$25 Billion For Iran (So Far)

from The Ignition News Podcast · host From The Rebel Radio Network

On today's Ignition News, the Iran war finally has a price tag: $25 billion confirmed by the Pentagon, with hundreds of billions more on the way. We break down what that money could have paid for instead and why Congress is refusing to hold a vote. Then, Pete Hegseth has a disastrous day before the Armed Services Committee, calling the nuclear justification for this war into question while effectively calling the survivors of a deadly drone attack liars. Plus, the Maine Democratic Senate primary just flipped on its head as the establishment candidate folds to a populist outsider, and what it signals for the party going forward. And a major surveillance investigation update: after two months of NPRA battles, the Flock Safety story in Las Vegas is breaking open. Stay lit.
