Savage interviews Newsmax founder Chris Ruddy about
President Donald Trump’s legacy, the midterms, and the political impact
of the Iran war. They discuss how higher gas prices and the rising cost
of living may pose a threat to Republicans in the midterm elections.
They discuss the Iran War, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s
leadership, and the potential consequences of the conflict for both
America and Israel. They then address the rising antisemitism online and
increasing anti-Jewish hate crimes. Ruddy breaks down recent FCC
rulings that could encourage broadcast consolidation, reduce
competition, and threaten independent outlets such as Newsmax. The
conversation concludes with Ruddy sharing about his upbringing as one of
fourteen children in an Irish Catholic family.
