Midterm Storms, Drone Warfare, and Rove’s Reality Check

from What's On Your Mind Hosted by The Flag - AM 1100 and FM 92.3 WZFG

Senator Kevin Cramer calls in directly from the Warsaw Security Forum to break down his recent trip to Kyiv, where Ukraine is churning out 5,000 drones a day and taking down Russian cyber-bot data centers. The conversation tackles the philosophy and political fallout surrounding televised military executions, ticket-sabotage tactics targeting Riley Gaines’ upcoming Turning Point USA college event, and breaking news on a DHS raid targeting Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home. Plus, legendary political strategist Karl Rove joins the show to deliver a candid assessment of the upcoming midterm elections, media narratives, and the historic resilience of Theodore Roosevelt in western North Dakota.
