Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss yesterday’s speech by Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Parthenon in Greece defending Western civilization, and reactions to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s official statement on the third anniversary of the October 7th massacre in Israel by Hamas terrorists. Then, filmmaker Eli Steele joins the guys to discuss his new documentary, “Shelby Steele’s White Guilt,” which looks at the history of race in America and the rise of identity politics. And finally, they discuss last night’s Senatorial debate in Kansas, President Trump’s statement that he may fire top political aides Chris LaCivita and James Blair for providing election advice to a Russia-linked government while playing key roles in his midterm campaign operation, and a Wall Street Journal article focusing on US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle that alleges she asked a supporter of President Trump to pay her $100,000 credit card bill just before her confirmation hearing in exchange for access to Trump officials.
