Trump Deadline Passed—Ceasefire Deal Struck | Fraud, EV Controversy & More (Ep 705)


Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Big developments today — from the Middle East to California corruption to a major economic battle right here in South Carolina.

After an 8 p.m. Eastern deadline, a major breakthrough: the Strait of Hormuz is set to reopen as part of a two-week “double-sided ceasefire” involving Iran. We’ll break down what this agreement actually means, what happens next, and whether this is a real step toward peace — or just a temporary pause in a much larger conflict involving Iran and U.S. interests.

Meanwhile, a shocking fraud scandal out of California. Funds that were supposed to help vulnerable communities were allegedly diverted into luxury lifestyles — high-end homes, expensive cars, private jets, and even cosmetic procedures. It’s raising serious questions about oversight, accountability, and how taxpayer dollars are being handled.

Back here in South Carolina, controversy is growing over the Scout Motors electric vehicle plant. State leaders are now pointing fingers, with economic development officials blaming the Department of Natural Resources for massive cost overruns — as lawmakers debate whether to commit even more taxpayer money to the project.

And joining us today, Congressman William Timmons weighs in on:

  • The Iran conflict and ceasefire deal
  • The ongoing government shutdown battle in Washington
  • Key issues facing the U.S. House right now
