Head-ON With Bob Kincaid

  Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid – May 7, 2025 On this edition of Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid, Roxanne delivers three fierce hours of truth-telling, political critique, and sharp-tongued humor from a proudly liberal, Appalachian transbilly perspective. Broadcasting live amid a personal health scare and ongoing fundraising efforts, she pulls no punches while skewering what she repeatedly calls the “Nitwit Nero,” “Orange Julius Geezer,” and MAGAT administration. Main topics include: Authoritarianism & Abuse of Power: Roxanne tears into the administration's deportation plans to countries like Libya and Rwanda, calling them a “slave trade” enabled by Pentagon funds and blatant human rights violations. She highlights federal judges pushing back against misuse of the Alien Enemies Act, particularly rulings from Judges Sweeney, Rodriguez, and Murphy. Religious Grift & Hypocrisy: With fire aimed at “Christian grifters” like Jim Bakker, Roxanne slams the prosperity gospel as a con. Bakker's demand for $1,000 donations, while his ministry faces foreclosure, exemplifies the cynical monetization of faith. Religious bigotry and antisemitism, especially targeting Jewish politicians like Gov. JB Pritzker, are called out directly. Sanctuary Cities & Counter-Trolling: The administration's war on sanctuary cities gets spotlighted during a visit by “Secretary HotMama” to Illinois, met with brilliant shade from Pritzker's team. The trolling press release earns Roxanne's praise for mocking cosplay law enforcement antics and dodgy constitutional respect. Attacks on LGBTQ+ Health: The MAGAT administration's cancellation of $800M+ in LGBTQ+ health research—including HIV prevention—is called a cruel erasure of queer communities from public health priorities. SNAP Restrictions in Louisiana: Gov. Jeff Landry's ban on buying candy or soda with food stamps, part of his “Make America Healthy Again” campaign, is framed as a thinly veiled assault on the poor, diabetics, and public dignity. World Cup Chaos Ahead: With mega-events looming, Roxanne calls out the US's crumbling infrastructure and visa backlogs, warning that MAGAT mismanagement could embarrass the nation on the world stage. Spying on Allies: A Wall Street Journal exposé alleging US intel is spying on Greenland and Denmark stirs outrage. Denmark's Foreign Minister calls it a betrayal; Roxanne sees it as more MAGAT overreach in pursuit of imperial fantasies. Media & Democratic Infighting: Roxanne roasts millionaire pundits and centrist Dems who bash Biden while ignoring MAGAT extremism. In her view, limousine liberals and profit-hungry networks are fueling division. Judicial Win in NC: There's a glimmer of hope as right-wing Judge Jefferson Griffin drops a bid to toss overseas ballots, clearing the way for Justice Allison Riggs' certified victory. Roxanne hails it as democracy fighting back. Additional highlights: Roxanne prepares for a CT scan in Durham and may launch a GoFundMe. The show faces a $968 fundraising gap and depends on listener support. A racist woman in Minnesota raises money on GiveSendGo—proof, Roxanne says, that hate still sells in MAGAT America. Pritzker signs an executive order protecting autism-related data. A 1972 Soviet satellite is falling back to Earth (location unknown). The Trump admin allegedly dismantled a key CDC infection control committee. Rumors swirl about MAGAT Surgeon General pick Casey Mean, a “wellness influencer.” Tone: Blunt, biting, and unfiltered, with moments of gallows humor and sharp satire. Roxanne blends grassroots outrage with deep concern for democracy, human rights, and community. Her message: resist the fascism, expose the grifters, support the truth.

Canadian PM insults Nitwit Nero to his face. Nitwit Nero is too far gone to even understand. Posse Comitatus is dead now. Martial Law on the Southern Border. MAGAT judge notes an American citizen has been deported, then sweetly licks Daddy's boot. Mmmmm, boot! Secretary HotMama gets grilled-n-schooled on Capitol Hill. Workers lose NIOSH protection. Anyone who doesn't speak English loses tornado warnings.   Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid – May 6, 2025 Roxanne broadcasts live from WV with signature wit and fury. She covers everything from her upcoming CT scan travel plans to a sweeping critique of the current U.S. administration—mocking "Nitwit Nero" and railing against threats to democracy, human rights, and safety. Topics include: Canada's PM Mark Carney rejecting U.S. annexation talk, calling out the President's delusions. Real ID's creepy rollout and the erosion of constitutional travel rights. DHS stonewalling on due process and deporting a U.S.-born toddler to Honduras. MAGAT-appointed judges and unconstitutional fund withholding by the executive branch. Translation cuts at the National Weather Service leaving immigrant families vulnerable. Layoffs gutting NIOSH and halting worker safety certifications. New military zones at the border and migrant deaths rising in El Paso. Speculation on a third term via a 22nd Amendment loophole. Escalating India-Pakistan tensions and the U.S.'s waning global credibility. A blue wave in Texas local elections rejecting MAGAT extremists. Shocking prison deaths at Marcy Correctional and rare guard convictions. Sharp critiques of Abbott, Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell, and Trump's mental decline. Plus: movie recs, listener banter, glue jokes, and Vatican conspiracies. Password: carney. New call-in #: 844-THE-HORN. Show airs Mon–Fri, 5–8 PM EDT. Roxanne needs ~$700 to meet May's goal—support matters. https://www.headon.live/contribute/

Head-On with Roxanne Kincaid – May 5, 2025 “America's only liberal transbilly elitist” is back with fiery commentary, fundraising updates, listener calls, and blistering takedowns of Trump-world. Health & Travel: Roxanne shares an emotional update on her recovery from facial surgery, with an early CT scan scheduled at Duke. Facing a possible second surgery, she details her solo travel plans and worries — and underscores why listener support is vital. Fundraising: May's goal is $550. Cat in Ohio kicks off a $50 matching challenge, joined by Jeremy and Jude. Funds cover show costs and essential travel for medical care. Stalker Alert: Roxanne reveals disturbing threats from a cisgender woman spewing transphobic vitriol and death wishes. The host, no stranger to hate since her transition, took legal action — now involving the WV State Police. The incident is a raw look at how hate and misogyny collide. The MAGAT Menagerie: Trump, aka “Nitwit Nero,” comes under sharp attack for a string of bizarre moments: An AI image of himself as the Pope, Confusing Harvard with Harlem, Misrepresenting Supreme Court rulings, Suggesting American kids only need 2 dolls, Flubbing Civil Rights Act history, Praising his own wall that doesn't exist. Roxanne and listeners shred MAGAT lies, from calling Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett “low IQ” to defunding general officers in a Stalinist purge. Also on blast: Marjorie Taylor Greene (the “Trailer Queen”), Pam Bondi (“Pam Blondie”), and their dangerous rhetoric toward judges and migrants. Ryan Goodman joins via clip to analyze the twisted legal maneuvers. Economy & Reality Check: Clarence, a trucker and long-time listener, calls in with real-world insight: freight is down, MAGAT hats are disappearing, UPS is laying off workers, and the economy is cracking — especially for small owner-operators. He rips Trump's empty promises on manufacturing and salutes Kamala Harris for pension protections. Law, Cops & Queer Bars: Coverage of a disturbing raid on Ptown Bar in Pittsburgh during a drag show links today's police overreach to Stonewall and Compton's Cafeteria. Roxanne sees echoes of the past — but also resilience. The mayor pledges a review, and the queens didn't back down. Immigration & Lies: The administration's plan to pay undocumented migrants $1,000 to leave is mocked. Rep. Crockett claps back with real data. MAGAT disinfo from Steven Miller gets dismantled. Pop Culture & Sarcasm: A Met Gala mention. Snarky reading of People magazine's puff piece on Caroline Levitt's May-December marriage. Trump's “human battery” theory of exercise sparks laughs and concern. A literary quote from The Great Gatsby becomes this month's challenge. Bottom Line: Resilience, reality, and resistance. Roxanne faces medical hurdles and real threats, but refuses to back down. MAGATs get exposed, listeners show up, and the truth gets a mic.

Two things: the new Canadian Prime Minister says it plain and true, calls out the U.S. for our betrayal of our best friend. It burns. It hurts. It aches like a bum tooth and the shame is sickening. Betrayers. We.Are.BETRAYERS. Let it sink in till the bitter bile rises in disgust. For a palette-cleanser, consider: Nitwit Nero is Barney Fife in the real world.  So Friday-On-the-Front-Porch has moved to Discord. Join us!   Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid – May 2, 2025 This episode of the Roxanne Kincaid Show dives deep into the absurdities of MAGAT politics, global shifts in power, and the fight to preserve progressive values in the face of growing authoritarianism. Roxanne, self-described as a “liberal transbilly elitist,” cusses and discusses the MAGAT embrace of ignorance, American decline, and the urgency of community action. Key topics include: – Rep. Mike Collins's “Halal” hysteria, reacting with bigotry to CHA Street Food replacing Steak 'n Shake in a House office building, likening it to the Muslim conquest of Jerusalem. Roxanne mocks his ignorance of halal/kosher cuisine and South Asian food in general—while noting real crises in Collins's own district. – Trump (aka “Nitwit Nero”) butchering history, claiming the Declaration of Independence is about “unity and love,” which Roxanne compares to a Barney Fife-level misunderstanding. Even immigrants passing citizenship tests do better. – MAGAT voter “Cletus” laments Trump's economic inaction, showcasing disconnects between MAGAT expectations and Trump's actions. – More MAGAT absurdities, from Collins cheering racist chants to Trump demanding a birthday military parade and disrespecting Veterans Day. Beyond domestic politics, Roxanne discusses: – Canadian PM Mark Carney declaring the US-led global trade system “over” and lamenting “American betrayal,” signaling waning U.S. global relevance. – The U.S. as a ‘rounding error' globally, outpaced by the populations of China and India, and possibly facing reserve currency displacement. – Talk of a post-dollar global economy, with possible currency baskets including the yuan, euro, rupee, and pound. Amid concern for the U.S.'s fading clout, Roxanne uplifts her Horn family community, now connecting via Discord to maintain dialogue and solidarity. The show encourages listener support, podcast reviews, and highlights the work of Coal River Mountain Watch in fighting mountaintop removal. One donor even issues a challenge grant to boost fundraising. There's also some cautious optimism: – VP Kamala Harris is praised for tackling homebuying issues and price gouging. – The Quote ID contest continues, with Gatsby fans winning this round. But the future looms ominous. Roxanne warns of: – Climate catastrophe and the elite's seeming desire to abandon Earth (à la Elon Musk). – Mass extermination ideologies cloaked in "Western civilization" rhetoric by white Christian nationalists. – The Georgia Guidestones as a metaphor for techno-dystopian “rebuilding” under authoritarian rule. – A creeping American imperial presidency, with comparisons to Rome's descent into empire. Despite it all, Roxanne returns to a core message: community, resistance, and clarity of thought are vital. Whether through mocking MAGAT nonsense or spotlighting real threats to democracy and the planet, the show calls for vigilance, truth-telling, and action.

The difference and distance between spineless Democrats and the ones with fire in the belly is both profound and, in the case of the courageous, so very inspiring. Some newer House Dems are proving to be our best hope. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker is walking the walk and talking the talk. Meanwhile Rahm Emmanuel is the same old POS he's always been. Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid – May 01, 2025 Roxanne Kincaid returns in this electrifying May 1st episode of Head-ON, diving deep into the dysfunction of American politics with her signature firebrand style. From blistering critiques of “Nitwit Nero” and the “MAGAT Party” to her praise for progressive champions like J.B. Pritzker and Melanie Stansbury, Roxanne brings unapologetic heat to a show grounded in fierce truth-telling and social justice advocacy.

Thanks, y'all, for being patient with me while we got my sweetheart out of her slum. I know we missed a day of horrors, but we were in the midst of our own. Never clean a "goldenrod" oven from the 1977 Sears catalog that hasn't been cleaned since Saddam Hussein was an ally of the United States. Just sayin'. Meanwhile, in America: ACABs are driving innocents into the night in their altogether, stealing everything they have . . . even when their "warrant" is garbage and they don't even have the right house.

These hundred days have brought horrors unimaginable even during the first nightmare years of Nitwit Nero. Now, he says he "runs the world." He's insane. Stone-cold, no-doubt-about-it criminally insane.  The monsters of ICE are kidnapping infants and pregnant mothers, children with cancer. Could we please just skip the middle part and put them in spiffy, black Hugo Boss uniforms? I'd like to think maybe even MAGATS might take notice then.  Who am I kidding?

Now the fascists are going after judges. Let that sink in. Judges. Pam Blondi has declared the 4th Amendment no longer in effect. Unidentified masked gunmen are stalking people's homes all over the country. And here we are, with ringside seats to the potential end of our time as a constitutional republic at the hands of an outlaw regime. The question is, how do we save it? 

ICE is among us, no badges, no uniforms. Bad things will happen.  P.S. Measles. 

It's Whalehead Deadbear Brainworm Night! I HATE Whalehead Deadbear Brainworm Night!

Pete Kegbreath: on the . . . ropes. Megyn ("Jesus is WHITE") Kelly slimes Pope Frank because not only is Jesus white, he's also Murkkkan! MAGAT White House turns Easter Egg Roll into a corporate shakedown. SCOTUS hears appeal by whiny "krischun" parents who demand freedom to hate. DoJ lawyers quit and call out its corruption.

Oof. The transformer near the mansion blew up last night, hence the late download.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is apparently alive. There goes history rhyming again! Poisonous trees produce poisonous fruit. Congressman celebrates in front of a concentration camp cell, recalling the infamy of Abu Ghraib. The U.S. crosses the halfway mark on measles. Whalehead Deadbear Brainworm claims there aren't any "71 year olds" with autism. 

Ever watched a pressure cooker get hotter? I have. It's scary. Madness runs rampant. The Courts are hammering Nitwit Nero on the daily (today it was the 4th Circuit, once one of the most conservative circuits in the country). A wee, tiny few Republicans are finding their voices, even if they squeak.  Make no mistake, though, the ForProfit Media are still who we thought they were. But credit where it's due: Leon Skum is "a weirdo," although I make a strong case for "creep." Speaking of creeps, let's go back to FloriDUH, where the sound of gunfire shattered the sunny day at Florida State. Two dead, and a white, male, REPUBLICAN Christian murdered the whole universe for two innocent human beings . . . and we haven't even gotten to the creep, yet.

WARNING: massive amounts of Law Nerdery (which actually turns out to be kinda important) ahead. The Constitution is still alive, even if it's coughing up blood on the stoop. Too, also: Whalehead Deadbear Brainworm lets his Eugenics out to play. Target: Autistic kids.   

Fingers crossed! The H.O.R.N. Brain Trust may have solved the crazy file size problem. Please let me know.  Chuckles Grassley gets an earful in Iowa. Our betters say "I told you so" to the MAGATS trashing immigration law. B-T-W: there's a difference between "scare" and "terrorize." ICE kidnaps another innocent . . . an NYC teenager who fled Venezuela with his daddy. He's in El Shitholador now. Judge Xinis grows impatient with pettifogging DoJ pettifoggers. And a discussion arises about the ideological purity of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.   The funding deficit is getting bad. Halfway through April, and almost the entire month is unfunded. The program is, and always is free, but it does take money to pay the bills. Can you help one of the oldest independent progressive broadcasts stay afloat?

Bill Maher, Moran. Shinable Centrist. "Donald Trump's insane, but he was nice to me." Ol' Balls n' Strikes gets his nose rubbed in it and licks his lip for extra flavor. For-Profit Media finally twigs to the Constitutional Crisis we're in. 

How're you feeling? In the midst of all this insanity, a check-in matters.  Fascism is HERE. It;s all over the news like bedbugs.  Independent Progressive Broadcasting, meanwhile, hangs by a thread. Really.  https://HeadOn.Live

I wish I had a staff! We were all over the place. Sometimes it all moves too fast. Nitwit Nero gets spanked by SCOTUS. And now we wait . . . and wait, Mullah Moses Mike wants to destroy Medicaid to save young men from their basements. I hate him.
