Will the 2026 election end the conflict with Iran? Sen. Jim Talent joins Annie to break it down.
Annie Frey and the crew tackle the biggest national security threats and local Missouri headlines. Former U.S. Senator Jim Talent returns to discuss Donald Trump’s bold claim that the ongoing conflict with Iran will end immediately following the upcoming election. Sen. Talent breaks down Iran’s collapsing deterrence, the financial sanctions crippling their regime, and why they are losing their grip on proxy terror groups across the Middle East. Are they headed toward total collapse, or will the U.S. be forced to intervene further?
Later, Annie and the team reflect on the tragic, one-year anniversary of Charlie Kirk's death. They explore the lingering questions surrounding the shocking incident, the motivations of Tyler Robinson, and take time to honor Charlie's massive, enduring impact on the conservative movement.
To lighten the mood, the crew also dives into the bizarre trend of naked e-bikers crashing nature trails, a competitive grave-digging contest in Hungary, and a look at the St. Louis Cardinals' final homestand.
Episode Highlights:
• Sen. Jim Talent explains why Iran's aggressive military posturing is actually a sign of desperation.
• How the U.S. can use financial pressure to bankrupt state sponsors of terror.
• Remembering Charlie Kirk one year after his tragic passing and asking the tough questions about his attacker.
