 Join us as we sit down with Gia, who was on the ground at the "No Kings" protests in Fort Worth on June 14th12. While mainstream media reported that upwards of 1,000 people gathered in Fort Worth at Burk Burnett Park1, Gia will share what she actually witnessed versus what made it to your news feed.What You'll Hear:
  • Firsthand account of the Fort Worth demonstration atmosphere and crowd dynamics
  • Media portrayal versus reality - did the coverage match what protesters actually experienced?
  • Local law enforcement response and how it compared to Sheriff Tracy Murphree's warning that "violence will be met with deadly force"1
  • The broader context of these nationwide protests against perceived "executive overreach"12
Plus: Breaking Down the Iran SituationWe'll also examine the major escalation in the Middle East, where President Trump announced successful strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities - Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan34. This marked the first instance of direct U.S. military involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict3, followed by Iranian retaliation against Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar on June 23rd5.Why This Matters:
