DOJ Probes Alaska's Second Dan Sullivan | Patrick Stewart Dies at 86 | AOTMA | 10/30/26

Aaron McIntire covers reports that the Justice Department has intensified a criminal investigation into Alaska's second Senate candidate named Dan Sullivan after a New York Times report on Mary Peltola's campaign, plus President Trump's call for prosecutions, while Alaska's Supreme Court has already ruled the candidacy can stay on the ballot. He plays Barack Obama's campaign pitch on child care and health premiums, and covers the death of actor Patrick Stewart, 86, who died Wednesday after a brief journey with Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia. Aaron also highlights former NFL quarterback Alex Smith telling the Bussin' With the Boys podcast how rehab at the military's Center for the Intrepid helped him overcome shame over his leg injury. In AOTMA, he answers listener questions on YouTube video quality, whether young voters are skipping polls, how likely Republicans are to hold both chambers of Congress, the America Next PAC ad, and the courts, and closes with a faith montage from the World Series champion Milwaukee Brewers.
