The new home of the Steve Hilton Show.
The Steve Hilton Show podcast is a true gem for anyone looking for in-depth, accurate, and thought-provoking discussions on California issues. As a native of San Francisco, I have found this podcast to be my favorite among many others that I listen to.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the quality of reporting and the emphasis on facts. Steve Hilton and his fantastic guests dive deep into the issues affecting California residents and offer practical solutions to put the state on a successful trajectory. The discussions are well-researched and provide valuable insights that are often missing from mainstream media coverage. Hilton's passion and empathy shine through as he gives a voice to Californians who feel unheard by speaking out for them.
Another great aspect of The Steve Hilton Show is the range of topics covered. From political analysis to social issues, this podcast brings fresh and effective ideas for bringing people together and making necessary changes in our country. The guests are diverse and provide different perspectives, creating engaging conversations that challenge listeners' thinking and encourage critical analysis.
While it's hard to find any major flaws in this podcast, one minor downside could be an occasional lack of variety in terms of guest selection. While the existing lineup of guests is impressive, it would be great to see even more diverse voices represented to offer an even broader range of opinions.
In conclusion, The Steve Hilton Show is an outstanding podcast that fills a crucial gap in providing accurate information about California issues. It offers reliable insights that can help guide decision-making and promotes constructive dialogue around pressing topics.

Whether you're from California or not, this podcast is definitely worth your time if you're seeking intelligent analysis and solutions-oriented discussions.
Today's episode we cover the biggest scandal of the week – Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis and the cover-up. We discuss how, because of this, it is evident that Kamala neglected her Constitutional duties and should never govern California. We then have an interview with Huntington Beach Councilwoman Gracey Vandermark to discuss her run for State Assembly in the 72nd district. Susan Shelley also joins me to check in on California's gas car ban, how businesses are still suffering from COVID-19 policies, and In-N-Out fleeing the state.
In this episode, I discuss how Gavin Newsom destroyed California and is now eyeing the national stage, aka President of the United States. Newsom has decided to blame Donald Trump for his atrocious budget, but he fails to realize you cannot blame years of failures on only 5 months of a Republican President. Susan Shelley also joins me to discuss Gavin Newsom's newest “homeless encampment sweep” order, immigration, and more. Lastly, Herb Morgan joins me to discuss the budget issues in California.
In this episode, former LA County Sheriff, Alex Villaneuva, joins me to discuss why he is LEAVING the Democratic Party after 44 years. Alex describes how he did not leave the Democratic party, the Democratic party left him. Jennifer Horn joins California Corner to discuss how 40% of Californians believe Gavin Newsom has abandoned the state, Karen Bass's outlandish claims, and more homeless funding issues. In the most abhorrent story of the hour, David Tangipa joins me to discuss how California politicians are at a crossroads over a child trafficking bill.
Steve comes to you from Napa Valley at the Golden Again Tour, campaigning for the Governor of California. In this episode, Steve talks to the President and CEO of the California Restaurant Association to discuss how restaurants are suffering in California under the Democratic one-party rule. Steve and Jot Condie discuss how vital the restaurant business is to California's economy and society. Susan Shelley also joins Steve to discuss the newest California climate change legislation and how Trump is taking it on, and California's war on single-family homes.
Steve is joined by multiple peers to discuss what needs change in California, and why these topics have driven him to officially run for the Governor of California. California is a beautiful state that is disastrously run, and in this episode Steve outlines policies that need to happen in order to save California.
On this episode, Steve catches us up on the craziest far-left stories from the past couple of weeks. Steve discusses how out-of-touch AOC and Bernie Sanders are while touring their “fight oligarchy” tour. The policies they prop up have done nothing but destroy affordable housing, raise taxes, raise the cost of living, and fight for the destruction of women's sports. Steve also discusses how a Democrat Senator is going to El Salvador to try to bring back a deported MS-13 gang member, how San Francisco is still full of the homeless and squander, and the San Quentin prison turning into a farmers market for the prisoners.
In this episode, former Toys ‘R Us CEO Gerald Storch explains why leading a company in California makes no economic sense, citing sky-high taxes and business-unfriendly policies. Susan Shelley joins to break down the rejection of Scott Wiener's climate lawsuit bill and his controversial push for car-free apartment buildings in a city without proper transit. Plus, a look at the federal investigation into L.A.'s homeless task force mess of "funding". Steve Hilton and Michael Shellenberger dive into the broader dysfunction, from housing failures to why Governor Gavin Newsom hasn't done more.Steve also has an accounting announcement in this episode, that you do not want to miss!
This is an exciting episode packed with great guests to discuss the ever-growing corruption of California politicians and Gavin Newsom's camp. Susan Crabtree and Jedd McFatter wrote “Fool's Gold” on exactly that topic, including Gavin Newsom's close relationship with Chinese criminals and the CCP. Brian Reisinger, author of Land Rich Cash Poor, joins me to discuss the crisis of the war on family farming in California. Our agriculture and our farmers in the Golden State are religiously under attack, and Brian gives us more insight into the realities of these attacks.
In celebration of my newest book releasing today, Califailure: Reversing the Ruin of California, I have on some amazing guests to discuss the failures and the future of the Golden State. Larry Elder discusses his experience during his run for California Governor during the Gavin Newsom recall election, and the Mayor Karen Bass recall efforts. I am also joined by Lahnee Chen to unpack more Califailures, including California's economy.
Nicole Shanahan, RFK's running mate during the 2024 Presidential election, joins this episode to discuss the LA Mayor Bass recall efforts, her rumored run for Governor, making CA healthy, and more. This is not an episode you want to miss!
In this episode, we dive into the latest headlines stirring controversy. A judge blocks Trump's efforts to deport violent gang criminals, while Democrats continue to obstruct what Americans voted for — safer streets. Jennifer Horn joins us for California Corner to discuss shocking developments, including a homeless man with a violent history being released despite crushing another man's skull. We'll break down the absurd statewide diversion qualifications that now include everything from caffeine toxicity to erectile dysfunction. Meanwhile, Gavin Newsom's obsession with Trump takes center stage — from copying his podcast strategies to cozying up with tech execs using burner phones.
On this episode, Steve breaks down the mass misunderstandings when it comes to the latest Trump tariffs. The United States has endured over 50 years of free-trade ideology, making these tariffs a huge policy shift, and it is much too early to tell the benefits and general impacts. This week also marks the fifth anniversary of the declaration of the pandemic by the World Health Organization and there has been no accountability for the people whose actions contributed to the years of absolute devastation and disaster. Susan Shelley also joins the show and shares LA's latest scandal of wasted taxpayer money on homelessness efforts. Lastly, Steve points out the recent hypocrisies of California leaders.
In this episode, Steve discusses how the Biden Administration completely failed Ukraine. Ending a war and wanting peace should not be controversial. Alyssia Finley from the Wall Street Journal joins me to discuss Gavin Newsom's newest podcast, and how Democrats still don't understand why they lost. Jennifer Horn later joins me to discuss some atrocious things happening in the California legislature, including AB 1333 - which aims to make it harder for Californians to defend themselves. This is not an episode you want to miss!
In this episode, Steve highlights Golden Together's new policy about homelessness in California and Vivek Ramaswamy's official campaign for Governor of Ohio. Steve travelled to Ohio last week to support Vivek at his opening campaign events. He also discusses how the Ramaswamy family is proof of the amazing American Dream. Steve is joined with Susan Shelley and Michele Steeb to discuss Golden Together's newest policy on ending homelessness in California - but to first understand how to end it, we must understand how it started and what is going wrong. Steve, Susan, and Michele dissect how homelessness got so bad in California, the politicians that failed the homeless, and what the next steps are.
California has had a history of atrocious, radical energy policies throughout the decades. Steve's policy organization, Golden Together announces their brand new policy paper on reliable, cleaner energy for the better of the people - leaving out the oppressive radical policies. Edward Ring joins Steve to discuss the ins and outs of the newest policy and how California's radical clean air policies were conceived. This episode emphasizes how clean, reliable, and affordable energy IS possible without virtue-signaling and oppressive laws that hurt homeowners, farmers, and businesses.
In this episode, Jennifer Horn and I dive into the latest headlines over DOGE, Denmark's bid to buy California, and CA Democrats' continued failure over the LA fire recovery and rebuild. I also talk about my experience going in front of California's Congressional hearing and exposing Democrats' failures in wildfire prevention to their face. I also talk about Golden Together's newest policy paper on funding Prop 36 and fighting crime. This is not an episode you want to miss!
In this episode, I discuss how the Trump administration has completely turned America around in just a few short days. I bring in Susan Shelley to dissect exactly how President Trump saved California's water, thus saving California's agriculture and filling wildfire reservoirs. We dissect the truth behind the mainstream media's lies about Trump “turning on the water”. Susan Shelley also breaks down California's further spending money on “Trump proofing” the state and how taxpayer dollars are being sent to undocumented immigrants rather than taxpaying California permanent residents and American citizens. Lastly, I take a moment to talk about the confirmation hearings for Donald Trump's cabinet picks. This is not an episode you want to miss!
On today's episode we discuss the fires and bureaucracy that burned it to the ground. From the LA fires to the homeless, there's incompetence at a grand scale. It's evident that California bureaucrats have been standing in the way, and Jennifer Horn joins us to cover the nonsense of the city leadership. We also have a conversation with City Attorney Michael Gates to discuss Huntington Beach suing CA over the Sanctuary Law. The city is declaring itself a “Non-Sanctuary City,” stirring up the legal conversation around California and their fight against the Federal government in regards to immigration.
How did the Los Angeles fires get so bad? Listen to this episode as we discuss how the Los Angeles fires are not natural disasters but policy-made disasters. California Democrats' disastrous policies led to no water in the Palisades reservoir, power being shut off, budget cuts to LAFD, and insurance companies pulling out of California. While Los Angeles was under a red flag warning, LA Mayor Karen Bass still went off to Ghana representing the Biden administration. Fires inevitably start during red flag warnings, but these fires should never have gotten as deadly as they did - all due to “going green” and progressive policies. This is not an episode you want to miss!
The California fires are continuing to devastate counties in and around Los Angeles. Pastor Jack Hibbs discusses his church's plans to establish various levels of aid and we discuss specific policy failures that led to the inability to control or limit this devastation, as well as our fears for the future of these counties. The biggest question raging: Where is the ownership and the leadership? I also discuss Justin Trudeau's resignation and Trump's press conference. Jennifer Horn joins me for California Corner, and Dr. Naydeen Gonzalez-De Jesus meets with me to unpack the Latino community's massive shift to the right.
In this episode, I meet with District 36 Assemblyman Jeff Gonzalez who is being barred from the California Latino Legislative Caucus all because he is a Republican Latino! I also discuss the failure of California politicians in admitting that the Malibu fire was caused by a homeless encampment. Of course, I meet with Susan Shelley for California Corner to dive into California's ballot counting failures and Gavin Newsom's newest oil company regulations. Lastly, rumor has it that Kamala Harris is running for CA governor. This is not an episode you want to miss!
We have a fascinating announcement in this episode! I announce my next book, “Califailure: Reversing the Ruin of America's Worse-Run State”. This book has been a long time coming, as we have all been witnessing the downfall of California by far-left extremism. I also discuss the failures of the Manhattan DA in charging Daniel Penny. Daniel's acquittal is a victory, but also a shame as it should have never happened. I meet with our good friend, Jennifer Horn, to discuss the future of California and Gavin Newsom's out-of-touch concerns. I also discuss my lovely weekend with TPUSA in Mar-O-Largo over the weekend. This is not an episode you want to miss! Pre-order my book on Amazon or your favorite book retailers!
What do the FBI, DOJ, and the Bidens have in common? They have always been corrupt. In this episode, I discuss how it should come as no surprise that President Biden walked back on his word and pardoned Hunter Biden, how problematic it is that California is STILL counting ballots, and I meet with California State Assembly Candidate Joanna Garcia Rose to discuss her very close-call election results. This is not an episode you want to miss!
We have an exciting episode full of winners today! In this episode, I meet with some incredible guests to discuss the red wave hitting California, including meeting with the man, Michael Gates, behind the Voter ID lawsuit against Gavin Newsom and many more battles against the state in Huntington Beach. I have on newly elected State Assemblyman John Gonzalez to discuss how he flipped the seat with his district. Additionally, I met with Ali Macedo and Tangipa, two young California Republicans also elected to the State Assembly! I also discuss Trump's recent cabinet picks, reflect on COVID-19 and its effects on the people and country, California's future, and much more. This is not an episode you want to miss!
It's been over a week since the 2024 election, and we are already looking at a bright future under the Trump Administration. In this episode, I discuss Trump's cabinet picks and his announcement of the newest government agency, the Department of Government Efficiency. Later, I am joined by Susan Shelley to discuss how Gavin Newsom is “Trump-proofing” California, including flying to D.C. to get things done before Biden leaves office. Lastly, I discuss exactly why Trump is correct in wanting to abolish the Department of Education. This is not an episode you want to miss!
What an incredible election turnout! Listen as I am joined by my favorite guests, Jennifer Horn, Katy Grimes, and Susan Shelley, to discuss the 2024 election results. California has completely rejected soft-on-crime politicians and regulations and America rejected the out-of-touch Democratic Party in almost every way. I am then joined Tony Strickland from MAGA-nificent Seven to discuss Huntington Beach's election turnout. This is an episode you won't want to miss!
The Presidential Election is in its final stretch! It's very clear that Trump has been exuding confidence, while Kamala and her media pals just spew pure anti-Trump hysteria. State Assembly Candidate Carl DeMaio from Reform California, discusses his run against a fellow Republican and his ideas for truly turning things around. Katie Grimes joins me to discuss the new proposed tax credit for Hollywood and how it shirks other industries. What about all the other industries that need help? Matt Gunderson, running for U.S. House District 49, talks about his race and the importance of his seat in the House of Representatives. I wrap up this plethora of Candidate Corner's with Ian Weeks and his race for U.S. House District 25. All these conversations boil down to this: Republicans, especially in California, should not act like Democrats to get elected.
Donald Trump enraged politicians and media elites with his McDonalds “stunt”, but may have just won over even more American voters. Nathan Hochman, running for LA County District Attorney, joins me as we hope to rid California of George Gascón's terrible policies. If he wins, he'd take office the first Monday in December and he shares what his plans would entail. Susan Shelley and I discuss the proposed CARB regulation that would once again raise prices for Californian's, this time 47 cents per gallon. Scotty Peotter running for Assembly District 73 joins me to discuss what seats need to flip to break the Super Majority in California and what issues mean the most to voters. You won't want to miss this one!
Today is a special edition episode we've never attempted before! Welcome to the California Voter Guide where Katy Grimes, Jennifer Horn, Susan Shelley, and I give you our recommendations and guidance for Election Day. Affordable housing, extreme climate activism, Medi-Cal, minimum wage, the constitutional right to marry, and more are on the ballot this election season. We break down which propositions are misleading, why they are really on the ballot, and why the language matters. Ballots can be overwhelming, but we give you our thoughts and break it all down to help you make sense of it all. Are these propositions going to push people further out of California?
This week I might eat my words, but Kamala's “media blitz” may have just lost her the election. She has completely flubbed her response to the Hurricanes, had a total collapse in the ability to answer questions, and is not demonstrating proper leadership. I go over the current California redistricting discussion with guest Cathy Abernathy, which may just be the most important policy conversation I've ever had about the Golden State. Someone we've welcomed before, Kristie Bruce Lane joins us for Candidate Corner to highlight her race for Assembly District 76. I work through Newsom's Controversial Gas Plan pushing forward in the Legislature, as well as Trump's Coachella Valley Rally plans this Saturday with Katy Grimes, the Editor in Chief of the California Globe. And finally, I wrap up by getting off my chest CBS News' attempt to edit Kamala's answers for the 60 Minutes interview – a clear and disgusting subterfuge attempt.
Today is a fun episode full of guests and all the latest news. First, we break down JD Vance's absolute practical and political victory over Tim Walz in last night's debate. Then, Jennifer Horn joins me for California Corner to discuss the 1000 bills that hit the California Governor's desk, Voter ID laws, what it means to make America “healthy” again, and more. Josh Hoover also joins me for Candidate Corner to discuss his race for Assembly District 7, and what I consider to be on the front lines of the fight to restore sanity! I cover Kamala's visit to the border, highlighting the biggest policy failure for this current administration – and there are plenty to choose from. With the flow of fentanyl skyrocketing and the border crumbling to pieces, we are seeing the full scale of this disaster that should and could have been avoided. Fran Lebowitz wants Biden to dissolve the Supreme Court, so I get all those thoughts off my chest.
Today we have a lot of ground to cover and so little time. Tensions are continuing to rise and boil in the Middle East as Israel ramps up action against Hezbollah and we talk about where it may go from here. Kamala's responses to all of this demonstrate how much of a machine politician she truly is when it comes to both Israel and her appearance on Oprah this past month. She's insulting Americans' intelligence over and over again. Susan Shelley joins me for California Corner where we discuss the California Democrats newest plastic bag ban, CA DeepFake AI bans, all the bogus information surrounding COVID and the vaccine mandate, and my future plans for a special Voter's Guide episode just for you! I'm then joined by David Tangipa who is running for Assembly District 8 as we discuss all his political race encompasses and the idea of an American.
Another assassination attempt has been made on Donald Trump and all it proves is the hypocrisy of the Democratic Party and the media. They act surprised when an attempt is made on his life, when they consistently paint Trump as the “ultimate threat to democracy”. Also on this episode, we have a set of special stories about running a visibly and vocally conservative business in California. The first business owners joining us are Frank and Jennifer, who own a store called Beachin in Seal Beach in Southern California. Then, Patriot store owner Joy Miedecke also details her experiences with the so-called “tolerant Left”. Katie Grimes, editor-in-chief of the California Globe, then joins us for California Corner to debunk Gavin Newsom's ridiculous top 10 ways California leads the nation. Lastly, Congressional Candidate Michael Maher shares why he's running to flip the last Democratic District in the Central Valley. You won't want to miss it!
Today's special edition episode is jam-packed with a debate recap, Gloria Romero, Patrick Gipson, Jennifer Horn, and what I really think of the ABC Moderators. Kamala's debate strategy wasn't “preparation”, but a pre-packaged rehearsal of lies, while Trump made a great showing of what he truly believes in. I'm joined by Gloria Romero, a former State Senator and board member on Golden Together, to discuss why she left the Democratic Party and the current “progressive” climate. I follow that up with a discussion with Jennifer Horn to discuss the power-outages and issues with California's clean energy policies amongst other CA issues. Patrick Gipson then joins me for Candidate Corner to explain why his position is so vital and what is happening with Prop 36 and the race. I wrap it all up with David Muir's gross and partisan performance as an ABC Moderator.
Susan Shelley joins today's podcast to discuss how Governor Gavin Newsom and California Democrats are in complete shambles in Sacramento. We dissect how dangerous Gavin Newsom's most recent energy policy is, and how the California Democrats' solution to the gas price crisis is not to fix it, but to actually make it worse. We also discuss Kamala Harris' “wealth tax”, how she misled California voters with skewed ballot summaries, and how California is funding “free” down payments towards a house for illegal immigrants using taxpayer money.
Today's episode is full of amazing content and people. I talk briefly about RFK Jr's endorsement of Trump and his highlight on the Chronic Disease Crisis. We talk about how Kamala Harris is using aides to change policies she no longer finds useful, but is refusing to explain anything to voters herself. Katie Grimes is here to dissect Kamala's track record, the illegal immigration loan assistance pushed by California Dems, the administrative bloat in schools, and what makes it all unsustainable. And we have Nathan Hochman joining us today who is running for District Attorney in Los Angeles. We discuss his current polling, George Gascón, and his endorsement of Kamala. I wrap it up with a story of bureaucratic interference over British TV personality Kirstie Allsopp now being investigated by Social Services over her 15-year-old son's rail trip.
Today's episode is full of DNC news, great guests, and a treacherous seven hour hike. It has been very clear over the course of the DNC that Joe Biden's shadow is still looming large and Kamala is absolutely clueless on her own policies. They've pretty much decided to put Kamala's name over Biden's policies and pretend it's “change”. During all this, I found myself accidentally on a seven hour hike in Kauai, a physically challenging journey that accidentally turned into a profound moral lesson. I then met with Leticia Castilo to discuss why she is running for CA State Assembly District 58 and the always lovely Jennifer Horn. It's a great episode you won't want to miss!
Today we have a special and unprecedented episode! Marie Alvarado-Gil, a Senator from District 4 in California, makes an EXCLUSIVE announcement that you won't want to miss! As a wife, a mom of six, and a child of immigrants, she believes the “California Dream” is no longer cutting it for the current generations. She has strong values and beliefs that have led her to where she is today, and where her future lies as a Senator. With public education continuing to fail our kids, the cost of living skyrocketing, and lack of action from her party, she has decided to do everything she can to restore that California Dream – and it publicly starts with today's podcast.
Today's episode begins with the latest in “Kamala Mania”, particularly her pick of Tim Walz as Vice President for the Democratic Primary. This choice was Kamala's first big move on the presidential primary stage and it reveals a heap about her character, where she's coming from politically, and what we can expect to see should she win. Let's be clear, none of it is good. Then, Sheriff Warnke of Merced County joins us to discuss the cartel's latest industry infiltration: Farm equipment and avocados. This diversification only opens the door to a wider conversation about open borders and California's crime epidemic. Susan Shelley also joins the show to break down California's energy policies and Senate Bill 299, or, the California New Motor Voter Program. Lastly, we have an interview with the state assembly candidate for District 76, Kristie Bruce-Lane. You won't want to miss it!
You are in for a treat this episode! Jennifer Horn joins me to give a tell-all of Kamala Harris' record and what makes her the “ultimate transactional actor”. As a candidate, she didn't just “fall out of a coconut tree” – she's been hopeless as Vice President and shows a very consistent pattern with her history in California. I talk about the election results in Venezuela, where Maduro was defeated but caused an uproar and rebellion when he tried to flub the numbers. Then, per usual, the media distorts Trump rally comments to scare voters – yet is quiet on Biden's attempt to undermine the Supreme Court. You probably weren't aware that nearly one million Californians are without access to reliable drinking water and more who are riddled with rationing water – but I break it all down for you. Joanna Garcia Rose from State Assembly District 27 also joins me in Candidate Corner. We discuss the border crisis, immigration, and how she views deportation with multi-generational families, and more.
It's been an insane week in American politics from the Trump assassination attempt, the RNC, Biden dropping out, and of course Kamala Harris being the new presidential candidate. There's been a shift of genuine, warm emotion in the Republican party after Trump's miracle – and he announced JD Vance as his running mate. Jennifer Van Laar joins me to discuss Kamala Harris's CA record after her Biden endorsement. Right after, Senator Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh joins me to discuss California Senate District 19 and her community work. Listen to this week's episode as I dive into all my thoughts about these historic events we are witnessing right before our eyes!
Everyone has decided to “feel bad” for Biden going through this election while on the decline. I'm telling you not to. He made this bed throughout 50 years of climbing the ladder and now he has to lie in it. We discuss that, the Supreme Court ruling on homelessness, CA Democrats' predictable reaction, the French and British parliamentary results, and more. Jen Horn also joins me to discuss the denouement of this crazy attack on democracy coming from California. First, it started with the California Taxpayer Protection Act, then it continued with the initiative to reform Prop 47. It's no surprise that the Democratic Party is trying to demoralize Republicans, or anyone in the state who wants to enact real changes in our policy.
In today's episode, we prove how Democrats are to blame for all and any assaults on democracy. Looking at Hunter Biden's story and the Supreme Court's latest ruling on censorship, it is clear that Democrats are sabotaging the very foundations of this nation. On the flip side, the Chevron ruling was a huge win for voters and a loss for the arrogant, unaccountable, and unelected bureaucrats. Then, Lara Korte, co-author of POLITICO California Playbook, joins me to discuss the madness around California Democrat's rival ballot initiative for Prop 47. We also compare the U.S. voting model to others across the world and let's just say, our complicated web of mail-in ballots and voting machines has compromised the integrity of elections altogether. Lastly, joining us for Candidate Corner is none other than Suzette Valladares, who is running for California State Senate District 23. You won't want to miss what she has to say about the Democratic Party and its role in restricting the working class.
Today we talk through a plethora of news. Jamaal Bowman, known for pulling the fire-alarm to stall Congress, lost his primary seemingly due to his Anti-Semitism. Dr Jay Bhattacharya, Professor of Medicine at Stanford University — and a legend in my book, joins me to discuss the Supreme Court rejecting the challenge to the Biden Admins Social Media Censorship Case. Will this have a major impact on the election? We dig deep into what it all means. Susan Shelley joins me to discuss the basics of the $298 Billion Budget Deal in California. They're taking money out of their reserves for an “emergency” that doesn't exist. We wrap it all up with some happy news. I formally graduated from Oxford!
A huge bombshell just dropped at the end of last week. The California Supreme Court just threw the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act off the ballot. We have here in California the highest taxes in America already, but now the CA government wants to solidify its “right” to keep raising taxes without limit. This is a blatant attack on your right as a citizen to constrain their tax increases. Susan Shelley was a part of the team that crafted this measure and put it on the ballot and she joins the show today to help us understand exactly what happened and where we go from here.
Today's episode covers a wide variety of news. After the White House said they would not exploit or comment on it, Biden's campaign is shelling out $50 million in ads attacking Trump's conviction. Then, a NYT op-ed by Nicholas Kristof asks why we should put liberals in charge when places under their control are plagued with homelessness, crime, and more – claiming that they accept a “yawning gulf” between their values and their outcomes. Lastly, Jennifer Horn joins me to discuss child well-being, the LA public school cellphone ban, and how California residents feel about their leadership. The strain on Californians is serious and the reality is hitting hard. This is a great episode you can't miss!
Almost every time Biden opens his mouth, it is a complete catastrophe. On today's episode, we begin by looking at the flurry of stories regarding Biden's total incapacity to be in charge of the world's leading nation. He has the lowest approval rating in history, yet Democrats still defend him. Then, I talk about a new policy paper by my organization, Golden Together, that outlines how stable upbringing is key to achieving the California Dream. Susan Shelley also joins me and we discuss the outrageous stuff that's going on in California right now. First, we touch on vaccine mandate lawsuits and then Susan breaksdown ACA1, which is being offered as a solution to housing and infrastructure, but is really just another awful progressive ballot initiative that harms your cost of living.
We have an emergency happening right now in California. There is an outrageous attempt by Sacramento Democrats to sabotage an initiative that has been widely supported by Republicans and Democrats and independents across our state. This ballot initiative set for November would reform Proposition 47, which enshrines in law the mad idea that you can steal up to $950 dollars and it's still only going to be a misdemeanor, basically letting off criminals with no punishment. District attorney of Yolo County, Jeff Reisig, joins us for this episode to discuss why it's outrageous, and what we need to do right now to try and stop this absolutely appalling attempt to reform this terrible law by Democrats.
In this episode I discuss the negligence and absurdness of the pandemic – it is full of scandal and requires accountability. More specifically, the pigheadedness of Dr. Anthony Fauci and the left. I then go on to discuss the Biden Admin's embarrassing electric vehicle policies, costing Americans $7 billion in 2021 for charging stations, with only 7 charging stations built in 2024. Jennifer Horn joins me to discuss burglary tourism, the banning of plastic grocery bags, and the disastrous LA Metro pilot program in California. I wrap it all up with Robert De Niro's Trump Derangement Syndrome outside of court. This is a great episode full of some of my hottest takes – you won't want to miss it.
In this episode we discuss how war is not pleasant, but you should be allowed to respond when attacked, despite the ICC issuing warrants to Israel. We also discuss the Trump trials, Stormy Daniels, and how the courts keep proving their bias. I'm then joined by a podcast favorite, Susan Shelley, to discuss the budget and covering water stories in California. What is non-education spending? How are people getting pushed out of medical care? We cover it all. I wrap it all up discussing Biden's new, but plentiful gaffes. This is a delightful episode you won't want to miss.
It's official! Joe Biden and Donald Trump are set to debate each other live for the world to see. On today's show, we begin by discussing these upcoming presidential debates. Then, we briefly touch on the university protests. Specifically how these universities are canceling classes, changing graduation ceremonies, etc, making their entire student body suffer in order to pander to a loud minority. Joining me for California Corner is long-time friend Jennifer Horn of the Morning Answer! Jen and I break down recent progressive initiatives involving homelessness, alcoholics, and the LA Metro that have done nothing other than bring California and its citizens to the brink of total chaos. Then, Jeff Gonzalez joins me for Candidate Corner. Jeff is running for California Assembly in District 36, which covers three huge counties in Southern California. He shares his incredible story and his plans to reshape California. Lastly, I talk about Eric Adams story you may have seen all around the news and what his comments highlight about our immigration system.
