Podcasts about Capitol police

Last weekend, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman, a Democrat, and her husband, Mark, were shot and killed at their home by a man impersonating a police officer.The attack comes amid a rise in political violence. Last year alone, Capitol Police investigated more than 9,000 threats against members of the U.S. Congress. Former U.S. Congresswoman Gabby Giffords knows the horrors of gun violence only too well. The Arizona Democrat was shot at a constituent event in Tucson in 2011.Now a leading gun safety advocate, Giffords speaks with host Mary Louise Kelly about how she is handling this moment and her thoughts on addressing the problem of gun violence.

Join Clay Edwards for a dynamic episode of The Clay Edwards Show on 103.9 FM WYAB, streaming live on SaveJXN platforms. Despite battling a sinus infection, he touches on local issues, including a reported 50% drop in Jackson, Mississippi's murder rate, crediting Capitol Police efforts while questioning the trend's sustainability. Clay also discusses cultural fatigue, referencing Jason Whitlock's commentary on “Black fatigue” and societal dysfunction, sparking a candid conversation about urban culture and accountability. In hour two, Clay interviews Charlie Reese, founder of the X5 Podcast, and Brett Scallions, former Fuel frontman, about their new band's single, Somewhere They'll Never Know. The southern rock/country track, filmed on Alabama's Smith Lake, captures summer vibes and promises to be a feel-good anthem. The duo shares insights on their creative process, plans for two albums, and potential live shows, with Clay pitching a Jackson performance. The episode blends music, pop culture, and raw social commentary, staying true to Clay's unfiltered style.

Liberal nutjob Hinds County Judge Wooten who famously & wrongfully locked up top cop Anthony Fox in a shocker has backed 2 Capitol Police officers in their case that being brought forward by state AG Lynn Fitch and throwing the case out over conflict of interest.

DISCUSSING THE KARMELO ANTHONY & CAPITOL POLICE CASES 7:07am - 9:00am He has quickly become one of the most in-demand criminal defense attorneys in Mississippi, and he has already successfully defended several high-profile murder suspects in the last year, as well as being one of the top former Hinds County assistant district attorneys for nearly a decade, who successfully obtained the last death penalty sentence in Hinds County. Shaun Yurtkuran will join me by phone this morning to have a serious, unbiased conversation about the Karmelo Anthony “self-defense” defense from both angles, as well as an honest conversation about why AG Lynn Fitch would prosecute the two Capitol Police officers in a case that MBI and internal affairs said were justified officer-involved shootings.

1- Start off with a big thank you and recap of the Bubba Wingfield fundraiser from over the weekend 2- Ranting about Jackson and the mayors race, I'm still not convinced the Horne is the man for the job but he's 1000% better suited than Chokwe and at lease deserves a chance to be the Democrat candidate where he'll face off against one of the 3 really strong independent candidates such as my close friend and mentor Kim Wade, Zack Servis or Rodney DePreist (who I continue to forget about) 2- A Disgraced former MHP trooper seems to have a hard time keeping my name out of her mouth and using my image for clicks on her social media (which is funny because other than having to discuss her firing I've always treated this person fairly), it's funny what people will do when they become desperate for attention. On a positive note I guess I've reached a level where this should be expected and not frowned upon, I just regret ever having her on my show or handling her firing with kid gloves instead of speaking on it how I truly felt. Lesson learned, never hold back and never take it easy on someone who wouldn't do the same for you. 3- AG Lynn Fitch has indicted several Capitol Police officers who had to shoot some bad guys in Jackson to defend themselves in what's clearly nothing more than a political stunt to pander to Democrats as she ramps up for a potential run at the Governors office in 2028. I will do everything in my power to prevent that from happening after what she's done to these officers.  4- How are we ever going to get to Mars if we keep arresting all of our future rocket scientist, engineers and astronauts?

The 900 lb. in our room today is a blockbuster story published this AM by Blaze Media. Steve Baker, the co-writer of the story, joins us at 9:55 AM (CST) and explains the entire story. What's it about? It's a shocking story revealing that FBI Director Kash Patel appointed the former FBI Head of the FBI field office in South Carolina, who was the architect of the entire FBI operation of rounding up every J6 "insurrectionist," jailing them, and destroying them: Steve Jensen. Steve's story in The Blaze quotes many people who were impacted by Jensen's "persecution" of J6-ers, many of whom innocently were waved into the Capitol that day by Capitol Police officers! Most of them have been prosecuted for misdemeanors, some jailed, but all negatively impacted by that coordinated witch hunt.Steve spends about 45 minutes breaking it down for us. Don't miss it!You should also share the story and today's shows with Steve with as many people as possible in your circle of important people.

CHOKWE BLAMES CAPITOL POLICE ON ST. PADDY'S PARADE MASS SHOOTING

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comTrump is once again trying to reassert himself as the law and order president.During his recent joint address to Congress, the president called for a mandatory death penalty for anyone who kills a police officer. This of course comes less than two months after Trump himself pardoned more than 1,500 Jan. 6 rioters, including over 300 who pleaded guilty to either assaulting or obstructing law enforcement.One of those law enforcement officers who was assaulted on Jan. 6 was former Capitol Police Sergeant Aquilino Gonell, who tells Mehdi that he “had to laugh” last week when Trump tried to claim he's on the side of law enforcement.“He is culpable of what led up to January six and the aftermath,” Gonell says to Mehdi. “He sat at the White House and as the events were happening, instead of calming the situation, he continued to tweet about it and make it more volatile for us on that day. And while he was watching it on TV, we were fighting for our lives trying to protect elected officials.”Sgt. Gonell tells Mehdi that he was assaulted by more than 40 rioters that day and had to undergo two surgeries as a result. When asked what his reaction was when Trump pardoned those rioters on his first day back in office, Gonell told Mehdi it was like a “stab in the heart.”“This is a consequence of people not believing that Donald Trump's gonna do what he says that he's gonna do,” Gonell tells Mehdi. “He pardoned these people, now he emboldened them, and instead of doing something positive with their lives, with their second chance, they decide to go back and harass the people who did the right thing on January 6th.”Gonell was specifically referring to an incident a few weeks ago, when he and his fellow former Capitol Police officers were harassed by the ex-Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio. Tarrio had previously been sentenced to over two decades in prison for his role in January 6th, but was ultimately pardoned by Trump.If you are a paid subscriber, watch the full interview to hear Gonell tell Mehdi what it was like to continue protecting the GOP lawmakers who helped incite January 6th, how Capitol Police officers view Trump and his actions from that day, and how Gonell has to interact with members of his own family who still support Trump.Free subscribers can watch the first five minutes of the interview. Consider becoming a paid subscriber today to watch the full segment.In case you missed it, here are some recent stories from Zeteo:

The most dramatic moment of the evening occurred near the beginning of Trump's rambling, Congressional Address. Congressman Al Green, a democrat from Texas, screamed. "You have no mandate to cut Medicaid!" Trump was beginning his flurry of lies, half-truths, ridiculous exaggerations when Green, clutching his cane, had had enough. Eventually, the worst Speaker in History, ordered Capitol Police to haul Congressman away. Green told reporters outside the House Chamber that he could not sit silently by as Republicans attempt to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and SOCIAL SECURITY! Yup. Even though Trump has said he has no plans to cut these programs, Congressional Republicans are drafting the legislation right now, and Trump has not repeated his promise not to touch Social Security. Instead he repeated the MUSK LIES. Trump, Musk, and MAGA Mike Johnson have all claimed that Social Security is filled with graft and corruption and that 200-year-olds are getting checks. In this podcast I quote from several sources, including a Los Angeles Times article called "Trump, The GOP, and Doge have launched their attack on your social security. START WORRYING." Here's the link: https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2025-03-04/trump-the-gop-and-doge-have-launched-their-attack-on-your-social-security-start-worrying Another great source that Fact Checks the Trump - Musk - Johnson Lies can be found here: https://www.politifact.com/article/2025/feb/17/are-150-year-old-americans-receiving-social-securi/ Please share and subscribe. 

Congressional Democrats are threatening to disrupt President Trump’s address to the nation tonight. They’re nothing more than petulant children. Capitol Police should drag them out of the chamber and toss them out of the building.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Harry Dunn, former U.S. Capitol Police officer, delivers a passionate critique of MAGA hypocrisy, Donald Trump’s actions, and the complicity of Republican leaders like Mitch McConnell. Dunn sheds light on the betrayal faced by law enforcement officers during and after January 6th, urging Americans to stay vigilant as the fight for democracy continues.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Pamela Hemphill, known as “MAGA Granny,” who attended the January 6th riot, served 60 days in prison, and is now finishing probation. Despite Trump's mass pardons for Jan 6 rioters, Pam has been outspoken in rejecting his clemency, arguing it dishonors the Capitol Police and undermines accountability. We discuss the dangers of rewriting history, the radicalization of Trump's supporters, and the role of media in spreading propaganda. Pam also shares her journey of breaking free from MAGA disinformation and her frustration with Congress for failing to stand up to Trump's authoritarian agenda.

President Trump pardons more than 1,500 January 6 prisoners in the first of nearly 200 sweeping executive orders to undo the Biden administration's tragic policies. Trump ally Jack Posobiec hints at what comes next for the J6 Committee, the Capitol Police officers who testified before it, and all the people who lied to America about the insurrection after Biden issues a sweeping preemptive pardon on his way out the door. After Biden pardons his family at the eleventh hour, we are reminded of the Left's own statements about pardons being an expression of guilt. 

Wednesday, January 17th, 2024Jury selection and opening statements kicked off day one of the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial in New York; Trump won the GOP Iowa caucus with embarrassingly low turnout; Capitol Police and the FBI have opened an investigation into Roger Stone's comments about assassinating Rep.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Harry Dunn, former Capitol Police officer who bravely defended the Capitol on January 6th, 2021, and later testified before Congress alongside his colleagues. Harry is also the author of a powerful book and a recipient of the Presidential Citizens Medal from President Joe Biden. Together, we reflect on the four-year anniversary of January 6th, examining the lingering trauma and challenges stemming from that day. Harry shares his frustration with the lack of accountability for those responsible, including Donald Trump, who continues to downplay the attack and pledges to pardon the January 6th insurrectionists. We underscore the urgent need to combat misinformation, resist historical revisionism, and push for systemic reforms in policing and governance.

Sometimes we do things that are unconventional in the talk show world and that's okay because we are distinctively Christian. We seek to glorify God, to honor His Word, to see lost souls come to Christ, to edify believers, to be both salt and light, and to be the watchman who will issue a warning when trouble is seen. What you choose to do with the information then becomes your responsibility.We see a nation in crisis. We have just come off a very contentious election with candidates representing polar opposites. We presently have multiple wildfires in California causing so much loss and devastation. At least 5 lives have been lost and tens of thousands are fleeing their homes. Many are praying for both containment and for rain.Earlier today was the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter, the nation's 39th President. Last night as President-elect Trump was set to visit the Capitol, the Daily Wire reports that U.S. Capitol Police arrested a man near the Grant Memorial who claimed to have napalm in his car. Napalm is a highly flammable substance. According to one source, he apparently was trying to light it on fire.There have been assassination attempts and great hostility. Grooming is going on of our nation's children both in schools and various media platforms. Our nation appears to be confused as to the definition of terms that we've known since the beginning of time such as "marriage," "male" and "female."Anti-Semitism has been spreading on university campuses with a growing anti-Israel sentiment. Listen to hear callers from around the nation share a Scripture verse for America and a couple sentences as to why they feel it is needed for today.

Monday marks 4 years since the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. We revisit Rose’s conversation with Harry Dunn. The former U.S. Capitol Police officer traveled to Atlanta in 2024 when he was being honored by the Fulton County Democratic Party with the Saving Democracy Award. During the conversation, Dunn talks about his experience responding to the insurrection, voting and the current state of democracy. Plus, we also hear from Dr. Catherine Meeks, a longtime educator, workshop leader and scholar focusing on dismantling racism. Meeks reflects on the insurrection, her ongoing efforts to teach others about racial healing and her book “The Night Is Long But Light Comes in the Morning: Mediations for Racial Healing.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Exactly four years ago, Jen Daulby was on the House floor and evacuated with Members of Congress as rioters amassed and wreaked havoc on our nation's Capitol.   Just a few hundred feet away, Sherman was in the Cannon House Office Building and was twice evacuated by U.S. Capitol Police due to a bomb threat and reports of intruders.The real heroes that day were and always will be the brave police officers who risked their lives to defend the Capitol and American democracy.  With the upcoming certification of the 2024 election amid the years of mass politicization and attempts to rewrite 1/6 history, it is important for Americans to hear the stories of those who upheld the fragile democratic process in 2021 that made this year's peaceful transfer of power (and those of future years) possible. Having never met each other in-person (yet), Jen and Sherman reflect together with a frank and emotional conversation about the January 6th insurrection as an unforgettably challenging day. Hear Jen's first-hand experiences as a House Administration Committee Republican staffer and the operational, electoral, and constitutional lessons that can heal a divided America moving forward. Listen to Part II HERE!

Friends,Yesterday, Michael Johnson was voted in (barely) as speaker by the new Republican-controlled Congress. This Monday, Kamala Harris will preside over Congress to certify the electoral vote, making Donald Trump the next president. The last time Congress met to certify an electoral vote, it was invaded by Trump supporters who threatened the lives of all members along with the Capitol Police, at Trump's urging. But instead of being held accountable, Trump is about to become president. The person who is also unaccountable for wielding power — although in a very different way from Trump — is Elon Musk. He's the richest person in the world; spent a quarter of a billion dollars getting Trump elected; and has the world's largest megaphone, through which he is amplifying lies in support of right-wing parties and candidates around the world, and by which he blew up a bipartisan compromise on the federal budget that not incidentally barred him from working on Artificial Intelligence with the Chinese.

[SEGMENT 1-1[ DEI Divorce: Biden-Harris   Move over, Hatfields and McCoys—America's got a new feud to gawk at. Except this time, there are no moonshine stills, shotgun standoffs, or Appalachian drama. Sadly for Democrats, this is the modern age, where political pettiness is played out on camera; with forced applause and awkward grins as the soundtrack. The players? Joe and Jill Biden vs. Kamala Harris and her “Second Gentleman” (because nothing says modern marriage like giving your husband a title that sounds like a rejected superhero name). The scene? The Kennedy Center Honors, where the Bidens pulled a move so cold Frosty the Snowman had to put on a sweater. Newsbreak reported: "President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden gave a cold shoulder to Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, as they entered the 47th Kennedy Center Honors to an applauding crowd. The president and first lady were seen on video not making eye contact or acknowledging the vice president and her husband as they walked past them and waved alongside them. The vice president and second gentleman remained effusive and applauded the Bidens during the standing ovation despite the first couple ignoring them." First of all, can we take a moment to appreciate the power of passive aggression? The Bidens basically perfected the art of the social snub. No glares, no side comments—just pure, unadulterated “I don't see you, Kamala” energy. That takes skill, or maybe just years of marriage practice. Still, when Joe and Jill Biden were announced, Kamala and hubby clapped like trained seals. Nevertheless, let's hit rewind. This tension didn't start at the Kennedy Center. It's been brewing since at least Veteran's Day, when Jill Biden gave Kamala the cold shoulder so sharp it could've sliced through steel. What's the beef? The plot to get rid of Joe. During the period where Democrats contemplated dumping Joe Biden, Harris quietly circled the Oval Office like a hawk eyeing a wounded rabbit. Everybody knows that she had been "read in" on the coup conspiracy". Remember, this partnership wasn't exactly built on a solid foundation of trust and camaraderie. Biden and Harris weren't teammates; they were co-workers forced into the same cubicle. And just like in any dysfunctional office, one person inevitably starts plotting their takeover the moment the boss trips over his own shoelaces—metaphorically or otherwise. Kamala's mistake? She forgot to be subtle. Harris was to Brutus as Biden was to Caesar. And on the Ides of July, Harris lured Biden into the chambers and it was knives out. This feud isn't just personal—it's deeply ironic. These two were supposed to be the ultimate DEI power couple, the living embodiment of “diversity, equity, and inclusion.” [SEGMENT 1-2] Democracy on the rise? Subscribers and BSC I did my first podcast for Subscribers and I must say it is one of my best. Thanks Bill for reminding me that we needed to kick that off. Talk about a special broadcast. Only 14 people will get to hear it. But it's 14 of the finest people on the planet. I had a BLAST putting that together for you. For members of The Back Stage Club, get ahold of me, and we will make the broadcast available to you as well. I will do at least one of those every couple of weeks (minimum), and on BSC, we post things as we develop them. They come more in batches, but I will work on more consistency there too. I have observations from Japan, Mexico, and soon to be Thailand along with pictures and videos. Also, I found the video I made with Justice Thomas, so expect me to post that soon.     We Saved the Republic: The Fragile Triumph Over Chaos The last election preserved the constitutional republic we hold dear, narrowly steering the nation away from the precipice of destruction. Over the past 16 years, Democrats have spent 12 tearing at the fabric of the nation, creating cultural and political divides so wide that chaos seemed inevitable. A Harris presidency would have only accelerated this unraveling. Thankfully, we avoided that scenario. But the specter of such leadership reminds us how close we came to disaster. A Nation at Rest—or at Least at Pause Despite the dire warnings from the left, America hasn't plunged into chaos since Trump's return to the political arena. Recent events suggest a marked shift in the national climate. Consider Daniel Penny's recent exoneration—a moment that could have ignited protests led by Black Lives Matter. Yet, the country remained calm, unmoved by the provocations that once would have led to streets filled with unrest. This shift raises an interesting question: Are we finally moving past the endless state of cultural panic? Can figures like Darren Wilson reclaim their careers in law enforcement, or could Derek Chauvin see his conviction re-evaluated under a new climate of fairness? Perhaps, just perhaps, white America can finally lower the metaphorical "RED ALERT."Democracy vs. Republic: Are They What They Seem? According to a Pew Research report, as of 2017, 57% of the world's nations were considered democracies. But does this mean democracy is flourishing? By that measure, it may seem like global democracy is at a modern-day high. Yet, appearances can be deceiving. Many of these so-called democracies lack the principles that Americans associate with the term.   [SEGMENT 1-3] FBI at J6 1 J6 is unraveling for the Left. A Capitol Comedy: The FBI's J6 Revelations Newly revealed testimony confirms what skeptics of the January 6 narrative have long suspected: the FBI's involvement wasn't just passive oversight but an active participation, complete with paid informants and undercover agents. According to disclosures during congressional hearings, there were so many FBI confidential human sources (CHS) at the Capitol that the agency had to “poll” its offices afterward to figure out how many were on-site. The cherry on top? At least three of these informants were specifically directed to attend by their handlers.. If this sounds like the punchline to a poorly executed spy thriller, that's because it is. The Numbers Game: More Agents than We're Told? The FBI claims only three informants were actively encouraged to attend. But as a former Capitol Police chief has testified, there were at least 18 undercover FBI agents mingling in the crowd, in addition to an estimated 20 undercover operatives from the Department of Homeland Security. Defense attorneys in Proud Boys trials also revealed that eight CHSs had infiltrated their group, and at least one was physically inside the Capitol during the breach​. This raises the question: if we were told it was a spontaneous “insurrection,” why did federal agencies embed dozens of operatives in advance? Was this infiltration an attempt to mitigate violence—or to stoke it? FBI operations, including infiltrating groups or rallies, typically require meticulous planning and oversight. [SEGMENT 1-4] FBI at J6 2   [X] SB – Kamala Harris on J6 [X] SB – Paid protester on J6 [X] SB – Congressman speaks on the number of agents at J6   The FBI's focus on January 6 highlights a troubling pattern. While the bureau assigns agents to monitor political rallies, it seems conspicuously less effective at preventing other, more tangible threats. We've seen this pattern before—mass shooters who were already on FBI watchlists, an open southern border exploited by known terrorists, and even whistleblowers within the agency alleging systemic dysfunction​ If the FBI's resources were deployed to prevent violence, they failed spectacularly. If the goal was to justify the post-election crackdown on Trump supporters, well, they've done a bang-up job.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Sara discusses a breaking report that the FBI had 26 confidential human sources at the Capitol on January 6. How many of them were wearing MAGA clothes? Around the same time as this report, FBI Director Wray resigned from his position before Donald Trump could take office. Donald Trump also claims that he will pardon J6 defendants within the first hour of taking office. Another new report reveals that the Capitol Police officer who shot Ashli Babbitt should have been fired long ago. Donald Trump was just named Time magazine's Person of the Year for a second time.

//The Wire// Election Night, November 5, 2024////ROUTINE////BLUF: AMERICAN POLLING PLACES CLOSE LARGELY WITHOUT SECURITY INCIDENTS. MANY INDICATIONS OF WIDESPREAD ELECTION IRREGULARITIES REPORTED ALONGSIDE RECORD HIGH VOTER TURNOUT.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: This afternoon PM Netanyahu dismissed Minister of Defense Gallant in a surprise move likely intended to remove moderates from his cabinet. Widespread protests and rioting has resulted from this decision, as a large portion of Israeli society sees this as a consolidation of power that increases the potential for war. Due to Gallant's comparatively moderate stance on Iran, most viewed him as a balancing persona in the battle of social appeal regarding a potential conflict with Iran.-HomeFront-USA: The Presidential election was carried out throughout the day, with most reporting indicating a strong lead favoring Trump throughout most of the day as conservative turnout was higher, and liberal turnout was lower throughout many critical swing-states. Multiple bomb threats were allegedly called in at polling centers around the nation, and multiple instances of suspicious packages being found have been reported in a similar fashion. As of this report, all threats against polling places have been found to be false-alarms and not credible.Pennsylvania: Sporadic reports throughout the day indicate varying issues statewide, mostly pertaining to issues with voting machines early this morning. Widespread issues with voting machines not functioning were reported mostly in Philadelphia immediately upon the polls opening, with many voters being told that the machines were “down” in some fashion (with no further explanation readily apparent), which caused the already-very-long voting lines to become even longer. Limited reports also suggest that authorized Republican poll watchers were prevented from accessing polling sites throughout Pennsylvania.Wisconsin: This afternoon the city of Milwaukee announced a re-count of one district's ballots due to one tabulator machine reportedly being unsecured for a period of time, in violation of election law. To ensure that the ballots are not tainted, roughly 30,000-40,000 ballots will be recounted tonight.Washington D.C. – This afternoon a man carrying a flare gun and a torch was arrested at the US Capitol visitor's center after bystanders noticed he smelled of fuel (likely gasoline). Capitol Police are investigating the incident, with no further details being made public at this time.Washington State: Far left activists have already begun civil unrest operations throughout Seattle, as was previously planned weeks ago. AC: Most of the unrest so far has been fairly typical for that of the region, though by morning rioting could become more significant in the event of a Trump victory.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: As many expected based on the past 4 years of little effort to secure our elections (and overwhelming efforts to do the exact opposite), the playbook being essentially the same as in 2020 should have been a surprise to no one. Most of the highly questionable election events have pertained to Georgia (which poll watchers were hesitant to call for Trump, despite his substantial lead with almost all ballots counted), and Pennsylvania, which somehow had trouble counting their votes with expediency (echoing the suspicious activities of 2020 by keeping the count going late into the night when most people are asleep).Generally speaking, the plan among most conservatives has revolved around voter turnout out-pacing the very obvious election rigging taking place in many critical districts, with the overall strategic goal of spreading the election fraud thin enough to be less significant. Only time will tell if this effort was successful, though in many states the overwhelming support for Trump has been di

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Steve Baker reveals shocking new documents from the Department of Defense, showing that Capitol Police's request for National Guard support during the January 6 events was obstructed. Despite claims that President Trump denied assistance, these records prove he ordered the National Guard to ensure safety. Steve and Sara emphasize how January 6 was manipulated by the Left to target conservatives, framing it as an orchestrated event designed to entrap Trump supporters. John Doyle joins the conversation as Sara and her guests shift focus to Vice President Kamala Harris. Clips from her interview with Oprah Winfrey highlight Harris' inability to provide clear answers on key issues like the rising cost of living. John and Steve criticize her incoherent responses, while the trio mocks her contradictory remarks on gun ownership, which have caused confusion within her own party. The discussion turns to testimony from former San Diego Sector Border Patrol Chief Aaron Heitke, who exposed how the Biden-Harris administration suppressed information about known terrorists crossing the southern border. Sara and her guests express outrage over the administration's concealment of these threats, calling it treasonous. Sara also speaks with pro-life activist Bevelyn Beatty Williams, who was sentenced to 41 months in prison for peacefully protesting at abortion facilities. Williams details how the government weaponizes laws like the FACE Act to target Christians and conservatives, warning of the growing persecution under the current administration. Later, the group discusses the latest on Sean "Diddy" Combs, who is reportedly on suicide watch following serious allegations, including racketeering and sex trafficking. Sara, Steve, and John speculate on whether this is the first of many revelations to come, comparing it to high-profile scandals like Jeffrey Epstein's. Sara was joined by BlazeTV contributor John Doyle, host of "Heck Off, Commie!" and Blaze Media investigative journalist Steve Baker.

From January 8, 2021: The storming of the Capitol on Wednesday was a catastrophic failure of protective law enforcement, as rioters overran Capitol Police barricades and gained access to a building that a lot of police were supposed to be protecting. How did it happen? Who screwed up? And what can be done about it? Benjamin Wittes sat down with Fred Burton, the executive director of the Center for Protective Intelligence at Ontic and a former protective officer; Garrett Graff, a journalist who covers federal law enforcement and who wrote a book about continuity in government; and Lawfare's executive editor Susan Hennessey. They talked about how bad the failure was on the part of the Capitol Police, who is responsible for it, what can be done now to bring the perpetrators to justice and how we should think about changing security protocols on Capitol Hill going forward.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Blaze Media investigative journalist Steve Baker joins Sara to explore the controversial investigation of the January 6 pipe bomb incident, highlighting questionable actions by Capitol Police and increasing distrust in government institutions. They scrutinize Kamala Harris' recent DNC remarks, revealing inconsistencies about the January 6 events and Donald Trump's role. A significant political shift is discussed as Tulsi Gabbard officially endorses Donald Trump, signaling a potential realignment in American politics. The upcoming debates are examined, focusing on Kamala's demands for seated formats and note usage, which Trump's team opposes, positioning the debates as pivotal moments in the campaign. The Biden administration faces intense scrutiny with President Biden's frequent absences and time spent at wealthy donors' homes raising questions about his leadership and possible behind-the-scenes influence by Barack Obama. Reports of Biden's physical decline are discussed, questioning the ethics of keeping him active despite health concerns. The conversation criticizes the Democratic Party's loyalty to power over people, especially as it turns on RFK Jr. following his endorsement of Trump. Reflecting on the third anniversary of the Afghanistan withdrawal in August 2021, Sara highlights Biden's vacation instead of honoring fallen soldiers, which contrasts sharply with Trump's respect for the military, emphasizing leadership differences. Kamala Harris is also criticized for her role in the withdrawal decision, condemning the administration's handling of veterans and the abandonment of Americans. Sara shifts focus to Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski's departure from Europe after Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was arrested in France for failing to censor speech. The panel discusses the implications for freedom of expression, advocating for the repeal of Section 230 and warning of potential authoritarian measures in the U.S. similar to Europe if elections don't favor them. The episode concludes with a teaser for tomorrow's show, during which Sara will uncover shocking details about a drag show for children in Dallas, Texas, urging viewers to tune in and spread awareness.
