We're diving headfirst into the recent State of the Union address from President Donald Trump, and trust us, it's a real doozy. Join Stephanie Miller as she slices and dices through the President's claims, shining a light on the head-scratchers and contradictions that make you go, "Wait, what?" From wild accusations of censorship to the never-ending saga of the Epstein files, she's unpacking the current political circus with a side of humor.

J Gulinello (https://www.healthreclamationproject.com/) has been rescued from the snow by the Mamdani civilian shoveling corp and so he joins us in studio to talk about a number of things, including: Project Artichoke getting some play in the media, and what rabbit holes that opens up for all who read it with an open mind; more than enough confirmation that Liberals are hopelessly triggered by Patriotism; and various stories that relate to breakthroughs (or breakdowns) in our state of health. Should be full of fantastic extras in between, and we will also be watching the State of the Union on the Flipside!

Over the last week or so the debate over Canada's immigration policy has come to the forefront.In Alberta, Premier Danielle Smith has promised to put a series of restrictive new immigration policies to a provincial referendum.In Ottawa, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has brought forward a motion that would compel the federal government to review and restrict the services available to asylum seekers.Critics have said both moves scapegoat immigrants.This is all happening at a time when polling shows that popular support for immigration is on the decline.Today's guest is someone who is uniquely positioned to talk about the proposed changes in immigration policy.Jason Kenney is the former United Conservative Party Premier of Alberta.Prior to that, Kenney spent nearly two decades in federal politics, and was a cabinet minister in Stephen Harper's Conservative party.He spent years working on the immigration and multiculturalism file and was widely credited for shifting the support of new Canadians from the Liberals to the Conservatives.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Prime Minister Mark Carney got a third floor crosser from the Conservatives, putting the Liberal seat count at 169 out of the 172 needed for a majority government-- exactly where it was on election day. But here's the kicker-- three byelections need to be called in seats the Liberals won just one year ago. Meaning Carney is on the verge of securing Canada's first majority in a decade. And just a month after Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre received a 87% approval rating from his party, what sorts of conversations does his caucus need to have with one less member? Host Maria Kestane speaks to Mickey Djuric, a journalist who covers Parliament Hill for POLITICO, to discuss what Mark Carney might do with a majority, and the potential for future floor crossers - and a federal election. We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes. You can find us:Through email at hello@thebigstorypodcast.ca Or @thebigstory.bsky.social on Bluesky

In this episode of Stephanie Miller's Happy Hour, the conversation takes a hilarious turn as Stephanie dives into the absurdity of Donald Trump's latest antics, including his invitation to the gold medal-winning women's hockey team to the State of the Union, which they promptly declined. With her signature wit, Stephanie dissects the implications of Trump's behavior, especially in light of the ongoing Epstein scandal, and how it reflects on his administration's accountability—or lack thereof.Joining Stephanie is the ever-charming Jody Hamilton, who adds her unique flair to the discussion as they explore the ridiculousness of political figures like Kash Patel partying on taxpayer dollars while the nation grapples with serious issues. Expect laughter, sharp commentary, and a deep dive into the political landscape as they tackle everything from the hypocrisy of the GOP to the upcoming State of the Union address. Plus, they share some love letters and hate tweets from listeners, making for an engaging and entertaining hour!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Both the Liberals and the Conservatives suggested a few weeks ago that they would try to find ways to work together to advance the issues facing Parliament. We've heard that kind of talk before and nothing has happened, but what about now?  A hint yesterday that maybe, just maybe, there could be progress.  Rob Russo of the Economist and Althia Raj of the Toronto Star  have their thoughts on this week's Reporter's Notebook.

In this episode of Stephanie Miller's Happy Hour, the conversation takes a deep dive into the murky waters of political scandal and accountability.

They explore the ramifications of Trump's rhetoric, the media's failure to hold him accountable, and the necessity for the Democratic Party to unify against the rising tide of fascism. Expect a lively discussion filled with sharp wit, passionate arguments, and a call to action for listeners to engage in the fight for democracy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberals welcomed a third Conservative floor crosser on Wednesday – Edmonton MP Matt Jeneroux. And with three by-elections coming up, two from Liberal strongholds, a Liberal majority is looking like a possibility. So a pretty seismic day on Parliament Hill. CBC's senior writer Aaron Wherry is here to talk through how this could all play out for the Liberals and for Pierre Poilievre's Conservative Party.

A special Sunday Strategy Session panel with Scott Reid, James Moore & Kathleen Monk; Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister Rachel Bendayan; The Front Bench panel with Sharan Kaur, Jamie Ellerton, Sebastian Skamski & Laura D’Angelo.

Conservative public safety critic Frank Caputo tells Power & Politics that the Conservative caucus is still behind leader Pierre Poilievre after a third floor-crossing to the Liberals, saying 'the mood for me is one of business as usual.' The Power Panel reacts. Then, asked what U.S. data showing its global trade deficit hitting a record high says about the effectiveness of U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs, economist Justin Wolfers responds with a laugh.

Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives have lost three MPs in three months to Mark Carney's Liberals. What's the plan to stop the bleeding?

Concerns over an immigration debate as the Liberals mull a new policy; Eleven killed in new US strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats; and in sport, Australia to play Mexico in May ahead of the football World Cup.

CBC's Rosemary Barton explains everything we know about Alberta Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux's decision to cross the floor to the Liberals, and rumours that more Conservatives could still follow. Then, former Conservative campaign manager Fred DeLorey and former Liberal campaign co-chair David Herle discuss the potential of a Liberal majority, which could now be completed with a win in a Quebec vote that DeLorey calls 'the most consequential byelection in Canadian history.'

Liberals are now using children as their political pawns, as far-left groups are radicalizing students to protest ICE. Hillary Clinton and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) embarrass themselves while speaking at the Munich Security Conference. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-New York) pushes legislation that would give Pride flags the same status and protections as the U.S. flag. Spokane, Washington, is making a push to defund the police and redirect the money to illegal immigrants and refugee families. ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1 Sponsors: ► PreBorn Donate securely at https://www.preborn.com/sara or dial #250, keyword BABY.

We Like Shooting - Ep 650 This episode of We Like Shooting is brought to you by: C&G Holsters (Code: WLSISLIFE) Midwest Industries (Code: WLSISLIFE) Primary Arms Night Fision (Code: WLSISLIFE) Blue Alpha Mitchell Defense (Code: WLS10) Bowers Group (Code: WLS) Swampfox Optics Guests: Matt Larosiere Patreon.com/fuddbusters Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171  New Public Notes Page: https://dngrsfrdm.com/public/ BULLET POINTS Nielsen Device Boosterless Silencer System The Nielsen Device is a boosterless silencer system designed for direct-thread mounting on pistols, eliminating the need for a traditional Nielsen booster or piston. It enables suppressed shooting with standard direct impingement pistol designs without the torque issues associated with boosters. The system uses a proprietary boosterless mount and boosterless booster assembly for reliable function on various pistol calibers. Mission First Tactical (MFT) New Pocket Holster Mission First Tactical (MFT) introduces a new pocket holster designed for concealed carry, featuring a durable construction with a sticky exterior for secure pocket retention. It accommodates micro-compact pistols and supports quick draw access while preventing printing. The holster is compatible with popular subcompact firearms like the Sig P365 and Glock 43. Luth-AR Globe Charging Handle The Luth-AR Globe Charging Handle is an AR-15 charging handle featuring a large spherical knob for ambidextrous operation, designed to reduce fatigue during extended shooting sessions. It is constructed from 7075 T6 aluminum with a hard coat anodized finish and weighs 1.6 ounces. The handle allows for easier manipulation in various conditions, including gloved use, and is compatible with standard AR-15 upper receivers. Note (Nick) GAFS https://gafshub.com/wls GUN FIGHTS No one stepped into the arena this week. WLS IS LIFESTYLE Note pocket carry Thin Line Weapons NFA Collection Thin Line Weapons offers a selection of NFA-regulated firearms including suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns. The page lists products such as the Huxwrx Flow 556K suppressor and various SBR configurations. All items comply with National Firearms Act requirements and are available for purchase with appropriate ATF approvals. GOING BALLISTIC ATF's ‘Engaged in the Business' Rule Mirrors Canada's Firearms Confiscation Approach (Shooting Wire Analysis) The article argues that the ATF's Final Rule on the Definition of “Engaged in the Business” Selling Firearms and Ammunition, effective May 20, 2024, effectively enables a backdoor gun grab in the US similar to Canada's 2020 Order in Council banning over 1,500 firearms models. It claims the rule reclassifies private sales and occasional transfers as requiring a Federal Firearms License (FFL), mirroring Canada's prohibition-then-buyback strategy. The piece warns this erodes Second Amendment rights by criminalizing common firearm transactions without due process. Utah HB 431: GOP Rep. Cheryl Acton Pushes to Ban Open Carry on College Campuses (Savage) Utah Republican Representative Cheryl Acton has introduced House Bill 431 to prohibit the open carry of firearms on the campuses of public colleges and universities in the state. The bill targets loaded firearms visible to others, aiming to enhance campus safety amid concerns over gun violence. It applies specifically to institutions under the Utah Board of Higher Education. Tumbler Ridge Shooting Highlights Gun Control Arguments (Bearing Arms Analysis) (Savage) The article analyzes a shooting incident in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, where a man used a restricted firearm to kill two people before being stopped by an armed civilian. It critiques how gun control advocates exploit such tragedies to push for stricter laws despite existing severe restrictions on firearms in Canada. The piece argues that the incident demonstrates the consistent pattern of gun control arguments relying on emotional appeals rather than evidence of effectiveness. Bearing Arms: Reason Transgender Gun Ban Proposal Won't Advance (Savage) The article discusses a proposed federal rule by the Biden administration to prohibit firearm purchases by individuals with gender transition-related medical diagnoses, such as gender dysphoria. It argues the rule faces significant legal and political hurdles, including likely injunctions from courts that have blocked similar ATF actions. The author asserts it lacks momentum and is destined to fail. Shooting News Weekly Critique of Evidence-Free Claims on Guns and Public Safety Conflict (Savage) The article criticizes a purported expert's assertion of a conflict between concealed carry and public safety, labeling it as evidence-free hackery. It argues that such claims lack empirical support and misrepresent data on concealed carry impacts. The piece defends concealed carry by highlighting the absence of credible evidence linking it to increased public safety risks. New Mexico House Bill 86 (HB 86) Sweeping Gun Control Measure Scheduled for Hearing (Savage) New Mexico's House Bill 86 proposes comprehensive gun control measures including bans on assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and ghost guns, along with red flag laws and restrictions on open carry. The bill is set for a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee on February 17, 2026. Sponsored by Rep. Rehm, it aims to address gun violence through multiple regulatory changes. REVIEWS Review: Jaqin Ta'Sox from Connecticut From; Jaqin Ta'Sox: Review I still think y'all are gay. But, regarding ep 647. I agree with Jerambay, 99%. I agree with Shawn as far as the narrative being twisted, disagree with most of his thoughts on the agents. Everyone who can legally carry should be able carry everywhere, full stop. The narrative of him carrying a 320 with spare mags to “cause chaos” is BS. The difference in Rittenhouse and the Minisota Nut, is in their choices. Rittenhouse didn't look for danger, danger found him, he ran away, then defended himself. Minisota nut, put himself in the middle of a wave of insanity. Had he gave the agents a buffer, he could've yelled and cursed all he wanted. Tragic, but justified.   Review: From Jeff E Comment only. Liberals are the biggest fucking idiots. They try to tell us how Trump is a dick tator, while they do everything in their power to dismantle the Constitution, specifically 2A. The very things that were setup to limit government, not to limit us. Sadly, they don't teach this in school anymore, (about Constitution limiting government). While like in Illinois they call our politicians “lawmakers”, when they should be called servants.
