900K Independents Blocked Out. Spencer Pratt is Out in LA. Trump Cries Foul. America 250 is Bigger Than Trump.  Trump showed up at Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden and got booed loud enough that he had to lie about it on the tarmac. Hours later, news broke that an Iranian drone shot down a US Army Apache gunship off the coast of Oman — the pilots rescued, in a first-of-its-kind operation, by an American sea drone. And while the MAGA machine drags the NBA, the UFC, and America 250 into its political circus, four states are running primaries today that disenfranchise nearly a million independent voters, including roughly 450,000 independent veterans in Nevada alone. Paul Rieckhoff is solo on the mic for episode 545, delivering the kind of no-BS morning briefing the cable nets won't. This one moves fast and hits hard: drone warfare as the new normal in Iran and Ukraine, the difference between a closed primary, an open party primary, and the all-candidate open primary that actually respects independents, the Graham Plattner problem in Maine, Trump previewing his attack on November's election results, and a French flyover at the Statue of Liberty that's a reminder America 250 doesn't belong to Trump. If you're tired of partisans weaponizing every NBA scuffle and every foreign policy crisis, this is the briefing that meets the moment — righteous anger, rigorous analysis, and a path forward. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Make the switch to Noble mobile and save money the easy way. -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

The two crew members of a US army helicopter that crashed near the Strait of Hormuz were rescued by an American sea drone, say US officials. It was the first such operation carried out by US forces, the officials added.Also on the programme: Iran's ticket allocation for its team's World Cup games in the US is cancelled; and the trial opens in Paris over a Europe-wide scheme to steal Russian literary classics.(Photo: AH-64 Apache helicopters are American-made twin-turboshaft attack aircraft Credit: Getty Images)

US President Donald Trump is vowing retaliation, after an American helicopter was shot down in the Strait of Hormuz, something he's blaming on Iran. Correspondent Kate Fisher spoke to Morning Report from Washington DC.

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman pull back the curtain on a weekend edition that tackles a rapidly shifting geopolitical landscape. The guys break down unsettling new details from the Congressional Research Service regarding US aircraft losses in Iran. The illusion of a cease-fire is crumbling as intelligence reports reveal an empowered adversary rearming in plain sight. With the Strait of Hormuz facing a permanent toll system and cyber threats looming over the domestic grid, the crisis is hitting a dangerous new phase. Later, they examine the sudden passing of former Representative Barney Frank and the complex, frustrating legacy left behind by his final public comments.

Send us Fan MailPeaches is back with the May 20 Daily Drop, and this one's got everything: shrinking bonuses, carrier problems, Iranian escalation, NATO chaos, and the Pentagon throwing half a billion dollars at counter-drone tech.The United States Army keeps pushing force transformation while Europe braces for more U.S. troop withdrawals. Poland is openly stressing about losing American presence—and the billions that come with it. Meanwhile the United States Navy says the plumbing drama aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford was exaggerated, while the new Boeing MQ-25 Stingray finally moves toward deployment. Then the United States Air Force cuts reenlistment bonuses, grounds the entire Northrop T-38 Talon fleet after another crash, and keeps testing rapidly deployable special operations aircraft built for the next fight.Overseas? Iran is setting up control over the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. intelligence says mines are already in place, NATO accidentally shot down a Ukrainian drone over Estonia, and everybody keeps inching closer to a larger regional problem.Bottom line: the future battlefield is moving faster than the bureaucracy trying to manage it.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Tasty Gains & OTS Updates 02:00 Las Vegas OTS? 03:00 More U.S. Troops Leaving Europe 05:00 Why Poland Wants Americans to Stay 07:00 Army Transformation Hits Resistance 09:00 Legacy Equipment vs Modern Warfare 11:00 USS Ford Plumbing Drama 13:00 Boeing MQ-25 Stingray Cleared for Deployment 15:00 Super Hornets Landing on Iwo Jima 17:00 Air Force Slashes Reenlistment Bonuses 21:00 Why Bonuses Actually Disappear 24:00 Northrop T-38 Talon Fleet Grounded 26:00 AFSOC's Deployable Skyraider Concept 29:00 Pentagon Drops $500M on Counter-Drone Systems 31:00 Pete Hegseth Reviews Military Legal System 33:00 Donald Trump Eyes Iran Again 35:00 Taiwan Becomes a Negotiating Chip 37:00 Iran Tightens Grip on Hormuz 39:00 NATO Shoots Down Ukrainian Drone 41:00 U.S. Finds Mines in the Strait 43:00 Final Thoughts

In this episode, Host Rick Crandall talks with Tom, a fighter pilot, squadron commander, and Vietnam War POW.

The rescue of the crew of DUDE 44, an F-15E Strike Eagle shot down over Iran, is one of the most complex and dangerous combat search and rescue (CSAR) operations in modern warfare. Retired USAF Colonel and Special Operations pilot Buck Walker breaks down how it happened – from the shootdown to the high-risk mission that brought the crew home. This is how CSAR really works.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Ukraine's president says forces have been helping Middle Eastern countries against Iran.

If you missed the dramatic details behind one of the boldest rescue missions in recent history — a story that combines daring, deception, and unwavering loyalty in the face of Iran's turbulence – we've got you covered. Imagine a rescue so secretive that Iran thought they had the location of a downed airman, only to […]

Today's Headlines: Trump spent Easter Sunday posting threats on social media that Tuesday would be "power plant day and bridge day" in Iran, told Axios he's in "deep negotiations" but will blow up "everything over there" if no deal is reached, skipped Easter Mass and the Easter Egg Roll, and cryptically posted "TUESDAY 8PM EASTERN.” Meanwhile, two U.S. fighter jets were struck by Iranian fire on Friday, with one pilot rescued from a mountain crevice in Iran in a genuinely dramatic search and rescue operation. Pope Leo used his first Easter Mass to tell world leaders to choose dialogue over domination. Nobody in this administration was listening. March's jobs report came in surprisingly strong — 178,000 jobs added versus a forecast of 59,000, reversing February's loss of 133,000 — with unemployment ticking down to 4.3%. A federal judge upheld his own decision blocking the DOJ's subpoena of Fed Chair Jerome Powell, again ruling the investigation is politically motivated. NASA's Artemis II flew by the moon and will be headed home, touching down Friday near San Diego — the photos are genuinely worth looking up. Tiger Woods was arrested on a DUI charge in Florida after flipping his SUV, and told the arresting deputy he had "just been talking to the president" — the first known attempt at "do you know who my president is." Kanye West sold out two nights at SoFi Stadium, but pressure is mounting to pull him from headlining London's Wireless Festival in July after his "Heil Hitler" era last year. Pepsi already pulled its sponsorship. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the booking "deeply concerning."

Jim Geraghty is back! Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the jaw-dropping success of the U.S. military in rescuing two Americans shot down over Iran, the far-left bias pushed in an AP government textbook, and the eyebrow-raising parenting confessions from Jennifer Siebel Newsom, wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom. Plus, they welcome the return of Savannah Guthrie to NBC's Today show.First, they marvel at the U.S. military's unwavering commitment to leaving no man behind and highlight the remarkable coordination between armed forces and the intelligence community to extract the American flight crew before Iranian forces could capture them. Next, they react to an X post from New York Post and Fox News columnist Karol Markowitz, who spotlights a controversial political spectrum chart from an AP high school government textbook. The graphic places major political figures on axes of authoritarianism vs. libertarianism and economic left vs. right. The results are insane. Is your child being taught this too?Then, they dive into comments from California "First Partner" Jennifer Siebel Newsom, who revealed that she had her sons play with dolls and she makes sure the hero is a female in every story she reads to her kids. Jim and Greg reveal what they think of this parenting advice and what impact this could have on Gavin Newsom's presidential ambitions.Finally, they're glad to see Savannah Guthrie return to the Today show after more than two month of a nightmare that's still unresolved.Please visit our great sponsors:Stop putting off those doctors' appointments and visit https://Zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top-rated doctor today.Better plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingtrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.New episodes every weekday. 

Donald Trump claims we have "total air superiority" over Iran. Pete Hegseth calls our military operations "flawless." But the reality is an F-15 and an A-10 Warthog smoking in the Iranian desert on Friday. How did two of our most advanced jets get swatted out of the sky by a "decimated" enemy? Welcome to The Mop-Up. While Pete Hegseth is busy holding Protestant-only prayer services at the Pentagon and asking for "divine wrath," the actual US military is burning through 25% of our Tomahawk missile stockpile in just five weeks. It takes two years to restock. Do the math. We aren't just losing the hardware; we're losing the moral high ground. US troops are being pulled off airbases and blended into civilian populations — a move that, by any other name, is using human shields. Meanwhile, Trump is proposing a $1.5 trillion military budget to build "Trump Class Battle Ships" while gutting FEMA, education, and disease research. The Pope is calling for a ceasefire. Our allies in Europe and Japan are cutting their own deals with Tehran. We are isolated, overextended, and led by a man who thinks prayer is a substitute for a flight plan. In this episode: • The F-15 and A-10 Takedowns – What really happened in the skies over Iran. • Stockpile Collapse – Why we're running out of Tomahawks faster than we can build them. • Human Shields – The Pentagon's new strategy of embedding troops in civilian centers. • The $1.5T Grift – Who loses their social safety net to pay for "Trump Class Battle Ships." • International Breakaway – Why the world is leaving Washington behind. Key Figures: Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump, Seth Moulton, Pope Leo, Archbishop Timothy Broglio, Marco Rubio, Susan Collins, Pastor Doug Wilson, Paula White-Cain.

Iran has just shot down a U.S. F-15 fighter jet—and of course, the mainstream media is bending over backwards to word it like the plane just 'crashed' all by itself. Meanwhile, Iran also hit an Amazon cloud data center in Bahrain, and nobody wants to talk about how Amazon is a massive Pentagon contractor. Oh, and Trump just fired Pam Bondi as Attorney General because apparently even her level of ass-kissing wasn't enough for him. All that and more!

It's Easter Monday, April 6th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus India further restricts funding of foreign non-governmental organizations India's Christian community complains that federal amendments to the law on foreign funding give the government excessive power over organizations tied to minority religions like Christianity, reports International Christian Concern. They termed the amendments as “draconian” and “constitutionally suspect.” The Foreign Contribution Regulation Act is the channel through which all non-governmental organizations involved in charitable works receive foreign funding in the country. A key and contentious feature of the 2026 amendment is the creation of a “Designated Authority,” notified by the federal government, which will take provisional control of foreign contributions and assets in cases of cancellation, surrender, or cessation of registration. This control extends even to assets that are only partly funded through foreign contributions. The authority is empowered to supervise, manage, and maintain these assets. Unbelievably, the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has, during the past decade, revoked or suspended the FCRA registrations of more than 20,000 organizations. Fidel Castro's daughter: It's time for Cuban regime change Alina Fernández Revuelta, daughter of former Cuban leader Fidel Castro, has strongly criticized the communist regime her father launched in 1959, stating that Cuba is overdue for a new government, reports The Epoch Times. She fled Havana in 1993 at the age of 37 and settled in Miami, living a modest life much like that of other Cuban exiles. Born in 1956, Revuelta grew up in post‑revolution Havana, as part of the privileged revolutionary elite. Yet from a young age, she became aware of the realities of communism and later emerged as one of the most outspoken critics of her father's rule, which she described as oppressive. In an exclusive interview with The Epoch Times, she said, “For me, it's been time for a regime change since the late ‘80s. At the time Fidel Castro died, we were all thinking [his regime] had come to an end, because it was a very personalized and paternalist ... narcissistic government. ... But it survived.” Revuelta is the daughter of Fidel Castro and Havana socialite Natalia Revuelta, who had an affair in the mid-1950s while both were married to other people. She grew up with her mother and stepfather, and did not learn that Castro was her biological father until age 10. U.S. fighter jet shot down over Iran On April 3rd, a U.S. F-15 fighter jet was reportedly shot down over southern Iran, with Iranian state media claiming the regime downed the aircraft, reports One America News. The incident prompted search and rescue missions for the aircraft's two-person crew. Tehran's state media shared images of debris from the crash on Friday. According to Israeli officials, the United States dispatched search teams to the crash area, and so far, the teams have succeeded in rescuing one crew member, with the search for the second ongoing, reports The Epoch Times. The semi-official Tasnim News Agency, citing an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps statement, said U.S. forces were seen conducting a search operation in the area using Black Hawk helicopters and a C-130 Hercules aircraft. The incident comes amid mounting tensions as Trump's ultimatum for Iran to agree to a peace deal approaches an April 6 deadline, with talks showing little sign of progress. Tennessee legislature passes bill to stop mail-order Abortion Kill Pill The Tennessee General Assembly has passed legislation that would hold out-of-state distributors of Abortion Kill Pills accountable when the drugs are mailed into the state and result in the death of a preborn child, reports LifeNews.com. The goal of the bill is to stop mail-order Abortion Kill Pills that are killing thousands of babies and undermining the pro-life law Tennessee approved to protect unborn children from abortions. House Bill 5 creates a civil cause of action allowing certain family members, including the baby's mother, to file a wrongful death lawsuit against those who send abortion-inducing drugs into Tennessee. It provides for statutory damages of at least $1 million, if the plaintiff proves by a preponderance of the evidence, that the drugs caused the death of her preborn child. The bill, sponsored by GOP Rep. Gino Bulso, passed both the House and Senate and now heads to the desk of Tennessee Republican Governor Bill Lee for his signature. You can thank Rep. Bulso by calling (615) 741-6808 or sending him a one-sentence note to Rep. Gino Bulso, 425 Rep. John Lewis Way N. Suite 520, Cordell Hull Bldg., Nashville, TN 37243. President Trump unapologetic about Christian message In an address at the Oval Office on Good Friday, President Trump was unapologetic about the Christian message. TRUMP: “On Good Friday, the Son of God was nailed to the cross, crucified, and He died for all of us. It was a day of darkness, but it wasn't the end by any means. It was not the end. “On Easter Sunday, the stone was rolled away and the grave was empty. Christians everywhere rejoiced, and we continue to rejoice. Easter is one of the incredible days. It was the miracle in all of history, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It was one of the great, it was the great miracle, I guess, right? (clapping) “With Christ, not one thing can separate humanity from the powers of God's everlasting love.” Romans 8:38-39 says, “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Martyrdoms of British Pilgrims Henry Barrow and John Greenwood And finally, when Queen Mary I assumed the throne in England in 1553, she made the Catholic Church in England and Wales once again to be the state religion. In her bloody zealousness to imprison and execute Protestants, she became known as Bloody Mary, after whom a spicy drink with tomato juice and vodka is named today. Early in 1586, Henry Barrow was converted to Christianity by a Puritan sermon in a church he had been walking past. Eighteen months later, he attempted to write a rebuttal of one of Robert Browne's separatist works, but instead was converted by it. Subsequently, Barrow became close friends with John Greenwood, a Separatist leader. Barrow and Greenwood led the London Underground Church, the illegal Brownist congregation, which had met in inns and private houses since the late 1560s during Bloody Mary's reign which ended in 1558. It began with 20 people and grew to 200.  Archbishop of Canterbury John Whitgift of the Church of England and high-ranking state officials ordered the executions of Henry Barrow and John Greeenwood under the 1592 Seditious Sectaries Act which criminalized any Brit's refusal to attend the Church of England. They were hung in London on April 6, 1593. Matthew 10:28 says, “Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” William Bradford, Governor of the Plymouth Plantation in Massachusetts, cited that London underground church as the first that “professed and practiced the cause” of the Pilgrim Fathers.

(This is a developing story) First, an F-15 fighter jet was shot down over Iran, and while one of the crew members was rescued, an urgent search for the second is underway. Meantime, a second rescue plane was also struck, but the pilot was able to fly out of Iranian territory and eject safely in Kuwait. Also, several news outlets are reporting two black hawk helicopters were able to safely land after taking fire in search and rescue operations with several crew members injured. All of this as Iran mocks American rhetoric on “regime change” as the desperate search continues for our U.S. service member missing in Iran. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us Fan MailPeaches isn't easing you into this one—because there's no soft way to say it.A F-15 Strike Eagle is down over Iran. CSAR is actively happening.

Trump Wants $1.5T for Defense. Is Hegseth Running for President? SERE Training 101. Pickles the Dog for President? Final Four Friday! The ultimate split-screen moment in American history. While the world watched in awe as the Artemis crew headed toward the moon—representing the pinnacle of human achievement and international cooperation—the reality of global conflict hit home. In this urgent Friday blitz, host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the breaking news of a U.S. F-15E Strike Eagle being shot down over Iran. With one crew member rescued and another's status uncertain, we examine the tactical reality of "boots on the ground" in a conflict that continues to escalate despite a lack of public support. Joining the conversation is a true American hero, NASA Astronaut and Navy Veteran Commander Scott Kelly. Drawing on his experience as an F-14 pilot and his time commanding the International Space Station, Kelly provides an insider's perspective on the SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape) protocols our downed aviators are facing right now. We also dive deep into the Artemis mission, the firing of Army General Randy George by Pete Hegseth, and why independent leadership is the only way to navigate a world that feels closer to World War III than ever before.
