshine report. Then they dig into the New York Times reporting on DHS and ICE subpoenas sent to Google, Meta, Discord, and Reddit, aimed at unmasking accounts tracking ICE and criticizing the crackdown. They talk through what that means in practice, why “anonymous” is a fantasy once the state wants names, and how pressure gets applied through watchlists, travel pain, and fear. From there they hit Wajahat Ali pressing Hakeem Jeffries on abolishing ICE and why Democratic leadership keeps dodging the simplest question because they helped build the machine. They also get into Russ Vought and the USAID money story, the right wing status theater of private security, and the East Wing fiasco as the perfect corruption tell. They close on climate, the EPA trying to yank the legal foundation for regulating greenhouse gases, and the ugly truth that leaders have known about this for decades and still refuse to act.

Tonight, we're tackling DHS funding and election integrity. First, Don is joined by Hakeem Jeffries to break down the partial government shutdown fight over Department of Homeland Security funding and what it means for the country. Then we pivot to elections. Kristi Noem says they want to make sure the “right people” are voting. The right people? What exactly does that mean? And should Americans be concerned about how this administration plans to oversee this year's election? Big stakes. Real consequences. No sugarcoating.

The legacy media is still hunting for a “moderate Democrat” like it’s a unicorn—and Jake Tapper’s latest attempt to sell Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear as the answer is painfully transparent. In this clip, Beshear dodges, the “pendulum” talking point gets exposed, and Hakeem Jeffries gets pressured by Joy Reid to go full “Abolish ICE.” The result? A brutal reminder that the Left’s base demands radicalism—and “moderate” is just branding.

Powerful message from Secretary of State Marco Rubio for Europe over the weekend. Hillary Clinton and AOC teamed up to deliver a disastrous double act at the Munich Security Conference, turning what should have been a showcase of American resolve into a bitter anti-Trump therapy session that exposed their outdated liberal agendas. Clinton got thoroughly schooled by a Czech leader on Ukraine and Trump policies, coming off as a divisive relic interrupting and mocking allies while admitting migration "went too far" in a desperate bid for relevance. Meanwhile, AOC fumbled a simple question on defending Taiwan against China with hesitant word salad, all while peddling her socialist spin on foreign policy tying authoritarianism to income inequality—proving both are unfit to represent a strong, united America in the future.

This week on Face the Nation, the Department of Homeland Security is in a shutdown as negotiations over immigration enforcement rules are at a standstill. Two months into the new year, and the government is shut down yet again, this time, only partially, as disputes over President Trump's deportation policy leave lawmakers unable to fund the Department of Homeland Security. Caught in the limbo: TSA agents, the Coast Guard, FEMA employees and thousands of others, some working without pay. We ask Trump's border czar Tom Homan and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries where negotiations stand. Meanwhile, the fallout from the release of Epstein files grows as Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a grilling on Capitol Hill for her department's handling of the investigation. We talk to the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, California Congressman Robert Garcia, about what more he wants to see from the Justice Department as lawmakers get a firsthand look at the unredacted files for the first time. And finally, as world leaders gather at an annual security conference in Munich, we hear about that, and about America's standing in the world, from Republican Senator Thom Tillis.

Let's play “Spot the Desperation”. It's an easy game. Just listen to Democrats discuss any topic, and see if you can…spot the desperation.Trump is a racist, again. This time because of a video that depicted Democrats as animals. Democrats jumped at the chance to paint Trump as a racist, when the Obamas were depicted as apes. Trump didn't play the video, but it play AFTER a video that Trump's team did play. The hoopla over the incident lasted exactly 1 minute and 13 seconds, before it lost steam.Hakeem Jeffries wanted to make sure to register his dismay at President Trump doing nothing, and dropped an f-bomb in one of his comments. Dollar Store Obama is worse than Joe Biden when it comes to acting tough.After the “Trump is racist” tactic failed, Democrats moved on to criticize Trump RX. Lifelong grifters like Elizabeth Warren who championed for lower prescription drug prices poopooed on Trump RX calling it a “Trump vanity project”.

Over the past couple of weeks, Senate Republicans have come up with this plan to bring back the talking filibuster, all in an effort to pass the SAVE America Act. On paper, it is clever. Force Democrats to physically hold the floor to block voter ID legislation that polls as an 80-20 issue. Make them read the phone book. Make them look unserious. Put Jon Ossoff and other swing-state Democrats on the record defending a position that is wildly unpopular nationally.I actually think it would be smart politics. It's also never going to happen.The reason is simple: Senate institutionalists. John Thune does not want to be the Republican leader who weakened the filibuster, even in a limited way. The Senate sees itself as the “august deliberative body,” not the truck stop chaos of the House. No one wants on their résumé that they chipped away at the 60-vote threshold. The irony is that nothing in the rules prevents a talking filibuster. It simply fell out of use. But reviving it would still be seen as escalation.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.And escalation is not what senators do to each other lightly. They are there for six years. They share committee rooms and green rooms. They nurse grudges quietly. They do not enjoy public humiliation.So while conservatives may draw up elaborate procedural roadmaps, this one caps out at tradition. And tradition, in the Senate, wins more often than base energy.The Shutdown Nobody WinsMeanwhile, we are entering an actual shutdown this weekend because Senate Democrats blocked a Department of Homeland Security funding bill after the House had already left town. Democrats escalated their demands from a handful of changes to what is effectively a multi-point overhaul. The problem is not moral clarity. The problem is math.When you shut down the government, history suggests you rarely get what you want. Often, you get nothing. The Trump White House already has a blueprint from the last shutdown: keep the pain manageable, move money around where possible, and wait for pressure to build. If that pressure intensifies, especially around TSA delays, FEMA responses, or spring break travel, Democrats will face the same brutal reality every minority party faces during a shutdown.Just like in the fall, they will have to cut a deal.And when they do, their base will not celebrate incremental concessions. They will accuse leadership of caving. The drawdown of ICE activity in Minneapolis, which could have been framed as a win condition, has already been overtaken by new demands.That is the trap. You negotiate past your leverage point because your base expects maximalism. Then you are left explaining why the maximalist outcome was never achievable in the first place.A State of the Union CircusAll of this sets up a February 24th State of the Union that looks increasingly like a circus. Some House Democrats are openly discussing protests, despite Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries urging restraint.We have seen these moves before. Last year's disruptions did not damage Trump. If anything, they made him look calmer by comparison. When the visuals are heckling and signage next to moments crafted for television, the protest becomes the spectacle, not the message.The deeper issue is control. Neither Mike Johnson nor Hakeem Jeffries appears to have ironclad command over their conferences. The margins are thin. The base pressure is intense. And Trump remains such a polarizing figure that restraint feels like betrayal to some members.So expect noise. Expect moments engineered for viral clips. And expect very little institutional discipline.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:03 - Talking Filibuster DOA00:18:06 - Update00:18:33 - Shutdown00:22:36 - ICE in Minnesota00:25:50 - Democrats SOTU Plans00:28:55 - Interview with Stella Tsantekidou on UK Politics and Epstein01:13:06 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Democrats melt down as voter ID exposes pure hypocrisy. Elizabeth Warren stammers, Jon Ossoff compares voter ID to Jim Crow while demanding ID at his own events, and Hakeem Jeffries flat-out lies about where Americans stand. This breakdown dismantles the left’s false narratives around the SAVE Act, election integrity, and citizenship verification—using their own words against them. The facts are clear, the lies aren’t working, and voters aren’t buying it anymore.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, more than 235 million people across more than 40 states from Arizona to Maine are in the path of a potentially historic winter storm that's expected to extend over 2,000 miles and deliver crippling snow and ice, beginning Friday. A trailing blast of Arctic air associated with the polar vortex is expected to bring a dangerous refreeze that could create long-duration power outages and paralyze travel for days. In anticipation for the intense storm, as of 9 p.m. EST Thursday, nearly 1,300 flights have already been canceled across the U.S. through Saturday, with thousands more expected to be canceled into early next week. Also Texas Governor Greg Abbott says the power grid in Texas will sustain potential loss of power and a subsequent discussion on solar and wind power. Plus seven House Democrats break with Hakeem Jeffries to pass the Department of Homeland Security funding bill, Vice President JD Vance visits Minnesota and a big weekend of football ahead as the NFC/AFC championship will determine who heads to the Superbowl next month where Bad Bunny will wear a dress at the Half Time Show. For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.

In today's eye-opening episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, we mark one year of President Trump's second term with a stark reality check: initial optimism has faded amid stubborn high food prices, unchecked crime in blue zones, lingering DEI divisions, halted illegal immigration but surging legal inflows, and unresolved global tensions. We explore how states sabotage federal efforts, cultural consensus fractures on borders and language, and hyper-partisanship threatens national unity leaving many more pessimistic than hopeful without bold fixes like overhauling rigged elections.We expose the left's power plays in Virginia, now blue-controlled, where Democrats push bills banning hand-counting ballots, eliminating mandatory minimums for rape sentencing, and gerrymandering for a 10D-1R map stealing representation from nearly half the voters. Tina Peters' prison ordeal highlights the human cost of fighting fraud, while we celebrate potential breakthroughs like the House probe into Ilhan Omar's $30M net worth explosion and Trump's Truth Social callouts on Somali fraud schemes.We also hit America's cultural decline fueled by education indoctrination and family breakdown, and where the nation heads in the next 5–10 years. We wrap with Minnesota's weekend chaos, leftist threats from Hakeem Jeffries, and "Angry White Male Studies" absurdity. Ra

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You're Fired! Clay and Buck open with breaking news of another ICE-involved shooting after agents were attacked during an arrest operation. The suspects—identified as Venezuelan illegal immigrants with final deportation orders—reportedly assaulted an officer, prompting him to fire in self-defense. This follows a string of violent confrontations and protests targeting federal agents, with ICE vehicles vandalized and weapons stolen from government vehicles. The hosts warn that Minneapolis has become the epicenter of Resistance 2.0, echoing the chaos of the 2020 BLM riots, and argue that President Trump must act decisively to prevent nationwide unrest. The conversation intensifies as Clay and Buck analyze Trump’s Truth Social post threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act if Minnesota officials fail to stop organized attacks on federal law enforcement. They frame this as a defining moment for Trump’s second term, contrasting his current posture with what they call the missed opportunity to crush BLM riots in 2020. Buck emphasizes that Democrats are weaponizing immigration enforcement as a political wedge, portraying ICE as “Gestapo” and encouraging obstruction—language that, they argue, incites violence against officers. Clay underscores the stakes: Trump cannot afford to break faith with voters on border security, making Minneapolis a “crucible decision” for his presidency. The Left Wants to Abolish ICE Clay and Buck open with sharp analysis of Rep. Shri Thanedar’s renewed call to abolish ICE, reviving a radical slogan first championed by AOC during Trump’s first term. They argue that Democrats’ strategy is clear: dismantle enforcement while keeping immigration laws on the books to avoid openly admitting their open borders agenda. This, they contend, is part of a long-term plan to reshape America’s demographics and political landscape. The hosts highlight Trump’s historic success in reversing decades of migration trends, noting that net migration turned negative in 2025 for the first time since the 1920s. Approximately 2.6 million illegal immigrants left the country through deportations and self-removal, a stark contrast to Biden’s border surge that saw monthly inflows soar to 200,000. Clay and Buck frame this as proof that Trump’s enforcement policies are working, even as Democrats and media allies attempt to undermine ICE operations by portraying agents as brutal and lawless. They warn that rhetoric from figures like Hakeem Jeffries—accusing ICE of “brutalizing American families”—is fueling hostility and setting the stage for violence against federal officers, echoing the chaos of 2020’s BLM riots. Gov't Makes Things Expensive The conversation then pivots to Trump’s new “Great Healthcare Plan,” unveiled by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, which emphasizes affordability and transparency. The plan aims to permanently lower prescription drug prices, redirect subsidies from insurers to consumers, mandate public price disclosures to eliminate surprise bills, and hold insurance companies accountable with clear rate comparisons. Clay and Buck stress that Trump learned from Republicans’ 2018 midterm losses over healthcare and is now positioning affordability—alongside housing and credit card interest reform—as a cornerstone of his economic message. They argue that Trump’s proactive approach on healthcare and cost-of-living issues could resonate deeply with voters, contrasting his market-driven solutions with Democrats’ push for government control. Should We Buy Greenland? Updates on President Trump’s Greenland acquisition push, following high-level meetings between U.S., Danish, and Greenlandic officials at the White House. Clay and Buck explain Trump’s rationale for pursuing Greenland as a long-term national security asset, citing its strategic Arctic location, potential mineral wealth, and historical parallels to Seward’s purchase of Alaska and the Louisiana Purchase. They argue that Greenland could be critical for monitoring nuclear submarine activity and countering Russian and Chinese influence in the Arctic, framing Trump’s vision as a century-long play for American dominance rather than a short-term real estate flip.
