Kristi Noem is out at DHS, and Markwayne Mullin is in. The show dissects how the president's first Cabinet shuffle will be used by moderates to pressure the president to weaken his core promises, and how that absolutely must not happen. Mark Halperin breaks down the politics of the Iran conflict. Then, there's another round of subscriber questions, such as: -How does the team build faith amid the grief of losing Charlie? -Is it worth considering a compromise on immigration that includes some amnesty? -Why do members of the far left celebrate figures like the ayatollah?

Pinal County Sheriff Ross Teeple joins the show to discuss his bold leadership, the high-stakes Netflix series "Unlocked: A Jail Experiment" Season 2, and life inside Arizona's corrections system. Fresh off taking office, Sheriff Teeple shares how he was "strong-armed" (old friends) by predecessor Sheriff Mark Lamb into filming a groundbreaking re-entry program that unlocked jail cells, shifted to indirect supervision, and empowered inmates to self-govern—aiming to build responsibility, reduce recidivism, and break cycles of crime. Hear raw stories from his career: his first high-speed pursuit gone wrong, a terrifying hand-to-hand fight during an arrest, heartbreaking search-and-rescue recoveries (including a tragic plane crash in the Superstition Mountains), bizarre and intense calls, and a heartwarming success saving a young woman from a predatory relationship. Sheriff Teeple opens up about border security challenges near the Tohono O'odham Nation (where 80% of U.S. fentanyl crosses), cartel threats on American soil, drone smuggling risks, staffing shortages, pay raises for detention officers, and advice for new law enforcement recruits: put down the phone, build real-world communication skills, and seek face-to-face conflict resolution.

MPs question top civil servants about surveillance at Dover Port and illegal meat. The EFRA Committee said nearly a fifth of consignments directed from Dover to a border control point 20 miles away at Sevington, were failing to do so. All week we're exploring how farmland is being used. Solar farms can be controversial, but how do farmers and landowners with tenants view the issue? Norfolk County council has more than 16,000 acres in tenant farms. It's decided that none of its tenants will be allowed to put solar panels on their land, although they are encouraged to install them on farm buildings.We've all been told that less waste is good, and we're urged to recycle, but what if your household rubbish could be used to grow tomatoes or salad ? A landfill site next to the M4 in Wiltshire has installed a prototype inflatable structure which will use cleaned gases from waste, to grow food under cover.Presenter - Anna Hill Producer - Rebecca Rooney

Democrats once owned the script, the studio, and the critics. For decades, they treated politics like a movie where they wrote every line, cast themselves as the heroes, and handed Republicans a folded-up script and a folding chair. Journalists were the in‑house reviewers, professors were the archivists, and the public was supposed to clap on cue. The system was elegant in its simplicity: say something long enough, the media repeat it; the media repeat it long enough, professors teach it; professors teach it long enough, and it shows up at Thanksgiving in the form of a freshly indoctrinated relative interrogating you like the FBI over the mashed potatoes. It all rested on one fragile ingredient: belief. When belief collapses, repetition turns into noise.Belief started collapsing the moment ordinary people compared headlines with receipts and street corners. Inflation numbers said “it's fine,” but eggs looked like luxury items. Crime was “mostly down,” but people were stepping over zombies to get to their cars. The border was “secure,” but small towns were being turned into international transit hubs with no vote, no plan, and no end date. Inflation receipts became fact‑checkers. Border towns became investigative journalists. Parents at school board meetings turned into constitutional scholars almost overnight, because nobody else was defending their kids. The moment voters realized the approved narrative didn't match the lived story, Democrats lost their grip on the script.Then Donald Trump did the unforgivable in modern politics: he ignored the script entirely. He didn't try to rewrite it within their frame; he threw it in the recycling bin and started talking directly to the audience. Democrats thought they were directing a solemn drama; the public realized it was satire. They managed to wound him for a while with lawfare and sham investigations, and briefly regained narrative control by criminalizing dissent and outsourcing censorship to tech platforms. But they couldn't outrun reality forever. Inflation, crime, border chaos, and institutional corruption kept blowing holes in the storyline. They lost control of the narrative once, snatched it back with raw power, and now, in 2026, they've lost it again—and this time it's slipping beyond recovery.But they lost it again, and this time they can't wrestle it back.

Oscar Hagelsieb is a Mexican-American law enforcement professional known for his lengthy career in U.S. federal service focused on border security, organized crime and cartel infiltration. He grew up in a tough neighborhood on the outskirts of El Paso, Texas, the son of undocumented immigrant parents. His upbringing gave him firsthand insight into both sides of the border and influenced his decision to pursue a career in federal law enforcement. Hagelsieb began his federal service as a U.S. Border Patrol Agent, where he worked in frontline enforcement along the U.S.–Mexico border. In that role he encountered families and migrants crossing for economic opportunity as well as experienced cartel-linked smuggling activity.  Building on his effectiveness and his deep understanding of local culture and language, Hagelsieb transitioned into undercover work, infiltrating narcotics and human smuggling networks tied to major Mexican drug cartels. His appearance and background were strategic assets in these operations, allowing him to navigate criminal subcultures and gather actionable intelligence that led to prosecutions.  Over time, he rose through the ranks to become the Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAC) of the Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) office in El Paso. In this senior leadership position, he oversaw complex investigations into transnational organized crime, cartel logistics, and cross-border smuggling operations, and managed both domestic and international law enforcement efforts.  His work and perspective were featured in the documentary Kingdom of Shadows, which examines the human realities of the drug war and cartel influence along the border, providing rare insight into the lived experience of agents operating within these conflicts.    Today's Sponsors:  Black Rifle Coffee: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com Brunt:  https://www.bruntworkwear.com For a limited time, our listeners get $10 off at BRUNT when you use code "Clearedhot" at checkout.

Last week, the political battle lines were crystal clear. At the State of the Union, Donald Trump issued a challenge: The first duty of government is to protect American citizens. If you agree, stand up. Many Democrats remained seated. Today's episode connects that moment to border policy, Iranian nationals released into the U.S., sanctuary city clashes, counterterrorism warnings, and escalating tensions with Iran. We examine the claims: 1,272 Iranian nationals released under Joe Biden 2 million “gotaways” 18,000 known or suspected terrorists identified by federal officials 6,000 reportedly issued Social Security numbers And we ask: If retaliation comes — who owns the consequences? Opening Tease (On-Air Hook) They were asked to choose: American safety or illegal immigration. They stayed seated. Now the stakes have gone global — and the threat could be domestic.

At the State of the Union, Donald Trump issued a direct challenge: If the first duty of government is to protect American citizens — stand up. Many Democrats stayed seated. Today's episode connects that moment to border numbers, national security warnings, Iranian nationals released into the U.S., and the global implications of escalating tensions with Iran. From sanctuary cities to Middle East geopolitics, we examine the claim that domestic immigration policy has created a national security vulnerability — and how that intersects with America's broader confrontation abroad. Opening Hook (On-Air Tease) If protecting Americans is controversial… what does that say about the state of our politics? And if border policy meets global conflict — are we prepared? Key Topics Covered

Questions are being asked about possible drone activity on the U.S.-Mexico border after two recent incidents in the El Paso area shut down air space and a military laser was fired to accidentally take down a U.S. Customs and Border Protection drone.

From October 8, 2016: Stephanie Leutert, the Mexico Security Initiative Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin and the author of Lawfare's "Beyond the Border" series, joined Benjamin Wittes on this week's podcast to talk about the epidemic of violence plaguing Mexico and Central America. Despite the brutality, extremity, and remarkable scale of the violence going on immediately to our south, those of us in the United States who work and think on national security issues rarely consider it to be relevant to national security. Why is that? How bad is the violence in these countries? What's causing the crisis, and the waves of migration it generates, in the first place? And what, if anything, can be done to stop it?To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

This week, you'll hear from Juan and Fatima, who people who've been organizing and thinking about the southern US border for a long time to speak about the escalations in border force violence and kidnappings by ICE and CBP around the US (including Minneapolis where Fatima resides), an explosion in proposed immigration detention (including near El Paso where Juan resides), the expansion of low intensity conflict and counter-insurgency in the southwest since the mixing in of language of the War on Crime, War on Drugs and the Global War on Terror and how autonomous mutual aid provides opportunities for scaling up community defense and prefiguring the world we want to see.

Supreme Court Tariff Decision A predicted 5–4 ruling upholding presidential tariff authority was incorrect; the Court ruled 6–3 against the administration’s use of one specific tariff statute (AIPA). Majority held that the statute allowed banning imports but not charging tariffs—a conclusion strongly criticized in the dissents (Kavanaugh, Thomas). Despite the ruling, the impact is expected to be limited, as the President has multiple other statutes still available to impose tariffs. A new 10–15% tariff was quickly announced using alternate legal authority. The administration still retains broad power using: Section 338 (1930 Tariff Act) – allows tariffs up to 50% for discriminatory treatment. Section 122 (Trade Act of 1974) – 15% tariffs for 150 days (renewable). Section 301 (Trade Act of 1974) – addresses unfair foreign trade practices. Section 232 (Trade Expansion Act of 1962) – tariffs for national‑security threats. Section 201 (Trade Act of 1974) – safeguard tariffs for import surges. Litigation may unfold for years, potentially costing billions over refunded or contested tariffs. China and Democrats were portrayed as celebrating the ruling, implying political dimension rather than policy substance. Administration aims to use tariffs as leverage for better trade deals, not as permanent protectionism. 2. State of the Union (SOTU) Speech Impact Speech viewed as effective, more disciplined, and likely helpful for midterm momentum. Highlighted major administration achievements: Border control and sharp decline in illegal crossings. Crime reductions (e.g., murder and overdose rates reportedly down by ~20%). Economic relief themes like no tax on tips and overtime. Strong emotional moments involving veterans, Olympians, and American heroes created bipartisan resonance. Speaker Johnson and congressional Republicans portrayed as unusually unified. Coordination with the President seen as stronger than in previous cycles. 3. The Olympic Contrast: Alysa Liu vs. Eileen Gu Alysa Liu Daughter of a Chinese refugee who fled Tiananmen Square. Target of CCP intimidation and espionage on U.S. soil. Required 24/7 FBI protection before the Beijing Olympics. Despite pressure, competed for Team USA and won gold. Story framed as patriotic, resilient, and emotionally powerful. Eileen Gu Also U.S.-born with Chinese heritage. Chose to compete for China after being offered substantial financial incentives. Criticism focused on choosing a communist regime over the U.S., though the speakers avoided personal attacks. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on border fighting between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

To ignore our borders is to surrender our future. To secure them is to rebuild our nation's strength. America's borders protect our sovereignty and are our safety. Under the previous administration, drugs, human trafficking, and a complete breakdown of the rule threatened not just our borders but our entire nation. Now, thanks to the Trump […]

Tara exposes newly revealed documents showing illegal immigrant sex offenders were allegedly released into the U.S. after signing paperwork promising “counseling.” She connects the dots between the State of the Union moment when Democrats refused to stand for American safety and what she calls a coordinated internal flight program that sent thousands into red states. The details are explosive — and disturbing.

CannCon and Chris Paul break down the political theater surrounding President Trump's recent State of the Union, analyzing its optics-heavy strategy, the targeted jabs at congressional opposition, and Trump's push for tariffs to replace the federal income tax. They examine viral footage comparing Trump's 2026 immigration remarks to Bill Clinton's 1995 State of the Union, highlighting the stark reversal in Democratic positioning on border enforcement. The conversation shifts to healthcare and pharmaceutical pricing reform, with Trump's “most favored nation” prescription drug proposal and calls to codify it into law. The hosts debate the SAVE Act, mail-in voting vulnerabilities, black box machines, and whether proposed election reforms are meaningful fixes or controlled opposition. Internationally, they explore the UK's fragmented political landscape following a Green Party parliamentary win and what it signals about populist shifts abroad. Back home, they critique Senate priorities after lawmakers staged a puppy parade amid government shutdown drama. The episode closes with discussion of Citizens United, corporate influence in elections, and the $100 million Republican primary battle in Texas between John Cornyn and Ken Paxton.

Professor Evan Ellis of the US Army War College examines a recent shooting incident off the Cuban coast involving the Cuban Border Guard and a boat from Miami, contextualizing the event within Cuba's desperate economic situation, specifically its failing power grid and severe petroleum shortages.

Patrick Bet-David sits down with DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to discuss her claim that “they spied on me,” the discovery of a secret DHS file room, the fallout surrounding El Mencho and cartel operations, and efforts to identify and remove alleged deep state actors inside the Department of Homeland Security.

Border patrol in Buffalo dumped a blind Burmese refugee on a street corner a week ago. He went missing for five days. He was found dead two days ago. Shame on border patrol. Shame on ICE. This must not be what America is. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Have you stopped to consider the number of lies Democrats tell themselves?It's enormous.I don't know how they live themselves, except to say they're scared to leave the cult.Blatant lies.Covid. Vaccine effectiveness. Masks. Etc.Guns. Border policy. 2020 election. 2022 midterms. J6.The strangest thing about the hypothetical was not the shouting. It was the silence.At precisely midnight, something shifted. No executive order. No Supreme Court ruling. No viral hashtag. Just an inexplicable civic condition: every Democrat in America, from city council to Capitol Hill, suddenly lost the ability to lie.Not exaggerate. Not deflect. Not rebrand. Lie.By sunrise, the cable news studios looked like aquariums after someone forgot to oxygenate the tank. Pundits opened their mouths with the usual choreography, but what came out was unfiltered oxygen. Raw. Bracing. Occasionally fatal to reputations.The first hearings convened before breakfast.A senior Democrat, long fond of describing January 6 as an existential threat on par with Pearl Harbor and 9/11, leaned toward the microphone and admitted that while the riot was disgraceful, the apocalyptic rhetoric proved politically invaluable. It unified a fractured caucus. It redirected scrutiny away from pandemic policy failures. It froze debate. “Most secure election in history,” another repeated, before clarifying that security and public confidence are not synonyms, particularly after states rewrote voting procedures under emergency authority while private actors poured hundreds of millions into local election administration.He even cited the now well documented “Zuckerberg grants,” the $419 million channeled through the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a figure reported widely in 2021 and dissected in state legislatures thereafter. What had once been framed as “philanthropy” was now described, under duress of honesty, as asymmetrical infrastructure. Legal, perhaps. Neutral, not exactly.Then the conversation pivoted to COVID.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

108 minutes. Record-low inflation. Safer streets. Border enforcement. Protection for children.Over 70 Democrats boycotted. Many refused to applaud any of it.The contrast was the message.Christians must ask: which vision better protects life, family, and freedom?

Today on Stinchfield we expose the attempted Deep State disruption. A failed sabotage of President Trumps State of the Union Address. Viewers immediately noticed irregular audio levels and what sounded like deliberate over modulation of President Trump’s microphone, a tactic aimed at undermining the power of Trumps spoken word. There are NO mistakes in Washington, the annoying peaking audio levels was by design and someone needs to be fired over it. It should serve as a reminder that President Trump's political opposition doesn’t just sit across the aisle, it lurks inside the broken wheels of government itself. Still, Tuesday night will go down as one of the most defining moments of the modern political era. President Trump delivered what may have been the greatest State of the Union address of his career. The tone was confident. Measured. Presidential. But when it needed to be, it was also razor sharp. Over modulation or not. He didn’t just speak to the American people. He exposed the opposition in real time. And then came the moment no one will ever forget. When President Trump asked members of Congress to stand if they believe in putting the safety of American citizens first… Democrats stayed seated. Let that sink in. Border security. Law enforcement. Protecting families from violent crime. And they refused to stand. It wasn’t partisan politics. It was a defining image. One that told the entire country exactly where each party stands. The contrast could not have been clearer:America First versus America Last. We break down the strategy behind the speech, why the tone was pitch perfect, and how Trump once again forced Democrats to reveal themselves on the national stage.

America has debated immigration for decades — but what if the real issue at the border isn't immigration at all? In this episode, I explain why the U.S. border should be treated as a national defense perimeter, not a law-enforcement problem. We need soldiers, not cops, at the border. We need a buffer zone on the Mexican side, not on our side. The discussion explores cartel control, strategic deterrence, judicial interference, and what policies could fundamentally change security outcomes. In light of the CJNG takeover of Mexican cities, we need to ensure that we do not make the same mistakes as we did with the Global War on Terror. I also break down major themes that could reshape a State of the Union address if Trump were willing to change his economic message. Finally, I delve into how a new party built on fighting for landowners, farmers, and the forgotten consumer and worker against the transhumanist technocracy and surveillance state would crush both parties.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the U.S.-backed operation that killed El Mencho, leader of Mexico's most violent cartel, triggering nationwide retaliation and raising serious security concerns for Americans both abroad and at home. Bryan then reports major shifts across the Americas as Venezuela expels Cuban security forces under U.S. pressure, Canada caves to tariff threats over Gulfstream jet certifications, and the Supreme Court limits presidential tariff authority, forcing the White House to pivot fast. He also details the CIA's quiet removal of politicized intelligence reports, Susan Rice's warning of political retribution against Trump-aligned corporations, a major asylum work permit crackdown, English-only commercial driver testing, and new action against "chameleon" trucking companies. The episode closes with hopeful research out of Sweden showing that popular GLP-1 weight loss drugs may dramatically reduce alcohol cravings and relapse risk, adding to growing evidence that both medicine and faith play powerful roles in recovery.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: February 23 2026 Wright Report, El Mencho killed Jalisco New Generation Cartel, US Mexico Special Forces operation, cartel retaliation Puerto Vallarta Guadalajara shelter in place, Trump Sheinbaum cooperation, Venezuela expels Cuban guards Delcy Rodriguez, Canada Gulfstream tariff pressure Georgia Wisconsin jobs, Supreme Court tariff ruling 15 percent global rate, CIA politicized intelligence reports removed, Susan Rice corporate retaliation threat Netflix board, asylum work permit freeze 14 years backlog, CDL English only rule trucking crackdown, chameleon carriers residential registrations, GLP-1 alcohol cravings semaglutide Ozempic Wegovy Mounjaro Sweden study
