Congressman Don Bacon introduced legislation Thursday that would increase criminal penalties for anyone convicted of killing or conspiring to kill public safety officers. The so-called ‘Back the Blue Act' would also create mandatory minimums for assaulting a federally funded law enforcement officer, which could include a firefighter, chaplain, federal judge or rescue squad member. If a death occurs, there is a mandatory minimum sentence of 30 years. Attempting to flee to avoid prosecution carries a minimum of 10 years.

When Cybercom was created in 2006, its commander was dual-hatted as the commander of the National Security Agency. The expectation then was that the two organizations would eventually be separated. But in a world of increasing cyber threats, some argue that the current situation works just fine. Here to make that case is the Chairman of the Cyber, Information Technologies, and Innovation (CITI) subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Don Bacon.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jim is back though Greg is gone for today's 3 Martini Lunch. In his stead is radio personality Craig Collins. Join Craig and Jim as Independence Day week kicks off with a good, a bad, and a crazy bit of news. The week begins with Canada rescinding their digital service tax in response to Mr. Trump's Truth Social post, North Caroline Senator Thom Tillis and Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon will not be seeking reelection, and a Gallup poll finds that pride in America is significantly down from last year. First, Craig and Jim are pleased that just two days after Trump declared on Truth Social that he was suspending trade talks with Canada over their digital services tax, Canada announces they're rescinding the tax. Jim argues this tax to be particularly unfair and discriminatory toward U.S. businesses. Craig notes how Trump has been following through on his threats, and Canada seems unwilling to test him on this. Next, they mourn the bad news that North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis AND Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon will not be seeking reelection. Because the Republican Party won by narrow margins in those states, Jim worries this may swing states blue making it a good week for the DSCC and DCCC.Last, they are aghast at the recent Gallup poll which shows pride in America to be down significantly from last year particularly among Democrats. Jim is amused that Democrats felt more pride in the country when President Biden was in office. Ultimately, Jim and Craig argue that pride in one's country should not be contingent upon who is in office. Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

A violent ambush in Idaho has resulted in the deaths of two firefighters and left one more injured. The Senate has commenced a "Vote-a-rama" related to Big Beautiful Bill. Senator Thom Tillis and House GOP member Don Bacon have announced that they will not seek re-election. Additionally, a rude guest behavior is negatively impacting the experience of Disneyland rides for other visitors.
We open a short week of work by discussing Congressman Don Bacon's decision to not run for re-election. We also chat with Tim Hruza about Bacon's decision and local politics. And we preview a busy week in Husker Football recruiting with Mike Schaefer of Husker247!
Chuck Todd reacts to the news that North Carolina senator Thom Tillis won't seek reelection, why harassment from the Trump team led to his decision, and why his decision gives Democrats another opportunity to pick up a senate seat in the 2026 midterm elections. He also highlights the path for Democrats to win the senate in 26' and cautions Republicans about the potential of a Democratic president abusing their power in a similar way to Trump.Then, Chuck sits down with renowned pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson to dissect the seismic shifts in American politics following the 2024 election. They dive deep into the surprising demographic realignments that defined Trump's victory, including his unprecedented gains with young and Latino voters, while exploring whether traditional demographic-based political messaging has become obsolete. Anderson shares insights from Pew Research's unique voter validation methodology and explains why the biggest story of 2024 wasn't who showed up to vote, but rather the millions of Biden 2020 supporters who stayed home.The conversation spans from foreign policy contradictions—where only 8% support attacking Iran but majorities back preventing Iranian nuclear weapons—to the evolving nature of political coalitions and whether we're witnessing a return to pre-Obama era electoral patterns. Anderson and Todd examine the psychological profile of different generations, particularly Gen Z's political malleability and loss of societal trust shaped by COVID, while discussing the future challenges facing pollsters as AI technology threatens traditional survey methodology. They conclude by analyzing whether 2024 represented a "vote for" or "vote against" election, and how both parties must adapt to meet an increasingly anti-establishment electorate.Finally, Chuck answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment about baseball, the media, and the prospects of Republican congressman Mike Lawler running for governor in New York.Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction01:00 Senator Thom Tillis won't seek reelection02:00 Tillis struggled to fully embrace Trumpism/MAGA03:00 Tillis felt harassed by the Trump team05:30 Rep.

(The Center Square) – The House barely passed a controversial rescissions package Thursday, pulling billions in already allocated federal funding from multiple foreign aid and public broadcasting programs. The Rescissions Act of 2025, compiled by the Office of Management and Budget, cancels $9.4 billion, including $8.3 billion for non-life saving foreign assistance and $1.1 billion for public broadcasting systems. Six Republicans initially opposed the package, endangering the bill's passage since all Democrats present voted against it. But two of the holdouts — Reps. Nick LaLota, R-N.Y., and Don Bacon, R-Neb., — flipped their votes last-minute, making the final vote 214-212.Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxxFull story: https://www.thecentersquare.com/national/article_d72c2dd9-abd6-4410-a9ef-58a408cffc02.html

This information and scripts for emails and phone calls are available here: https://plantnebraska.org/how-to-help/advocacy.html The President's proposed Fiscal Year 2026 “Skinny Budget” threatens to eliminate the U.S. Forest Service's State, Private, and Tribal Forestry (SPTF) programs—a move that would have devastating consequences for communities, volunteer fire departments, landowners, and forests across Nebraska. These programs directly support wildfire prevention, volunteer fire departments, reforestation, community forestry, forest health, and rural economic resilience. Their elimination would leave Nebraska communities without the resources, tools, and partnerships needed to protect lives, property, and the environment. These programs provide funding for various community forestry activities, including: NFS technical assistance to help communities make informed decisions, such as tree inventories, inventory software access, evaluation of at-risk trees, arborist training, municipal staff training, tree board assistance, ordinance drafting, forest management support, and much more. Support for programs like Tree City USA, Tree Care workshops, and events. Arborist support includes low-cost or free CEU trainings and arborist prep. Forest health diagnostics and monitoring. Pass-through funding for initiatives like the Free Tree for Fall Tree Planting program and the IRA. In addition, federal funding provides: Equipment and training for volunteer fire districts Wildfire mitigation funding Forest management activities. You can take immediate action to help preserve these essential programs by: 1. Contact Nebraska's Congressional Delegation Reach out to your Representative and U.S. Senators by phone, email, or letter and urge them to protect funding for SPTF programs in the FY 2026 budget.

Send us a textThe Pentagon is embroiled in a crisis of credibility as Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth finds himself caught in a web of contradictions over information security practices. What began as a seemingly straightforward disciplinary action against alleged leakers has evolved into a revealing portrait of double standards at the highest levels of military leadership.When three senior Pentagon advisors—Dan Caldwell, Colin Carroll, and Darren Selnick—were unceremoniously escorted from the building and subsequently fired, they raised a troubling claim: they were never told what specific information they allegedly leaked, nor were they given any opportunity to defend themselves. "We have not been told what we're being investigated for," Caldwell stated bluntly in a follow-up interview, questioning whether a legitimate investigation ever took place.The situation took a dramatic turn when reports emerged that Secretary Hegseth himself had been sharing sensitive operational details about military strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen—not through secure government channels, but in Signal chat groups that included family members. This followed an earlier incident where Hegseth participated in another Signal group that accidentally included a journalist from The Atlantic. Security experts and congressional representatives have expressed alarm, with Rep. Jim Himes highlighting that "preparations for an attack... are to be classified top secret."This controversy strikes at fundamental questions about accountability and equal application of rules. While Hegseth publicly decried leakers and anonymous sources as "hoaxsters," his own information-sharing practices appear to violate the very standards he's enforcing among his staff. Rep. Don Bacon, a Republican and retired Air Force general, described Hegseth's actions as "amateur hour," noting that "Russia and China are all over his phone and for him to be putting secret stuff on his phone is not right."What makes this pattern particularly concerning is how it mirrors broader issues of due process throughout government enforcement. As similar stories emerge from immigration enforcement and other sectors, we're confronted with critical questions about the consistent application of rules and the protections afforded to those accused of wrongdoing.Has our rush to address perceived security threats led us to abandon core principles of fairness?

John Fawcett breaks down the biggest stories of the day, including the ongoing challenges posed by RINOs, particularly Congressman Don Bacon, who is attempting to undermine Trump's tariff authority, tariff legislation, the responses from various countries, and insights from President Trump regarding the current economic climate.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Financial markets continued their upheaval today after President Trump has doubled down on his tariffs. The S&P 500 was down 0.8% in late trading, following another volatile day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 563 points, or 1.5%...while the Nasdaq composite was 0.6% lower. This comes as a growing number of Republicans are signing onto bills that would give Congress more power over tariffs. Nebraska Republican Rep. Don Bacon introduced a bill today that would give Congress the authority to approve tariffs. In the Senate, six Republicans have signed onto a companion bill led by Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley and Commerce Committee Ranking Member Maria Cantwell. That bill has prompted a veto threat from the White House. Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson is publicly sticking by the tariff strategy Tariffs aren't the only issue dividing Congressional Republicans as the revised 2025 Republican Budget resolution is scheduled to hit the floor this week. This is the same bill that the Senate approved in the early hours of Saturday morning. At least three other Republicans have said they will oppose it on the House floor. That comes despite pressure from a Dear Colleague letter from House Republican leadership on Saturday and a private conference call on Sunday. And Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was at the White House today. It's his second visit since January. He stated that his country will eliminate the trade deficit and trade barriers with the US, and that he hopes Israel can serve as a model for other countries to do the same.

On this episode of The Chuck ToddCast, Chuck explores why America is undergoing a major political realignment, and why President Donald Trump's approval rating may never recover following the disastrous rollout of sweeping tariffs.Later, Republican Rep. Don Bacon (NE-02) joins the show to discuss the impact of those tariffs on his constituents in Omaha and whether Congress could move to limit the president's tariff powers. They also talk about the need for moral clarity from the U.S. in the Russia-Ukraine war and why abandoning the global order that has benefited America for the past 80 years is a mistake.Rep. Bacon shares his deep concerns about the recent firing of top military and intelligence officials, and they debate whether one—or both—of America's political parties could be headed for a split.Finally, in the “Ask Chuck” segment, Chuck responds to a listener question about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez outpolling Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer in New York—and whether Democrats should rethink their strategy as a result.Timeline:0:00 Introduction3:15 We're in the middle of a political realignment6:00 What if America was a 4 party system?10:30 Tariffs are Trump's Afghanistan withdrawal - He won't recover from it*16:15 Could the turbulence from the tariff destruction fracture the R party? 17:04 Rep.

It is the rallying cry for Christians to start war with Muslims in defense of Israel; a battle cry for Armageddon; a call to commit mass murder in the name of God even if that means allowing the very people Christians claim defense of to slaughter other Christians. Nothing could summarize this better than Nebraska congressman Don Bacon suggesting that if the choice came down to saving the U.S. or Israel, he would pick the latter. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

In today's podcast - Glenn discusses the foot in mouth problems of Donald Trump. First, he talks about Trump's speech at the Road to Majority Conference in Washington where he claimed he has the absolute right to take classified documents because the Presidential Records Act made it legal. On NBC's Meet the Press, Congressman Don Bacon was the only brave voice to claim the emperor has no clothes and said "Sharing classified Iran documents is a crime". Next, Glenn shares Trump's recent social media post where he screams in all caps that Jack Smith is a psycho and deranged and that he should be charging President Biden with some made up crime. Only 6 thousand people reposted it. Is Trump losing his appeal? Then he dissects the audio of the 2021 recording in Bedminster, New Jersey - where Trump talks about his secret documents that were NOT declassified. Trump's violations of our nation's espionage laws were caught on tape in his own voice. Glenn explains how important this is.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
EPISODE 227: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:43) SPECIAL COMMENT: Where is the enterprise, where is the daring, where is the simple nerve of Sophie Alexander, International Affairs producer for the UK's SKY News. As Trump is doing the carefully staged man-of-the-people bit, the same act from the day he threw rolls of paper towels to the drowning residents of Puerto Rico, he hops into the Cuban hang-out The Versailles Bakery and all Sophie Alexander did was shout a question at Trump: are you ready to go to jail? “The emperor has no clothes.” Put her in charge of CNN! Plus: "The Emperor Has No Clothes." No, not me. Congressman Don Bacon of Nebraska, as Trump was arrested for the second time in 70 days. “The espionage act has been used to go after traitors and spies.” Again – not me. Trump himself, last night, after prosecutors let him turn yesterday into one long campaign ad. “I certainly won't support a convicted felon for the White House.” Also, not me. Republican Congressman Ken Buck of Colorado, Freedom Caucus member, signatory to the Texas Amicus Brief-Coup Attempt, who ten days ago said the investigations and the lawsuits and the arrests almost gave Trump credibility and he didn't care and who yesterday changed sides. Like Nikki Haley and Tim Scott did. Like a trickle of other Republicans have. It may stop here. If it doesn't, it may stop Trump. I hesitate to even HOPE that this is where enough of the G-O-P breaks to split the party but the last two days have shown what such a split would look like and it is along two simple fault lines: both conceits are wildly untrue but the Republicans think of themselves as the party of law and order, and the party of absolute prioritization of the military and what has been obvious to the rest of us for eight years is suddenly obvious to many in the GOP: Trump believes neither in law-and-order nor the military – Trump believes only in himself. What happens when it's The Troops...or The Trump? B-Block (23:11) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Tommy Tuberville doesn't show up, meaning Dick Durbin can bypass Tuberville's hold on Military Promotions, and Durbin says 'but that wouldn't be playing the game!' And Pat Sajak retires. Good! He's a schmuck! (28:48) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: MSNBC supplants Fox News atop the cable news ratings for the first time in 120 weeks. You're welcome. Vivek Ramaswamy tries to play the crowd at the Trump arraignment. And Doctor/Senator Bill Cassidy posts an umbrage selfie and makes a huge mistake. C-Block (33:40) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Puppy Simba, on death row at an insanely overcrowded New York pound (34:40) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The day the president of MSNBC decided to try to chase me around the live studio while his pet project was debuting IN the live story and I had to figure out what to say when I called the cops to tell them he was threatening to kill me.See omny.fm/listener for privacy information.
