Podcasters Joe Rogan and Theo Von, who both hosted President Trump during the 2024 election, have strongly criticized military action in Iran. Appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience, comedian Theo Von pontificated on the military operation and its eventual outcome. “What do you think is gonna happen?” Von asked Rogan. “Do you think we’re gonna be OK?” “I hope so, of course. I don’t know,” Rogan responded. “I’m confused. I can’t believe we went into this war. When we started bombing Iran, I was like, ‘This can’t be true.’” Both Rogan and Von seemed to reject the tactics made to…

During this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) applauded President Donald Trump for the U.S. military’s progress in what he described as “systemically” eliminating the threat Iran posed to Americans and our allies. “What does it tell you about where we are with the capabilities of Iran’s missile launching, their air defenses, the fact that they do still have some tools in their belt?” host Shannon Bream asked. McCormick replied, “Well, I think you really have to step back. Five presidents have essentially said that we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon and that Iran…

Former House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) said on Breitbart News Saturday that a Trump administration proposal would allow Americans to invest in assets through their 401(k)s that were previously only available to the rich. The Trump Department of Labor has moved forward with a proposal that would allow 401(k) retirement plans to more easily include alternative assets such as cryptocurrency, real estate, and private market assets. Hensarling told Breitbart News Saturday host Matthew Boyle that the proposal would democratize 401(k)s to give Americans more options to invest in. Most retirement plans typically have limited broad-basket investment options such as…

Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) revealed that he does not believe U.S. military ground troops will be “necessary” in order to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, as Operation Epic Fury continues in Iran. During an interview on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, Turner was asked by host George Stephanopoulos if it was realistic to think that the Strait of Hormuz would reopen “naturally” or if it would take “ground troops.” “In any conflict, certainly, Iran is going to have some things that they’re going to be able to do, during the conflict — but, if you don’t undertake the conflict, if you…

The wording is familiar. The urgency is always absolute. The implication is unmistakable: Israel is not choosing war. It is forced into it. For many, the claim is inherently contradictory. How can a state initiate war – and in Gaza’s case, sustain a genocide – while insisting that it is merely defending itself from annihilation? Yet within Israeli political discourse, and across much of Western media, this contradiction is rarely interrogated. It is normalized. That normalization is not incidental. It is foundational. Dimona is not an ordinary town. It lies adjacent to the Negev Nuclear Research Center, widely understood to…

During Saturday’s broadcast of FNC’s “Life, Liberty & Levin,” Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said that he had no regrets breaking from most Democrats on backing Israel and U.S. policy that supports the Jewish state. He described his support to host Mark Levin as “moral clarity,” regardless of the politics behind it. “We’re here with Senator John Fetterman,” Levin said. “This is my first interview with the senator, and he’s a very nice man. We spoke briefly, and I appreciate you coming, Senator. I’m from Pennsylvania. I love Pennsylvania. It’s a great state, and you’re kind of the person — the…

The daughter of one of the Iranian regime’s most powerful officials has left the United States and has been barred from reentering after being fired from the medical faculty at Atlanta, Georgia’s Emory University earlier this year. Dr. Fatemeh Ardeshir-Larijani, whose father, Ali Larijani, served as secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council before being killed in a U.S. airstrike, was removed from her post as an assistant professor at the university in January following a public backlash triggered by the brutal regime’s mass murder of protestors, the California Post reported at the time. “She and her husband, Seyed Kalantar…

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani made a Good Friday statement about sacrifice, fasting, and faith, but did not mention Jesus Christ by name, while Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) promoted legislation calling for the American flag to be flown at half-staff in recognition of Christ’s crucifixion. Mamdani wrote on X: Today, on Good Friday, we mark a day of sacrifice. Some New Yorkers will abstain from eating; others will spend hours without speaking. Faith, the Bible tells us, is belief in the things unseen. That belief is what will guide so many of our neighbors in solemn reflection and reverence.…
