Battle Hardened and Asking Questions

from The Rob Carson Show · host Newsmax Podcasts

(Previously recorded) -Anthony Fauci lands squarely in Rob’s crosshairs as the show examines - released communications about COVID vaccination during pregnancy. Rob argues officials concealed safety concerns and blasts the media and pharmaceutical industry for the way vaccine coverage is handled.  -Student debt meets socialism, and Rob sees a very expensive cautionary tale. After hearing a DSA member disclose roughly half a million dollars in student loans, Rob marvels at how anyone gets that deep in educational debt and argues that personal disappointment doesn’t constitute a mandate to remake the American economy. -On the Newsmax hotline, retired Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt goes from COVID to combat zones at warp speed. Holt and Rob discuss pandemic-era medical policy before pivoting to Iran, where Holt argues Tehran’s demands are an attempt to convince Iranians the regime is winning and predicts internal opposition ultimately drives political change. They also touch on Venezuela, Cuba and Holt’s Dangerous Intellectuals podcast.
