Summary
In Hour 1, Sean Hannity breaks down a rapidly shifting global landscape as mass protests erupt in Iran, Cuba teeters on the edge of collapse, and Nicolás Maduro’s grip on Venezuela finally snaps. Sean examines reports of Iranian security forces standing down, escalating unrest in Tehran, and growing signs the regime may not survive. He also explains why Cuba’s economic model is unraveling and how Venezuela’s liberation could reshape the Western Hemisphere. This hour sets the stage for one of the most consequential geopolitical moments in decades.
