  • Deportations Being Hijacked by Bizarre Tax Policy | 5/13/25

    Deportations Being Hijacked by Bizarre Tax Policy | 5/13/25
    May 13 2025
    Every bit of political capital should have been spent from day one on securing the authorities and resources for mass removals. Instead, it’s been hijacked by tax policy. I first discuss the tax provisions, which are random, bizarre, and, in some cases, pure socialism. We’re joined by RJ Hauman, president of the National Immigration Center for Enforcement, who updates us on his concern that the tax focus has overshadowed deportations. He believes that too much of the budgetary scoring is being used for tax provisions or even wasteful border and defense provisions when the key is ICE funding for detention and removal operations. He is also fighting to keep out bad provisions, such as the “gold cards” and paying illegal aliens a bonus to leave. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The FBI Swamp Is Not Being Drained | 5/12/25

    The FBI Swamp Is Not Being Drained | 5/12/25
    May 12 2025
    We begin with updates on reconciliation. Not a single transformational provision is in the bill, and there are numerous problematic provisions. It codifies Biden’s levels of Medicaid spending, which negates Trump’s entire strategy of bringing down prescription drug prices. The more we print money to subsidize the scam, the more it bids up prices. Next, we’re joined by former FBI whistleblower Steve Friend, who has a sobering analysis of what has and hasn’t been done at his former agency under the new administration. Friend raises concerns that too many bad actors have not been fired while at the same time the whistleblowers have not been restored. He believes that its new leadership is mistakenly taking a “hearts and minds” approach to the swamp rather than orchestrating a violent takeover. He believes that instead the FBI leadership needs to take the teeth of enforcement out of the FBI or focus its purview on a narrow set of complex international crimes. If we fail to do so, Friend believes that coupled with AI technology and existing FISA 702 authorities, the FBI will be a worse nightmare than we could even imagine under the next Democrat president.

  • Why the Courts Continue to Be a One-Way Street for Conservatives | 5/9/25

    Why the Courts Continue to Be a One-Way Street for Conservatives | 5/9/25
    May 9 2025
    The very RINOs who are undermining Trump’s agenda are bizarrely securing his endorsement. We begin by showing once again how the endorsements are killing any effort to pass a MAGA agenda. I also comment on the latest policy jockeying with the reconciliation bill. Next, we’re joined by constitutional law professor Josh Blackman for another discussion about judicial supremacy, recent political court cases, and the trajectory of their outcomes. Professor Blackman is not very optimistic in the long run that the Roberts court will fundamentally clip the wings of radical lower courts on enough cases. He offers some fascinating examples of hypocrisy with Roberts rushing in to overturn conservative lower courts while using the emergency shadow docket to keep terrible lower-court rulings alive, even when those issues are pressing. He also believes we are about to get screwed on birthright citizenship at the Supreme Court. The only solution is for other branches to grab back that power. The Florida attorney general is providing us with the test case. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Enough Excuses: Lead or Get Out of the Way | 5/8/25

    Enough Excuses: Lead or Get Out of the Way | 5/8/25
    May 8 2025
    MAGA Inc. claims to support all of our causes — from deportations and cutting spending to medical freedom, diminishing the FBI, and primarying RINOS. So why don’t you actually lead? Instead, in case after case, Trump is subverting those causes, and all we get are excuses and low expectations. If Trump feels stymied by the courts, he either needs to take a page out of the Florida attorney general’s book or demand that his priorities be placed in reconciliation. Next, I delve into the Casey Means nomination for surgeon general and the disturbing trend of random people and policies popping up at HHS and also other areas like foreign policy and how this ties back to Tucker Carlson, Don Jr., and Arab Qatari money.

  • Why Don’t We Focus on Legislatures and Governors | 5/7/25

    Why Don’t We Focus on Legislatures and Governors | 5/7/25
    May 7 2025
    I begin with the perfect parable to explain the shortsightedness of the Right in ignoring the opportunities conservatives have in deep-red states. While we have done a few good things in a few states, for the most part, we have failed to pass transformational legislation on most of our priorities. As an example, we focus today on Tennessee and are joined by Gary Humble, executive director of Tennessee Stands. He shows how most of the important bills on immigration and medical freedom were blocked by RINOs and the governor, while they passed terrible bills to abolish local conventions in favor of open primaries. You will come away from today’s episode with a full understanding of where things stand in almost every red state, the potential that exists, and how we will continue to fail if we don’t create organizations like Tennessee Stands and if we fail to reform the primary process.

  • Anarcho-Tyranny: National ID for Citizens, Endless Due Process for Illegal Aliens | 5/6/25

    Anarcho-Tyranny: National ID for Citizens, Endless Due Process for Illegal Aliens | 5/6/25
    May 6 2025
    The entire congressional agenda is about sophistry and small-ball items with no narrative or vision to take to the voters. Yet when it comes to Real ID, something all voters, including liberals, hate, suddenly there is a rush to implement it after 20 years of delays. We’re joined today by Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Mo.), who is one of the few members raising concerns about the Trump administration’s implementation of Real ID. As someone who follows the issue of gun registries, Burlison is concerned that a Democrat president will turn Real ID into a mass surveillance state and eventually use it as a global ID that could lead to policies like vaccine passports. This is part of a broader anarcho-tyranny whereby our government casts a wide net around civil liberties under the guise of security but then fails to actually deliver when it comes to security issues. Burlison also warns that leadership is telling the RINOs the spending cuts are not real or will be gutted by the Senate. Finally, we discuss the disturbing decision from the Trump DOJ to keep Biden’s dangerous abortion pill regulation that turns every mailbox into an abortion clinic and plans to fight red states seeking to overturn it.

  • What’s Up with RFK Jr. and the COVID Shots? | 5/5/25

    What’s Up with RFK Jr. and the COVID Shots? | 5/5/25
    May 5 2025
    We cannot allow ourselves to be distracted by political squirrels and symbolism while losing the issues on substance. Trump needs to lead by calling policy plays on judicial reform in reconciliation. Next, we’re joined by hero ENT specialist Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, who is warning about the pattern of underperformance both at the federal level and in red states on rectifying the mistakes of COVID and banning the COVID shots. Why are the COVID shots still on the CDC’s childhood schedule? Why is there more funding into flu vaccines? Bowden boldly asserts that MAHA was designed as a redirection movement to focus on dyes in food rather than the 800-pound gorilla. Dr. Bowden also updates us on state based initiatives and how the Texas Medical Board is still destroying her career for trying to treat COVID patients in distress. How is there no national movement to pressure Governor Abbott (R) and Texas leaders to pass reforms to the medical tyranny in what should be a red state? Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Sen. Ron Johnson: The Man Standing Up to Uniparty Debt, Inflation, and Bankruptcy | 5/2/25

    Sen. Ron Johnson: The Man Standing Up to Uniparty Debt, Inflation, and Bankruptcy | 5/2/25
    May 2 2025
    The way to fulfill the mandate on inflation and invasion is to make sure our pressure on the White House is equal to the counter-pressure from the special interests. I discuss how Trump must champion judicial reform in budget reconciliation and how exactly it can be done. Also, why is it always Chip Roy having to fight every battle in the House? On the Senate side, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) is leading the fight for a better budget reconciliation bill. He joins us today to lay out his vision and strategy for re-focusing budget reconciliation to actually cut spending. He lays out the problem and the solution in great detail and calls on Trump to lead. The current one-bill strategy was a mistake on multiple fronts, and the senator is promising that no amount of pressure will get him to relent. Learn more about your ad choices.
