Summary

Spring is here and we’re two months in. Two months of crazy. Two months of furor. Two months of chaos. And two months of damage done to the fabric of the country we all love. And just two days after Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff went on CNN to sound the alarm bell and warn that the sloppiness would lead to much, much worse… worse happened. By now you’ve heard about Signalgate, the scandal that has rocked the Trump administration and includes the DNI, SECDEF and Director of the CIA as well as the Vice President and others exchanging sensitive details about a pending strike on Houthi forces in Yemen. It’s a shocking lack of discipline and operational security and the country has taken notice. Big time. And in this pod, we’ve got a guest who is right in the middle of it all. A guest who came directly from a SCIF to do this interview and then immediately after the podcast went to hold hearings on the scandal. It’s Massachusetts Democrat Congressman Seth Moulton—and he’s taking you behind the scenes and deep inside of one of the biggest intelligence failures in American history. It’s the kind of conversation you won’t get anywhere else. And the kind of conversation you can’t afford to miss. And it follows Rieckhoff digging into all of it, the veterans stories you probably missed, Opening Day for baseball, and a celebration of the life of George Foreman. Buckle up, America.
