BREAKING: U.S. Seizes Iranian Ship | Deadly Shootings & SC Debate (Ep 714)


Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

A major escalation overseas — and a troubling weekend here at home.

Donald Trump revealed that U.S. forces seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship after disabling it in the Strait of Hormuz — a dramatic move that raises tensions between the United States, Iran, and Israel. We break down what led to this confrontation, what it means for global shipping lanes, and what could come next.

Meanwhile, back in the U.S., authorities in Louisiana have identified a suspect in a horrific attack that left eight children dead — a tragedy that is sending shockwaves across the country. And in another developing story, five people were wounded near the University of Iowa after violence broke out following a large altercation.

Here in South Carolina, State Representative John McCravy joins us to highlight the work of pregnancy resource centers — including recent events featuring Tim Tebow supporting the mission of centers like Crossroads Women’s Center.

Plus, a growing debate over transparency in government — should lawsuits and settlements involving public entities be open for review? We take a closer look at an editorial raising questions about negotiations involving Greenville County Council.
