Is the Iran War REALLY America First? Pete Hegseth's Informative '60 Minutes' Interview | 3/9/26

President Donald Trump has intensified the U.S. campaign against Iran, demanding unconditional surrender from the regime and warning that any new supreme leader will not last without American approval. The ongoing conflict has driven global oil prices surging past $100 per barrel for the first time in years, disrupting supplies through the Strait of Hormuz and causing sharp rises in U.S. gas prices, which Trump dismissed as a short-term and small price to pay for eliminating Iran's nuclear threat. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, in his recent "60 Minutes" interview, defended the strategy, stating the U.S. is "on track" and "willing to go as far as we need to," including reserving the right to deploy boots on the ground if necessary, while insisting that Iran will ultimately have no choice but to surrender. He emphasized that the military is diminishing Iran's naval capabilities and confronting any external aid, such as reported Russian intelligence-sharing, strongly. Hegseth concluded by framing the operation as putting America First through decisive action to bring the enemy to its knees. WE ALSO COVER: It’s official: a new ayatollah in Iran.

Kristi Noem's tenure as DHS secretary was marked by significant controversy, including a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign featuring her prominently to urge self-deportations, which drew bipartisan criticism for waste and self-promotion, alongside allegations of mismanagement, chaotic leadership, and scrutiny over her close ties to adviser Corey Lewandowski. President Trump fired Noem and nominated Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R) to replace her as homeland security secretary, effective March 31, 2026, while reassigning Noem to a new role as special envoy for the Shield of the Americas, focused on Western Hemisphere security.

James Talarico, a Texas Democrat and seminarian, has drawn conservative ire for his progressive interpretations of Scripture, often using biblical teachings to advocate for social justice issues like LGBTQ+ rights and women's equality. He has preached that Jesus exemplified feminist principles by affirming women's roles and dignity in a patriarchal society, challenging traditional norms through interactions like those with the Samaritan woman. Additionally, Talarico has controversially stated that God is nonbinary, drawing from biblical ideas that divinity transcends gender. This approach is dangerous, as it risks distorting core Christian doctrines to fit modern political agendas, just as the apostle Paul warned in 2 Timothy 4:3-4: "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear." WE ALSO COVER: White House explains oil prices.

President Donald Trump addressed the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, defending the military campaign as necessary to prevent a larger nuclear threat and asserting that Iran's air force, navy, and missile capabilities have been largely "knocked out." He denied claims that Israel, under Netanyahu, forced the U.S. into the war, instead claiming that "if anything, I might have forced Israel's hand" because he believed Iran was preparing to attack first amid failed negotiations. In a key moment, Trump announced new strikes targeting Iranian leadership and speculated on post-regime possibilities, noting that many potential moderate successors "are dead" after the killing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He also threatened to cut off all trade ties with Spain, calling the country "terrible" and "unfriendly" for refusing to allow U.S. use of its military bases. Overall, Trump portrayed Operation Epic Fury as progressing ahead of schedule, while the conflict widened with Iranian retaliatory strikes on Gulf targets and U.S. pledges to escort oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz.

The House Oversight Committee has boldly released full video footage of Bill and Hillary Clinton's depositions on their ties to Jeffrey Epstein, finally bringing transparency to the American people about the elite's connections to this monster. Bill dodges tough questions with convenient memory lapses, while Hillary grows visibly upset and snaps during pointed grilling by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), exposing her arrogance and defensiveness when confronted with uncomfortable facts. The Clintons' evasive answers and heated outbursts only confirm their long history of putting personal power above accountability and justice for victims. Kudos to the committee for cutting through the swamp and getting these damning truths out — America deserves to see the real Clintons unfiltered. We also cover: Marco Rubio on imminent threat.

Operation Epic Fury, the decisive U.S.-led military campaign authorized by President Trump, has achieved striking early success by crippling Iran's nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile stockpiles, air defenses, and key Revolutionary Guard command centers shortly after launch. Executed in close partnership with Israel — whose parallel Operation Roaring Lion delivered precision strikes, including the confirmed elimination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — the joint effort combined overwhelming American airpower, stealth bombers, and advanced drones with Israel's deep intelligence and targeted capabilities to rapidly overwhelm Iranian defenses. Supporters hail the operation's progress as a historic demonstration of peace through strength, delivering devastating blows to the regime's terror apparatus and nuclear ambitions ahead of schedule while minimizing prolonged escalation.

Hillary Clinton's closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee on Jeffrey Epstein produced zero new information, as she repeatedly denied ever meeting Epstein, having any connection to him, or knowing about his crimes. Despite over six hours of questioning, her answers stayed limited to blanket denials like "I never met Jeffrey Epstein" and "I had no idea about their criminal activities," offering nothing substantive to advance the probe into elite accountability. Critics see this as classic evasion, with Clinton dismissing the entire session as repetitive "political theater" designed to distract from others like President Trump rather than uncover truth for victims.

The Trump administration is temporarily halting $259 MILLION in federal Medicaid payments until the state stops the massive taxpayer waste. This is the FIRST big win in President Trump's "war on fraud."
