  • Quiet, stealthy content

    Ken being a vet brings a perspective so necessary for a full discussion on the issues in the world. Someone said that republicans love soldiers and hate vets. People like Ken don’t let them get away with it!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump's Ex-Political Director Gets Bad News in Georgia
Q: Can you tell me what you're seeing when you go out and campaigning? What are people talking about around the kitchen table? And how is it connected to what's going on in the greater world?
Keller says voters are focused on rising housing, healthcare, fuel, and grocery costs, while tariffs and the Iran war add pressures for farmers and small businesses. She also says some people who rely on Affordable Care Act coverage fear losing their health insurance.
Trump's Ex-Political Director Gets Bad News in Georgia
Q: Can you just give me a little bit of background on why, especially as a woman, you signed up to do what you did when you did?
Keller says she joined the Army as an enlisted military police officer in 1978 at age 17, later commissioned into the Adjutant General Corps, and encountered restrictions on women's duties early in her career.
Trump's MIDTERM NIGHTMARE Spreads to UNLIKELY PLACE...
Q: How are you bringing your military experience to those conversations? Are people connecting, for example, the war in Iran with these other issues, with inflation and the cost of everyday items with corruption? Are people making those links?
Lacore says cost of living was the main concern when she began campaigning, but voters increasingly raise corruption and understand its connection to their daily lives.
Trump's MIDTERM NIGHTMARE Spreads to UNLIKELY PLACE...
Q: How did you get us there?
Lacore says she had planned to retire in the district, but decided to run after arriving, learning there was an open seat, and hearing from people familiar with politics. She believes her service record and the district's large veteran population make the race competitive.
Trump Weakness Exposed at Pentagon
Q: These systems are given basically things to look for, and they just make decisions on their own to kill them. Is that accurate? Are we there at this point?
Horowitz explains that AI decision-support systems can help prioritize targets while humans remain involved, though the number of potential targets raises questions about how much judgment people apply. Some weapons have used algorithms to select and engage targets for decades, but he emphasizes testing, evaluation and responsible human oversight.
