The War Department is moving 1,000 paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne into the Persian Gulf Theatre. Also deployed were a few thousand Marines and sailors assigned to the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit and its Amphibious Ready Group. Several days ago we sent another 2,500 Marines. Are they about to take Kharg Island? Will they be deployed in a movement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz? With Brian Hook, Roger Zakheim, EJ Antoni, Michael Faulkender, Steve Hilton, and Sen. Tim Sheehy Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The price of Brent crude way back in March 2012 during Obama averaged $123 a barrel. That would be about $175 a barrel in today’s dollars. And meanwhile today, with Brent hovering around $100, it’s only slightly higher than the inflation-adjusted price since January 2001, roughly $95.  So I still believe not only is this a very mild wartime oil shock, it’s a small price to pay for changing history by decapitating the radical Islamic extremist regime in Iran. With General Jack Keane, Sen. John Kennedy, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, Steve Forbes, Liz Peek and Monica Crowley.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It may not be great, but the U.S. economy continues to expand, even with war-related energy prices spiking and a certain amount of anxiety is in the air. I don't deny this. But today’s S&P Global composite remained in growth territory above 50 on the index, and manufacturing actually went up along with new orders. So, at the risk of being wrong, I still believe investors should be staying out of oil, and going into stocks. With Sen. Tommy Tuberville, Robert O'Brien, Marc Thiessen, John Carney, Taylor Riggs, and Gerri Willis.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

President Trump has so brilliantly waged psychological warfare against Iran, alongside military obliteration. Who controls the money post-war will go a long way in determining the success or failure of any deal. Not only who controls the money, but where that money goes. With Newt Gingrich, Steve Moore, Art Laffer, Dan Brouillette, Brett Velicovich, and Sen. James Lankford. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

A reconciliation bill is the only way to keep our military great and our democracy indestructible. The next fight in the Iran war is likely going to be the Pentagon’s request for $200B to keep our military in tip-top shape, not only to complete the mission in Iran, but also to maintain President Trump’s policy of peace through strength. You can bet the Democrats will use this war financing request for their anti-war propaganda.   With Miranda Devine, Caroline Downey, Charlie Hurt, EJ Antoni, Phil Kerpen, John Carney, and Reuel Marc Gerecht.

So it looks like a legal battle between Fed Chairman Jay Powell and President Donald Trump, with #FreeKevinWarsh caught in the middle. I’m betting on Mr. Trump and I'm betting on Mr. Warsh, but it’s a very hinky story right now.With Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Mohamad El-Erian, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, Mike Sommers, Marc Thiessen and Byron York.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Iran certainly is not a forever war as President Trump has said many times. Indeed, Mr. Trump is ending Iran’s forever war against the United States.

Even though the Senate GOP may not have the 60 votes to actually pass the SAVE America voting rights act, that doesn’t mean they can’t talk about it. In fact, they should talk about it. Constantly. Not only because it’s so popular around the country, but it goes to the heart of our democracy.   With Sen. Ron Johnson, General Jack Keane, U.S. Trade Rep Jamieson Greer, Liz Peek, Steve Forbes, and Mark Penn.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Messaging is so important in policy and politics. For example, you may have several million parents and kids going south on spring break, but the entire trip can be ruined by waiting hours in TSA lines, all because Democrats won’t finance the DHS. Democrats are willing to ruin your vacation and republicans should take advantage of that.  With Sen. Tommy Tuberville, Newt Gingrich, Aaron Cohen, Art Laffer, Steve Moore, and Dan Brouillette.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

I've said repeatedly, war opposition is a huge political mistake. This midterm election year, a vast majority of voters back Mr. Trump in order to stop the Iranian nuclear threat and their terrorist activities. The successful conclusion to the Iran war will be a sleeper issue come November.  With Kellyanne Conway, Charlie Hurt, Brett Velicovich, EJ Antoni, Gerri Willis, and Gene Hamilton.  Learn more about your ad choices.

So let me get this right. After every Democrat in the House and Senate voted against One Big, Beautiful Bill, now a couple of presidential wannabees like Cory Booker and Chris Van Hollen are surfacing plans that would end most income taxes for middle class Americans. Really? Plus - can there be regime change in Iran? With Robert O'Brien, Sen. John Barrasso, Byron York, Liz Peek, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, and Dan Clifton.  Learn more about your ad choices.

My advice to investors: look through this war and see the enormous prosperity that lies on the other side. We all know that crude oil and gasoline prices have jumped as a result of the Iran war. But to me, it’s a small price to pay in order to defeat the barbaric terrorist regime in Iran.

When President Trump keeps telling the media that Operation Epic Fury is almost over, and based on the information you’re looking at several more weeks before U.S. war goals have been met, people should listen to him.

President Trump is bending the arc of history toward freedom and prosperity. If you’re looking for economic impact estimates, there is a dime a dozen, and I wouldn’t put any confidence in any of them right now, i.e. inflation, recession, stagflation.

The U.S. is going to give a lot of help to insure and reinsure cargo values moving through the Strait of Hormuz.

When Donald Trump declared his energy policy as ‘drill, baby, drill’ on the campaign trail back in 2015, it was an act of pure genius. Fossil fuel spigots for oil and natural gas were reopened. And the United States became energy independent and dominant. With Reince Priebus, Steve Forbes, Kellyanne Conway, Sen. Tim Sheehy, Sen. Tommy Tuberville, EJ Antoni and Phil Flynn Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

President Trump is changing the international balance of power in ways that will benefit the U.S., Israel, and defend democracies from our enemies for a hundred years or more.
