We're seeing it happen all over the country. And the anti-ICE mobs, well, they're anything but organic. So who is financing them? That coming up as well. But first, I want to tell you about an amazing opportunity right now that I'm involved in and I cannot wait for you to take advantage of it. I want you to take some incredible courses at Hillsdale College for free. You may not know this, but Hillsdale College has been influencing conservatives like myself for decades. They had a huge impact on Charlie Kirk's life. And even as memorial service, they talked about how Charlie took class after class after class at Hillsdale College.
Ben Ferguson 1:47
Hillsdale College is now offering for you, the listeners of this show, more than 40 free, I want to say that again, free online courses. That's right, more than 40 free online courses.

How is the White House communicating with Iran amidst the protests?

Ben Ferguson 2:00
You can learn about the works of C.S. Lewis, the stories in the book of Genesis, the meaning of the U.S. Constitution, the rise and fall of the Roman Republic, or the history of the ancient Christian church, all with Hillsdale College's free online courses. Right now, I'm personally taking the Constitution 101. In this course, you're going to explore the design and the purpose of the Constitution, the challenges it faced... During the Civil War and how it has been undermined for more than a century by radical progressives and liberals. This 12 lecture course is self-paced. It's another reason why I love it. So start whenever and wherever. In our country, we need more Americans like you and I that understand the Constitution and can defend the freedom of the American people against the left and their increasing encroachments on our God-given rights.

A channel for diplomacy they also made clear is still open, with Iran taking, quote, a far different tone in private discussions with President Trump's special envoy, Steve Witzkoff, and the press secretary, Caroline Levitt, confirming that, saying, quote, One thing President Trump is very good at is always keeping all of his options on the table.

And airstrikes would be one of the many, many options that are on the table for the commander in chief. Levitt added that diplomacy is always the first option for this president. saying, quote, what you're hearing publicly from the Iranian regime is quite different from what the message the administration is receiving privately.
