Yesterday marked the first day of the Democratic National Committee meeting in the Twin Cities which featured an appearance from State Senator John Hoffman. Also, it is Primary Day in Minnesota and Governor Tim Walz created a stir by making comments toward current President Donald Trump and the convention - we get Blois reaction to that.

Join Pastor John as we discuss what we must believe as Christians. What is the difference between false teaching, different interpretations, doctrinal disagreements, legalism, and legitimate, essential theology? We must answer these questions that divide rather than unite.

How can you drain the swamp if we not only ignore the primaries but remain silent as Trump continues to endorse every RINO, even in the reddest states, and even those who subvert his agenda? I discuss how too many people are focusing on redistricting as the panacea, when in fact the problem is in primaries because many of the Trump-endorsed RINOs are refusing to draw better districts. Next, I offer some more thoughts on how demonic and unfeasible the data center dystopia is and how local grassroots continue to push back against it. Finally, we need leaders who will be honest about the economy and the affordability crisis and explain how in order to make life more affordable, we must unwind the very policies that have created asset bubbles in housing and the stock market. Unfortunately, because we have slept in primaries for 10 years, our politicians only respond to the special interests that benefit from the asset bubbles.  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson breaks down the party's post-2024 election autopsy and explains why they're doomed to fail if they continue on their trajectory. “ After the defeat of Kamala Harris in November 2024, the Democrats decided recently to run an autopsy, a discovery, so to speak, of why they lost that election. These autopsies are not uncommon for the losing political party, but they only tend to work if you're honest and you try to analyze every considerable factor or criterion without censorship or without fear. “ They didn't have issues and policies that reflected their core values, but would also appeal to the middle class. … They don't want to talk about the middle class because their policies—open borders, The Green New Deal, Critical Race Theory, Critical Legal Theory, defund the police—all that have to be rejected because they're anathema to the middle class. They won't do it.”

Michael Smerconish has skin in the game — literally. In this episode, he breaks down his role as lead plaintiff in a landmark lawsuit challenging Pennsylvania's closed primary system. Joined by trial attorney Shanin Specter, Ballot PA Action's David Thornburgh, and PA State Rep. Jared Solomon, they explore the constitutional argument, the stakes for over a million independent voters, and why this could reshape electoral politics in swing states and beyond. A must-listen for anyone who cares about voting rights and the future of democracy. Original air date 16 July 2025.

Pennsylvania is one of at least nine states where political parties only allow their members to vote in primary elections, Not a registered Republican? Can't vote to pick the nominee. The same with Democrats.David Thornburgh, son of former PA Gov. Dick Thornburgh, has teamed up with media personality Michael Smirconish in a lawsuit to force the political parties to let independent voters participate in their primaries.David Thornburgh heads up PA Ballot Action, a coalition aimed at overturning the state's closed primary laws. He joins DVJournal's Linda Stein to discuss the lawsuit and why he believes allowing non-party members to participate will actually make the two parties stronger.Hosted by Michael Graham of InsideSources.com.

Michael explains why he is one of the lead plaintiffs in a Pennsylvania lawsuit that could (and should) shake up elections moving forward, and lays out the legal, personal, and political case. The filing urges the PA state Supreme Court to overturn the commonwealth's closed primary system, arguing it unconstitutionally denies nearly 1.4 million unaffiliated voters a voice in critical elections. Michael's answer to today's Smerconish.com poll question is "HELL YES": Should the nation's millions of registered Independent voters be able to vote in primary elections? Listen here, then vote!

This week, the Hacks are pulling double duty—two big stories, two top-notch guests. First, Senator Elissa Slotkin—former CIA analyst and Pentagon official—joins to break down U.S. involvement in Iran, Trump's handling of the strikes, and the rift this is opening inside the Republican Party. Then, the Hacks turn to the city that never sleeps with former U.S. Ambassador to South Africa and longtime New York political heavyweight Patrick Gaspard. They dig into the New York mayor's race, the ins and outs of ranked choice voting, and how generational divides, political comebacks, and a post-MeToo reckoning are reshaping the city's politics.

In this explosive episode, Bernie Sanders appears on Andrew Schulz's Flagrant podcast and drops a shocking truth: the Democratic Party hasn't held a fair primary since 2008. From rigging elections to suppressing opposition like RFK Jr., the episode uncovers deep-rooted corruption and oligarchic control within the Democratic establishment. The host dives into the broader implications—alleged general election fraud, government censorship, and normalization of political violence—arguing that America is following a dangerous path reminiscent of the Russian Revolution. This is the episode they don't want you to hear.

Early vote data shows local primaries are driving turnout, at least at this point. Michael Pope is digging into the numbers.

Friday is the first day of early voting for statewide and local primaries. Michael Pope has this preview.

David Hogg, the vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, announced he's spending $20 million through his group, Leaders We Deserve, to primary sitting Democratic incumbents. He's targeting safe-seat veterans, mostly older members, and it's kicking off a full-blown internal fight.DNC chair Ken Martin isn't having it. He's proposing a rule that would ban DNC leaders from participating in partisan primaries — meaning Hogg would either have to step down or drop the activist role. The rule's set to be debated at the DNC's August meeting, and Hogg's already digging in, saying he'll fight to stay. Martin's also announced a $1 million-a-month allocation to state parties, saying the DNC needs to decentralize. The real translation? Tension is so high they're trying to buy unity.But here's the thing — I actually think Hogg is right. The Democratic Party would benefit from some turnover. There are plenty of incumbents who have grown comfortable, complacent, and maybe even a little out of step. At the same time, that's only half the issue. Because the problem with tossing out incumbents is you need to replace them with winners. These older Democrats have won election after election, and that's not something you just replicate by parachuting in a 24-year-old with a TikTok following and a podcast. Safe seats aren't invincible. Primaries can backfire. And while I'm all for change, I'm also for winning.The larger problem here is that you can't be both the referee and the quarterback. If you're helping to write the rules for how the party operates, you don't get to break them for your own political goals. It's not about silencing voices — it's about basic conflict of interest. If the DNC is supposed to be the governing body that creates a level playing field, its leaders can't be in the middle of bloodying that field themselves.Hogg was already a controversial pick. He's got detractors inside and outside the party. He's drawn criticism not just from Republicans or centrists, but even from fellow gun control activists. The fact that this move feels more like a campaign than a strategic plan doesn't help. It feels loud. It feels disruptive. And in a moment when Democrats are trying to project unity — especially heading into an election where every House seat could make or break their control — it feels reckless.The reality is that American politics is in a narrow-band era. Gerrymandering, polarization, and party-line voting mean that major swings are less likely. Which makes every seat even more valuable. We're not in a 60-seat blowout environment anymore. We're in a +5, -5, maybe +15 cycle. That means replacing a proven vote-getter with someone untested — even in a “safe” district — can be dangerous.So yeah, I think Hogg is right that the party needs to evolve. But I also think he's wrong to do it this way. Because if it leads to chaos, to even a few avoidable losses, he's not just risking some outdated Democrats — he's risking the whole agenda. And if he's not willing to see that, then maybe Ken Martin's rule isn't such a bad idea after all.Check out Gabe's reporting at The Free Press!Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:55 - DNC Confusion00:05:43 - Interview with Gabe Kaminsky00:25:39 - Update00:25:58 - Ukraine Peace Deal00:29:42 - Voter ID00:31:24 - Canadian Election00:36:40 - Interview with Gabe Kaminsky, continued01:03:33 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

We open our show with a long monologue over the last few generations in our country suffering from an underdeveloped, perhaps near non-existent, emotional level of maturity. We then discuss how Rep. Jamie Raskin's (D-MD) threat not to work with Trump echoes the same warning coming from China. We also spend a little more time on the incongruous rulings coming from the SCOTUS. Inside the Federal Reserve, Trump has enemies everywhere, including Jerome Powell. There are Leftist operatives everywhere. In Colorado, a Soros-backed DA refuses to charge a member of the state government, even though he was caught doing over $20,000 of damage to Tesla's. Democrats are living they are being made to pay back their student loans.  The young beta male Vice Chair to the DNC, David Hogg is so mad with incumbent Democrats, he is planning to primary them. And Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) gets caught stammering over why she said Joe Biden was sharp and vibrant even in mid-2024?

Plus, Symone and Michael discuss the exploding generational divide in the DNC after  Vice Chair David Hogg announced his plan to primary older incumbent Demcorats.

Hosts: Leah Murray and Erin Rider  During the 2024 election cycle, we spoke several times about infighting among Republicans and unity among Democrats. But now, the infighting could be moving into the Democratic Party. The new 25-year-old vice chair of the Democratic National Committee is taking a hard stand against traditional Dems, pledging to fund primary challengers who will do more than the incumbents. 

This week WAMU will look at the opening of the new Cedar Hill Hospital in Southeast D.C. and a key financial deadline for the Virginia statewide elections.

The episode features a conversation between Hawk and Zee Cohen-Sanchez from Nationalgroundgame.com about two special elections in Florida for vacant House seats, with candidates Gay Valamont and Josh Weil running in traditionally Republican districts. Zee, who works with National Ground Game, discusses how these races are unexpectedly competitive, with Democratic candidates out-fundraising their Republican opponents by significant margins. The conversation highlights that early voting results are promising for Democrats, and that issues like veteran benefits, Social Security, and recent controversies involving Trump appointees and Republican text message leaks are resonating with voters in these districts.Zee explains that National Ground Game's approach focuses on "deep canvassing," which involves meaningful conversations with voters about their concerns rather than just asking who they'll vote for. This method has proven effective in flipping traditionally Republican districts in the past. Zee emphasizes that many potential voters in these districts are non-voters rather than Republicans who need to be converted, and that Democratic infrastructure in these areas has been neglected for years. Even if Democrats don't win these races, Zee believes making them competitive is important groundwork for future elections.The conversation concludes with a discussion about how Democrats have failed to effectively organize in primaries and connect online influence to real-world action, unlike Republicans who have built effective pipelines from social media to political engagement. Zee notes that Democrats appear to have more online talent and followers but haven't utilized them effectively to connect with campaigns. The podcast ends with a call to action for listeners to get involved with National Ground Game through phone banking and canvassing to help with the upcoming special elections.Follow Zee on TikTok for up to date information about these important races:https://www.tiktok.com/@zeetothehilltNational Ground Game Website:https://www.nationalgroundgame.com/Start Phone Banking NOW with this link:https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D8LH7DC1qvZwkM0fGx0tndAv_qjLujAw9Wkw4rhqCWs/htmlview SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH HAWK- Support on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mdg650hawk- Support Hawk's Merch Store: https://hawkmerchstore.com- Connect on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mdg650hawk7thacct- Connect on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hawkpodcasts ALL HAWK PODCASTS INFO- Additional Podcasts Available Here: https://www.hawkpodcasts.com- Listen to Hawk Podcasts On Your Favorite Platform:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3RWeJfyApple Podcasts: https://apple.co/422GDuLYouTube: https://youtube.com/@hawkpodcastsiHeartRadio: https://ihr.fm/47vVBdPPandora: https://bit.ly/48COaTBSimplecast: https://hawk-droppings.simplecast.com- Hawk Podcasts RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/pPVtxSNJ

A new poll this week shows that former Gov. Andrew Cuomo continues to be the frontrunner in this year's crowded Democratic mayoral primary. Since announcing his candidacy, Cuomo has remained at the top of the pack while continuing to deploy a rose garden strategy. Incumbent Mayor Eric Adams has finally begun to confront this tough political reality by taking on the former governor in his most pointed language yet. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, and political reporters Bobby Cuza and Kelly Mena break down all the latest news in the race for mayor. After that, Columbia University has agreed to sweeping policy changes on campus in an attempt to appease the Trump administration. The changes include hiring more public safety officers, cracking down on discipline and reviewing its Middle Eastern Studies Department. This comes as another New York institution, the law firm Paul Weiss, has capitulated to the Trump administration after the president had signed an executive order attempting to limit the firm's ability to litigate. The “Off Topic” team looks at these dramatic examples of Trump's influence on our city. Leave a message: 212-379-3440 Email: yourstoryny1@charter.com
