Navy Lt. Commander Thomas E. Caldwell disabled veteran in his sixties—was living peacefully on his Virginia family farm when FBI agents executed a pre-dawn SWAT raid. The charges? That he was a leader of the Oath Keepers who stormed the Capitol and "hunted down" members of Congress.Every single claim was false.Tom was never a member of the Oath Keepers. He never entered the Capitol. He never planned an attack. The Government has since admitted all of this—but only after Tom spent over 50 days in solitary confinement and endured years of prosecution. Navy Intelligence officer, acquitted of all conspiracy charges, Supreme Court victory - with documented proof of prosecutorial misconduct: Assistant U.S. Attorney lying to magistrates, DOJ perjury, falsified evidence. With Trump now reviewing FBI leadership and 4,000+ agents, Tom's story explains exactly why that matters. Plus, Tom's incredibly compelling on how faith sustained him through 53 days of solitary confinement and years of persecution.The Mouths of the Wicked releases November 6 WHY NOW: Tom's explosive new book, The Mouths of the Wicked: A True January 6 Story of Corruption, Persecution, Survival, and Victory, releases November 6. For years, he was legally silenced. Now pardoned, he's finally free to reveal everything—how the FBI made assumptions without investigation, how he corrected their "evidence" during interrogation, and how the media branded him a would-be assassin. All lies. All documented. THE NEWS HOOK: The Trump administration is conducting an unprecedented review of FBI leadership and the 4,000+ agents who worked Jan. 6 cases—raising urgent questions about investigative standards and accountability. Tom's case is documented proof of what went wrong: the FBI raided based on assumptions, held him 50+ days in solitary, then quietly admitted every charge was false. As the bureau faces scrutiny over its Jan. 6 investigations, Tom's story reveals the human cost of "arrest first, investigate later." YOUR AUDIENCE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS: The FBI raided based on ASSUMPTIONS—admitted they were wrong AFTER the arrest Held 50+ days in solitary for crimes the Government now admits he didn't commit Never entered the Capitol, yet branded a terrorist and assassin A disabled veteran in his sixties treated like a violent extremist First time telling the complete, unfiltered story Tom is a grandfather-aged Christian veteran who served his country honorably—only to have that government destroy his reputation and livelihood based on false accusations they later retracted. With The Mouths of the Wicked released November 6, he's finally telling the full truth. "Even a pardon does not bring full restoration." — Thomas E. Caldwell Feature: "FAKE NEWS!! CFACT.org @CFACTDonnaJackson - COP30: The usual suspects sound the alarm, but funding is diminishing By Peter Murphy| November 10th, 2025|11Comments Prince William speaks, but others are singing a newclimate tune Belém, Brazil The CFACT crew has descended upon this year’s UnitedNations 30th Conference of the Parties, hosted by the nation ofBrazil in the northern city of Belém. The adjacent and thought-to-be preciousAmazon rainforest received a major haircut to make way for the new AvenidaLiberdade highway and hotel space for this annual gabfest on climateexistentialism. Right on cue, world leaders began the proceedings to sound thealarm. The wrinkle for this year’s conference is that fewerpeople are listening to the familiar and shopworn admonitions about climateexistentialism to the planet, starting with the executive branch of thewealthiest nation and one of the top climate donors. Let’s start with the future king of the rapidly decliningBritish Empire, William, the Prince of Wales. Following in his father’s climatefootsteps, “Wills,” as his late mother, Diana, affectionately referred tohim, warned:“All of us here today understand that we are edging dangerously close to theearth’s critical tipping points … The melting of polar ice, the loss of theAmazon, the disruption of ocean currents … these are not distant threats. Theyare fast-approaching and will affect every one of us, no matter where we live.” Despite his vapid claim, “The science is clear,” theprince provided none in his speech. He should try next time with CFACT’s latest“Climate Fact Check” (here). William also praised his father, King Charles III, forinspiring him on the climate issue, and it shows. His speech had a familiarring, since then-Prince Charles said pretty much the same thing at COP26 inScotland back in 2021, which he summedup as the “last-chance saloon” for the planet Earth. His Royal Majesty the King has a longrecord of climate exaggerations and scaremongering that continue to bediscredited with the passage of time, yet it gives his son and successor nopause or humility on the subject. In 2009, Charles warned that “irretrievableclimate collapse” was just 100 months away. Just before 2017 came and went, herecalculated the point of no return to around 2050, thereby falling in linewith the UN groupthink goal of achieving “net-zero” carbon emissions worldwide. At this COP30, more than climate is changing, with atleast one long time activist and funder having second thoughts. Bill Gates,founder and former long-time head of the Microsoft Corporation and for a timethe wealthiest man on planet Earth, has been rethinking his approach to climateby shifting his fortune to other, more urgent priorities. This matters greatlysince he presides over the largest private foundation, valued at$86 billion. While he still views climate change as a “problem,” Mr.Gates said lastmonth, “It will not lead to humanity’s demise” — a statement that cuts the legsout from under the entire climate agenda. That is because if the planet’sfuture and humanity itself no longer hang in the balance, there is no reason tolight everyone’s hair on fire — and extract trillions of taxpayer dollars anddebt — to purportedly deal with the matter. Rather, Gates writes, “Our chief goal should be toprevent suffering, particularly for those in the toughest conditions who livein the world’s poorest countries.” This means curbing CO2 emissions willtake a distant back seat. The financial implications of this shift are significant.The massive Gates Foundation fortune shifting its priorities to fighting globalpoverty and disease in developing countries is money better spent. Trying tostop natural climate variations in one direction over the next 30 years willnot feed one malnourished child, nor will it stop another diseased child fromdying well before adulthood and the supposed climate Armageddon. Another big change at COP30 is the effect of democracyleading to the re-election of Donald Trump as president of the U.S., resultingin the absence of his administration at COP30. The president is defunding the“Green New Scam,” as he describes it, which we will explore later this week. Money is the mother’s milk of the climate industry.Having the richest country and the richest benefactor either pull the plug orshift priorities is a very big deal. Which brings us back to Prince William. Notwithstandingthe British royal family’s climate silliness and hypocrisy, Igive credit to William and his lovely wife, Kate, who otherwise are genuine andcommitted public servants, in contrast to their pretentious grifter relatives residingeight time zones westward. With King Charles, who turns 77 this week and hasbeen fighting cancer for two years, William will soon ascend to the throne ashead of state to a rapidly declining Great Britain with a growing litany oftroubles and crises that eclipse esoteric climate change. Now that Prince William’s climate trek to Brazil and hisvirtue-signaling speech are behind him, he should focus his nation on energydevelopment, the economy, migrant issues, and his nation’s assault on freespeech, to name a few much higher priorities than climate. CFACT isat the Brazil climate conference where the UN has learned nothing By Craig Rucker| CFACT This year’s big UN climate summit opens today in Belem,Brazil, and CFACT’s team of policy experts is there! President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord,coupled with his epic takedown ofclimate dogma at the UN General Assembly, has sent shockwaves through the UNclimate establishment. While the U.S. may be boycotting the conference, UNCOP30 is kicking off today solidly under Trump’s shadow. It is time for the President to lead us even further. CFACT said in a press release: “CNN has already hyped COP30 as ‘one of the mostconsequential climate summits in a decade’ — but it could prove even morehistoric. For the first time since the U.S. signed the 1992 Rio Earth Summittreaty, there will be no official U.S. delegation present.” “Undeterred, CFACT’s team of U.S. climate skeptics isstepping up as the self-declared ‘unofficial’ U.S. delegation to COP30. They’llbe on the ground to amplify Bill Gates’ recent climate realism — that climatechange ‘will not lead to humanity’s demise’ — while backing the more than100 nations that have yet to submit their so-called ‘required’ plans tothe UN for hitting the Paris Accord’s net-zero targets. “CFACT will also expose the clear-cutting of thousands ofacres of the tropical Amazon rainforest to build a highway to accommodatethe COP30 event.” Team Climate will not relinquish a dollar of funding or anounce of power without a fight. Rachel Cleetus, of the Union ofConcerned Scientists said, “No country, including the United Statesthat is now being led by an anti-science, increasingly authoritarian Trumpadministration, can stop global climate action … The question is, is it goingto accelerate fast enough, given the dire space we’re in now with the climatecrisis? We have this rapidly shrinking window. The science is absolutelystark.” We’re hearing a lot of similar talk at the conference. Peter Murphy explains at CFACT.org that “moneyis the mother’s milk of the climate industry. Having the richestcountry and the richest benefactor either pull the plug or shift priorities isa very big deal.” While President Trump’s actions represent tremendousprogress in the fight to reestablish climate realism, the UN climate processremains incredibly dangerous. CFACT is on the job. We’ll keep you fully informed. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is the VIC 4 VETS, Weekly Honored Veteran. SUBMITTED BY: Sue Goodman Sgt Joseph Anton WuestnerDad was inducted into the Army on June 18th, 1941. He was released over 4 years later on November, 25th, 1945. He completed his basic training at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. He also trained in Louisiana. He then traveled to Hawaii and was transferred by ship to the battleground of New Guinea. Joseph Anton Wuestner was a Rifleman in the Infantry and fought both in New Guinea and Luzon in The Philippines. In The Philippines, he mentioned (in one of his letters to Mom) that he had been in continuous fighting for over 100 days. He witnessed horrific scenes and told Wayne that, in one battle, only he and another soldier survived. He and his fellow soldiers dealt with torrential rains, heat, disease(often transmitted by mosquitos,) and sometimes lack of food. One time, he had only a can of tuna to share with the men in his squad. Dad spent a month in the hospital in The Philippines. We are not sure why he was hospitalized. We do know that he had malaria while he was overseas and also came home with shrapnel in his back. In one of his letters to Mom, he said that he was supposed to receive a Purple Heart for his wounds, but evidently paperwork from overseas became jumbled or lost and he never received this award. When the war was over and Dad returned to the USA, he was in poor physical shape and spent several months recovering in a military hospital in Texas. Sergeant Joseph A. Wuestner is Honored with a stone commemorating his service in World War II in Veterans Tribute Park in St. Charles, MO. This was a gift to Mom from her Grandchildren and her Great Grandchildren.________________________________________________________________ This Week’s VIC 4 VETS, Honored Veteran on NewsTalkSTL.With support from our friends at:Alamo Military Collectables, and Monical’s PizzaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We do know that he had malaria while he was overseas and also came home with shrapnel in his back. In one of his letters to Mom, he said that he was supposed to receive a Purple Heart for his wounds, but evidently paperwork from overseas became jumbled or lost and he never received this award. When the war was over and Dad returned to the USA, he was in poor physical shape and spent several months recovering in a military hospital in Texas. Sergeant Joseph A. Wuestner is Honored with a stone commemorating his service in World War II in Veterans Tribute Park in St. Charles, MO. This was a gift to Mom from her Grandchildren and her Great Grandchildren.________________________________________________________________ This Week’s VIC 4 VETS, Honored Veteran on NewsTalkSTL.With support from our friends at:Alamo Military Collectables, and Monical’s PizzaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Steve Shaw In-StudioCottonwood Gunners for Vic4Vets InitiativeFundraiser for "Got Your Six Support Dogs"American Roots band Cottonwood Gunners in partnership with Affton MO venue 9 Mile Garden, are presenting their third annual veteran's benefit on Saturday, November 15 from noon to 4:00 pm. A fun day - in the wake of the Veteran's Day holiday - of music, drink specials, dogs, 50/50 raffles and more! 100% of all money raised will go to Got Your Six Support Dogs. GOT YOUR SIX SERVICE DOGS TESTIMONIAL - PARKER NAHRGANG As a part of Cottonwood Gunners veteran celebration, we honor our friend Parker Nahrgang and his wonderful support dog Eddie. A corporal in the US Marine Corps, Parker was deployed twice to Afghanistan – in 2012 and again in 2013. He was a part of the MWSS-273 (Marine Wing Support Squadron) where he spent the majority of his time in the Forward Operating Base (FOB) Edinburgh, Afghanistan. We have gotten to know Parker well and are not only amazed by his bravery, but also his willingness to say "yes" to the service of our country along with his humbleness. Eddie was a graduate of Got Your Six PTSD Support Dogs and never fails to impress us as well – he is indeed on-watch at all times! It's this first-hand knowledge of the profound difference that GY6 makes in veterans' lives that inspired us for this year's fund raise Parker's first deployment occurred less than three months after his daughter was born. Two years later during his second deployment, his son was born – but at least he was able to video call for the birth. During Parker's two Afghanistan deployments, he was faced with countless traumatic events that were nothing short of soul-crushing. Words can seldom describe what leaving a safe and loving home for a combat zone is truly like. It's an internal struggle that many veterans have faced overseas. In Parker's words, "Quite honestly, I don’t believe there are any words in existence that could adequately describe the experiences we face overseas." But the nature of war does not allow for the time to process or grieve. This Marine was able to make it out on the other side okay, and he says, "I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt Got Your Six PTSD Support Dogs gave me my life back." After exiting the Marine Corps, the trauma Parker had been bottling up for years was very evident. He became an emotionless shell of a man. Logically, he knew that he "loved" his family, but all the emotions that he "should" have felt didn't exist. Heart-brokenly and simply put, he didn’t care about his son, his daughter, or his wife. The emotional connection to them was nonexistent - they seemed like complete strangers to him. This is the horrible reality to living with PTSD. Add to that the PTSD symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger, nightmares and so much more including the inability to sleep with about 1-3 hours total a night and rarely longer than 30-minute stints. In Parker's words, "Countless veterans have experienced the same turmoil and suffering I have. Many of which still haven’t received the help they need. Unfortunately, the VA leaves many of us behind... If it were not for the overwhelming generosity of GY6 and those who support their efforts, my life and many others like mine, would be completely different. I like to imagine our souls are like big puzzles, and PTSD destroys that puzzle. But every person at GY6 selflessly takes their own pieces… pieces of their own heart and soul… and gives them to these dogs, it's with those pieces I was finally able to start putting mine back together. I cannot say it enough... Got Your six changed my life, the lives of many others before me, and continue to change the lives of those who came after me. I will never be able to repay GY6 for what they did for me. My hope is to inspire generosity in others so that GY6 can continue their mission, saving lives for many years to come." Speaking on from when after he came home from war and stuck in a terrible cycle of PTSD symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger, nightmares, and sleeplessness, "After a while, and thanks to a persistent wife, I started seeking mental health help. But nothing ever fully worked for me. Some medications would take the edge off my symptoms, but the struggles were still there controlling every aspect of my life. At one point I was on 9 medications that barely scratched the surface. One of the hardest things I had to hear was my doctor saying "Parker, I am sorry... I honestly do not know what to do". I was devastated... I had been holding onto hope that the suffering was temporary. But after years of holding on to that hope, trying countless GOT YOUR SIX SERVICE DOGS TESTIMONIAL - PARKER NAHRGANG medications, countless therapy sessions, countless doctors, and THEN to hear your doctor say we're out of options… Then, by what I can only describe as "an act of God" my wife encountered Got Your Six PTSD Support Dogs. During this encounter they immediately welcomed her with open arms, encouraging her, and began pursuing to helping me. GY6 informed me that it would likely be 1-2 years before they would have a dog ready for me. It takes time to train these dogs, and I just needed to breath, and wait. But after about 5 or 6 months, once again, by what I can only call a direct act of God, GY6 had more dogs pass their training than expected. That’s when I received a call from Nicole Lanahan (founder of GY6), and she asked me if I was ready. I attended their Service Animal training and therapy retreat for 10 days, which was the start of my life changing. The people I met and built relationships with was unbelievable, these connections were something I hadn't felt in years. I finally had a community of other veterans that were in the exact same boat as me, it was a place of belonging. We were not alone anymore, GY6 was holding us together, supporting us, and giving us a priceless gift. I want to help you understand what these dogs like Eddie do…and what he did that first night. At some point in the night during a nightmare he had crawled on me, nudging me, comforting me, he was sensing every time there was a nightmare about to happen and he would wake me "just enough" to not fully wake me, but stop the nightmare from happening, he stood watch, remaining vigilant throughout the night protecting me. Cottonwood Gunners Uniquely Midwestern, American Grit Cottonwood Gunners is a uniquely midwestern American roots ensemble from Saint Louis, Missouri whose spirited and clever compositions are inspired by a remarkable passion for their country and their state and whose members met in the blues bars of Saint Louis’ historic Soulard district. Portraying a fiery brand of songwriting that is reminiscent and influenced by the likes of Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt, the Cottonwood Gunner unique brand fuses Americana, Outlaw Country, and Electric Folk. Their rare songwriting craftsmanship is highlighted by the brilliant fiddle and mandolin playing of Brian Elder (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and multi-instrumentalist Mark Hrabovsky (Mike Zito Band, Wack-a-doo, Suave Octopus) blended with the catchy melody and rhythms of cousins Steve Fowler’s bass (Still Free) and Steve Shaw’s guitar (Freeze the Hopper). The Cottonwood Gunner musicality and lyrical content focus on family and life of the Midwest and, combined with smart versions of classic American covers contributes to unforgettable live shows of unquestionable excitement, sentiment, and fun. Their set will make you want to dance, laugh, cry, salute Old Glory and pray to God! All four members have been hailed in their own right as published songwriters to rave reviews across the globe with a combined fourteen full length recordings and countless tours through over 100 cities and towns in the Midwest and throughout the world as part of USO tours.

This is the VIC 4 VETS, Weekly Honored Veteran. SUBMITTED BY: JOE RUSCH Jim Mayerwho is a US Army veteran that served in Vietnam. He will be inducted in the Missouri Veterans Hall of Fame on Friday, October 24th. The ceremony will take place in the rotunda of the State Capitol in Jefferson City. Just two months into his Army service in Vietnam, Jim was on patrol when he stepped on a land mine. He ended up losing both of his legs below the knee. April 25th, 1969 is the day that changed his life and in turn, it has changed the lives of hundreds, if not thousands of other veterans with whom he came in contact. Every April 25th, Jim celebrates his “Alive Day” with family and friends to note this turning point in his life. The “Milkshake Man” was born in the early 1990s. He has had an impact on many veterans who have suffered similar injuries. During visits to Walter Reed Hospital, Jim started bringing them McDonalds milkshakes to make them feel more at home and give them a feeling of comfort. Jim worked at the VA from 1978 to 2007 and then moved to the Wounded Warrior Project as the Director of Peer Mentoring from 2007 to 2016. Jim was inducted into the Affton (MO) High School Hall of Fame in 2009.

This is the VIC 4 VETS, Weekly Honored Veteran. SUBMITTED BY: Buck Carter’s little girl - Allison Schottenhaml Private first-class Buck Carter Vic & KenToday I would like to honor my father Private first class Buck Carter. Born February 3, 1917 in Sikeston Missouri. In 1943 my father was working on his families 700 acre farm outside Sikeston raising cotton , corn, wheat and cattle including driving truck to take crops to barges on the Mississippi river. Everything we know about my father's military history comes from his DD214 and military Personnel records we acquired after he passed away. As he would not really share much of his service.We know on April 23, 1943 he signed up for the US Army at Jefferson Barracks.Line 18 on dd214 Race there are 3 options white, negro or other! His is marked other he was part of the Cherokee Nation.Line 30 military occupational specialty & number. Rifleman 745. I had to look that up and found this: Must be proficient in the use of such hand weapons as rifle, automatic rifle, carbine, pistol, rocket launcher, rifle grenade, hand grenade, flame thrower & bayonet. Must be proficient in the technique of hand to hand combat to destroy enemy Personnel & to assist advance against an enemy position. May perform supervisory duties to control, coordinate & tactical employment of a fire team.Line 32 Battle & Campaigns, Normandy with arrowhead meaning part of D-daySaint Lo-France, Rhineland-GermanyLine 33 Decorations & citations,American Theater Ribbon, World War II Victory Metal, Presidential Unit Citation, Army Occupational Metal (more than 30 consecutive days in occupied territory), Good Conduct metal, Honorable Discharge Lapel Ribbon and Bronze Star.Date of discharge December 21, 1946 After returning from the war my father decided to not return to farming since his 3 brothers were running the farm and he has experience driving a 1 1/2 ton truck he decided he wanted to be a long haul truck driver and see the country he fought for! After a few years of driving he became part owner of a very successful heavy hauling & rigging company in St. Louis and was able to retire when I was 9 years old and we moved to 150 acre ranch raising cattle and appaloosa horses. Every summer when I was out of school we would load up our horses and hit the road camping and trail riding around the country mostly camping on Indian Reservations and visiting historical sites. He taught me to love this country and I believe those trips taught me more than all the history courses in school.When I was 22 years old my father passed away suddenly from a brain aneurysm while out eating breakfast with my mom! That was the worse phone call of my life! I was a daddy's girl and miss my father so much everyday but blessed to have spent so much quality time with him! ________________________________________________________________ This Week’s VIC 4 VETS, Honored Veteran on NewsTalkSTL.With support from our friends at:Alamo Military Collectables, H.E.R.O.E.S.
