With Rhett Palmer calling in from scenic Vermont, retired U.S. diplomat David Hunter joins the studio for a hard-hitting global rundown you don’t want to miss.

• Why is Secretary of State Marco Rubio planning to slash 3,500 State Department jobs, including 1,500 seasoned Foreign Service Officers? What could this mean for America’s global influence and its citizens abroad?
• Is Iran truly the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism, or is that label more political than factual? David breaks down who decides these classifications—and why.
• Iran’s Grand Ayatollah issues a fatwah against Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, calling them "Enemies of God." What does this religious decree actually mean—and could it have real-world consequences?
• After a brutal twelve-day Iran-Israel war, Trump pushes for a new ceasefire in Gaza, but is the proposed “Witkoff Plan” enough to bring lasting peace? Or is this just another political move?
