Today marks five years since the Aug. 26, 2021 ISIS-K suicide bombing at Abbey Gate in Kabul that killed 13 U.S. service members and wounded dozens more during the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal. President Trump issued a formal proclamation honoring the fallen. Gold Star families continue seeking full accountability as a Pentagon review panel reports newly recovered classified documents.
The administration is shifting toward a “crushing economic operation” (including expanded sanctions and secondary measures under efforts like Operation Economic Outcast) after months of military pressure, airstrikes, and on-again/off-again talks involving the Strait of Hormuz and nuclear issues. Guests break down the latest leverage play and what it means for the regime in Tehran.
After U.S.-Canada talks collapsed, the Trump administration imposed 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion of Canadian goods.

Analysts assess whether Canada can sustain the fight.
Hosts John Solomon and Amanda Head are joined by Rep. Darrell Issa, Darin Selnick (veterans/defense policy expert and former senior Pentagon adviser), and filmmaker Michael Pack.
