Episode Description from the Publisher

On this morning's Rush Hour, Dave Neal breaks down the latest Iran war updates as a congressional report lists 81 U.S. aircraft reportedly lost or damaged, including planes, helicopters and drones. Plus, Pete Hegseth and the growing questions around Pentagon transparency: how much is the public being told about the war's toll? Then, Trump's latest payments and promises ahead of the midterms: relief for Americans or a taxpayer-funded campaign pitch? Dave examines the money, the timing and the political sales job—with sharp commentary and a little morning humor. Sponsored by Quince. Download the Quince app today! Sponsored by Hers.
