Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato gave her quarterly address to County Council, and while there's a lot of uncertainty around funding, there are also things to celebrate. Like more bathrooms in the parks! But if you see any downed birds, be mindful of bird flu and please don't touch.

March 24, 2025 ~ Dennis Lennox, a Republican public affairs consultant and political commentator, joins Marie Osborne to discuss his piece in The Detroit News last week titled “GOP can't afford to put up the wrong Senate candidate.”
Non Government Organizations are misunderstood as non-partisan, charity groups. They have become slush funds for left-wing operations which are being exposed by the Trump's administration and a GOP Senate group. Plus the morning's breaking news on Hour 3 of the Thursday Bob Rose Show for 3-13-25
Always a joy to have Melita Easters - executive director at the Georgia WIN List - on the show, and today was no exception. As of this episode posting she's interviewing author Elaine Weiss, whose latest book, "Spell Freedom," looks back at the underground schools that built the civil rights movement, The discussion is one previously scheduled at the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library. Jennifer Schuessler first reported on this and two otther book event cancellations in late February for the New York Times, "raising questions about whether leadership changes at the National Archives and Records Administration were affecting programming at the 13 presidential libraries it oversees."So a speaking event for books on civil rights, homelessness and climate change have no home at the Carter Presidential Library under the Trump presidency. The National Archives chalked it up to "facing staff cuts," with fuure Carter Library events "now needs approval from Washington for all programming."Whatever the case, the broad and thorough "reach" of the Trump administration into every nook-and-cranny of federal governance is obviously concerning. Weiss' book is notable in that - as we speak - Trump and his Department of Education head is seeking to dismantle the federal agency altogether - which puts more power at the state level. What could go wrong except the return of "Lost Cause" history curriculum like that taught to current GOP Senate leaders like Marsha Blackburn and Lindsey Graham?Well Melita and I discussed the Carter Library / National Archives concern, along with a host of other topics (as we usually do). She's rightfully proud of previous WIN Leadership Academy products like Senator Kim Jackson, who managed to craft productive legislation to address homelessness (unlike that of Houston Gaines, who sought to score political points and exacerbate the problem in larger cities). We talk Lucy McBath, Stacy Abrams & so much more.PLUS: The AJC's Patricia Murphy and Jeremy Redmon both dive into the renaming of "Fort Benning" near Columbus, Georgia, and how clumsily Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth manages to dishonor the man and family he chose to rename the base (simply because he shared a last name with a 'mediocre' Confederate general and secessionist slave owner) and the Army veteran and wife whose names were previously affixed to the base.
Let's talk about Elon and the GOP Senate hitting reality....
Former Kentucky Republican Party Chairman John McCarthy previews the anticipated agenda from the new Donald Trump Administration. Are talks of buying Greenland and controlling the Panama Canal really just red herrings? McCarthy also discusses Kentucky's federal power positions in spite of Sen. Mitch McConnell's choice to step away from his GOP Senate leadership perch.
The GOP found their spine thanks to you. You were instrumental in getting these confirmations done. The silent majority is useless, you got loud and made the country better because of it. Putting the fear of God into the GOP Senate. Building an underground city. If 75% of Americans don’t want their kids learning about trannies then why is it taught in all 50 states? A weak DOJ means there will be no accountability for the crimes the government commits. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the battle begins Tuesday with the hearings for President-Elect Trump's cabinet posts. Every one of Trump's nominees must be confirmed. These hearings will be a test of the Republican Senate majority. If the GOP Senate majority will not confirm Trump's cabinet nominees, then those who vote no must be primaried and defeated. The GOP owes its majority to Trump and his landslide victory. Sen Chuck Schumer has made clear he wants to use the nomination process to weaken Trump and sabotage his entire agenda. Schumer and his thugs must be put in their place, they must be crushed, and their sickening character assassination tactics must be exposed and defeated. The Senate Democrats will go over the allegations against Pete Hegseth not because they believe them, but because it is what they do -- the Senate Democrats are perversely obsessed with sex as a weapon against GOP nominees. The goal is to smear, humiliate, destroy. Later, the Democrats are now starting – rather than change course and apologize for the wildfires in California, they whine about Trump. Gov Gavin Newsom should worry about his state, not Trump. Also, President Biden is taking credit for the achievements of others like Benjamin Netanyahu and the IDF. Biden undermined Israel every step of the way. If there is a hostage deal it's thanks to Trump and Netanyahu. Afterward, Florida's legislative leaders Daniel Perez and Ben Albritton are typical do-nothing Republicans. They are opposing Gov Ron DeSantis's call for a special session to deal with the deportation of illegal aliens and further hurricane relief. All Floridians should get involved on these two huge issues, call your state reps and state senators, call Perez and Albritton, and insist that they act immediately. Learn more about your ad choices.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 77: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump's return to the world of TV interviews is important (and crazy) but the shooting of the head of United Health Care just blocks from my home actually seems to be one of the watershed moments of 21st Century American Politics. We have often descended into the slough of despond that all political parties, voting, law, government, the entirety of the power structure mean nothing and that the only way to change things is violence. I think we're entering such a stage. If so: fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy night. AS TO TRUMP apart from his latest threat to imprison opponents (everybody on the January 6 House Committee should go to jail) did anybody notice his insistence that we are "subsidizing" Mexico and Canada by $100 Billion a year and at those rates they should become states. Wait. What? Mr. Numb Nuts Psycho President? If Mexico is a STATE in the United States – you know, where you are right now – the people LIVING there become CITIZENS of the United States, so not only can't you deport people from the US State of Mexico… but you can't put up a wall between Texas and the state of Mexico and in fact you can't inhibit movement BETWEEN Mexico and any state of the union. I hope somebody told MAGA about Trump's new Mexico solution: make it a state. That'd be two senators from Mexico and if New York has 20 million people, 26 congressmen, Mexico with130 million people at 13 congressmen per 10 million residents would get 169 Congressional seats. Trump proposes giving Mexico 169 seats in the US Congress. Also a GOP Senate operative uses the A-word on Tulsi Gabbard, and a Trump operative is ready to blackmail Republican Senators to get Pete Hegseth confirmed anyway. B-Block (25:00) THE OTHER WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: "Democratic" Governor Polis again sides with Sideshow Bob Kennedy. Laura Loomer isn't just hateful, she's stupid. And Marshal Petain would be proud: Jeff Bezos, Joe Scarborough, and Mika Brzezinski all double down on collaborating with the Trump Regime. C-Block (35:55) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: My Lunch With Elie. How a delightful afternoon getting to meet Elie Mystal meant I did NOT meet Martin Scorsese. That, in turns, evokes the story of Francis Ford Coppola unintentionally paying a former colleague of mine something like a million dollars to be in the background of one scene in Godfather II.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a blow to Donald Trump, Politico reports that GOP Senators are privately telling him that Matt Gaetz has little chance of getting confirmed as attorney general. Yet these Republicans hope Trump doesn't make them “walk the plank,” meaning they remain reluctant to publicly challenge him, even to sink the profoundly unfit Gaetz. In short, it's now clear that one of our only bulwarks against an authoritarian Trump will be the GOP Senate. We talked to writer Jill Lawrence, who has a new piece for The Bulwark arguing that Trump is assembling a “team of outlaws” to run the country. She explains what it means that Republicans are drawing a line against Gaetz—and why the pressure on them will be intense to challenge him when it really counts. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Republicans will open the new year with control of the House, Senate and White House, with the ability to pass a new agenda under leadership from President-Elect Trump. The incoming Congressional leaders have already signaled that they hope to pass tax reform, border security bills and cut government spending. The Senate will have their hands full with the nomination process of the President-Elect's cabinet, which has drawn criticism from some Democratic members of Congress. West Virginia Republican Senator Shelley Moore Capito joins the Rundown to discuss her new role as Chairwoman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee, what pieces of legislation she is looking to move forward in Congress, and what she thinks of the President Elect's cabinet selections so far.

The House Ethics Committee was due to meet this week to vote on releasing a report about Matt Gaetz, who resigned from Congress on Wednesday after President-elect Donald Trump announced he will nominate Gaetz for attorney general, according to two sources familiar with the discussions. If confirmed, Gaetz would take over the nation's top law enforcement agency - the same one that pursued a years-long sex-crimes investigation into the congressman. The Justice Department ultimately decided last year not to pursue criminal charges against him. Plus, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat who could be part of a confirmation hearing - if one is held - speaks to Anderson aboutTrump's cabinet picks and staff nominations so far. Also, former Trump friend Geraldo Rivera gives his take on the recent appointees, quite a few of whom are former Fox colleagues and guests. Learn more about your ad choices.

GOP Senate candidate Eric Hovde shares reports of election fraud in Wisconsin as he considers challenging the results of his senate race. Buckle up. Senate Republicans meet today to select their new leader... will it be Rick Scott? Likely not, but the vote tells President Trump A LOT about the GOP in the Senate. And Elon and Vivek's new job to hunt down excessive and wasteful government spending. Will they find MORE than the $90B Rand Paul did last year? Short Answer: Yes.
Welcome back! Says President Joe Biden to President Donald Trump. Biden promised Trump an accommodating and smooth transition of power on January 20th. Meanwhile, President Trump has been dropping cabinet members as hot as the fire in the background at the White House. President Trump names Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will head a new division called the Department of Government Efficiency. Matt Gaetz will serve as Attorney General of the United States and Tulsi Gabbard will serve as Director of National Intelligence. Jason Thielman, the executive director at NRSC is with me today to discuss the critical Senate races that brought a 53 GOP Senate majority. A few races that looked very promising came up a bit short and Jason shares his thoughts on Wisconsin and Michigan. Then Dan Turrentine joins me to discuss a battered and bruised Democratic party, how they collect their bearing and where to go from here. Turns out Kamala Harris paid for all of her endorsements. What an embarrassment, $1M to Oprah, $500K to Al Sharpton's organization, $10M to Beyonce, $5M to Meghan The Stallion and $1.8M to Eminem. She even paid for her awful appearance on Call Her Daddy. Dan is convinced that Kamala and Tim Walz careers are essentially over and will disappear from the national spotlight very soon.

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Sara exclaims that she is not at all tired of all the winning that President Trump has been doing since he was announced president-elect. Trump is following through one of his biggest campaign promises, border security, by appointing Thomas Homan to the position of border czar. Sara revisits clips of Thomas Homan and his message of a strong and powerful border. Sara and the new border czar emphasize the dangerous journey that immigrants traverse on the way to America's southern border. Sara agrees with Homan that the country desperately needs strong border policies and messaging to discourage immigrants from making the trip. Biden encouraged millions of immigrants to flee to our country, He and his administration welcomed them in, and now the people responsible for deporting them are facing ridicule and condemnation from the Left. Sara welcomes Blaze News investigative reporter Steve Baker to discuss his impending trial in Washington, D.C. The government is selectively prosecuting only those reporters who have been outspoken about the government's involvement on Jan. 6. Steve plans to plead guilty to all four charges and roll the dice that President Trump will pardon him. Trump has vowed to pardon nonviolent offenders on his first day in office. Unfortunately, Steve Baker is going to put President Trump to the test. Sara and her guests discuss the FEMA revelation that workers were specifically told to skip the homes of Trump supporters. FEMA administrators were more concerned with implementing and injecting their woke ideology than formulating a strategic plan for emergencies — all at the expense of the American citizens. Sara and the panel conclude the episode by touching upon the GOP Senate majority leader race. This person will be integral to Trump's administration as he or she will have control over all recommended appointees. Sara and the panel are disgusted that RINOs John Cornyn and John Thune are in contention for the position. Sara and the panel are adamant that they are both plays against Donald Trump. Sara is joined by BlazeTV contributors Matthew Marsden and Jaco Booyens, host of "The Bottom Line." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss more good polling for incumbent GOP senators and two key challengers, the sobering facts and projections about our massive debt and deficits, and the no good, very bad week for CBS News.First, they break down promising polling for incumbent GOP senators like Florida's Rick Scott and Texas' Ted Cruz, as well as key challenger Tim Sheehy's growing lead over Democrat Sen. Jon Tester in Montana. The outlook for a Republican Senate majority in 2025 is improving.Next, they groan as new numbers and projections from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) show a $1.8 trillion deficit for this past fiscal year and an even bigger one expected for the year to come. The figures also show that just paying the interest on the debt cost taxpayers $892 billion in Fiscal Year 2024 and will be more than a trillion dollars next year. It's unsustainable and neither party cares.Finally, they chronicle the horrible week for CBS News. This includes network management chastising "CBS This Morning" Co-Host Tony Dokoupil for asking some tough questions of Ta-Nehisi Coates about his new book that's very hostile towards Israel, "60 Minutes" egregiously editing the interview with Kamala Harris, and network brass telling reporters not to say that Jerusalem is in Israel.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelphttps://betterhelp.com/3MLVisit the 3ML website for 10% of your first month.

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three good martinis. Today, they discuss Kamala Harris confirming she and Joe Biden had no major policy differences, Harris getting some tough questions frfrom "60 Minutes", and Republicans gaining ground in three critical Midwest Senate races. Oh, and of course Jim has a couple of thoughts about the New York Jets firing their head coach.First, they react to Kamala Harris telling the ladies on "The View" that "there's not a thing that comes to mind" when asked whether there was anything she would have done differently than President Biden. She also says she was a part of every major decision Biden made. Jim says this completely ties her to Biden's unpopular record and he is stunned she didn't come up with a single difference.Next, they applaud Bill Whitaker of "60 Minutes" for asking Kamala Harris tough questions and good follow-up questions, especially on the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. Jim and Greg also critique Harris's word salad responses, as she tried to deflect blame onto Republicans while struggling to defend the administration's failures on immigration.Finally, Jim and Greg discuss the momentum shift in three key Senate races. With only four weeks left in the campaign, Republicans are gaining ground in Wisconsin, Ohio, and Michigan. Wisconsin is now considered a toss-up, Ohio polling shows a dead heat, and Michigan is within the margin of error, signaling that the GOP could make critical gains in these battleground states.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelphttps://betterhelp.com/3MLVisit the 3ML website for 10% of your first month.

Join Jim and Greg as they look at how the GOP's odds for a U.S. Senate majority seem to be improving, how Tim Walz was a massive failure on COVID deaths in nursing homes and much more, and how Chuck Schumer utterly failed to do his most important job - but will still emerge as a winner.First, they welcome a new Scott Rasmussen poll (different than Rasmussen Reports) that shows Montana Republican Senate candidate Tim Sheehy with a growing lead over incumbent Democrat Jon Tester. And several other races are inching further in the direction of Republicans. They also rail against the media for constantly labeling Democrats like Pennsylvania's Bob Casey and Virginia's Tim Kaine as "moderates" even though they vote along with the Biden administration's position almost all the time.Next, they discuss reporting that shows Minnesota's nursing home death rate from COVID was the worst in the nation under Tim Walz, due in large part to his demand that those facilities accept COVID patients after they left the hospital. Jim points out that mainstream media seem thoroughly uninterested in Walz's actual record as governor and are much more content to lazily play into the image of him as a regular guy.Finally, they groan as Congress appears on the verge of another continuing resolution to keep the government open. But they also highlight Speaker Mike Johnson's point that the House passed 12 separate appropriations bills in committee - also known as regular order - and the Senate ignored the House legislation and passed no spending bills on its own. So Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer didn't do anything to fulfill the most important function of the legislative branch.
