    04-10-26 Part Two - The Democratic Dilusion

    In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the left continues to favor Sharia law in support of Iran despite President Trump's plan to inialate the evil regime. Also the Supreme Court on Thursday rejected a self-described "progressive" candidate’s bid to enter Ohio’s Republican primary, leaving in place a decision by state election officials to disqualify him for misrepresenting his party affiliation. Samuel Ronan, a former Democratic state and national candidate, attempted to run as a Republican in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District against GOP incumbent Rep. Mike Carey. To do so, he signed a declaration of candidacy — under penalty of election falsification — swearing he was a member of the Republican Party. And NATO’s chief signaled Thursday that European allies may move to help secure the Strait of Hormuz following talks with President Trump — even as the White House declared the alliance had already "failed" and was not being asked to assist. Secretary-General Mark Rutte, speaking at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute in Washington a day after meeting Trump at the White House, pointed to a potential coalition effort among allied nations to keep the critical waterway open.

    04-08-26 Part Two - One Last Liberal Patriot

    In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we learn of The Liberal Patriot closing their doors due to lack of donations from the Democratic base. Ruy Teixeira's final post referenced the Democrats’ catastrophic defeat in the 2024 election and the obvious need for serious party-wide change, “Is Our Democrats Learning?” At the time, he saw little evidence that Democratic learning was, in fact, taking place. Posing this question again in early spring 2026, Democrats continue not to learn. If anything, they are increasingly adamant that such learning is not even necessary. - Exerpt from The Liberal Patriot, March 26, 2026. Also a NY Post article on technology called "the ghost murmur" the CIA used to locate the downed military service member shot down over Iran last week and the ceasefire's positive forecast for global and US stocks on today's trading.
