10-30-26 Part One - A Good GDP Report
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we begin with positive news. The U.S. economy grew at a robust 3.4% last quarter, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported Thursday. But another report showed inflation worsened last month, and both reports add fuel to the possibility of another Federal Reserve interest rate hike this year. Third-quarter gross domestic product rose 3.4% on an annualized basis, beating expectations and the 2.5% and 2.2% growth recorded in the first and second quarters, respectively. This would mark the largest GDP growth in a year, but it’s also subject to revisions. The figure released by the government was an “advance” estimate of GDP, with two more updates scheduled between now and late December. Also all indications are that The President plans to go back into Iran / audio from Fox News' Harold Ford Jr. explaining his Democratic party's errors / the latest on the Alaska Senate scandal / and the guys discuss their plans for Halloween. Gary will hand out candy, Eric will give out advice.

10-29-26 Part One - The Alaska Senate Scandal
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we begin with the Alaska Senate scandal. Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, told Fox News that Democrats will do "anything" to gain power while addressing reports that the campaign of his Democratic challenger Mary Peltola secretly participated in a months-long process to recruit people with his name to run in the Alaska U.S. Senate race. The New York Times reported Wednesday that Peltola’s campaign, as well as senior aides at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, carried out the alleged election scheme in hopes that voters would be confused by two Dan Sullivans and therefore draw support from the incumbent Republican senator. "This is a scandal at the highest order," Sen. Sullivan said during an interview on "Hannity" Wednesday. Also audio from Mary Peltola from a year ago defying voter corruption / audio from Jake Tapper interviewing a reporter in the case implicating Mary Peltola as being involved in the scheme / and an emergency was declared at a South Carolina nuclear site after a fire erupts the Savannah River National Laboratory.

10-28-26 Part Two - Improving Social Security
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano said "eliminating fraud, waste and abuse" is the "first solution" to protecting the retirement program as concerns persist over its long-term finances. During an appearance on "Big Money in the Morning," Bisignano discussed efforts to improve agency records, modernize operations and safeguard the program. The comments come as Social Security faces a longstanding funding challenge. The program relies primarily on payroll taxes to pay benefits, while its trust funds help cover the difference when costs exceed incoming revenue. Also voters are tiring of Gavin Newsom, yet may not really want change / the latest Democratic polls put Kamala Harris at the top of the list / and Democratic voters overall just don't know who to vote for.
