The media tried to claim a Trump cabinet scalp—but did they succeed? Buck breaks down what really happened with National Security Advisor Mike Waltz’s reassignment to U.S. Ambassador to the UN, why it’s not the firing the media hoped for, and what it signals about the upgraded staffing and discipline of the current Trump team. He also dives into deeper tensions within national security circles, including looming decisions about Iran, and blasts the Biden administration’s open border agenda. Plus, Tom Homan sends a warning shot to sanctuary cities, and Buck reacts to the Trump team moving to end protected status for 600,000 Venezuelans.
