On today’s episode, Chris Stigall breaks down the latest developments surrounding Operation Epic Fury as Secretary of War Pete Hegseth reaffirmed the administration’s position that the Iranian regime must face total defeat or surrender. Stigall examines what that statement signals about America’s long-term strategy in the region and whether the conflict is likely to escalate further.

Stigall also discusses the shakeup at the Department of Homeland Security, with reports that Kristi Noem is being replaced by Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin, and what the move could mean for border policy and national security.

Meanwhile, new attention is turning to explosive allegations of taxpayer fraud tied to Democrats in Minnesota, and House Majority Whip Tom Emmer joins the show to outline what he says investigators are uncovering and why the scandal deserves far more national scrutiny.

RNC Chairman Joe Gruters also joins Stigall to discuss the increasingly competitive Texas Senate primary and the challenge Republicans face trying to keep unity inside the GOP tent while defending their majority heading into the fall elections.

The show also includes a preview of a conversation with television icon Kathie Lee Gifford, discussing her new book Nero & Paul. Today’s podcast features a short clip, with the full interview dropping tomorrow in a special episode.

Plus, Stigall briefly revisits Monday’s Supreme Court decision on parental notification policies in California schools, which continues to reverberate through the national debate over parental rights in education.
