Summary

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Gary flies solo this morning as Eric takes some personal time off. We begin by reports that Ilhan Omar says she isn’t a multimillionaire by blaming an accounting error. President Trump has suggested the Minnesota congresswoman profited from a massive welfare fraud scandal still being investigated. Congresswoman Omar and her husband Tim Mynett have a net worth between $6 million to $30 million according to their 2025 disclosure. However disclosures from the end of 2023 showed the pair had ownership stakes that only add to the value of just above $51,000. Also the latest on the war with Iran with audio from CBS' 60 Minutes on Iran's nuclear capabilities, hundreds of commercial tankers are stranded on both sides of the Strait of Hormuz after Iran shut the critical chokepoint on April 18, halting traffic and leaving crews trapped amid reports of gunfire and "traumatic experiences" on board. Also the "ups and downs" of negotiating with Iran, President Trump wants uranium enriched nuclear dust by sending in excavators and it's 4/20 meaning pot smokers will celebrate today along with Earth Day this Wednesday. For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.
