09-29-26 Part One - Russian Cannon Fodder

from Red Eye Radio Hosted by Cumulus Podcast Network

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Russia is recruiting frontline troops for its war against Ukraine any way it can, and has duped at least 18 US men into fighting. The NY Times article states most are sent into the “meatgrinder” — the frontlines where they are mostly cannon fodder, quickly mowed down by Ukrainian drones, soldiers or artillery. Also a look at the Democratic campaign trail / The Correctional Service of Canada confirmed it will distribute paper straws in federal prisons to support "safer snorting" and reduce health risks among inmates / Largest-ever US steel plant is coming to a key red state as President Trump unveils $15B investment / even though consumer spending is up, Americans remain concerned about fuel prices / and America's shortage of skilled trades workers is straining homebuilding, infrastructure and a growing wave of commercial projects, as the industry struggles to bring younger workers into careers such as plumbing, electrical work and HVAC. For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.
