Your News Talk America, with Jake Smith
Cornyn Loses to Paxton, Iran Nuclear Deal Framework, Pentagon Procurement Reform, and the Abraham Accords Expand — YNTA with Guest Host Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt | May 27, 2026
Descripción
Guest host Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt (USAF, Ret.) leads a three hour panel on the Paxton-Cornyn upset, the Iran nuclear deal framework, Pentagon procurement reform, America's grid crisis, and the expansion of the Abraham Accords. Brigadier General Blaine Holt (USAF, Ret.) guest hosts Your News Talk America for a three hour examination of the major foreign and domestic stories shaping the week. The show opens with the political shockwave of Ken Paxton's nearly 28 point primary win over Senator John Cornyn in Texas, the third Republican lawmaker primaried out in ten days, and what it signals about the GOP base, the path through the midterms, and the fight over the SAVE Act and the Senate filibuster. Trump political strategist Rick Gates and Newsmax anchor and Washington Times editor Kelly Sadler break down where the administration's agenda stands and what listeners should watch in Congress. In the second hour, the conversation turns to national security. Maj. Gen. Cameron Holt (USAF, Ret.), former Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for contracting, joins for a deep dive on Pentagon procurement reform, the 4,500 pages of defense acquisition regulations weighing down the system, why the United States is sending million dollar missiles against three hundred thousand dollar drones, and how supply chain warfare has become a frontline domain in great power competition. Former Department of Energy official James Campos of Red Post Energy Futures follows with a hard look at America's grid crisis, the natural gas turbine shortage, data center power demand, and the strategy required to keep the country energy independent. The final hour examines a draft framework reportedly circulated by Iranian state media to end the conflict and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, the role of Lloyd's of London and shipping insurance in the chokepoint standoff, and the expansion of the Abraham Accords to potentially include Turkey and Pakistan. Susan Kokinda of Promethean Action and Middle East expert Dr. Walid Phares of the Transatlantic Parliamentary Group join the discussion. The hour closes with Salute the Troops honoring United States Marine Corps Captain Gary Lloyd England.
