    Bombing Tonight — Wait, Never Mind. Trump Cancels Iran Strike and Announces a Deal in the Same Afternoon. Real This Time? Pulte DNI Dead, Ja
    Jun 11 2026
    This morning the President said bigger bombing of Iran was happening tonight. This afternoon he cancelled it and announced a deal has been reached. The Strait of Hormuz could be open by the weekend if a formal agreement is signed as promised. We have heard similar things before so today we ask the honest question — is this actually the real deal or are we about to watch another announcement evaporate? Bill Pulte's DNI nomination is finished — killed by pushback from both parties who questioned his qualifications. The President has now nominated Jay Powell the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York to lead American intelligence instead. Big day. Massive story. No spin.

  • WSJ Bombshell — Trump Called Downed Apache No Big Deal and Had to Be Convinced to Respond. Inflation Jumps to 4.2%, Wages Fall Behind & Bide

    WSJ Bombshell — Trump Called Downed Apache No Big Deal and Had to Be Convinced to Respond. Inflation Jumps to 4.2%, Wages Fall Behind & Bide
    Jun 10 2026
    The Wall Street Journal is reporting the President called our downed Apache no big deal and had to be talked into a kinetic military response. He still thinks ceasefire talks are somehow continuing at the same time. Today we ask what that says about American resolve and what our adversaries are hearing. Inflation just hit 4.2 percent — the highest in three years — driven by oil and gas from the Iran conflict while wages fall further behind. American families are getting squeezed from every direction. And Susan Rice along with other Biden administration veterans reportedly called Xavier Becerra an idiot and worse. Democrats destroying Democrats — nothing new but always entertaining. Big show today.

  • American Apache Shot Down — Crew Saved But Trump Says Must Respond. Is the Military Option Finally Here? Oil Reserves Running Low, Spike Com

    American Apache Shot Down — Crew Saved But Trump Says Must Respond. Is the Military Option Finally Here? Oil Reserves Running Low, Spike Com
    Jun 9 2026
    An American Apache helicopter was shot down and both crew members were rescued alive — thank God. But the President said we must respond and those three words may have just opened the military door he has been holding shut for months. Is this the moment the Iran conflict escalates decisively? Meanwhile oil and gas reserves are being drawn down fast and a significant price spike may be closer than anyone is admitting publicly. And in Maine on Tuesday Democrats are asking themselves a genuinely hard question — do you vote for Graham Platner knowing his checkered past because the politics demand it or do you vote your conscience and live with the consequences? Character versus strategy. Maine decides Tuesday.

    Iran and Israel Trading Rockets, Trump's Advisors Say Finish the Regime But He Won't Move, California's Slow Count Is Killing Voter Trust &
    Jun 8 2026
    Iran and Israel are firing rockets and drones at each other right now and the Strait of Hormuz is still blocked. The President's advisors are telling him directly — use the military and finish the regime because no deal with these people will ever stick. The President is not listening. California's vote counting is so slow that the President and millions of voters think something is wrong — and when voters lose trust in counting they lose trust in democracy itself. California needs to understand that. And tonight Trump is at the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden — one of the most complex presidential security operations in recent memory given three previous assassination attempts. Big show today.

  • Trump's Intelligence Hitman — Pulte Hired to Fire and Dig Into 2020 Election Files, Maine's Mud War Heats Up Before Tuesday's Primary & Iran

    Trump's Intelligence Hitman — Pulte Hired to Fire and Dig Into 2020 Election Files, Maine's Mud War Heats Up Before Tuesday's Primary & Iran
    Jun 5 2026
    Trump told the Wall Street Journal exactly why he hired Bill Pulte to run American intelligence — fire a lot of people and dig into 2020 election files. No ambiguity. No reading between the lines. We take the President at his word today and examine what that means for the agencies keeping America safe. Maine's primary is Tuesday and the opposition research on Graham Platner is hitting hard. Between Platner and Paxton of Texas we ask whether the Senate is becoming a club where a checkered past is basically a membership requirement. And the Iran expert community is now saying clearly and collectively — there is no deal to be made with this regime. So what exactly is the plan? All of it today.

  • California Still Can't Count Votes on Election Night. Four Republicans Break With Trump on Iran War Powers. John Bolton Just Pleaded Guilty.

    California Still Can't Count Votes on Election Night. Four Republicans Break With Trump on Iran War Powers. John Bolton Just Pleaded Guilty.
    Jun 4 2026
    California used to have election results by the eleven o'clock news just like every other state. Now it takes days and possibly months and they think they are doing a great job. We explain what broke and why it matters for democratic trust. Four House Republicans voted for the War Powers Act to end the Iran war — a rare and notable break from Trump that now heads to the Senate for a showdown. And John Bolton walked into court today and pleaded guilty to one of the eighteen classified document counts against him. Is the former National Security Advisor actually going to prison? Big stories today and we are not sugarcoating any of them.

    Pelley Bit the CBS Hand That Fed Him and Got Fired. A Republican Is Leading California's Governor Race — Yes Really. And Nobody Wants Bill P
    Jun 3 2026
    Scott Pelley spent months fighting his CBS bosses on his own broadcast and learned the oldest lesson in professional life the hardest possible way — do not bite the hand that feeds you. CBS fired him. Meanwhile a Republican is in first place in the California governor's race and yes we checked the calendar and yes this is real. The years of homelessness, crime, wildfires, and sky high gas prices under Democratic rule have apparently finally moved the needle in the nation's biggest blue state. And Bill Pulte — the President's pick to replace Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence — is drawing skepticism from virtually every direction. Republicans are quiet. Democrats are loud. The intelligence community is concerned. Is this really the person to lead seventeen spy agencies in the most dangerous intelligence environment in a generation?

  • Iran Wants Israel to Stop Defending Itself Before Any Talks — You Cannot Make This Up. Slush Fund Paused, Six Primaries Today & Republicans

    Iran Wants Israel to Stop Defending Itself Before Any Talks — You Cannot Make This Up. Slush Fund Paused, Six Primaries Today & Republicans
    Jun 2 2026
    Iran's condition for coming back to the negotiating table is that Israel stops defending itself from Hezbollah. Not that Hezbollah stops attacking. Israel stops defending. Seriously. We break down what that demand actually tells us about Iran's real intentions. The $1.776 billion weaponization compensation fund has been paused after Congress from both parties pushed back hard. Six states vote today and the California story is the one to watch — Republicans are running real candidates for Governor and for Mayor of Los Angeles and the political environment created by years of Democratic failure on homelessness, crime, and wildfires has made both races genuinely competitive. California may not be turning red but it is turning something. All of it today.
