Podcasts about fbi director christopher wray

This episode dives into two urgent and breaking stories: record-breaking Fourth of July travel disruptions and a stunning whistleblower-driven report alleging the FBI covered up Chinese election interference to help elect Joe Biden in 2020. Tara outlines how whistleblower documents released by Senator Chuck Grassley reveal the FBI knowingly destroyed evidence linking the Chinese Communist Party to widespread absentee ballot fraud using fake driver's licenses generated from stolen TikTok data. The revelations include claims of perjury by FBI Director Christopher Wray, retaliations against whistleblowers, and the alleged laundering of Chinese money into U.S. campaigns—felonies that Tara says reveal collusion between the FBI, Democrats, and foreign actors. From the Russia hoax to COVID cover narratives, the podcast connects the dots in what could become the largest political scandal in U.S. history. Listeners are warned: the implications are vast—and could change everything.

In this explosive broadcast, Tara uncovers newly released emails proving the FBI not only destroyed evidence of massive Chinese election interference—fake licenses smuggled in to produce fraudulent absentee ballots for Joe Biden—but then lied to Congress to cover it up. FBI Director Christopher Wray's own testimony under oath is exposed as felony perjury, as he denied any widespread fraud while deflecting to the debunked Russia collusion hoax. Tara walks listeners through how this corruption enabled the 2020 election cover-up, censorship of Americans, and ongoing battles over illegal immigration. She praises Ron DeSantis' bold actions building “Alligator Alcatraz,” a secure deportation facility removing illegals within 48 hours—contrasting it with Republican governors like Henry McMaster, who do nothing but golf. With Trump fighting mostly alone to save the country, Tara warns this is the defining struggle of our time: whether the United States survives the onslaught of foreign influence, mass illegal voting, and cowardly leaders who refuse to act.

In back-to-back explosive shows, Tara reveals the scope of corruption at the highest levels of government—and the fight to take the country back. First, she details bombshell evidence that FBI Director Christopher Wray committed multiple felonies by lying to Congress about Chinese election interference and destroying records of counterfeit licenses used for fraudulent absentee ballots in 2020. Wray's pivot to the debunked Russia collusion narrative underscores the FBI's role in shaping a false reality and censoring Americans who dared question election integrity. In the second broadcast, Tara covers Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis's call to redo the U.S. Census to strip out noncitizens and correct up to 20 stolen House seats. Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller explains how Democrats depend on mass illegal immigration to inflate electoral college votes, pad congressional representation, and fuel voter fraud through unchecked mail-in ballots. Senate candidate Mark Lynch joins to discuss defunding foreign adversaries, defending life, dismantling bloated federal agencies, and supporting deportation centers like Florida's “Alligator Alcatraz.” These broadcasts lay bare a corrupt system propped up by fraud, censorship, and apathy—and spotlight the leaders willing to fight for America's survival.

In these searing back-to-back segments, Tara and Lee expose the radical left's escalating assault on America's foundations. First, Tara uncovers the shocking rise of Zohran Mamdani, the openly socialist New York City mayoral candidate vowing to seize private property, create government-run housing, and end capitalism itself—policies hailed as the “future of the Democratic Party.” Drawing chilling parallels to Albania, Cuba, and Venezuela, Tara warns this communist blueprint will destroy freedom if not stopped. Next, she reveals explosive new evidence showing FBI Director Christopher Wray committed multiple felonies—destroying evidence of Chinese election interference in 2020 and perjuring himself before Congress while blaming nonexistent “Russian bots.” From massive illegal immigrant voter fraud to state-level cowardice in confronting the crisis, Tara underscores how Trump and DeSantis are virtually alone in fighting to preserve American sovereignty. Together, these reports detail a coordinated campaign to erase the rule of law, weaponize government power, and replace American values with socialist tyranny.

In this powerful back-to-back episode, Tara and Lee tackle two seismic stories reshaping America's political landscape. First, they detail Donald Trump's unprecedented move forcing the University of Pennsylvania to reverse course on transgender athletes, restoring titles, records, and dignity to female swimmers like Riley Gaines—an extraordinary rollback in the culture wars never seen before. Then, they pivot to jaw-dropping revelations from whistleblower documents exposing the FBI's deliberate cover-up of Chinese election interference designed to help Joe Biden win in 2020. Tara lays out the evidence: destruction of critical records, felony-level perjury by FBI Director Christopher Wray, and a coordinated effort to censor Americans discussing election fraud. From record July Fourth travel chaos to corruption at the highest levels, this episode connects the dots between cultural battles and deep state deception—revealing how free speech and citizen scrutiny are finally shining a light on truths long suppressed.

The show opens with a less than optimal jobs report...or does it? We dive into the numbers and the difference between the public and the private sector. It looks like Hamas is ready to reject yet another ceasefire deal brokered by the Trump administration and agreed to by Israel. House Democrats put out a fear porn speech delivered by Dollar Store Obama, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). It looks like Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) released emails today showing how the FBI intentionally hid the investigation into Chinese interference in the 2020 election, meaning former FBI Director Christopher Wray might be in for some serious legal trouble. For two months in a row, now, we have not had a single illegal released into the United States of America. At the same time, it looks like Paramount, owners of CBS News and 60 Minutes is going to settle with Trump over their edits of their interview with then VP Kamala Harris. University of Pennsylvania is apologizing to female athletes and is scrubbing their records of the cheating, confused male, Lia Thomas. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon and Riley Gaines both comment on this huge win for women and girls in sports and in their private spaces. The Democrats are raging still about how USAID has been mostly shut down. Former USAID Director Samantha Powers was on with CNN's Anderson Cooper, dropping one misrepresentation after another. So, I decided to close with an analysis of the calculated moves by Trump to cripple the Left's longstanding schemes of funneling money and using the sewer toward their own foul ends.

New Intel Confirms Iran's Nuclear Program Crippled U.S. and Israeli intelligence confirm with high confidence that Iran's three major nuclear facilities were destroyed in Trump's recent strike. The enriched uranium is believed to be entombed, though not entirely accounted for, with concerns mounting about a possible hidden site under “Pick-axe Mountain.” Trump says he may not need a peace deal at all, though inspections could still be critical. Iranian Sleeper Cells Arrested in the U.S. Federal authorities arrest 11 Iranian nationals across the country, including an ex-sniper in Alabama and a Hezbollah-linked man in Minnesota. The arrests come amid heightened fears of retaliation and infiltration following the Iran strike. Media and Deep State Under Fire Bryan criticizes CNN and The New York Times for spreading a low-confidence intel leak that contradicted broader assessments of the strike's success. He also exposes former FBI Director Christopher Wray for allegedly burying 2020 election interference evidence involving a Chinese operation to help Joe Biden. Wray is now under investigation.

Tara Servatius breaks down a jaw-dropping whistleblower report finally emerging after years of stonewalling by the FBI and the Biden administration. According to intelligence now delivered to Congress by Kash Patel, the FBI buried—and ultimately destroyed—evidence of a Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 U.S. election. Using TikTok-scraped personal data, China allegedly mass-produced fake U.S. driver's licenses to commit mail-in ballot fraud favoring Joe Biden. FBI Director Christopher Wray not only failed to act but, as Tara details, the agency ordered agents to delete all traces of the report, a move amounting to obstruction of justice. Nearly 20,000 fake IDs were intercepted en route to battleground states, yet the intel was never followed up. Tara exposes how mass censorship, legal loopholes, and a complicit intelligence community worked in tandem to suppress the biggest election interference story in modern history—and why America may never recover unless there's full accountability.

Tara Servatius dives deep into two of the most shocking revelations rocking American politics. First, she exposes newly surfaced whistleblower claims that the FBI buried and destroyed critical intelligence pointing to a Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 election—using TikTok-harvested data to create fake U.S. IDs and mail-in ballots for Joe Biden. Tara details how FBI Director Christopher Wray allegedly lied to Congress and orchestrated a massive cover-up to erase the scandal from history. Then, in a dramatic turn, Tara highlights how Democrats are now faking arrests for publicity. NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander grabs an ICE agent's arm in what appears to be a staged confrontation—part of a broader pattern of the left manufacturing “dictatorship” optics to manipulate the media and public perception. From election fraud to political theater, Tara connects the dots and pulls no punches in exposing the truth.

The show opens with something far less serious, but I think says a lot about the elitist mentality. I use a comment by Ana Navarro related to the dairy industry and it helps show everything wrong with the Leftist leaders of today. We continue with more on possible plans for how the US will assist in the operation to ensure Iran never gets a nuclear weapon. Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) summaries much of what I said in my show yesterday about trusting Donald Trump. And, CNN's chief pollster, Harry Eten, says the vast majority of Americans agree with President Trump's stance. Next, we have to further examine how weak and ineffectual the men are in today's Democrat party. Rep. Alex Padilla (D-CA) tried to effectuate tears when recounting his story about trying to barge in and intimidate DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) thinks it's weak and pathetic and unbecoming of what it is to be a real man. Which brings us to the latest copycat stunt pulled by the comptroller of NYC, Brad Lander, who just so happens to be running for the Mayor of the city. He also broke the law and then cried about it. Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) used the opportunity to show she is for illegals first and New Yorkers last. Rep. Elisa Stefanik echoed those exact same thoughts. She also railed against Hochul setting aside $50 million in taxpayer dollars to help illegals with a slush fund for illegal to use to fight deportation. I remind you about the Chinese fake drivers licenses story and how then FBI Director Christopher Wray perjured himself before the Senate. Mike Benz was on Just the News and reminded us all about the close ties between the CCP and the Biden Crime Family Syndicate. The SCOTUS, in a 6-3 decision, said states can protect minors from genital mutilation and chemical castration. It should have been 9-0. CBP announces there were zero illegals who made it into our country in May of 2025. A year ago, Biden's policies allowed 62,000 to cross in May of 2024. Finally, we get a bit of comedy gold from President Trump. We learn more about why Trump calls him “Too Late” Powell, as it relates to the Fed chair Jerome Powell.

The show opens with more discussion over what is taking place between Israel and Iran and what our part is in all of this. I think we have gotten to a point where far too many suffer from over-reaction and melodrama. So, I remind everyone about how President Trump has remarkable consistent and even-handed when it comes to the Middle East and specifically allowing Iran to build a nuclear weapon. Contrary to the Legacy/mainstream media, DNI Gabbard and President Trump are not at odds. In fact, they are completely in-line, but the media is intentionally creating a distortion between them. The president of Israel comments that the evil of Iran has reached the point where it must be curtailed. At the same time, we just discovered a secret underground enrichment facility that may require US bunker buster munitions. Moving to other topics, I remind you that former FBI Director Christopher Wray testified under oath that the only foreign interference they were aware of in 2020 was coming from Russia. Turns out there was a massive campaign by the CCP that the FBI buried because it was in support of Joe Biden. There have been more arrests for assassination threats, yet Democrats like Ilhan Omar (D-MN) keep pour gasoline and flames of those suffering significant mental health issues. The threats have got to stop being made. Steve Hilton discusses the incompetence of Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and how we just learned the LAPD was kept on hold for almost 15 hours when ICE Agents were in need of assistance. At the same time, recently fired Nightline co-anchor Terry Moran says reporters are not supposed to be objective. Finally, it looks like over one million illegals have self-deported. And, in their absence, Americans are back-filling those open positions in companies and are getting paid real wages.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/04/2025): 3:05pm- During Tuesday's press briefing, Peter Doocy asked White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about former President Joe Biden's reliance on the auto pen for pardons. Doocy's investigation concluded that Biden's authentic signature only appears on the former president's pardon of his son Hunter Biden. 3:10pm- New York City mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo doesn't know how to order bacon, egg, and cheese—and some New Yorkers are saying Cuomo should be disqualified for his awkward breakfast sandwich order! Rich suspects Cuomo will win the Democrat Party's nomination—and ultimately win the general election. But Cuomo's political ambitions don't end there—he's definitely interested in a 2028 presidential run. 3:20pm- On August 24th, 2021, then New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was forced to resign following a State Attorney General report which determined he sexually harassed multiple women—including state employees. Now, he is poised to become the next mayor of New York City. Is this quietly one of the most bizarre political comebacks in American history? It certainly demonstrates the Democrat Party's continued struggles to find quality candidates. 3:40pm- According to reports, two Chinese nationals affiliated with Michigan University have been charged with smuggling a biological pathogen into the United States. The pathogen, according to the FBI, “is responsible for billions of dollars in economic damage world-wide every year.” Fox News correspondent David Sprunt reports that the deadly fungus could be used for “agro-terrorism.” 4:00pm- A video released by the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party shows “two brave anti-Chinese Communist Party students” speaking out against a CCP Ambassador who inaccurately touted Chinese “democracy” during a Harvard University event last year. In response, the protesters were “assaulted,” according to the House Select Committee—but instead of punishing their attacker, Harvard reprimanded them for taking a stand against the CCP! 4:30pm- While appearing on Face the Nation with host Margaret Brennan, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Trump Administration is not necessarily trying to “decouple” from China, but that the U.S. must “de-risk” from China. According to FBI estimates, China's intellectual property theft alone costs the U.S. economy between $225 billion and $600 billion annually. 4:40pm- Are we all going to turn into fungus people? Or is it fungi people? 5:05pm- Newly released documents suggest the Biden-era FBI's targeting of “traditionalist” Catholics was more wide-spread than initially believed.

In this wide-ranging and explosive transcript, former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reportedly distances herself from the Biden administration, declaring the White House "broken" and aligning herself as an independent—signaling deeper fractures within the Democratic Party. As internal polling craters, commentators suggest a mass exodus is coming amid revelations of mismanagement, censorship, and failed immigration enforcement. The discussion intensifies with allegations against FBI Director Christopher Wray, accused of lying to Congress about targeting Catholics and allegedly colluding with the Southern Poverty Law Center. The transcript highlights a growing fear among conservatives of systemic persecution, bank account closures, and suppressed freedoms. From Al Qaeda operatives entering through U.S. borders to the Trump family turning to cryptocurrency after being debanked, the message is clear: institutional overreach, political weaponization, and censorship are threatening the foundations of American liberty.

In this explosive segment, former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reportedly renounces the Biden administration, calling the White House “broken” and positioning herself as an independent. Her dramatic departure underscores deeper fractures within the Democratic Party as internal polling plummets and concerns about immigration failures mount. The discussion widens to include explosive allegations against FBI Director Christopher Wray—accused of targeting Catholics and colluding with the Southern Poverty Law Center—fueling conservative fears of political persecution, censorship, and financial deplatforming. From Al Qaeda operatives at the border to the Trump family's move to cryptocurrency after being debanked, the message is clear: unchecked government overreach is threatening the core of American liberty.

Today's broadcasts deliver a searing critique of America's unraveling political and national security landscape. From the fallout of a jihadist attack in Colorado to calls for a renewed travel ban, Donald Trump's executive order targeting high-risk nations reignites the immigration debate. The family of the attacker—allegedly radicalized and still in the U.S. illegally—becomes a flashpoint for the broader failure of visa enforcement and vetting procedures. Simultaneously, former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reportedly breaks ranks with the Biden administration, calling the White House “broken” and declaring her independence—signaling internal chaos within Democratic leadership. Accusations against FBI Director Christopher Wray, involving lies to Congress and covert surveillance of religious groups, further highlight growing fears of institutional weaponization. Amid censorship, debanking, and collapsing faith in government agencies, these segments paint a picture of a nation grappling with its identity, sovereignty, and foundational freedoms.

First up, Ralph welcomes back constitutional law expert Bruce Fein to talk about his reaction to Donald Trump's inaugural address. Then Ralph is joined by Public Citizen Co-President Robert Weissman to discuss Public Citizen's lawsuit against Trump regarding Elon Musk's D.O.G.E task force. Finally, Ralph speaks with Public Citizen's Government Affairs lobbyist Craig Holman about the flood of donations from corporations and billionaires to Trump's inaugural fund.Bruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.Sitting on that platform at the inauguration was probably trillions of dollars held by individuals—not by companies, just individuals—fabulous wealth. And you have to ask, if these are business people, why are you at the political event? Why aren't you building a better mousetrap? Why aren't you like Thomas Edison, looking to find new ways of doing business? It's because all of their profits come from manipulating government in their favor. It's the opposite of so-called capitalism.Bruce FeinRemember that this lust for power transcends all reason, and that we're endowed with that lust.Bruce FeinRobert Weissman is a staunch public interest advocate and activist, as well as an expert on a wide variety of issues ranging from corporate accountability and government transparency, to trade and globalization, to economic and regulatory policy. As the President of Public Citizen, he has spearheaded the effort to loosen the chokehold corporations and the wealthy have over our democracy.The alleged purpose [of D.O.G.E.] is to advance efficiency of the government. But what it's really about is rolling back regulations—the things that give us clean air, clean water, safe food, fair workplace, economic justice, protections against discrimination, and more—to benefit corporate bottom lines, on the one hand, and on the other, to pursue a right-wing libertarian extremist agenda with slashing government spending, especially to protect the most poor and vulnerable.Robert WeissmanMusk said at first he wanted to try to cut $2 trillion from the budget every year. That's an impossibility, since the entire budget of discretionary spending is less than $2 trillion. Apparently, if you're the richest person in the history of the world, you don't actually have to know anything that you're talking about to be taken seriously.Robert WeissmanCraig Holman serves as Public Citizen's Capitol Hill lobbyist on ethics, lobbying, and campaign finance rules. He is also working with European nongovernmental organizations and members of the European Commission and Parliament in developing a lobbyist registration system for the European Union. Previously, he was senior policy analyst at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law, and he has assisted in drafting campaign finance reform legislation (including pay-to-play legislation), and has conducted numerous research projects on the initiative process and the impact of money in politics. What's interesting is that some previous inaugural committees…didn't want to make it look like their administration's on the auction block by taking million-dollar donations from special interests and corporations. And so Bush had limited contributions to $100,000, Obama limited to $50,000 as well—they just didn't want it to look like they're putting their whole administration on the auction block. Trump doesn't seem to care about that.Craig HolmanNews 1/22/25* On January 20th, Joe Biden handed over the presidency to Donald Trump. In one of his last acts before leaving office, former President Biden commuted the sentence of Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier, NPR reports. Peltier has been imprisoned for nearly 50 years following his conviction for the murder of two FBI agents at the Pine Ridge reservation; he has never wavered in maintaining his innocence. Despite Peltier being 80 years old and in increasingly poor health, NPR reports FBI Director Christopher Wray urged Biden not to “pardon Leonard Peltier or cut his sentence short.” Biden ultimately did not pardon Peltier, instead merely allowing him to complete his sentence under house arrest. In a statement, Peltier himself said “It's finally over — I'm going home…I want to show the world I'm a good person with a good heart.” Friend of the show Tom Morello, a longtime advocate for Peltier's release, wrote “Leonard has become a friend over the years and I am so glad…he will be able to spend his remaining years with family and friends.” Peltier's daughter Kathy, shocked by Biden's last-minute commutation after decades of being rebuffed by successive presidents of both parties, said “I'm just thankful that he had the balls and the guts to do it.”* Donald Trump was inaugurated on Monday, making him the first president in the modern era to serve non-consecutive terms. Immediately following his formal assumption of power, he issued a flurry of executive orders, including an exhaustive list of “rescissions” of Biden's executive actions. Among these, POLITICO reports that Trump immediately put Cuba back on the list of state sponsors of terrorism, signifying a return to the bad old days of hostility towards our island neighbor. This is only expected to worsen with American foreign policy being directed by Marco Rubio. Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel called Trump's reversal “an act of arrogance and disregard for truth,” adding “the legitimate and noble cause of our people will prevail and we will once again succeed.”* Another Trump executive order issued Monday formally created the Department of Government Efficiency, aka DOGE. However, it seems that instead of creating a new agency, this action mainly just renamed the U.S. Digital Service – an existing executive branch office – the U.S. DOGE service. Moreover, this newly redubbed USDS does not appear to have a mandate to cut the federal workforce. Instead, it seems to be primarily concerned with updating federal information technology systems. Reading between the lines, it seems likely that Trump is putting Elon Musk in charge of this federal IT agency as a means to dole out public money to the tech oligarch and his cronies, rather than streamline the functions of the federal government.* In more Big Tech news, CBS reports President Trump is “set to announce billions of dollars in private sector investment to build artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States.” According to this report, OpenAI, Softbank and Oracle are planning a joint venture called “Stargate,” to begin with a massive data center in Texas. These corporations are planning to pour $500 billion into this project over the next four years. This will almost certainly be augmented by public funds provided by the Trump administration.* Turning to Gaza, Democracy Now! reported Saturday that both Biden and Trump gave Israel the “green light” to resume the assault on Gaza if Netanyahu felt it necessary. This piece quotes Netanyahu, saying that both presidents “gave full backing to Israel's right to return to fighting if Israel reaches the conclusion that negotiations of the second stage is fruitless.” As this piece notes, Israel killed approximately 200 Palestinians after the ceasefire was agreed upon last Wednesday. We can only hope the ceasefire holds and that President Trump sticks to his commitment to enforce the deal.* At the same time, friend of the show Norman Solomon is out with a piece in the Hill on the class action lawsuit filed by 800 Northern California residents, including Solomon himself, against their Democratic representatives in Congress, alleging that they are “illegally helping to provide weapons to Israel for use in committing genocide in Gaza.” As Solomon admits, the suit, directed against Congressmen Jared Huffman and Mike Thompson is unlikely to get far. However, he does believe both that the funding of the genocidal war is illegal under the humanitarian Leahy Laws and that these lawsuits can apply much needed scrutiny to these members and force them to register the opposition of their constituents to their positions – something with which many Democrats have refused to reckon. Solomon hopes to make Gaza a defining issue in the 2026 California Democratic Congressional primaries.* Two weeks ago, we discussed the American Historical Association's vote to condemn the “scholasticide” occurring in Gaza. Since then however, the AHA has tried to backpedal and delegitimize that vote. On January 17th, the AHA Council released a statement in which they write that while they deplore “any intentional destruction of Palestinian educational institutions, libraries, universities, and archives in Gaza,” the council considers the scholasticide resolution “outside the scope of the Association's mission and purpose.” The AHA Council therefore decided to disregard the vote of its membership and unilaterally veto the resolution. This cowardly and disgraceful decision to nullify the voice of America's historians will ironically be a stain on the history of the organization itself.* In more foreign affairs news, the crisis in South Korea continues to deepen. Last week, President Yoon was formally incarcerated pending his trial before the country's Constitutional Court after he attempted to seize power in a coup. Upon his detention, South Korean political newsletter Blue Roof reported that “Pro-Yoon supporters are rioting… storming the courthouse and attacking the marshals.” Security forces however were able to subdue the rioters, per Reuters. The Constitutional Court will now decide whether or not to remove Yoon from the presidency. Yoon could also face a trial on insurrection charges which would carry penalties up to and including life in prison and even capital punishment.* Turning back to domestic news, the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5, representing the cops of Philadelphia, is currently engaging in contract negotiations with the city – and making outrageous new demands. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that beyond pay raises and better vacation policy, “the police union is seeking to roll back transparency and accountability measures that predate the COVID-19 pandemic and civil unrest of 2020.” Indeed, the FOP is seeking to terminate the department's decade-long policy of releasing the names of most officers involved in shootings, prevent the Citizens Police Oversight Commission from investigating police misconduct, and “restrict outside access to currently available records ― such as those detailing how fired officers return to the force through the once-secretive grievance arbitration process.” Beyond these measures to make the police more secretive and less accountable to the public, the FOP is also demanding outrageous new perks for police officers, including interest free home loans and provisions allowing cops to live outside the state. We can only hope the city remains firm in these negotiations and preserves the public's right to know* Finally, CNN is out with a new poll showing the Democratic Party registering its worst ratings in decades. According to this poll, “a 58% majority of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say that the…Party needs major changes, or to be completely reformed, up from just 34% who said the same after…2022.” This comes on the heels of a January 15th YouGov poll showing that a plurality of Biden 2020 voters who didn't vote for Kamala Harris in 2024 said “ending Israel's violence in Gaza was the top issue affecting their vote choice.” The CNN poll also showed that “Only 49% of Democratic-aligned adults say they expect their party's congressional representatives to be even somewhat effective at resisting GOP policies.” Yet, perhaps the starkest number from this poll is “just 33% of all Americans express a favorable view of the Democratic Party, an all-time low in CNN's polling dating back to 1992.” These abysmal results should be a wakeup call to the moribund leadership of the party as the country drives of a cliff. If history is any indication though, the Democrats will remain asleep at the wheel.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

It's Tuesday, January 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Cuban pastor released from prison Cuban Protestant pastor Lorenzo Rosales Fajardo was released from prison following the United States' announcement that it would remove Cuba from its list of state sponsors of terrorism.  Pastor Fajardo was one of 553 political prisoners chosen to be released as a gesture of goodwill. He had served about half of a seven-year sentence for trumped-up charges. Franklin Graham cited Daniel 2 and urged Americans to turn to God Before Donald Trump was inaugurated and sworn in as the 47th president of the United States in the Capitol Rotunda on Monday, Franklin Graham offered this prayer in which he quoted Daniel 2:21. GRAHAM: “Our Father and our God, Thou hast said, ‘Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.' As the prophet Daniel prayed, ‘Blessed be the name of God forever and ever. For wisdom and might are His. He changes the times and the seasons. He removes kings. He raises up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.' “Our Father today, as President Donald J. Trump takes the oath of office once again, we come to say thank You, O Lord, our God Father. When Donald Trump's enemies thought he was down and out, You and You alone, saved his life and raised him up with strength and power by your mighty hand.” Graham concluded his 3-minute prayer with these words. GRAHAM: “We remember to keep our eyes fixed on You and may our hearts be inclined to Your voice. We know that America can never be great again if we turn our backs on You. We ask for Your help. And we pray all of this in the name of the King of kings, the Lord of lords, Your Son, my Savior, and our Redeemer, Jesus, Christ. Amen.” Trump took oath of office Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts administered the presidential oath. ROBERTS: “Please raise your right hand and repeat after me. I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear…” TRUMP:  “I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear…” ROBERTS: “that I will faithfully execute…” TRUMP:  “that I will faithfully execute…” ROBERTS: “the office of President of the United States …” TRUMP:   “the office of President of the United States…” ROBERTS: “and will, to the best of my ability…” TRUMP: “and will, to the best of my ability…” ROBERTS: “preserve, protect and defend…” TRUMP: “preserve, protect and defend…” ROBERTS: “the Constitution of the United States.” TRUMP: “the Constitution of the United States.” ROBERTS: “So help me, God.” TRUMP: “So help me, God.” Argentinian, Ecuadoran, and Italian presidents attended Foreign dignitaries attending the inauguration included Argentinian President Javier Milei, Ecuadoran President Daniel Noboa, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.   In addition to U.S. President Joe Biden, former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton witnessed Trump's inauguration.  Michelle Obama was the only presidential spouse who chose not to attend in order to send a message of disapproval. Trump: "The golden age of America begins right now!” On Monday, President Donald Trump gave a 30-minute inauguration speech inside the Capitol Rotunda beginning with this memorable line. TRUMP:  “The golden age of America begins right now!” (applause) Once he has implemented his policies, he's convinced that America's reputation will dramatically improve. TRUMP: “America will reclaim its rightful place as the greatest, most powerful, most respected nation on Earth, inspiring the awe and admiration of the entire world.” Trump affirmed two genders. TRUMP: “As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders: male and female.” (applause) He encouraged national pride with the caveat that Americans need to remember God. TRUMP: “National unity is now returning to America and confidence and pride is soaring like never before. … We will not forget our country. We will not forget our Constitution. And we will not forget our God. Can't do that.” (applause) And President Trump referred to the first assassination attempt on his life. TRUMP: “Just a few months ago, in a beautiful Pennsylvania field, an assassin's bullet ripped through my ear. But I felt then, and believe even more so now, that my life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again!” (applause) Read a transcript of Trump's inauguration speech here. Martin Luther King's niece: MLK Day & Trump Inauguration providential Alveda King, Martin Luther King, Jr's niece, spoke up in an op-ed column on FoxNews.com yesterday. She noted first that “It is no coincidence that on the very same day as MLK Day, we will celebrate the second inauguration of President Trump. I believe that God made it so that these two events would align.”   King's main concern was protecting the lives of the unborn. She wrote, “Let us all praise the Almighty that abortion is no longer a constitutionally protected right in the United States. Yet this does not mean that our work is over as a movement. Instead, as we continue to march in support of the unborn, we will also turn our efforts to the state level to protect life through state legislatures.” Biden issues pardons for his own family minutes before Trump's oath Lame Duck President Joe Biden pardoned several controversial figures who have yet to be indicted for any crime.   The list includes Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, General Mark Milley (Ret.), Democratic Senator Adam Schiff of California, and former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney of Wyoming. Then, just minutes before leaving the presidency, Biden issued blanket pardons for members of his own family including his brother James and his wife, Sara; his sister, Valerie, and her husband, John Owens; and his brother Francis. However, Trump prosecutor Jack Smith, former FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Attorney General Merrick Garland were not on the list of pardons. Trump's executive orders set a new course President Trump immediately went to work signing over a hundred presidential directives, reports CBS News. Among other initiatives, he (1) Closed the border to asylum-seeking migrants. (2) Declared an end to birthright citizenship. (3) Assigned the military to border security. (4) Established biological sex definitions of male and female for federal workers and schools. (5) Declared a national energy emergency for the nation's energy resources and rolled back regulations on energy production. and (6) Opened up Alaska to more oil and gas drilling. Trump released his own cryptocurrency The incoming president, Donald Trump, also released his own cryptocurrency over the weekend, reports USA Today. In less than 24 hours, the Trump Coin increased in value by 18,000% -- with a market cap of over $5 billion. And Melania Trump also got her own crypto coin, now with a market cap of $2.15 billion.   Fartcoin, another joke crypto has got a value of $1.8 billion as of today. The total market capitalization for cryptocurrency is approaching $4 trillion. That's about five times the size of the U.S. oil and gas industry. A few less Americans are investing in 25,000 different crypto-coins. 40% of men and 16% of women invested in 2024 — slightly lower numbers than 2023. People most stressed in Louisiana And finally, WalletHub did a study on the most stressed out state populations in America. Louisianans were the most stressed and Minnesotans were the least stressed. Generally, those in the northern states are not stressed, while people in the southern states are more stressed out -- based on money, work, family, and health-related issues. Philippians 4:6-8 reminds us to “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, January 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Once Donald Trump announced that he intended to nominate Kash Patel as the Director of the FBI, the writing was on the wall for the current FBI head Chris Wray. The problem is, FIB Directors are appointed for 10-year terms to help provide some independence and separation between the FBI and the president and his administration. A president can only fire the head of the FBI for good cause. But rather than force Trump's hand into what would be a wrongful firing, Wray "obeyed in advance" and resigned. Wray said he was resigning because, in his opinion, it was best for the FBI. But is it best for the American people? Or for American democracy?If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support us and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Within the 80-page motion filed last week to dismiss Donald Trump's New York criminal case, there's a long list of grievances laid out by his legal team. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord underscore some of the substantive arguments as to why a sitting president might find a pending case constricting, reasoning that there are aspects that could interfere with effective functioning of the presidency. But they also illuminate how these merits are buried deep within pages of hyperbole of alleged unfairness to the president-elect, prompting Andrew to ask, in terms of the facts, “Where's the beef?” Then they turn to some analysis of a letter written by incoming Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, which calls out current FBI Director Christopher Wray with a personal vote of no confidence. Want to listen to this show without ads?

President Biden pardons his son Hunter—a move he'd once promised not to make—and the backlash is immediate. Republicans are calling it a political favor, while some Democrats argue it undermines trust in the justice system. Meanwhile, Trump promises to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray with Kash Patel, a loyalist known for wanting to prosecute Trump's enemies (including journalists), even as his pick for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, faces new allegations of workplace misconduct—and a scathing email from his own mother. Plus, Bernie Sanders finds surprising common ground with Elon Musk, and Cheryl Hines posts a Black Friday thirst trap.
