Podcast appearances and mentions of JD Vance

This is a preview of our regular Weekender show released in full every Friday on our Patreon at patreon.com/muckrakepodcast Please support the show by subscribing and unlocking special content as well as access to our discord and live shows. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman ring in 2026 with resolutions, sugar hangovers, and a hard look at how a viral YouTube stunt and JD Vance's megaphone spiraled into a federal freeze on Minnesota child-care funds. They break down the racist scapegoating of Somali communities, which plays right into the right's conspiracy theories, and why this is political retribution dressed up as oversight. Then it's the latest Epstein revelations implicating Mar-a-Lago's spa pipeline and how it connects to Trump even more deeply before focuing on the Supreme Court's refusal to bless federal troop deployments that might turn into a roadmap for even more law-breaking. "What We're Watching" looks at the Stranger Things finale and why nostalgia is starting to feel like content slurry.

Cristina Gomez discusses Congressman Eric Burlison's latest interview revealing a potentially major new UAP whistleblower, his outreach to Vice President JD Vance to visit classified facilities, and Richard Dolan's research into unidentified submerged objects showing a dramatic shift in sighting patterns after 1967.To see the VIDEO of this episode, click or copy link - https://youtu.be/0EKbzgh4FjMVisit my website with International UFO News, Articles, Videos, and Podcast direct links -www.ufonews.co00:00 - Major UFO Whistleblower Coming Forward01:49 - Best UFO Witness They Have Had02:31 - Why Congress Avoids UAP Topic03:34 - UAPDA Blocked Again04:32 - Burlison Wants Inside Facilities05:27 - JD Vance Outreach Revealed07:00 - UFO Videos Being PursuedBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strange-and-unexplained--5235662/support.

With local elections looming in May, Labour collapsing in the polls, and Westminster rumbling with leadership intrigue, Marc Sidwell asks whether Sir Keir Starmer is heading for a reckoning — and whether figures like Ed Miliband could seize the moment. Meanwhile, Reform UK continues to hover around the 30% mark, the Conservatives search for a bounce under Kemi Badenoch, and Britain's politics looks increasingly like a multi-party fight.In this new year forecast, Marc is joined by Joseph Dinnage, Deputy Editor of CapX, to map the fault-lines of the next 12 months — from the battle for the right, to the economic hard choices that no party can dodge, to America's 250th birthday under Donald Trump and the possibility of a post-Trump succession fight led by JD Vance. If 2025 was the year the centre cracked, 2026 may be the year it fully gives way.Stay informed with CapX's unmissable daily briefings from the heart of Westminster. Go to capx.co to subscribe.

After a year that saw no shortage of heavy legal news, Mary and Andrew close out 2025 with an episode of positive judicial developments. They begin with the Supreme Court's decision denying President Trump's request to stay an injunction blocking the federalization of National Guard troops in Illinois, concluding that the statute the government used to justify it first requires an attempt to execute federal laws with the military – which would likely require invocation of the Insurrection Act. And nobody seems to want that. At least not yet. The co-hosts then turn to D.C. District Court Judge Jeb Boasberg's decision on the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act. He wrote that because the U.S. maintained constructive custody over Venezuelans expelled to El Salvador, they are legally owed due process rights. Last up, they note two judges who are demanding proof that the government is not acting vindictively — from the administration's prosecution of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the presidential memo that stripped the security clearance of national security lawyer Mark Zaid.Editors' Note: While Andrew and Mary were recording this episode, an order from Judge Crenshaw in Abrego Garcia's criminal case was unsealed. It confirms the DOJ pushed to prosecute Kilmar Abrego Garcia only after he was mistakenly deported.

Jimmy and documentary filmmaker Ryan Matta criticize TPUSA's recent AmericaFest event, highlighting Tim Dillon's commentary that Erika Kirk's flashy, Hollywood-style entrance and early endorsement of JD Vance felt staged, elitist, and disconnected from everyday people. They accuse Ben Shapiro of influencing TPUSA toward a pro-Israel direction and allege growing internal tension at the organization.  The two also discuss the multiple claims and suspicious allegations surrounding Charlie Kirk's death, donor influence, and TPUSA's future, framed as a hostile takeover driven by powerful interests. Overall, the video portrays TPUSA as shifting from grassroots authenticity to a choreographed spectacle driven by wealthy donors, media manipulation, and political positioning. Plus segments on Candace Owens getting the last laugh at her haters' failed attempts to debunk the Ft. Huachuca story and Briahna Joy Gray's suspension from Instagram for telling the truth about Israel. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

In this episode, we examine the realities behind universal health care by looking at Canada's system, wait times, medical tourism, and cases where patients are denied life-saving treatment. We discuss the rise of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, the economics behind high drug prices, and why “miracle” medications often create new dependencies and unintended costs. We scrutinize airline incivility, declining standards of behavior, and why airlines are reluctant to enforce norms despite growing problems. Phil Magness also joins us to discuss the internal collapse of the Heritage Foundation, the rise of post-liberal conservatism, and the growing influence of figures like Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes. We explore tensions within the Republican Party, the appeal of emergency powers on both the left and right, the dangers of mixing religion with state authority, and what these trends mean for the future of American politics. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:28 Canadian Health Care and the Myth of “Free” Medicine 02:38 When Universal Health Care Denies Life-Saving Treatment 04:50 Wait Times, Medical Tourism, and U.S. vs Canada Outcomes 06:16 Ozempic, Wegovy, and the Economics of Weight-Loss Drugs 08:52 Why Expensive Drugs Create Cheaper Alternatives 10:05 Side Effects, Dependency, and the Cost of “Miracle” Drugs 10:36 Airline Incivility and Delta's Class-Based Explanation 12:28 Why Airlines Refuse to Enforce Behavioral Standards 13:52 Why Flying Is Cheaper Than Ever (and Why That Matters) 15:22 Horror Stories From the Skies 18:07 Introducing Phil Magness 19:14 The Implosion of the Heritage Foundation 22:34 Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and the Post-Liberal Right 25:24 Mass Resignations and the Collapse of Heritage's Core 28:52 Post-Liberalism and the Rejection of the American Founding 32:00 Is the Republican Party Fracturing? 34:34 Mike Pence and the Future of Free-Market Conservatism 37:08 The Left and Right's Shared Authoritarian Instincts 39:21 Emergency Powers, Carl Schmitt, and Executive Absolutism 44:06 Why Emergency Government Always Expands 46:58 Christian Nationalism and Catholic Integralism 50:03 Why Religion and State Power Don't Mix 52:12 Who Really Wants Political Power? 54:52 Trump as a Lame-Duck President 55:45 JD Vance, 2028, and Electoral Reality 58:11 Why Both Parties Keep Nominating Losers 01:02:27 Conclusion Learn more about your ad choices.

As Elon Musk checked out of DOGE and left government service, he promised he would be starting his own political party: the America party. Now, it appears he is back in the fickle embrace of MAGA… and it's no accident. According to the Washington Post, Vice President JD Vance spent much of the summer and fall working to bring Musk back into the good graces of Donald Trump.Despite disagreements on the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” and the Epstein files, Musk really wanted his associate Jared Isaacman to lead NASA. After Trump pulled the nomination, Vance reportedly paved the way for Isaacman to be re-nominated and then confirmed. The Trump-Musk truce is in place, but for how long?We welcome Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston to the show to talk politics.It's Tech Tuesday on The Mark Thompson Show.

The show covers a mix of personal and societal topics. In Hour 1, the hosts discuss seasonal celebrations, gift-giving habits, and navigating the holiday chaos. Hour 2 highlights educational challenges, focusing on a Dallas teacher reporting alarming literacy gaps among her eighth-grade students and exploring the shared responsibilities of parents and schools. Hour 3 brings lighter, family-focused stories about managing toys and outings, followed by frustrations with rental housing and government programs. Hour 4 shifts to politics, examining the low Republican support for JD Vance, polling reliability, and public reactions to his personal and political life, concluding with reflections on faith and character. Throughout, the show balances human interest stories, practical advice, and current events commentary.

Heidi Harrison covers a mix of personal reflections and current events: she starts with holiday celebrations and traditions, including Friendsgiving, gift-giving, and parenting strategies. The discussion shifts to troubling education trends, highlighting a Dallas teacher's TikTok report on students struggling with basic literacy skills, and the broader challenges of parental involvement and school accountability. Later segments tackle practical family life topics like toy rotation, holiday spending, and attending kid-friendly events like Monster Jam. The hour closes with political commentary on taxpayer-funded rental assistance abuses under Biden and an analysis of JD Vance's potential candidacy, public perception, and personal reputation.

Unappetitliche Verschwörungstheorien gehen jetzt nach hinten los, findet WDR 2 Kabarettist Florian Schroeder: die Akten des Sexualstraftäters Jeffrey Epstein zeigten, dass auch die Rechtsextremen in der US-Regierung offenbar die korrupte Elite sind, als die sie ihre Gegner immer verunglimpft haben. Von Florian Schroeder.

La première intervention terrestre des États-Unis au Venezuela a eu lieu la semaine dernière. Donald Trump l'a révélée dans une interview diffusée à la radio, vendredi 26 décembre. Lundi 29 décembre, il a donné quelques détails : c'est un quai situé sur la côte vénézuélienne, qui servait à des trafiquants de drogue à charger des bateaux, qui a été détruit. CNN et le New York Times affirment que c'est la CIA qui a mené la frappe, sans doute mercredi selon le quotidien. Selon ces médias, une frappe de drone a anéanti une installation portuaire utilisée par le gang Tren de Aragua et a fait aucun mort. Cette opération est avant tout symbolique, explique l'une des sources anonymes citées par CNN, car il y a énormément d'installations portuaires de ce genre au Venezuela. D'ailleurs, l'affaire n'a fait grand bruit dans le pays. Mais pour le New York Times, cette frappe marque « le début d'une phase plus agressive dans la campagne que mène l'administration Trump contre le gouvernement Maduro ». Elle « pourrait accroître considérablement les tensions entre les États-Unis et le président vénézuélien », acquiesce CNN. Comment JD Vance a réussi à convaincre Elon Musk de ne pas créer de parti politique Souvenez-vous, c'était au printemps dernier : la fin de la bromance entre Donald Trump et Elon Musk, les insultes par réseaux sociaux interposés et cette promesse du milliardaire de créer un troisième parti politique qui suscite des inquiétudes au sein du camp MAGA. Le Washington Post raconte comment en coulisses, JD Vance, qui a peur pour les mid-terms, fait tout pour que Musk renonce à son projet. Il demande leur aide aux proches d'Elon Musk, promet de soutenir son candidat à la tête de la Nasa... Et ça marche ! Aujourd'hui, Donald Trump et Elon Musk sont à nouveau en bons termes, écrit le quotidien. Une trêve toutefois fragile, relève encore le journal qui met en garde Donald Trump et JD Vance qui aimerait compter sur Elon Musk pour la présidentielle de 2028 : quand le milliardaire soutient financièrement quelqu'un, il attend beaucoup en retour. Il aime « accaparer l'attention et veut orienter la politique selon sa propre vision du monde », écrit le Washington Post. À lire aussiDonald Trump dit que les États-Unis ont détruit un quai lié, selon lui, au narcotrafic au Venezuela Hausse « historique » du salaire minimum en Colombie En Colombie, la décision du président d'augmenter de plus de 23% le salaire minimum à partir de jeudi 1er janvier, provoque des réactions, pas seulement positives. « C'est un jour de fête pour les travailleurs et les classes populaires », s'est réjoui hier la Centrale unitaire des Travailleurs, rapporte El Tiempo. Les syndicats qui avaient demandé une hausse de 16%, ne s'attendaient pas à une telle augmentation. Mais ce cadeau de Noël passe mal auprès des patrons, prévient El Espectador  qui dans un article, se propose de décrypter « le bon, le mauvais et le laid » de cette décision. « Lo bueno, lo malo y lo feo » en espagnol, un jeu de mots car c'est aussi la traduction du film «  Le bon, la brute et le truand ». Avec cette augmentation bien supérieure à l'inflation, le président espère relancer l'économie, explique le quotidien. Mais attention, préviennent les chefs d'entreprises et des experts, c'est surtout l'inflation et les dépenses publiques qui risquent de s'emballer. La méthode employée par Gustavo Petro fait aussi débat. Le président a pris cette décision tout seul, ce que dénonce l'Association des entrepreneurs de Colombie. Il « a créé le concept de "revenu minimum vital", sans une discussion large, ouverte et démocratique », rapporte El Tiempo. Comme le souligne El Espectador, à quelques mois de la présidentielle, l'opposition y voit « un calcul électoral ».   Haïti : accusations d'une ONG contre la police Gazette Haïti se fait l'écho d'une lettre envoyée par le Réseau national de défense des droits humains (RNDDH) à l'Inspection générale de la police, dans lequel cette ONG dénonce la « connivence » entre des membres des forces de l'ordre et trois gangs dans l'Artibonite. Au moins sept agents « sont accusés d'avoir vendu des munitions et des armes, ainsi que de fournir des informations stratégiques de la Police nationale d'Haïti (PNH) aux groupes criminels lors des opérations policières », de les former et de gérer avec eux des « postes de rançonnement », explique le journal. Des membres des gangs auraient même infiltré les forces de l'ordre déployées dans l'Artibonite. Le Réseau national de défense des droits humains demande une enquête et des sanctions. Comment lutter contre la corruption en Haïti En Haïti, la plateforme Ensemble contre la corruption a présenté sa feuille de route sous l'égide du programme des Nations Unies pour le développement (Pnud). Ce document est le fruit de plusieurs mois de travail avec de nombreux acteurs de la société civile et des représentants d'institutions publiques telles que le ministère de l'Économie et l'Unité de lutte contre la corruption. Cette feuille de route contient une vingtaine de propositions que détaille Edouard Plautre, le secrétaire exécutif d'Ensemble contre la corruption qu'a interrogé Romain Lemaresquier. Du progrès dans la préservation des iguanes des Galapagos L'archipel des Galapagos a beau être isolé dans le Pacifique, à 1000 kilomètres du continent, il n'est pas à l'abri des trafiquants d'espèces protégées. Il a beaucoup été question ces dernières années, de vols de bébés tortues géantes, mais la contrebande touche aussi les iguanes terrestres et marins. Il y a quelques semaines, la vingtième réunion de la Convention sur le commerce international des espèces menacées de faune et flore sauvages (Cites) qui s'est déroulée en Ouzbékistan, a débouché sur une bonne nouvelle pour les défenseurs des iguanes des Galapagos. Ces animaux ont été déplacés de l'appendice 2 à l'appendice 1. Leur commerce est, donc, désormais interdit, sauf pour des fins scientifiques. Reportage de notre correspondant en Equateur, Eric Samson. Le journal de la 1ère On connaît le nombre exact d'habitants en Guyane.

Make Europe Great Again en BNR Beurs slaan de handen ineen. Met Michal van der Toorn kijken we naar het bizarre jaar dat Europa had. Aan de hand van vijf speeches vertelt Michal hoe de Amerikanen in stappen afscheid namen van Europa. Je hoort wanneer de eerste barstjes zichtbaar waren en hoe de relatie ten einde komt. Ook gaat het over de enorme defensie-uitgaven die Europa moet doen. Een kans voor de Europese economie, maar worden landen niet elkaars grote concurrenten? Mario Draghi komt ook voorbij. Michal denkt dat zijn veelbesproken rapport eindelijk wordt uitgevoerd. Waardoor we dus flinke investeringen gaan zien.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Guest host Lady La joins Chris for a wide-ranging hour that begins with a cultural curveball: Nicki Minaj surprising a conservative Arizona crowd by publicly praising Donald Trump and JD Vance. The moment sparks a deeper conversation about celebrity politics, authenticity, and why public figures keep stepping into political debates despite predictable backlash. From there, the show zooms out to examine the modern fame economy—where attention, outrage, and relevance often matter more than consistency, and why politicians are wise to keep celebrity endorsements at arm’s length. The hour continues with a major tech update as TikTok signs a deal to divest its U.S. operations, raising questions about data security, national influence, and whether the platform is truly ever going away. Finally, the conversation turns cultural again, exploring how TikTok and algorithms are resurrecting old music, reshaping charts, and pushing the entertainment industry toward nostalgia, AI-assisted creativity, and safer bets heading into 2026. A fast-moving mix of politics, pop culture, tech, and media, connecting the dots between influence, identity, and why everything old suddenly feels new again.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 44: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Why isn’t Trump bombing RUSSIAN terrorist scum who have been targeting and viciously killing innocent Christians in UKRAINE? I mean now that our White Supremacist Theocratic Bandit government has gone into the Crusades business; now that per Trump we’re bombing to kill ISIS terrorist scum “who have been targeting and viciously killing...innocent Christians” in NIGERIA, shouldn't yesterday's meeting with Zelensky have been about how Trump is going to protect the Christians in Ukraine - and Ukraine is an 85% Christian country - by bombing the Russian terrorist scum who have been targeting and viciously killing innocent Christians IN Ukraine? I'm not holding my breath. But since it's obvious that yesterday all Trump did was stall, just as all he's been doing since he again seized power is stalling on Putin's behalf (he even took a call from Putin 72 minutes before the Zelensky meeting began), isn't this tack supporters of Ukraine and Europe and world freedom who aren't morons like Trump or Rubio who think 'it's not our war because OCEANS' (a logical argument as long as this is the year 1909) should now take? ALSO: THE TRUMP PARDON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX? It seems brand new. In fact there was a lawsuit alleging Rudy Giuliani told his girlfriend he and Trump were selling pardons for $2,000,000 apiece as long ago as 2019. And we check in MAGA stupidity, how even Brian Krassenstein trolled them, and why on earth Stephen Miller would think the term "sexual matador" is a compliment given how much he hates Mexicans and Spanish-speaking people like, you know, Matadors. B-Block (33:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Somebody actually tries to insult the Pope by calling him "Holier Than Thou"; WSJ has a piece blasting Jack Smith written by the first lawyer Trump hired to defend himself against Jack Smith, the ironically named "James Trusty"; Trump is finally hoisted on his lawsuit petard. If we damaged you financially or emotionally, says the Pulitzer Prize Board, we're going to know by how much so we'll need all your fiancial and emotional health records. C-Block (46:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: What did you get for Christmas? I got a Baseball Cap! From Ted Turner! Of course, this is Christmas 1982 I'm talking about. The saga of Ted, my first tv job, and what might have been my last tv job after he and I argued in public. But it ended happily - with baseball caps for Christmas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reports of an intense backlash at TPUSA's AmericaFest conference were not exaggerated, as younger conservatives in particular questioned Israel policy, foreign aid, and the historical 1967 USS Liberty incident, challenging Ben Shapiro's dismissal of it as "irrelevant."  Jimmy highlights a viral exchange where an attendee confronts Shapiro, argues that the attack was deliberate, and frames the issue as putting "America first" rather than prioritizing Israel. TPUSA leadership and conservative media figures have been accused of suppressing criticism of Israel, while portraying a generational shift inside the conservative movement toward skepticism of U.S.–Israel relations.  Jimmy also amplifies claims from USS Liberty survivors and critics who dispute official findings, positioning the debate as part of larger infighting over Zionism, foreign policy, censorship, and influence within conservative politics. Plus segments on Megyn Kelly accusing Shapiro of amplifying antisemitism, Steve Bannon going scorched earth on Shapiro and accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson's defense team's curious ties to the Turning Point USA team. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a series of well-wishing holiday phone calls to Jimmy from George Clooney, Kash Patel, JD Vance and more!

Something powerful was happening at AmericaFest, and it revealed more than headlines could ever capture. I unpack the spiritual significance of what was said and felt in the room, including the moment JD Vance declared that America has been and will remain a Christian nation by the grace of God. What emerges is a clear picture of where God is stirring courage, conviction, and clarity for the days ahead, and why this moment calls believers to stand with confidence rather than fear.   Podcast Episode 1980: This Is The Big Story That Tells Us Whats Coming In 2026! | don't miss this!

This Day in Legal History: Wounded KneeOn December 29, 1890, the U.S. Army's 7th Cavalry Regiment surrounded a Lakota Sioux encampment near Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. The soldiers had orders to disarm the Lakota, who had recently fled the Standing Rock Reservation following the killing of Sitting Bull. Tensions were high, and as troops attempted to confiscate weapons, a shot was fired—its origin remains unclear. What followed was a brutal onslaught in which U.S. forces opened fire on largely unarmed Lakota men, women, and children. Estimates suggest that between 250 and 300 Lakota were killed, many while fleeing or after surrendering.The Wounded Knee Massacre was the final major confrontation between Native Americans and the U.S. military during the so-called Indian Wars. It marked the culmination of decades of broken treaties and violent enforcement of federal Indian policy. Despite the civilian toll, 20 soldiers were later awarded the Medal of Honor, a decision that has since drawn sustained criticism and calls for revocation. The legal status of the massacre—framed at the time as a military engagement—has increasingly been re-evaluated through the lens of human rights law and treaty violations.The Lakota were supposed to be protected under treaties like the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, which guaranteed their land and autonomy. However, the discovery of gold in the Black Hills and growing U.S. expansionism led to the steady erosion of those promises. Wounded Knee became a symbol of that betrayal and the failure of the U.S. government to uphold its legal obligations. In 1990, on the massacre's centennial, Congress passed a resolution expressing “deep regret” but stopped short of issuing a formal apology. The massacre remains a central moment in the legal and political history of Native American rights in the United States.California announced it had dropped its lawsuit against the federal government over the Trump administration's decision to cancel over $4 billion in high-speed rail funding. The California High-Speed Rail Authority said the move reflected a lack of trust in the federal government as a reliable partner. Despite the loss of funds, the agency stated it would continue the project using mostly state resources, noting that only 18% of total expenditures have come from federal dollars. A judge had recently declined to dismiss the case, but California chose to end the legal fight regardless.The U.S. Department of Transportation supported the funding withdrawal, citing a Federal Railroad Administration report that found the rail project riddled with missed deadlines, budget issues, and unrealistic ridership forecasts. Governor Gavin Newsom previously criticized the cuts as politically motivated and driven by Trump's hostility toward California. The high-speed rail project, initially expected to cost $33 billion and be completed by 2020, is now projected to cost up to $128 billion with a completion target of 2033. So far, over 50 major structures and nearly 80 miles of guideway have been built.The state plans to attract private investors by mid-2026 and emphasized that construction will continue. Recent legislation provides $1 billion in annual state funding through 2045. Earlier in 2025, the federal government also rescinded $175 million for related projects. Despite legal and financial setbacks, the state remains committed to building the rail line connecting Los Angeles and San Francisco.California drops lawsuit over Trump decision to pull $4 billion in high-speed rail funds | ReutersLongtime Motel 6 spokesman Tom Bodett settled a lawsuit against the motel chain after accusing it of using his name and voice without consent. Bodett, who became synonymous with the brand through his signature line, “we'll leave the light on for you,” alleged the company continued using his likeness even after their professional relationship ended. The dispute arose when Motel 6's new parent company, OYO, allegedly failed to make a $1.2 million contractual payment due in January, prompting Bodett to terminate their agreement.Despite the split, Bodett claimed his voice and name remained on Motel 6's reservation phone system, violating federal trademark law and the terms of their contract. The company denied any wrongdoing, arguing Bodett himself breached the agreement, which they said nullified their payment obligation. The lawsuit, filed in June, was resolved in Manhattan federal court, though the settlement terms remain confidential.Bodett, now 70, is a well-known author and voice actor, with credits including NPR and Ken Burns documentaries. He had been the face and voice of Motel 6 since 1986 and was responsible for creating the brand's iconic tagline. The lawsuit came after Motel 6 was acquired by India-based OYO, part of Prism (formerly Oravel Stays), in a $525 million deal from Blackstone in December 2024.Longtime Motel 6 spokesman Tom Bodett settles lawsuit against chain | ReutersFBI Director Kash Patel announced a surge in federal investigative resources to Minnesota to probe alleged fraud involving public funds. While the FBI has offered few specifics, Patel's comments followed the circulation of a viral video showing allegedly inactive daycare centers in the state receiving government subsidies. Republican officials, including U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer and Vice President JD Vance, quickly amplified the video online, calling for action and linking the issue to broader concerns about state oversight.Critics, however, argue that the investigation is politically and racially charged. The Trump administration has repeatedly pointed to Minnesota's Somali American community as the center of alleged fraud, even as immigrant-rights groups warn that the pattern of enforcement suggests targeted profiling rather than impartial justice. The FBI has not clarified whether the focus on Somali defendants is supported by broader data or if the agency is treating these cases as representative of a larger trend.Governor Tim Walz's office has not yet commented, though tensions have grown between federal and state officials over the framing and scope of the investigations. Many of those charged in recent fraud cases are of Somali descent, according to federal sources cited by CBS News, but the disproportionate attention has led to accusations that the government is conflating individual criminal acts with an entire immigrant community.The lack of transparency about evidence and investigatory methods has fueled concerns that the DOJ under Trump may be using criminal enforcement as a political tool. Given President Trump's repeated attacks on Minnesota's Somali population, observers view this surge not as neutral law enforcement, but as part of a broader strategy to vilify immigrants and score political points.FBI investigating Minnesota fraud scheme, director says | ReutersNew York Governor Kathy Hochul announced a new state law requiring social media platforms to display mental health warning labels on features such as infinite scroll, auto-play, and algorithm-driven feeds. The law targets platform elements deemed “addictive” and likely to encourage compulsive use among young users. It reflects growing concerns over the impact of social media on youth mental health and follows recent actions in other jurisdictions, including Australia's ban on social media for children under 16.Under the law, platforms that operate partly or entirely in New York must comply, even if users access the services while physically outside the state. Enforcement authority rests with the New York Attorney General, who may bring civil suits and seek penalties of up to $5,000 per violation. Hochul likened the labels to those found on tobacco products or plastic packaging, positioning them as a public health measure designed to inform and protect.Major companies like Meta, TikTok, Snap, and Alphabet have not yet responded publicly to the law. The move aligns with ongoing legal efforts across the U.S., including lawsuits by school districts against social media companies and recommendations from the U.S. Surgeon General for stronger safety measures and clearer warnings. Critics may question the efficacy or enforceability of such warnings, especially in a fragmented digital landscape, but New York's law signals a growing willingness by states to directly regulate platform design in the name of mental health.New York to require social media platforms to display mental health warnings | Reuters This is a public episode.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for December 23, 2025. 0:30 We react to a 6–3 Supreme Court ruling blocking the president from deploying the National Guard to protect federal officers and property in Chicago — at least for now. We dig into the shadow docket ruling, sharp dissents from Justices Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch, and what this means for sanctuary cities nationwide. Is this a narrow procedural pause, or a dangerous precedent that weakens federal authority? This decision raises serious questions about executive power, immigration enforcement, and whether the Constitution now bends to sanctuary politics. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The US economy grew at an impressive 4.3% in the third quarter of this year according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. President Trump is tripling the self-deportation bonus for illegal immigrants through the end of the year. Former Republican Senator Ben Sasse announced he has pancreatic cancer. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 A controversial ICE holiday stunt ignites debate with an AI video depicting a muscular, tactical Santa Claus as an ICE officer. We break down ICE’s nationwide enforcement push, including a $3,000 self-deportation incentive and paid airfare for illegal immigrants — and ask whether using Santa Claus crosses a cultural line. While acknowledging the legality of enforcement and self-deportation efforts, we question the optics, the use of AI over real artists, and the impact on children who associate Santa with Christmas, not immigration raids. Is this tough-but-fair messaging, or a step too far that politicizes a holiday icon? 16:00 We ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson how they are celebrating Christmas this year. A heartfelt Christmas conversation with the American Mamas turns reflective as traditions, faith, and culture collide. From decorating habits and post-Christmas takedowns to honoring family traditions like a beloved Christmas soup party, the discussion quickly moves beyond schedules and decorations. We dive into growing nostalgia for “old-fashioned” Christmas, concerns about cultural and spiritual erosion, and a shared sense that faith itself is under pressure. As fewer Americans attend church but still celebrate Christmas, the Mamas explore whether a spiritual awakening is underway — and why more people are speaking openly about Christian values again. It’s a timely, emotional look at Christmas not just as a holiday, but as a cultural and spiritual battleground. 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 A bombshell claim out of Fulton County, Georgia is raising fresh questions about the integrity of the 2020 election — and why the story isn’t getting more attention. County officials have admitted that more than 315,000 ballots were counted without legally required signatures, despite Georgia law mandating them. With the presidential race in Georgia decided by roughly 11,000 votes and Fulton County overwhelmingly favoring Joe Biden, the numbers alone demand serious scrutiny. We compare this revelation to similar disputes in Pennsylvania and Arizona, question past Supreme Court rulings on standing, and contend that if the political roles were reversed, the media response would be deafening. Instead, the story is being buried because it challenges an outcome that was already deemed settled. 26:30 Early 2028 presidential buzz is already heating up, and a new straw poll is sending a clear message about where conservative voters are leaning. At Turning Point USA, JD Vance didn’t just win — he dominated, pulling in an overwhelming share of the vote and leaving every other potential contender in the dust. The margin was so lopsided it raised eyebrows even among seasoned political watchers, especially this far out from an election. We Dig Deep into what that landslide says about the future of the Republican Party, Donald Trump’s continued influence, and why candidates who don’t align with an America First tone may be effectively shut out. On the Democrat side, the picture looks far less settled, with shaky polling, internal contradictions, and big-name contenders facing tough questions about leadership, competence, and vision. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 A rare dose of real accountability out of California? A new Los Angeles Times investigation is raising serious questions about how the Los Angeles Fire Department handled — and then quietly rewrote — its own after-action report following the devastating Palisades fire. According to the report, key details that reflected poorly on leadership and preparedness were stripped out, softened, or renamed before the public ever saw them. 36:00 We have a Bright Spot coming out of California and it's a major win for parents' rights and common sense. A court has struck down a controversial state policy that allowed teachers and school administrators to socially transition students at school — including changing names and pronouns — without informing parents. The ruling came after two California teachers, joined by parents and the Thomas More Society, sued the state, arguing the policy violated both their religious convictions and long-standing parental authority. 40:00 Just days before Christmas, the Trump administration is moving aggressively to crack down on fraudulent asylum claims — and it’s sending shockwaves through the immigration system. ICE attorneys are now filing motions to dismiss thousands of pending asylum cases without hearings, following a new directive that forces immigration judges to rule on third-country eligibility before asylum claims are even heard. The burden has officially shifted to asylum seekers to prove their claims are legitimate, a major change after years of overwhelming evidence showing most claims lacked merit. With as many as 85–95% of asylum applications previously found to be bogus, the administration is zeroing in on cases from countries like Iran, Nicaragua, and Russia. 41:30 And we finish off with the first White House Christmas.

JD Vance's ‘White' Comments Trigger Blacks Online

In this segment Jimmy and documentary filmmaker Ryan Matta criticize TPUSA's recent AmericaFest event, highlighting Tim Dillon's commentary that Erika Kirk's flashy, Hollywood-style entrance and early endorsement of JD Vance felt staged, elitist, and disconnected from everyday people. They accuse Ben Shapiro of influencing TPUSA toward a pro-Israel direction and allege growing internal tension at the organization.  Jimmy and Ryan also discuss the multiple claims and suspicious allegations surrounding Charlie Kirk's death, donor influence, and TPUSA's future, framed as a hostile takeover driven by powerful interests. Overall, the video portrays TPUSA as shifting from grassroots authenticity to a choreographed spectacle driven by wealthy donors, media manipulation, and political positioning. Plus segments on the brutal backlash CBS News head Bari Weiss faced after killing a 60 Minutes story on the Trump administration sending migrants to a notorious El Salvadoran prison, Donald Trump defending Bill Clinton against Epstein charges and TPUSA setting up a Charlie Kirk "death tent" at events for fans to take selfies.

It's another Best of 2025 episode on the Majority Report. On Today's program: Original air date: February 11, 2025 Gil Duran, journalist based in California, proprietor of the website The Nerd Reich, co-writer of the FrameLab newsletter, joins to discuss his recent piece in The Nerd Reich entitled "'Reboot' Revealed: Elon Musk's CEO-Dictator Playbook." https://x.com/gilduran76 https://www.thenerdreich.com/ https://www.theframelab.org/ https://www.thenerdreich.com/reboot-e... Gil Duran then joins, diving right into the concept of the Network State – an idea advanced by Big Tech's thought leader Curtis Yarvin and his billionaire buddies (Thiel, Andreessen, Musk, etc) that Tech CEOs should take advantage of the collapse of Nation States and democracy in favor of establishing corporate, CEO-run dictatorship, either by gutting and replacing existing governments or purchasing sovereign territories – as Duran unpacks his first introduction to this ideology with Silicon Valley's attempt to hijack San Francisco's political institutions, before parsing a little deeper through the recent, much more public discussions of this theory advanced by the likes of Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, and Curtis Yarvin. After expanding on how we are already seeing the blueprint for a Network State in action, with Trump serving as a figurehead to a Tech CEO's gutting of our administrative and democratic institutions in favor of sycophants and centralized power, Duran looks to how this came to be the active ideology of the GOP so quickly, unpacking how the collapse of the Biden campaign and naming of JD Vance as Trump's VP opened up an opportunity for the Big Tech to step in, starting with Elon's massive public $300m investment and culminating in Yarvin's Reboot conference in San Francisco last September, exploring the obvious parallels between Big Tech's dictator obsession and the GOP's white nationalism and parsing through their unified scapegoating of "woke" and "DEI" in the leadup to the election to the point of completely dominating both mainstream and social media (bolstered by the financial leverage and ownership Big Tech has over those institutions). Next, Gil, Sam, and Emma unpack the major challenges facing the Trump-Musk regime, as Trump is on his last legs with no other favorable alternative in sight while any failure to maintain control over both political and media institutions potentially meaning a complete upending of their "progress," not to mention the obvious lack of preparedness (or ability) for this institution to deal with any real public or institutional opposition – the latter of which seems to be particularly hopeless among Democratic leadership – wrapping up by emphasizing the genuine insecurity this regime faces in the face of public scrutiny and touching on the potential danger of Big Tech's goal of replacing the US Dollar with Bitcoin.
