Podcasts about Bright spot

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 1, 2025. 0:30 In a massive Illinois ICE operation called Operation Midway Blitz, over 800 illegal alien criminals were arrested in one coordinated sweep.These weren’t first-time visa overstays. We’re talking about gang members, drug traffickers, sexual predators, and violent offenders—people no community should be forced to live next to. Yet, thanks to Illinois’ sanctuary policies, these criminals were shielded from removal until federal agents stepped in. We break down the operation and why the stakes are so high for Americans and our safety. 9:44 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Democrats voted to shut down the Federal Government last night, repeatedly voting against passing a continuing resolution to keep the government funded through November 7th. The Trump administration is suing LA County in California for violating the 2nd Amendment. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services department announced the results of Operation Twin Shield. 12:30 Get Brain Reward from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off.

We also dive into the controversy surrounding the Archdiocese of Chicago honoring Senator Dick Durbin, a Catholic politician who openly supports abortion, with a “lifetime achievement award.” 16:30 We ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson about parents who put their kids in travel sports. Are they just living vicariously through their kids? Our American Mamas say there’s a lot more to the story. From the sacrifices families make, to the friendships built on the road, to the competitive edge required just to make a Texas high school team, travel sports can be a pathway to scholarships, memories, and life lessons. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 In Memphis, President Trump has deployed the National Guard alongside federal agents—working with Tennessee’s Republican Governor Bill Lee—to crack down on violent crime. Within just 48 hours, the operation led to 53 arrests and 20 illegal guns seized. But instead of welcoming the results, Democrats remain silent—or outright protest. Why? We break down why the left won’t credit Trump’s actions, the political games behind crime and safety, and how real families in Memphis are the ones who stand to benefit. 26:45 New voter registration data from Decision Desk HQ reveals a stunning shift: since Election Day last year, over 2.1 million names have been purged from U.S. voter rolls. We Dig Deep into what the numbers really mean, why voter roll maintenance matters, and how the push for automatic registration could be fueling fraudulent enrollments. We also examine why Democrats resist voter ID laws, the risks to election integrity, and how trust in the system erodes when the numbers don’t add up. 32:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 The Biden-era green agenda just took a major hit — and it’s Democrats’ own fault. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has announced the cancellation of $8 billion in green energy funding, wiping out a huge chunk of what critics call “slush funds for climate activists.” Democrats refused to pass a continuing resolution, betting that a government shutdown would hurt Republicans and President Trump politically. Instead, OMB Director Russ Vought wielded the budget axe — and the cuts landed squarely on the Green New Deal. 36:35 Plus, having a sense of purpose may protect your brain health, and that's a Bright Spot. In new study in the Journal of Geriatric Psychology, researchers found that people who felt their lives had meaning were less likely to develop dementia or Alzheimer’s even if they carried the APOE4 gene, a major risk factor. 40:30 Massive immigration raids are underway in Chicago, and former ICE Director Tom Homan says the strategy is simple: target the cities that resist federal immigration enforcement the most. From Los Angeles to Chicago, so-called “sanctuary cities” have become magnets for illegal immigration, gangs, and crime—and Tom Homan is saying "Whoa!" 42:30 And we finish off with a school community who came together to support their school's security guard.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for September 30, 2025. 0:30 We break down Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s address to military leadership. Calling it “another liberation day,” Hegseth declared an end to DEI mandates and political correctness in the armed forces—reminding us that America needs warriors prepared to win wars, not generals bogged down by woke ideology. 9:48 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump announced a deal with Pfizer that is expected to lower some drug costs for Americans. YouTube has agreed to pay millions of dollars to settle a lawsuit by President Trump. The Department of Justice is suing the state of Minnesota over its sanctuary city policies. 12:26 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13: 42 We dive into the case of the former Des Moines, Iowa, superintendent of schools who was arrested by ICE. He had been voting illegally in Maryland while running a school district in Iowa. How does someone with his background pass vetting for such a high-profile position? 16:44 We ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson about their baseline happiness. And they share how their upbringing helps them stay optimistic even when life gets difficult. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:05 We talk about the announcement of President Trump’s new presidential library in Miami, Florida—set to be built next to the historic Freedom Tower, often called the “Ellis Island of the South.” We explore the symbolism of that location, the history of the tower as a beacon for Cuban exiles fleeing Castro’s regime, and the unique way this library will be funded. 25:36 We Dig Deep into a jaw-dropping story about stolen electronics, cross-country chases, and truck drivers with driver’s licenses that literally read “No Name Given.” From California to New York, blue states are issuing commercial driver’s licenses — even REAL IDs — to people with incomplete or fraudulent identities, and those drivers are hitting America’s highways. We break down how this happens, why it’s dangerous, and what it means for border security, state sovereignty, and the rule of law. 32:01 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:40 We look at the increasingly volatile role Candace Owens is playing in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Owens has publicly questioned whether video evidence in the case has been doctored, claiming she’s spoken with the suspect’s family and that there are inconsistencies in the publicly released footage. Is she raising legitimate doubts—or fueling conspiracy without proof? 36:33 Plus, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called in the top generals and admirals from all over the world for a conference to tell them it's time to shape up, and that's a Bright Spot. Hegseth made it clear: it’s time to raise the bar on physical readiness, enforce real height and weight standards, and hold leaders accountable to the same fitness expectations as new recruits. 40:41 American support for Israel is plummeting, but it remains largely steady among Republicans. The Democrat party as a whole is becoming more pro-Hamas, and at some point we just have to say, "Whoa!" 42:23 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about excellence.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for September 29, 2025. 0:30 We start today's show with the looming threat of another government shutdown— the “Schumer Shutdown.” Democrats are demanding $1.5 trillion in new debt spending, including free health care for illegal immigrants, funding for failing media outlets, and cuts to rural hospitals. But could this shutdown be the opportunity that President Trump has been waiting for? 9:58 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Four people were killed during an attack on a mormon church in Michigan over the weekend. President Trump announced a 21 point plan to end the fighting in the Gaza Strip. Over the weekend, New York Mayor Eric Adams dropped out of the race for reelection. 12:40 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off.

Are these attacks random or are they part of a broader assualt on the nation's moral and spiritual foundations? 16:36 We ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson : If there were a reality TV competition to find the best dinner date, who would you send to win? We discuss what makes someone a great dinner companion. 23:26 We discuss the NFL’s announcement that Bad Bunny will headline the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. We tackle Bad Bunny’s outspoken criticism of ICE, his previous statements about not performing in the U.S., and the potential cultural and political implications of giving him one of the world’s most visible stages. 26:08 We Dig Deep into a controversial tweet from the Chicago Teachers Union honoring Assata Shakur, a convicted cop killer and former member of the Black Liberation Army. We review her criminal history, her escape from prison, and her life in exile, questioning why a teachers’ union would celebrate such a figure. 32:34 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:41 We discuss the sudden exit of incumbent NYC Mayor Eric Adams from the mayoral race and analyze the remaining candidates, including Republican Curtis Sliwa, Independent Andrew Cuomo, and Socialist Zohran Mamdani. 36:43 Plus, Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman is a surprising Bright Spot in the Democrat Party. Fetterman stands out for refusing to label Republicans as Nazis or fascists and advocating for civil discourse. From supporting Israel and denouncing terrorism to urging negotiation over government shutdowns, Fetterman’s pragmatic approach offers a rare example of independent thinking within the Democratic Party. 40:40 Chinese immigration has skyrocketed in Mexico, pushing out Mexican businesses, and China is trying to do the same in the US. And it's time that we stand up to China and say, "Whoa!" 42:50 And we finish off with a woman who was able to find her voice with the help of technology.

This is the full show for September 25, 2025. 0:30 At Georgetown University, disturbing flyers surfaced celebrating the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk — even mocking his death with grotesque slogans.
