Epstein Files, Big Tech Censorship, and Sanctuary Airports  |  Hugh Hewitt with Senator Ted Cruz

This year marks 25 years since September 11, 2001.

Since then, America has grown older, and soberer.

We’ve learned the hard way that even the world’s greatest military cannot remake the Middle East. After Iraq and Afghanistan, few Americans want another long conflict in a distant land.

But let’s be clear: Iran isn’t some random target. For nearly fifty years, its regime has waged war against us— directly and through terrorist proxies —working constantly to destabilize the region and beyond.

It has taken Americans hostage, pursued nuclear weapons, funded terror groups, aided our enemies, and even plotted to assassinate our president. Reports indicate it was preparing attacks on U.S. interests in the Middle East.

Iran’s evil leaders abused America for decades with impunity. Good riddance.

It’s difficult to escape the conclusion that many Americans hate President Trump so much they’d rather see the butcher Khamenei alive, the Iranian people under his boot and mullahs with a nuclear weapon than see Trump triumph.

This level of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” well, it’s toxic.

Had Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio beaten Clinton and done these same things, Reagan and Bush-era politicos would have cheered. Today’s most adamant Trump haters would have been leading the ovation.

When Obama ordered the mission to kill bin Laden, I don’t recall his critics refusing to credit him. They loved America more than they disliked “44.”

And old guard Republicans who battled FDR throughout the ’30s quickly rallied to his side when Pearl Harbor happened. Country comes or should come before politics.

Perhaps someone will break free of the anti-Trump cult and show the way out.

We are waiting for that first turning from the “TDS” crowd. We may wait a long time.

Hugh Hewitt: "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is Now Toxic

As we watch the fall of Iran’s hardline Islamist regime, nothing has been more moving than the palpable, heartfelt joy of the country’s women.

They’re dancing in public. Singing. Throwing off the hijabs that have been forced on them for decades by a theocratic dictatorship.

America acted to protect our own citizens and interests. But it’s also glorious to witness the unfolding liberation of a people who’ve endured such systematic humiliation and repression.

Self-described American feminists should look deep into their own souls. For years, they’ve invoked “The Handmaids Tale.” Yet when confronted with real women living under genuine, brutal subjugation, they’re silent, or even—like Kamala Harris—opposed to the action that is freeing them. 

That’s not solidarity. It’s selective outrage. May the women of Iran women secure the freedom so long denied them.
