Plus, Alireza Jafarzadeh joins the program with a powerful perspective on Iran. Is today’s unrest anything like the 1979 revolution? Are we on the brink of something historic in the Persian Gulf?

White House border czar Tom Homan held a no-nonsense presser from Minneapolis, and while his tone was surprisingly measured, his message packed a punch. After being sent by Donald Trump to calm the storm following the federal enforcement clashes in Minnesota, Homan said big shifts are coming: federal agents will be drawn down and redeployed more strategically as cooperation grows with local officials, and enforcement will stay focused on known public-safety threats, not flash mobs on the streets. The plan, he stressed, won’t abandon law enforcement — it will refine and improve it, with federal agents staying until the mission is complete and effective. Homan’s approach? More targeted actions, less chaos, and a firm stance that justice will be upheld, even as he pushes back on left-wing rhetoric and insists the mission isn’t over.
