Do you feel like you're missing the big picture regarding Iran? You aren't the only one. Filling in for Glenn, Justin Barclay shares a new poll revealing that the strikes on Iran are opposed by a small, but loud number of Republicans. Yet it's important to remember how close we came to not just losing President Trump in July 2024, but losing the country and maybe the world, and Justin explains why he isn't worried about the poll numbers. Justin also discusses how critical it is for Congress to pass the SAVE Act to ensure safe and free elections. In the state of Georgia, no stranger to some weird election shenanigans, a lawmaker looks to pass a state version of the bill. Greg Dolezal - a Georgia state senator and candidate for Lieutenant Governor - joins the program to discuss the bills he has introduced and how important the state of Georgia will be in determining the country's future. What is the bigger picture with Operation Epic Fury? Justin is joined by Tudor Dixon, host of the Tudor Dixon Podcast and former Michigan gubernatorial candidate, to discuss how the strikes affect the other CRINK countries just as much as they affect Iran, as well as the support of President Trump among Republicans being higher than that of other Presidents at this same point in their second term. Just how much better is living in Florida compared to Democrat-controlled cities and states? Scott Singer, the mayor of Boca Raton, joins to discuss his city's growth and how it can serve as a roadmap for the rest of the country. Justin is joined by Kyle Olson, the founder of The Midwesterner, to discuss Congress voting down the release of reports regarding the sexual misconduct and harassment by members of Congress and how obvious it is based on the results of the vote that the Democrats have never cared about the victims of Epstein or anyone else, they have always been using it as a political tool.

It's Tuesday, February 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed, and Adam McManus Hong Kong man critical of Chinese Communists sentenced to 20 years In a Hong Kong court, religious freedom and free speech advocate Jimmy Lai has been sentenced to twenty years in prison for publishing articles against the communist Chinese government. Lai is a British Citizen and an adherent of the Catholic Church. World journalists are marking the case as a worldwide setback for freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The United Kingdom home office has responded to the news. The Hong Kong Free Press reports that “British national status holders will be able to immigrate into the U.K. with their children. The office estimates that 26,000 people will arrive in the U.K. over the next five years.” Thousands of Tanzanians murdered Political upheaval, tyranny, and blood in the streets is the order of the day in Tanzania over the last few months.  Some reports have revealed the government of President Samia Suluhu Hassan killed thousands of Tanzanians. Hassan is a Muslim who was re-elected in a landslide victory last October, marred by accusations of massive fraud.  That's when the African country was plunged into chaos and rioting.  The bloodshed and terror has gone on for months, reports The Washington Stand. In an effort to conceal the atrocities taking place there, the government has reportedly shut down the internet. Tanzania is at least nominally Christian with a 57 percent Christian population and a 37 percent Muslim population, as the Muslim creep hits south Saharan Africa. Christian martyrdom grows with Muslim population in Nigeria Islamic influence is growing in Nigeria as well — a nation where 56 percent of the population is Muslim and 43 percent is Christian. This has resulted in the martyrdom of 50,000 Christians and the displacement of millions of Christians from their homeland.   Pray for our Christian brothers and sisters and the people of Tanzania, Nigeria, and Uganda.  Civilian killings continue in Nigeria Last Tuesday, almost 200 Nigerians were killed by gunmen in the communities of Woro and Katsina, reports the International Center for Transitional Justice. Woro is located in the western Nigerian state of Kwara, while Katsina is in the northern region of the country. Psalm 35:1 says, “Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.” War Department will no longer work with Harvard War Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the War Department will no longer send military officers to Harvard. He slammed the university for what he called its support of terrorism and the Chinese Communist Party.   Hegseth said, “Too many of our officers came back looking too much like Harvard — heads full of globalist and radical ideologies that do not improve our fighting ranks.” The War Department is set to re-evaluate all Ivy League school partnerships.  Virginia Democrats unveil gerrymandered congressional map Democrat lawmakers in Virginia put forward a new congressional map heading into the midterm elections this November. The Old Dominion state map heavily favors Democrats, giving them four extra seats, while the Republicans would lose four seats. This comes after the Supreme Court ruled that the new congressional map for California was valid, giving Democrats five additional seats. Virginia Democrats swept the last election, winning races for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General.  All told, gerrymandering in Virginia, California, and a few other states should yield the Democrats an additional 5 to 9 seats in Congress in 2026. And gerrymandering in Texas, North Carolina, and Missouri could yield the Republicans an additional 6 to 10 seats in the upcoming election. Connecticut works to expand abortion access Connecticut is launching a billboard campaign to promote abortion and death, reports LifeSiteNews. The campaign, sponsored by the Reproductive Equity Now Foundation, is advertising the state's commitment to make the killing of unborn children more accessible. Billboards will announce a state-provided pro-abortion hotline.  Connecticut Democrat Attorney General William Tong talked about his state's culture of death. He said, “Abortion is safe, legal and accessible here in Connecticut, and that's the way it's going to stay.”  But Proverbs 31:9 instructs us to “Open your mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.” GOP Rep chastises NBC & NFL for Bad Bunny's foul lyrics And finally, Sunday's Super Bowl half-time show turned into one big leftist political statement with Benito Ocasio, known as Bad Bunny, and a few other characters, who openly opposed President Trump's “America First” policies.   To his shame, the Puerto Rican singer sang a bunch of foul-mouthed, sexually-explicit lyrics in Spanish. Republican Congressman Randy Fine of Florida did not pull any punches in his X post. He wrote, “You can't say the f-word on live TV. Bad Bunny's disgusting halftime show was illegal. Had he said these lyrics -- and all of the other disgusting and pornographic filth -- in English on live TV, the broadcast would have been pulled down and the fines would have been enormous. “We are sending FCC Chairman Brendan Carr a letter calling for dramatic action, including fines and broadcast license reviews, against the NFL, NBC, and Bad Bunny. Lock them up.” You can send a short 2-4 sentence letter to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, urging him to levy these fines.  The address is Federal Communications Commission, 45 L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554. Kid Rock, on Turning Point USA's half-time show, pointed to Christ Meanwhile, Turning Point USA, founded by the late Charlie Kirk, simulcast their alternative “All-American Halftime Show” featuring Robert Ritchie known as Kid Rock. Some 20 to 30 million Americans tuned in, reports Fox News. Kid Rock threw in another verse to the hit song “Til You Can't.” Check out the lyrics. KID ROCK: “There's a book a'sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off . . . There's a man who died for all our sins a'hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus and He'll give you a second chance, till you can't.”  Other performers included Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.  War Secretary Pete Hegseth and House Speaker Mike Johnson both praised the Turning Point event, reports Politico.

Extra stories Trump administration provides lower costs on prescription drugs President Donald Trump unveiled Trump Rx, a plan that brings down medicine costs for American citizens. Trump Rx negotiates lower rates with drug companies, passing the savings directly to the consumer. The plan specifically helps those who pay for medications out of pocket. The president is calling on lawmakers to pass healthcare reform through Congress to further codify his agenda.   Senator launches caucus against Sharia Law Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama launched the new Sharia-Free America Caucus in the U.S. Congress, and has introduced a bill to ban Sharia Law in the United States. Tuberville said, “The strength of our country comes from one law applied equally to all. We cannot allow competing systems of governance to weaken that foundation.”

Mormon Women for Ethical Government have filed a motion to intervene in a federal lawsuit that challenges the state court's decisions around the new redistricting maps. We told you about the lawsuit last week, which was filed by Representatives Celeste Maloy and Burgess Owens -- as well as several local and county leaders from around the state -- against Utah's Lieutenant Governor. Mormon Women for Ethical Government and the League of Women Voters of Utah were plaintiffs in the original case over the maps and now, they want to be involved in this new federal suit. Co-executive director of MWEG Emma Petty Addams tells KSL NewsRadio that the group thinks they should be part of this case since it was their original case that played such a major role in getting the state to this point.

In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Ann Brensley, candidate for Lieutenant Governor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and Adrienne Simeone, founder of the Mama Bear Effect nonprofit and a mother of four. Ann Brensley is recognized for her focus on parental involvement and educational policy reform, emphasizing the importance of family values in governance. Adrienne Simeone, an advocate for children’s safety and parental rights, leads the Mama Bear Effect and works to expose issues affecting children in schools, drawing from personal experience and her research into child protection and sexual abuse prevention. Jennifer, Ann, and Adrienne engage in a thought-provoking discussion about the controversial surveys and curriculum introduced to Massachusetts public school students, with explicit questions on gender identity and sexuality. They address parental rights, transparency in education, and the role of schools in students’ personal development. The episode explores the growing concern about inappropriate content and lack of parental opt-in, how mental health issues in youth are addressed, and the importance of moral courage among parents advocating for their children’s safety. Controversial comments include critiques of sex education materials, frustration with limited parental control, and comparisons of certain school survey practices to child abuse.

Host Scott Hennen kicks off a high-stakes Monday exploring the "colossal battle of wills" in Minnesota. Following a tragic weekend shooting in Minneapolis, the show investigates the discovery of secret "Signal Gate" chat groups allegedly used by state officials to track federal agents. Scott is joined by former North Dakota Governor Ed Schaefer to discuss an "off-ramp" for the violence, while "Mr. Wonderful" Kevin O'Leary drops in to announce a major financial literacy initiative and fire back at "reckless media" following a legal victory. The episode also dives into "Moorhead's Minneapolis moment," with a deep dive into recent city council comments regarding ICE operations, and a look at the future of North Dakota's ag economy with state senator Paul Thomas. Standout Moments [00:07:30] A Way Out: The Schaefer Proposal Former Governor Ed Schaefer offers a strategic solution to the Minneapolis standoff: a "50% pullout" of federal agents in exchange for full state cooperation in identifying and removing the "worst of the worst" criminal offenders. [00:13:45] Trump Accounts:Kevin O'Leary's Vision "Mr. Wonderful" joins the show to discuss "Trump Accounts"—a transformational plan to seed every child at birth with $1,000 invested in the S&P 500. O'Leary argues this is the key to bipartisan financial literacy and long-term independence from government reliance. [00:16:15] Mr. Wonderful Unfiltered: Clearing the Name Kevin O'Leary addresses a recently dismissed lawsuit in North Dakota, slamming "bottom-feeder" lawyers and "reckless media" for shoddy journalism. He announces he is hiring an AI team to scrape every headline to ensure legal accountability for defamation. [00:19:45] The "Trump Truce" and Signal Gate Scott breaks down the news of a phone call between Governor Tim Walz and President Trump. He contrasts the "olive branch" with reports of an encrypted Signal network involving the Lieutenant Governor used to swarm law enforcement. [00:30:45] E15 and the Ag Crisis State Senator Paul Thomas recaps President Trump's recent trip to Iowa. They discuss why year-round E15 is a "win-win" that could consume 2 billion bushels of domestic corn oversupply and provide a lifeline to struggling North Dakota farmers. [00:35:10] Money, Markets, and Japan's Warning Landmark Gold's David Fisher explains why silver is up a staggering 56% this year. He draws a direct line between Japan's failing bond market and the "Sell America" trade currently pushing investors toward physical gold. [00:40:15] Moorhead: The New Minneapolis? The show closes with a critical look at the Moorhead City Council. Scott…

Host Scott Hennen opens a heavy Monday broadcast grappling with the "Ground Zero" of American civil unrest: Minneapolis. Following a tragic weekend involving a fatal altercation between federal agents and a local ICU nurse, the show explores the "battle of wills" between the Trump administration's ICE operations and Minnesota's political leadership. The episode features a rare, long-form conversation with former North Dakota Governor Ed Schaefer on finding a strategic "off-ramp" to the violence, a political autopsy of "Signal Gate" with John Hinderacker, and a technical law enforcement breakdown of the Saturday shooting with retired Minneapolis Police Lieutenant Bob Kroll. From secret encrypted chat groups to the breakdown of moral character in public discourse, Scott and his guests ask the one question no one seems able to answer: How does this end? Standout Moments [00:07:30] The MSNBC vs. Fox News Filter Former Governor Ed Schaefer discusses the "source of truth" crisis. He describes how the same tragic incident is framed as "Nazi thugs shooting a nurse" on one network and "justified force against a domestic terrorist" on another, leaving citizens with no credible source of facts. [00:13:15] A Proposal for Peace: The 50% Solution Governor Schaefer offers a potential way out: pulling half of the federal ICE agents out of Minnesota for six weeks in exchange for full cooperation from local sheriffs and the Minneapolis PD to target a specific list of the "worst of the worst" offenders. [00:19:45] The "Tough Guy Tim" Pivot Scott breaks news of a phone call between Governor Tim Walz and President Trump. After weeks of "get the hell out" rhetoric, Walz reportedly requested to work together, signaling a potential "white flag" as the state faces intense pressure from the business community and looming fraud investigations. [00:31:05] Signal Gate: The Encrypted Insurgency John Hinderacker from the Center of the American Experiment breaks down the discovery of secret Signal chat groups. He alleges that high-ranking Minnesota officials, including the Lieutenant Governor, are part of a coordinated effort to track federal agents' license plates and swarm arrest scenes. [00:35:10] The Midterm Calculation A deep dive into the political cost of the Minneapolis conflict. Hinderacker argues that while Trump isn't on the ballot in 2026, he is "always on the Democrats' ballot," and the current chaos is being used as a turnout tool to fire up the radical left base.

The Former senate majority leader has switched parties and is running on a "Golden ticket" with Steve HiltonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Candidates for statewide office in California have traditionally run separate campaigns. But after 16 years of Democrat one-party rule, unorthodox thinking is exactly what's needed to flip the state in 2026. That's why Steve has assembled an unprecedented “Golden Ticket” of candidates to run as a team in this year's election. Two members of the ticket – Lieutenant Governor candidate Gloria Romero and Attorney General candidate Michael Gates – join the podcast to explain exactly how they will work in tandem to save California. Steve also unveils his new report on the “Democrat Tax,” exposing the staggering cost of Democrat policies on everyday Californians. Plus, Susan Shelley breaks down a disastrous sales tax bill racing through the legislature and a potentially monumental Supreme Court ruling on election integrity.

State Senator Darrell Weaver joins the Undefeated: Defining Moments podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on leadership, resilience, and what it means to serve. With 28+ years in law enforcement—including nine years as Director of the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and a key role in launching Oklahoma's human trafficking enforcement efforts—Weaver reflects on the experiences that shaped his worldview, his faith, and his approach to public safety. Now a seven-year, undefeated state senator and candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Weaver explains what the Lieutenant Governor's role can be (beyond “next in line”), why promoting Oklahoma matters, and how real progress happens when you focus on results—not headlines. We also talk about Oklahoma's biggest challenges (education, healthcare, rural access, jobs), staying grounded amid political noise, handling negativity, and the personal defining moments that keep him humble and mission-focused. If you care about faith, family, public service, and the future of Oklahoma, this episode is for you.

As tensions escalate in Minnesota and Donald Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act, ICE's brutality continues. We are joined by the current Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota and candidate for the U.S. Senate, Peggy Flanagan, to discuss the crisis in her and Al's home state. Flanagan details the cover-up and lies surrounding the Renee Good investigation. The DOJ has withheld evidence and prohibited the state from investigating the case, while lying about how the officer who shot Good has “absolute immunity.” It is clear Trump, Kristi Noem, JD Vance, and the administration have no interest in justice.Flanagan also shares stories of the vibrant Somali community who have contributed so much to the state, despite the attempts to malign them. She also shares stories of talking to constituents around the state and how she's finding common ground with rural farmers over the cost of healthcare and tariffs. LEARN about and DONATE to Peggy's campaign: https://peggyflanagan.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORS:Save money on your wireless bill with Mint Mobile.

In this high-stakes Monday edition of What's On Your Mind, host Scott Hennen and Kevin Flynn peel back the layers of a rapidly evolving crisis in the Twin Cities. The episode centers on the intersection of massive taxpayer-funded fraud and the escalating tensions between federal ICE agents and professional agitators. The program features an on-the-ground update from Alpha News' Liz Collin regarding over $700 million in cash detected leaving the Minneapolis airport and the state-funded networks allegedly backing anti-ICE protests. We also hear from Cass County Sheriff Jesse Jahner on the delicate "split-second" reality of law enforcement's use of force and Dr. Scott Jensen, who breaks exclusive news regarding his campaign for Governor of Minnesota and the systemic culture of unaccountability in the state. Finally, Mike Howell of the Oversight Project explains why the "Minnesota model" of fraud is actually a feature of a broader national governing strategy. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:04:00] – The Fraud List Receipts Scott Hennen reads the chilling criminal records of "worst of the worst" aliens recently arrested in Minnesota—including convictions for child sodomy and homicide—challenging Governor Tim Walz's claim that ICE operations aren't making the state safer. [00:07:30] – Funding the Agitators Liz Collin of Alpha News reveals that several anti-ICE protest groups are not only highly organized with "live tracking apps" but are actually receiving state grants and state funding to operate in Minnesota. [00:11:45] – The $700 Million Suitcase Scandal A deep dive into the shocking reports from the TSA flagging nearly a billion dollars in declared cash leaving the Minneapolis airport in luggage bound for Somalia via Dubai over the last two years.

She joins Joel to speak after the tragic shooting of a Minnesota resident by an ICE officer. An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot and killed a Minneapolis driver on Wednesday during the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown on a major American city — a shooting that federal officials said was an act of self-defense but that the mayor described as reckless and unnecessary.

Recorded at the 15th Annual NewDEAL Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C., host Ryan Coonerty's conversation with Delaware Lieutenant Governor Kyle Gay digs into how she helped pass Delaware's equal rights amendment, her period-equity initiative, and her efforts to expand pathways to legal services. Gay talks about her time as Deputy Attorney General, representing clients in Delaware's business courts and practicing pro bono law for foster youth – experiences that now inform how she convenes communities, agencies, and decision-makers to change outcomes. The episode also explores how Gay partners with Governor and NewDEAL Alum Matt Meyer to get results, the impact of stories she's learned directly from constituents, and the responsibility she carries as a member of the Pardons Board. Tune in to learn about LG Gay's reflections on her journey into public office and why Delaware has become a place where more women can step into government leadership.

In Episode #332 of My Favorite Mistake, Mark Graban talks with Dr. Josh McConkey — emergency physician, Air Force Reserve Commander, combat-deployed medevac leader, and Pulitzer Prize–nominated author. Known as the “MacGyver Doc,” Josh has spent his career solving problems in high-pressure environments where you rarely get a second chance. Episode page with links, video, transcript, and more Josh shares the most painful mistake of his professional life: entering a business partnership without doing the proper due diligence. What followed was a cascade of red flags — Medicare violations, skimming, financial misconduct, and even a $3.4 million bribe offer he refused. The ordeal ultimately cost him nearly $5 million and forced him to rebuild his career and life with integrity front and center. In our discussion, Josh explains how this experience reshaped his understanding of leadership, accountability, and courage — especially in systems where incentives can push good people toward dangerous choices. He also reflects on two decades in emergency medicine, including the structural failures that helped fuel the opioid crisis and the pressures physicians faced to prescribe narcotics. Josh shares why he wrote Be the Weight Behind the Spear and his new children's leadership book The Heart of a Leader, and why he believes character development must start far earlier than most of us realize. We close with his decision to run for Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina in 2028 — a move grounded in service, accountability, and a desire to strengthen public leadership. This episode explores integrity, systemic failure, resilience, and the lessons we carry forward after a mistake that changes everything.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. It's Election Day! A high-energy Election Day edition packed with breaking political analysis and cultural commentary. Clay celebrates the release of his new book “Balls”, urging listeners to support conservative voices in publishing. The hour dives deep into the New York City mayoral race, spotlighting the shocking Donald Trump endorsement of Andrew Cuomo as a strategic move to block socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck debate whether this last-minute endorsement helps or hurts Cuomo, referencing insights from Stephen Miller and Van Jones, and warning that a split in the anti-Mamdani vote could hand victory to the far-left. The hosts analyze key battlegrounds in Virginia and New Jersey, stressing the importance of down-ballot races like Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor. They predict razor-thin margins and urge listeners nationwide to get out and vote. Discussion turns to Mamdani’s progressive promises—rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—which Cuomo calls “TikTok promises” with no legal basis. Clay and Buck argue these policies would worsen crime and quality of life, drawing parallels to failed corporate virtue-signaling like Starbucks’ bathroom policy and Bud Light’s marketing missteps. Get Some Balls! Clay promotes his new book “Balls”, endorsed by President Trump, and shares plans for charitable initiatives tied to free speech advocacy. Clay and Buck analyze the high-stakes contests in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City, emphasizing how Democrats will frame victories as a referendum on Donald Trump’s presidency, despite these being deep-blue strongholds. The hosts spotlight the New Jersey governor’s race, where Jack Ciattarelli’s chances hinge on massive Republican turnout to overcome Democrats’ early voting lead. They slam progressive policies like plastic bag bans, arguing they harm consumers and the environment, and highlight housing affordability crises caused by government mandates and rent control schemes. Our Data Guru Crunches the Early Numbers Data analyst Ryan Girdusky joins to break down record-breaking voter turnout, surging Democratic numbers in key counties, and the implications for future elections. The discussion expands to electricity price spikes, the impact of data centers, and Democrats’ strategy to nationalize local races around Trump. In New York City, the conversation centers on the mayoral showdown featuring Zohran Mamdani, whose socialist platform promises rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—policies Clay and Buck call “fairy tales” that would worsen crime and quality of life. They dissect Andrew Cuomo’s failure to give Republicans a reason to support him, despite Trump’s last-minute endorsement, and warn that a Mamdani victory could embolden far-left figures like AOC to push national socialism. The hour also covers Virginia’s gubernatorial race, where Winsome Sears struggles after running a single-issue campaign on transgender bathrooms, while down-ballot races for Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor remain competitive. Gonna Be Gavin and The Empire Strikes Back The hosts revisit the stakes in New York City’s mayoral race, the Virginia and New Jersey governor contests, and California’s Proposition 50, warning that Democrats will frame any wins as a repudiation of Donald Trump’s presidency despite these being deep-blue strongholds. Clay and Buck emphasize the importance of voting and highlight how Democrats use emotional manipulation—rather than real solutions—to distract from failures on crime, cost of living, and governance.
