On today’s episode of Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson:
A Sunday morning in Kentucky turns violent as a suspect opens fire at both an airport and a local church, injuring multiple victims, including a state trooper. We’ve got the latest on this shocking, developing story.
Then, we revisit the ongoing frustration surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case. Remember when Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel, and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino all demanded the Epstein sex-trafficking records be released? Now the AG is walking back any hope for transparency, claiming there’s “nothing new to report.” Is this justice delayed—or justice denied?
Former ICE Director Tom Homan took CNN’s Dana Bash to school over the weekend, pushing back hard against liberal claims that ICE agents are "racially profiling" illegals in California. Let’s just say… Tom didn’t hold back.
In the world of entertainment, James Gunn’s politically infused Superman reboot may have lifted off—but did woke messaging stall the box office momentum? We'll break down the numbers and the fan reactions.
Plus—South Carolina’s governor’s race just got messier. One early candidate finds himself caught in a messy business dispute… at the worst possible time. We’ve got the backstory and what it could mean for his political future.
