Great news! Remember how Donald Trump used to talk about cutting the U.S. military budget in half and making peace with China and Russia? Well, that's all over because Trump is now calling for a massive INCREASE in the Pentagon budget to $1.5 trillion.

Guest host Chris Keene and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that this dramatic flip-flop contradicts Trump's anti-war rhetoric on the campaign trail and primarily serves the interests of defense contractors, tech firms, and oligarchs rather than public safety. They criticize media and bipartisan political elites for normalizing endless militarization while homelessness, poverty, and social decay worsen at home. The discussion frames the spending surge as part of a broader drift toward global conflict and a clear example of how campaign promises collapse once power is secured.

Plus segments on how recent out-of-control episodes involving ICE are all part of a larger plan for cracking down on Americans' civil rights and why Trump is taking the wrong approach to the unrest in Iran.
