The Steve Hallstrom Show Episode 665: Trump’s Iran Ultimatum & The IP Address Fraud Scandal

A high-stakes Friday edition of the Steve Hallstrom Show takes listeners inside a pivotal moment for the nation as President Trump convenes a crucial Cabinet meeting. Steve breaks down the President’s "Unleash Hell" warning to Iran and the startling intelligence that the regime was weeks away from a nuclear weapon. Back at home, the show exposes a massive technological "oversight" in Minnesota that allowed state funds to flow to overseas IP addresses untracked. Plus, the Trump administration’s E15 pivot for farmers, a "final salute" for an unclaimed Fargo Marine, and a remarkable story of faith from a South Sudanese leader living in the Red River Valley. Key Moments Live from the Cabinet Room: Steve carries audio from President Trump’s latest Cabinet meeting.
