Shay Khatiri, Vice President of Development and a Senior Fellow at Yorktown Institute, discussing his upbringing in Iran and the newly-ignited conflict between the U.S. and the Islamic Republic. Khatiri shares his unique perspective as a Persian immigrant, having grown up in Iran as a witness to the regime's brutal tactics firsthand. He highlights the regime's history of violence, including the 444-day Iran Hostage Crisis and the regime's killing of over 600 Americans. He also delves into the protests and the role of the U.S. in supporting the Iranian people's desire for change. We're joined by John Dombroski, founder and president of Grand Canyon Planning Associates. Audio clips from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s (D) testimony before the House Oversight Committee on reports of rampant misuse of federal funding in his state.
