Never tug on Superman’s cape. I think most Americans learned that lesson when we were kids – but Congressman Thomas Massie must have missed school that day. No big surprises last night – just a reaffirmation that the American people want Republican members of Congress to stand with President Trump and advance the agenda that he presented to the nation. Massie simply forgot that he was supposed to serve the interests of the good people of the Fourth Congressional District in Kentucky – and not a bunch of extremist bots on social media.

Hundreds of journalists demanded that President Trump be confronted forcefully at the White House Correspondents Dinner. And they nearly got their wish. The media’s hatred of this man is really at demonic levels. It's unhinged. And yet, when the gunman attacked, President Trump ordered the Secret Service to protect the journalists. He was deeply concerned about their safety and well-being. And he was determined to stay and resume the program to accommodate the reporters. That notion was quickly dismissed by the Secret Service. But it shows you the heart of this man - a good and decent man who has been maligned by the media and the DC establishment. We thank God once again that he spared the life of our president and our lovely First Lady. And we thank God that he spared the live of the Secret Service agent who was shot. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble and he will protect us from the evil one. But the only people to blame for the current assassination culture in America are the Democrats, and the Legacy Media. Watch the Todd Starnes Show live below.

Virginia State Senator Lamont Bagby has figured out all of you country folks. Senator Bagby says he’s understands all of those country boys and girls getting down on the farm because he watches The Dukes of Hazzard. For Senator Bagby to suggest that he knows about country living because he’s watched The Dukes of Hazzard makes about as much sense as me saying I know about urban living because I watched Sanford and Son.

We begin with the California gubernatorial debate. Two Republicans and a slew of Democrats hoping to be Gavin Newsom’s successor. One issue in particular generated a lot of controversy – whether or not truck drivers should be required to understand English. It’s seems to be a reasonable requirement. We should want anybody driving an 80 thousand pound truck to know what the word “yield” means or “sharp curve ahead.” But California Democrats say forcing black and brown Californians and illegal immigrants to know what the word “stop means is racial profiling – and in some cases – a form of terrorism.” What say you, America?

The Justice Department announced an 11-count indictment accusing the SPLC of fraud. They also stand accused of giving hundreds of thousands of dollars to paid informants inside extremist groups. One of the more shocking accusations is that the SPLC actually organized the Charlottesville riot – that left one woman dead and sparked nationwide protests. The SPLC has a notorious history of slandering Christian groups like Family Research Council, Turning Point USA and even yours truly as hate groups. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche says the SPLC paid sources to stoke racial hatred. They literally did the exact opposite of what they told their donors. In essence – the Justice Department peeked under the KKK hoods and discovered Southern Poverty Law Center staffers and their cronies. The SPLC accused Christians of being violate hate and extremist groups – when it turns out – they were the ones fomenting hate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sen. Chris Murphy, the Democrat from Connecticut, is under fire for appearing to cheer on America’s enemy during the middle of a war. It was reported that 26 ships in Iran’s shadow fleet had been able to run the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. In response to that news, the senator tweeted one word, “Awesome.” White House spokesperson Olivia Wales told Fox News the congressman’s social media message crossed the line. “It takes an insane level of Trump Derangement Syndrome to cheer for a terrorist regime that chants ‘Death to America,” Wales told the network. “Chris Murphy is an America-last, radical left lunatic who stands for illegal aliens and Iranian terrorists over the American people,” she added. “The only thing ‘awesome’ will be when he is out of office.” First of all, there is no evidence that Iran has a shadow fleet or that they were able to evade the U.S. Navy. And to suggest otherwise is outrageous. “This is what late-stage TDS looks like: Cheering on Iran to defeat the U.S. Navy,” read a statement from the Trump War Room on X. The congressman’s office defended the message and said it was nothing more than sarcasm. It appears that Sen. Murphy is either a moron or he’s a traitor to his country. It's time to start calling out these treasonous Democrats for who and what they really are. Treason is a crime in the United States of America. It’s defined in part as giving "comfort" to the enemy. And that's what Murphy's comments did. At the very least Sen. Murphy should be censured by the U.S. Senate. And he should also be brought up on charges. And, if found guilty, he should face whatever penalties are levied by court. It’s time to stop coddling anti-American politicians.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Trump is breaking his boycott and will attend Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Association black-tie dinner. And now the media is freaking out. The New York Times says his attendance has "raised some uncomfortable questions within media and political circles." "What sort of message will this president, who has sued, threatened and demonized the independent news media, deliver when handed a microphone in front of hundreds of the nation’s most prominent journalists,” the Times reported. Several hundred journalists are demanding the correspondents publicly confront and rebuke the president. "How will the Correspondents’ Association, whose mission is to support the First Amendment, respond to a president whose favorite form of speech is speech that is favorable toward him?"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vice President J.D. Vance spoke in Athens, Georgia the other day. It was billed as a Turning Point USA gathering. The arena could seat more than 8,000 people. But only 1,500 people showed up. And the Legacy Media did not hesitate to show the rows and rows of empty seats. It was especially odd seeing how Georgia is a red state and college students especially have been drawn to the America First movement. So, why were there so many empty seats when Vice President Vance was the star attraction?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There were 268 workplace dispute settlements in Congress - many of them involving sexual assault. More than $17 million in settlements were paid out - money that came from your tax dollars.

Last week David Axelrod, Obama's former senior advisor and a longtime Democrat strategist met with Pope Leo XIV. Days later, Pope Leo is publicly attacking President Trump. And on Sunday three cardinals appeared on 60 Minutes to rebuke the president's immigration policies. I don't believe in coincidences. The pope has weaponized the Catholic Church to advance an agenda that promotes open borders and illegal immigration. They have also chosen sides in the Iran war. The pope has been blasting President Trump’s policies since 2025. He's using the pulpit to play politics. And when President Trump finally pushed back - the pope played the victim card. I’m actually impressed that President Trump held his tongue for as long as he did. But he’s right – Pope Leo is soft on crime and he’s also a very liberal pontiff. This is nothing more than a coordinated attack on the president of the United States by the Vatican. And quite frankly, it is both distasteful, uncharitable and un-Christian.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Many in the media are blaming Majority Leader John Thune for blocking President Trump’s agenda. But I blame ALL the Republican senators. Not a single one has called for Thune to step aside. Therefore, they are all responsible. What say you?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Senate Republicans surrendered to Chuck Schumer and the Democrats. The Democrats got everything they wanted - a compromise bill that does not fund ICE or Border Patrol. Democrats held the line. Republicans caved. Senate Majority Leader John Thune scheduled the vote for 2 a.m. - while the nation was sound asleep. That tells you everything about what the Republicans just did. They immediately skipped town without even addressing the Save America Act. There's no other way to interpret what the Senate Republicans have done. They have all but guaranteed massive losses in the midterm elections and they have effectively ended President Trump's America First agenda. I sincerely doubt that Republicans will codify any more of the president's Executive Orders. Every Republican senator who went along with this should face a primary opponent.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ROTC students sprang into action when a Muslim jihadist shouted "Allahu Akbar" and opened fire inside a classroom at Old Dominion University. The FBI says the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps students showed “extreme bravery and courage” and prevented further loss of life by stopping the suspect, identified as Mohamed Bailor Jalloh. The ROTC students subdued him and “rendered him no longer alive,” the FBI said. “I don’t know how else to say it.” President Trump should honor these brave cadets at the White House.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lara is joined by former RNC national spokesperson Elizabeth Pipko and host of The Danielle Gill Show Danielle Gill for a panel discussion on some of the biggest political stories of the week. The panel begins with a discussion of the ongoing conflict involving Iran and the broader implications for global security. The conversation turns to why many voices on the left, including prominent feminist organizations, have remained silent about the treatment of the Iranian women’s soccer team. The ladies also discuss the importance of maintaining a secure border during periods of heightened international tension and the risks of potential terrorist threats within the United States. They react to the attempted terrorist attack in New York City and examine how some political figures, including Mamdani, have attempted to spin the situation.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted a Muslim event at City Hall the other day. Those gathered assembled on prayer rugs. They sat barefoot on the ground while eating a meal and chanting about Allah. One of the Muslims in attendance flashed the symbol for ISIS – just a few days after two ISIS terrorists tried to blow up conservative protesters. In the shadows of where two mighty towers once stood, Islamists broke bread on prayer rugs inside City Hall. It turns out that the Islamists were not just waging jihad on the Twin Towers on that awful, terrible day. But they were also waging jihad on our way of life. The Christians and the Jews turned a blind eye out of either ignorance or fear. But it really doesn’t matter now. Because New York City is now under Islamic rule and if this country does not wake up to this clear and present danger – it won’t be the last major city to fall.
