Wake up, America. Before it's too late, the Steve Day show.

Greetings. Happy Monday. Welcome to the Steve Day show here live and on demand on Blaze TV radio and podcast.

Steve Day's here alongside Todd Urzen, Aaron McIntyre and all of you coming up on the show today.

The bottom of the hour will be joined by our good friend Bob Vanderplotts from the family leader.

We are under 100 days now to the Iowa caucuses when the first official votes in the 2024 presidential election will be cast.

Candidates were here over the weekend, making some news and we'll get Bob's read on where he thinks the race is coming up here at the bottom of the hour.

And the next hour we will turn it over to you for and ask me anything for the first time ever.

We're going to let our Twitter followers at Steve Day's show.

Our Twitter followers are going to ask the questions this week.

You guys know the drill. Todd selects the questions. I have not seen any of them in advance and then Aaron.

He will spring them on me in real time and you'll get my off the cuff instant reactions and answers coming up here live on the program in the next hour.

But before we get to all of that, let us begin as we always do with Aaron's rundown of what happened while we were away.

Brought to you by Israel's 9-11. The nation of Israel suffered a brutal surprise attack on Saturday as members of the terrorist organization Hamas overwhelmed the unsuspecting Israelis.

Hamas launched a ground, sea and air attack from various locations in the Gaza Strip.

One of the first targets of the terrorist organization was a concert for peace or hundreds of young people gathered.

Hamas terrorists shot and murdered over 200 of them and took even more as hostages.

Hamas also hit several towns near the border of the Gaza Strip going from house to house executing men and taking women and children hostage.

The videos circulated online showing Hamas terrorists back in Gaza with their hostages braiding them naked through the streets.

Before enduring the surprise attack, Hamas launched an innumerable amount of rockets into Israel, apparently overwhelming Israel's vanted Iron Dome defense system.

Videos also show Hamas using drones to target ambulances and other soft civilian targets.

At least 700 are dead, with thousands injured and hundreds more taken hostage.

At least nine Americans are dead with more feared captive.
