warning you're about to enter the arena and join the battle to save america with your host john parnell

good evening america welcome to battleground live this is the show where we kick ass and take names

and lock horns with the radical left.

We never quit. We never surrender from C to shining C and everybody in between welcome

Patriots on this Savage Wednesday. We've got Savage Rich Barris on deck. It's going to be an

awesome show. We have so much to talk talk about savage rich is actually he's got his

show inside the numbers but now he's doing something this called between the numbers i think it's a

very good thing uh because rich is not only he is is he the best polster in the business i was talking to

him earlier today and i said he's actually got, he's actually insanely entertaining.

He's got great takes. He should, he should do more shows. And so really awesome, really awesome to

see that he's doing that. But folks, yeah, let me just tell you, I am sorry about missing Monday

and Tuesday. I did not have to, I didn't expect to have to be in D.C.

as early as I did.

And when I got the ask to come down to D.C.,

I realized that the timeline with the show just wasn't going to work.

So I had to put that video out on Monday and then drive down to D.C. to get there for a meeting and then go into the Hegseth hearing, which we had to show up for super, super early to prep and then go into the actual hearing itself.

Let me tell you, folks, we are going to get into that and a lot more all of Trump's cabinet nomination hearings

that are going on today. There's a lot of them. We're going to talk about all of it.

But right off the top rope, let me tell you that there was a hostage deal reached. And it looks like

if everything stays locked on target, that Americans who are held hostage by Hamas will be coming home.

And the funny thing is, it's not funny.

I mean, this entire situation is tragic.
