This Week Unfiltered 05.08.25

Today we’re taking an UNFILTERED look at the plans Donald Trump has for our military – will having more parades and fewer generals keep us safe in this dangerous world?

Also, can the administration truly make America healthy again by cutting $880 billion from Medicaid?

Plus, there’s trouble in the skies over Newark, Alcatraz is poised to return, and the President “doesn’t know” if he needs to follow the constitution.

This is TRUTH IN THE BARREL – a different kind of whiskey rebellion.
