About this listen

On America at Night with McGraw Milhaven, Dr. Gregory Koger, Director of the Hanley Democracy Center at the University of Miami, examined what he calls the “filibuster hypocrisy” in Washington, discussing how both parties have shifted their stance on the Senate rule depending on who holds power. Next, Todd Littleton, a Tennessee farmer and agriculture advocate, explained how tensions and conflict involving Iran are affecting American farmers, particularly as spring planting begins and global energy prices, fertilizer costs, and export markets remain uncertain. Later, James Jacoby, director of FRONTLINE’s “Remaking the Middle East: The U.S., Israel, and Iran,” explored how shifting alliances and decades of policy decisions have reshaped the region’s political landscape and the strategic challenges facing the U.S. today. The program wrapped up with Bill Clevlin, founder of Bill on the Road, who joined the show for his weekly travel segment, sharing stories and insights from his latest journeys.
