Drew Steele and Florida’s Voice break down the Federal Reserve’s first rate hike in three years — a quarter-point jump that sent the Dow plunging 665 points — as energy prices, diesel costs, and refining shortages squeeze American families. The show covers Iran striking a U.S.-contracted vessel near the Strait of Hormuz, record oil flows that still aren’t lowering prices, and the midterm implications just weeks out. Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marcino joins to detail Operation White Tide: more than 100 arrests, 51 guns off the street, kilos of cocaine and fentanyl seized, and overdose deaths dropping from 192 to 62. He also discusses Florida’s zero-tolerance animal cruelty task force. Florida GOP Chair Evan Power talks midterms, David Jolly vs. Byron Donalds on insurance, Susie Wiles’ cancer-free news, and why Florida’s grassroots matter. Plus: a Hillsborough County School Board meeting where a pastor reads explicit material from books still in K-8 schools, Attorney General James Uthmeyer’s child predator charges, Gov. DeSantis on AI and elections, AOC’s comments on Ed Sheeran and Macklemore, Michigan’s 8,000 botched enhanced driver’s licenses, and a UK village voting to leave over migrant dumping. Straight talk, Florida headlines, and no filter.
