Joining me today is Derrick Broze, here to discuss his recent series, The Technocratic Trump Administration, as well as his latest update on the Fluoride Lawsuit—regarding the Trump administration's efforts to continue appealing the historic ruling that would help Make America Healthy Again. We unpack the confounding and hypocritical actions of Trump's cabinet around both topics, and how the partisan base supporting any politician in the two-party illusion is used to gaslight and "flood the zone." We also dive into the current status of the Epstein debacle, and the ever-growing control grid being built around us. !function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u2q643"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");   Rumble("play", {"video":"v703jre","div":"rumble_v703jre"}); Source Links: The Last American Vagabond Derrick Broze, Author at The Last American Vagabond The Pyramid of Power Crowdsource Effort! - The Conscious Resistance Network The Pyramid Of Power - The Pyramid of Power Crowdsource Effort! - The Conscious Resistance Network New Tab (22) Catherine Herridge on X: "Straight to the Point Exclusive: FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash said FBI is working with DOJ to meet the Epstein Files Transparency Act 30 day deadline to produce records.

David J. Bier is the associate director of immigration studies at the Cato Institute. He is an expert on legal immigration, border security, and interior enforcement. He recently testified before the House Committee on Homeland Security, on immigration policy issues. He was invited to discuss how the border crisis is affecting Americans. However, the committee did not let him speak to the extent that he had hoped to, often interrupting Bier while questioning him. Host Chris Lyon catches up with David on his testimony and the things he wanted to get across to the committee.

Bier, Associate Director of Immigration Studies at the Cato Institute, joins us to talk about the border policies in place before Title 42, the programs that have been introduced since, and what we can expect still.Featured Guest: David J.

Fentanyl overdoses tragically caused tens of thousands of preventable deaths last year. Many politicians who want to end U.S. asylum law claim that immigrants crossing the border illegally are responsible. An NPR‐​Ipsos poll last week found that 39 percent of Americans and 60 percent of Republicans believe, “Most of the fentanyl entering the U.S. is smuggled in by unauthorized migrants crossing the border illegally.” A more accurate summary is that fentanyl is overwhelmingly smuggled by U.S. citizens almost entirely for U.S. citizen consumers.David J. Bier is the associate director of immigration studies at the Cato Institute. He is an expert on legal immigration, border security, and interior enforcement.

The United States can create a more humane immigration system; in fact, it's been done before, says policy analyst David J. Bier.
