Nothing is more important to this born and raised Illinoisan working mom of three small children than the future of this great country. Annie may be a millennial, but she's far from the caricature. Proving that young people can harness attributes of self-determination, hard work, and true conservatism, Annie loves discussing the latest news and events with people of all walks of life. Don't agree? Great! Love what she's saying? Perfect! The Annie Frey Show is Younger. Smarter. Better.

And is Jordan Binnington Hall of Fame material? He'll certainly be in the Blues Hall of Fame. We do Xs and Ys this hour, and determine the best way to dress.

Why do we need to import talent? Or is there a longer play here. Jessica Vaughan is Director of Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.

Is Trumpcare on the horizon? It's a topic that needs to be fixed, and a massive cost in our federal budget. Now, Trump and team are looking to fix this issue, with several proposals floating around.

The walls are closing in around these deep-state actors who put politics and highly questionable, probably illegal activity, over country. Their justice will come, won't it?

That's the assessment from the House, at least on the Republican side, as the shutdown shuts down. Rep. Mary Miller provides the inside scoop.

The "influencer class" of MAGA branders is up in arms about Trump's priorities. Is there something deeper to worry about here, or just off-year criticism with no elections coming soon?

It's a big show where we get DETAILS on the news you've heard, regarding the government shutdown, and deep state handwringing over it's finest show-dogs getting the pound treatment. Here we go, Monday!

Are there any? We come up with our own list, and ask who's running the democrat party. Is it the same people running these cities?

Comey, Brennan, Clapper. You recognize the names, and they're finally being subpoenaed. Greg Jarrett is Fox News' Legal Analyst, and he literally wrote the book on this.

Steve Moore is on this hour to discuss the 50-year mortgage, and Gregg Jarrett literally wrote the book on these deep-stater's corruption tactics, which are now coming to light.

Is this a good idea, or a bad one? The debate rages on, and Steve Moore provides some clarity as Cofounder of the Committee For Prosperity and Host of Moore Money.

If you want the details, here they are. The government shutdown appears to be ending, for now. Let's find out how long it will last from Ryan Schmelz, Fox News Radio Capitol Hill Correspondent.

Hooray! The money faucet's coming back on! Wait, is that right? 8 Senate Democrats crossed the line, and they're getting blowback for joining Republicans in keeping spending levels at the same level as Biden's era.

Today Brad and Ryan take the wheel for the Annie Frey Show, Ryan creates his own plan to re-open the government and asks callers if they agree or disagree, Sgt Thomas Becker who served in the Vietnam War shares some of his stories, plus an ongoing question today of will America ever have a balanced budget? All that and more right here.

In this hour, Brad and Ryan discuss how Nancy Pelosi has finally decided to take a step back and not run for re-election into Congress, retiring after nearly 40 years in Congress. What's her legacy and how will she be remembered in US politics?

Brad and Ryan discuss some of the most viral stories that happened throughout the course of the week, including the death of former Vice President Dick Cheney, and Jay Jones text messages from a few years ago revealing some dark information about the newly elected Attorney General of Virginia.

Trump has stated he wants to end the filibuster, what would that do to end the shutdown and would it be a good move on Trump's part? Plus stick around for a special interview with Sgt Thomas Becker sharing his stories during his time serving in the Vietnam war as we look forward to celebrating Veteran's Day next week.

The Annie Frey Show is pleased to welcome Sgt Thomas Becker onto the program to share some of his incredible stories of his time serving during the Vietnam War as Veteran's Day is coming up next week.

As the government shutdown looms on across America, Ryan Wiggins believes he has come up with a plan on how he would end the shutdown that would get both sides to agree. Now the question is, do you agree or disagree with his plan?

To open up the show, Ryan Wiggins gives his carefully thought-out plan on how to re-open the government. A plan that hopefully would get Democrats and Republicans to agree with it.

We're asking this question again, which we asked earlier this week, to see if there's been any change of heart. The President certainly wants it to happen. Democrats almost did it already, so they want it to happen too, but only when they're in charge. We have Rep. Darin LaHood on the show today in a gerrymander quagmire, and Sen. Eric Schmitt on Arctic Frost.

This conversation quickly evolves (devolves?) into a discussion about Jordan Binnington putting pucks in his pants. BUT, they're very famous pucks. And that's what matters.

A tale of corruption fit for the movies, and which is getting little publicity outside of the 9 Senators who are talking about it openly. The fact is, the Biden Justice Department targeted certain GOP Senators, and Eric Schmitt is one of them.

Gerrymandering hits home, when Rep. Darin LaHood might be hit by Pritzker. But listen to the Illinois Governor's explanation on why he just HAS to do this, and hates gerrymandering, it's so sad this is happening to him but what else can he do?

They came after 9 US Senators, and guess what they all had in common? (They were all Republicans). This is the Biden DOJ we're talking about here, and Eric Schmitt, Senator from Missouri is here this hour to discuss, as one of the victims.

It will come down to a few key questions, like, what constitutes and emergency? And are tariffs explicitly granted to the President by Congress? Hans is here to talk it over, as the Supreme Court does the same.

The price of gas is coming down, but will we ever see food prices go down? It's unlikely, and there are good reasons for that. Let's discuss, and then Hans Von Spakovsky is here to talk about tariffs.

We're split on this poll, what say you? Yesterday was not a good election for the GOP, but they were indeed in blue-states and cities. Deroy Murdock is on the show, and we dive into some post-election numbers, like ya do.

There's a controversy brewing in Southern Illinois, over two teams: Fairfield and Porta. Porta got 5 downs on one drive, so Porta sorta scored a field goal when they shouldn't have. What happens next....

How bad will it be in NYC? According to Deroy, it's "socialism with showtunes," and it's about to happen in the American experiment of it's biggest city. Will Wall Street stay?

We all do it. Well, except for Annie, who doesn't care. And Brad, who cares about everything. Okay, Ryan does it. So what are we supposed to pretend to care about?

Socialism does not bring power to the people, but the people seem to think it will. We comb over the elections yesterday, which brought Democrat gains up and down.

You're more optimistic than us, voting yes, while all 3 of us on the show voted no. But we'll know soon! These are democrat strongholds, typically, so it will be tough, especially in a blue-backlash year. Rep. Jason Plummer is here to talk about what democrats are trying to push through in Illinois, again, and Rep. Jason Smith of MO updates us on health insurance at the federal level.

Shouldn't gyms have clear policies on this? And if they do, who decided it was to throw out the WOMEN who are complaining about naked men in the shower room? Then, stick around for Ethan's White Winos, and Xs and Ys.

Dems admit their healthcare plan failed, that's why they need more money to run it now. How long should we keep propping up Obamacare before we decide it needs major changes?

And they're aligned with us as a democracy, why wouldn't we want to work with them, even if we don't see eye-to-eye on everything? Sen. Jim Talent is also Chairman of the Reagan Institute's National Leadership Council.

There are rumblings, but so far, they're just that: rumblings. The Democrats want to spend a lot more money, and they're willing to...spend less money in the meantime...to get it? Sen. Jim Talent and Rep. Jason Smith in this hour.

"And JB Pritzker is the one driving the bus." Our problems are exclusively driven by bad public policy in Illinois, says Sen. Jason Plummer.

That's what Ron DeSantis of Florida says about how he's leading Florida. And guess which state is growing more? We have Jason Plummer on this hour, State Senator from IL, to talk about this very thing.

The results of this poll are highly splintered, so what say you? We have Ryan Schmelz and Rep. Eric Burlison talking about the government shutdown latest, and Steve Moore to talk economy AND how unaffordable the Affordable Care Act has become.

Elon Musk is...MR. DOGE!!! And he's back with another exciting tale of waste! In this episode, Mr. Doge describes a harrowing free fall of taxpayer dollars being PROTECTED BY DEMOCRATS KNOWINGLY! It's a shocking tale that will not shock you at all!

Rep. Eric Burlison is MO-7 federal congressional representative, here to update us on the shutdown, and why he's staying in his district, partially for his own sanity! He also shows he's got a plan: And it's for a better version of health insurance in America.
