## Resource

Alternate Current Radio and 21st Century Wire present: Sunday Wire with Patrick Henningsen This week the SUNDAY WIRE broadcasts on Alternate Current Radio , with host Patrick Henningsen as we chronicle the imperial train wreck of Trump’s America – putting into historical context the fall of latter day Rome, and how Israel has drained the United States of its power and influence on the world stage by leading Trump on a leash into a disastrous war. Also, we raise the alarm about Trump and Hegseth’s intimidation of the press and potential arrest of Tucker Carlson as a political target by a regime in Washington that’s now imploding in public view. Later in the Overdrive segment, we’re joined by teammates Bryan “Hesher” McClain and Adam “Ruckus” Clark, for deeper comment and analysis on this week’s geopolitical development.
