Trump’s Strike on Iran, Ceasefire Strategy, and Ivy League Illusions
Podcast:Rich Valdés America At Night Published On: Tue Jun 24 2025 Description: Rich is joined by Tony Grady—former U.S. Air Force test pilot and recent Senate candidate from Nevada—to break down the covert bombing mission reportedly authorized by President Trump: Operation Midnight Hammer. Grady explores the tactics and precision strategy that could have been used to carry out the targeted strike on Iran. Next, Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Blaine Holt—Air Force veteran, NATO advisor, entrepreneur, and Newsmax senior contributor—explains how Trump executed a geopolitical chess move: launching a strike, pressuring Iran into a ceasefire with Israel, and halting their nuclear ambitions. He also addresses the growing concerns over Iran’s potential disruption of the Strait of Hormuz and the looming sleeper cell threat inside U.S. borders. Finally, Adam Kissel, visiting fellow for higher education reform at The Heritage Foundation, exposes the growing ideological bias and academic decline in Ivy League institutions—and how the nation’s top schools are failing to equip students with truth, balance, and intellectual rigor.
