While chaos dominates the headlines—from Minneapolis to the Middle East—one of the biggest economic stories of the decade is being quietly ignored. America is now growing faster than China, and China has just lost up to 70% of its oil supply. The Atlanta Fed reports 5.5% GDP growth, unemployment is down, wages are surging, inflation is falling, and productivity is exploding—all signs of a Reagan-level economic boom. Yet legacy media barely whispers about it, and the Trump administration's messaging isn't cutting through the noise. In this episode, Tara breaks down what these numbers actually mean, why productivity—not fake GDP—is the real measure of prosperity, and how Trump's energy strategy just kneecapped China's economy. This isn't paper growth. This is real wealth creation.
From unrest in Minneapolis to a historic economic surge, today's episode connects dots the media won't. As President Trump signals potential use of the Insurrection Act, we examine how depolicing, street enforcement, and political hesitation have reshaped public safety—and what happens when the rule of law disappears. Then, buried beneath the chaos, a stunning turnaround: America is growing faster than China, GDP is surging at 5.5%, wages are rising faster than inflation, and productivity is hitting levels not seen since Reagan. Add in a massive geopolitical shock—China losing up to 70% of its oil supply—and the stakes couldn't be higher. We also break down the fight in Congress over Obamacare subsidies, alleged large-scale fraud, Trump's proposed overhaul to put money directly in patients' hands, and what it could mean for healthcare costs. Finally, a local flashpoint: South Carolina's measles outbreak, vaccine policy, exemptions, and a growing debate parents and lawmakers can't avoid. This is about power—who has it, who enforces it, and who pays the price.

Marc kicks off Tuesday fired up about illegal immigration and government hypocrisy. He blasts states that hand out driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants and spotlights Missouri's clash over proposed red flag laws. Kim St. Onge's “Kim on a Whim” slams Illinois for releasing violent illegal offenders, while Marc ridicules Jasmine Crockett's Texas Senate bid and wraps the hour by echoing Glenn Beck's frustration over corruption with no accountability.
In her “Kim on a Whim” segment, Kim St. Onge unloads on Illinois' sanctuary policies after ICE revealed the state released nearly 1,800 criminal illegal aliens—some convicted of homicide, assault, and sexual offenses—despite active detainers. She slams Gov. J.B. Pritzker for protecting noncitizens over public safety, while Marc adds that such policies insult legal immigrants like Gene Simmons, who followed the law. Together, they argue Illinois' leadership has abandoned accountability and jeopardized its own citizens. #KimOnAWhim #SanctuaryState #IllinoisPolitics #IllegalImmigration #PublicSafety
The Rev. Charles St. Onge gives today's sermonette based on 2 Peter 1:1-21. Hear a guest pastor give a short sermonette based on the day's Daily Lectionary New Testament text during Morning and Evening Prayer. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
In this “Kim on a Whim,” Kim St. Onge unpacks the escalating feud between Candace Owens and Turning Point USA following Charlie Kirk's assassination. TPUSA has invited Owens to a live-streamed confrontation to address her public accusations against Kirk's inner circle—charges Kim calls reckless and damaging. Owens quickly accepted, setting up a high-stakes showdown that could either expose facts or amplify chaos. Marc and Kim debate conspiracy theories, digital evidence, and the blurred line between truth-seeking and opportunism, with Kim voicing sharp disappointment in Owens' behavior and her exploitation of private moments for clicks.
