Iran's nuclear program has long been a source of international tension. Early in U.S. President Donal Trump's second term, hopes for a diplomatic resolution resurfaced—until June, when Israel launched strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites. Days later, the United States joined the conflict, and Iran retaliated with missile attacks and suspended cooperation with nuclear inspectors.With both Washington and Tehran signaling interest in returning to talks despite the violence, what are the prospects for diplomacy now? To discuss where things stand and what a path forward might look like, Just Security's co-editor-in-chief, Tess Bridgeman, is joined by  Richard Nephew, a leading expert on Iran's nuclear program and former Deputy Special Envoy for Iran.Show Notes: Just Security's Israel-Iran Conflict Collection Richard Nephew's “Did the Attacks on Iran Succeed?” in Foreign Affairs Kelsey Davenport's “Israeli Strikes Risk Driving Iran Toward Nuclear Weapons” in Just SecurityBrianna Rosen, Tess Bridgeman, and Nima Gerami's “The Day After U.S. Strikes on Iran's Nuclear Program: A Policy and Legal Assessment” in Just Security  Brianna Rosen's “Intelligence Implications of the Shifting Iran Strike Narrative” in Just SecurityBrian O'Neill's “What Counts as a Win?: Battle Damage Assessments and Public Messaging ” in Just Security Brian Finucane's “The Need for a Congressional Rebuttal on Trump's Iran Attack”   in Just Security  James Acton's “Guest Post: Sorry, Mr. Secretary, producing uranium metal isn't particularly difficult” in Arms Control Wonk

L.A. Secret Police. Inside the LAPD Elite Spy Network is a New York Times and Los Angeles Times Bestseller. This incredible non-fiction book rips the lid off the LAPD and exposes the reader to its dark underbelly of corruption during the reign of Chief Daryl Gates. L.A. cops ruined lives and reputations, inflicted mindless brutality, committed murder and engaged in massive cover-ups. In Los Angeles, police corruption was much more than unmarked envelopes stuffed with cash. It was a total corruption of power. For decades LAPD engaged in massive illegal spying and lied about it. Its spying targets included politicians, movie stars, professional athletes, news reporters and anyone wielding power or those of interest to Daryl Gates. Incredibly, the spying targets included a Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, a Secretary of Defense, a current Governor and the President of the United States. It all happened in Los Angeles.Detective Rothmiller is the modern-day Frank Serpico; he exposed the tentacles of corruption which reached to the highest levels within the LAPD and Washington D.C. It wasn't long after that an assassin attempted to take his life. It was apparent to many that powerful forces wanted him silenced. Incredibly, in this book Detective Rothmiller names names! See why this book changed the LAPD and is required reading at many universities. As former Assistant United States Attorney Marvin Rudnick said, “Rothmiller was in a position to know. He did very sensitive work.”Every book has an ending. However, the ending of this book will shock you. Within the new epilogue is a multi-page essay written especially for this updated book by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist David Cay Johnston. In it he describes his personal experience as a target of Daryl Gates illegal intelligence operations while he served as a Los Angeles Times reporter. You'll also read the challenge posed by detective Rothmiller to the LAPD. A challenge LAPD has refused to answer.Since releasing this updated eBook, Detective Rothmiller has been interviewed dozens of times by the national media regarding current NSA domestic spying and the 2013 murderous rampage of former LAPD cop Christopher Dorner. In late 2013 Detective Rothmiller was interviewed for a major television documentary which will expose corruption and major crimes committed at the highest levels. The documentary is scheduled for release in 2016. https://amzn.to/404ozAVBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Happy 4th of July! In today's classic episode of 'Will Cain Country,' Will shares a deep conversation with his good friend, former 'Fox & Friends Weekend' co-host, and current Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth. Yes, the same Pete Hegseth who Jon Stewart called one of the most sexually attractive men in news. From laughs to serious ground, Will and Pete cover the launch of the Texas Stock Exchange, but the centerpiece of the discussion is Pete's book, The War on Warriors. He argues that the U.S. military, once America's most meritocratic institution, is being hollowed out by DEI mandates, CRT dogma, and political careerism. Pete shares raw, real stories from active-duty service members and calls out leadership by name, including General Mark Milley. They close with the big questions: Can Trump fix this in a second term? Should we bring back the draft? And what's the greatest threat to America today? (Spoiler: it's not China.) Do you think we have some of those answers today? This is a conversation that hits hard and shows why President Donald Trump tapped Pete as Secretary of Defense.

A ProPublica investigative report alleges Noem took a cut of political donations and didn't disclose it. Our Dakota Political Junkies offer their analysis.

Ryan Zinke is a fifth generation Montanan who serves as Representative for Montana's First Congressional District covering 16 counties in western Montana including the cities of Bozeman, Butte, Missoula, Kalispell. First elected to Congress in 2014, and serving as U.S. Secretary of the Interior between noncontiguous terms, Zinke has built a track record of accomplishments in energy, conservation, tribal and military issues. Now in his third term, Zinke is a member of the House Committee on Appropriations, focusing his legislative agenda on restoring accountability to federal spending, restoring American energy dominance, and bolstering national security at our borders and beyond. Ryan began public service in 1985 when he joined the U.S. Navy and graduated from Officer Candidate School. He was recruited to join the U.S. Navy SEALs where he went on dozens of deployments targeting terrorist cells in Asia, war criminals in Bosnia, and combatting the rise of radical Islamic terrorists in the middle east. During his military career he held a number of leadership positions including as Ground Forces and Task Force commander at SEAL Teams SIX oversaw the U.S. Navy SEAL BUD/S training after 9/11, and was Deputy/Acting Commander of Joint Special Forces during the Iraq war. In 2006 he was awarded the Bronze Star for his service. Commander Zinke retired from active duty in 2008 after serving for 23 years. Following his military service, Ryan was elected to the Montana State Senate and was twice elected as Montana's sole member of the U.S. House of Representatives. During his first two terms as Congressman, Zinke served on the House Armed Services Committee and Natural Resources Committee. As a leading member of the Natural Resources Committee, Ryan challenged the Obama Administration on their policies that locked Montanans out of public lands and introduced legislation to strengthen public access and conservation. In December 2016, Congressman Zinke was nominated to be the United States Secretary of the Interior by President Donald J. Trump and later confirmed by a bipartisan vote in the Senate.

Genesis is a profound exploration of how artificial intelligence is reshaping the human experience—our cognition, ethics, politics, and even our sense of self. Our book this month was co-authored by three people. Eric Schmidt who was the CEO of Google for nearly 20 years. In the last 15 years Eric Schmidt and Henry Kissinger developed a deep friendship which turned into several collaborations. Henry Kissinger was Secretary of State in the Nixon administration and he has continued to be influential and controversial on the world stage for most of his life. The third author is a computer scientist (Craig Mundie), the book blends historical insight, technological expertise, and philosophical inquiry.  It offers a potential roadmap for navigating the AI era. It argues that AI is not merely a tool but also challenges the foundations of human knowledge and dignity.This book was extremely important to Henry Kissinger who continued to make edits to the book during the last week of his life with Henry's wife and Eric Schmidt by his bedside.The book is divided into five main sections. Part I: The Cognitive RevolutionPart II: Human Dignity and the SpiritPart III: Politics, Security, and Global OrderPart IV: Economics and SocietyPart V: A Roadmap for the FutureGenesis is not a technical manual or a utopian or even dystopian manifesto. It's a deeply reflective, interdisciplinary meditation on what it means to be human in an age of intelligent machines. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

On April 14, 1865, America's triumph in the Civil War turned to tragedy when President Abraham Lincoln was shot in the head by actor John Wilkes Booth at Ford's Theatre. But this was no random act by a lone madman — it was part of a sweeping conspiracy to overthrow the federal government in one night of terror. In this gripping episode, we uncover the untold story of how Booth's plot evolved from a desperate scheme to kidnap Lincoln into a coordinated plan to kill the President, Vice President, and Secretary of State simultaneously.Sean, Eric and Jorge explore how John Wilkes Booth, a charismatic and bitter Confederate sympathizer, gathered a band of conspirators who were fiercely loyal to him personally and driven by rage at the Union's victory. You'll meet Lewis Powell, the brutal ex-soldier assigned to assassinate Secretary of State Seward; George Atzerodt, the nervous boatman who was supposed to kill Vice President Johnson but lost his nerve; and Mary Surratt, the boardinghouse owner whose tavern hid Booth's weapons. walk through the conspirators' failed kidnapping plans, their meetings at Surratt's boardinghouse, and the moment Lincoln's speech on Black suffrage convinced Booth that murder was the only option.On the night of April 14, Booth executed his plan with chilling precision: he slipped into Lincoln's box during Our American Cousin and fired a single shot that would forever change the nation. Meanwhile, Powell's savage attack on Seward nearly succeeded, and Atzerodt's cowardice spared Johnson's life. In the chaos that followed, Booth leapt to the stage, shouting “Sic semper tyrannis!” as he fled into the night.Join us as we unravel the dark conspiracy that sought to decapitate America's leadership at its most vulnerable moment, and discover how Booth's twisted vision of heroism ended with the first presidential assassination in U.S. history — and the beginning of a manhunt that would grip the nation.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

With  the appointment of Robert F Kennedy, Jr.  as Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Trump administration has systematically targeted the next generation of scientists and public health leaders. He has cut science funding to its lowest level in decades. More than 20,000 jobs were eliminated, billions of dollars in scientific research has been threatened or paused, and a budget draft proposes a major restructuring of Health and Human Services.The Trump administration has asked Federal agencies to cancel contracts with Harvard worth an additional $450 million after canceling more than $2.2 billion in federal research grants. Among these grants and contracts were medical research projects.The proposed budget for the NIH includes a 40% cut, the CDC faces a budget cut of about half its spending, and the NSF (National Science Foundation) 2026 budget would be cut in half. These budget cuts could  drastically affect the health of Americans for generations.RFK, Jr , fired 17 expert members of a committee that advises the CDC on what vaccines people in the United States should take and when, making families less safe.And RFK, Jr. aims to prohibit government scientists from publishing in top journals, citing pharmaceutical influence and corruption concerns. He proposes new in-house journals for NIH-funded research, questioning the peer-review process of established journals.To help us understand the ramifications of all of this, we invited Stephen Spielberg, MD to help us through the complexities of this strange time in medicine and science.I asked Steve for some background information so I could introduce him properly on this podcast.  He replied “if you wake me in the middle of the night and ask what I “do”, I would say I am a doctor, a pediatrician, and all I have done as a basic and clinical scientist, as a medical school dean, as deputy commissioner of the FDA – all that comes back to a focus on the care of sick children, the prevention of disease, and optimization of health, and remembering humbly that we are all human, all on a vast journey of learning and striving for a better world.”I urge you all to read Steve's full biography at our web site (https://www.specificallyforseniors.com) about this podcast.Steve and I discussed medical research in the time of the Trump administration, the arbitrary cuts in funding of the NIH FDA and CDC, vaccines, RFK's proposal that research documentation be submitted to a government controlled journal, the status of medical research and the United States standing in the international order, public health and funding cuts and his personal experience treating two brothers with a rare genetic disorder.MEMORY LANE INFORMATIONFor Individuals, Family and Caregivershttps://bit.ly/4mtTG2hThere is a 30% discount for annual subscriptions, please use code SFORSENIORS in the promo box.For Professional Care Facilitieshttps://www.memory-lane.tv/contact-adult-carePlease place "Specifically for Seniors" in the Ambassador LineResearchhttps://www.memory-lane.tv/researchDisclaimer: Specifically for Seniors receives a small stipend with each subscription that helps to keep the podcast on the air.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Policy, an influential CDC committee that shapes U.S. vaccine policy, has become a flashpoint in recent weeks. Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all 17 members and replaced them with 7 new members — many of whom do not have deep expertise in vaccines, and some of whom have spread vaccine misinformation. NPR public health correspondent Pien Huang was at the new working group's first meeting last week. This episode, she talks with Emily about the sweeping changes they promised to how vaccine policy is made in the U.S. — and resurrected issues that have been advanced by groups that question vaccines.

His experience, as chronicled in these pages, tells the story of Secretary Modly's quest to advance the Department of the Navy's preparedness for the challenges of this century. As Acting Secretary of the Navy he held fast to the mantra of “acting, not pretending,” and thus advocated aggressively for the Navy and Marine Corps' future ― a future he believed would be defined by uncertainty and unpredictability. Every Friday he wrote a personal message to the entire Department regardless of rank. Those messages were called SECNAV Vectors. Each Vector was intended to clearly communicate his priorities and to establish a rapport with all levels of the organization. The subject of each Vector was inspired by real events that occurred in real time. As these events unfolded , the Secretary's unyielding emphasis on being prepared for unpredictable events are proven to be prescient as the Navy found itself, unintentionally, in the center of COVID-19 crisis.

The relationship between Fox News and Donald Trump is not just close; it can be profoundly influential. Trump frequently responds to segments in real time online—even to complain about a poll he doesn't like. He has tapped the network for nearly two dozen roles within his Administration—including the current Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, a former Fox News host. The network is also seen as having an outsized impact on his relationship with his base, and even on his agenda. Most recently, it's been reported that Fox News' coverage of the Iran-Israel conflict played a role in Trump's decision to enter that fight. And while the network's right-wing commentators—from Sean Hannity to Laura Ingraham to Mark Levin—tend to grab the most headlines and stand as the ideological coloring of the network, “Special Report,” Fox's 6 P.M. broadcast, anchored by Bret Baier, is essential to the conservative-media complex. Baier draws more than three million viewers a night, at times surpassing legacy brands like “CBS Evening News,” despite being available in half as many homes. Baier insists on his impartiality, but his network's reputation as an outlet for the right and its connection to President Trump himself can make his job representing the news arm of the network more challenging. And, when it comes to Trump and his relationship to the media, Baier tells David Remnick, “I think it is this cat-and-mouse game. You know, for all of the things he says about the media . . . he's reaching out and doing interviews with the same people he says are nasty.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Ed Miliband, the UK's Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero. Miliband is on a mission to transform Britain into a clean energy superpower by 2030, aiming to cut bills, create jobs, and enhance energy security through zero-carbon electricity - despite being dubbed a "net zero zealot" by some newspapers....

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy's revamped CDC vaccine advisory board stopped recommending certain flu vaccines this week. On this week's On the Media, a scientist debunks the claims that RFK, Jr.'s appointees are making. Plus, how the media covered the U.S. bombing of Iran.[00:00] Host Micah Loewinger unspools the Trump administration's attempts to control the narrative around the war in Iran, including the president's insistence on the “total obliteration” of Iran's nuclear sites, conflicting reports over whether or not Iran had a nuclear weapons program in the works, and how the media is missing the mark.[00:00] Host Brooke Gladstone speaks with Paul Offit, the director of the Vaccine Education Center and a physician in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, about how the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., purged the CDC's vaccine advisory committee members, the controversial figures Kennedy replaced them with, and what impact this will have on the future of vaccines and immunology in the US. [00:00] Brooke continues her conversation with Paul Offit about the new controversial figures appointed to the CDC's vaccine advisory committee, and how science communication could improve in the next public health crisis.  Further reading:“Lawmakers and Pundits Speed Run Iraq WMDs-Level Lies About Iran,” by Sarah Lazare and Adam Johnson“Donald Trump and Sean Hannity Set Off a Wave of Disinformation After Iran Bombing,” by David Gilbert On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

The relationship between Fox News and Donald Trump is not just close; it can be profoundly influential. Trump frequently responds to segments in real time online—even to complain about a poll he doesn't like. He has tapped the network for nearly two dozen roles within his Administration—including the current Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, a former Fox News host. The network is also seen as having an outsized impact on his relationship with his base, and even on his agenda. Most recently, it's been reported that Fox News' coverage of the Iran-Israel conflict played a role in Trump's decision to enter that fight. And while the network's right-wing commentators—from Sean Hannity to Laura Ingraham to Mark Levin—tend to grab the most headlines and stand as the ideological coloring of the network, “Special Report,” Fox's 6 P.M. broadcast, anchored by Bret Baier, is essential to the conservative-media complex. Baier draws more than three million viewers a night, at times surpassing legacy brands like “CBS Evening News,” despite being available in half as many homes. Baier insists on his impartiality, but his network's reputation as an outlet for the right and its connection to President Trump himself can make his job representing the news arm of the network more challenging. And, when it comes to Trump and his relationship to the media, Baier tells David Remnick, “I think it is this cat-and-mouse game. You know, for all of the things he says about the media . . . he's reaching out and doing interviews with the same people he says are nasty.”

And we're not just talking about the show in the sky on the 4th of July. As you know, President Trump wants the "big, beautiful bill" on his desk to sign his tax cuts permanently into law. But first, some messiness in the Senate is causing angst. Too many changes, then it heads back to the House who barely passed their version weeks ago. Can these two chambers of Congress get on the same page with a week to go? Stigall gets down in the weeds today on this so you're fully up to speed on where it stands and who's on what side of these issues. The former Secretary of the US Senate - Kelly Johnston returns to share perspective on this person you're hearing about called the Senate parliamentarian who's derailing hugely important parts of this bill. But as you'll learn, this person shouldn't and technically doesn't have the power to stop anything. Meanwhile, Congressman Scott Perry on the House side joins us to handicap what's in store when the Senate version passes and makes it way back to a House debate. It's sausage making, but important to know. Plus, Michelle Tafoya on Pete Hegseth referring to "our boys" during the strike on Iran last week, Simone Biles, Caitlin Clark and more.

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 Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. PC Pres Corps Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into the explosive fallout from a leaked intelligence report questioning the effectiveness of a recent U.S. military strike on Teran. Hosts Clay and Buck, alongside commentary from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, launch a full-throated defense of the mission and President Donald Trump’s leadership, while sharply criticizing the mainstream media for what they describe as politically motivated reporting. The hour opens with a breakdown of the CNN and New York Times leaks, which suggested the strike may have failed. Buck Sexton, drawing on his intelligence background, explains the complexities of identifying leakers and the dangers of politicizing classified information. The hosts argue that the leak was a deliberate attempt by the “deep state” to undermine President Trump’s credibility and military success. Pete Hegseth’s fiery Pentagon press conference is a focal point, where he accuses the press corps of rooting against Trump and downplaying the bravery and precision of U.S. pilots. The segment includes a viral moment where Hegseth is questioned for not explicitly acknowledging female pilots, prompting a broader discussion on gender politics in the military and media. A former female military pilot calls in to express support for Hegseth, dismissing the controversy as media-driven nitpicking. Why What Happens in NY Matters Everywhere the political upheaval surrounding New York City's mayoral race, highlighting the rise of Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck analyze the implications of Mamdani's nomination, emphasizing how his progressive platform—backed by figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders—signals a broader shift within the Democratic Party. They explore the national ramifications of this political momentum, warning that what happens in New York could soon influence Democrat-led cities across the country. The hosts critique Mamdani's proposals, including an 800% increase in funding for hate crime prevention and his assertion that the criminal justice system is inherently racist. They argue these initiatives are more about left-wing indoctrination than effective governance. The conversation also touches on Mamdani's savvy use of social media and his appeal to younger voters, many of whom are financially supported by their parents and drawn to socialism despite benefiting from capitalism. Local Story with National Reach Eric Adams, the current NYC mayor, is portrayed as a potential moderate counterweight, possibly running as an independent. The show discusses the strategic challenges Adams faces, especially if former Governor Andrew Cuomo enters the race, potentially splitting the anti-Mamdani vote. The hosts also examine the fractured state of the Democratic Party, debating whether it can still suppress far-left candidates or if it will continue to “double down on crazy.” President Donald Trump is referenced as a stabilizing force, particularly in contrast to the chaos the hosts associate with progressive policies. They highlight the effectiveness of Trump-era immigration enforcement, with praise for figures like Tom Homan and Stephen Miller, and criticize sanctuary city policies that undermine federal law enforcement. The hour concludes with a broader cultural critique, linking the rise of socialism to generational entitlement and a rejection of meritocracy. The hosts argue that capitalism’s success has ironically enabled the luxury of anti-capitalist sentiment, particularly among younger, affluent urban voters. Do You Buy This Story? Jamaal Bowman's questionable story about being yelled at by a white dude in Yonkers, NY. Media bias and the decline of CNN’s credibility. Jake Tapper lectures us on the purpose of journalism. Clay and Buck point out that CNN has become a partisan outlet, losing its former status as a trusted news source. They discuss whether the network is salvageable and propose that only a radical overhaul—possibly led by a figure like Megyn Kelly—could restore its relevance. The show also explores internal divisions within the Democratic Party, sparked by Chris Cuomo’s criticism of the party’s far-left wing, including figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders. The hosts argue that the Democratic Party is increasingly dominated by anti-capitalist, radical progressive ideologies, which they claim alienate moderate voters and threaten national unity. Further discussion includes the media’s treatment of conservatives, the legacy of Trumpism, and the broad coalition President Trump has built, including former Democrats like Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. The hosts highlight how Trump’s second term is marked by a more strategic and media-savvy administration.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks about White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explaining to “America Reports'” John Roberts how the mainstream media has distorted the facts of a leaked low confidence intelligence assessment about the success of the strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and the destruction of Iran's nuclear program; Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth making the mainstream media think twice about lying about the destruction of Iran's nuclear program; Donald Trump's fierce response to CNN's Kaitlan Collins about his certainty of the destruction of Iran's nuclear sites; Jamaal Bowman trying to convince Marc Short that being called the n-word is the reason that African Americans have higher rates of cancer and obesity; Tom Homan admitting to Sean Hannity how destructive the potential for terrorist sleeper cell attacks in America really is; Joe Rogan correcting Bernie Sander's facts about Donald Trump's lawsuit against CBS News for their misleading editing of their Kaqmal Harris interview on “60 Minutes”; and much more.

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has spent years spreading doubt about the safety of vaccines and linking them to autism. Dozens of studies have debunked the theory, but it has nevertheless persisted for years. Part of the reason why may be that autism diagnoses have soared over the last few decades.Dr. Allen Frances is psychiatrist who led the task force that created the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which expanded the definition of Autism. Frances says that expanded definition played a role in the increase.Rates of autism have exploded in recent decades. Could the clinical definition of autism itself be partly to blame?

Incumbent NYC Mayor Eric Adams will challenge Mamdani as an Independent in November. 3:20pm- In an interview with Fox News, New York City Mayor Eric Adams called Zohran Mamdani a “snake oil salesman” with “unrealistic” policies. 3:25pm- In his Democratic Primary victory speech, Zohran Mamdani promised to use his potential mayoral powers “to reject Donald Trump's fascism” and “to stop masked ICE agents from deporting our neighbors.” 3:40pm- When asked if Mamdani's win means the Democratic Party will embrace democratic socialism moving forward, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) declined to answer directly. 4:05pm- Dr. Victoria Coates—Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show LIVE from Heritage Foundation studios in Washington D.C. Dr. Coates reacts to a CNN report suggesting that the Trump Administration's targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities only set back Iran several months. The Trump Administration has vociferously denied the claim. During the 2025 NATO Summit, Secretary of State Marco Rubio flatly denied the report—saying the strike resulted in the “total obliteration” of Iran's nuclear facilities. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump cited a letter from the Atomic Energy Commission which stated the “enrichment facility” is now “totally inoperable.” Dr. Coates is the author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win.” 4:30pm- Should we be more concerned about artificial intelligence? A new report suggests that AI has learned to “blackmail” its users in order to achieve its goals. A second article suggests reliance on AI could stifle the intellectual growth of children. 5:00pm- Sen. Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to preview his Energy and Innovation Summit on July 15th, discuss the Trump Administration's targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and the Philadelphia Inquirer's article on his successful first six months in office. 5:20pm- During the House Oversight Committee's hearing on DOGE cuts, Congressman Brandon Gill (R-TX) asked a far-leftist: how do you define “birthing person”? 5:25pm- On Tuesday, the House of Representatives rejected Congressman Al Green's (D-TX) attempt to impeach President Donald Trump over his decision to strike Iranian nuclear facilities. The House voted 344 to 79 to table Green's resolution. 5:30pm- During the 2025 NATO Summit, President Donald Trump was asked about providing the Patriot Missile System to Ukraine. He said, “we're going to see if we can make some available.” 5:40pm- During a recent flight, a passenger sitting behind Matt Gaetz caught the former Congressmen sending text messages to his mom. 6:00pm- Tom Azelby in for Rich!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- Dr. Victoria Coates—Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show LIVE from Heritage Foundation studios in Washington D.C. Dr. Coates reacts to a CNN report suggesting that the Trump Administration's targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities only set back Iran several months. The Trump Administration has vociferously denied the claim. During the 2025 NATO Summit, Secretary of State Marco Rubio flatly denied the report—saying the strike resulted in the “total obliteration” of Iran's nuclear facilities. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump cited a letter from the Atomic Energy Commission which stated the “enrichment facility” is now “totally inoperable.” Dr. Coates is the author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win.” 4:30pm- Should we be more concerned about artificial intelligence?

The grandchildren Rowen, Jameson, and Wren keep Sean and Misty busy. Sean Hagerty has combined over 25+ years of service in the Special Operations community and deep-rooted research instincts from years of academic pursuits in history to tell this story. This story was written mostly in the plush seats of the daily Tackett's Mill/Pentagon commuter bus and the shaky bucket seats of the Franconia Springfield/Largo blue metro line. However, a few chapters were written while traveling for work, taking advantage of uninterrupted thoughts on an airliner. One chapter was even written during an evening break while on a business trip aboard the USS Nimitz CVN 68 aircraft carrier out in the Pacific Ocean. Cabal all came together during evening edits in his home shared with Misty, in Lakeridge, Virginia. Jones Point was the first novel in the Dane Cooper series. Cabal is the second. The Department of Defense, Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review has cleared the publication of both novels. Review was required due to Sean's past and current security clearance. Jones Point was published by Blue Handle Publishing on April 15th, 2024. Cabal will be released June 6th, 2025..
