Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson President Donald Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago this week, and the conversation quickly turned to peace — not war. Zelensky called the talks “a work in progress,” while Trump hinted a deal could be reached sooner than many think. Both leaders expressed the urgent need to end the Russia-Ukraine war, restore stability, and stop the bleeding overseas. Trump revealed he’s already been in contact with Vladimir Putin, saying he plans to personally negotiate an end to the war — a move some critics say is bold, while supporters say it's exactly the kind of leadership the world needs. So is this the beginning of a diplomatic breakthrough? Or just the opening chapter of a long negotiation? Today, we break down: 🇺🇦 What Trump & Zelensky said behind closed doors 📞 Why Trump called Putin “to get the ball rolling” 🕊 How close we really could be to a Ukraine peace deal 💸 What this means for U.S. spending, aid, and taxpayers 🔥 Why negotiations may already be in the final stages If America steps in as a deal-maker — could the war finally end? 🟦 Follow & Connect Website: https://joeyhudson.com Facebook: facebook.com/joeyhudsononline X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/joeyhudson Podcast listeners — leave a voice message or text the Firmin Ford text line 📲 864-477-JOEY (5639) #Trump #Zelensky #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #PeaceTalks #MarALago #DonaldTrump #UkraineNews #Putin #USPolitics #ConservativeNews #WarUpdate #BreakingNews #JoeyHudsonShow

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Investigators in New England have identified the suspected Brown University shooter, and now authorities are examining a possible connection to the murder of an award-winning nuclear scientist at MIT, just 50 miles away. What started as a campus tragedy may now be part of a much larger and more disturbing investigation. Meanwhile, “The View” co-host Joy Behar sparked outrage after lashing out at President Donald Trump, floating the idea of invoking the 25th Amendment over mocking plaques beneath portraits of Democratic presidents. Critics say the media meltdown is yet another example of the left escalating rhetoric when Trump refuses to play by their rules. The nation is also mourning a devastating loss in the racing world. Former NASCAR driver Greg Biffle, along with his wife and two children, were killed in a tragic plane crash near their home in North Carolina.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson President Trump Delivers Blistering Address | Bongino Exits FBI | Reiner Murder Case | SC Antisemitic Threat Arrest President Donald Trump delivered a forceful primetime address to the nation, laying out what he called a full-scale reversal of the economic and political damage left behind by the Biden administration. Speaking from the White House, Trump highlighted tax cuts, tariffs, border enforcement, and a new “warrior dividend,” arguing that America is finally “back on track” after years of runaway spending and inflation pasted . We also break down the sudden departure of FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who announced he will step down less than a year into the role. Bongino’s exit raises serious questions about internal resistance, reform efforts inside the Bureau, and whether true accountability is even possible within Washington’s permanent institutions. Plus, disturbing new developments out of Los Angeles: Nick Reiner, the son of famed filmmaker Rob Reiner, appeared in court charged with the brutal murder of his parents. Prosecutors are weighing special-circumstance charges that could bring life without parole — or worse — as the case moves forward. And closer to home, federal authorities have arrested a Pickens County, South Carolina man accused of making violent, antisemitic threats online, including statements about committing a mass shooting. The FBI says the threats were credible and acted swiftly amid a nationwide surge in antisemitic incidents. Finally, Congressman William Timmons joins the program to discuss the final chaotic days of Congress before the Christmas recess — and what Americans should expect heading into the new year.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Breaking developments across politics, law enforcement, and higher education dominate today’s show. We begin with a major update in the Brown University mass shooting investigation, as police release new surveillance images and ask for the public’s help identifying the suspect. Authorities confirm the person of interest was briefly detained and released, and serious questions are now being raised about campus security failures and delayed emergency alerts. pasted President Donald Trump responds to media backlash after Vanity Fair published comments from Chief of Staff Susie Wiles describing his personality — comments Trump says were taken wildly out of context. The White House pushes back on what it calls another coordinated media hit piece. pasted We also break down a bombshell revelation about the FBI’s 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid, with newly released internal records showing agents did not believe probable cause existed — yet the Biden DOJ approved the search anyway. This raises serious questions about politicization inside federal law enforcement. pasted Finally, South Carolina Senator Josh Kimbrell joins the program to discuss legislative priorities ahead of January’s session — including the controversial chemtrails bill that would ban the airborne release of chemicals over South Carolina airspace. Sen. Kimbrell explains why he believes the proposal is unnecessary and voted against advancing it. pasted 📩 Join the mailing list: https://joeyhudson.com 📺 Subscribe on YouTube for daily news & commentary 📱 Text the show on the Firmin Ford text line: 864-477-JOEY (5639)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson The search continues for the Brown University shooter after police confirmed a person of interest was briefly taken into custody — and then released. Authorities are now asking for the public’s help after releasing new surveillance photos of the suspect. What do we know, and why are there still so many unanswered questions? President Donald Trump escalates the fight against drug cartels, announcing he is officially classifying fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction — a move that could dramatically expand U.S. military and law-enforcement authority against traffickers flooding America with deadly drugs. A shocking Hollywood crime story: Rob Reiner’s son, Nick Reiner, has been charged with murder and is being held without bail in the brutal killing of Princess Bride director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. We break down what’s known and what investigators are saying. And closer to home — the controversy surrounding Oconee County’s Newry Development Project continues to grow. The proposal to add more than 5,000 housing units in a former mill village has already led to major fallout, including the dismissal of the county administrator and the sudden resignation of Clemson University President Jim Clements — a move some believe is tied to the project. To answer the growing list of questions, Oconee County Council Chairman Matthew Durham joins us for an in-depth conversation on the Newry Project, transparency, growth, and what happens next. 👉 Watch, listen, and decide for yourself. 🔔 Subscribe for daily news and commentary 📩 Join the mailing list at JoeyHudson.com 💬 Text the show anytime on the Firmin Ford text line: 864-477-JOEY (5639)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson It was a violent and unsettling weekend — and we’re breaking down the stories the national media is struggling to explain. A person of interest is in custody after a deadly shooting during final exams at Brown University, leaving two students dead and nine others wounded. Key questions remain unanswered as investigators work to determine motive and how the suspect gained access. Meanwhile, across the globe, a terrorist attack at a Hanukkah celebration near Bondi Beach in Australia left at least 15 people dead and more than 40 injured. The victims include a 10-year-old girl, a beloved rabbi, and an elderly Holocaust survivor. One heroic shopkeeper is being credited with tackling and disarming one of the attackers — potentially saving countless lives. Back here at home, former President Joe Biden is reportedly struggling to raise money for his presidential library, according to a new report from The New York Times. After decades in public office, donors appear hesitant — raising questions about Biden’s post-presidency influence and legacy. And in South Carolina, a state Senate subcommittee advanced legislation to ban the airborne release of chemicals into the atmosphere, reigniting debate over so-called “chemtrails” and whether government weather modification programs exist. The bill could soon head to the full Senate for debate.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Today on the show, we break down a major week in Washington and across the country.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Congress has officially passed the $901 billion National Defense Authorization Act, sending the Pentagon’s yearly budget — and all of its major policy fights — to the Senate. The vote breakdown is stunning: 312–112, with 18 Republicans and 94 Democrats voting against it. We’ll walk you through exactly what's in the bill and why both parties are frustrated. Meanwhile, Erika Kirk — widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk — is calling out conspiracy theorists spreading false claims about her husband’s assassination. Her powerful statement is breaking through the noise, and we have the details. At the border, President Trump’s self-deportation incentives appear to be working.

We’ll explain the surge and how DHS says it’s reshaping enforcement. And in the Midwest, fraud scandals involving Somali-linked nonprofits continue to widen.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson President Trump’s State Department has revoked a record-breaking 85,000 visas, citing DUIs, assaults, theft, and national-security concerns — nearly half tied to criminal activity. We break down the numbers, the policy shift, and what it means for America’s borders under the renewed enforcement push.

The move drew immediate condemnation from state GOP leadership — and we’ve got the details. In New York, Attorney General Letitia James is being sued after allegedly threatening to remove school board members who even allow public discussion about transgender students in girls’ sports and locker rooms.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Democrat lawmakers are ramping up their attacks on President Trump’s military strikes on suspected drug-trafficking boats in the Caribbean — even tossing around “war crimes” language over a follow-up strike that killed surviving suspected traffickers. Are these cartel boats “innocent fishermen” or narco-terrorists pumping fentanyl into American communities? We’ll also break down Rep. Ilhan Omar’s attempt to reframe Minnesota’s billion-dollar “Feeding Our Future” scandal, where she insists Somalis are “victims” of fraud — even as whistleblowers say Democrat leadership ignored warning signs for years.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Karoline Leavitt just lit up The New York Times from the White House podium — and we’ve got the full breakdown. In this episode of Just the Truth with Joey Hudson, we dig into Leavitt’s fiery takedown of a NYT “Trump health” hit piece and the media’s double standard after four years of running cover for Joe Biden’s obvious decline. Then we turn to Minnesota, where Governor Tim Walz is facing serious heat. The House Oversight Committee and the U.S. Treasury Department have launched investigations into what may be the largest COVID-era fraud scheme in America — over $1 billion in taxpayer funds meant to feed kids allegedly stolen and laundered into luxury homes, overseas properties, and even terrorist-linked networks.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson An Afghan refugee brought to the U.S. under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome is now accused of murdering a 20-year-old National Guard soldier and critically injuring another just blocks from the White House. Tonight on Just the Truth with Joey Hudson, we break down the leaked emails, the ignored red flags, and the total failure of America’s refugee and asylum system that allowed Rahmanullah Lakanwal to stay in this country… and then allegedly carry out an ambush-style attack on Thanksgiving Eve. Kristi Noem, President Trump’s Secretary of Homeland Security, now says Lakanwal was radicalized here in the United States, not in Afghanistan.

We begin with a message of gratitude as families across America gather for Thanksgiving weekend. Then we’re joined by Greenville’s own “servant-in-chief” Redd Martin, co-founder of Sunday Dinner With a Twist — an outreach that has grown from a simple Sunday meal into a life-changing ministry for men and women battling homelessness in the Upstate.

Then we shift to another side of community care: keeping pets safe and reuniting lost animals with their families. Rachel Delport, CEO of the Greenville Humane Society, joins us to explain their brand-new 24/7 public microchip scanning station — the first of its kind in our area. She walks us through how it works, what Good Samaritans should know, and how GHS continues to expand spay/neuter, low-cost vaccines, and lost-pet resources. 👉 Sunday Dinner With a Twist: https://sundaydinnerwithatwist.org 👉 Greenville Humane Society: https://greenvillehumane.com In This Episode: ✔ Thanksgiving message of gratitude ✔ Feeding the homeless in the Upstate with Redd Martin ✔ Faith-based service during the holidays ✔ How to help, donate, or volunteer ✔ New roadside microchip scanning station at GHS ✔ After-hours lost pet reunions ✔ Affordable pet care: spay/neuter & vaccine clinics ✔ How to get your pet microchipped today If you want a Thanksgiving episode filled with gratitude, hope, service, and practical ways to help our neighbors — this one’s for you.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson A federal judge just threw out the indictments against James Comey and Letitia James — and the decision has a South Carolina twist. Federal Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a longtime South Carolina jurist and Clinton appointee, ruled that the special prosecutor who brought the cases — Lindsey Halligan, a Trump-appointed interim U.S. attorney — was not legally installed in the role. The result? The indictments are dismissed, not because Comey and James were cleared of wrongdoing, but because of a procedural flaw in Halligan’s appointment. The ruling is a major setback for President Trump’s Justice Department, though the White House says it will appeal.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Today on Just the Truth with Joey Hudson we’re tackling two major issues affecting families right here in South Carolina — our growing doctor shortage and a heartbreaking victory for justice in Greenwood. First up, Dr. Oran Smith, Senior Fellow at the Palmetto Promise Institute, joins us to break down a crisis impacting every American: a nationwide shortage of physicians that’s only getting worse. On average, Americans wait 20 days to see a doctor — and in rural and growing states like South Carolina, that delay can turn dangerous. Dr. Smith explains how Senate Bill 376 could help fix the shortage by allowing qualified international physicians to practice in South Carolina through a streamlined licensing process. With a projected deficit of 86,000 doctors by 2036, the Palmetto Promise plan offers a real-world solution that puts patients first. Then — a powerful update to a case we’ve been following for more than a year. South Carolina Representative John McCravy joins us with the latest on Tiffany Jenae Carroll, the Greenwood mother of five who spent years behind bars after killing her abusive boyfriend during a violent domestic incident. After multiple denied parole hearings — including one where a required 2/3 vote fell short because a board member didn’t show up — Ms. Carroll has finally been granted parole. Rep. McCravy explains how community support, law enforcement testimony, and a renewed understanding of domestic violence converged to overturn years of injustice. He also shares what’s next for Tiffany, what support she’ll receive, and why her case could reshape how South Carolina handles battered-spouse syndrome moving forward. These are the stories shaping the future of healthcare, public safety, and justice in the Palmetto State — and we break them down with the experts who are on the front lines. 👇 Timestamps 00:00 – Opening 01:15 – Dr. Oran Smith on America’s Doctor Shortage 10:40 – S.376: A Plan to Bring More Physicians to SC 17:30 – Why Other Countries Have More Doctors 22:00 – Rep.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Washington is heating up again as Democratic leaders accuse President Trump of “encouraging political violence” after he called out six Democrat senators for what he described as seditious behavior. But what they’re not telling you is what sparked this firestorm in the first place — a viral video of those same lawmakers urging military and intelligence officials to defy the Commander-in-Chief. We break down the full story, the spin, and what it means heading into 2026. PLUS — Cracker Barrel is back in the news after a year filled with controversy. Following the company’s annual shareholder meeting, a board member with a heavy DEI background abruptly resigned. What does this mean for the iconic Southern brand? Is Cracker Barrel finally listening to its customer base? We’re also diving into President Trump’s proposed $2,000 Tariff Dividend — real money in Americans’ pockets — but not everyone in Congress is on board. Some Republicans want the money to go toward paying down the exploding national debt instead of direct checks. Is this a smart economic move, or the next big debate inside the GOP?

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson A major new development in the assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk — and the details are disturbing. Charlie’s security director is speaking out for the first time, revealing shocking failures by Utah Valley University and law enforcement that may have left critical vulnerabilities wide open. We break it all down. PLUS — ABC’s Jonathan Karl drops a truth grenade on “The Breakfast Club,” admitting Joe Biden’s decision to run again in 2024 was never seriously debated… and may have erased his entire presidency. Even Democrats are calling it “reckless.” And in Washington, the Epstein drama gets even uglier. House Republicans failed to censure Stacey Plaskett over her documented communications with Jeffrey Epstein — and GOP members say it happened because leadership struck a backroom deal to protect one of their own. We expose the swamp politics behind the vote. Finally, South Carolina State Rep. John McCravy joins us with an update on a Greenwood domestic-violence case we’ve been following for more than a year — and the unexpected breakthrough that has reunited a mother with her children.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Well folks… it was a whirlwind of a day in Washington. Both houses of Congress — yes, both — agreed to send the Epstein Files Disclosure Act straight to President Trump’s desk. That means every unclassified page, every memo, every interview transcript connected to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell is now headed for the public vault. After years of rumors, leaks, and political games — the sunlight is coming. And we’ve got the very latest for you. Meanwhile at the White House… things got a little heated. President Trump lit into ABC’s Mary Bruce during a press spray — accusing her of peddling fake news on Saudi Arabia and Epstein. He even suggested the FCC ought to take a hard look at ABC’s broadcast license. I’ve got the clip… and you’re going to want to hear it. And back home in the Palmetto State… Congresswoman Nancy Mace is once again in national headlines — and once again, not for the right reasons. A bombshell Facebook post from Occupy Democrats claims to have obtained new court filings from her ex-fiancé… and the accusations read like a reality-TV script gone nuclear. Hacking, blackmail, “Jane Doe” conspiracies — and a judge now ordering names released. A lot to unpack today… so let’s get to it. — ✅ BLOCK 1 — FULL 11-MINUTE SEGMENT Your tone: neutral delivery with conservative framing, Fox-style cadence The Epstein political earthquake rolled right through Washington again yesterday — but this time, something remarkable happened. Senate Republicans didn’t block the vote. They didn’t stall it. They didn’t amend it. In fact… they opened the runway for the Epstein disclosure bill to head straight to President Trump’s desk. And for a bill that insiders were calling “dead on arrival” just a week ago, this is a stunning turnaround. Here’s why: When the House passes something 427 to 1… When even the most progressive members sign on… And when President Trump himself says, quote, “We have nothing to hide — release it”… Well, suddenly every political calculation in Washington changes. ✔ WHAT HAPPENED IN THE SENATE Yesterday, Chuck Schumer marched onto the Senate floor demanding immediate passage — no amendments, no delays, no procedural traps. He warned Republicans not to “bury it in committee.” But here’s the twist: Republicans didn’t bury it. They didn’t fight it. They didn’t even insist on a roll-call vote. It passed by unanimous consent — a rare moment of agreement that sent shockwaves through the Capitol. The minute the House clerks finish the paperwork, this bill goes straight to the Resolute Desk for President Trump’s signature. ✔ WHAT THE BILL ACTUALLY REQUIRES This bipartisan resolution — championed by Rep. Thomas Massie and Rep. Ro Khanna — forces the DOJ to: Release all unclassified Epstein & Maxwell documents Make them public in full Make them searchable and downloadable Release them within 30 days of the President signing it No loopholes. No slow-walk. No bureaucratic tricks. And here’s the big political point: Most politicians hate transparency — especially transparency that involves Epstein. But Trump has been the exact opposite. He’s saying: turn the lights on. And just as that dust was settling… things got spicy in the Oval Office. ✔ TRUMP VS. MARY BRUCE — THE CLIP During a press spray with the Saudi Crown Prince, ABC’s Mary Bruce pressed Trump on Epstein and Saudi Arabia. Trump didn’t take kindly to it. He accused her of pushing fake news and even suggested the FCC look at pulling ABC’s broadcast license. CUT #_____ You can hear the room tense up… and the Crown Prince sitting there stone-faced. Say what you will — Trump never backs away from a media confrontation. ✔ WHY SENATE REPUBLICANS LET THE BILL MOVE Behind the scenes, GOP leaders ran what’s known as the “hotline process” — basically checking whether any Republican objected to passing it immediately. Normally, someone would. But not this time. Because here’s the truth: Republicans would’ve looked guilty if they blocked Epstein transparency after the House voted 427–1. Senate Majority Leader John Thune put it plainly: “When a bill passes the House 427–1 and the President says he’ll sign it… changing it isn’t feasible.” Translation: The GOP wasn’t falling for a trap — and they turned the tables instead. They’ll work separately to protect victims' privacy. But politically? They weren’t going to hand Democrats a talking point. ✔ THE BACKFIRE — DEMOCRATS ARE NERVOUS Make no mistake — Democrats expected this bill to corner Donald Trump. Instead? Trump embraced it. Republicans unified. And now Democrats may be realizing they just opened the door to something they can’t control. Because when these documents hit the public eye… we may see names, connections, travel logs, phone records, and correspondence involving people across: Hollywood Wall Street Academia Politics Royal families Foreign governments And not all of those names belong to Republicans. In fact… most don’t. ✔ FINAL TAKE Here’s where we

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson “Breaking overnight: the Senate voted to end the Democrat filibuster on the House-passed clean continuing resolution—paving the way to reopen the government this week. We’ll walk through what’s in it, what’s not, and how fast agencies spin back up. Plus: President Trump floats a $2,000 ‘tariff dividend’ for every American—what that could actually look like. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warns the shutdown is denting Q4 growth, and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says Senator Chuck Schumer is ‘playing politics’ as flight delays grind on. And in South Carolina, authorities rescue 47 dogs in a multi-county dogfighting bust—four men charged. Let’s dig in.” Senate vote / reopening (60s) “Late last night the Senate hit 60 votes to invoke cloture on the House clean CR, breaking the Democrat filibuster and clearing the runway to reopen the government. Mechanics from here: a quick final passage vote, House concurrence if needed on any tweaks, then the President’s signature. Expect agencies to recall furloughed staff and begin phased restoration of services. Key unresolved fights—health-subsidy extensions and longer-term toplines—were punted to the next round. Translation: shutdown relief now, spending battle resumes soon.” Trump ‘tariff dividend’ (60s) “Over the weekend President Trump pledged a ‘dividend of at least $2,000 per person’ funded by tariff revenue. What form could that take? Three paths: 1) a rebate/credit passed by Congress; 2) an IRS tax-credit mechanism; or 3) targeted payroll-tax offsets. Caveats: tariff inflows move with import volumes, many are pre-committed to the general fund, and courts are reviewing aspects of tariff authority. Bottom line: the headline number is bold; the delivery vehicle will decide who qualifies, when, and how large it is.” Bessent on Q4 (45s) “Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told ABC the shutdown is dragging Q4: fewer imports, slower federal outlays, and rising travel disruptions. He signaled a near-term growth dent but said reopening plus supply normalization could steady things into year-end—contingent on Congress locking a longer runway.” Duffy vs. Schumer / flight delays (60s) “Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy accused Chuck Schumer of ‘playing politics’ as FAA controller shortages forced rolling flight cuts at major hubs. Duffy says safety metrics—controller fatigue, radio errors—demanded capacity reductions. He warns delays could worsen before they improve, even after reopening, because retirements spiked during the shutdown. Check your airline app, build buffer time, and rebook tight connections.” SC dogfighting bust (45s) “South Carolina authorities rescued 47 dogs in a multi-county dogfighting takedown. Four men face animal-fighting and cruelty charges; veterinarians report severe neglect and injury patterns consistent with fighting. The dogs are receiving care; we’ll share vetted adoption and donation links as they post.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Here in South Carolina, parents are gaining more control over their children’s education. Freedom In Education has awarded a $50,000 grant to the Palmetto Promise Institute — helping expand the state’s Education Scholarship Trust Fund, which now provides 10,000 scholarships for families seeking private or alternative schooling that better fits their values and their kids’ needs. Joining us to discuss the impact of this growing school choice movement is Dr. Oran Smith, Senior Fellow with Palmetto Promise Institute. And on our guest line — Pete Sepp, President of the National Taxpayers Union — the voice of America’s taxpayers. He’s warning that a proposed change by the Federal Housing Finance Agency could reignite the mistakes of 2008. The FHFA wants to add VantageScore 4.0 alongside FICO for mortgage lending — but critics say it could let underqualified buyers back into the market and leave taxpayers footing the bill if another housing bubble bursts.

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Democrats may be celebrating their election wins — but all is not well inside the party. At a post-election press conference, Sen. Bernie Sanders crashed Chuck Schumer’s podium, blasting party leadership for abandoning socialist candidates like New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. What followed was a stunning display of infighting and political tension that shows how fractured the Democratic coalition has become. Meanwhile, the Schumer Shutdown enters week five — and the fallout is hitting air travelers hard. The FAA and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced a 10% reduction in flights across 40 major airports due to staffing shortages. If you’re flying this weekend, you’ll want to double-check your plans. And in an emotional moment that’s gripping the nation — Erika Kirk, widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, is calling for cameras to remain in the courtroom for the trial of her husband’s accused killer. “There were cameras when my husband was murdered,” she said. “There should be cameras for the truth.” We’ll cover all that and more — plus my take on what Tuesday’s results really mean for 2026. The bottom line: we’ve got work to do. 📢 Join the conversation: 📱 Text or call the Firmin Ford Line: 864-477-JOEY (5639) 💬 Leave a voicemail for a future broadcast 🌐 JoeyHudson.com | YouTube.com/@JoeyHudsonOnline 📲 Follow on Facebook and X/Twitter #BernieSanders #ChuckSchumer #ZohranMamdani #DemocraticSocialists #GovernmentShutdown #FAA #FlightDelays #ErikaKirk #CharlieKirk #TurningPointUSA #CourtTransparency #JoeyHudson #JustTheTruthPodcast #ConservativeNews #FaithAndFreedom #ElectionResults #2026Midterms

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson President Donald Trump made headlines this weekend after a tense, no-holds-barred interview on CBS’s “60 Minutes.” From nuclear testing to immigration crackdowns, the President didn’t pull any punches — and we’ve got the highlights.
