Podcasts about Homeland security

We're told a partial Department of Homeland Security shutdown is a national emergency — delayed flights, furloughed workers, Washington dysfunction. But here's what isn't being emphasized: ICE isn't shutting down. Arrests, detention, and deportations continue. And behind the political standoff, enforcement is scaling up. While headlines focus on “shutdown drama,” the enforcement apparatus appears to be accelerating — not pausing. The bigger question isn't whether Congress resolves this dispute. It's what a larger, faster, more centralized immigration enforcement system means for the country's future. Independent media has never been more important.

Tensions are rising in the Persian Gulf. The Trump administration says that diplomacy is the best path forward with Iran—even as a second massive aircraft carrier heads toward the region. Meanwhile, Iran's regime is flexing its muscles with live military drills in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, just one day before nuclear talks with the United States are set to resume.The latest on the Nancy Guthrie case: The Pima County Sheriff on Monday urged the public to stop speculating about Guthrie's family members, saying, “The Guthrie family—to include all siblings and spouses—has been cleared as possible suspects in this case.” This comes after the FBI confirmed that it found DNA on a glove retrieved near the Guthrie home that appears to match the gloves worn by a suspect seen in surveillance footage.White House border czar Tom Homan says that more than 1,000 immigration agents have left Minnesota, with more leaving early this week. Homan also responded to some of the demands that Democrats have made to end the shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which has been in effect since Saturday after Congress failed to reach a funding agreement.

The Department of Homeland Security has entered a partial government shutdown, after a two-week funding extension expired without a bipartisan agreement on immigration reforms. While core agencies like ICE and CBP remain operational due to existing funding streams, the lapse forces roughly 95% of TSA agents and thousands of FEMA employees to work without pay, echoing the financial strain of a previous 43-day shutdown. Republican candidate for the North Carolina Senate and former RNC Chairman Michael Whatley joins the Rundown to discuss yet another political standoff and how it ties into his bid to replace retiring Senator Thom Tillis. As the nation marks the federal holiday for Washington's birthday, 'The White House', a new FOX Nation series, explores the executive mansion's early years, highlighting the political power plays, personal scandals, and the high-stakes compromise that shaped the nation's capital. Historian and CEO of the American Philosophical Society, Dr. Patrick Spero, who is featured in the series, joins to discuss the complex lives of the Founding Fathers, the influential role of Dolley Madison in shaping the building's social identity, and how the "People's House" has constantly evolved to meet the needs of a growing country.

The Wall Street Journal published a bombshell expose revealing unprecedented chaos at the Department of Homeland Security under Kristi Noem and her senior advisor Cory Lewandowski. Multiple sources within DHS describe an agency consumed by personal ambition, alleged romantic entanglements, and petty power struggles that have compromised national security operations. Kristi Noem and Cory Lewandowski face allegations of conducting an extramarital affair while running DHS like a reality television production. The pair reportedly use a $70 million luxury Boeing 737 Max jet with a private bedroom for travel across the country while demanding ICE agents film arrests on personal cell phones for social media content. Noem fired a Coast Guard pilot over a missing blanket, tracks television appearances obsessively to ensure she gets more airtime than Tom Homan, and refers to internal DHS meetings as cabinet meetings despite holding no such authority.Lewandowski operates as a special government employee with a 130-day annual limit but has exceeded this timeframe by avoiding badge swipes at DHS headquarters. He unsuccessfully demanded law enforcement credentials and a federally issued firearm, leading to the firing or demotion of officials who refused his requests. The former South Dakota governor and Trump campaign manager have fired 80% of career ICE field leadership, creating institutional knowledge gaps that contributed to operational failures.

Three weeks into the search for Nancy Guthrie, investigators now say a glove found near her Tucson home contains DNA and appears to match the masked man seen on her doorbell camera. Plus, Homeland Security is partially shut down after lawmakers failed to reach a deal. Now, TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard are caught in the middle. And American and Iranian officials are set to meet indirectly this week in Geneva. The White House says it wants diplomacy, while Israel says it doesn't trust Tehran.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for February 13, 2026. 0:30 If you’re in ICE detention and don’t like the conditions, there’s an option millions of legal immigrants already understand: you’re free to go home. We dismantle claims that immigration detention is “cruel” or comparable to concentration camps, a comparison that is historically ignorant and morally offensive. We explain why deportation is not punishment under Supreme Court precedent, why detention is often a choice when voluntary departure is refused, and how the Department of Homeland Security is now offering illegal immigrants financial assistance and airfare to return home. From border enforcement to national sovereignty, this conversation cuts through the grievance politics to argue a simple principle: a nation without borders is not a nation—and America’s first responsibility is to its citizens. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The Federal Government is shutting down again, at least partially.The Senate failed to pass the funding for the Department of Homeland Security this week after Democrats objected to continuing to fund ICE and immigration enforcement efforts. Inflation continued to drop this past month.That's according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Department of Transportation is ordering airlines to hire pilots based solely on merit. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 Rosie O’Donnell says she “fled” a scary America under Donald Trump—but we aren’t buying it. We dig into the celebrity meltdown narrative, arguing that O’Donnell didn’t escape authoritarianism—she escaped cultural relevance. We take aim at the idea that Trump voters are something to fear, mock the performative outrage of Hollywood elites, and point out the obvious: real exiles don’t keep U.S. passports, Hollywood access, dollar-denominated wealth, and residual checks. 16:00 We got a question in for our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burelson: What did you parents do that would get them canceled today? We dive into old-school parenting habits that once felt normal—but might trigger outrage now. From wooden spoons peeking out of purses and chain-smoking grandparents in the car, to paddling at school, drinking from the garden hose, roaming until the streetlights came on, and walking home alone with a key around your neck, the stories paint a picture of a very different America. The Mamas debate discipline, personal responsibility, and whether today’s hyper-sensitive culture has lost something important along the way. Equal parts funny and thought-provoking, this segment taps into parenting debates, generational differences, and the question many families are asking: did tough love work better than we’re willing to admit? If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 Photo ID for voting is suddenly back on the table—and this time, it might actually happen. Webreak down President Donald Trump’s threat to issue an executive order mandating voter ID in federal elections, as Congress inches closer to passing the SAVE Act. The big surprise? Senator Susan Collins is now a yes vote, signaling a major shift even in blue-state politics. We dig into why requiring state-issued photo ID to vote is being framed as “controversial,” despite IDs being required for everything from banking to voting on the U.S. Senate floor itself. And we address the claims that voter ID is racist, question lax ID policies in states like California, and argue this is only the first step toward restoring election integrity—state audits come next.With the 2026 midterms approaching, the message is clear: voter ID isn’t radical—it’s long overdue. 26:00 America’s birth-rate crisis meets peak absurdity in this jaw-dropping Valentine’s Day segment. As lawmakers and economists warn that falling population growth threatens the future of the republic, we react to a surreal new trend out of New York City: a bar hosting Valentine’s Eve “dates” for people in romantic relationships with AI-generated partners. Yes—tables for one human and one phone, courtesy of Eva AI. The conversation turns darkly comedic and brutally honest as we unpack survey data showing more than one in four adults say they’ve had a romantic relationship with artificial intelligence. This isn’t quirky tech optimism—it’s cultural rot. From porn-driven isolation to the death of courtship, the segment takes aim at a dating culture that rewards avoidance, validation, and zero personal growth. You can’t build families with a chatbot. You can’t raise future Americans with an algorithm. And you can’t save a country if men won’t shower, take a risk, and ask a real woman out. This is a blunt warning about masculinity, marriage, AI relationships, and why artificial partners are a dead end—for people and for the nation. 32:00 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 After Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl spotlight, a very different side of Puerto Rican culture is making national headlines. We react to a major legal shift in Puerto Rico, where the island’s Republican governor—an ally of Donald Trump—has signed a bill amending the criminal code to recognize an unborn child at any stage of gestation as a human being under criminal law. The change reshapes how homicide is defined, allowing the killing of a fetus during a violent crime against a pregnant woman to be prosecuted as the unlawful killing of a human being. 35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? claims about voter ID and ICE popularity to Olympic scandals, celebrity outrage, and truly ridiculous media narratives, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 39:30 Don Lemon plead not guilty after being charged with conspiracy under the FACE Act for his alleged role in a coordinated disruption of a church in Minnesota. We dismantle Lemon’s claim that he was “just doing journalism,” arguing that planning, participating, and referring to activists as “we” crosses the line from reporting into outright political activism—raising serious questions about press ethics, religious freedom, and First Amendment rights during the Donald Trump era.

This week on Face the Nation, the Department of Homeland Security is in a shutdown as negotiations over immigration enforcement rules are at a standstill. Two months into the new year, and the government is shut down yet again, this time, only partially, as disputes over President Trump's deportation policy leave lawmakers unable to fund the Department of Homeland Security. Caught in the limbo: TSA agents, the Coast Guard, FEMA employees and thousands of others, some working without pay. We ask Trump's border czar Tom Homan and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries where negotiations stand. Meanwhile, the fallout from the release of Epstein files grows as Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a grilling on Capitol Hill for her department's handling of the investigation. We talk to the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, California Congressman Robert Garcia, about what more he wants to see from the Justice Department as lawmakers get a firsthand look at the unredacted files for the first time. And finally, as world leaders gather at an annual security conference in Munich, we hear about that, and about America's standing in the world, from Republican Senator Thom Tillis.

The DHS warning about Kouri Richins isn't just about her case. It's about what we're missing.America's autopsy rate has collapsed to 8.5%, with natural-looking deaths autopsied just 4.3% of the time. Death certificates are wrong roughly a third of the time. The January 2026 Department of Homeland Security bulletin documented seventeen spousal poisoning cases since 2014 with at least eleven deaths — substances like cyanide, antifreeze, fentanyl, and common eye drops all chosen because they mimic natural illness. DHS specifically cited Richins' upcoming trial as part of this accelerating national pattern.This episode examines three convicted spousal poisoners — James Craig, Lana Clayton, and Stacey Castor — who each nearly escaped detection, and connects their cases to the Richins trial and the systemic failures that let poisoners walk free. The system didn't catch any of them. A person did every time.Richins is charged with aggravated murder in the 2022 fentanyl death of her husband Eric in Kamas, Utah. Prosecutors allege she spiked his cocktail with five times the lethal amount after a failed attempt on Valentine's Day two weeks earlier. The alleged motive: her realty company owed at least $1.8 million while Eric's estate was worth roughly $5 million.The defense says publicity has poisoned the jury pool beyond repair. Judge Richard Mrazik disagreed, denying their second venue change motion after prosecutors pointed to 830 potential jurors who hadn't heard of the case or hadn't followed it. What makes this case so well-known isn't media coverage — it's the allegations themselves. A children's book about grief. A six-page jailhouse letter allegedly laying out fabricated testimony. A drug source who now says under oath he never sold fentanyl at all.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Cecily Marcus, Director of Collections for the Minnesota Historical Society in St. Paul, Minnesota. For the past few months, Minneapolis and St. Paul have been the target of the Trump Administration's Department of Homeland Security and what the federal government calls “Operation Metro Surge.” Two American citizens - Renee Good and Alex Pretti - were shot to death by federal agents in Minneapolis in January 2026. Demonstrations have been largely peaceful, but chaotic scenes of raids and riot suppression have been a fixture in the media for those who don't live there. CASCADE OF HISTORY reached out to the Minnesota Historical Society to get a sense of what it's been like to cope with the reality on the streets and in the communities of Minnesota, and to learn how they are responding – from an artifact and collections perspective – during this, to put it mildly, historically significant time. CASCADE OF HISTORY spoke with Cecily Marcus on Friday, February 13, 2026. Minnesota Historical Society website: https://www.mnhs.org/ CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via flagship station SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org.

The Wall Street Journal just published a major exposé detailing chaos, self-promotion, and serious ethical concerns inside the Department of Homeland Security under Kristi Noem. From the $70 million government jet… to the $200 million ad campaign… to ICE raids staged for cameras… this report raises hard questions about leadership, corruption, and accountability. For years, I've warned that Kristi Noem's immigration strategy wasn't just aggressive — it was performative. Built on demonization. Fueled by publicity. Designed for presidential ambition. Now even conservative insiders appear to be pushing back.

United States is an unprecedented form of self-sabotage or national suicide, where the greatest nation deliberately opened its borders, imported people from regions who refuse to assimilate, contribute, or integrate, and instead seek to destroy and conquer from within. This is not a hostile invasion, but a celebrated parade enabled by the Democrat Party, liberal groups in Europe and elsewhere, and secularists, and who believe in unrestricted openness. Later, the media report on every instance when ICE detains someone who, it later turns out, should not have been detained. There will always be some level of misidentification when dealing with such large numbers of people and chaotic situations. There were no endless news reports on what has happened to people when the border was wide open, and the brutality and inhumanity resulting from that policy. The murdered, raped, and otherwise brutalized American citizens are mostly ignored. The media are so completely in the tank for the Democrats and the left, they're open and blatant about it and don't give a damn. Also, this debt crisis in America predates President Trump – it stems from a massive welfare state which expanded to include illegal aliens, unchecked waste, fraud, and abuse costing hundreds of billions annually, and out-of-control Marxist-socialist policies. Congress is unable to fix this problem because Democrats want to spend even more. Unchecked fiscal irresponsibility risks economic collapse, worthless currency, stagflation, societal dislocation, and violent riots if the system fails. We need to ensure that our republic survives! Lastly, the Democrats in the House voted against funding key components of the Department of Homeland Security, including FEMA, TSA, the Secret Service, and others, while ICE funding continues through 2027. Democrats are pushing demands that would severely hamper ICE's ability to identify, apprehend, detain, and deport illegal aliens, while granting increased protections to them. Democrats will orchestrate a propaganda campaign, with media assistance, to blame Republicans for resulting inconveniences to air travelers and disaster victims when they shut down the government.

Friends,Happy Valentine's Day. Thanks for joining us. Today, Heather and I delve into the extremely un-Valentine-like world of Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, and America's ruling class. What do they have in common, and what does this tell us about America? Along the way we examine Pam Bondi's belligerence, Steve Bannon's complicity, and the Trump economy's woes. We'll also look into the real economy — you know, the one that most of us live in — and why so many Americans are feeling pinched and angry (and deserting Trump). And we'll look at the continuing calamity of ICE, Trump's (and Stephen Miller's and Kristi Noem's) war on Latinos, and the shutdown (starting this morning) of the Department of Homeland Security.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, First Lady Melania Trump calls in to explain how she successfully facilitated the return of Russian and Ukrainian children to their families after they were separated because of the war. She also discusses her new movie – MELANIA, which is in theaters now. Afterward, the Democrats in the House voted against funding key components of the Department of Homeland Security, including FEMA, TSA, the Secret Service, and others, while ICE funding continues through 2027.  Democrats are pushing demands that would severely hamper ICE's ability to identify, apprehend, detain, and deport illegal aliens, while granting increased protections to them. Democrats will orchestrate a propaganda campaign, with media assistance, to blame Republicans for resulting inconveniences to air travelers and disaster victims when they shut down the government. Later, several members of Congress, including Senator Mark Kelly released a video urging military personnel and intelligence community members to defy or turn against the commander-in-chief without justification.  Secretary of War Pete Hegseth took action against Kelly arguing that allowing such actions to go unchecked erodes military discipline and standards. But federal judge Richard Leon for issuing a ruling that blocked the Pentagon's attempt to strip Kelly of his rank and pension, calling the decision contemptible, stupid, and an overreach. Leon should retire or leave the bench now.  Finally, Don Hodel calls in to discuss his new book: Called to Serve: My Path to President Reagan's Cabinet and Beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they wrap up the weekdiscussing the latest elites caught up in the Epstein scandal, the media's curious silence over a record-setting sewage spill into the Potomac River, and Congress leaves town for more than a week without funding the Department of Homeland Security.First, they react to newly reported details about Jeffrey Epstein's connections to former Obama White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, far-leftauthor and commentator Noam Chomsky, and the owner of Lifetouch, one of the nation's largest school photography companies. Jim underscores the breathtaking indifference many elites appeared to show toward Epstein's admitted crimes.Next, they examine what is now being described as the worst wastewater disaster in U.S. history: a massive sewage spill into the Potomac River. Despite the scale and environmental impact, both local and national media outlets have shown strikingly little interest. Jim points out how much the media covers a disaster like this depends almost entirely upon whom they can blame for it.Finally, they fume as a partial government shutdown will begin at midnight because Democrats refuse to fund the Department of Homeland Security because of their temper tantrum over ICE. Meanwhile, lawmakers won't even be in town next week.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your sleep with Brooklyn Bedding and get 30% off sitewide at https://BrooklynBedding.com when you use promo code 3ML at checkout.Find your way forward with BetterHelp when you sign up at https://www.BetterHelp.com/3ML to get 10% off your first month.Upgrade your wardrobe with Mizzen & Main — get 20% off your first purchase at https://MizzenandMain.com with promo code 3ML20.New episodes every weekday.
