    05-05-26 Part One - A Broken Cease Fire and Happy Nazis
    May 5 2026
    In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the fragile ceasefire with Iran faces its biggest threat to date as President Trump announced plans for U.S. forces to "guide" vessels through the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. blockade on Iranian ports will continue, with U.S. Central Command saying they have already redirected at least 49 ships. The British military’s maritime trade center reported an attack on a trade vessel by multiple small craft just 11 miles off Iran's coast in the strait on Sunday. Iran's military has vowed to attack any U.S. forces that enter the strait. Also maintaining allied agreement to finish the war, how the mid-terms will effect the outcome of the war, the assassination conspiracy theory of Jesse Ventura, weighing the odds against the possibilites of UFOs, Bigfoot and traveling to Mars, Elizabeth Warren makes apology for Graham Platner and his Nazi tattoo and the liberal's hatred for women and "happy Nazis".

    May 5 2026
    In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we continue our discussion of Graham Platner's visit to the tattoo parlor, making the decision between (say) a Betty Boop tattoo on the ankle, or a Nazi swastika on the chest. He went with the latter and enjoys liberal immunity nonetheless. Also six Chicago area Walgreens have closed on the city's South Side during the past year. One alderman calls it pharmaceutical genocide. Walgreens says one location in Chatham is closing on June 4 because of high levels of theft and violent incidents. Protesters are calling it "corporate abandonment", a health scare for Rudy Guliani and funny headlines from the Babylon Bee.
