Description
Pete Hegseth is under fire for demanding a record-breaking $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget—a staggering $5,000 cost per American household.
Thom Hartmann breaks down the six biggest stories of the day, from the military’s push for "unlimited money" to a controversial provision that could merge the U.S. and Israeli militaries.
We also examine why 105 million Americans are now out of the labor force, the threat of new military strikes in Mali, and the growing public health crisis as the CDC faces massive layoffs. Plus, a deep dive into an investigation revealing that ICE’s claims of "vehicle attacks" are consistently falling apart in court. Stay informed on the news for the public, not the powerful.
