Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber— Your Soldier of Truth—the Tip of the Spear against socialists—here ready to fight for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—AND—please my friends REMEMBER TO THINK while its still legal—this is the Steve Gruber Show— Here are 3 big things you need to know right now— Number One— Former President Bill Clinton is breaking with Democrats—and says the southern border is a crisis and it must be secured—or else we are in real trouble— Number Two— Former President Donald Trump appeared in person for a session of the New York Kangaroo Court—trying desperately to convince you he committed some heinous act—years before he ran for President— Number Three— Normally Donald Trump in court would lead the way—and the judge in the case—after laughing and being generally jovial in what appeared to be an inappropriate way—actually dumped about 80% of the case against the former President—and I will get to that in a bit— BUT I will start today where we were yesterday—and that is with the war inside the Republican Party—that apparently has turned into a shooting war—politically speaking— Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz delivered on his threat to challenge Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy for the position of Speaker altogether— This is the first time since 1910 that a sitting Speaker has been challenged to vacate the seat—and its not clear how any of this will go—because it appears likely—that it may take Democrats to keep him in the position—and of course if that happens—more promises will be made behind closed doors—and its not McCarthy who is losing here— Its you and its me—its America— Because there is no such thing as public funds or government money—the only way the government gets money is by taking it from us—the taxpayers—government doesn't make any money—they only squander it— Right now we are on the most reckless out of control spending spree in American history and this comes after quite a few notable spending sprees in the past few decades—Our debt stands at $33 Trillion dollars—a number that is so big—it really is hard for most people to even conceive how much it is—and under Joe Biden's deal with his socialist Democrat friends, and allowed by Republicans—the debt is growing by a jaw dropping $2 Trillion dollars a year—or more— To put it mildly—we are screwed—and the people we have sent to Washington to get things back in order—the people we sent to stop the socialists from putting the final nail in America's coffin are failing miserably—they are failing us— BUT the question is—how will this stunt by Matt Gaetz fix any of it—or make any of what the fools on the other side are doing any better—or is it all just a futile exercise now—and something the Uniparty wants in pursuit of the Green New Deal or Agenda 2030—or some other misguided policy that torches the Constitution of the United States? Is Matt Gaetz a gallant hero or is he just flailing in futility in pursuit of something that will never happen? Well he wasn't holding back after his historic move on the House floor—and said the blue team can have the Speaker— However Gaetz may have written his own political obituary by doing what he did—as an ethics report investigating him for Bribery and other serious crimes is winding through the system and is nearly complete—AND with so many Republicans mad as hell—he may get the boot—because a whole lot of Democrats will take great joy in kicking him out too— But there is one other big thing keeping kevin McCarthy buoyant right now—and that is Donald Trump— Speaking of the former President—he had a big day in court Monday—

The guidance — which originated from the White House National Security Council (NSC) — was revealed in a Department of Energy (DOE) memo issued internally to agency staff on Sept. 15 and obtained by Fox News Digital. The memo was authored by Deputy Secretary of Energy David Turk who outlined travel restrictions and stated officials are required to obtain approval from the NSC before attending any global energy engagement. "This guidance sets out a presumption that agencies and departments will pursue international energy engagement that advances clean energy projects," Turk wrote in the memo. "It also outlines a process for seeking limited exceptions to pursue carbon-intensive engagements on a justified geostrategic imperative or energy-for-development/energy access basis." "The guidance rules out any U.S. Government ‘engagement related to unabated or partially abated coal generation,’" he continued. "Carbon-intensive international energy engagements are those 'directly related and dedicated to the production, transportation, or consumption of carbon-intensive fuels that would lead to additional greenhouse gas emissions.'" According to the memo, carbon-intensive fossil fuels include coal, oil and natural gas. In addition, the memo notes that the guidance became effective in November 2021 and applies to all international energy engagements. Turk issued a separate memo in early April 2022, which first outlined how the DOE would implement the NSC guidance and stated that energy engagements that promote carbon-intensive fuels may only be exempt if they advance national security or are essential to support energy access in vulnerable areas. Turk's September memo updated that guidance, stating that for all future engagements, "Departments and Agencies are required to submit exemption justifications to the NSC and receive NSC concurrence before proceeding with a covered engagement." The DOE referred Fox News Digital to the NSC, which didn't respond to multiple requests for comment. Since taking office, President Biden has pursued an aggressive climate agenda, seeking to boost green energy technologies like solar and wind while curbing domestic reliance on fossil fuels like those listed by the administration as "carbon intensive." Biden has issued federal goals to ensure 50% of U.S. car purchases are zero-emissions by 2030 and that the power sector is carbon-free by 2035. However, vehicles with internal combustion engines (gasoline-powered), make up more than 99% of all cars in the U.S. and about 99% of new car sales, according to J.D. Power. And approximately 60% of electricity in the U.S. is generated from fossil fuels, mainly natural gas, while 17% is produced form wind or solar power. As part of his agenda, Biden and senior administration officials have traveled to global energy conference to boost green energy development. And officials have largely been absent from global fossil fuel summits like the World Gas Conference, which former Energy Secretary Rick Perry attended during the Trump administration. The Biden administration also opted against inviting oil and gas industry representatives to the White House Methane Summit in July. https://www.foxnews.com/us/judge-orders-new-york-dole-out-nearly-half-million-legal-fees-nra-supreme-court-victory Judge orders New York to dole out nearly half a million in legal fees to NRA after Supreme Court victory A New York judge ordered the state to pay nearly half a million dollars in legal feels to the National Rifle Association (NRA) after the gun rights group won a major case at the Supreme Court. In a case decided last summer, the Supreme Court ruled that a New York public carry licensing law was unconstitutional and that the ability to carry a pistol in public was a constitutional right guaranteed by the Second Amendment. The NRA was a party in that case, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, and last week a New York judge ordered the state to pay $447,700.82 in legal fees. "The NRA regards the $447K award in the NYSRPA V. Bruen case as a pivotal victory, a symbol that justice is definitively on our side," Michael Jean, NRA’s director of the Office of Litigation Counsel, told Fox News Digital in a statement. "This triumph in Bruen has fortified the Second Amendment in an unprecedented manner, and we continue our unrelenting fight to uphold our rights and challenge those who endeavor to infringe upon them," he added. Jean noted, however, that the payout "only scratches the surface" and covers "merely a third" of the group's legal expenses. Jean thanked the generosity of "devoted NRA members" that helped to cover the brunt of the legal fees for the case, noting that "New York refuses to fully compensate." Before the high court weighed in, the standard for carrying a weapon required an applicant to show "proper cause" for seeking a license, and allowed New York officials to exercise discretion in determining whether a person has shown a good enough reason for needing to carry a firearm. Stating that one wished to protect themselves or their property was not enough. "In this case, petitioners and respondents agree that ordinary, law-abiding citizens have a similar right to carry handguns publicly for their self-defense. We too agree, and now hold, consistent with Heller and McDonald, that the Second and Fourteenth Amendments protect an individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home," Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in the court's opinion, referencing two previous gun cases. "Because the State of New York issues public-carry licenses only when an applicant demonstrates a special need for self-defense, we conclude that the State’s licensing regime violates the Constitution." Thomas noted that the state statute does not define what "proper cause" means, and that courts had ruled that the standard was met by people who showed a "special need for self-protection." Following the court's decision New York legislators immediately passed the Concealed Carry Improvement Act, which prohibits carrying a gun in "sensitive areas," such as stadiums, houses of worship, museums, parks and other public places; imposes revised record-keeping and new safety requirements on retailers; and mandates background checks on all ammunition purchases. Gun retailers immediately appealed to the Supreme Court in January to stop that law from going into effect while the litigation proceeds, but the high court rejected their bid. "We are challenging the ability of the state of New York to target dealers in firearms in the lawful stream of commerce, to put them out of business, which is what the new laws will do," Paloma Capanna, the lead attorney for the New York gun retailers, said. "So it really was unfortunate to see that we couldn't get any emergency temporary injunction against those laws." https://bongino.com/former-kamala-harris-adviser-who-doesnt-appear-to-live-in-california-picked-to-fill-late-dianne-feinsteins-seat Former Kamala Harris Adviser Who Doesn’t Appear to Live in California Picked to Fill Late Dianne Feinstein’s Seat So eager were Democrats to find a replacement for the late Dianne Feinstein’s Senate seat that they apparently didn’t even bother to pick someone living in California. According to the Washington Examiner: The appointment of Laphonza Butler to become California's newest senator is already raising some eyebrows as she appears to be registered to vote in Maryland with an address in that state. Registration records indicate that Butler lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, with her mailing address the same as her residential. She registered as a Democrat as of Sept. 12, 2022. Butler is the president of EMILYs List, the self-described "nation's largest resource dedicated to electing Democratic pro-choice women to office," and a longtime leader in California before her move to Maryland. On Sunday night, the newest California senator's biography on the EMILYs List website listed that "Laphonza grew up in Magnolia, MS, and attended one of the country's premier HBCUs, Jackson State University. She lives in Maryland with her partner Neneki Lee and their daughter Nylah." As of 7 a.m. Monday, the organization has removed the line that she lives in Maryland. Butler was formally Kamala Harris' 2020 campaign adviser. As radio host Dan O’Donnell noticed in real-time, Butler removed part of her biography on her Twitter account that listed Maryland as her location. Similarly, The Spectator’s Matt Foldi found that Butler’s LinkedIn page also listed her location as Maryland. Yet, merely hours after Foldi’s post, Butler’s location according to LinkedIn changed to the “Los Angeles Metropolitan Area.” Before we wrap up today… how about a little on this day in history?

The House battle over leadership conflict rages as Rep. Matt Gaetz (FL-1) seeks to oust Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (CA-20). Does Congress have the votes from House Republicans and Democrats to force this move?

Is this in-House fighting good for our country just before a presidential election? On today's show, the Sekulow team discusses the need for swift conflict resolution in the House, former President Donald Trump's civil case trial in New York City, including puzzling antics from the judge, and the latest news with President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.

For more see: https://www.sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-95 Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo's Chronicles of Japan. My name is Joshua and this is Episode 96: From the Land Where the Sun Rises. We are still talking about the reign of Kashikiya Hime, aka Suiko Tenno, from the late 6th to the early 7th century. We've been covering discussions of the continental influences on the archipelago, especially as they adopted more and more continental practices—both religion and government. This episode we are going to continue the discussion regarding Yamato's interactions, specifically a notably famous trip to the continent and Yamato's apparent assumption of equality between their ruler, the Ohokimi, and the Emperor of the Sui dynasty—the Son of Heaven. We'll also touch on the changes Japan was adopting in their own government as a result of greater adoption of continental philosophy. These are largely seen as a Sinification—a trend towards a more “Chinese” style system—but I want to emphasize that a lot of this was filtered through the lens of the states on the Korean peninsula: Baekje, Goguryeo, and Silla. This is one of the reasons I hesitate to just call it “Chinese”, as Yamato was really blending aspects of several cultural influences, as well as adding their own spice to the sauce. Hence, last episode we talked about Yamato's contact with the continent—specifically the Korean Peninsula—and the various diplomatic gifts, often put in terms of “tribute”, that came over. Besides a small menagerie of exotic animals and Buddhist statues, there were learned monks and various books conveying continental teachings. At the same time that Yamato was starting to experiment with a new, foreign religion—Buddhism—they began to experiment with other foreign concepts as well. They had members of the court studying specific disciplines, and presumably passing those on to others. I want to go more in depth into just what Yamato did and how they trans (Touch on the Rank System and the 17 Article Constitution once again) Now these 17 articles were almost all based on Confucian or Buddhist philosophy; clearly the Court was looking to the continent more and more for inspiration on how to govern, especially as it further expanded and solidified its grasp across the archipelago. Up to this point, much of that innovation had come through the Korean peninsula, by way of Silla, Goguryeo, and, most prominently, their ally Baekje. But no doubt they recognized that much of what was influencing those kingdoms had, itself, come from even farther away. And so, this reign, the Chronicles record that Yamato once again sent envoys beyond their peninsular neighbors all the way to the Middle Country itself. This is significant as they were making direct contact with the mighty empire, the source of so many of the philosophical and scientific innovations that Yamato was trying to adopt. This wasn't the first time this had happened, of course—we know of the cases of state of Na contacting the Han court, and then Himiko of the Wa during the Wei period, as well as several missions immediately after Himiko's death. We also know of the five kings of Wa who reached out to the Liu Song court, though the Chronicles themselves are often silent on actual embassies, making it hard to tell exactly which reigns that occurred in, though it is generally agreed that one of those “Five Kings” was none other than Wakatakiru himself, Yuuryaku Tennou. There may have been other missions. There seems to be some discussion amongst the Liang dynasty records that may indicate greater contact with Japan, but again, we don't necessarily see that in the records themselves. Furthermore, with the fractured nature of the various dynasties since the Han period, and the various conflicts on the peninsula and in the archipelago, it would be understandable if there hadn't been much direct diplomatic contact since about the time of Wakatakiru. And so it is a pretty big thing that we not only have an envoy around the year 608, but that there appears to be agreement for it in the Sui history—though there is one glaring mistake: in the Nihon Shoki they clearly say that they sent envoys to the “Great Tang”, and not the Sui. However, this is fairly easily explained. By the 8th century, as the records were being compiled, the Tang dynasty was, indeed, in control of the Chinese court. In fact, the Tang dynasty was so admired by the Japanese of the day that even now the term “Karafu”, or “Chinese style”, uses the character for the Tang dynasty, rather than the Han. On the one hand it seems as though the scholars of the 8th century would surely have known of the Sui dynasty coming before the Tang, but it is also understandable that anyone would have just thought of the successive courts as a single continuity. Either way, I'll talk about the Sui dynasty, and it is in the Sui dynasty records that we find the corresponding description of this embassy. It starts on the 3rd day of the 7th month of 607. The Chronicles tell us that Wono no Omi no Imoko was sent to the Sui court, taking along Kuratsukuri no Fukuri as an interpreter. As you may recall, the Kuratsukuri, or saddle-makers, claimed a descent from Shiba Tattou, himself from the continent. It would make sense to take someone who could actually speak the language or, failing that, read and write it. This was a peculiar function of the Chinese language, since the various dialects, though often mutually unintelligible, still use the same characters. Imoko, by the way, may have also had connections, but in this case it was to the Soga. We are told in the Nihon Shoki that Imoko was known in the Sui Court as “So Imko”, and the “So” character is the same as the first character in the name “Soga”. It is possible that Imoko was, indeed, a Soga family member, and the name Wono no Omi may have come later. Or it is possible that he was forgotten for some reason. In the Sui history, we are told that in the year 607 there was an envoy sent with tribute from King Tarashihoko, which may have been another name for Kashikiya Hime, or perhaps it was simply an error caused by the problems with attempting to record foreign names in Sinitic characters. According to the history as translated by Tsunoda Ryusaku and L. Carrington Goodrich, the envoy from Yamato explained the situation as such: “The King has heard that to the west of the ocean a Boddhisattva of the Sovereign reveres and promotes Buddhism. Accompanying the embassy are several tens of monks who have come to study Buddhism.” This is great as we see some of the things that the Japanese scholars left out—that there were Buddhists on this mission. For many, getting to the monasteries and temples of the Middle Kingdom was almost as good as making the trip all the way to India. Over all, the embassy appears to have been largely successful in their mission. The ambassador, Imoko, came back with an envoy from the Sui, Pei Shiqing, along with twelve other individuals. According to the Sui dynasty history, they first headed to Baekje, reaching the island of Chiku, and then, after seeing Tara in the south, they passed Tsushima and sailed out in to the deep ocean, eventually landing on the island of Iki. From there they made it to Tsukushi, and on to Suwo. They then passed through some ten countries until they came to the shore. Now, Naniwa no Kishi no Wonari had been sent to bring them to court and they had a new official residence erected for them in Naniwa—modern Ohosaka. When they arrived, on the 15th day of the 6th month of the year 608, Yamato sent out thirty heavily decorated boats to meet them—and no doubt to make an impression as well. They met them at Yeguchi, the mouth of the river and they were ensconced in the newly built official residence. Official entertainers were appointed for the ambassadors—Nakatomi no Miyatoko no Muraji no Torimaro, Ohohoshi no Kawachi no Atahe no Nukade, and Fume no Fumibito no Oohei. Meanwhile, Imoko continued on to the court proper to report on his mission. Unfortunately, for all of the goodness that came from the whole thing, the trip had not been completely flawless. The Sui court had entrusted Imoko with a letter to pass on to the Yamato court, but the return trip through Baekje proved… problematic, to say the least. We are told that men of Baekje stopped the party, searched them, and confiscated the letter. It is unclear whether these were Baekje officials or just some bandits, but the important thing was that Imoko had lost the message, which was a grave offense. The ministers suggested that, despite all of his success, Imoko should be banished for losing the letter. After all, it was the duty of an envoy to protect the messages between the courts at all costs. In the end, it was agreed that, yes, Imoko should be punished, but that it would be a bad look in front of their guests. After all, he had just represented them to the Sui Court, and so Kashikiya Hime pardoned Imoko of any wrongdoing. A couple months later, on the 3rd day of the 8th month, the preparations had been made and the envoys formally approached the palace. There were met on the Tsubaki no Ichi road by 75 well-dress horses—the Sui history says two hundred—and there Nukada no Muraji no Hirafu welcomed them all with a speech. After finally reaching the location of the palace, it was nine more days before they were formally summoned to present themselves and state their reason for coming. Abe no Tori no Omi and Mononobe no Yosami no no Muraji no Idaku acted as “introducers” for the guests, announcing who they were to the court. Then Pei Shiqing had the various diplomatic gifts arranged in the courtyard, and then presented his credentials to the court. Then, bowing twice, he gave his own account of why he had been sent—he announced greetings from the Sui emperor, recognized the work of Imoko, and then provided an excuse that the emperor himself could not make it due to his poor health. That last bit I suspect was a polite fiction, or perhaps an erroneous addition by the Chroniclers. After all, it isn't like the Sui emperors were in the habit of just flouncing off to an unknown foreign land—especially one across the sea. After delivering some polite niceties, Shiqing also provided a detailed list of all of the diplomatic gifts that they had brought. The dance that happened next is telling. In order to convey Pei Shiqing's letter to the sovereign, it wasn't like they could just hand it. There were levels of protocol and procedure that had to be observed, and so Abe no Omi took the letter up and handed it to Ohotomo no Kurafu no Muraji, who in turn placed it on a table in front of the Great gate where Kashikiya Hime could then get it. This setup is similar to the later court, where only certain individuals of rank were actually allowed up into the buildings of the palace, whereas others were restricted to the ground. After that formal introduction, there was a month or more of parties for the envoys, until finally they had to return to the Sui court. When they departed, they were sent with eight students and Imoko, who was bringing another letter to the Sui Court. The students were all scheduled to study various disciplines and bring the knowledge back to the Yamato court. But that wasn't quite so special, or at least we aren't given much more on the specifics of what the students brought back.. What really stands out in the Sui histories is the contents of the formal letter that Imoko was carrying, as it had a phrase that will be familiar to many students of this period of history, and which really connects across the Japanese and Sui histories, despite other inconsistencies. It read: “The Son of Heaven in the land where the sun rises addresses a letter to the Son of Heaven in the land where the sun sets. We hope you are in good health.” Or at least, that is how the Sui histories record it. In the Nihon Shoki they say something similar, “The Emperor of the East respectfully addresses the Emperor of the West.” Here, rather than using “Child of Heaven”, the author made use of the term “Tennou” when referring to the Yamato sovereign, and then different characters were used for the Sui emperor. At the same time, that is one of the reasons that I give more credence to the Sui history.. Of course, however you slice and dice this thing, there are some major airs being taken by the sovereign. Thus it is no wonder that, when the Sui emperor heard this, he was displeased, to say the least, and he told his minister that the letter was discourteous and should never again be brought to his attention. So that's a whole mood. The reason for this may be obvious, as the letter paints the sovereign of Japan as equal to the emperor of the Sui dynasty. That was indeed a bold claim. There is also the fact that they claim to be the land where the sun rises while the Sui are the land where the sun sets, which may have just been referencing east and west in a poetic fashion, but on another level it is almost as if they were talking about the rise of Yamato and the fall, or setting, of the Sui. I would note that we still don't see the term “Land of the Rising Sun”, or “Nihon”, used for the name of the country yet—one of the reasons I continue to refer to Yamato and not just “Japan”. However, all of this is in keeping with the traditions of the Wa people as we know them—the sun was given a special place in their worldview, as demonstrated linguistically, and not just through the legends curated in the 8th century. The Nihon Shoki mentions this letter, but not for this first Certainly, as Japan continued to take on more and more trappings of the continental courts, they would eventually even take on the term Tennou—also read in Japanese as Sumera no Mikoto—to refer to the sovereign. This is basically saying that the sovereign is, indeed, a Heavenly Son, and which they would come to translate as “emperor”, in English. There would be other terminology and trappings that would reinforce this concept, which placed the sovereign of Japan in a position that at least locally seemed to be much more prestigious. Imoko came back from this last diplomatic mission and was well beloved—some later sources even suggest that he may have been promoted for his diplomatic efforts. Oddly, however, we don't really hear more, if anything, about Imoko, and he fades back into the past. And so that covers much of the story of what Yamato was borrowing form the Sui and others during this period.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, Hunter Biden received a $250,000 wire originating in Beijing, with the beneficiary address listed as Joe Biden's Delaware home. The money came from Hunter's Chinese business partners in 2019, which is more evidence against the Biden Crime Family despite Democrats saying there is no proof. There have been zero search warrants and zero subpoenas issued against Hunter or Joe, which is a completely different treatment than Bob Menendez or Donald Trump. Also, the demands of UAW President Shawn Fain for a 40% salary increase and a 32-hour work week have nothing to do with job security or electric vehicles. Fain does not represent the people, but instead, he is screwing the people and a propagandist. People like Fain and Chuck Schumer are trying to process illegal immigrants to replace union workers as fast as possible because they do not stand with the patriotic American union workers. No union boss should have this kind of power. It's shocking how many lawyers in the House Oversight Committee and House Judiciary Committee do not understand the basics or the history of impeaching Presidents. The immigration laws have been intentionally eviscerated by Joe Biden and has not faithfully executed them under his oath of office, which is a violation of the Constitution and meets the threshold for impeachment. A President cannot and must not unilaterally decide he will not adhere to immigration laws and subsequently change the culture of our country. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today David notes a pervasive aspect of social order and law that seems to be wholly missing from the Christian worldview or, more broadly, Christian cosmology. He uses Herman Bavinck, A.W. Pink, William Blackstone, the U.S. Constitution, and a familiar 1992 SCOTUS decision to demonstrate his point. Faithful politics must begin to deal with this forgotten cosmological reality.

A new American organization is calling for criminal investigations into COVID-19 crimes by governors, attorneys general, county prosecutors, and local sheriffs. The organization provides the officials with the template of a detailed grand jury petition or criminal complaint, tailored by state, that can be presented to grand juries by these officials. Peter Breggin MD and Ginger Ross Breggin sat down for an hour with the President of this group, attorney David Meiswinkle, to discuss how to reclaim America and return our country to her roots. The new organization is the National American Renaissance Movement (National ARM). This group is joining the fight for freedom; all Americans should consider joining it. Their goal is creating an American Renaissance, and it's totally in line with what we have been calling for as ReFounding America. You can find the National American Renaissance Movement online at nationalarm.org. National ARM calls for criminal investigations into COVID-19 crimes by governors, attorneys general, and county prosecutors. The organization provides these officials with the template of a detailed grand jury petition or criminal complaint that can be presented to grand juries by these officials. If the success of this freedom enterprise seems unlikely, remember that only one successful grand jury is needed to get the first rock rolling at the start of an avalanche. Consider that a separate movement in the spirit of National ARM called Ban the Jab has already convinced numerous Republican local committees to call for a ban on the COVID jabs around the nation. National ARM was founded by David R. Meiswinkle, who has a strong law enforcement background as a New Jersey criminal defense attorney, U.S. Army veteran, and retired police officer. Peter Breggin recently joined the group as an advisor with Dr. Francis Boyle, Esq. Dr. Boyle drafted the U.S. domestic implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention, known as the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, approved unanimously by both Houses of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush. The National American Renaissance Movement is an inspiring new nonprofit organization creating new avenues to lawfully reestablish the rule of law, bringing back liberty and freedom through applying the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution for American citizens.

Sen. Diane Feinstein (CA) has died at 90. Elected to the U.S. Senate in 1992, she became the longest-serving female Senator, even amid health issues in later years. President Biden lauded his Democrat colleague's legacy after hearing the news. The Sekulow team discusses the California Senator's public service and the process of replacing Sen. Feinstein's seat in the Senate. Other topics on today's show include the pending government shutdown and how it could impact the country, Elon Musk's visit yesterday to the southern border, and how voters view the Left's attempt to disqualify Trump via the 14th Amendment.
A House Republican bill to prevent a government shutdown is voted down in the House when 21 House Republicans vote 'no'. They instead want to pass all the regular government spending bills and negotiate with the Senate and White House on that, and a leader of the group, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), spoke out against the border security language added to the bill, saying it was not tough enough on illegal immigration. But time is short. The deadline to keep the government operating is midnight Sunday, October 1, the new fiscal year. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) has died at the age of 90. She was the longest-serving female Senator ever. Tributes are coming from both Democrats and Republicans.. Outgoing Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark Milley, said at his retirement ceremony that the U.S. military owes its loyalty to the Constitution, not to a "wannabe dictator" in apparent reference to former President Donald Trump with whom he has had public disagreements, even to the point that Donald Trump suggested that some of Gen. Milley's actions would, in earlier times, be punishable by death. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

California Senator Dianne Feinstein has died, hanging on to her Senate seat until her very last breath at 90. The men who wrote our Constitution were in their 30s and 40s, so what does it mean when modern America has a geriatric ruling class that refuses to retire?

Constitutional Chats hosted by Janine Turner and Cathy Gillespie
Court with lifetime appointments. They decide the most pressing issues of federal law. Did you know the Court regularly receives over 7,000 annual petitions for a case to be heard, but only accepts 60-70 cases per year? Did you know the 9 justices get to decide which cases they hear? Did you know the justices employ a few dozen law clerks to help them work through their caseload? Our guest today has the incredible accomplishment of clerking for not just one Supreme Court Justice but two, and a third justice before he was elevated to the Supreme Court.

Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber— Your Soldier of Truth—the Tip of the Spear against socialists—here ready to fight for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—AND—please my friends REMEMBER TO THINK while its still legal—this is the Steve Gruber Show— Here are 3 big things you need to know right now— Number One— Despite Ford Motor company halting construction at the very controversial Blue Oval Battery plant—Michigan is tossing $65 million more dollars at it—seems more like a really pricey lottery ticket— Number Two— The government could face a partial shutdown very soon now as the clock is running out on reaching deal—because the US Senate seems determined to send money to Ukraine and not secure our border— Number Three— The fur was flying on Capital Hill as the first hearing into an impeachment inquiry for President Joe Biden got under way— And it is so predictable—one side gives speeches and then the other side pontificates—and they both slam each other and nothing gets done—and in the end—we really didn't learn anything either— I mean they talked about the Biden family raking in $20 million dollars or more without any explanation of what that money was for—or what was done to earn the money—BUT we already knew that— So, are you as sick and tired of the same old dog and pony show over and over again on Capital Hill? Wouldn't it be nice if the people that ran to be members of the House and Senate, actually meant it when they swore an oath to uphold the Constitution? Wouldn't it be nice—if these people actually put the country and the people, like you and me—above the petty party politics and trying to score meaningless political points so they can win the daily battle on social media? It would be nice—if there was a modicum on integrity to be found inside the Beltway once in awhile—it would be nice if they would actually focus on asking real questions—letting the person asked, to answer the question and see if we can learn something here— I mean wouldn't you want to know if the President was taking millions of dollars so he could provide influence to various governments or groups? And wouldn't you like to know that—regardless of political party? I mean if someone is dirty—I would want to know that! And I would want to know it—no matter what party they represent—and having said that, I don't think anything about getting bribes or peddling influence have any relationship the intentional targeting of President Donald Trump for committing political speech in America— But of course that come up over and over from Democrats on Thursday— Again, it was sadly exactly what we have all come to expect—a damn raucous circus—that arrives at no conclusions—Americans generally tune out—and we the people are the real losers— Frankly, we deserve better— And here is the dirty little secret, that is NO secret at all—none of this is going anywhere—that's right Joe Biden could get impeached—BUT he will never get removed because that takes a Super Majority of 67 Senate votes—and unless there is some kind of massive sea change—or there is mind blowing evidence—the Democrats will never vote to remove Joe Biden from the Oval Office— Which is a bit strange—I mean, Joe getting impeached and removed would likely be the best thing that could happen to the Democrats right now—because it would solve the BIG problem of Joe Biden running for re-election—with the lowest polling numbers of any incumbent President EVER—and it would be enough of an excuse to flush Kamala too—just tie Joe Biden around her neck and throw them both overboard— BUT that's not going to happen and no matter what goes down—Joe Biden is not getting removed from office by way of impeachment—he may have a medical emergency, a mental emergency or a bathroom emergency—all of which could end up with him not returning—BUT short of that—right now Democrats are going to have to live with him as their guy in 2024— Anyway—how about some highlights from the big Impeachment-Palooza in DC— Of course the Democrats—just think poor Joe was being the best dad he could be to his crack addled swindler son—which is about the weakest thing I have ever heard— And its not like this investigation all happened in a bottle—I mean you have Hunter Biden on the record claiming he never got paid—well I am not sure that answer is going to work out for him— And again—with the lapdog media now peeing on Joe Biden and his performance as President—you know things are getting tough for the old man— In the end—this is what I know—

As a consequence of Biden's lawlessness and purposefully sabotaging of our ability to enforce immigration laws, he has committed an impeachable offense and it is not even a close call. The Supreme Court also ruled that Biden does not have the power to give away billions of dollars in student loan forgiveness because it violates the separation of powers, yet Biden has ignored the law until the court can catch up to him – another impeachable offense. As a purely Constitutional matter, there is no question that when a President refuses to faithfully execute the law, or even worse sabotage the law, the threshold for impeachment has been reached. The Democrat argument is there is no evidence proving that Joe Biden did not take a nickel from Hunter's foreign business dealings, but that is not the basis for impeachment, especially when the Biden Crime Family raked in millions of dollars. Also, Mark speaks with Dave McCormick about his campaign to be the next Senator from Pennsylvania and the violence and looting in Philadelphia as a result of Soros-backed DAs.
