  Trump's GOP COLLAPSE & the AI Grift: America Is Choking on Two Idols. |11/13/26 13.11.2026 57m

  When a movement refuses to turn away from political or technological idols, it ends up consuming the very destruction it created. Today, I lay out why conservatives have reached a true "Flight 93 moment" — that unless top right-leaning leaders publicly call on Trump to resign now, Republicans face a historic electoral wipeout that could hand Democrats an unchecked supermajority. I also break down the parallel implosion in Big Tech and the AI economy and how the speculative AI economy caused the Microsoft outages and AI-generated workplace failures. Will we learn to turn to God and not idols?  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  She Won by 51 POINTS! The Conservative Blueprint Republicans Are Ignoring |11/12/26 12.11.2026 1h 2m

  It’s time to ditch D.C. and focus on building a local grassroots movement. It’s also time to ditch shameless grifters and talkers and elevate doers. A perfect example of this? Our guest, Oklahoma Treasurer-elect Cindy Byrd. As other candidates won by slim margins in this solid red state, Cindy won by 51 points, perhaps the biggest candidate divergence of any statewide office in the nation. This is not by accident. As Republicans struggle with economic failures, corruption, inflation, and a growing disconnect with voters, Cindy Byrd offers a radically different model. As the best state auditor in the nation — DOGE before it was cool — she fought for taxpayers and rooted out  waste and fraud in a way that connected with voters. We examine how fiscal honesty, local accountability, and rooting out government fraud resonate with everyday voters. From confronting skyrocketing property taxes and Big Tech data center subsidies to exposing hundreds of millions of dollars in Medicaid and SNAP eligibility failures, Byrd lays out a practical road map for building a serious conservative movement from the local level up.

  GOP COLLAPSE: Republicans Lost 569 State Legislative Seats! |11|11|26 11.11.2026 1h 9m

  Republican influencers still don’t realize the magnitude, cause, and implication of the GOP collapse — and the consequences could reshape American politics for years to come. I’m joined by Chaz Nuttycombe, founder of State Navigate and one of America's leading state legislative political analysts, for an extraordinary deep dive into the shocking legislative results. Republicans lost an astonishing 569 state legislative seats. Democrats gained more than 550, flipped 12 legislative chambers, broke five Republican trifectas, and established seven new Democrat trifectas. Chaz breaks down the numbers, explains where Republicans collapsed, identifies the states Democrats are poised to dominate, and reveals why the GOP's electoral problems may be far deeper than its leadership understands. Anyone who takes time to understand this would realize why sticking with this current GOP is a suicide pact and why we need an entirely new movement. Learn more about your ad choices.

  America's Rigged Economy Is About to BREAK — Here's What Comes Next |11|10|26 10.11.2026 1h 13m

  The American economy is no longer a free market — it is a closed racket of venture socialism, Federal Reserve market distortions, and privatized totalitarianism. That is what voters are rebelling against, yet neither party gets it. I’m joined by political economist and author Charles Hugh Smith to discuss his new book, "The Revolution No One Sees Coming," and to unpack the mathematical brick wall confronting our financial system. We cover everything from privatized totalitarianism and the AI bubble to the moral decay of the system and the death of the American dream. Neither party fully understands that the racket is coming to an end, and there will be pain all around that none of them will escape. Our job is to ensure that the revolution against corruption and concentrated power will restore freedom, decentralize power, and rebuild a genuine free market — not usher in another form of authoritarianism.

  Trump Just DOUBLED DOWN on Everything That Destroyed Republicans. |11|09|26 09.11.2026 57m

  The entire right-wing media apparatus, think tanks, and online influencers have learned nothing from an unprecedented electoral collapse. Instead of confronting the rot, "Con Inc." is doubling down on failure, excusing corruption, and refusing to see that the movement is in an existential chokehold. I pull no punches on why Donald Trump must step aside, how the Trump administration aligned with an unsustainable AI data center grift while overlooking major China-linked corruption, and why the party must be rebuilt from the bottom up.  Meanwhile, the online conservative establishment continues fighting meaningless Twitter wars, obsessing over secondary issues, and protecting Trump rather than confronting the fundamental failures of the movement.

  On the Ground: The Dystopian AI Data Center Scam Crushing Real America. |11|06|26 06.11.2026 1h 13m

  The multi-trillion-dollar AI narrative and the inflated housing market are colliding — and the fallout will dwarf the 2008 financial crisis. If we don’t change brands as conservatives, we will suffer another electoral collapse. I’m joined by housing expert Melody Wright after traveling across the country to investigate what the media and political establishment refuse to cover: the reality of hyperscale data centers, suburban destruction, and manufactured bubble economics. From Stargate in Abilene to Vantage sites outside San Antonio, Melody reveals the boots-on-the-ground truth: unpermitted mini-power plants running in residential backyards, deafening noise and chemical fumes next to community pools, skyrocketing local rents, dry water tables, and ghost projects sitting half-finished as banks quietly dump billions in distressed data center debt. We show why voters across red states revolted, which bubble will officially burst first (AI infrastructure or housing inventory), why a 2008-style bailout will not save this economy, and how the bipartisan establishment created a ticking financial time bomb on the American public's dime. I also update you on the latest insanity of the circle jerk, fake Right and how their reaction to the electoral collapse they caused but refused to see is even worse than the collapse itself.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  The Con Inc. Trump Delusion Continues. |11|05|26 05.11.2026 1h 19m

  Republicans just suffered a devastating electoral collapse — and the MAGA influencer class still doesn't understand WHY. I’m joined by former New Hampshire state Rep. Melissa Blasek (R), executive director of Rebuild New Hampshire, for an explosive discussion about the Republican Party's growing disconnect with ordinary Americans. Drawing on her experience as a grassroots activist and quintessential suburban mother in one of America's whitest states, Blasek explains why the GOP's electoral problems have far less to do with conservative policy than its increasingly toxic brand, image, and political leadership. We discuss how the very clowns who destroyed our image while accomplishing less on policy seek to double down on everything that got us to this point.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  Will Conservatives Allow Trump to Continue as an Electoral Albatross? |11|04|26 04.11.2026 1h 9m

  The results from the 2026 midterm elections represent an unprecedented model collapse in modern political history. While "Con Inc." commentators rush to defend Trump or run cover for failed leadership, I deliver the hundred-proof, uncensored truth: Republicans didn't just lose — the scrimmage line shifted 20 points toward Democrats nationwide, handing them 56 Senate seats, 30 governorships, and control of critical legislative chambers from Texas to New Hampshire — all because we are so anchored to one capricious man. But the biggest question isn't simply WHY Republicans lost. It's whether the conservative movement will finally learn the lessons — or keep repeating the same mistakes. I offer the most comprehensive post-election analysis on the internet, breaking down the Republican electoral catastrophe, the collapse of red America, and the devastating consequences of allowing Donald Trump to become an ALBATROSS around the neck of the entire conservative movement.

  A Historic Mandate Flushed Down the Toilet. |11|03|26 03.11.2026 1h 19m

  Today is the closing act of this current 2024 electoral era. I offer my final comments before the ballots are counted to demonstrate how Republicans flushed their mandate down the toilet. In order to understand the lost mandate in its proper context, the remainder of the show is a replay of my raw reaction to the 2024 Trump victory as it happened and my outline at the time for how to properly utilize the mandate.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  The Right Has Lost Its Vision. The Path to Conservative Renewal. |11|02|26 02.11.2026 1h 1m

  The Republican Party has suffered a lost decade of innovation, courage, and core principles. In this urgent breakdown, I expose how blind idolatry of Donald Trump paralyzed the American conservative movement, distracted an entire generation of potential leaders, and allowed the Left to outflank the GOP on foundational economic and quality-of-life issues. While the political establishment chases daily body-part riffs, golden ballroom galas, and media sideshows, the American people are drowning under corporate monopolies, unaffordable health care, toxic chronic illness, techno-feudalism, and unchecked globalism. Winning an election means nothing if you have no vision for what to do with power. While we await the final results of the election, I begin the brutal postmortem and deliver the definitive 10-point agenda required to scrap the golden calf, rebuild the grassroots, and rescue American civilization.

  Why Conservatives Need an INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT or Face Annihilation in 2028 |10|30|26 30.10.2026 1h 3m

  The American Right faces a fundamental political dilemma: It cannot continue defending Donald Trump's baggage, the Republican establishment, and the special interests that have helped create America's economic problems while expecting a different electoral outcome. And simply anointing JD Vance as the next Republican presidential nominee won't solve the problem. I analyze JD’s town hall with voters to show why he is not up for the task, nor could he win because of the Trump baggage trap. From inflation and housing affordability to corporate monopolies, Big Tech, data centers, government corruption, health care, and the influence of special interests, conservatives need an economic and political message that transcends traditional party loyalties. But what would that movement actually look like? I’m joined by Rebecca Bextel, Constitution Party candidate for Wyoming governor, to examine Wyoming as a real-world case study. A lifelong Republican activist who broke with her party to challenge the Republican nominee (who is basically a Democrat), Bextel explains why she believes Wyoming voters deserve something beyond business-as-usual Republican politics. The message for the Right is clear: Reform or die! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  Former Freedom Caucus Chair Bob Good Drops the Hammer on Trump's GOP. |10|29|26 29.10.2026 1h 19m

  How did we get to a point where the conservative movement could be so listless that it elevates liberals and globalists who promote everything they say they hate while spitting on those who fight for their stated values? It’s because for the past 10 years, everything has been about mimicking the literal mannerisms of one man. I sit down with former House Freedom Caucus Chairman Bob Good for a revealing discussion about Donald Trump, the Republican Party's identity crisis, and how conservatives can rebuild a movement that has lost its sense of direction. Bob Good knows firsthand what happens when loyalty to the president becomes the defining test of Republican politics. After challenging establishment leadership in Congress and serving as chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, Good lost his 2024 Republican primary to a challenger endorsed by Trump.  That should have been a warning sign, but instead, Con Inc. plowed forward like nothing happened. We explain how that mindset has led to an impending electoral disaster that might not end with next Tuesday’s election. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  How Do Conservatives Rebuild With Trump Still President for 26 More Months? |10|28|26 28.10.2026 57m

  How can conservatives rebuild the movement when Donald Trump will remain president for another 26 months? That's the million-dollar question nobody on the right will answer.   Today, I explain how Trump has perfectly managed to turn off both educated and blue collar rural voters at the same time, which allowed Democrats to run to the right of Republicans.  The problem is he will continue plodding the same path for the next 26 months, which will lock us into his image, and his primary endorsements, while ensuring we lose yet another generation election.  For years, the right accepted a code of silence, defending corrupt endorsements, reckless spending, big tech data center takeovers, and aristopopulist rhetoric under the false promise that "we just have to beat the Democrats." Now, red states like Mississippi and South Carolina are slipping away, working-class voters are crushed by inflation while party leaders brag about Mar-a-Lago wealth, and the establishment is already trying to run the status quo into 2028.  We need to build a broader, independent movement around issues such as government accountability, medical freedom, Big Tech, data centers, property rights, and the growing influence of special interests.  The longer we wait to do the surgery, the more Democrats will do it for us.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  Why the 2nd Amendment Movement Wins While the Right Keeps Losing |10|27|26 27.10.2026 1h 10m

  While the broader conservative movement faces political retreat, compromise, and election-cycle burnout, the Second Amendment movement has delivered relentless, generational victories — from 29 constitutional carry states to dismantling historic National Firearms Act taxes on suppressors. How do they do it? I sit down with Erich Pratt, executive vice president of Gun Owners of America, to reveal the uncompromising "secret sauce" behind their success: prioritizing issues over party loyalty, leveraging aggressive grassroots pressure, fighting on every policy, political, and electoral front, and holding both parties accountable. Pratt breaks down the recent legal triumphs allowing Americans to purchase suppressors and short-barreled firearms without ATF tax stamps, while exposing the ongoing sabotage inside the Department of Justice, where career bureaucrats continue defending unconstitutional Biden-era rules. We also cover the weaponized digital surveillance, warrantless tracking through Flock cameras outside gun shops, the federal push to warehouse dealer records, and the unconscionable arrest of an active-duty National Guardsman in Washington, D.C., under local prosecutors. Discover how true no-compromise activism works — and why this exact playbook must be applied to save America beyond the ballot box. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  The GOP’s Day of Reckoning: It’s Time to Build Something New |10|23|26 23.10.2026 1h 3m

  It’s time for conservatives to move beyond Trump and rebuild the Republican Party (or something else) from the ground up.  I deliver the uncensored truth that conservative media refuses to utter: What is our plan for the day after the election?  With Trump’s net approval rating sinking to -21.7—three times worse than the 2018 midterms—red states from Texas and Kansas to Ohio and North Carolina are facing an unprecedented collapse on the scrimmage line. While Democrats campaign against Big Tech data centers and utility rate hikes, GOP leadership canceled primaries, elevated corporate shills, and left grassroots patriots stranded.  If conservatives do not completely disentangle from Donald Trump, reject the corporatist grift, and build a truly independent movement, there will be nothing left to rebuild.

  Big Tech Is DESTROYING Red States — and Republicans Are Paying the Price |10|22|26 22.10.2026 59m

  The AI data-center bubble is creating the next financial crisis — and costing Republicans control of red America. I explain the debt bubble and how it is beginning to pop, the role of government subsidies and tax incentives, and how Trump and Republicans built the greatest financial bubble that will pop the economy, as well as their political control of some red states. The AI bubble burst will become another subprime-style financial crisis,  as the losses spread to retirement accounts, pensions, and the wider financial system. Sadly, all conservatives are now viewed by voters as exponentially more in favor of Big Tech than Democrats.  In case you are struggling to understand why Trump is being forced to rally in deep-red states to prevent them from falling, today’s show has you covered.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  France Is Burning: How the Left & Islam Formed a Deadly Alliance |10|21|26 21.10.2026 1h 5m

  Is America "half a step behind" the violent riots tearing across France and Europe? I sit down with Adam Starzynski, editor at Visegrad24, to expose the terrifying "red-green alliance" fueling the destruction of Western Europe. Starzynski breaks down how radical left-wing communists and Islamic jihadists are exploiting the economic misery of young Europeans to orchestrate mass looting, burn down schools, and conquer French cities. While the media blames social grievances, Starzynski reveals the deeper existential threat — and why the right-wing movements in both Europe and America are currently failing to stop it. In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore how there are obvious economic grievances, housing pressures, and youth unemployment plaguing the younger generation. However, the immigration and political radicalization have created the perfect storm for the jihadists to further cement their conquest of Europe. If the U.S. doesn't wake up to this demographic and economic perfect storm, American cities will be the next to burn. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  The Government Is LYING About Inflation |10|20|26 20.10.2026 1h 13m

  Are government inflation numbers telling the whole story? Why does life feel so much more expensive even when official statistics suggest inflation isn’t quite as bad as you think? And why is the American dream becoming increasingly difficult for young Americans to achieve? I’m joined by Tom Elliott, founder of the Reality Index and American Dream Index, to examine the growing affordability crisis and the gap between government inflation statistics and the financial reality facing American families. Elliott explains how changes to the Consumer Price Index, including the use of owners' equivalent rent, quality adjustments, and substitution, can produce inflation figures that fail to capture important aspects of the rising cost of living. His Reality Index attempts to measure changes in the prices Americans actually face, while the American Dream Index examines how much a middle-class lifestyle costs relative to a typical worker's income. It’s become clear that ever since the feds took us off the gold standard and then implemented loose money policies, they have an agenda to cover up just how much inflation they are inducing.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  Conservatives Must Stop Playing Checkers: 9 Questions That Will Decide the GOP's Future |10|19|26 19.10.2026 59m

  Conservatives must stop playing political checkers and start playing chess. Today I pose nine critical political questions the conservative movement must confront after the election if Republicans ever hope to break their cycle of failure and build a winning strategy for the future. If the conservative movement keeps relying on Trump’s image, the same candidates, strategies, and political machinery, what reason is there to expect a different result? As Republicans face a staggering loss, it’s time to ask the uncomfortable questions, challenge the status quo, and start thinking several moves ahead. Just like bad performance from monopolies requires more choice and competition to better the outcome, we need to open up more competition on the Right to refine a better outcome. Or … we can continue the failure theater for the rest of our lives so the political grifters can get rich off feigning perpetual outrage over issues they plan to ignore.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  How Big Tech Monopolies Are Weaponizing AI Against Human Liberty  |10/16/26 16.10.2026 1h 11m

  Is Big Tech's version of AI deployment really the product of free-market innovation — or is it built on copyright theft, government subsidies, and special legal protections? I sit down with Michael McClellan, an attorney involved in litigation over alleged AI-related copyright infringement, to examine the legal, moral, and constitutional questions about AI chatbots that conservatives cannot afford to ignore. He exposes the disturbing business model behind AI chatbots and explains why conservatives must fight for property rights, individual liberty, human flourishing, and genuine free-market capitalism over crony protections for these monopolies. AI companies promise to revolutionize society. But what happens when that technology depends on copyrighted works allegedly taken without permission, government favoritism, and a regulatory system that allows powerful corporations to operate under different rules from everyone else?  You get bad products and even worse outcomes. In this wide-ranging discussion, we cover everything from Section 230 indemnity to how conservatives should approach liability and regulation and the hypocritical gaslighting from the industry about the need to “beat China.” Learn more about your ad choices.
