Mich St Honors Pearl Harbor Vet.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span>Paul Rieckhoff sits down with former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), Air National Guard combat veteran and star of the new film &#8220;The Last Republican,&#8221; now on YouTube. They dive deep into the escalating Iran war\u2014with no clear endgame, potential boots on the ground, civilian casualties including a possible U.S. strike on an Iranian girls&#8217; school, and Congress failing to check Trump&#8217;s power via War Powers resolutions. Kinzinger warns Trump may get bored and abandon the mess, analyzes threats like ICE under new head Markwayne Mullin, Cuba invasion risks, drone dangers at home, GOP corruption, and the urgent need for a pro-democracy coalition. He discusses his future (hint: considering independence), Ukraine&#8217;s aid offers, and why Democrats must fight harder now. Plus, hope amid chaos: Paralympics, World Baseball Classic, and building an independent movement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-WATCH <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rL9KHKHqoYc\"><span>full video of this episode here<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-Check out <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/@adamkinzinger\"><span>Adam\u2019s SubStack <a href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/@adamkinzinger\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/substack.com\/@adamkinzinger<\/a> here<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-Watch <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HmL_2PKL9o4\"><span>the documentary The Last Republican on YouTube for free here<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-Learn more about Paul\u2019s work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/independentveteransofamerica.org\/\"><span>Independent Veterans of America<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-Learn more about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/americanveteransforukraine.org\/\"><span>American Veterans for Ukraine here<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>-Learn more about<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/theheadstrongproject.org\/\"><span> The Headstrong Project <\/span><\/a><span>for Veterans, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.taps.org\/\"><span>Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS)<\/span><\/a><span>, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.va.gov\/health-care\/health-needs-conditions\/mental-health\/\"><span>Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area<\/span><\/a><span>.
