Immigration. It's a topic that ignites passion, confusion, and often division. These days, the word “immigrant” can split a room in half and not always politely. 

But here's the truth: whether documented or undocumented, immigrants have always been part of the American story. They've built railroads, harvested crops, launched companies, cared for families—not just their own—and they've done all this while paying billions in taxes.ImmigrationNation of immigrantsTimeline of immigration policyWho benefits from all these immigration reforms?Today's undocumented labor.How the US benefited from immigrants.How to Fix it?Want to adopt my foster puppy?

In this explosive episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, former Chief Patrol Agent Chris Clem pulls no punches as he dissects the sweeping "One Big Beautiful Bill", a $170 billion border security package signed by President Trump on July 4, 2025. From Trump's campaign rally cries and hats to finalizing the funding of $46 billion for the wall, $6 billion for border technology, $4 billion for CBP agents, and billions more — Clem lays out why this isn't just a slogan anymore. It's a full-scale national security strategy aimed at repairing what he says was gutted by the Biden administration on day one. But be warned: funding ≠ fix. Chris unpacks the massive challenges ahead — building miles of border barriers, roads, and sensor networks; hiring thousands of agents; and confronting migrant surges of 15,000+ at a time — and why even this bill might be too little, too late. If you want the unfiltered truth from inside Border Patrol, the political games behind the bill, and why America's next border crisis could lead to total collapse, you can't miss this episode.

We were honored to sit down with a legend in the PBR Bullfighting world, Shorty Gorham! You may be wondering what bullfighting and farriery have in common and why we sat down to hear from Shorty but in the short, it's work ethic. He didn't get into bullfighting for the fame or desire to get inducted into the PBR Hall of Fame, he did it because he enjoyed fighting bulls with a passion and the ability to master his craft to become the best. Like we do in the farrier trade, Shorty found great teachers and mentors that were able to push him to the next level of his career. We got to hear some great stories about how he got into bullfighting, a Border Patrol situation where they got to chase illegals coming into this country on horseback, how he shoes his own horses and his hunting guide service Escondido Hunting.

It's 1,289 days until the legally defined end of Trump's second term, and we're getting more and more concerned about the democratic establishment writ large. Trump has already threatened to "fix" New York's elections if he doesn't like the mayoral victor, and the GOP are already looking to re-draw district lines to remove Democrats from Congress.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Superman Fans Go After Clay A fiery and humorous critique of Hollywood’s political messaging, with a sharp focus on the controversy surrounding the new Superman movie directed by James Gunn. The hosts open with a lighthearted jab at CNN’s Wolf Blitzer and his infamous Jeopardy performance, using it as a springboard to discuss media credibility and public perception. The bulk of the hour centers on the Superman movie backlash, where Clay Travis criticizes Gunn’s framing of Superman as an immigrant and the broader trend of injecting progressive politics into iconic characters. Travis argues that Superman should remain an apolitical symbol of universal values like truth and justice, not a vehicle for modern immigration debates. The hosts explore whether Superman is better understood as an asylum seeker rather than an immigrant, given his extraterrestrial origins and adoption by American parents. OH Rep. Jim Jordan Congressman Jim Jordan tout the recently passed Big Beautiful Bill’s middle-class tax cuts, investment in border security, and pro-growth reforms. They argue it will stimulate job creation, repatriate manufacturing, and shield Americans from inflation-driven tax hikes. The show also covers the evolving landscape of college athletics, focusing on bipartisan legislation to regulate NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) compensation. Congressman Jordan outlines a proposed federal framework to protect student-athletes, enforce agent transparency, and establish eligibility standards—aiming to bring order to what he calls a “broken” system. The interview wraps with President Trump’s rumored plans for a UFC fight on the White House lawn. TX Sen. John Cornyn A sobering update from Texas Senator John Cornyn on the devastating Hill Country flooding, which has claimed over 120 lives and left 170 missing. The hosts and Senator Cornyn explore the urgent need for improved flood warning systems and emergency preparedness, especially for nighttime disasters. Listeners are encouraged to support Texas flood victims through fundraising efforts promoted on ClayandBuck.com. The conversation shifts to a shocking ambush on federal law enforcement officers in Alvarado, Texas, where 11 suspects have been charged. Senator Cornyn condemns the attack and links it to escalating anti-police rhetoric, emphasizing the need for strong support of ICE and law enforcement agencies. Illegal immigration and border security take center stage as Cornyn praises the Trump administration’s efforts to restore control at the southern border. He highlights the renewed morale among Border Patrol agents and the shift from humanitarian overload to national security enforcement. Run Jasmine, Run! The high-stakes 2026 Texas Senate race. Senator Cornyn discusses potential challengers, including Ken Paxton and Jasmine Crockett, and the strategic importance of maintaining Republican control in a politically pivotal state. The hosts speculate on whether President Trump will weigh in on the primary, underscoring the national implications of the race.

Griff Jenkins sets the record straight against CNN's false claim that border teams delayed disaster response, praising swift action by Coast Guard, Border Patrol, and local officials during Texas flooding. Live from Fox & Friends, Griff shares firsthand experience contrasting FEMA's slow response in North Carolina with Secretary Noem's immediate action in Texas. He highlights the dangerous rhetoric against ICE agents fueling real threats and violence, calling out Democrats for demonizing federal law enforcement. Griff condemns dismissive attitudes toward the fentanyl crisis at the border, emphasizing the deadly impact on American families. Beyond hard news, Griff's energy and down-to-earth personality shine as he balances high-profile media roles with local radio passion, proving why he's a trusted voice for conservative audiences.

Commissioner of US Customs and Border Protection, Rodney Scott, says the US should be worried about the amount of terrorist sleeper cells that have been allowed into the country due to border policies.

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about President Trump’s early accomplishments and the enduring strength of the United States.

Citing Trump’s actions on immigration, tariffs, and national security, Brett invites listeners to weigh in on what they see as the former president’s greatest achievement so far.He reflects on America's historic leadership—from landing on the moon to defeating global threats—and argues that the country’s strength allows even its most dysfunctional cities to exist without collapsing the nation. Brett contrasts the prosperity of the U.S. with the struggles of countries like Venezuela, Iran, and China. Later, Brett dives into the growing hostility toward law enforcement and the dangerous rhetoric surrounding immigration enforcement. He expresses deep concern over rising attacks on ICE and Border Patrol agents, citing a 700% increase in assaults and recent incidents involving ambushes. Brett highlights comments from DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin, who blames politicians and media figures for normalizing violence by comparing ICE officers to Nazis and Gestapo agents. Brett condemns these comparisons as outrageous and historically inaccurate, warning that such language encourages violence and undermines national security.

Democrat Lawmakers Say “There Needs to Be Blood” Over Deportations Multiple Democrat members of Congress admit their voters want violence to stop Trump's immigration crackdown. One even said people are calling for lawmakers to get shot—or provoke ICE into shootouts. Meanwhile, a gunman opened fire on Border Patrol agents in Texas, injuring three before being killed. Bryan warns that this rhetoric and violence will only escalate as deportations ramp up under the new Triple B law. ICE Cracks Down on LA's MacArthur Park, Mayor Bass Blames Feds ICE launched its biggest raid yet at MacArthur Park, a hotbed of stolen goods, drugs, and gang activity. Migrants fled as officers swarmed the area. LA Mayor Karen Bass called the operation outrageous, claiming children were playing in the park, but ICE pushed back and promised to return. DOJ and FBI Say Epstein Had No Client List - Contradicting Past Statements The DOJ and FBI now claim Jeffrey Epstein had no list of clients and acted alone, contradicting earlier statements from Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI leadership. Bryan recounts how Epstein's original sweetheart deal in 2008 protected co-conspirators and fueled suspicions of intelligence agency involvement. He says the official conclusion reeks of corruption and cover-up. CIA Under Fire Over Russia Hoax Report A newly declassified report reveals that former CIA Director John Brennan manipulated intelligence to falsely claim Russia helped elect Trump in 2016. Brennan personally pushed the discredited Steele dossier into the Intelligence Community Assessment, bypassed standard procedures, and ensured it was leaked. Bryan calls it treasonous and says Brennan deserves prison for trying to sabotage the Republic. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

//The Wire//2300Z July 7, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: FLOODING DEVASTATES AMERICAN SOUTH. MULTIPLE AMBUSHES REPORTED AT ICE FACILITIES IN TEXAS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Texas: Severe flooding continues to impact the state following unusual weather systems producing much more precipitation than originally forecasted. Concerning casualties, 82x fatalities have been reported so far. Hundreds of rescues by small boat and helicopter have been conducted, and Search and Rescue operations continue throughout the Guadalupe and Llano River basins.Texas: This morning, a small arms engagement was reported at the CBP annex in McAllen. Authorities state that an assailant (who has not yet been identified) was waiting in ambush with multiple firearms to target CBP agents arriving for work this morning. After a short firefight, the individual was killed. This shooting comes two days after a separate skirmish was reported at the Prairieland Detention Facility in Alvarado.Friday night, an individual who was visibly armed was acting suspiciously in the vicinity of the Prairieland Detention Facility. Beyond these initial factual details, the timing of events becomes unclear. However, as this situation was unfolding, a group of insurgents were observed maneuvering tactically to the west of the facility, taking up a position haphazardly concealed in a treeline running north/south approximately 50m to the west of the facility's perimeter fence. Shortly after this observation, this element launched their attack by setting off fireworks either as a diversionary maneuver, to conceal the sound of gunfire, or to prompt police to come out of the facility to enter the killzone of their arranged ambush. During the fray, a small arms engagement erupted outside this facility, as the element of insurgents in the treeline opened fire on one of the officers attempting to investigate the situation. No one was killed during the exchange, however one officer was wounded. A total of 11x people have been arrested so far in conjunction with this attack.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The shooters arrested in conjunction with the Prairieland Detention Center skirmish appear to not necessarily be Cartel-affiliated, but the more garden-variety far-left-insurgent-type. Cartel members don't often take breaks during a small arms battle to spray paint graffiti (as has been reported taking place during this engagement), nor do more organized and professional militants usually get caught en masse like this. All of the attackers were wearing body armor at the time of their arrest, but local reports state that only one firearm was recovered (the rifle that jammed and concluded the attack). As such, this is either a very kinetic "protest" event, or a very poor ambush.Concerning the other small arms engagement (the shooting in McAllen), it's possible there is a link between the two, though authorities have not speculated publicly on this yet. Prior to his attack, the McAllen shooter had spray painted the words "Cordis Die" on his vehicle, which was used to ram the gate at the Border Patrol facility to launch the attack. This phrase is most commonly associated with video game culture (such as the Call of Duty franchise), so it's possible that the attack in Alvarado could be linked, even if it's just a loose link based on ideology. Both attacks were conducted with very obvious public relations efforts in mind, and symbology/politics was certainly a focal point of the evidence left behind. Nevertheless, there are so many attacks on Border Patrol facilities at present that it's hard to establish any clear link between all of the groups who have chosen to conduct targeting efforts.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

In this intense commentary, the host examines a viral Axios article claiming House Democrats face mounting pressure from constituents demanding extreme measures—including risking violence—to resist Donald Trump's immigration policies. The segment alleges a pattern of coordinated attacks on ICE and Border Patrol agents, links to radical activism, and a larger strategy to overwhelm the system with mass illegal immigration. Featuring remarks from Stephen Miller and historical examples of arson and intimidation, the broadcast argues America is entering a “slow-rolling civil war,” driven by what the host sees as Democrats merging with criminal elements to secure power.

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — More than 100 people are now confirmed dead from catastrophic flooding in central Texas.  In Kerr County alone, officials are reporting 56 adults and 28 children are dead, with ten children and one adult still missing from a girls' camp.  President Trump has signed a major disaster declaration for Kerr County and will likely visit the state on Friday.   Two --- .  The White House is calling on Democrats to tone down their rhetoric against ICE and border patrol agents.  Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt challenged Democrats to meet with border agents.  Leavitt called the agents honorable men and women who are simply enforcing U.S. law.  The comments came the same day a man opened fire at a Border Patrol facility in South Texas.   And number three --- Emergency room visits for tick bites are nearing record levels this summer across U.S.  The CDC says July has already seen the highest number of tick-related ER visits in eight years.  People under ten and over 70-years-old have the highest rates of ER visits.

In this high-energy episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ashe in America unpack a torrent of explosive headlines. They start with the Houthis' missile and drone strike on a Greek cargo ship in the Red Sea, analyzing whether the timing was meant to provoke a wider conflict just as Netanyahu met with Trump. The discussion moves to Trump's comments on sending more defensive weapons to Ukraine and Putin's unusual public deference when taking Trump's call mid-event. The hosts then dismantle the DOJ's claim there was no Epstein client list and no credible blackmail evidence, pointing out contradictions and gaps in the official narrative. They examine the bizarre missing minute of prison footage and debate whether Ghislaine Maxwell is quietly cooperating behind the scenes. On the domestic front, they cover ICE sweeps in Los Angeles that set off citywide meltdowns, including dramatic demands for federal agents to leave. Rounding out the show are chilling details about coordinated attacks on ICE and Border Patrol, signs that violence could escalate as Democrats float ideas about civil disobedience and even martyrdom. With sharp humor and relentless skepticism, this episode challenges the official stories from every angle.

Over the past several weeks, FOX News Contributor, retired Marines Staff Sergeant Joey Jones has featured first responders as part of the FOX News Rundown's “Great Americans” series. Earlier this week, Jones spoke with Vincent Vargas Vargas, after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan as an Army Ranger, returned home and joined the Border Patrol, working along the U.S.-Mexico border, eventually becoming part of BORSTAR, the Border Patrol Search, Trauma, and Rescue unit. As part of that group, he focused on saving lives through search-and-rescue missions, medical interventions, and crisis response, regardless of the circumstances that led individuals at risk to cross the border. Vargas is now retired, and when he is not acting, he is a journalist, podcast host, and advocate for veterans. Joey and Vincent discussed his time in the military, the challenges of being a border patrol agent, and the work he's doing now. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share the entire conversation between retired Marine Staff Sergeant Joey Jones and Army Veteran and retired Border Patrol agent Vincent Vargas.

This summer, millions of Americans will head to the beach to beat the heat. But how clean is the water they're swimming in? At many beaches, especially on the East Coast, water quality is rarely tested for bacteria, pollution, and other health hazards that may be dangerous to both beachgoers and the many species that live in marine habitats. While the importance of clean drinking water is a well-known issue, pollution in swimming water has also become a serious public health issue in some areas of the United States, even causing national security issues for Navy SEALs, Border Patrol officers, and more who use these waters. Mara Dias, Water Quality Initiative senior manager at the Surfrider Foundation, joins the podcast to discuss how the Foundation's Blue Water Task Force helps monitor water quality at beaches across the country and the public health implications of reducing contamination.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, there is this Marxist-Islamist movement infiltrating U.S. institutions, especially the Democratic Party. ‘On Power' is a unique educational tool on these threats and it explores the ideological threats of Marxism and Islamism to American liberty, rights, sovereignty, and faith. It delves into the historical, philosophical, and political contexts of these issues, contrasting the Judeo-Christian belief system with Marxist-Islamist ideologies.  Later, Zahran Mamdani urges progressives to hold firm to their convictions, advocating for policies like student debt cancellation and Medicare for All, alongside radical goals like BDS and seizing the means of production. Mamdani is a Stalinist who's agenda threatens property rights and liberty. He is masking authoritarian intentions with ‘appealing' promises. In addition, Asra Nomani joins the program to explain that socialist Muslims have strategically infiltrated the Democratic Party over two decades, leveraging identity politics and progressive alliances to gain influence. This agenda aligns with socialist policies and critiques of capitalism, reshaping the party's direction. Also, David Trulio, President and CEO of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute calls in to announce Mark's ‘On Power' book signing, lecture and dinner on August 17, 2025 at the Reagan Library. Finally, Steve Scalise to discuss the big, beautiful bill that passed in the Senate. It will prevent a major tax hike, eliminating taxes on tips and overtime for workers like servers, and funding border security with wall construction and advanced tech for Border Patrol. It boosts energy production in ANWR and the Gulf, cuts $1.5 trillion in waste, and promotes economic growth. The House must now pass the bill and send it to Trump's desk.
