On today’s program: Casey Harper, Managing Editor for Broadcast at The Washington Stand and Host of the “Outstanding” podcast, reports on the announcement of Iran’s new Supreme Leader, the terror attack in New York City, and the status of funding the Department of Homeland Security. Michael Cloud, U.S. Representative for Texas’s 27th District, discusses his references to the Bible during the House Oversight Hearing, news of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s son being elected as Iran’s Supreme Leader, the upcoming reconciliation bill to be proposed by Republicans, and President Trump’s threat to not sign any more bills until the Save America Act is passed. Jonathan Gilliam, a former FBI Agent and Navy SEAL, covers the arrest of two bomb suspects in New York, who made pro-ISIS statements and security threats that may be tied to the Middle East conflict. Dr. David Adesnik, Vice President of Research at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, provides insight into the election of Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, updates on Operation Epic Fury, and President Trump’s comments about sending special forces to secure Iran’s nuclear facilities. Mark Tapscott, Senior Congressional Analyst for The Washington Stand, and Casey Harper review the protests in New York City, the growing number of bomb threats, and how it all ties into the DHS funding, the Save America Act, and the agenda at the GOP legislative retreat.
