Congressman Mike Lawler calls in to discuss his mission to secure Sid State of the Union tickets while joking that he obtained a ticket for local media figure and Sid's arch-nemesis Errol Lewis. Lawler discusses President Trump's upcoming State of the Union and says many Democrats, including AOC, are boycotting, then criticizes AOC's recent comments in Munich and her attacks on Marco Rubio's speech. The conversation shifts to Democrats' emphasis on climate policy, with Lawler arguing Democrats have conflated climate and energy policy, citing New York's high utility costs and decisions such as shutting down nuclear power, banning natural gas, and blocking pipelines. He frames energy policy as central to national security, referencing international oil dynamics involving Iran, China, Venezuela, and Russia. The discussion also criticizes New York's budget process and legislative oversight, alleging Gov. Kathy Hochul “found” $1.5 billion without scrutiny and claiming Democrats in Albany conduct little oversight and suppress Republican questioning in hearings, including on antisemitism.

Western Alaska man missing since Saturday has been rescued, according to state officials. We hear from his father. Plus, Alaska senators will vote this week on a bill to enable new funding streams for Mt. Edgecumbe High School, but it’s unclear if it can survive another veto from Gov. Mike Dunleavy, who rejected identical funding eight months ago — months before lawmakers toured the school and called conditions “deplorable.”
Connecticut Citizens Defense League's Holly Sullivan joins Cam with details of Gov. Ned Lamont's bill targeting the sale of Glocks and other striker-fired pistols, along with news about a brand new firearms conference for New England 2A activists.
“I've come to believe that it's not what has happened to our family that has been cursed—it's the fact that we've never been able to deal with it privately.” — Eunice Kennedy Shriver The idea of the “Kennedy Curse” has followed this family for generations, often explained away as bad luck or fate. But the truth is more complicated. In this episode, we explore how constant public scrutiny, enormous expectations, and a deep resistance to vulnerability shaped the Kennedy family's most painful moments, especially in the case of Rosemary Kennedy, whose lobotomy reflects how fear, misunderstanding, and the pressure to protect an image could lead to irreversible decisions. Rather than a story about a doomed bloodline, this episode looks at how power, silence, and the denial of privacy shaped one of America's most famous families, and why those choices continued to ripple outward long after they were made.

Journalists from around the state discuss the news of the week with host Bill Bryant, including Gov. Andy Beshear's appearance on several national media programs and new commercials from Republican candidates for U.S. Senate. Panelists: John Cheves, Lexington Herald-Leader; McKenna Horsley, Kentucky Lantern; and Phillip Bailey, USA Today.

A little wartime history: In 1940, at the start of World War II, approximately 12 million women were working outside the household in the United States, comprising about 25% of the female population. That number rose significantly during the war to over 18 million by 1945, as the U.S. government encouraged women in posters and commercial advertising to volunteer for wartime service in factories. Inspired by a song by Redd Evans and John Jacob Loeb, Rosie the Riveter, the brawny brunette with a red, polka dotted headscarf, became an icon of the war and women’s movement. Today, women make up nearly half of the total U.S. labor force. And if, like me, you grew up with a mother who owned a small business, then you won’t be surprised at all that women make up nearly 45% of all businesses in the U.S., employing over 10.5 million workers and generating over $3.3 trillion in revenue. As an ad from the Sixties used to say, “You’ve come a long way, baby.” Sidney Coffee became a small business owner after decades of public service. Originally from Texas, Sidney came to Baton Rouge to attend college at LSU. She began her career in journalism at The Advocate, working on special sections, then moved to WBRZ Channel 2 as a news producer, creating morning and evening broadcasts. Sidney then pivoted to positions in public communications—first as Gov. Buddy Roemer’s press secretary, which then led to a position with the Lower Mississippi Delta Development Commission, chaired at the time by then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton. Recognizing her work in coastal policy, Govs. Mike Foster and Kathleen Blanco each tapped Sidney for positions during their administrations. For the last decade, Sidney has been the owner and operator of The Guru, an art gallery, spiritual retreat, and event venue, set inside a restored 1920s mechanic’s garage on Government Street. When we think about the factors that drive consumer purchases, convenience often tops the list, with 77% to 83% of consumers citing it as a key factor that influences, or sometimes dictates, their buying decisions. From fast food to five-minute oil changes, our modern lifestyles demand ease and immediacy. Anna Beth Guillory, has developed an app for busy professional women to book appointments directly with beauty professionals. It's called BeautyFindr. After nearly a decade of co-owning a blowout bar in Lake Charles, Anna Beth identified a persistent problem: connecting clients to available beauty professionals in real time. Working with a developer, Anna Beth spent 11 months building the BeautyFindr app, which launched in 2024. Today, BeautyFindr operates in 19 states and is quickly evolving into a business-development hub for beauty professionals, and, as well as scheduling, offers peer networking, social sharing and business-growth tools.

Larry Sharpe returns to dismantle the NY GOP's culture of losing with a fusion voting strategy that weaponizes state matching funds to eliminate property taxes and bring nuclear power to the Empire State. Larry Sharpe, candidate for New York Governor, joins Brian Nichols to reveal his "Fusion Voting" strategy to break the Democrat stronghold and why the NY GOP's "weak resistance" results in a 24-year losing streak. Larry explains how running on the Republican, Conservative, and Libertarian lines simultaneously allows him to bypass the "spoiler" effect while weaponizing New York's matching funds system to finance a liberty-focused revolution. He breaks down the failure of the current establishment to address the exodus of residents and details why the "Red Team, Blue Team" mindset is destroying the Empire State. We expose the reality of New York's broken political machine and how Larry plans to use a Sovereign Wealth Fund to eliminate school property taxes overnight. You need to hear this blueprint for decentralizing education, rejecting federal funding to fire bloat-heavy administrators, and empowering local communities with 50% ownership of new nuclear power plants. This isn't just a campaign speech; it's a tactical guide on how to dismantle a one-party state from the inside out using actual policy solutions rather than empty rhetoric.

TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion of sexual abuse and crimes against minors. As the head of the FBI and DOJ continue to downplay, deny, and deflect from the Epstein Files in Congressional hearings, we delve into evidence that Jeffrey Epstein was not only managing a human trafficking for the rich and powerful, but that he was also intentionally impregnating girls. We also review emails that showcase his efforts to fund studies on evolution and how to create "designer babies". Then, we compare that information with allegations about his secluded Zorro Ranch property in New Mexico, which was never searched despite an alleged former staff member reporting buried bodies. We conclude by reviewing emails that detail how involved Epstein was in medical information about his victims and what doctors he trusted, and paid, to provide them care. People featured for their Epstein correspondence and/or connection in this episode include: Mark Tramo, Martin Nowak, Bryan Bishop, Dr. Barnaby Marsh, Dr. Adam Romoff, Dr. Daniel C. Baker, Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Matthew Mellon, Leslie Wexner, and victim's advocate Conchita Sarnoff.Check your voter registration, find your polling location, or contact your representatives via USA.GOV, VOTE.GOV, and/or the "5 Calls" app. All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and political director Bob Hardt break down the state of the race for governor. Then, Mayor Zohran Mamdani headed to Albany for what's known as "Tin Cup Day," making the case for new tax hikes on wealthy New Yorkers and businesses. The mayor also struck a somewhat less pessimistic tone about the city's budget outlook, a shift from his earlier warnings of a $12 billion budget deficit. The "Off Topic" team weighs in on Mamdani's trip to the State Capitol and what it signals about the city's financial future.

Protecting tribal sovereignty is a top discussion at the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) 2026 Executive Council Winter Session, which is taking place this week in Washington, DC. NCAI President Mark Macarro (Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians) highlighted the importance of tribal sovereignty in his State of Indian Nations address. Macarro says before there was a U.S., there were sovereign tribal nations. “Our sovereignty was not created by treaties, nor granted by Congress. It is inherent and existed before colonization. Treaties did not give us sovereignty. They recognized it. The Constitution did not define us it acknowledged us. Federal laws did not create our rights, it memorialized them. And yet for centuries, our sovereignty has been attacked and attempts continue to constrain and diminish it. Yet our nations continue to govern, continue to lead, to teach, to resist, and to rise.” Macarro says recent attacks include calls by Gov. Kevin Stitt (Cherokee/R-OK) to limit tribal sovereignty, which Macarro says is appalling. Tribal leaders in Oklahoma agree with Macarro’s sentiment. Reggie Wassana is governor of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma. “This day and age, we shouldn’t have to ask why tribes have a sovereignty. We shouldn’t have to ask what the tribe’s capabilities are, how they can function, how they can prosper, and who are tribes.” Wassana and Macarro say tribal leaders are often educating elected officials about American Indian history, tribal sovereignty and the U.S. government's trust and treaty responsibilities. Before every census, the federal government picks several test sites, focusing on hard-to-reach areas, but the bureau has cancelled that testing at four of the six regions, including two that cover Arizona tribal lands. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, this is not the first time the Census has changed course with Indian Country. In fact, this also happened in 2016 when two reservations in Washington and South Dakota were nixed, citing budget uncertainty and funding shortages. Census consultant Saundra Mitrovich (Berry Creek Rancheria of Maidu Indians of California), co-leads the Natives Count Coalition. “In the last two decennials, not only have we had the undercount, but we've had this cancellation of test sites for tribal areas twice.” Mitrovich says one concern is that the Trump administration is considering to use postal service staff to replace temporary census workers to conduct the count and cut down on costs. “A lot of the households are left invisible to the census, and they also have non-traditional addresses.” In 2020, the nonprofit Native American Rights Fund reported that more than 80% of all registered Indigenous voters in Arizona – outside of metro Phoenix and Tucson – rely solely on P.O. boxes. This time around, San Carlos and White Mountain Apache homes in Arizona as well as Cherokee households in North Carolina are being left out. The Census Bureau would not say why. “How are we gonna say that we're going to carry out this fair and full representation that the survey is supposed to provide of the country?” And on this day in 1978, the “Longest Walk” by Native activists began. A start-up ceremony took place on Alcatraz Island, where the group then proceeded to travel by foot from Sacramento to Washington D.C. to build awareness of treaty rights and injustice.
