Trump Responds to Iran Threats | Tim Walz Defends Controversial Pardon (Ep 785)

from Joey Hudson / Just The Truth · host Joey Hudson

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Today's show covers escalating tensions with Iran, a contentious Senate confirmation hearing, renewed controversy surrounding Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and South Carolina's ongoing budget stalemate. President Donald Trump made his first public appearance outside the White House since the NATO summit, addressing reported threats from Iran and saying his focus remains on weakening the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The President also claimed the IRGC has lost roughly 90% of its weapons capability following continued military operations. We have the latest developments from the Middle East. Meanwhile, the White House sharply criticized questioning by Senator Mazie Hirono during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing for acting Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche. We'll review the exchange and what to expect as confirmation hearings continue. Also today, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is defending his support for pardoning a Laotian national who had been convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl before later being deported after the Trump administration took action. We examine the timeline, the governor's comments, and the political reaction. And here in South Carolina, lawmakers still have not reached agreement on a state budget, leaving the government operating under a continuing resolution weeks into the new fiscal year. We'll explain how continuing resolutions work, why the budget remains unresolved, and what the delay means for taxpayers and state agencies. 🎯 In Today's Show: Trump addresses threats from Iran Latest update on military operations against the IRGC Todd Blanche Senate confirmation hearing White House responds to Mazie Hirono Tim Walz defends controversial pardon South Carolina budget stalemate explained 📩 Join our mailing list at JoeyHudson.com 📱 Text or call the Firmin Ford text line: 864-477-JOEY (5639) 👉 Subscribe for daily breaking news, political analysis, South Carolina news, and interviews with the leaders shaping today's headlines. #BreakingNews #Trump #Iran #IRGC #ToddBlanche #TimWalz #SouthCarolina #Budget #Politics #MazieHirono #JustTheTruth #TrendingNow #SCPolitics
