Who is this guy - and what has he done with Governor Greg Abbott? In recent weeks - clearly in an election year panic of sorts - our Governor has been flip-flopping like crazy: he's been condemning the impacts of data centers - the very same data centers he's lured to Texas for years with generous incentives and kickbacks. He's tempted blowback from Donald Trump in admitting out loud that, you know, maybe ICE agents shouldn't be shooting people. He's had jokes about his own disability backfire online because, you know, he made it a lot harder for other folks in similar situations to find financial relief. And, he's decided that "birth tourism" is somehow a major immigration problem that needs tackling, when it very rarely happens - and when it does, it's typically a win-win for America.Having reported on all of this and more, we're proud to welcome journalist Michael Karlis of the San Antonio Current on to talk about the seemingly frenzied week that Governor Abbott is having - he sure doesn't seem himself lately.

Debido a los incendios forestales en Canadá la mala calidad del aire afecta a cerca de 115 millones de personas en al menos 17 estados en los Estados Unidos. El gobernador Greg Abbott confirmó la muerte de dos personas en las inundaciones en Texas, sin embargo las alarmas tempranas de inundaciones muestran buen funcionamiento y han ayudado a salvar vidas.

On this episode of Texas Take, host Jeremy Wallace examines the fatal ICE shooting of an unarmed Houston construction contractor that has reignited debate over immigration enforcement, transparency and accountability in Texas. Jeremy speaks with U.S. Representative Sylvia Garcia and Houston Chronicle reporter Julian Aguilar about the conflicting accounts of the shooting, the calls for an independent investigation, similarities to the shooting in Maine, and the broader political fallout. He also breaks down the renewed effort by Texas Republicans to ban THC products after Governor Greg Abbott's vetoed their ban last year. Plus, a rare public campaign stop from Senate candidate Ken Paxton shows how he's going to use a classic GOP line of attack in his battle against Democratic challenger James Talarico in one of the hottest races in the nation.

 It's expected FIFA will award the 2031 Women's World Cup to the US in November or December, ahead of the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil. In other news, since last June, a bill signed by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott making daylight saving time permanent has been in line to go into effect should the federal government enable states to do so; Karmelo Anthony's defense attorneys struck a handshake deal intended to protect their client from his past.

The Trump administration is threatening top election officials with criminal prosecution if any ballot is cast by noncitizens in their state. That's according to a letter from the Justice Department sent last week to all 50 states and the District of Columbia.The president's threats raise the specter of noncitizen voting. In Michigan, for example, officials found that only 16 noncitizens voted in the 2024 election. That's 0.00028 percent of the state's total votes. And in Texas, their state investigation found about 100 potential noncitizen voters in 2024, though Gov. Greg Abbot initially suggested that there were over 1,900 potential noncitizen voters in the state.The Trump administration's efforts to sow doubt in elections doesn't stop there. Last Thursday, President Trump fired the remaining members of the bipartisan federal Election Assistance Commission, just months ahead of this year's midterms. And the Federal Emergency Management Agency warned states it will withhold a percentage of antiterrorism preparedness funds if states don't change the way they conduct elections, including implementing paper ballots, verifying citizenship, and running costly audits.In this installment of our weekly politics series, “If You Can Keep It,” we look at the administration's attacks on the election process. How is it affecting the way that Americans' perceive their elections — and what that all means for freedom and fairness of our elections.Find more of our programs online.

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for July 7, 2026. We open with a story out of Germany that hits uncomfortably close to home — the German defense minister is publicly discussing whether a conservative party that finishes first in national polling should be denied access to classified information if it wins power. We explain why this isn't just a European problem: it's exactly what James Clapper attempted with Donald Trump in 2016, what the FBI did to the Tea Party under Obama, and what the DOJ did to pro-life Catholics under Biden. When a government starts treating political opponents as security threats, the next steps — denied clearances, restricted briefings, platform pressure, donor investigations — become easier every time. Germany is showing us where that road ends. We'd prefer not to follow. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, President Trump declared the ceasefire over after Iran attacked three oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz — launching a second night of U.S. strikes on Iranian air defenses, fast boats, and missile launchers, and saying of negotiations, they're liars, they're cheats, they're sick people. Then Kentucky's Democratic Governor Andy Beshear formally demanded transparency from Senator Mitch McConnell's office about his medical condition — noting that while several Republican colleagues claim to have spoken with him at length, not one of them has quoted a single word he actually said. And a 51-year-old Australian citizen living in Franklinton, Louisiana was arrested and charged by the DOJ for registering to vote by falsely claiming American citizenship and casting ballots in both 2022 and 2024 — which is exactly why the Save America Act exists and exactly why the Senate needs to pass it. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson get into the financial realities facing young families today — the near impossibility of one parent staying home, the role grandparents and extended family play in filling the gap, and why the bonds forged through that kind of mutual help are often the strongest ones families have. Teri shares how she told her daughter-in-law directly that private school for the grandchildren is something she and her husband are prepared to help with — because that's what family does when it can. We dig into the Supreme Court's birthright citizenship ruling — and the Texas hospital advertising birth packages in Mexico for $4,000 natural or $5,500 for a C-section, with the implied promise that the baby goes home as an American citizen. Governor Greg Abbott has ordered an immediate investigation of Mission Regional Medical Center. We also cover Chinese birth tourism to American Samoa — where more Chinese babies are now born than American babies — with those children raised under the Communist Party before returning to the United States as adult citizens with full legal access. We make the case that the 14th Amendment's original meaning of subject to the jurisdiction thereof meant complete political allegiance — not one foot on American soil — and that Congress must act before birth tourism becomes the dominant business model along our southern border. We then cover Maine Democratic Senate nominee Graham Plattner — who still hasn't dropped out as of broadcast but faces a Monday deadline — and the stunning reversal from a Democratic Party that was fully behind him while he was ahead in the polls and is now trying to deny him any role in choosing his replacement. We note that the only Democrat who called Plattner out while he was still leading was John Fetterman — who this week demanded that every Democrat who championed Plattner publicly apologize to the voters of Maine. A party willing to undo its own nomination process when the polls turn is a party that has made clear the democratic process is a means to an end, not a principle. For our Bright Spot, firearms manufacturer CMMG has announced it will only sell to state and local government agencies the same configurations it is allowed to sell to that state's citizens. If a state bans AR-15 style rifles for civilians, CMMG will not sell AR-15 style rifles to that state's law enforcement. Their statement says it plainly — we do not have two classes of citizenry in this country. We are all subject to the Constitution. A government that doesn't trust its citizens cannot be trusted by its citizens. We call it exactly what it is — a principled stand worth celebrating and worth other manufacturers following. And we close with Jordan Rosenberg, who married Max Creamer this summer after knowing him for about ten years. At the wedding reception, Jordan's parents played a home video of four-year-old Jordan describing her future wedding — naming the friends who would be there, all of whom were present as adults. And when asked who her husband would be, four-year-old Jordan said the name Max. She spoke it into existence. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

America is turning 250… and Christian nationalists are determined to make sure the birthday party belongs to them. This week, Frank and Dan dive into the bizarre "Rededicate 250" event in Washington D.C., where Trump allies, religious activists, and culture war celebrities are pushing the idea that the United States was founded as a Christian nation (and therefore should become one again).

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, victory requires finishing off the Iranian regime through military, economic, and internal pressure: arming Iranian resistance groups, targeting the IRGC and internal security forces, encouraging the regular army to turn, and backing opposition operations with U.S. and Israeli airpower. With 92 million Iranians facing intensified oppression and executions, this environment is ideal for supporting internal revolt, as done successfully in past operations. The enemy must surrender or die. Also, the Democrats and the media are repeatedly wrong, for example, Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), was mocked as "Star Wars" fantasy despite expert advice. Reagan fought for its funding, envisioning missile-on-missile defense, ultimately leading to the Patriot system. This pressured Mikhail Gorbachev contributing to a nuclear deal and the beginning of the Soviet Union's end. Reagan armed freedom fighters to halt communism in places like Africa and Afghanistan, and it succeeded. The CIA should do the same thing today to support the Iranians, who have repeatedly tried and failed to overthrow their regime by arming them to help both the Iranian people and U.S. interests. Later, Zohran Mamdani is intentionally creating a violent and hostile environment for the Jewish community in New York City. Jews are being harassed, pushed, and beaten on the streets and outside temples using bullhorns, while swastikas and other hateful symbols appear in Jewish neighborhoods. Thugs, Islamists, and neo-Nazis act freely because they know they can get away with it. Mamdani speaks out of both sides of his mouth, fully aware of the situation, and is deliberately working to depopulate the city of Jewish people in order to turn it into a permanent center for people of his own faith. Afterward, Gov Ron DeSantis calls in to break down Florida's new redistricting map and the possible elimination of property taxes in Florida. Finally, Gov Greg Abbott calls in and explains that he designated CAIR as a foreign terrorist organization using new authority granted by the Texas legislature. In response, CAIR filed a federal lawsuit to overturn the designation. Texas is using the litigation to demand extensive discovery, including all of CAIR's bank records, financial transactions, meetings, travels to terrorist-linked locations, and funding sources and recipients.
