Summary
<p>Sean Hannity opens the hour with a sharp update on the Iran standoff, arguing that the U.S. blockade is giving Tehran a preview of what permanent economic collapse would look like if it refuses President Trump’s terms. He also launches into a fiery critique of Pope Leo and the Catholic Church’s silence on Iran’s human-rights abuses, terrorism, and anti-Israel violence, while condemning what he sees as selective moral outrage from the West. This episode centers on Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, nuclear pressure, and the growing clash between Trump’s strategy and global religious and political critics.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
