Get ready for a wild, unfiltered ride through breaking news, massive political scandals, and life-saving safety facts!

Jeremy Cordeaux is in the garage with Pete and Gary for a Court of Public Opinion that runs hot on where your money is going. Top of the list: a quietly announced $650,000 grant scheme paying up to $20,000 a head to fly climate activists and Aboriginal groups to COP31 at a luxury Turkish beachside resort — while 240,000 Australians sit in energy poverty and almost $150 million has already been allocated to the campaign. Jeremy's question is simple: if you want diversity in the delegation, why not invite a few people who think the whole thing is a con? He also takes aim at Chris Bowen's 70-strong support staff, the absurdity of Australia locking up its uranium and coal while India and China top the OECD prosperity chart and we sit second from the bottom, and Canstar's finding that Australia now has the highest inflation rate in the developed world — alongside a record $19.4 billion in credit card debt costing $10 million a day in interest. Elsewhere: Professor Victor Gao's claim on the ABC that China can strike anywhere on earth within 20 minutes, and why Jeremy thinks it makes no sense ("why would you bomb it when you've already bought it?"); 47,000 hours of ambulance ramping in Adelaide in June alone; the schizophrenia of gambling ads that end by telling you not to gamble, when naming a cigarette brand on air is a crime; 31 charges over an Adelaide Plains piggery; and a wander through 16 July — Apollo 11, Ginger Rogers doing it backwards in high heels, Margaret Court, Adam Scott, Jane Birkin's handbag, and the story of Derryn Hinch's very first radio broadcast, live from the Kennedy Space Center. Jeremy also reflects on reports of the death of actor Sam Neill at 78.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The capitulation is OVER!

The Middle East is on the absolute brink, and the mainstream media is completely silent!

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're taking a deeper look at the Israel-Iran conflict, the continuing questions surrounding the Epstein files, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We'll discuss why these stories continue to dominate public conversation, explore the political and geopolitical questions people are asking, and examine why these events should be viewed together rather than in isolation.--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

He is one of the most effective communicators in Congress in advancing our shared values and principles. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. He has been an active Boy Scout volunteer, serving as both Cubmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster. The son of two public school teachers, Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he graduated with high distinction as one of the youngest Baker Scholars in decades. Congressman Fine also serves as a member of the Freedom Caucus, Republican Study Committee and the Judea and Samaria Caucus. The conversation will explore practical and principled approaches to reducing the cost of housing and healthcare, as well as the critical importance of election integrity, with a strong majority of Americans supporting voter identification requirements, according to Pew Research. Recent studies cited by the White House suggest a correlation between the deportation of individuals residing in the United States illegally and declining housing costs in several major metropolitan areas. The Trump administration noted that "14 of the top 20 U.S. metro areas with the largest undocumented migrant populations experienced year-over-year declines in home listing prices." The discussion also highlights historical immigration enforcement trends. According to published reports, the administration of President Barack Obama formally removed approximately 3 million noncitizens from the United States during his time in office. The program will also examine growing concerns over Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons and discuss strategies to prevent the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism from threatening global security and holding the free world hostage. americasrt.com https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @RepFine @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

After a brief break, Todd returns with a firsthand story from a weekend AAU basketball tournament before diving into a critical global issue: Iran's nuclear ambitions. While some political voices claim there is “no threat,” even mainstream media outlets are now acknowledging that Iran may possess enough highly enriched uranium to produce multiple nuclear weapons. Todd breaks down the contradiction, the political messaging behind it, and what it means for U.S. foreign policy. He also explores the broader ideological conflict at play, why comparisons to other nuclear nations fall short, and how history—especially post-9/11—should shape our understanding of today's risks.

While headlines scream “peace talks,” something much bigger is happening behind the scenes. Massive troop movements, military buildup, and rising tension with Iran suggest the real story isn't diplomacy—it's preparation. Tara breaks down what's actually unfolding, why the media narrative doesn't match reality, and what could be coming next.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: U.S. Sends More Troops Despite “Endgame” Talk — Even as the White House signals the war with Iran may be nearing its conclusion, the Pentagon is surging thousands of additional troops into the region. We break down what this buildup really means—and how it's designed to pressure Tehran at the negotiating table while preparing for escalation if talks collapse. North Korea's Nuclear Program Speeds Up — New warnings from the International Atomic Energy Agency suggest Pyongyang is expanding its uranium enrichment capabilities, potentially allowing Kim Jong Un to grow his nuclear arsenal faster—and with far less visibility to the outside world.

In this episode of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew Parker breaks down the escalating conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran—and the controversial ceasefire strategy introduced by President Donald J. Trump.Is Iran a negotiating partner that can be trusted, or a regime driven by ideology that rejects lasting peace?

Andrew also addresses the broader political response, including criticism from both allies and opponents, and what this moment could mean for the future of the Middle East, global stability, and U.S. foreign policy.At the core of the discussion is a critical question: Are we witnessing a path to lasting peace, or a missed opportunity to fundamentally reshape the region?This is a direct, unfiltered analysis of one of the most consequential geopolitical moments in recent history.Support the showThe Andrew Parker Show - Politics, Israel & The Law.  Follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and X. Subscribe to our email list at www.theandrewparkershow.comCopyright © 2026 The Andrew Parker Show - All Rights Reserved.

What does a nuclear-armed Iran really mean for the United States, Israel, and the rest of the world? Former Israeli Ambassador to the United States and New York Times bestselling historian Michael Oren joins the show for a powerful, unfiltered conversation recorded amid active missile strikes on Tel Aviv. Ambassador Oren breaks down why the current war with Iran is not just Israel's fight — it's America's too.

In this episode, we cover: What it's like living under missile fire during Passover in Tel Aviv Why a nuclear Iran is a global threat — not just a Middle Eastern one The Cold War strategy that could defeat the Iranian regime without boots on the ground How Iran's jihadist ideology makes it far more dangerous than North Korea The alarming rise of antisemitism on American college campuses post-October 7th Why "Israel dragged us into this war" is a classic antisemitic trope — and who's spreading it Whether you support or question U.S. involvement in the Iran conflict, this episode is essential listening for anyone who wants to understand the geopolitical stakes of one of the most consequential moments in modern Middle Eastern history.

One of Donald Trump's stated reasons for going to war with Iran is to destroy the nuclear threat he says it poses.  But by starting the conflict has he made the world less safe? There are concerns around what happens to Iran's enriched nuclear material and the lessons other countries will take from Iran's being hit while remaining at the threshold short of getting a bomb.Today, Kelsey Davenport from the Arms Control Association on why it could all lead to more nuclear weapons around the world.Featured: Kelsey Davenport, Director for Nonproliferation Policy at the Arms Control Association

Operation Epic Fury / Rising Lion: Inside the U.S. / Israel Strike on Iran | war powers, nuclear threat, regional fallout, and consequences at home. a coordinated U.S. and Israeli strike — hit more than 1,000 Iranian military and nuclear-linked targets, killing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and triggering immediate retaliation across the region. In this episode, we break down what led to the strike, the administration's red lines, and the intelligence claims surrounding Iran's uranium enrichment. We examine the latest IAEA findings, Tehran's 60% enriched uranium stockpile, and the debate over whether Iran was truly days from a nuclear breakout — or whether diplomacy still had runway. We also tackle the constitutional question head-on: Did the President violate the War Powers Resolution? We walk through the legal framework, historical precedent, executive authority, congressional notification requirements, and what critics on Capitol Hill are arguing versus what the administration claims is firmly within presidential power. Beyond the missiles and airstrikes, we explore the deeper regional fault line shaping this conflict — the 1,400-year-old Sunni–Shia divide. Iran as the dominant Shia power. The Sunni Gulf monarchies calculating survival. Hezbollah's entry into the fight. The internal Muslim conflict that predates modern borders — and why it still dictates alliances, proxy wars, and regional escalation today. We break down the global chessboard: Israel's security calculus, Gulf state vulnerability, NATO positioning, China's oil dependency, Russia's military coordination with Tehran, and what this means for great-power competition. Then we analyze reactions at home — on both sides of the aisle. Democrats raising constitutional and escalation concerns. Progressives framing the strike as Western interventionism. Libertarians warning of endless war and blowback. Conservatives divided between America First restraint and muscular deterrence. Who supports it. Who opposes it. And why. We also examine the domestic consequences: • The Strait of Hormuz and rising oil prices • Inflation risk tied to energy markets • Terror retaliation and asymmetric threats • The power vacuum inside Iran — IRGC control, succession scenarios, and regime-change speculation Was this preemptive defense? Strategic decapitation? Or the start of a wider regional war? This is a full geopolitical and constitutional breakdown of Operation Epic Fury — separating intelligence from rhetoric, law from politics, and strategy from media spin. Like. Share. Subscribe.

On March 2, 2026, President Trump delivered his most extensive remarks yet on the escalating conflict with Iran, declaring the U.S. will do "whatever it takes" to achieve its military objectives. Despite initial projections of a 4-to-5-week operation, the President signaled a major shift, suggesting the conflict could continue indefinitely until Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities are "annihilated." In this episode, we break downThe "Whatever It Takes" Doctrine: Why the administration moved away from a fixed timeline for Operation Epic Fury.Nuclear & Ballistic Objectives: Analyzing the White House's insistence that this is a preemptive strike to prevent an "intolerable" nuclear threat.The "Forever War" Controversy: Breaking down Trump's social media posts claiming U.S. munitions allow for a "forever" successful conflict.The Death of the Supreme Leader: The aftermath of the strike that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the resulting power vacuum in Tehran.Casualties & Retaliation: The latest on the six U.S. service members killed in Kuwait and the widening retaliatory strikes across the Middle East.The Economic Ripple: How the conflict is upending energy markets and the administration's plan for "political risk insurance" for oil tankers.Key Perspective: We compare this current intervention to the January operation in Venezuela, which the President has cited as a model for "regime change from within."

Over the weekend, President Trump launched Operation Epic Fury, the most ambitious US military operation in decades. In the wake of the 2025 12-Day War, Iran again worked to reconstitute its nuclear weapons program and its missile arsenal. These threats, in combination with the massacre of tens of thousands of Iranians in January, brought the US to the brink of war. The operation has targeted IRGC command, missile defense systems, and senior regime leadership, including the Supreme Leader and his successors. Secretary Hegseth has stated that nothing is off the table, including the possible deployment of ground forces, an option potentially necessary to secure Iran's nuclear materials. Our guest, David Albright, warns that failing to secure those materials will ultimately undermine the operation's success. In the weeks ahead, what indicators will signal whether the regime is truly at risk of collapse? Beyond military targets, what political considerations must be addressed to ensure lasting success once combat operations cease?David Albright is the founder and President of the non-profit Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, D.C. He has written numerous assessments on secret nuclear weapons programs throughout the world, has authored or co-authored nine books and briefed policymakers on non-proliferation policy making.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

The Nuclear Threat: China's Arsenal Expansion and No First Use Abandonment — Peter Huessy — Huessy argues that China has effectively abandoned its official "No First Use" nuclear policy, evidenced through explicit nuclear threats against Japan regarding Taiwan intervention scenarios. Huessy documents massive American intelligence failures regarding Chinese nuclear arsenal size, with projections indicating Beijing will possess thousands of warheads by the 2030s rather than maintaining historically minimal deterrent levels. Huessy proposes that potential South Korean or Japanese nuclear weapons development could leverage coercive pressure compelling Chinese engagement in serious arms control negotiations. 1959.  US PAID $100.00 FOR A MIG-15 TO DEFECT

China's Nuclear Threat to Japan — Jack Burnham — Burnham documents China's escalated nuclear threats against Japan, explicitly threatening nuclear weapons deployment if Tokyo militarily intervenes in Taiwan conflict scenarios, marking a significant shift from Chinese minimal deterrence posture toward aggressive nuclear coercion. Burnhamcharacterizes this escalation as reflecting Chinese regional anxiety regarding American-led alliance structures, particularly strengthening U.S.-Japan security cooperation. Burnham recommends robust reinforcement of American-Japanese alliance relationships and extended nuclear deterrence commitments as essential counterbalance to Chinesenuclear blackmail and regional hegemonic ambitions. 1951 LAS VEGAS

Gaza Conflict Persists and Iran's Nuclear Threat Revived Guest: Jonathan Schanzer Jonathan Schanzer confirms the Gaza conflict continues unabated, with Israel responding to ongoing Hamas attacks while Hamas deliberately slow-rolls hostage returns to maintain negotiating leverage. Hamas's fighting force is now commanded by inexperienced officers and young combatants operating in shrinking territory with diminishing resources. Schanzer also addresses alarming reports that Iran is rebuilding a suspect nuclear enrichment site, underscoring that maintaining peace requires constant vigilance and sustained pressure against malevolent actors determined to destabilize the region.
