Episode Description from the Publisher

The United States is preparing its largest sale of bombs to Israel in years, carrying a massive $2.8 billion price tag. And get this... you are paying for it. Plus, Rep. Thomas Massie blindsided House Speaker Mike Johnson and GOP leadership by introducing a surprise privileged motion to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Also, FBI Director Kash Patel went before the Senate Judiciary Committee to defend a bizarre new hiring policy for FBI applicants. And lastly, the Streisand Effect hits Ed Sheeran’s tour after Macklemore was booted for making pro-Palestine remarks. We break down the fallout already happening right now.-- -- --Today's Sponsors:American Alternative Assets - Visit http://JohnLovesGold.com, or call (888) GOLD-053 for your free report.-- -- --LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: youtube.com/@realjohnkiriakou-- -- --Connect with me on social media:Instagram —  instagram.com/realjohnkiriakouTikTok —  tiktok.com/kiriakousbriefingroomX —  x.com/johnkiriakou-- -- --Check out my Cameo! https://www.cameo.com/jkiriakou-- -- --📗 My new book “The Ultimate Guide to CIA Skills, Tactics, and Techniques” is available for pre-order on Amazon:https://a.co/d/0caou5V8-- -- --johnkiriakou.com
