The war machine never sleeps, and neither does the propaganda that fuels it. Dave DeCamp from Antiwar.com joins us to expose how the Pentagon is considering using Charlie Kirk's assassination as a military recruitment opportunity through Turning Point USA college chapters across the country. We examine Secretary Pete Hegseth's disturbing video featuring the Lord's Prayer over images of military weaponry—a fusion of Christianity and militarism that's raising eyebrows across the religious spectrum.

The hypocrisy runs deep in America's foreign policy. While demanding allies cut ties with Russia, the United States quietly purchased $755 million in Russian uranium this year alone—a $100 million increase from last year. Meanwhile, Trump faces mounting pressure from war hawks in Congress who are pushing legislation with 80 co-sponsors that would place 500% tariffs on Russia's trading partners including India, China, and Brazil—potentially upending the global economic order.

Perhaps most alarming is Trump's stated desire to retake Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, claiming "We want it back quickly and they better give it back to us." The Taliban's defiant response reminds us of the twenty-year war that accomplished little. Trump's justification—that the base is strategically located near Chinese nuclear facilities—raises serious questions about his intentions and judgment. We also examine the escalating maritime strikes against Venezuelan vessels and Netanyahu's frank admission that he has successfully prevented a Palestinian state and will continue to do so—contradicting decades of stated US policy.

These developments reveal an increasingly dangerous American foreign policy landscape where tragedy is exploited for recruitment, economic contradictions abound, and new military adventures loom on the horizon.
