Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber—ready to deliver an inclusive and diverse discussion on the most important topics of the day—giving you better analysis and insight that anyone else—shining a spotlight on the cockroaches of the swamp—and delivering truth and justice just when hope was starting to fade—   Here are the 3 Big Things you need to know to start today—   Number One— Florida Governor Ron DeSantis says no to Chinese buying land—while a Michigan Congressman moves to block the CCP too—   Number Two— Joe Biden's polling problems are getting worse—as he is losing black voters at an unprecedented rate—and it will spell disaster if it continues and he makes it to Election Night 2024—   Number Three— But well before Election Night 2024—Joe Biden will have to answer for all the failures he has overseen as President in the first part of his first term—   Right now he has the lowest—that's right the lowest approval ratings of any President at this point in their first term—make a note of that and notify the national press corps that seems to have missed that very big point—Joe Biden is far less popular than his predecessor Donald Trump—who according to the latest ABC News Washington Post poll would beat Biden by 6 points if the Election were held today—   And its not going to get any easier going forward—this week as we talked about already—is shaping up to be the worst of his Presidency—and I want you to think about this—Joe Biden just announced his re-election campaign—albeit by video and not live in person—BUT normally a sitting President announcing a fresh run—would get a bump in the polls—BUT instead Biden's numbers are collapsing—and it's because there is not a single issue or policy anyone can point to that would be considered a success—lets be clear—Joe Biden is a failing President—   And no matter how much the media tries to hold the line and pump up the Biden Presidency—the American people have seen enough—and they are pulling the plug—   And in about 48 hours its all going to get dramatically worse—because the border will no longer be defended by Title 42—it will be the Wild West with no real defense at all—   And while Nero fiddles—Rome is burning—the problem is that Biden is playing the part of Nero—and this time around he is not insane—but instead addled with dementia and incompetence—   Its become so bad—that even his media defenders are turning on him—hoping they can create enough distance not to get blamed themselves for this disaster—    For those that are seeing it up close every single day—the endo of Title 42 in a couple of days is nothing short of a complete catastrophe—that will leave a lot more than just border towns and states in ruin—   Yet, despite the overwhelming evidence that the border is not only NOT secure BUT is in fact basically wide open—the whole plan for the past two and a half years is to keep lying about the entire situation—   The numbers however don't lie—6.3 million illegals or more have streamed into America ever since a compromised Joe Biden stumbled into the White House—and treated the meltdown at our southern border as nothing more important than people moving from California to Texas—ZERO urgency to stop the invasion—   No matter how obvious it all is to everyone that the border is open and it's the fault of Joe Biden and his incompetent, not ready for Primetime imbeciles—those inside the West Wing just keep lying—At this point it really is all they have left—just keep lying and hoping people believe it—   And if you are going to go for the gold of gaslighting—I say go for it! If you are going to go for the big lie—I mean go all in—and put it all out there—
