In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, in what President Trump called "one of the most daring search and rescues in US history", a Pentagon official warns Tehran the Airman's rescue shows the US can penetrate enemy territory 'anywhere' in Iran. Former Pentagon official Brent Sadler said "Not only can we rescue our pilots, but we can also go to where we need to secure nuclear equipment or the remainders of their leadership." Sadler's comments come after the rescue of a U.S. Air Force weapons system officer (WSO) early Sunday morning local time after roughly 36 hours in hiding. The pilot and WSO ejected from an F-15E fighter jet when it was downed over Iran on Friday. The pilot was rescued that morning.

Also the dumbest Democratic take on the war with Iran equating the conflict as a "social media war", the significance of the Department of War and a surprising report from the Bureau of Labor with 178,000 jobs created in March.
