Daily news and media analysis from the CONK! News service at conk.com. CONK! Editor-in-Chief Jim Peters brings a conservative/libertarian perspective to the news of the day, the stupid people who make it and the boneheaded media that (allegedly) covers it - everything you need to know in about 10 minutes. We make fun of liberals, so you don't have to (TM). Available at 4 AM Eastern/1 AM Pacific each weekday. NOTE: This feed also includes the flagship Saturday edition, CONK! Weekly.
Hank Rearden says goodbye to listeners as he returns to spending more time in his business life. On the way out, he encourages everyone to brace for the shut down, and realize that the Menendez drama is just a distraction from the Biden crime reports. And as you listen to the Republican debates, remember that Hank says, "Vote Democrat. Finish the Job!"
Hank Rearden explains his new slogan: Vote Democrat and Finish the Job! When our already dysfunctional government hits the rock bottom of citizen tolerance, will the pain finally bring change?
In this special classroom edition of The Rearden Report, Prof. Hank tells us the easy way to learn about RICO, and we don't mean that guy who sells fake Rolexes out of the trunk of his Chevy. When Fani wags her finger at Trump, you'll learn everything you need to follow the Biden Famiily criminal trials. Learn about RICO and then decide if the 20 shell companies funnelling at least $10 million for corruptly using government influence isn't the r to the i to the c to the o.
Hank Rearden points out that when the government overcharges taxpayers, we get no relief, but when criminals steal and don't pay sales tax on their loot, no one from government makes a peep. So what about the big Trump indictments show? Will it explain all the legalese we need to know when Biden indictments come down? And we could all benefit from a break from government grift if the next president would create the Employee Freedom Reform Act. Learn what that means.
Hank Rearden brings the revenue revue to the podcast stage. The less-than-stellar USWNT performance undercuts the whining about pay, especially when you look at the millions that this one team has in the bank. And where are the California Department of Revenue collection agents who should be defending a Stockton business owner who tried to prevent a cheat from selling cigarettes without paying the sales tax? And finally, credit is given where credit is due regarding the outrageous interest rates of credit card companies. Just tap here for the full story.
Hank Rearden points out that just as the US Women's soccer prima donnas have shown their true selves, Joe's grift as VP is coming into full view. If you believe a Congressman worth $253 million who claims Joe was just chatting about the weather, then you'll belief that Yellow Freight closing it's doors has nothing to do with avoiding repayment of $700 million in loans of taxpayer dollars. The Teamsters say it's to avoid Union problems. Hank says all C-level suits in publicly traded corporations should be unionized just to get a feel for what that's like.
Larry Newman, Don Zorro, Hank Rearden and Tim Conaway invade the joint carte-and-left-wing plot called illegal immigration to talk about what is really going on this side of the border. From ancient Congresspeople to overstuffed bureaucrats, the panel looks for solutions instead of problems, because, well, Joe, Kamala and gang are right in our faces.Fortunately, we are seeing "Zorroisms," the cracks in the shaky facade of of wokesters.
Hank Rearden knows that the lazy, useless Federal Government uses the old divide-and-conquer by keeping the all-seeing eye on us while they do whatever they want with no scrutiny at all. So as the Biden Lie Festival continues, what meaningless concocted news stories will rise up to distract us -- the drowned chef, or the biter-in-chief? Tune in and find out who can bust up the DNC/RNC stranglehold on American freedom (hint: It could be you!)
Admiring how RFK Jr won't let the lamestream media twist his words into being evil, Hank Rearden sends listeners to the Right way to get your news at Conk.News. He also unleashes on the two-tiered justice system, and the upside down press that chases squirrels like MTG and Hunter B instead of focusing on the real news. Is the end near, or are we jsut getting fat and soft without consequences?
Why is the media sniffing around the cocaine story? Is it because the Biden Grift Shop, er, White House wants to avoid the cluster bomb announcement? Or maybe they just don't want do ask "irresponsible" questions. It's all part of the socialist left's plan to indoctrinate everyone to group think, minus the actual thinking part. Listen to The Rearden Report to find out what's really going on.
Hank Rearden reports that even the liberal media is starting to question the sleight-of-hand to distract from the Federal government's oppressive tactics leaking through the cracks in Biden's administration. As more people see the pieces of the puzzle to assemble the real picture, what action will they take? Who will be the disrupters? Find out as we discuss how to keep our freedom alive.
Hank Rearden takes a long look at inflationary tax impacts on U.S. business, even as the U.S. continues to bow down to an obviously crumbling Chinese economy, And how -- and who -- will hold the bureaucrats accountable for their repeated failures to work for the citizens?
If you're not up to speed on how Government is making business slaves to the criminals, Larry Newman, Don Zorro and Tim Conaway will crank your engines. And they aren't blowing Canadian smoke up your wazoos. And if you're wondering how the Constitution protects you from bad politicians, its called fair and honest elections. As in voting for people who'll take the U.S. out of the UN, and send NATO a "sorry we can't make it to your party" note.
Hank Rearden sees hope in the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to push back against the greed of the Minnesota state government after it took more than it's "fair share" when collecting back taxes. Want to poke Goliath in the eye? Join Hank's crusade to teach Indentured Servitude curriculum in elementary schools right after the Trans team has left the classroom. And let's settle the debt ceiling by getting those 20 Representatives to skewer McCarthy's next bungled leadership lapse.
Tim Conaway and Larry Newman break down which branches of government are doing it right and which have fallen off the tree of liberty. We wonder if Barky Obama is hiding out in George Soros' penthouse, and applaud the changing tide as conservatives push back against the underhanded left-wing assault on America.
When a store puts a Target on its own back, Hank Rearden is there to take aim. Just tell Chip and Joanna to move their merchandise to the U.N., er, Walmart. Speaking of cheap deals, the debt ceiling fiasco makes us wonder if government goes bankrupt, will the Wall Street traded corporations swoop in to buy out the debt and take over? Or will the big crash come when Kennedy, DeSantis and Ramaswamy don't accept their party's snubs and decide to grab away votes from the Democratic and Republican National Corporations? Find out here.
Conk! News Weekend honors those who have fallen in service to our Country with a full frontal attack on the recent news cycle. Fulfillment Journalist Hank Rearden turns the page on the far left's same tired tactics to indoctrinate our children to undermine our freedom, while Don Zorro pierces the ludicrous attempts to fool us into thinking the conservative way has no future.
It's Jordan Jordan day - May 23, '23, Like Michael hitting the critical jump shot, there are people in the IRS and other Federal bureaucracies that want to do the right thing -- like thoroughly investigate Hunter Biden's deals -- but before they can dribble to the rim their leadership pulls them off the court. Hank Rearden knows that is happening, just like he knows that cracks are appearing in the Biden Lie Regime when department heads cancel payments to China-backed businesses -- after they've been exposed, of course. So let's do a deep house cleaning, getting rid of all the costly programs that duplicate each other, have failed, or are hidden in the ancient cob webs.
Hank Rearden shares some recent "Zorro events" that show signs of reversing the left's foolishness. Even as the Durham report tells us what we already knew, it is also another springboard toward Trump's return to the White House. Hank and Conk.News contributor Tim Conaway speculate on how 45 will manage his second four years of swamp draining.
