The war between Iran, Israel, and the United States is escalating rapidly. After a coordinated U.S.-Israeli strike campaign against Iranian targets, retaliation across the region has followed, and six American service members have now been killed. As tensions rise and the conflict spreads across the Middle East, a major question is now emerging: could the United States eventually send ground troops into Iran? In this episode of the Investigate Earth Podcast, Chad and Sheri break down the latest developments, the history behind the conflict, and the growing concerns about escalation. With the war expanding, oil markets reacting, and global tensions rising, they explore what this moment could mean for the United States, the Middle East, and the possibility of a much larger war.

On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched a coordinated military offensive against Iran, targeting leadership and nuclear sites in a surprise daytime assault. The strikes — dubbed “Operation Epic Fury” — have triggered Iranian retaliation, global geopolitical shockwaves, and claims that Iran’s Supreme Leader has been killed. We break down how this conflict began, what it means for the Middle East, and why the world is now on edge.

Are we on the verge of real UFO disclosure? In this episode of Investigate Earth Live, we break down the latest developments surrounding renewed calls for transparency on unidentified aerial phenomena. After former President Barack Obama made public comments acknowledging the reality of unexplained objects tracked by the military, President Donald Trump responded by saying the American people should see everything the government knows about UFOs. We examine what Trump actually said about releasing files, what Obama’s comments really meant, and how this political back-and-forth fits into the broader disclosure movement. We also analyze newly released whistleblower video circulated by Jeremy Corbell, and discuss whether this footage represents meaningful evidence, strategic leaks, or something else entirely. Is this coordinated transparency, political positioning, or the beginning of a larger shift in how the U.S. government handles UFO information? We separate speculation from documented statements and explore what this moment could mean for the future of disclosure.

The Epstein files were supposed to expose the full scope of Jeffrey Epstein’s elite sex trafficking network. But as more information surfaces, many are asking whether the connections extend further than originally believed, possibly even into South Carolina. In this episode of Investigate Earth, we speak with FITS News investigative journalist Andy Fancher about corruption, unanswered questions, and how national scandals can intersect with local power structures. We also welcome Benna Thompson, who is seeking deeper scrutiny into the death of her husband’s female cousin, a case officially ruled a suicide. Benna believes critical details have not been fully examined and questions whether her husband’s cousin may have been connected to something much larger. Is there a broader story behind the headlines? Could elite trafficking networks have ties that reach closer to home? Tonight, we examine the allegations, the evidence, and the questions that refuse to go away.

With World War 3 fears trending around global headlines and search interest spiking over a possible U.S.–Iran conflict, this episode breaks down the latest escalation between Washington and Tehran and what it could mean for the world. Amid renewed indirect nuclear talks in Geneva and rare military actions like Iran’s temporary closure of the Strait of Hormuz during live-fire drills, tensions are rising on multiple fronts — diplomacy and deterrence are moving in opposite directions. The United States has deployed multiple aircraft carrier strike groups to the Middle East and maintained pressure on Iran to curb its nuclear program, while Iran’s leadership has issued stark warnings and showcased military readiness in critical waterways. With unresolved gaps in negotiations and heightened rhetoric on both sides, experts warn that miscalculations could escalate a regional crisis into something far more serious. Tonight we unpack the key players, flashpoints, and what global audiences should be watching as this standoff unfolds.
