How did this ever actually happen!?Peter Hotez Says He Refused to Debate RFK Jr Because ‘That's Not How We Do Science'Kaitlan Collins: "You said that people should not take your medical advice. That's your position?" RFK Jr: "Yeah, absolutely! People should not be taking medical advice from somebody who is not a physician.""Over 20 years, the percentage of seniors getting flu shots increased sharply from 15% to 65%. It stands to reason that flu deaths among the elderly should have taken a dramatic dip." "Instead, flu deaths among the elderly continue to climb." If flu shots work, how could that possibly be?“Two of President Trump's sons are hyper-aware of the problems with Operation Warp Speed and the shot...and a couple of us were invited to present this to President Trump as a candidate...but his Chief of Staff blocked us at that point in time…”

From May 3, 2024: Over the past several years, governors around the country from both political parties have used their respective National Guards for an increasingly unconventional array of domestic missions, ranging from teaching in public schools to regulating immigration at the southern border. To discuss how this trend may impact the National Guard—and our broader democracy, particularly in this pivotal election year—Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson recently sat down with a panel of senior former National Guard and Defense Department officials, including: General Craig McKinley, General Joseph Lengyel, Brigadier General Allyson Solomon, Major General Daryl Bohac, and former Assistant Secretary of Defense Dr. Paul Stockton. A video recording of the panel is available at https://www.brookings.edu/events/domestic-deployment-of-the-national-guard/.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Send us a textToday's drop is brought to you by… anger, caffeine, and one last damn slot for the Operator Training Summit. Jared's back with a full-frontal assault on the newest batch of DoD clownery: airframes that are being “upgraded” before they even exist, moving programs that still don't move anything, and bonus cuts that would make a finance troop cry in DFAS-approved tears.We've got everything from Russia testing nuclear air-to-air missiles to the Space Force getting 3% of the budget while being told to dominate orbit. The E-7 still isn't here, China is casually infiltrating American data systems, and the Collaborative Combat Aircraft program might bankrupt us before it ever flies. Meanwhile, the military's entire PCS and EFMP system is straight-up FUBAR'd, and CardoMax is the only thing holding the line.

John has extensive experience in both the Military and Civilian realms. He has 35 years in Active Duty, Reserve and National Guard service and 22 straight months in Iraq and Kuwait.  While deployed to OIF I and II, he served in various positions on the staffs of Lt Generals David McKiernan, Rick Sanchez, GEN George Casey, Under Secretary of the Navy (Admiral) Greg Slavonic, and Major General Erv Lessel.  His assignments included handling media during Saddam Hussein's arraignment, numerous press conferences, and serving as the Intelligence Liaison to the Interim Iraqi Government under MG Barb Fast.  He developed U.S. media strategy for addressing anti-coalition press and propaganda in Arab media during the battles of An Najaf and Fallujah, as well as many other special assignments in Baghdad.

Send us a textStrap in, kids—this episode is a buffet of DoD chaos, spicy geopolitical moves, and “WTF are we even doing?” headlines. Jared unleashes on everything from the sketchiest Air Force One replacement idea ever (thanks, Qatar) to Golden Dome missile pipe dreams and the absolute circus that is Cyber Command's latest identity crisis.We're also sending ICE to Marine bases, cutting 14% of Space Force civilians (brilliant), and relying on $26 million to keep Reserve pilots in the sky. Oh, and if you thought privatizing base lodging was gonna save anyone money—LOL, you're adorable.All this while the Air Force plays catch-up with drone integration, and Netflix somehow makes the Thunderbirds look cost-effective. Welcome to another day in the Pentagon's magical clown tent.

Gail Hosea's story is a powerful reminder that it's never too late for God to bring transformation. A lifelong Arizona resident, Gail is the sixth of eight children. While she holds on to some fond family memories, many are overshadowed by the deep pain of growing up with an abusive father. From a young age, Gail learned to hide behind emotional “masks,” concealing not only what was happening at home but also the turmoil within her own heart and mind. This is unfortunately something that she would carry into adulthood. At 18, Gail left home, and shortly afterward, her father passed away. His death brought a flood of complicated emotions, but it also became the beginning of her journey toward understanding forgiveness. At 21, she met her first husband while serving in the National Guard, and it was through attending church with him that Gail accepted Jesus as her Savior. Looking back, however, she realizes that key pieces were missing, particularly genuine discipleship and community. While she had reverence for God, her daily life wasn't centered around Him. Instead, she filled her life with idols—family, work, friends, and especially her children became her highest priorities. After her first marriage ended, God blessed her with a second husband, yet Gail continued living according to her own strength and understanding. For years and years, she leaned on self-reliance, still not finding true fulfillment. It wasn't until living in Prescott that things slowly began to change. A friend came alongside her in a deeply intentional way, modeling what a vibrant relationship with God could look like. When Gail and her husband moved back to the Valley, she says it felt like she finally lost the “box of masks” she had carried for so long. At 63, she truly began her walk with Jesus—and life has never been the same. Gail shares how God awakened her heart to His love and how, despite her past, she now feels like she is living in the best chapters of her life. Though she sometimes grieves the time that feels lost, she rests in the truth that with God, nothing is ever wasted. His redemption is real, His grace is abundant, and all it takes is one intentional step.Listen to Gail's discipleship journey on The Now Life podcast:The Disciple's Journey of Gail Hosea + Danya Works Part 1The Disciple's Journey of Gail Hosea + Danya Works Part 2Desert Springs will be having baptism services August 23rd + 24th!

In Episode 10 of Badlands Book Club, CannCon and Ashe in America tackle Chapters 17 and 18 of Government Gangsters by Kash Patel, delivering one of the most explosive episodes to date. The discussion centers on January 6th, from Kash's firsthand account inside the Pentagon to the legal gymnastics used to sustain the insurrection narrative. The hosts highlight Trump's pre-event authorization of up to 20,000 National Guard troops, Muriel Bowser's signed rejection of federal support, and how Pelosi's team refused help—all while later demanding tanks and blaming Trump for the breach. They dig into the Justice Manual's pivotal role in DOJ weaponization, the unconstitutional detainment of J6 protesters, and the shameless show trial tactics of the January 6th Committee. With analysis of political prisoners, Ray Epps, Raytheon-funded riots, and the AutoPen pardon scandal, this episode is a masterclass in exposing narrative warfare. Ashe and CannCon close with reflections on the broader implications for the America First movement and what's next in the unraveling of deep state protection schemes. A must-watch for anyone serious about justice, truth, and restoring constitutional accountability.

Fifty-five years after the terrible shooting at Kent State University, I spoke with Brian VanDeMark, a Professor of History at the US Naval Academy, about his new book, Kent State: An American Tragedy (Norton, 2024). Cutting through the reductive narratives of the shooting, VanDeMark offers a definitive history of the fatal clash between Vietnam War protestors and the National Guard, illuminating its causes, lasting consequences, and cautionary lessons for us all. On May 4, 1970, at Kent State University in Ohio, political fires that had been burning across America during the 1960s exploded. Antiwar protesters wearing bell-bottom jeans and long hair hurled taunts and rocks at another group of young Americans―National Guardsmen sporting gas masks and rifles. At half past noon, violence unfolded with chaotic speed, as guardsmen―many of whom had joined the Guard to escape the draft―opened fire on the students. Two reductive narratives ensued: one, that lethal state violence targeted Americans who spoke their minds; the other, that law enforcement gave troublemakers the comeuppance they deserved. For over fifty years, little middle ground has been found due to incomplete and sometimes contradictory evidence. Kent State meticulously re-creates the divided cultural landscape of America during the Vietnam War and heightened popular anxieties around the country. On college campuses, teach-ins, sit-down strikes, and demonstrations exposed the growing rift between the left and the right. Many students opposed the war as unnecessary and unjust and were uneasy over poor and working-class kids drafted and sent to Vietnam in their place. Some developed a hatred for the military, the police, and everything associated with authority, while others resolved to uphold law and order at any cost. Focusing on the thirteen victims of the Kent State shooting and a painstaking reconstruction of the days surrounding it, historian Brian VanDeMark draws on crucial new research and interviews―including, for the first time, the perspective of guardsmen who were there. The result is a complete reckoning with the tragedy that marked the end of the sixties. Dr. Andrew O. Pace is a historian of the US in the world who specializes in the moral fog of war. He is currently a DPAA Research Partner Fellow at the University of Southern Mississippi and a co-host of the Diplomatic History Channel on the New Books Network. He is also working on a book about the reversal in US grand strategy from victory at all costs in World War II to peace at any price in the Vietnam War.

Send us a textBuckle up, Ones Ready fam, because this episode is a gut-punch of raw truth and unrelenting grit. We're sitting down with Drew Outstanding (@drewoutstanding on X), a badass Army vet who went from slinging Applebee's two-for-20s to slaying in Iraq, only to get sucker-punched by the DOD's “safe and effective” COVID vaccine mandate. Spoiler alert: it wasn't safe, and it damn sure wasn't effective. One day after the jab, Drew was paralyzed, thrown into a medically induced coma, and diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome. He spent six months as a human vegetable in the VA, drowning in his own saliva while bureaucrats played CYA. But this guy? He's not just surviving—he's thriving, hitting extreme sports, speaking truth to power, and making sure the world never forgets the COVID clown show. With Peaches and Jared dropping their signature sarcasm, this episode is a middle finger to the machine and a battle cry for resilience. Don't miss it, unless you're cool with Big Pharma running your life.Key Takeaways:The Mandate Mess: Drew's story exposes the DOD's vaccine mandate as a reckless gamble that left him paralyzed and fighting for his life. “Safe and effective”? More like “shut up and comply.”Grit Over Everything: From a coma to scuba diving and sit-down skiing, Drew's recovery is proof that sheer will can flip the bird to even the darkest odds.No Apologies, No Accountability: The system that pushed the jab still hasn't owned up.

Ep. 371 Ken and Dave discuss POTUS in the Middle East, reinstating Rose, ousting Hogg, stupid things the National Guard does, 8647, consumer confidence, and the US credit rating.

Lou DiVizio opens the show with news from around the state. Then, we turn our attention to federal cuts made to AmeriCorps, the government agency that's trained generations of Americans to help others. Until recently, AmeriCorps employed thousands to help others statewide — from Taos to Ruidoso, and in cities and pueblos in between. Now, the federal agency is a shadow of what it once was, as most of its staff have been fired and millions of dollars in federal grants have been axed. Host Nash Jones speaks with U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., to discuss President Trump's gutting of AmeriCorps, and what he and the state are doing about it.The Albuquerque Sign Language Academy is one of several local programs hit hard by the AmeriCorps cuts. Jones recently sat down with Rafe Martinez, the academy's director, as well as former AmeriCorps board member Alvin Warren to discuss the federal cuts and their impact in communities across the state.State Sen. Jay Block, R-Rio Rancho, introduced a bill during this year's legislative session to create a program similar to the Department of Government Efficiency. Unlike DOGE, Block tells senior producer Lou DiVizio that his proposed program will not shrink the government workforce, nor target what the Trump administration calls “woke propaganda.” Host: Lou DiVizioSegments:U.S. Sen.

#407 In this episode of the Millionaire University Podcast, host Brien Gearin engages with Mike Oster, a Brigadier General, business owner, and author, to discuss the profound impact of maintaining a positive attitude, especially in relation to business building and personal growth. Oster shares his extensive military background, emphasizing lessons learned from leadership and the importance of a positive mindset. He unveils his journey from joining the National Guard to becoming a full-time military officer and later transitioning into entrepreneurship with ventures like Massage Envy franchises and real estate investments. Oster highlights the significance of reconditioning negative self-talk, setting action-oriented goals, and the necessity of preparation and adaptability in both military and entrepreneurial endeavors.

Fifty-five years after the terrible shooting at Kent State University, I spoke with Brian VanDeMark, a Professor of History at the US Naval Academy, about his new book, Kent State: An American Tragedy (Norton, 2024). Cutting through the reductive narratives of the shooting, VanDeMark offers a definitive history of the fatal clash between Vietnam War protestors and the National Guard, illuminating its causes, lasting consequences, and cautionary lessons for us all. On May 4, 1970, at Kent State University in Ohio, political fires that had been burning across America during the 1960s exploded. Antiwar protesters wearing bell-bottom jeans and long hair hurled taunts and rocks at another group of young Americans―National Guardsmen sporting gas masks and rifles. At half past noon, violence unfolded with chaotic speed, as guardsmen―many of whom had joined the Guard to escape the draft―opened fire on the students. Two reductive narratives ensued: one, that lethal state violence targeted Americans who spoke their minds; the other, that law enforcement gave troublemakers the comeuppance they deserved. For over fifty years, little middle ground has been found due to incomplete and sometimes contradictory evidence. Kent State meticulously re-creates the divided cultural landscape of America during the Vietnam War and heightened popular anxieties around the country. On college campuses, teach-ins, sit-down strikes, and demonstrations exposed the growing rift between the left and the right. Many students opposed the war as unnecessary and unjust and were uneasy over poor and working-class kids drafted and sent to Vietnam in their place. Some developed a hatred for the military, the police, and everything associated with authority, while others resolved to uphold law and order at any cost. Focusing on the thirteen victims of the Kent State shooting and a painstaking reconstruction of the days surrounding it, historian Brian VanDeMark draws on crucial new research and interviews―including, for the first time, the perspective of guardsmen who were there. The result is a complete reckoning with the tragedy that marked the end of the sixties. Dr. Andrew O. Pace is a historian of the US in the world who specializes in the moral fog of war. He is currently a DPAA Research Partner Fellow at the University of Southern Mississippi and a co-host of the Diplomatic History Channel on the New Books Network. He is also working on a book about the reversal in US grand strategy from victory at all costs in World War II to peace at any price in the Vietnam War.

Our episode is a little longer today because it is a bit of a hybrid thanks to a live audience show I did the night before. I use the first 45-50 minutes to bring my normal show to you but then transition to a replay of the live event hosted by Americans for Prosperity in NW Georgia. To start, there is great news of a cease fire with the Houthis and a re-opening of the Red Sea shipping lanes. We now have word the owner of the vehicle that was stopped by the Tennessee Highway Patrol with Kilmar Abrego Garcia driving and filled with people, says he paid Garcia several times to run people into the country from the border. Next, we go to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's testimony on the Hill yesterday. To illustrate the level of intellect inherent to the Democrat Party today, we turn to Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY). Then, for the added cherry on top, we turn to mad Maxine Waters (D-CA) regarding DOGE. This leads to a short segment on why DOGE needs to continue working daily to find and root out the fraud, waste, abuse and corruption. Then we shift to the live show from Tuesday, May 06, 2025 at AFP. We start with a short conversation with Jeff Thompson of AFP before turning to Tony West. West joined AFP in Georgia in 2015. He has served in various roles before being elevated to State Director in October of 2023. Prior to joining AFP, he spent three years as an analyst in the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget under Gov. Nathan Deal. Our keynote guest is Beverly Peyton, newly elected head of the GOP for Bartow County, GA. We talk a lot about her beginnings, growing up in Chicago and watching jobs and factories move away, leaving her and many of her friends on the edge of poverty. Realizing she was a critical point of turning down a bad path, she instead enlisted in the National Guard and it turned her life around and set her on a path of growth and success. She started to become more politically active in 2016 and is now a local leader in the Republican Party. After the interviews, I discuss the topic of immigration, due process and how the Legacy/mainstream media wants to take pieces of the 5th and 14th Amendments to try to make their points. I also spend some time on AI and what it will mean for everyone. We then close with a short Q&A session with the audience. Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

Four-Star Generals and Admirals are next in line to face DOGE. Pete Hegseth reportedly wants a 20% cut to the U.S. military. That includes active duty military brass and general officers in the National Guard. He's calling the move “Less Generals, more GIs.”The new Prime Minister of Canada will be at the White House today, working on a trade agreement with Trump. Already, some Trump allies, like Howard Lutnick, are calling Canada socialist and  casting doom on the meeting before it even starts. .We'll run it all past our friend and Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. There's a new organization called Nature is Non-partisan working to bring people of different political ideologies together in support of shared environmental ideals.

It's the 55th anniversary of the killings at Kent State University. In a special encore episode, we're reposting our Kent State episode from 2020.In this episode, we commemorate the anniversary of the tragic events of May 4th, 1970 at Kent State University, where agents of the state murdered 4 students and shot 9 others. Students, who'd been told the war was winding down in Vietnam, erupted in protest at campuses all over  America when Richard Nixon  announced the U.S. invasion of Cambodia on April 30th.  At Kent State, a working-class public school in Northeast  Ohio, protesting students and other burned down an ROTC building, a common target in the Vietnam  protest era, and Ohio Governor James Rhodes, vowing a violent response, mobilized the National Guard and  sent them to Kent.  For two days the students and Guard skirmished, with the paramilitaries hurling tear gas and intimidating students.  On May 4th, the Guard, unprovoked, started shooting into the crowd of students and shot 13, killing 4, from distances beyond 300 feet.  These were extrajudicial killings and a sure sign the state would murder anyone who challenged its interests. The war had come home! Scott and Bob, who's also a historian of the Vietnam War and the 1960s and has published extensively on those subjects, talk about the background to  the protests, the official, violent response, the aftermath at places  like Jackson State, where 2 more students were killed, and the larger context of anti-state protests and their meaning, and lessons.Links//Kent State Tribunal Organization, established by Laurel Krause, sister of one of the students assassinated that day (https://bit.ly/3w2spdR);interview with Alan Canfora, one of the survivors of the shootings (https://bit.ly/3OUyjGq);The Kent State May 4th Poetry Collection; Denise Levertov, “The Day the Audience Walked Out on Me, and Why” (https://bit.ly/3kIVyFv);Governor Rhodes press conference, May 3 (https://bit.ly/37cIk0R);Robert Buzzanco, Vietnam and the Transformation  of American Life (https://bit.ly/3kB21ST).https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcastCheck out our new website: https://greenandredpodcast.org/Support//+Become a recurring donor at  https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast+Or make a one time donation here: https://bit.ly/DonateGandRFollow Green and Red//Donate to Green and Red Podcast//This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

Guest: William “Red” Redheffer, Former Army Ranger, National Guard Elite Special Operations Detachment, Philadelphia SWAT Officer Summary: In this gripping episode, hosts Robert Gowin and Sean Jarvis sit down with William “Red” Redheffer, a decorated former Army Ranger now serving in the National Guard's elite special operations detachment and is a SWAT officer in the Philadelphia area. “Red” shares his extraordinary life story, including two near-death experiences that left him clinically dead—once during a head-on vehicle accident and again when a railroad stake impaled his head. With raw honesty, he recounts the surreal moments of "crossing over" and the profound insights that reshaped his worldview. “Red” delves into his philosophy of resilience, forged through years of combat and high-pressure law enforcement work. He introduces his unique mantra: "Every day, kill your clone." This powerful metaphor urges listeners to shed yesterday's limitations, habits, and fears to embrace each day as a fresh opportunity for growth and purpose. He explains how this mindset has guided him through trauma, loss, and the relentless demands of his dual roles in the military and police force. The episode also explores “Red's” current mission to mentor young soldiers and officers, emphasizing mental toughness, adaptability, and the importance of living with intention. His advice is both practical and philosophical, offering listeners a roadmap to confront their own challenges with courage. Key Moments: Red's vivid recounting of his first "death" from a head-on collision, including a moment of peace he can't explain. The chaotic SWAT raid where he helped a veteran struggling with PTSD and a heartfelt message to veterans and first responders struggling with PTSD. A freak accident where a railroad spike impaled his head that led to his second brush with death and its lasting impact on him and his family. Practical tips for "killing your clone," including daily rituals to reset and refocus. ___________ Please leave us a review on Apple/Spotify Podcasts: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mentors-for-military-podcast/id1072421783 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3w4RiZBxBS8EDy6cuOlbUl #mentors4mil  #mentorsformilitary #ArmyRanger #JSOC Mentors4mil Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Mentors4mil Patreon Support: https://www.patreon.com/join/Mentors4mil  Intro music "Long Way Down" by Silence & Light is used with permission.

A bipartisan group of governors is sounding the alarm about Space Force leadership “aggressively pushing a plan” to move Air National Guard units to the Space Force without states' consent.  While the move has not occurred, there are indications that the units will be shifted to the Space Force by the end of the year. Colorado Governor Jared Polis and Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt said that there has been “no formal notification to, coordination with, or consent obtained from the impacted states.” The statement revives a Biden-era fight over the future of Air National Guard space units and whether they can be moved to the active-duty Space Force without obtaining approval from state governors as required by law.

In today's world, the battlefield extends far beyond war zones—it's embedded in our tech stacks, supply chains, and airspace security systems. So who better to solve these modern challenges than those who've served on the front lines?Recorded live at the third annual American Dynamism Summit in Washington D.C., this episode features a16z's Matt Shortal—a veteran himself—moderating a conversation with three founders who transitioned from military service to building cutting-edge defense startups:John Doyle, founder & CEO of Cape David Tuttle, cofounder & CEO of Rune Grant Jordan, founder & CEO of SkySafeThe panel covers their journeys from service to startups, how their time in uniform shaped what they chose to build, and whether veterans should go straight into entrepreneurship—or stop first at places like Palantir or Anduril. They also discuss how Ukraine changed the game, how dual-use tech is shifting the innovation landscape, and how to instill trust and culture in mission-driven companies.The big question: how do we win the next war—the asymmetric, fast-moving, tech-enabled kind—and build the industrial base we need to do it? Resources: See more from The American Dynamism Summit 2025: www. a16z.com/american-dynamism-summitFind John of  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-doyle-48633227/Find David on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidtuttle1/Find Grant on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grantjordansd/Find Matt on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-shortal/ Stay Updated: Let us know what you think: https://ratethispodcast.com/a16zFind a16z on Twitter: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zSubscribe on your favorite podcast app: https://a16z.simplecast.com/Follow our host: https://twitter.com/stephsmithioPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

From claims of mass voter fraud and secret Social Security numbers to cartel influence and National Guard deployments, this segment frames immigration not as a policy debate—but as the front line of a political war. Buckle up for a no-holds-barred take on what's being called the most critical battle for America's future.

"If it's a true call from God to become a priest, you're not gonna be able to shake it. He's gonna keep coming for you." Fr. David Kidd, Director of Diocesan Priestly Vocations for the Diocese of Toledo, joins Men of the Hearts hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee to talk about his journey to the priesthood. Looking back, he realizes God started preparing him for the priesthood when he was an altar server in childhood, but his path detoured through college, dating, and a deployment overseas before finally leading him to the doorstep of the Pontifical College Josephinum seminary in Columbus. He shares how five years studying in Rome opened his eyes to the universality and longevity of our faith and offers his advice to men discerning the call to priesthood in their own lives.(0:27) Hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee introduce their guest this month, Fr. David Kidd, Director of Diocesan Priestly Vocations for the Diocese of Toledo. Fr. Drew kicks off the episode by sharing that his parish recently finished The Rescue Project with the community's young adults, spending a few weeks in small groups “unpacking the Lordship of Jesus.” Fr. David then shares some recent blessings in his life. (10:52) Fr. Drew shares some recent events at his parish, including Lenten penance services, Alpha gatherings, and Archbishop Edward J. Weisenburger's installation as Archbishop of Detroit. Fr. Craig hosted a discernment weekend attended by men from the Archdiocese of Detroit as well as other nearby dioceses, while also working on an art project he plans to submit to Divine Child High School's upcoming art show.(16:45) Fr. Craig asks for Fr. David's vocation story. Fr. David is the oldest of four children and grew up in Lima, Ohio. He reflects on his experience as an altar server, through which he says God began preparing him for the life of a priest. He first considered the priesthood in senior year of high school, after visiting the Pontifical College Josephinum seminary in Columbus. He became more serious about his discernment in college, shortly before being deployed to Kuwait with the National Guard. (27:49) While in Kuwait, Fr. David regularly attended Mass on base, where a chaplain sensed his possible vocation to the priesthood. While home on R&R, Fr. David finally met with the vocations director and submitted an application to seminary just two days before returning overseas. (37:56) After Fr. David received his Bachelor's in Philosophy in Columbus, his bishop invited him to further his studies at the Pontifical North American College in Rome, Italy. He recalls getting a strong sense of the universal Church sharing classes with students from all over the world. He also remembers being in awe visiting churches older than the United States: “People have been living and dying for this faith for a long time.” (50:05) While Fr. David never seriously doubted his vocation during his five years in Rome, he did struggle being away from family without regular visits for so long. This challenge helped him develop his relationship with God, trusting in Him and in His plan—leaning on God rather than on his own abilities. He then offers his advice to men discerning the priesthood: take small steps in your discernment, like developing good prayer habits, getting a spiritual director, visiting a seminary, going on retreat, reading spiritual books, and journaling. “All those little steps along the way bring clarity.”(57:48) Fr. Craig thanks Fr. David for joining, and Fr. David closes the episode with a prayer.

We're beginning the third month of this term, and budget reconciliation remains aimless and chaotic, with no coherent vision of how to spend the political capital. Once again, I offer Trump advice on how to spend the capital on transformational economic policy. Likewise, it is a simple fact that mass deportations are not happening.  Trump must either stand up to the courts or demand that Congress pass a bill explicitly greenlighting all deportations. I also discuss some other authorities Trump can use, as well as the need to harness maritime removals and call up the National Guard. Finally, I address medical freedom to show how nothing is changing regarding COVID authorities.  The choice for CDC director will be very telling. The moral of the story is that when we demand a course correction from Trump, he listens, but if we continue with a form of obsequious complacency, we will wind up with nothing.
