Episode notes
Stephen Miller's Comments Suggest Possible Messaging Shift
- Stephen Miller's on-air comments sounded conciliatory, reframing amnesty debate toward 'immigration that makes us stronger' rather than an outright rejection of amnesty.
- Kelly interprets this as a potential softening tied to President Trump's stance.
Keep Violent Offenders Detained Until Safe
- Kelly highlights the need to keep dangerous individuals detained and to avoid early releases for those with violent or repeated offenses.
- She cites cases like Naomi Guzman and prior violent arrests where release led to further harm.
BUD/S Hell Week Sleep Deprivation Ritual
- Jack Carr describes BUD/S Hell Week sleep deprivation: two hours of sleep broken by flash-bang grenades and blanks from M60s, then freezing surf runs.
- He recalls linking arms, surf collapses, and ringing a bell to quit three times.
