In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we focus on a pivotal hearing addressing veterans' job opportunities in the emerging technology sector, particularly in artificial intelligence. Congressman Abe Hamadeh from Arizona, a veteran himself, joins us to discuss his groundbreaking legislation, the Improving Emerging Tech Opportunities for Veterans Act. This initiative aims to connect highly skilled veterans with high-tech jobs, especially as Arizona positions itself as a hub for semiconductor manufacturing and AI innovation.Congressman Hamadeh emphasizes the importance of leveraging the unique skills and discipline of veterans to fill workforce gaps in the tech industry, particularly as foreign investments flood into the U.S. He highlights partnerships with companies like TSMC that are committed to veteran outreach and hiring. This legislation represents a significant step toward ensuring that American veterans are not only honored but also gainfully employed in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.We also delve into the recent developments surrounding President Trump's negotiations regarding Greenland and NATO. The Congressman shares insights on the strategic importance of Greenland for U.S. military operations and how these discussions could bolster national security while countering adversarial influences in the Arctic. With a focus on protecting Western civilization, Hamade reflects on the potential benefits of these agreements for both the U.S. and its allies.Next, we dive deep into President Trump's recent signing of the Charter for the Board of Peace at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Joining us is Claire Lopez, a former CIA operations officer and national security expert, who provides valuable insights on the implications of this new charter for global order and U.S. strategy in the Arctic. Lopez discusses the enhanced U.S. control over strategic sites in Greenland and the significance of these developments in countering the assertive actions of China and Russia in the region.We also explore the broader geopolitical landscape, including the situation in Venezuela. Lopez highlights how the country has become a focal point for adversaries such as Iran and China, and how Trump's foreign policy aims to assert U.S. primacy in the Western Hemisphere. She addresses the ongoing challenges posed by the Maduro regime and the presence of foreign influence in Venezuela, emphasizing the need for a robust U.S. response.Finally, Tina Desovich, co-founder of Moms for Liberty, shares the importance of instilling true American history in our children.

Are the Texans an attractive destination for free agents — especially on the offensive side of the ball? ITL debates how appealing Houston really is right now, what matters most to players, and whether the Texans' current situation helps or hurts their chances of landing top talent. Plus, Lunch-Time Confessions gets spicy as Lopez admits he's ashamed of something Reggie did, and the hour wraps with OG's Buy or Sell as the crew decides whether they're buying what people around sports are selling.

The Spurs picked up a win thanks to strong guard play, smart offensive execution, and a key defensive adjustment — and Lopez explains why he's confident the Rockets could realistically do at least one of those same things to help themselves moving forward. Plus, ITL tackles a topic Texans fans may not want to think about yet: is it really that crazy to consider the Texans drafting a quarterback at some point, or is that just smart business in today's NFL? The hour wraps with today's QOTD: When have you caused a scene or a public stir?

The show opens with a breakdown of how the Spurs picked up a win using strong guard play, smart offense, and key defensive adjustments — and why Lopez believes the Rockets could realistically adopt parts of that same blueprint. ITL also tackles a forward-looking Texans topic, debating whether drafting a quarterback down the road is crazy or simply smart business in today's NFL, before wrapping the hour with a fun QOTD about causing a public scene. Around The NFL hits the latest coaching carousel drama as Todd Monken is hired as head coach of the Browns, sparking locker room reaction, while Klint Kubiak earns a second interview with the Raiders. The crew then zooms in on the Rockets and asks the tough question: What is the real goal of this season at this point? The hour wraps with What's Popping in sports and entertainment. Hour three focuses on the Texans' appeal as a free-agent destination, especially on the offensive side of the ball, as ITL debates whether Houston is truly attractive to top talent right now. Lunch-Time Confessions brings some spice with Lopez admitting he's ashamed of something Reggie did, and the crew closes the hour with OG's Buy or Sell, deciding whether they're buying what people around sports are selling. The show wraps with ITL reacting to The Athletic's NFL player poll, breaking down what players around the league really think and what stood out most for the Texans and the AFC. Figgy's Mixtape closes things out with chaos and laughs, including a jingle-writing craze after a woman wins $2 million from Dr Pepper, a wild Tyrann Mathieu drug test story, and more off-the-wall moments.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for January 28, 2026. 0:30 A bizarre confrontation at Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Minnesota town hall is raising more questions than answers. After a man allegedly sprayed her with what authorities later suggested may have been apple cider vinegar, we dig into why the incident doesn’t pass the smell test. Why wasn’t the room cleared? Why wasn’t medical attention sought immediately? And why would someone risk federal prison over vinegar in the first place? We explore security protocols for members of Congress, the reality of chemical threats, and whether this episode reflects a broader pattern of manufactured victimhood in progressive politics. Comparing the moment to past political hoaxes, we ask the uncomfortable question: was this a genuine attack—or something staged for grievance politics and media headlines? 9:30 Plus we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The Federal Reserve Kept Interest rates steady this week.This follows three consecutive cuts made by the Fed since September.The interest rate remains between 3.5 an 3.75%. The State of Virginia's redistricting effort has been blocked. The Department of Education says both California and Minnesota have violated Title IX of the Civil Rights Act by insisting that boys and men are allowed to play sports on girls and women's teams. 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 California’s rebuilding failure after the Los Angeles wildfires is taking center stage as a stunning display of government incompetence. With only about 20 homes rebuilt out of thousands destroyed, we just have to ask: what is California doing? Layers of state, county, and city regulations have turned recovery into a bureaucratic nightmare—and President Trump stepped in with an executive order to fast-track rebuilding in Pacific Palisades and Eaton Canyon. It just goes to show the contrast between a once-functional, get-things-done America and today’s regulatory gridlock. 16:00 Are charismatic parents a hidden superpower? American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle a viral idea comparing social confidence to growing up bilingual—something you absorb naturally when it’s modeled every day at home. From outgoing moms and thoughtful, confident dads to shy kids learning the ropes at birthday parties and family gatherings, the conversation explores how social skills are taught, corrected, and reinforced over time. The Mamas share real-life parenting stories and discuss the balance between confidence and introversion. It’s a warm, honest discussion about raising socially capable kids in a world where confidence isn’t taught in a classroom—but learned at home. 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 Jeff Bezos didn’t buy The Washington Post as a passion project—and we break down why the free market is now forcing a reckoning. As the paper sheds hundreds of jobs amid ongoing financial losses, the real problem isn’t politics, it’s trust. From Russiagate headlines that never panned out to COVID-era reporting that proved wrong, Americans stopped subscribing when legacy media stopped telling the truth and started talking down to their audience. We take a look at media credibility, collapsing subscriptions, advertiser flight, and why the Washington Post—and mainstream media as a whole—must adapt or disappear if it wants to survive in today’s news economy. 26:00 Where you get your news may matter more than what you think. We break down new polling on President Trump’s immigration and deportation policies—and the results reveal a nation split almost perfectly down the middle. But the real story isn’t just the numbers, it’s how media consumption shapes belief. Voters who think deportations have gone “too far” overwhelmingly rely on legacy broadcast networks, while those who want stronger enforcement are turning to cable news, X (formerly Twitter), talk radio, and alternative media. We dive into media trust, information bubbles, news sampling versus deep analysis, and whether everyday Americans even have the time to stay informed. It’s a sharp look at how media choice, modern attention spans, and economic reality are redefining how Americans understand politics and vote. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 President Trump is drawing a hard red line with Iran—and it’s not bluster, it’s peace through strength in action. As Trump warns Tehran that time is running out to strike a nuclear deal or face consequences far worse than last year’s strike, we explain why Iran doesn’t fear UN resolutions or European statements—but does fear American military power. From carrier strike groups in motion to the lasting impact of taking out Qasem Soleimani, the discussion breaks down why deterrence works, why Iran’s regime is more fragile than it appears, and why past predictions of “World War III” fell flat. It’s a clear-eyed look at U.S. foreign policy, Iran nuclear negotiations, and why strength—not rhetoric—may be the key to avoiding war. 35:30 As An Inconvenient Truth turns 20, we take a hard look back at Al Gore’s most famous climate change predictions—and ask a blunt question: what actually came true? From melting glaciers and disappearing snowcaps to catastrophic hurricane forecasts, we walk through claim after claim that never materialized. The real “inconvenient truth” isn’t environmental collapse, but a pattern of missed deadlines, moving goalposts, and policies that demand more government power today for crises that never arrive. It’s a sharp reassessment of climate alarmism, media influence, and why two decades of failed predictions are reshaping public skepticism about climate change narratives. 39:30 A major Supreme Court case has gun control activists on edge. During oral arguments in Wohlford v. Lopez, several justices signaled serious skepticism of Hawaii’s private property carry ban, a law that effectively turns the Second Amendment into a privilege instead of a right. We break down how Hawaii’s policy flips constitutional carry on its head, why Chief Justice John Roberts compared it to free speech under the First Amendment, and what this moment could mean for the future of gun rights nationwide. If the Court is done treating the Second Amendment like an afterthought, this case could be a game changer.

The look back over our five years of drama, humor, reason, and illogic continues, as perhaps the most notorious opinion of the five year period - the Trump immunity case - reappears in a clip, along with a revisit with Justice Breyer.  Meanwhile, the oral argument in Wolford v. Lopez did, in fact, prompt the Professors Amar to write in SCOTUSblog.com, and we go even further here, with clips from that oral argument and answers to the justices that didn't find their way into the record, but now, hopefully, enter the public discourse.  CLE credit is available as usual for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.

Seth and Sean discuss Bill Belichick not getting enough votes to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the politics surrounding it, look at which of the top 50 free agents are relevant to the Texans this offseason, a snub to the baseball Hall of Fame that Lopez had a part in, and what Reggie and Lopez's question of the day is.

Free agent rumors are starting to swirl across the NFL, and ITL breaks down a clear trend tied to the Texans — and asks the big question: do you actually like what you're seeing so far? The crew debates what it could mean for Houston's offseason approach and whether it signals real change or more of the same. Plus, Lunch-Time Confessions tackles the growing hate for non-breaking breaking news, before Judge John Lopez steps into court to rule on Clemson's Dabo Swinney alleging tampering by Ole

I never thought I'd be glued to my screen watching the Supreme Court like it's the Super Bowl, but here we are in late January 2026, and President Donald Trump's legal battles are heating up faster than a Florida summer. Just this week, on January 21, the justices heard arguments in Trump, President of the United States v. Cook, a case straight out of the Oval Office power playbook. According to the Supreme Court's own monthly argument calendar, it was one of the key sessions testing how far Trump can push executive authority. Picture this: Trump's team arguing he can fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over allegations of mortgage fraud, no full hearing required. News4JAX reports the Court seemed skeptical during those arguments, with justices across the spectrum questioning whether the president can boot independent agency leaders on a whim like that.Rewind a bit to the shadow docket frenzy of 2025—that's the Supreme Court's fast-track emergency rulings without full debates or explanations. Scotusblog details how Trump's administration leaned on it heavily, winning over 80% of the time from the conservative majority. They greenlit canceling foreign aid and health funding, firing independent agency heads, even immigration questioning based on appearance or language, and requiring passports to match biological sex. But the Court drew a line at Trump's plan to deploy the National Guard to Chicago, blocking it in a December 23 decision, and handled Trump v. Illinois on September 8 over immigration detentions in Los Angeles. These shadow moves shaped policy quietly, but now, with Trump's approval dipping to 42% by late 2025 per News4JAX polls, the big full hearings are here.Coming down the pike: birthright citizenship challenges under the 14th Amendment—can Trump end automatic U.S. citizenship for anyone born here? Sweeping global tariffs without Congress's okay, testing presidential trade power. And that Fed firing case, potentially gutting the Federal Reserve's independence. Chief Justice John Roberts wrapped 2025 with a year-end report hammering home judicial independence, calling courts a counter-majoritarian check against popular whims. He sidestepped politics, focusing on history, but experts like Constitutional Law Professor Rod Sullivan on News4JAX's Politics & Power say the Court's timing is no accident—Trump's weaker politically, so justices might finally clip his wings.Meanwhile, down in Congress, the House Judiciary Committee grilled former Special Counsel Jack Smith on January 23 about Trump's alleged criminal actions, from conspiring to overturn the 2020 election to mishandling classified documents. Representative Steve Cohen's newsletter recounts Smith facing questions on Trump's witness intimidation tactics, with Cohen praising him as a great American standing firm. Lawfare's Trump Administration Litigation Tracker notes a dismissal on January 14 of a case over dismantling the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, mooted out. And don't sleep on criminal law sidelines: Scotusblog's mid-term update flags nine new cases, like Wolford v. Lopez argued January 20 on Second Amendment rights, or geofence warrants in United States v. Chatrie testing Fourth Amendment limits.As California's Republicans begged the Court on January 22 to block a new 2026 midterm election map, per Scotusblog, it feels like every corner of the judiciary is tangled in Trump's orbit. These rulings could redefine presidential power, from citizenship in cities like New York to trade hitting ports in Miami. Chief Justice Roberts' quiet defense of court independence is about to face its ultimate stress test—will the justices stand firm, or bend to the political gale?Thanks for tuning in, listeners.

This week, we're taking a deep dive into the Supreme Court oral arguments in Wolford v. Lopez. To do that, we have one of the people who was directly involved: Wolford's lawyer, Alan Beck. He joined the show to give us a preview of the case before oral arguments. Now, he's back to give us a rundown of how everything went from his perspective. Beck said being in the room was an entirely different experience from listening to arguments online or reading a transcript. He said the justices were more expressive than many of the other federal judges he's argued in front of before, and it gave him extra insight into how arguments were going. He noted that at different points some of them even became visibly exasperated with some of what his opponent was saying, especially during the portion where they discussed a Black Code as evidence for Hawaii's modern gun-carry restriction. Beck said he believes a majority of the justices favored his position. He said Justice Amy Coney Barrett appeared skeptical of his view about Second Amendment rights on private property, but he believes she came to understand his position after a long back-and-forth. Meanwhile, he said he thought his argument about the incompatibility of Hawaii's restrictions with American history won over a lot of the justices, perhaps even Justice Elana Kagan.Special Guest: Alan Beck.

This episode dives deep into one of boxing's most fascinating hypothetical matchups: Teofimo Lopez vs Shakur Stevenson. Power and swagger versus precision and control — we break down how the styles clash, where the fight is won and lost, and what each man would need to do to impose his game over 12 rounds. We also turn our attention to the supporting action, starting with Carlos Adames vs Austin Williams, a middleweight matchup with real implications. Is Adames' pressure and strength enough to overwhelm, or can Williams' athleticism and timing make the statement win he's been chasing? Finally, we assess Josh Kelly vs Bakhram Murtazaliev, looking at what this fight tells us about Kelly's ceiling and whether Murtazaliev's physicality poses the kind of test that answers lingering questions.
