Tyler Grey grew up struggling in the rough town of Bakersfield, California. The military seemed like the perfect answer...a way out of his difficult situation, and an outlet to help him protect others. The chance to be one of the good guys. After serving with the Army Rangers and the elite Delta Force, a battlefield injury resulted in his exit from the front and a new beginning as an actor, director, producer and writer, having appeared in films such as DC's Suicide Squad for director David Ayer, and as a recurring star on CBS' hit action series Seal Team. He joins the program to discuss his new book, Forged in Chaos: A Warrior's Origin Story, and shares his observations on his own past and those he met along his journey.

Center for Immigration Studies Senior National Security Fellow Todd Bensman returns to the program to discuss the continually evolving situation along the US-Mexico Border. Bensman has studied the crisis and the response to it between multiple administrations, and talks about how things are changing in Donald Trump's second Presidential term, as well as how the Biden Administration's actions not only failed to make progress on border security, but were willfully regressive and counterproductive.

AJ Rice is always loud, constantly witty, usually funny, and often controversial. As president & CEO of Publius Media, he's become one of the go-to names in conservative PR and media outreach, and he's also a published author. He joins the show to talk about his newest book, "The White Privilege Album," how it was inspired by the increasingly divisive world under Biden, and why he believes diversity for its own sake will never produce comparable results to merit.

J. Michael Waller, Senior Analyst for Strategy at the Center for Security Policy, is no desk pilot. He has been on the ground in some of the most intense situations the US was ever involved in, both officially and unofficially, from supporting the contras in Nicaragua to aiding the mujahideen during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. He watched the USSR collapse from the grounds of the Kremlin itself. And he saw for himself the good work that USAID once accomplished as a tool to spread the ideals of liberty and democracy abroad. But once the Cold War ended, the agency quickly devolved into a slush fund for Beltway ideological factions to promote their own agendas instead of the nation's. Now, with the second Trump administration taking a figurative chainsaw to fiscally irresponsible projects, Waller details his dealings with the project and why this austerity policy is necessary to refocus USAID, and the government as a whole, on its proper policy targets.

Alpha News Senior Reporter Liz Collin has been following the circus surrounding the death of George Floyd for over 5 years, and now her team at Alpha have released a devastating documentary about the subsequent trial of Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin, who was accused of murdering Floyd with an alleged illegal restraint. But the Alpha team dug below the surface of what the public saw at trial, and their investigation revealed a case that was based on half-truths, misdirection, and a city that perhaps feared the outcome if Chauvin was not convicted, remembering all too clearly the fiery chaos that engulfed Minneapolis in the aftermath of Floyd's death. Collin joins the program to discuss what they uncovered and talk about the documentary itself.WATCH "THE FALL OF MINNEAPOLIS": https://youtu.be/eFPi3EigjFA?si=-dHcvyOZuXZNmhgK

Attorney & legal scholar John Eastman served as an advisor to Donald Trump's campaign team during the 2020 election cycle. After questions were raised about the validity of the election results in many locations, Eastman proposed a path for the team to contest the results. Now, for submitting what many of his supporters say was merely a thought exercise at worst, Eastman is facing indictments in multiple states and a federal charge that still hangs over his head as of this episode being published, in the wake of Donald's Trump's historic string of Day 1 executive orders including pardons for many of those convicted for participation in the January 6, 2021 Capitol riots. Hear in his own words, recorded at the start of the transition of power back to the Trump Administration, what he has gone through, why he's experienced it, and how he believes the President should handle the courtroom challenges he continues to face.

Director Chris Burgard and Actor Nick Searcy released two documentaries on the infamous January 6, 2001 Capitol riots, exposing how federal law enforcement acted with both malice & incompetence in the course of their investigation. Subsequently, they were both targeted by those same departments. Burgard joins the program to discuss, in his own words, his dealings with federal officials and the subsequent fallout, as well as more details on the bureaucratic malfeasance he and Searcy uncovered.

Pastor Anatoly Kaluzhny of the New Life Church in Kiev has spent the first half of the holiday season here in the United States, meeting with political figures and influential leaders of faith in order to tell firsthand the stories of his people. Thousands of soldiers and conscripts have perished in Russia's attempted takeover of the eastern part of Ukraine. Cities destroyed. Families left homeless. Children orphaned. Now, with the changing of the US administration, many who find themselves on the front lines fear it's strongest world partner could abandon them to go it alone, with little in the way of military technology to defend themselves. Pastor Anatoly discusses how he and members of the clergy in Ukraine have been providing aid and morale to the troops and their families, and why he believes support from the west is vital to the ultimate goal: for the former Bloc to be left in peace, to rebuild & thrive as free nations. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

Cleta Mitchell rose to prominence in the political world when she helped Tea Party groups fight back against the Obama-era IRS and their invasive and opaque decisions regarding who and who isn't considered a nonprofit. Then, under the Trump Administration, she led the questioning of the ballot tabulation in the state of Georgia in 2020. Now, with Trump returning to the White House, she joins Victoria to talk about the things the nation has done right and wrong in the 4 years since the contentious 2020 race, and what still needs to be done to ensure that all American voters' rights are protected against foreign interference and partisan meddling. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

With less than 60 days left until Trump returns to office, speculation abounds that current President Joe Biden will use the remainder of his lame duck term to shove through unpopular legislation, pardons, or executive orders. And none may be more concerning than the Democrats' demands for a "climate emergency" declaration, which would treat climate change the same way we treat war and the COVID pandemic: as an excuse to curtail liberty and manipulate the economy. Daniel Turner joins to discuss the repercussions of such a declaration, why he feared it would be used as a way to manipulate the 2024 elections, and why the threat can't be ignored in future administrations. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

IP & civil rights attorney Ron Coleman returns to talk about the biggest political story in decades, Donald Trump's dominant victory in the 2024 Presidential Election, along with Republicans seizing control of the Senate and maintaining their hold on the House of Representatives...a GOP sweep that contradicted nearly every poll, every prediction, and every statistic.

Mollie Engelhart has one of the most eclectic backgrounds you may ever meet. She grew up on a farm in upstate New York before heading to California to study film at the prestigious, Disney-founded California Institute of the Arts. From there, she worked in A&R at Sony and became a recording artist herself, before taking on a new challenge by founding the vegan restaurants KindKreme and Sage. But when she started growing her own food on her own farmland to stock her restaurants' kitchens, she discovered an ever-mounting web of red tape and an avalanche of ridiculous overregulation that seemed contrary to every Californian's granola-fueled dreams of environmental friendliness and clean living. So, like many California residents, she picked up stakes and relocated to the Republic of Texas, building a farm, restaurant, brewery at Sovereignty Ranch, a 200-acre patch of unspoiled Hill Country near San Antonio. In this episode, she joins Victoria to share some incredible stories about her challenges in California, her philosophy of regenerative agriculture, and the looming health & environmental crises we may be facing if we fail to re-think how we feed ourselves.

One of the biggest controversies of the 2024 election season has been "Project 2025," a proposed policy roadmap formulated by a team at the Heritage Foundation to guide the Trump administration's first year in office if re-elected. The project garnered so much negative publicity from the mainstream press that the Trump campaign publicly distanced itself from the contents and the project leader stepped down. But was that really necessary, or the consequence of misinformation from left-wing media presenting selections without context? On this special episode of The Adult in the Room, Victoria is joined by PJ Media commentator Kevin Downey Jr. to talk about the upcoming election season and the project's contents, before speaking with Steven Groves, Margaret Thatcher Fellow at the Heritage Foundation and one of the legion of contributors to the nearly 1,000-page document.

Studies by government agencies and academic institutions insist that crime is dropping, but for many Americans it sure doesn't seem that way. Major cities are becoming retail deserts as grocery stores, pharmacies & major brand stores flee rising retail theft. City street "takeovers" result in property damage and violence. Police departments are outmanned and underfunded, with lengthy response times endangering lives. Prosecutors are declaring that they're going to stop filing charges for certain crimes, in the name of "equity." And all the while, state & city government continuously seek ways to restrict citizens' rights to defend themselves...a right that even the Supreme Court's liberal wing has repeatedly upheld. John Lott of the Crime Prevention Research Center joins the show to discuss why the perception of crime simply doesn't line up with the federal government's numbers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

Gregg Schumacher's family started one of the first and most prestigious furrier companies in the Pacific Northwest, Portland's Schumacher Furs. Now it no longer exists as a business in the city of its birth, thanks to a targeted harassment campaign from mainstream activists like PeTA and their violently extremist cousins, the Animal Liberation Front. The city government refused to help. The police refused to help. The courts refused to help, and even demanded he and his wife pay tens of thousands of dollars in the activists' legal fees. Now, Schumacher has launched a new initiative, Restore Law & Order. Its purpose? To use the legal system to force municipal governments who fail to protect their citizens from groups like those common in the PNW who destroy property and threaten lives to send an extremist political message.

He's a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama - Huntsville, and the US Science Team leader for the AMSR-E aboard NASA's Aqua satellite. He's been lauded by the American Meteorological Society for his groundbreaking work monitoring Earth's temperature fluctuations. So when he expresses a scientifically-backed hypothesis that climate change is part of a naturally-occurring cycle and that human impact is small and possibly negligible, it carries a great deal of weight.

This week marks 51 years since the trial began for the five men caught burglarizing the DNC offices at the Watergate Hotel. John O'Connor has been researching the scandal for decades, publishing two books on the subject and even building a relationship with whistleblower Mark Felt, known colloquially as "Deep Throat." On this special episode, he returns to the program to talk even more in-depth on the origins of the scandal, how Nixon's downfall was initiated by rogue elements within multiple levels of government, and how current scandals within the White House relate to this embarrassing and somewhat frightening chapter in American politics. ***** TOP STORIES California Now Outlaws Police From Asking The Most Uncomfortable Question Ever Pro-Hamas Nazis Vow to Sack Seattle's Space Needle on New Year's Eve 'Missing' Melania Stories Confirm Pundit's Advice: Former First Lady Is Key to Trump Win in 2024 Here's Why the Harvard President's Resignation Letter Set Off the Plagiarism Klaxons Again Sean Hannity Has Had Enough: 'Goodbye, I Am Done' A Jewish Family Is Attacked at 'American Dream Mall' in N.J., and We've Got One Big Question AOC Gives Away the Game on America's Southern Border Crisis West Coast, Messed Coast™ — 'Save Democracy' Crowd Sues to Stop Oregon Voters From Choosing Trump Government Regulators Are Coming for the Amish Farmer Again ***** MORE INFO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VictoriaTaft.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Victoria Taft @ PJ Media --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

Spycraft isn't usually what you see in the movies or read about in adventure books. It's gritty, it's ugly, and in modern times often requires just as much history & technology expertise as marksmanship. Intelligence operators are some of the most highly-skilled, dangerous people on the planet. So, when their skills are misused by the political elite against US citizens solely for the gain of political capital, the consequences can ruin careers, lives, and fragile peace. Charles "Sam" Faddis is a former CIA operative who led the first incursion into Iraq in the run-up to the 2003 invasion of that country, and headed the WMD unit of the agency's Counter-Terrorism Center. He also served as an officer of the US Army's Judge Advocate General Corps, so he cares a great deal about preserving justice in a world where due process seems to have given way to backroom dealings within agencies that have no Constitutional mandate, and should by all rights be neutral, owing allegiance to the nation itself, not to any one member of the US government. Faddis chats with Victoria on this episode about his thoughts on members of government using American investigatory & intelligence agencies as a political cudgel, and what can be done to heal the rot that continues to grow within these extraconstitutional bureaus. ***** TOP STORIES 'The Boys in the Boat' Movie Debuts Christmas Day and It's the Story America Needs Right Now West Coast, Messed Coast™ The Last Vestige of the 'Summer of Love' Is Flattened ***** MORE INFO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VictoriaTaft.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Victoria Taft @ PJ Media --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

Xi Van Fleet grew up with China's so-called "Cultural Revolution" exploding around her, transforming her homeland into an authoritarian state where the entire populace was indoctrinated into the belief that poverty was purity, that oppression was freedom, and that liberty was poisonous. After the death of Mao Zedong, she emigrated to the US and embraced the true freedom our country presents. Christmas is a time for generosity, prosperity, and celebration of faith and family, and so on this Christmas Eve edition of The Adult in the Room, Xi joins the program to discuss the dangerous path she believes America's political class are leading our country down, which is directly oppositional to those same core ideals, a topic she tackles in even greater detail in her new book Mao's America: A Survivor's Warning. ***** TOP STORIES Elon Musk Moves to #1 on Joe Biden's Enemies List Still Don't Think This Is a Battle of Good and Evil, Eh?

Naomi Wolf's outspokenness landed her jobs within the Clinton & Gore campaigns. But she's also drawn criticism from media elites for her regular challenges to narratives of feminism, sexuality, medicine, politics, and national security. Now, in her new book, Facing the Beast: Courage, Faith, and Resistance in a New Dark Age, Wolf tackles world leaders' failed responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and how their own mismanagement led to curtailed rights, malpractice, and social shaming from moralists (mostly on the left). She joins this episode to discuss the looming challenges we are about to face in America after ceding unprecedented control of our lives to government, media, and big tech & pharmaceutical companies. ***** TOP STORIES Red vs. Blue BS: Democrats, Take Your COMMIE RED Back West Coast, Messed Coast™ — Another Californian Is Mugged and It Was All Caught on Video Maybe This Idiocy Will Finally Break Trump Derangement Syndrome Fever Forever West Coast, Messed Coast™ a Stunning Thing Happened After Hamas Supporters Took Over UW Indictment: Hunter Biden Spent Money on 'Everything but His Taxes' 'He's Back' Trends on X as 'Most Censored Man' Alex Jones Is Allowed to Speak on Platform Again 'Pathological Liar' or 'Brave' Victim?

Seattle radio host Jason Rantz (https://jasonrantz.com) has witnessed firsthand how the governing policies of large, liberal-run cities have left chaos reigning. Stores closed due to rampant theft. The mentally ill, homeless and addicted left to ravage the streets and harass residents and visitors. The graft of local governments, who are latched onto the teat of government and pour billions into ineffective programs that only create more misery. It's all the subject of his new book, What's Killing America: Inside the Radical Left's Tragic Destruction of Our Cities. Today, Jason joins Victoria to talk about the mayhem unfolding in urban centers across the country, and what can be done about it.

Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld is the director of the American Center for Democracy and its Economic Warfare Institute. A native of Israel, she has seen firsthand the devastation the Mideast turmoil has brought to that embattled nation, both through conventional war and the horror of terrorism. She also has extensively studied how western money from the US and its allies -- much of it extracted from taxpayers -- has ended up lining the pockets of the same fundamentalists who slaughter men, women & children with equal glee. Her research into the economics of international crime & violence have led to the publication of four books on the matter including her latest, The Soros Agenda, in which she traces how both naïveté & malice have led to prominent figures in business, government, and professional activism funding the very fundamentalists, terrorists and cartels that are out to destroy them. Dr. Ehrenfeld joins the program to discuss exactly what is going on in Israel, and how foreign aid and well-intentioned charity feeds brutal jihadist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah all the way up to Al Qaeda and ISIS. ***** TOP STORIES DEMOCRACY DIES IN DARKNESS: D.C.
