It's legally harder than it might seem, according to Hans Von Spakovsky, Senior Legal Fellow at Heritage. We also discuss the latest in Russiagate/Obamagate.

Marc Cox talks with Hans von Spakovsky about Trump's authority to deploy the National Guard in Washington, D.C. versus other cities. They discuss constitutional limits, the 10th Amendment, and questions around federal intervention in places like Chicago. Hans explains how 800 Guard troops filled gaps left by D.C.'s defunded police force, leading to zero murders in over a week, sharp drops in carjackings, and hundreds of backlogged arrest warrants cleared.

Our legal expert from Heritage says it couldn't be written any more ironically, now that Trump's fine has been declared excessive, maybe Letitia James, Attorney General of New York can give us all a lesson on mortgage fraud?

Marc brings on Hans von Spakovsky from Heritage to cut through the media spin on Texas redistricting. While Democrats cry foul, Hans points out that Republicans are redrawing four districts only because a federal court ruled the original Democrat-pushed maps were unconstitutional racial gerrymanders. Marc and Hans torch the hypocrisy, citing states like Massachusetts and Connecticut where Republicans make up 35–40% of voters yet hold zero congressional seats thanks to Democrat gerrymandering. They also pivot to Trump's federal takeover of D.C., clarifying that while his unique authority there doesn't extend to other cities, he can still deploy ICE, FBI, and even the National Guard to crack down on lawlessness elsewhere. The two highlight how staged “anti-ICE” protests—like those inside Home Depot—expose the left's alliance with illegal hiring practices and professional protest machines.

In this episode, Lisa interviews Hans von Spakovsky of the Heritage Foundation about Washington D.C.’s governance, rising crime, and nationwide redistricting battles. They highlight how Democrat-led policies—like cash bail elimination and “defund the police”—have fueled D.C.’s crime crisis. The discussion also covers the President’s authority over D.C., the need for federal intervention, and how left-wing immigration and census policies distort congressional representation. They warn that Democrat-driven redistricting and open borders threaten fair elections and public safety, stressing the importance of restoring law and order and protecting the integrity of American democracy.

In times like these, do a census. That's Trump's philosophy! Is it yours? We talk about the legal with Hans Von Spakovsky and throw around a little Gen X slang.
