Swalwell DONE! Rape Investigation & Expulsion! @Miltimore79 @realTomPappert @RandPaul #WakeUpAmerica

from The Wake Up America show with Austin Petersen · host wakeupamericashow

Swalwell QUITS Governor Race Amid Rape Investigation | Iran War Update | Masculinity Crisis | Rand Paul 2028 | Wake Up America with Austin Petersen Eric Swalwell — the California Congressman who once threatened gun owners with nuclear weapons — dropped out of the governor's race Sunday night as a Manhattan DA criminal investigation opened into rape allegations from four women, including a former staffer. We're covering every angle, including Austin's personal history with Swalwell going back to 2018 when Swalwell called him a "troll" on Twitter during his Missouri Senate campaign. Full accountability, zero sympathy. Then — the Iran war escalated dramatically this weekend. Peace talks in Islamabad collapsed after 21 hours of negotiations. Trump announced a full naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz beginning yesterday. Gas prices are up 31% since the war began. We break down the honest challenges AND the case for why this moment may be the most consequential strategic realignment in the Middle East since 1979. American energy dominance is being proven in real time with an armada of supertankers loading US crude in the Gulf of America. Plus — Jon Miltimore from the American Institute for Economic Research (@Miltimore79) joins us to discuss the Wall Street Journal's fascinating piece on the masculinity crisis in America, what prestige television tells us about lost men, and why Jennifer Siebel Newsom's war on masculine virtue looks a little different the morning after her party's front-runner quit a governor's race over rape allegations. And — Tom Pappert from the Tennessee Star (@RealTomPappert) is here for a tough love conversation about Rand Paul's 2028 presidential flirtation. We're both fans. We both think it's a bad idea. We'll tell you exactly why — and what we'd say to him if he called. ───────────────────────────── 🔥 BONUS CONTENT — YOU UNLOCK IT LIVE ───────────────────────────── Every Rumble rant, gift sub, and purchase during the live show builds toward our bonus content unlocks: 🎬 $100 raised → Watch a 5-minute Lego-style mini documentary — a full biopic of an American Revolution hero, made exclusively for Wake Up America.
