    Trump Whistleblower Unloads on New Global Crisis

    Ken Harbaugh continues his conversation with Lt. Col. Alex Vindman, examining how Trump's transactional approach to foreign policy — from Hormuz tolls to Venezuelan oil — has eroded America's global standing and rules-based international order. Vindman, now running for U.S. Senate in Florida, discusses the dangers of politicized national security under a Republican Party defined by fealty to a single man.

    Vets Confront Trump over Fake Patriotism

    In this week's episode of Meidas Defense, Hell Cats co-hosts Maura Sullivan and Rebecca Bennett — a Marine Corps officer and a Navy helicopter pilot — sit down after the Fourth of July to ask what patriotism actually means in America right now. From Trump's handling of NATO and the war in Ukraine, to the Supreme Court's latest ruling on guns, to what it takes to love a country while pushing it to be better, the two veterans break down why the people who actually wore the uniform tend to find common ground across the aisle far faster than others. Along the way: Maura reading the Declaration of Independence with her Marines in Iraq, Rebecca squawking transponder code 1776 on a deployed Fourth of July, and the bipartisan veterans' caucus that washed the Vietnam Wall together over Memorial Day — and gave them real hope that country can still come before party.

    Bombshell Report Blows the Roof Off Trump Grift

    Ken Harbaugh breaks down a bombshell Reuters report showing Trump and his sons funneled nearly $2 billion in crypto gains — almost exactly what retail investors lost — straight into stocks, including companies with direct business before his administration. Then Ken sits down with retired Army Colonel Alex Vindman, the whistleblower behind Trump's first impeachment, now running for U.S. Senate in Florida, for part one of a wide-ranging conversation on corruption, accountability, and the stakes of 2026.

    Navy Commander Confronts Hegseth over Iran Disaster

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's handling of the Iran war is falling apart under scrutiny and we're breaking down exactly how. Since the war began on February 28, 2026, Hegseth has gutted civilian-harm oversight, presided over a school strike that killed more than 150 people with zero accountability months later, contradicted his own claims about Iran's nuclear program in front of Congress, and been publicly contradicted by his own troops after downplaying an attack on a U.S. base. Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones lays out the receipts on which the SECDEF should be judged. Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

    Trump Implodes at NATO Summit

    Ken Harbaugh breaks down Trump's chaotic performance at the NATO Summit in Ankara — from confusing Zelensky for Putin to threatening Greenland while attacking allies who refused to back a disastrous war with Iran. He then talks with retired Army Brigadier General Leela Gray, who is challenging Anna Paulina Luna in Florida, about the damage Trump and Hegseth are doing to the military.

    I've seen enough...

    Ken Harbaugh argues that Graham Platner never should have made it this far — the sexual assault accusations against him are credible, and it's long past time for him to leave the Maine Senate race. He's joined by veteran and anti-extremism researcher Kris Goldsmith to unpack the red flags they saw well before this week's news.

    US Navy Pilots Rebuke Trump

    A US Air Force major, Jason Watson, was arrested at the US Capitol after delivering a speech calling for the impeachment and removal of President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance. He had spoken at a Removal Coalition press conference while in uniform and identifying himself as an active-duty service member, an event also attended by Democratic Rep. Al Green. Capitol Police confirmed the arrest, citing rules that prohibit public demonstrations on the House steps unless accompanied by a member of Congress. Anthony Davis reports.

    Americans Rebuke Trump on 250th Anniversary

    Ken Harbaugh marks a July 4th shadowed by a hollowed-out MAGA spectacle on the National Mall, arguing that real patriotism is happening far from the president—in backyards and public squares across the country. He sits down with Governor Wes Moore to unpack what it truly means to love America: not blind celebration of what it is, but a commitment to what it can still become.
