Podcast appearances and mentions of Dick Durbin

The fellas are reveling in the Democratic Party's absolute chaos, starting with the government shutdown. Anonymous Democratic senators confess they would vote to reopen the government but are "terrified of getting the guillotine" from the deranged grassroots—a direct admission that their base is driving the insanity. The Civil War's second front is a primary race for a chance to challenge Susan Collins in Maine, and it is a certified freak show. Chuck Schumer's establishment candidate, an ancient, unrelatable governor, is facing off against a Bernie bro who called himself an "Antifa super soldier." Maybe Graham Platner would get further in politics with less 1942 SS tattoos.  Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the aggressive, transformational change happening at the Army. Driscoll doesn't hold back, detailing the utter waste of taxpayer money caused by decades of calcified bureaucracy, like how the Army pays double for chicken because of an absurd 1930s mandate. He explains how he and the Chief of Staff are cutting $48 billion in expected spending to prioritize the modern warfighter, focusing on next-generation technology, and why President Trump's “peace through strength” approach and air cover have been vital to these efforts. 00:00 - Government Shutdown Drama: "Guillotine" Fear06:06 - Shutdown as Virginia Strategy09:50 - Merkley's 15-Hour Yawn-Fest & Katherine Clark's "Leeeverage" Gaffe16:10 - Maine Senate Primary: Nazi Tattoos, Antifa Soldiers, and the Establishment's Pick44:48 - King of the Hill: George Conway vs. Sarah Longwell58:33 - Secretary of the Army Dan DriscollOur Sponsors:➢Tell Republicans in Congress stop Dick Durbin's takeover of your credit card before it's too late - https://electronicpaymentscoalition.org/➢Big tax-exempt hospitals abuse the 340B markup program, tell congress to fix 340B.https://phrma.org/340Bmarkup➢Find out the true power of America's oil and natural gas.

Pope Leo is drawing criticism from some U.S. Catholics over his consistent pro-life ethic, particularly after responding to questions about Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich's plan to honor Senator Dick Durbin with a lifetime achievement award, despite Durbin's support for abortion rights. While he said he was not familiar with all the details, Pope Leo expressed confidence in Cardinal Cupich's judgment and emphasized that being truly “pro-life” means opposing not only abortion but also the death penalty and the “inhumane treatment of immigrants.” Senior Vatican correspondent Gerard O'Connell notes on “Inside the Vatican” that the pope's “honeymoon period” appears to have ended as he speaks his mind on church teaching. Also on the show: Pope Leo calls the Israel–Hamas ceasefire "a spark of hope," Cardinal Cupich's new Vatican appointment, upcoming synod gatherings and speculation about the pope using Duolingo to learn German at 3 a.m. Links from the show: Pope Leo pleads for a just peace as cease-fire in Gaza holds Pope Leo tells border bishop: The American church needs ‘to be united' on migration Pope Leo is finding his voice on migrationPope Leo ice blessing sets off social media meltdown Credits: Producer: Ricardo da Silva, SJ Audio engineering and video editing: Kevin Christopher Robles Executive producer: Sebastian Gomes Inside the Vatican is a production of America Media.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, during a contentious appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Attorney General Pam Bondi deflected when grilled by Sen. Dick Durbin about the legal rationale for the deployment of National Guard Troops to Chicago saying "if you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump, you wouldn't have these problems". Also Dick Durbin releases false information about ICE agent raids, a newly released CIA report details Ukranian officials were left “bewildered and disappointed” by Vice President Joe Biden's December 2015 trip to Kyiv, during which he gave a speech decrying corruption as a “cancer” — with the Ukrainians accusing the US of a “double standard” given Biden's family ties to corrupt energy firm Burisma and emphasizing the corruption of the Russian hoax.

The main topic of discussion is the government shutdown, with Flynn dedicating the opening song to Pam Bondi for her performance against "foes" like Adam Schiff and Dick Durbin.

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. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 We unpack the new American Pope's criticism of President Donald Trump where he suggested that enforcing immigration laws is somehow at odds with being pro-life. 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.

Americans brace for fallout amid a federal government shutdown. Meanwhile, U.S. Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois will decline a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Archdiocese of Chicago. And, on the Feast of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, we take a closer look at her special connection to Rome.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”A Claymore Sword on the wall, sweat from a hard ride, and a straight look at the battlefield we all feel but rarely name. Jack traces a line from John Paul II's “final confrontation” warning to today's cultural flashpoints and ask what it really means to fight for the dignity of the human person and the covenant of man and woman without losing our charity—or our nerve. Along the way, we wrestle with scandal inside the Church, why “dialogue” without truth becomes doublespeak, and how honoring those who legislate against life confuses the faithful and emboldens a counterfeit moral vision.Here are the links to Jack's Substack and  X https://x.com/JP2RenewalDownload the Claymore Battle Plan https://jp2renew.org/claymore/Contact us: info@jp2renew.orgSupport the show

Jim and Father Imbarrato bring a strong pro-life perspective to the discussion, examining why honoring a pro-abortion leader undermines Catholic teaching, how the bishops are responding, and what faithful Catholics can do to defend life and truth in a culture of confusion.

We're six months out from the statewide Illinois primary, and the main showdown is shaping up to be the Democratic race for Dick Durbin's Senate seat.

On this episode of In The Loop, host Sasha-Ann Simons and our panel of Illinois politicos size up the candidates and break down the race to replace outgoing Senator Dick Durbin in D.C.
