Episode description

Rich is joined by USAF Brigadier General (Ret.) Blaine Holt—Air Force veteran, former NATO Deputy, C-17 commander, tech entrepreneur, and senior contributor—to discuss the upcoming Trump-Putin meeting and whether it could lead to peace in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.

Next, Chuck DeVore, Chief National Initiatives Officer at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, former California State Assemblyman, and California Army National Guardsman during the LA Riots, joins the conversation to examine Trump’s plan to deploy the National Guard in Washington, DC, to combat crime and implement long-term cleanup efforts—and what this could mean for the future of the nation’s capital.

Finally, Managing Editor of NewsBusters, Curtis Houck, weighs in on the recent cancellations of major media hosts Howard Stern and Stephen Colbert, exploring whether Trump has played a role in these decisions.
