Matt Gagnon discusses his three-month-old son’s behavior and expresses relief that he is easy-going, contrasting him with his previous children. He then shifts to political topics, including judicial decisions related to Trump administration policies, such as the deportation of Venezuelan gang members and the firing of Democratic FTC commissioners. Gagnon criticizes the Trump administration’s actions, arguing that while he agrees with some of Trump’s policies, he emphasizes the importance of adhering to the rule of law and the dangers of ignoring it. He warns against a slippery slope where political actions supersede legal ones, potentially leading to the destruction of the Republic.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Friday that he ordered another strike on a small boat he accused of carrying drugs in the waters off Venezuela, expanding what the Trump administration has declared is an "armed conflict" with cartels.
President Donald Trump has declared drug cartels to be unlawful combatants and says the United States is now in an "armed conflict" with them, according to a Trump administration memo obtained by The Associated Press on Thursday, following recent U.S. strikes on boats in the Caribbean.
