TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA cheerful holiday hello quickly turns into a tour through timely headlines and hard truths. We start with new travel advisories for an untreatable mosquito-borne virus across several tropical hotspots and unpack what a Level 2 alert actually means for your plans, your packing list, and your appetite for risk. It's not fearmongering—it's about reading signals, setting expectations, and choosing wisely when wanderlust meets reality.From public health we pivot to public language: a massive study tracking how often Americans, Brits, and Australians use the F word online. It's data with personality, and we have fun with the findings while asking what swearing signals about mood, culture, and authenticity. Is profanity a failure of vocabulary or a tool for emphasis and solidarity? The answer, as always with language, depends on context—and that context says a lot about who we are on the internet.The core of the show zeroes in on Elon Musk's candid reflection on DOGE—the Department of Government Efficiency—and his belief that he wouldn't do it again. We get honest about why bureaucratic reform struggles, how zombie payments persist, and what happens when you cut off entrenched money flows. There's a reason backlash is swift: systems defend themselves and donors prefer stability. We explore the limits of awareness campaigns, the need for long-haul strategies, and the personal cost of stepping into a political grinder that rarely rewards reformers.We round out with a frank take on how outspoken women on the right are treated, the emotional toll of public fights, and the tension between staying loud and staying viable. And then, a lighter turn: a Christmas morning question that reveals more than it seems—do you rip your presents open or save the paper? It's a small choice that reflects bigger habits: do you rush outcomes or savor the process?If you're here for clear-eyed analysis, a few laughs, and a conversation that connects headlines to human choices, you're in the right place.

Republicans win the special election in Tennessee, but Democrats are still using the election as "momentum" into the midterms. Why? What exactly is the platform of the Democrat party?  President Trump announces latest battle on "affordability", this time with the auto industry. Discussion of the latest announcement on ending regulations and fuel standards on the auto industry to lower new car prices.  As we investigate further into SNAP benefits and potential fraud, we see the connection to why Democrats fight so hard to release information by state, or why we cannot investigate into the Social Security administration. 

During Dumb Ass News, Chaz and AJ had audio of an Uber driver losing their mind on passengers who asked to have the radio on. Uber Tim called in to share his stories of passengers that acted like morons. (0:00)  Professor Ari Loeb was on the phone with Chaz and AJ this morning to talk about the mysterious comet in our solar systenm. The comet has not behaved like a normal comet, gaining speed, gaining mass, and leading many to think this could be a probe sent by aliens. (7:10)  Commander Keith was in studio for his Top 5 list, which is the places he thinks the government can still save money. Plus, his firsthand experience from witnessing the plane exploding in Louisville. (18:14)

In this powerful yet hilarious episode, Branchy and Delby are joined by the outspoken and fearless Heidi Anderson, who shares her raw experiences inside Australia's hospital system — exposing the cracks, the chaos, and the human cost of neglect. Together, we call out governments for failing to truly listen to their citizens and question why taxpayer money isn't being spent where it's needed most. Of course, it's not all serious — we balance the fire with some light-hearted chat about V8 Supercars, fast engines, and a few belly laughs along the way. This one's equal parts truth, torque, and total honesty.PATREON Support The Hard Yarns and get access to exclusive drops, content, live shows and promo codes : www.patreon.com/thehardyarnspodcast FIND US Email: info@thehardyarns.com Instagram: @thehardyarnspodcast TikTok: @thehardyarnspodcast Web: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thehardyarns.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ SPONSORS All Trades Cover - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.alltradescover.com.au⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Crafted Finance - https://www.craftedfinance.com.auHard Yarns is Produced by B32media ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#hardyarns⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#comedy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 

Join us as we talk to State Representative Tom Kunse from Michigan's 100th district to discuss current legislation that will impact outdoorsmen and women in the state. We cover: * Tom's background including his time in the Michigan House of Representatives * Ted Nugent's recent trip to Lansing with a concealed firearm and the security debacle that ensued (more people carry in the state house than you'd think) * Tom presents 2 bills currently being discussed that will impact how both the DNR and EGLE interact with private property. * The state of Michigan's DNR and whether additional funding will solve their problems * Why Michigan doesn't allow Sand Hill Crane hunting, except in certain circumstances and the moral issues this presents * Rules that only seem to negatively impact hunters without positively impacting wildlife (killing and wasting nuisance geese, antler point restrictions, banning the use of bait) * The difference between a wildlife department run by biologists vs. a department run as a police force * The waste of taxpayer dollars on frivolous lawsuits * Should the government shutdown impact the publics ability to purchase a hunting license * Recent increases in hunting pressure despite a decrease in hunter numbers * Many bills brought forth are made by people who don't understand hunting tradition and it's impact on the state which it is why it is so important that hunters get out and vote! * How to get involved in the decisions that are being made everyday that impact your way of life Thanks to State Rep Tom Kunse for joining us to discuss these important topics.

https://fb.nativepath.com/rd/r.php?sid=1947&pub=240725&c1=pasreportcoll070125&c2=&c3=bannersIn this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano takes aim at the absurdity of the so-called “No Kings” protest, where activists chant about tyranny while embracing a government that controls nearly every aspect of life. Professor Giordano then breaks down the government shutdown and exposes how Democrats' refusal to support a clean funding resolution is driven by their obsession with power and the big government apparatus. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and the far left are holding the country hostage to protect the failed Obamacare system and keep COVID-era subsidies that have fueled premium spikes, eliminated competition, and increased dependency. He explains how Obamacare is one of the most costly policy failures in American history, and how big government continues to punish working Americans while rewarding bureaucrats and special interests. Episode Highlights: The hypocrisy of the No Kings protests as activists rail against tyranny while demanding more government control over every part of American life. Democrats are blocking a clean funding resolution to protect Obamacare subsidies and weaponize the shutdown for political leverage as the Schumer Shutdown continues. The Obamacare Collapse, premiums are skyrocketing, illegal immigrants exploit loopholes, and the only thing keeping the system alive is endless taxpayer money.

Mary welcomes back Gary Kah to get his insights on several different topics today. The government shutdown - who is doing what to whom to get what they want? According to Americans, who gets the most blame? Who is the new target of losing their jobs as Trump takes aim at Dem programs? Since everything is politicized now, so must this be. We attempt to shine a light on that and what it means for us mere voters. Then we discuss the blue state desire to keep immigration flowing one direction. We have to ask ourselves, why in the world would any community want illegals and the loathsome crimes they commit to ravage their towns and neighborhoods? There must be something big in it for them. Until it's their family or friend touched by crime. We also get Gary's take on the Mideast, the hot topic of the week; also on Ukraine and Russia, as no one expected this war to drag so long. Gary has been watching the times since the early 90s and brings an articulate, unique perspective to some hot button issues.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

In this episode of The Yard Sign, Florida's original political podcast, hosts Johnny Torres and David Cabrera welcome back PR expert and veteran Travis Horn for a lively mix of banter, breaking news, and sharp political analysis. Kicking off with lighthearted chats on stand-up comedy—praising Austin's scene, Joe Rogan, and Jim Gaffigan's "steakhouse laugh"—the trio dives into the bombshell Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal brokered by President Trump. They break down key components like the release of all hostages within 72 hours, Israel's swap of 250 life-sentence prisoners and 1,700 detainees for around 40 captives (half presumed dead), Hamas's arms laydown, IDF withdrawal, humanitarian aid resumption, and a new civilian Palestinian authority. Horn highlights Arab nations turning against Hamas, while Torres notes the deal's timing amid ongoing Gaza bombings and media skepticism from outlets like NBC. They react to rare bipartisan praise from Sen. Tim Kaine and tie it to Trump's Nobel buzz, contrasting it with ABC's Obama Nobel throwback shade. The conversation shifts to the unnoticed government shutdown (now week two), with furloughed feds getting paid vacations and essential workers grinding unpaid. Touching on economic wins like reversing the deficit for the first time in 15 years under Treasury guidance, they speculate on midterm impacts amid tariff battles and immigration focus. A quick pivot to the U.S.-Venezuela tensions sees Qatar mediating as Trump deploys 10,000 troops to Caribbean bases like Puerto Rico, striking "civilian boats" (read: cartel speedboats with khaki packages) while Rubio pushes Maduro's ouster. Banter ensues on Puerto Rico tales, La Perla neighborhoods, and corporate getaways. Fast-forward to DOGE Florida under new CFO Blayson Goglia (ex-Government Gone Wild YouTuber), who blasts Hillsborough County's wastes: $750K for a St. Pete mayor statue, $500K "leadership portal" (basically a YouTube course), and auto allowances amid ballooning budgets despite modest population growth. The group laments local GOP infrastructure failures, like unorganized District 5 races, and predicts Josh Wostel's principled reelection fight in blue-leaning Tampa. Wrapping with a Danish study on 321 Palestinian refugees (63% convicted, 55% on welfare; second-gen at 34% convicted, 37% welfare), they decry Europe's immigration woes paralleling U.S. debates. The episode closes on a humorous note with a skit on dodging NYC tickets by sympathizing with "Donnie" (cops), plus plugs for VFW 4321 karaoke and pop-up chef events.   Topic Chapters: 00:00 - Intro & Comedy Banter 05:09 - Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Breakdown 14:13 - Tim Kaine's Praise & Midterm Speculation 17:19 - U.S.-Venezuela Conflict & Qatar Mediation 21:05 - Truth Social Scoop & Puerto Rico Tales 50:04 - DOGE Florida with Blayson Goglia 55:13 - Hillsborough County Politics & Josh Wostel 59:05 - Turning Point USA & Latino Vote 01:03:51 - Danish Immigration Study 01:05:43 - Funny Cop Pull-Over Skit & Outro

For over a decade, Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) has been a persistent voice against government waste, issuing "squeal awards" that exposed bureaucratic excess when few were paying attention. What began as a somewhat thankless crusade has now become the intellectual foundation for one of the Trump administration's signature initiatives. As Chair of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Caucus, Ernst finds herself in the position of watching her longstanding concerns become White House priorities—from fraudulent payments to foreign exploitation of small business research programs. She's working to implement solutions she's spent years developing, including a blueprint for $2 trillion in potential taxpayer savings.Ernst recently announced that she won't be seeking reelection, creating a 15-month timeline for her to put her stamp on the U.S. Congress. The convergence of her institutional knowledge and Trump's reform mandate, with her lame-duck freedom to take risks, positions her as a unique figure in determining whether and how DOGE leaves a lasting impact on the federal government. The question isn't just what she hopes to accomplish in her remaining tenure, but what the government efficiency movement may look like without its most dedicated practitioner. Senator Ernst joins Evan to discuss her legislative efforts to root out government waste and what she hopes to accomplish before she leaves the Senate.

Government Waste, Food Pyramids, and Mike Davis "This Evening"

Today an encore presentation of an episode that originally aired on February 18th. The Moore Butts combo is back with a big question -- how do you cut government waste and does Elon Musk have the answer? James Moore, the former Conservative cabinet minister. Gerald Butts, the former Liberal top strategist, get back together on their long running series here on The Bridge to tackle this question.

Kentucky spends $1,000,000 in taxpayer funds on buying distillery equipment for a company that is in part ran by a major Beshear donor. The senate campaign fundraising reports are out, and it is causing many politicos to count out Cameron. I'll discuss why I think they are wrong to do so this early in the race. The 6th district congressional race is starting to heat up and get interesting.

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano sits down with Anthony Constantino, CEO of Sticker Mule, to dissect the growing dysfunction in government and how it's impacting American business and politics. From the damaging effects of Democrat extremism in New York City to the barriers faced by entrepreneurs trying to support their communities, Constantino offers sharp insight into the state of the economy, the future of American manufacturing, and the role of leaders like Congresswoman Elise Stefanik. They also explore why the so-called Big Beautiful Bill demands scrutiny, and how fiscal irresponsibility in Congress has led to bloated bureaucracy and resistance to real reform. Episode Highlights: How government overreach is strangling small businesses and stifling innovation Why Anthony Constantino believes Elise Stefanik could revive New York The Big Beautiful Bill: Why complexity and bureaucracy keep failing Americans

On February 19 of this year, President Donald Trump issued one of his first executive orders, Commencing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy, leaving no doubt his aim to reduce its size and scope. As DOGE got to work firing federal workers—and cutting entire agencies, the president also fired heads of agencies—Democratic and Republican—cleaning house of leadership not deemed on side. As EO whiplash continues, so does pushback, with many in the public learning about the people behind the cost-cutting and loyalty tests—the federal workers and government agencies helping to make American life run smoothly and safely. What are the legal questions?Joining this episode is Anne Joseph O'Connell, a leading scholar of U.S. administrative law and the federal bureaucracy. She was a presidentially appointed member of the Council of the Administrative Conference of the United States, an independent federal agency dedicated to improving regulatory procedures, from October 2022 to January 2025. She combines a lawyer's doctrinal acumen and institutional sensibilities with a political scientist's deep understanding of American politics and political theory and an empiricist's rigor about facts in the world. Her scholarship explains how government really works. She has done pioneering and award-winning work on previously unforeseen questions about the problem of vacancies in federal office and about the legal and normative implications of unorthodox government entities such as the U.S. Postal Service or Smithsonian.Links:Anne Joseph O'Connell  >>> Stanford Law pageActings >>> Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X (00:00:00)  Introduction to Anne Joseph O'Connell's background(00:03:44) Actings in Government(00:17:04) The Importance of Government Accountability(00:19:22) The Role of Detailees in Government and The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)(00:27:24) Government Waste and Fraud

Disclaimer: This video was recorded in March of 2022.I had a killer conversation with Christa Hilton, the conservative single mom and entrepreneur behind Drunk Republic. We didn't get political. We got real. Christa started reading the entire CARES Act during COVID when her business consulting for small businesses had to shut down. What she discovered sent her down a rabbit hole of government waste, hidden spending, and ridiculous programs that American taxpayers unknowingly fund. We dove into the insanity of public school systems, why parents need to take back their power, and how Christa's approach to showing her son real life in Portland—drugs, homelessness and all—is creating a kid who thinks critically about everything. Christa shared how her 12-year-old son can already see through political BS on both sides. School choice, government spending, entrepreneurship, parenting—this conversation covers it all. Christa's podcast Drunk Politics is cutting through the noise and exposing what our government is really doing with our money. Go check her out on Instagram @thechristahilton and at drunkrepublic.co.We Meet:Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Krista: https://www.drunkrepublic.co/ Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Krista: Conservative single mom & entrepreneur still living in Portland, OR. Started a brand called Drunk Republic and a podcast called Drunk Politics (it's a play on words calling out how drunk on power our politicians are) out of a burning need to get fellow Americans to wake up to the madness that is perpetuating in our country and then do something about it. She's been invited onto Newsmax multiple times talking about HOW conservatives can get involved in starting to take back their cities, especially the very liberal ones, as well as how she is raising her son with conservative values having pulled him out of the public school system to homeschool him while going on a cross country roadtrip before putting him in a small Christian private school.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – For every fraudulent claim that goes unchecked, honest Americans foot the bill. When entitlement programs hemorrhage money due to improper payments, it leads to higher taxes, reduced funding for critical infrastructure, and increased national debt. More importantly, it hurts the families who genuinely rely on these programs. The more fraud and waste that exist, the...

Senator Marsha Blackburn challenges Democrats to condemn organized violence against Tesla. Plus DOGE's mission to eliminate government waste, and the Senate's role in supporting President Trump's cost-cutting agenda. Get the facts first on Morning Wire.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, Ben Ferguson from the Ben Ferguson podcast fills in. Democrats are in an uproar over Elon Musk, displaying behavior that seems petty and unhinged. Instead of focusing on pressing issues, they target Musk and President Trump. Musk is transforming the culture surrounding economic mismanagement and the left's agenda, which doesn't align with the country's needs or desires. He has efficiently exposed and removed individuals causing harm to the nation. Additionally, President Trump has assembled a remarkable team dedicated to repairing and improving the country, necessitating the removal of harmful individuals. The President of the United States shouldn't have to contend with district judges undermining his efforts. Lastly, some schools are resisting Trump's ban on biological men participating in women's sports. Governor Janet Mills is defying Trump's law, stating that Maine will not comply. A viral video reveals schools in Maine allowing biological men to compete in women's sports. Mills responded by saying, "We'll see you in court." Her strategy involves using the law while not adhering to it. Where are the feminists supporting women's rights? Mills has no right to ignore a federal law affecting women's rights; this is illegal, and she should step down as governor.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

At last, Washington is going to eliminate government waste!

At last, Washington is going to eliminate government waste!Trump & Company's budget-whacking crew even brandished a big ol' chainsaw to show us hoi polloi that they're serious. So goodbye to those ridiculous, multibillion-dollar giveaways to politically connected corporate elites, right?Uh… don't get silly. The chainsawers-in-chief are Elon Musk, Trump and a mess of ultra-rich GOP cabinet appointees, and their fortunes are built on fat checks from the government, so they will NOT be targeting any of their boondoggles. Instead, they're aiming at programs offering modest help to middle-class and poor families.For example, the Agriculture Department regularly mails out billions of dollars in “farm subsidies,” but most real farmers don't get a penny, while about 80 percent of the taxpayers' money goes to the richest 10 percent of agribusiness owners, including city-dwelling billionaires and corporate giants.But rather than touching their giveaways, the Ag Department has just made a political show of zeroing-out a very successful farm-to-market program that enables small producers to sell their fresh goods to local school districts and food banks. This is government at its best—serving as a catalyst to “free up the enterprise” of small businesses by allowing them to bypass monopolistic middlemen and provide top-quality fresh foods to their communities.Big Food, however, hates competition. Thus, Brooke Rollins (a corporate-hugging, far-right-wing lawyer who is Trump's new Ag Secretary) summarily cancelled this enterprising local food initiative, announcing on Fox News that it was “nonessential” waste.This is Jim Hightower saying… So there you have their guiding ethic of these “waste warriors.” Programs helping regular Americans are just waste to be eliminated—but giveaways to the rich are “essential” waste to be protected.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

On this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano welcomes John Fawcett, host of The Great America Show, to discuss how President Trump's policies are changing the game as he moves at an unprecedented pace to reshape the country. While some short-term pain may be inevitable, these bold actions set the stage for potential long-term prosperity. John explains why it's time to shift focus from Wall Street to Main Street, the current disarray within the Democrat Party, and the rare unity among Republicans. We also examine America's two-decade decline and whether Trump's policies can truly reverse the trend. Tune in for an in-depth discussion on the future of America's political and economic landscape. Episode Highlights: • Trump's rapid policy moves: short-term pain for long-term national gain. • The decline of Wall Street's dominance and the renewed focus on Main Street. • Can a unified Republican Party stay together, and what challenges lie ahead?

Jeremy Portnoy—Investigative Journalist & Author of OpenTheBooks ‘Waste of the Day' column on RealClear—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the federal government's money mismanagement. According to his investigation, since 2000 “almost every federal agency” has seen their spending soar “up to 500%, 1000% in some instances, almost all across the board.”

Americans overwhelmingly say the government is too big, bloated, and wasteful, but what happens when real cuts start to hurt? As tariffs hit, government spending is slashed, and bureaucratic fat is trimmed, Americans will feel the consequences. With consumer sentiment and the stock market fluctuating, how much pain are Americans willing to bear for a leaner, more accountable government and a stronger economic future? Will they stand by President Trump as he moves forward with his agenda, or will short-term pain create backlash? In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the economic and political realities of government cuts, the tough choices ahead, and whether Americans truly have the resolve to end government overreach once and for all. Episode Highlights: • Tariffs, Budget Cuts & Market Reactions How economic pain hits American households and what it means for Trump's economic plan. • Are Americans Too Shortsighted? Voters demand smaller government, but will they backtrack as real consequences emerge? • The Political Stakes Will Americans accept temporary pain for long-term prosperity, or will political pressure force a return to reckless government spending and business as usual in Washington DC?

How is Donald Trump's much-discussed Department of Government Efficiency working in practice? In this episode of All Things, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin explains his agency's partnership with DOGE and the process by which they are identifying waste and fraud to make the federal government more accountable. What grants or programs are being cut, and why? What's happening to the EPA workforce? How much internal "resistance" is there to these goals? And how does EPA balance its mission of "clean air, land and water for every American" with the goal of a smaller government?   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The fight against government waste, fraud, and abuse just got a powerful new ally. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Congressman Tim Burchett to discuss the newly formed House Oversight Subcommittee on Government Efficiency—also known as the DOGE Subcommittee. This committee, chaired by Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, has been tasked with uncovering the worst cases of federal waste and holding bureaucrats accountable. Congressman Burchett shares his insights on the committee's first hearing, the shocking revelations about government inefficiencies, and why many in Washington are afraid of what might be uncovered. He also explains how the subcommittee will work alongside the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, and why Congress must act fast before momentum is lost. From outrageous spending on unnecessary programs to taxpayer dollars funding wasteful projects overseas, this episode pulls back the curtain on where your hard-earned money is really going—and what can be done to stop it. #GovernmentWaste #Transparency #Accountability #Oversight #FiscalConservatism #AmericanPotential

For years, I've referenced the book The Privatization of Everything as a seminal work in my understanding of the relationship between government and the private sector. So given the recent DOGE of it all, it seemed like a great time to revisit this conversation—now with one of its authors, Donald Cohen. We discuss the role privatization plays in government waste, and who stands to gain from the transformation of public funds into private wealth.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (02/06/2025): 3:05pm- Democrats continue to panic over the Trump Administration's threat to dismantle and restructure the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). On Tuesday, the administration announced that many employees within the agency will be placed on leave—with many contractors being laid off. Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained that many of USAID's activities are currently “conflicting” with State Department priorities. According to reports, USAID may ultimately be merged with the State Department. 3:15pm- As the Trump Administration begins to reconstruct USAID, Congressman Brian Mast posted a video to social media highlighting some of USAID's most outrageous expenditures. Rep. Mast's list includes: $15 million for contraceptives to the Taliban, $20k for drag shows in Venezuela, $450k to promote atheism in Nepal, $1 million to unionize gig workers in Brazil, $55k for a climate change presentation in Argentina, $350 million to build pier in Gaza, and $450k to help Indonesian coffee companies become more climate and gender friendly. 3:40pm- While speaking with the press, Kansas City Chiefs tight end—and Taylor Swift's boyfriend—Travis Kelce was asked how he felt about President Donald Trump attending Sunday's Super Bowl. Kelce said he considers it an honor to play in front of the president. Progressives on social media were, of course, outraged by the comments. Notably, Taylor Swift vocally backed Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. 3:50pm- On Sunday, President Donald Trump will become the first sitting president to attend the Super Bowl. Rich, Matt, and Justin wonder—who is Trump rooting for? The Kansas City Chiefs or the Philadelphia Eagles? 4:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order preventing biological males from competing in women's sports. During the White House event announcing the decision, Trump was surrounded by female athletes and women in sports including Paula Scanlan, Riley Gaines, Jennifer Sey, and Sage Steele. CNN Senior Political Writer and Analyst Harry Enten noted that, according to polling, 79% of Americans agree that biological males should not be permitted to participate in women's sports. 4:30pm- Eugene Kontorovich—Professor at George Mason University Scalia School of Law—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest op-ed for The Wall Street Journal, “The U.S. Has Rights Over the Panama Canal.” Kontorovich notes that Chinese firms currently control two large ports on the Panama Canal—one on each end of the canal. But because China is a communist regime, there should be no distinction between privately-owned and government-controlled firms. Consequently, this could amount to impermissible foreign influence. You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/the-u-s-has-rights-over-the-panama-canal-treaty-neutrality-history-dc2cdee6. 5:00pm- Dr. Victoria Coates— Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and reacts to President Donald Trump announcing his administration's proposal to seize control of Gaza and rebuild it. Trump cited the humanitarian need to dispose of unexploded munitions and structurally unsound buildings before civilians can safely live in the area again. During reconstruction, he suggested displaced Palestinians could live in neighboring countries like Egypt and Jordan. Dr. Coates is author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win” which features a forward from Senator Ted Cruz. You can find the book here: https://a.co/d/iTMA4Vb. Soon it'll be available via audio book! 5:40pm- Speaking from the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington D.C., President Donald Trump announced he will sign an executive order to make Attorney General Pam Bondi the head of a task force which will combat ant ...
