Rivera and Reeves

Foreign policy expert Amanda Peterson returns to break down the most pressing global developments. With massive protests rocking Iran and a high-stakes meeting in Istanbul this Friday featuring Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, what’s Trump’s endgame? Amanda explains why these protests are different, whether the regime is truly threatened, and what US strikes might actually look like. Then the conversation shifts to China: Why did the Pentagon downgrade Beijing as a threat? And why are we selling H200 AI chips to our biggest competitor? Is this strategic positioning ahead of April trade talks—or something more corrupt? Plus: Are global companies hedging their bets between a “rising” China and a “falling” America? Amanda and the hosts don’t hold back. This is the foreign policy breakdown you won’t get from mainstream media.

Tom Homan takes charge in Minneapolis as new video destroys the Alex Preti “peaceful nurse” narrative. We break down the footage showing Preti kicking federal vehicles and spitting at officers just days before the fatal shooting—and why the media won’t touch it. Plus, the FBI just raided Fulton County’s election offices with saws and crowbars, seizing 2020 ballots after years of stonewalling. Why was Tulsi Gabbard lurking in the shadows? Democrats are in full meltdown mode, and Mark Warner is already crying foul. We also discuss nurses gone wild with activist content, MSNow AI-enhanced photos, and a 2010 Obama clip that aged like milk. The Senate budget vote failed, a government shutdown looms, and the narrative is shifting fast.

• Homan takes Minneapolis: Border czar announces targeted operations will continue while roving enforcement scales back—but only if local officials cooperate
• Preti video drops: Footage from January 13 shows him kicking federal vehicles and spitting at officers, undermining the “innocent nurse” narrative
• Fulton County raided: FBI seizes 2020 ballots after county ignored multiple DOJ requests—Tulsi Gabbard spotted on-site in all black
• Nurses gone rogue: Multiple healthcare workers caught posting content about poisoning officers and slipping them laxatives on dates
• MSNBC’s AI edit: Network caught using digitally enhanced photo of Preti—made him look darker, more handsome, and more fit
• Obama’s immigration take: 2010 clip resurfaces showing him sounding exactly like Trump on border enforcement
• Budget battle: Senate test vote fails as Democrats push to separate DHS funding from spending bill

The Minneapolis Border Patrol shooting has exposed a coordinated effort to obstruct federal immigration enforcement—and the administration’s response made everything worse. We break down what actually happened to Alex Pretti versus what DHS claimed, why Kristi Noem and Bovino’s press conference was a disaster, and the Signal chat networks organizing real-time interference with ICE operations. Plus: Tom Homan gets deployed to Minnesota, Tim Walz compares law enforcement to Nazis, and why this feels like 2020 all over again.

Mercedes and Rachel bring their signature no-filter takes on foreign policy wins, media manipulation, and why actions still have consequences. Don’t miss this one.

1:11:49 White House Baby Boom & Closing Thoughts

Anti-ICE protesters stormed a Minneapolis church during Sunday worship—and the media wants you focused on everything except what actually happened. This week, we break down the chaos in Minnesota: from the DOJ’s FACE Act investigation to the “rapid response” vigilante networks profiling random citizens as federal agents. We examine the cases making headlines, what’s being left out of the reporting, and why Tim Walz stayed silent for 36 hours. Plus: the legal realities of due process that no one seems to understand, the difference between administrative and judicial warrants, and what happens when governors play chicken with federal law enforcement. One year into Trump’s second term, the battle lines are drawn—and Minneapolis is ground zero.

• DOJ launches investigation into church protest under FACE Act and KKK Act provisions
• Anti-ICE “rapid response” networks caught profiling citizens based on appearance and vehicle type
• Tim Walz’s 36-hour silence—and his contradictory statements on political violence
• Legal breakdown: administrative warrants vs. judicial warrants and what due process actually means

Republicans have a second reconciliation bill ready—and we got four members of Congress to break it down.

We traveled to Capitol Hill to sit down with Rep. Mark Alford, Rep. Eric Burlison, Rep. Stephanie Bice, and Rep. Ben Cline from the Republican Study Committee. They walked us through the “Make the American Dream Affordable Again” package: mortgage portability, MAHA health accounts, paid family leave without federal mandates, and energy deregulation that can’t be undone by the next president.

Plus: Minneapolis is in chaos after an ICE officer defended himself against three attackers—and the media is running with “ICE shoots man.” We break down the spin, Trump’s Insurrection Act threat, and why the mayor of Minneapolis is making everything worse.

• Exclusive interviews with four RSC members on the second reconciliation bill’s housing, healthcare, and energy provisions
• Mortgage portability explained: How you could take your interest rate with you when you move
• MAHA accounts: Rep. Burlison’s health savings plan developed with RFK Jr.’s team—covers insurance, healthy food, and gym memberships

We break down the largest social program fraud in U.S. history, the DC National Guard shooting by an Afghan national that prompted Trump to suspend asylum, and why Tennessee’s special election has both parties panicking. Plus: Pete Hegseth’s “double tap” controversy gets the New York Times fact-check treatment, and Melania’s White House Christmas decorations prove elegance still exists in Washington.
