Podcasts about Congress

Congress is back from recess, with only a few weeks to avert a government shutdown. Lawmakers are split over budget priorities, including Medicaid and military spending. Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall joins the Rundown to discuss the budget battle, the President's crime crackdown in Washington D.C., and the recent controversial changes at the CDC. On Friday, a federal appeals court ruled that the Trump administration acted unlawfully in imposing certain tariffs, finding that President Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). FOX Business correspondent Lydia Hu joins the Rundown to break down the legal questions surrounding the President's tariff policies, the potential consequences if the Supreme Court upholds the decision, including possible government refunds of collected revenue, and the broader impact on existing and pending trade agreements. Plus, commentary from Yemisi Egbewole, former Chief of Staff and Advisor to the Biden White House Press Office, and the founder of Podium Strategies. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Prop 50 Messaging BlitzProposition 50 is one of the most nakedly strategic plays in this cycle. It exists for one purpose: to eliminate California's independent redistricting board so Democrats can gerrymander five seats back — a direct response to Republicans doing the same in red states. That's the whole game. Strip away the messaging, and it's a power move. The ads hitting the airwaves now make it clear how the campaign is going to run: targeted, segmented, and intensely focused on turnout.Gavin Newsom's out front, naturally. The first ad is just him — classic ego-forward strategy. The second ad is aimed squarely at the Bay Area and Los Angeles liberal base, the same model they used to win his recall election. It's all about maximizing favorable turnout in deep blue pockets. They've run this play before, and they know it works — but back then, they had a longer runway. This time, they're racing the clock.Then there's the third ad. That one's for the independents, and its existence tells you everything. The campaign knows that gutting an independent redistricting board is a tough sell outside the bubble. They say it's temporary. I don't buy that. Nobody gives up control once they get it — not in politics. The only way this doesn't work is if moderates see through the language and call it what it is. That last ad shows they're worried that might happen.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

He's one of those figures who's always just sort of been there — a Manhattan political mainstay who most recently made headlines during Trump's first impeachment. That might end up being his most lasting national footprint. He barely held onto his seat after being redistricted into a brutal primary with Carolyn Maloney. He survived that one, but it felt like the end of something.Now he's officially retiring. He says it's time to pass the torch, and he's backing his former aide, Michael Lasher, to take over. That makes sense. It's a controlled handoff. The district will stay blue. The torch will stay in the family. Nadler might not have been the flashiest member of Congress, but he was consequential — particularly in the Judiciary Committee, where he held the gavel through some of the most heated partisan fights of the Trump era.He stepped aside from that leadership role after Jamie Raskin challenged him, and that felt like the start of the wind-down. There wasn't really a lane left for him in this current version of the Democratic Party. He's not the TikTok-friendly progressive, and he's not the compromise-seeking centrist. He's just an old-school liberal from New York. And now, like a lot of others in his generation, he's finally closing the book.Virginia Foxx and the Epstein FilesRepresentative Virginia Foxx, chair of the House Rules Committee, announced she won't use her panel to block Thomas Massie's discharge petition demanding the release of the Epstein files. That's a big move — maybe even a signal. The Republican leadership has been slow-rolling this whole thing, not wanting to get too close to whatever comes out of those documents. But Foxx just let it breathe.Massie's move has bipartisan cover — he's working with Democrat Ro Khanna — and it's gaining momentum. Speaker Mike Johnson says he supports “maximum disclosure,” but that there need to be protections for victims. That's the dodge. That's how they're all trying to walk this line — publicly in favor of transparency, privately praying it doesn't land on their doorstep.The buzz on the Hill is that DOJ will release just enough of the Epstein files to make the issue go away. Maybe that works. Maybe not. But one thing's clear: the discharge petition isn't just symbolic anymore. It's a real threat. And the fact that leadership isn't moving to squash it says a lot about how much weaker those levers of control have gotten. Foxx's choice here wasn't just about process — it was a quiet acknowledgment that the old rules don't apply. Not with this. Not anymore.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:25 - Interview with Dillon Fleharty00:45:49 - Update00:48:02 - Prop 50 ads00:53:05 - Jerry Nadler00:55:08 - Virginia Foxx00:56:47 - Interview with Dillon Fleharty, con't01:35:24 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Donald Trump has been working to expand his presidential influence into places that are supposed to operate independently, like the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Federal Reserve, and even into Congress's constitutionally appointed “power of the purse.” As Congress returns to Washington, is this nominally co-equal branch of government willing to wrest its power back?

The rollback of the Inflation Reduction Act through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has reshaped America's climate and energy landscape by cutting tax incentives for wind and solar power and electric vehicles while maintaining some federal support for sources like nuclear reactors and geothermal plants.  While there is some uncertainty about how those policy changes will play out, there are even broader questions about what this all means for the Republican Party's energy policy agenda and approach to climate change.  So where is the party headed and what could bipartisan cooperation on energy policy look like in today's Washington? Can Republicans and Democrats still find common ground on issues like climate adaptation, energy security, and permitting reform? And what is shaping the Republican Party's approach to energy policy?  This week, Jason talks to Carlos Curbelo about the current state of Republican thinking on energy and climate policy. Carlos is a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives. He served Florida's 26th congressional district from 2015 to 2019. During his time in Congress, Carlos was a leading Republican voice on climate policy, co-founding and co-chairing the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus. After leaving Congress, Carlos served as a distinguished visiting fellow at the Center for Global Energy Policy. He also co-founded Vocero, a communications and strategic consulting firm based in South Florida. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

Epstein Saga Continues & Gov't Shutdown Looms As Congress Returns From Break

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica Levinson welcomes Reuters reporter Joseph Axe to discuss the intensifying battle over redistricting across the country. They examine Texas' unprecedented mid-decade redistricting push, California's proposed response, and the broader trend of overt partisan gerrymandering. The episode delves into what these changes mean for voters, political polarization, and the balance of power in Congress, highlighting how the fight over district lines could have lasting impacts on American democracy.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:What is Redistricting and Why It's Unusually Timely Now: The discussion highlights why redistricting is happening now, outside the normal decade cycle, mainly due to political pressure—specifically, former President Trump urging Texas to redraw its maps to increase Republican representation.The Texas Redistricting Battle: There's a deep dive into recent, unprecedented actions in Texas, where Republicans are seeking to replace a map they themselves passed just four years ago with one even more favorable to their party.Partisan vs. Racial Gerrymandering: Political gerrymandering is drawing lines to benefit a party (now effectively permitted by the Supreme Court), while racial gerrymandering—diluting the voting power of racial minorities—remains illegal, though often overlaps with partisan efforts.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

Congress Returns to the Capitol After August Recess; Trump Admin. to Defend Tariffs at Supreme Court | NTD Good MorningLawmakers are returning to Washington this week to tackle important bills on national security as well as on crime and violence in U.S. cities. The Trump administration is working with Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) to pass a “Comprehensive Crime Bill,” which is expected to address issues like cashless bail and increased police funding. Congress will also have to pass government funding for fiscal year 2026 before the end of September, or else face a government shutdown.The Trump administration is heading to the Supreme Court to defend the sweeping tariffs struck down by a lower court. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the tariffs are critical to fixing trade deficits and fighting fentanyl, and he's preparing a legal brief to underscore the urgency. White House trade adviser Peter Navarro is calling it the most important economic case in U.S. history. Meanwhile, the administration is also weighing a national housing emergency measure that could ease tariffs on building materials.Trump urged drug companies on Monday to make public the data on COVID vaccines that they've shared with him to clear up uncertainties over the drugs' effectiveness. The president is demanding an answer as, he says, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is "being ripped apart" over the question. Just last week, the CDC director was fired over disagreements on vaccine policy with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Several officials have also stepped down in protest.

On The Rita Cosby Show, Rita talks about Rep. Jerry Nadler not seeking re-election after 34 years in Congress. She also discusses the rising crime rates across the country as Chicago has had over 50 people shot Labor Day weekend alone while simultaneously telling President Trump not to send in the National Guard.

01:00:00 – Martial Law Playbook Trump's talk of sending troops into U.S. cities is framed as a Pentagon-backed military operation, planned long before, with conservatives enabling authoritarianism they once opposed. 01:05:29 – Pentagon's Megacity War Games A Pentagon video outlines future urban warfare, portraying megacities as “incubators for adversaries.” Commentary warns this is predictive programming for smart cities and biometric surveillance. 01:12:31 – Fascism in America Analysis argues Trump has fused technocracy with fascism by nationalizing industry, militarizing policing, and normalizing federal control—all cheered by conservatives. 01:18:34 – Chicago Woman Rejects Troops Despite being carjacked and injured, a Chicago woman rejects Trump's plan to send in the National Guard. She's mocked online but praised as more liberty-minded than conservatives cheering martial law. 01:30:28 – Martial Law Conditioning Pandemic lockdowns, mask mandates, and “crime crackdowns” are described as steps in martial law conditioning. Public, judiciary, and Congress are being acclimated to permanent military presence. 01:52:47 – Digital ID = Tyranny Children's Health Defense warns “voluntary” digital IDs always become mandatory. TSA's biometric scans are cited as proof that digital identity is a technocratic control grid. 01:58:16 – CDC Shake-Up & Power Struggle RFK Jr. clashes with CDC Director Susan Monarez over vaccine policy and alleged autism links. Her refusal to fire staff leads to her removal, triggering mass resignations and exposing deep cracks inside the agency. 02:05:28 – Hypocrisy of “The Science” CDC officials claim to protect public health while covering up vaccine harms and autism research. Commentary rips the arrogance of bureaucrats demanding blind trust and restricting scientific inquiry to “experts only.” 02:15:43 – Informed Consent & Pharma Tyranny Discussion shifts to medical freedom, pointing out that patients should decide—even in terminal cases—but instead government enforces pharma's agenda. Historic examples show how the drug war and mandates strip away personal choice. 02:24:49 – Poison in the Milk RFK Jr. and Trump allow COVID vaccines to remain available despite rescinding emergency use. The show compares this to knowingly placing poison in front of people and calling it “informed consent.” 02:39:37 – Autism Explosion Exposed Autism rates skyrocketing from 1 in 10,000 (1970s) to 1 in 31 today are tied to vaccine expansion. Commentary highlights bipartisan efforts to cover it up and accuses both Trump and Kennedy of protecting pharma profits. 02:48:34 – Ham Sandwich Tyranny Federal prosecutors attempt to charge a man with felony assault for throwing a Subway sandwich at an officer. A grand jury rejects the indictment, marking a rare citizen rebuke of Trump's police-state overreach. 03:08:29 – Cancer Scare & Medical Pressure Guest John Richardson recounts being rushed into surgery for supposed stage-three colon cancer. He describes how doctors pushed invasive procedures for profit while ignoring natural explanations for his condition. 03:12:47 – Colonoscopy & Surgery Pushback Richardson details resisting heavy pressure from multiple specialists who insisted he'd die within ten days without surgery. He argues most colon operations are unnecessary and profit-driven, highlighting systemic corruption in the medical field. 03:23:33 – Walking Away from Surgery Despite threats about insurance and liability, Richardson refuses both surgery and colonoscopy, noting how hospitals prioritize revenue over patient well-being. He stresses that bowel improvements were ignored because they conflicted with the prescribed plan. 03:29:04 – Natural Healing & B17 Therapy Richardson begins a 40-day natural healing process using B17, diet, and naturopathic methods. He links his recovery to apricot seeds and shares how suppression of such remedies protects Big Pharma's trillion-dollar industry. 03:39:55 – Apricot Seeds & Longevity Secrets Discussion turns to the Hunza people of Pakistan, who live past 100 and credit apricot seeds. Richardson cites studies on amygdalin's anti-cancer properties, claiming mainstream outlets bury these findings to protect pharmaceutical profits. 04:05:18 – Free Book: World Without Cancer Show ends with promotion of G. Edward Griffin's classic book, offered free online to spread knowledge about suppressed cancer remedies. Richardson frames it as a tool to break the lies of the medical-industrial complex.

Public, judiciary, and Congress are being acclimated to permanent military presence. 01:52:47 – Digital ID = Tyranny Children's Health Defense warns “voluntary” digital IDs always become mandatory. TSA's biometric scans are cited as proof that digital identity is a technocratic control grid. 01:58:16 – CDC Shake-Up & Power Struggle RFK Jr. clashes with CDC Director Susan Monarez over vaccine policy and alleged autism links. Her refusal to fire staff leads to her removal, triggering mass resignations and exposing deep cracks inside the agency. 02:05:28 – Hypocrisy of “The Science” CDC officials claim to protect public health while covering up vaccine harms and autism research. Commentary rips the arrogance of bureaucrats demanding blind trust and restricting scientific inquiry to “experts only.” 02:15:43 – Informed Consent & Pharma Tyranny Discussion shifts to medical freedom, pointing out that patients should decide—even in terminal cases—but instead government enforces pharma's agenda. Historic examples show how the drug war and mandates strip away personal choice. 02:24:49 – Poison in the Milk RFK Jr. and Trump allow COVID vaccines to remain available despite rescinding emergency use. The show compares this to knowingly placing poison in front of people and calling it “informed consent.” 02:39:37 – Autism Explosion Exposed Autism rates skyrocketing from 1 in 10,000 (1970s) to 1 in 31 today are tied to vaccine expansion. Commentary highlights bipartisan efforts to cover it up and accuses both Trump and Kennedy of protecting pharma profits. 02:48:34 – Ham Sandwich Tyranny Federal prosecutors attempt to charge a man with felony assault for throwing a Subway sandwich at an officer. A grand jury rejects the indictment, marking a rare citizen rebuke of Trump's police-state overreach. 03:08:29 – Cancer Scare & Medical Pressure Guest John Richardson recounts being rushed into surgery for supposed stage-three colon cancer. He describes how doctors pushed invasive procedures for profit while ignoring natural explanations for his condition. 03:12:47 – Colonoscopy & Surgery Pushback Richardson details resisting heavy pressure from multiple specialists who insisted he'd die within ten days without surgery. He argues most colon operations are unnecessary and profit-driven, highlighting systemic corruption in the medical field. 03:23:33 – Walking Away from Surgery Despite threats about insurance and liability, Richardson refuses both surgery and colonoscopy, noting how hospitals prioritize revenue over patient well-being. He stresses that bowel improvements were ignored because they conflicted with the prescribed plan. 03:29:04 – Natural Healing & B17 Therapy Richardson begins a 40-day natural healing process using B17, diet, and naturopathic methods. He links his recovery to apricot seeds and shares how suppression of such remedies protects Big Pharma's trillion-dollar industry. 03:39:55 – Apricot Seeds & Longevity Secrets Discussion turns to the Hunza people of Pakistan, who live past 100 and credit apricot seeds. Richardson cites studies on amygdalin's anti-cancer properties, claiming mainstream outlets bury these findings to protect pharmaceutical profits. 04:05:18 – Free Book: World Without Cancer Show ends with promotion of G. Edward Griffin's classic book, offered free online to spread knowledge about suppressed cancer remedies. Richardson frames it as a tool to break the lies of the medical-industrial complex.

What if the biggest environmental culprits were hiding in plain sight—right on our dinner plates? While most environmental organizations train their sights on the energy sector, Mighty Earth has taken a bold, and often lonely, stand in confronting the meat industry's massive role in climate change, deforestation, and biodiversity loss. In this episode, I sit down with Glenn Hurowitz, founder and CEO of Mighty Earth, to unpack why the meat industry typically gets ignored by the environmental movement, and what he thinks needs to be done. Glenn has spent decades fighting for the planet, from working on federal public policy in Congress to launching powerful corporate campaigns that aim to guide the world's largest food companies toward more sustainable practices. In our conversation, he explains why mainstream NGOs often shy away from challenging the meat industry, and how Mighty Earth's strategy—focusing on supply chains, corporate accountability, and the expansion of animal-free proteins—aims to fill that void. We also dive into Mighty Earth's campaign to help supermarkets treat plant-based proteins not as niche novelties, but as core offerings. Glenn shares how enhanced meat products (think burgers that are part beef, part mycelium) can be a bigger environmental win than pure plant-based options alone, and why shifting market incentives—not just consumer behavior—is key to making real progress. If you care about climate action, animal welfare, or food innovation, this episode may challenge you to think bigger—and act smarter—about what it really takes to feed humanity sustainably. Discussed in this episode Glenn and Paul recommend the good work of Food Solutions Action. Our past episode with author Mike Grunwald. Quorn mycoprotein patties selling in London KFC at near price parity with chicken. Glenn references the Sierra Club's war on coal. Mighty Earth's campaign to guide supermarkets to do better on meat. Paul mentions that dozens of species go extinct every day, largely due to meat demand JBS's investment in Spanish cultivated meat production. Glenn's 2007 book, Fear and Courage in the Democratic Party. Glenn and Paul both recommend reading Regenesis. The UN report on nature finance Get to Know Glenn Hurowitz Glenn Hurowitz is the Founder and CEO of Mighty Earth, and has led environmental campaigns around the world for many years. He is a globally recognized leader on forests, agriculture, and climate change, and running strategic campaigns. He has played a leading role in transforming several industries, including the 90% reduction in deforestation for palm oil, establishment of new policies and practices for the entire rubber industry, and serious action in meat, steel, and elsewhere. In his previous role as Chair of the Forest Heroes campaign, he and his colleagues won the Benny Award from the Business Ethics Network for their successes in transforming global agriculture. He co-founded Chain Reaction Research, which provides major financial institutions with in-depth risk analysis of companies' sustainability risk. Glenn advises philanthropies, governments and non-profit organizations on strategy. Glenn has also worked extensively in politics.

In the annals of US military history, there are no doubt many unsolved and perplexing mysteries, but few could compare to the fate of the US Navy spy ship that was mercilessly attacked by one of its closest allies intentionally and without warning. One of the reasons it is still a mystery is because it is also the only peacetime attack on a US naval vessel that, to this day, has never been investigated by the Congress of the United States.The USS Liberty was a 455-foot, 10,150-ton electronic intercept spy ship, originally a standard-design Victory Ship--a more evolved version of the World War II Liberty Ships--which were built as supply ships, not intended for direct fighting. The Liberty had been converted to an Auxiliary Technical Research Ship (AGTR), known colloquially as a "spy ship," first deployed in 1965; its top speed was only 18 knots.Yet the Liberty's fate, one of the most enigmatic, unresolved military mysteries of all time, is, paradoxically at its core, quite clear-cut and undisputed. The basic facts generally accepted by all are that, on the fourth day of the Six Day War between Israel and its Arab neighbors (Egypt, Syria and Jordan), the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) savagely attacked the U.S. spy ship, the USS Liberty.On the warm, sunny-bright day of June 8, 1967, starting at about 6:00 a.m., at least twelve, possibly thirteen Israeli aircraft of different types began surveilling the Liberty, some of which were only 1,000 feet or less in altitude, apparently to photograph and "map" her for later targeting purposes. The precision of the later attack could only have been accomplished through such pre-planning, specifically identifying the priority targets, starting with the gun mounts to render the ship defenseless, followed by all of the forty-five different radio antennae and related transmitting equipment. . Beginning just before 2:00 p.m., three unmarked French-built Mirage III-C swept-wing fighter jets, without warning, settled into a triangular formation, aimed straight at the Liberty and proceeded to bore down on the ship in a fast low-level attack that began with rockets targeted at the four gun mounts and heat-seeking missiles aimed at the communications gear, with their warmed transmitters. . When the attack was over, thirty-four men were dead and one hundred seventy-four were injured to varying degrees, some near death.Unlike all other books ever written about the tragic attack - none of which provide a satisfactory explanation of what really caused it - Remember the Liberty! examines it in complete context of how it was positioned there by Johnson himself, for the very purpose of being attacked, and sunk, with every one of the 294 men on board going to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. His purpose was to use that event - while blaming Egyptian President Gamal Nasser for the attack - as a pretext for joining Israel in the war, even at the risk of igniting World War III with the Soviet Union. This book provides the only realistic explanation for why Lyndon Johnson did what he did, and why, in the heat of battle, he intervened with his Navy officers who were determined to rescue the Liberty and ordered them to recall the squadrons of fighter jets they had already dispatched - twice, 90 minutes apart - for that purpose.When the heroic crew saved the ship from sinking, it stopped Johnson's plan to join Israel in the war and thereby saved the world from certain nuclear conflagration. It also prevented his strategy of entering what he felt would be a "popular war" (unlike his other one in Vietnam) in order to give him a better chance to be reelected president the following year. When that failed to materialize, so did his reelection campaign; ten months later he was forced to announce his decision to not re-run for the office that he had always considered his destiny.https://amzn.to/4n9s0zkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Episode #287 Christopher Gronski, Reclaiming Your State Citizenship For Ultimate Freedom Hello Health Heroes! This week, I spoke with Christopher Gronski who thirty years ago learned how to reclaim his Citizenship in New Hampshire, the State he lives in. For the last 20+ years he has been helping other people (me included) do the same. What you're going to learn is that you were born a “State Citizen” and for almost all of us that ended as soon as we turned eighteen and “Voluntarily” signed tax documents to go to work for someone that took us out of the “State Jurisdiction” and placed us in the “Federal Jurisdiction” of Washington D.C. Bad move… that jurisdiction will tax you because they (Congress) has the constitutional and legal authority to do so via the 14th Amendment. Did you know you can learn how to complete your paperwork correctly and avoid all that legally? What could you do with the money you're sending to taxes for your health, your family and community? I know some of you are already thinking… but those taxes fix our roads and stuff. Nope! All that tax money is going to pay interest on the national debt. Remember the first $900 Billion Government Covid Package that was supposed to help Americans that couldn’t work and help business owners stay afloat? A large percentage of those funds went overseas? I remember reading that $10 Million went to Pakistan for “Gender Awareness Programs”. It's simple, the government sucks but we have unknowingly empowered them when we “Voluntarily” and in reality “Unknowingly” started filling out tax forms. There is another way… Enjoy the show!

Suspicious Activity Reports, or SARs, are confidential filings that financial institutions are legally required to send to the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) whenever they detect transactions that may indicate money laundering, fraud, sanctions evasion, or other criminal activity. They're not evidence of a crime by themselves, but rather red flags—signals that something looks off. Banks, casinos, brokerages, and even crypto platforms file them routinely, and once submitted, they're closely guarded, unavailable to the public, and protected by strict “no tipping off” rules. Law enforcement uses SARs to trace illicit networks, connect patterns across different institutions, and build out investigations into everything from drug cartels and terrorist cells to human trafficking and large-scale fraud schemes.Now those same reports sit at the center of a political firestorm. House Oversight Chair James Comer has formally requested that the Treasury Department turn over all SARs connected to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. His demand signals an attempt to pull back the veil on what banks flagged about Epstein's vast financial web—wires, transfers, shell accounts, and potential facilitators. If granted, the request could provide Congress with a rare inside look at the money trails behind Epstein's operations, though it also raises thorny questions about confidentiality, precedent, and how much of this intelligence should be made public.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Comer requests Epstein, Maxwell records from Treasury Secretary | Fox News

On January 6, 2021, Ashley Babbitt was a rioter and insurrectionist who was shot as she attempted to climb through a busted window of a barricaded door leading to the Speaker's Lobby as members of Congress were being evacuated from the US Capitol. While she was in the process of committing crimes by trying to breach the Capitol, she was shot and killed. Even though she was an Air Force veteran, Babbitt was rightfully denied military honors at her funeral . . . until now. The Air Force just reversed course (undoubtedly at the direction of Donald Trump), and will now give Babbitt full military honors. This horrific decision DISHONORS all of the men and women of the United States military, each of whom took an oath to protect the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The walls are closing in for the perpetrators of Russiagate as the Trump administration continues to release documents, and Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) tells Glenn Beck that “you're going to see indictments.” As the former attorney general of Missouri, Schmitt took the Left's tyrannical actions to court, which he details in his new book, “The Last Line of Defense.” Now in Congress, he's continuing the fight to bring the deep state to justice. Sen. Schmitt tells Glenn why people like Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, James Comey, and George Soros should beware. Plus, he gives an inside look at Dr. Fauci's gain-of-function congressional hearing and Missouri v. Biden, the case he won against the deep state's attempts to use social media companies to censor Americans.
