Rookie mistake. Set the bar too high. •The Will Cain Show with 3.5 million P2+ and 451,000 A25-54 •Will Cain increases the 4pm slot vs. same period last year by more than double with P2+ and by more than triple with A25-54 and A18-49.    •Will Cain’s share of the cable news audience for his debut was 68% with P2+, 73% with A25-54 and 71% with A18-49.  •Debut was a top 10 telecast in all TV vs. all cable and broadcast prime Thank you! Awesome start!

Let me tell you something about your new nominee for SecDef. Yeah he’s my friend and an awesome patriot and I’d go to the wall for him. But I’m not alone. I’m thankful that because of my job I have gotten to know hundreds of SEALS, Green Berets, Marines, pilots and infantrymen. The men who actually fight wars. And he has the respect of them ALL. You see, importantly for America he’s a war fighter. Who understands war fighters. He hasn’t spent his career climbing the ladder of ass kissing promotions and defense contractor hand shakes. He hasn’t sold his soul for another star on his uniform. He won his medals on the battlefield. He’s wicked smart. But more importantly principled and strong. He understands the purpose of the U.S. military. And he will make it GREAT AGAIN. 🇺🇸

I can’t believe I just had to announce on live TV the death of a friend. I can’t believe this is where we are in America. Charlie was a man of God. A Christian. A Patriot. A family man. A husband and father. And a really good man. Everyone, everyone counted him as a friend. That’s because in a business of narcissism and competition Charlie supported everyone. He texted, he DM’d, he called, he cheered you on and complimented your work. Charlie was also a legendary influence. Most notably on young people. College kids on gameday kickoff and my own kids asked if I knew Charlie Kirk. He won over a generation. He also counted Americas leaders as his friends. I know. Charlie was incredibly persuasive and an unparalleled debater. He engaged and invited those who thought him wrong. Even those that thought him evil. It says something real that the only rebuttal to stop Charlie was violence. But it won’t stop Charlie. Because it won’t stop us. You just lifted up Charlie.

A Fox & Friends weekend co-host is not qualified to be the Secretary of Defense. I lead the Senate military personnel panel. All three of my brothers served in uniform. I respect every one of our servicemembers. Donald Trump’s pick will make us less safe and must be rejected.

I always pull for Team USA. All sports. And I really don’t take joy in the earliest elimination ever for the USWNT. But this team came to be defined by arrogant celebrity activists who went out of their way to exhibit shame in the US, begin the process of destroying their own sport (advocating for men to play women’s sports) and curry victimization with false narratives about equal pay. Nobody made it harder to root for them than the USWNT. There are women on this team who have poured their heart and soul and sweat into this team for the US. Who are proud Americans focused on soccer. I hope those players define the future of the USWNT.

NEW Ten current and former Fox employees say that Pete Hegseth, Trump’s pick for defense secretary, drank in ways that concerned his co-workers. Two of those people said that on more than a dozen occasions during Hegseth’s time as a co-host of “Fox & Friends Weekend,” which began in 2017, they smelled alcohol on him before he went on air. Three current employees said that his drinking remained a concern up until Trump announced him as his choice to run the Pentagon, at which point Hegseth left Fox. A Trump transition team spokesperson called the claims "completely unfounded and false." Full Story: bit.ly/4glgm0R

This video is the smoking gun. Everything else is connecting the dots to this video. 1. The prosecutor Biden is demanding be fired is Viktor Shokin. 2. Shokin was investigating Ukrainian energy company Burisma for corruption. 3. Burisma put Hunter Biden on it’s board for 1M a year. 4. Hunter had no experience in energy. Didn’t speak Ukrainian. Or Russian. But he did know Joe Biden. 5. In fact, he had access to Joe Biden. And as Devon Archer’s testimony today confirms Hunter put Joe on the phone to prove that access. 6. FBI 1023 investigative forms show a confidential informant saying Burisma execs paid 10m to the Bidens to handle the problems for Burisma. 7. Lo and behold Shokin is fired. Burisma’s problems go away. Joe Biden brags in this video.

Free speech has been indicted. Read this section of the indictment. It acknowledges that Trump has the right to say, even falsely, the results were fraudulent and claim he won the election. That’s protected by the First Amendment. But the indictment says he can’t lie about election fraud. So they must prove Trump didn’t believe his speech. And then, I would think, they’d need to indict every politician who lies (need to build more jails) about election results (Clinton, Kerry, Abrams). The DOJ has criminalized politics. And because, who is to decide the truth, criminalized free speech.

Such ignorant hyperventilating about Jimmy Kimmel. This has nothing to do with “free press”’or the First Amendment. Kimmel didn’t “joke” about Charlie Kirk. He spread a verifiable lie about half of America. In response: - Huge numbers of consumers were appalled. - Two large station owners, Nexstar and Sinclair, said no more. Not in our markets. - His ratings already were in the toilet. - I’m sure, like Colbert, he loses money for ABC. - The FCC, which licenses and regulates public airwaves, rightly looks into whether this serves the “public interest”. - ABC, with The View, a supposed comedy program in Kimmel that not only ignores but denigrates half of America, platforms only the Left, and the disgrace of its “news” division, fails the “public interest”. - I don’t know, but I wouldn’t be surprised, if some semi-sane exec at Disney said “enough of this bullshit”. Jimmy Kimmel is free to speak his mind. He has no right or guarantee to do so on ABC. This isn’t about “comedy”nor free speech…this is about consequences.

Trump needs to file a truckload of defamation suits. It’s not even a close call. Easy to prove “actual malice”.

No locations. No targets. No who. No where. Not “war plans”. Still a mistake. A mistake that has to be corrected. But oversold by Goldberg. This is why credibility matters and Goldberg has none. He framed the hype.

This should be the top story in the country.

This is LAST NIGHT. This man has no place in a legitimate conversation. But…name me a Dem who hasn’t gone down this road of hyperbole that has clearly led to violence and assassination. Name them. I’m genuinely curious to find a sane responsible Dem.

Spare me the “if the other side did it” bothsidesim. 13 Marines were not killed. The SecDef didn’t go missing without telling anyone. The SOS wasn’t a two faced liar to the public like Clinton. Yeah a hack journalist shouldn’t have been included in a convo on Signal. It’s a mistake that needs to be rectified. But I see a VP thoughtfully pushing back while ultimately deferring to the President. A SecDef putting plans together awaiting orders. Miller asking what’s in it for America and how do you make Europe pay for our guarantees of trading routes. A team working toward a conclusion privately the same way they present publicly.

“I almost lost my wife, my 67 corvette, my cat.” Joe Biden feels the pain of Lahaina talking about his kitchen fire.

Got several texts like this yesterday. @PeteHegseth shined for Trump and America.
