U.S. Navy Pilots REBUKE Trump Admin's MILITARY Lie - MeidasTouch and VALOR Media Network [View all]
Rebecca Bennett is the eighteenth woman in the history of the U.S. Navy to qualify as a test pilot. At a moment when this administration keeps questioning whether women belong at the front of America's military, her story is its own answer.
Last week, Rebecca turned the mic on Maura. This week the roles reverse. Maura sits down with her co-host to trace the path that shaped her—from small-town Texas, to Navy ROTC and the hardest engineering program she could find, to flying helicopters through the Strait of Hormuz, to becoming one of only eighteen women ever to qualify as a U.S. Navy test pilot, to building a life of leadership and service beyond the uniform.
This isn't a campaign interview. It's a conversation about service, leadership, sacrifice, and why these stories matter now more than ever. - 07/08/2026.
