In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as more details surface about the firing of '60 Minutes' veteran correspondent Scott Pelly, we begin to see the outright lies perpetrated to interviewers and viewers. CBS News’s murder, as Pelley puts it, would not be happening without billionaires like CEO David Ellison cozying up to Trump in order to get federal approval for pending mergers. Yet another lie.

Also the inflation numbers are out and Trump should never say he "loves inflation" / Trump "sneaks" oil through the Strait of Hormuz / The President admits he's being "played" by Iran / Democrats demand security checks for Trump intelligence pick Bill Pulte / the "gestating parent" bill deemed as woke nonsense in Hempstead Township, NY / Trump and Stephen A. Smith in a war of words.
