    Insider Blows Lid Off Media Collapse Under Trump

    Ken Harbaugh welcomes Scott MacFarlane — a 25-year veteran of legacy media who walked away from CBS to join MeidasTouch — to discuss the collapse of institutional journalism, what's driving serious reporters out of the newsrooms they built their careers in, and what independent media can offer that legacy outlets no longer can.

    Combat Vets Sound Alarm on ICE at Military Base

    Ken Harbaugh examines the Marine Corps' official notice announcing the stationing of ICE agents at Parris Island to screen the families of graduating recruits — and what it reveals about an administration willing to target immigrant military families in the name of enforcement theater. Then, Army veteran and Veterans Fighting Fascism founder Kris Goldsmith joins to break down why this story hit a nerve, and what it means for the troops this administration claims to support.

    Trump Terrified of Press as War goes Sideways

    Ken Harbaugh examines the Trump administration's unprecedented information blackout surrounding the U.S.-Iran war, from Pete Hegseth's systematic dismantling of Pentagon press access to the absence of any coherent military strategy — and what it means when a government keeps its own people in the dark during wartime. He's joined by Iraq war combat veteran and Veterans Fighting Fascism founder Kris Goldsmith.

    Trump Fatal Iran Error Exposed by Gulf Ops Commander

    For weeks, Iran has been strangling the Strait of Hormuz, choking off global oil supplies and sending gas prices skyrocketing. Now Yemen's Houthi rebels have opened a second front — and with it, a second chokepoint: the Bab al-Mandab Strait. That's 15% of global maritime trade. 30% of container ship traffic. And the only remaining exit for Gulf energy exports. Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones — who commanded U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf— breaks down why the Houthi entry into this war could be more economically devastating than the Strait of Hormuz crisis alone.

    Trump's 'Board of Peace' Collapses Instantly as War Rages

    Six weeks ago, Donald Trump stood in Davos and announced a new international organization he called the "Board of Peace" — declaring it would be "the most consequential international body in history." He signed the charter. He posed for photos. He charged countries $1 billion for a permanent seat at the table...then he launched a war. Commander Bobby Jones breaks down exactly who signed onto Trump's Board of Peace, what they were promised, and where those countries find themselves now.
