In the introduction to “The Surangama Sutra, A New Translation” by the Buddhist Text Translation Society, the section on “The Reasons for the Teaching” explains six reasons for this particular sutra, the title translating to something like, "heroic march or journey": 1) The first is the importance of balancing learning and meditation practice. The authors explain that Ananda, the interlocutor in this sutra, had “the keenest memory of all the Buddha's disciples” but thought he could rely solely on his intelligence and neglected his meditation practice, thus making himself vulnerable to the “spell” the young courtesan in the story cast upon him on the way to the meeting with Shakyamuni Buddha.They also explain “The Syllogism and the Tetralemma” as key forms of formal logical argument that the Buddha employs in trying to help Ananda navigate the intricacies of the nondual nature of Mind. Quoting one example, using the five parts of a syllogism: proposition, reason, instance, application and conclusion: 1) Proposition: it is the mind, not the eyes, that see2) Reason: our visual awareness is active even if nothing is being seen;3) Instance drawn from ordinary life: In the Buddha's words, “If you asked a blind man on the street, ‘Do you see anything?' he would no doubt answer, ‘All I see is darkness.'”4) Application of the instance: “Reflect upon what that might mean. Although the blind man sees only darkness, his visual awareness is intact.”5) Conclusion: “The eyes themselves simply reveal visible objects; it is the mind that sees, not the eyes.” A brief explanation of the Tetralemma, or Fourfold Negation, follows: In the logic of ancient India, statements could be affirmed, negated, neither affirmed nor negated, and both affirmed and negated. In this fourfold negation, sometimes called the “tetralemma,” (catuskoti), a proposition is asserted to be neither true, nor not true, nor both true and not true, nor neither true nor not true. That's a lot of neither-nors, for those of us who presume that Zen promotes a positive mental attitude. But they go on to explain that “This formula can serve as a reminder in our practice that all we perceive is empty of any attribute, and so nothing definitive can be asserted about the world and the contents of the mind.” In more recent times, namely the Thirteenth Century, Master Dogen affirms this tenet in several fascicles from his masterwork, the Shobogenzo, including “Self-Fulfilling Samadhi (J. Jijuyu Zammai): All this however does not appear within perception because it is unconstructedness in stillness — it is immediate realization. If practice and realization were two things, as it appears to the ordinary person, each could be recognized separately. But what can be met with recognition is not realization itself, because realization is not reached by a deluded mind. Implicit in this last is that, therefore, any form of recognition, of any perception, is itself delusion. It is only when perception itself undergoes deconstruction that the delusory nature of perception becomes apparent. If fundamental reality cannot be perceived, let alone recognized, described and asserted as real, we have to embrace a new definition of primary experience itself, most immediately before it is translated into perception. Nagarjuna gets a mention as the founder of the “Emptiness (Madhyamaka) school of Buddhism” who “popularized the logical negation of these four possibilities as a way of showing the emptiness of anything that might be construed as a real, permanent self or phenomenon or as an attribute of a real, permanent self or phenomenon.” Note that the imputed self is lumped in with all other phenomena as fundamentally unreal. The question of whether things are real or not, is not the question in Zen, however. The existential question in Zen is not either-or black-and-white, but HOW things exist. They exist by virtue of emptiness; that is, with determinate characteristics of impermanence, imperfection, and insubstantiality. Given these three attributes yes, things do actually exist. For now. Forever is a different story. One might argue the case that “thingness” exists forever, and that no single thing is separate from all things. But what we perceive as a thing is pulling a fast one on us. Don't be fooled. An interesting and, I think, cogent definition of enlightenment and awakening is included, and I quote: In this volume we use the English terms “enlightenment” and “awakening” as synonyms. In Buddhism, when these terms are used in a formal sense, they do not connote a temporary experience but rather a complete and irreversible transformation of one's fundamental way of being in the world. Only the enlightenment of a Buddha is perfect and complete. The text goes on to explain that others, such as those folks who function as Bodhisattvas, “have awakened but have not perfected their awakening.” There are several other definitions of some of the more ubiquitous jargon terms of Buddhism, which often go unexplained, and just as often lend to confusion, rather than alleviating it. While the idea of perfecting awakening may seem to contradict the mark of imperfection that is one key characteristic of dukkha, the unsatisfactory nature of sentient existence, it is important that we do not go off the deep end of intellectual analysis with every seeming contradiction. We must have faith that there is no real dichotomy in reality. As Matsuoka Roshi would often say, there is no dichotomy in Zen. That all such confusion will be resolved in meditation of the “right” kind, is a kind of faith in Zen Buddhism. So just where is this so-called mind? If there is such a thing, it must be somewhere, right? And what about this Original Mind versus ordinary mind? Are there two minds? We often hear the trope, “I am of two minds about this…” This is one of many confusions that arise in Zen practice, owing to the dualistic nature of the discriminating mind trying and failing to comprehend nonduality. The question or conjecture of the true mind versus the constructed mind may be considered foremost in the focus of Zen meditation. In the section on “The Request [from Ananda] for Dharma,” the dialog ensues: The Buddha said to Ānanda, “It is as you say: your mind and eyes were the reason for your admiration and delight. Someone who does not know where his mind and eyes are will not be able to overcome the stress of engagement with perceived objects… I am now asking you: precisely where are your mind and eyes?” In the interrogation that follows, Ananda responds with great sincerity and increasing stress as Buddha mercilessly rejects each response, thus mercifully reducing Ananda's reliance on intellectual analysis to the level of futility. Ironically, Buddha expresses the very engagement with perception as a form of stress. That the mind is in the body is the first and most obvious idea, dismissed immediately with a syllogism, demonstrating the impossibility of Ananda's assertion. Same for outside the body. Ditto for residing in the faculty of vision. Even that the mind is in the middle, between the sense faculty and its object. Even no specific location — no dice. One gets the impression that Ananda is like the sinner in the old spiritual, “O sinner man, where you gonna run to? All on that day.” There is no place to hide, no answer that is going to satisfy this demon in hot pursuit of him. This may represent the first koan assignment and the following distress-inducing exchange with the Rinzai master. Then Buddha performs a minor miracle, as he is wont to do — so that all present have an intense, if unexplainable, experience of the Buddha's power, involving light radiating from his countenance, infinite worlds appearing in all directions at the same time — your garden variety astonishing sign that he is about to say something significant, so listen up: People who undertake a spiritual practice but who fail to realize the ultimate enlightenment…all fail because they do not understand two fundamentals and are mistaken and confused in their practice. Ānanda, what are the two fundamentals? The first is the mind that is the basis of death and rebirth and that has continued since time without beginning. This mind is dependent on perceived objects, and it is this mind that you and all beings make use of and that each of you consider to be your own nature. The second fundamental is full awakening, which also has no beginning; it is the original and pure essence of nirvana. It is the original understanding, the real nature of consciousness. All conditioned phenomena arise from it, and yet it is among those phenomena that beings lose track of it. We are going to have to leave it there for this segment. A real cliff-hanger, with lots for you to chew on. We will continue with “The Nature of Visual Awareness,” one of my personal obsessions, next time, with a brief wrap-up of where the mind really resides. Thoroughly investigate this in your meditation, as Master Dogen would advise.

  Yesterday, voters in Texas decisively affirmed Proposition 10 in the Republican primary with its five-word mandate: Texas should prohibit Sharia law. With the support of 95% of those responding, banning Sharia—Islam's toxic, totalitarian, and demonic death cult—has become a voting issue not only in their state but across the country. Those voters recognize Sharia is utterly incompatible with the U.S. Constitution and the values of Judeo-Christian civilization. Its adherents are authorized if not actually commanded to follow the model of Islam's so-called perfect man, its prophet Muhammad, by engaging in demonic and illegal behavior. As Texans have learned more about what Sharia supremacists are insinuating in their state and intend to impose on them, they quite rightly reject it. And yesterday, they boosted the effort to ensure that Texas and hopefully the rest of the nation, does the same. Banshariya.com.   This is Frank Gaffney.

Today's D-Day in Texas. There are numerous hotly contested races for key federal and state offices in the Republican primary election. Important as those contest outcomes are, the single most consequential item is probably the last one on the ballot, Proposition 10. That's because it's five words. Texas should prohibit Sharia law, prescribe a vitally needed course correction in that state with regard to Islam's totalitarian political ideology and legal system, and offer a model for the rest of the country.    In recent months, the need for such a prohibition has taken center stage in Texas thanks to a massive Sharia adherent development in East Plano. Revelations that state institutions now offer only halal food consecrated to Islam's Allah, billions in taxpayer subsidies to pro-jihadist schools and organizations, and Muslims aggressively demanding further accommodations. Patriotic Texans must decisively approve Prop 10. BenSharia.com.    This is Frank Gaffney.

haria law is on the Texas ballot and I am breaking down exactly what Proposition 10 means for Texas freedom, the US Constitution, and the future of America. In this episode, I sit down with national security expert Frank Gaffney to expose the strategy behind Epic City, parallel courts, and the coordinated push to reshape Texas politics. If Texas falls, America is next, and you need to understand how this battle over Sharia law and constitutional authority could impact your state and your family. Watch now so you are informed, equipped, and ready to stand for faith, freedom, and the rule of law.   Podcast Episode 2041: Sharia Law on the Ballot, CAIR Strategy Exposed + Constitution Under Fire| don't miss this!

Last night, I had the opportunity to speak virtually alongside a renowned freedom-fighter named Mike Arnold with Nigerian-Americans now living in Houston and best described as foreign-born American patriots. These men and women appreciate intensely how precious – and how perishable – are the liberties most of us who had the God-given privilege of being born in this country take for granted.  They also recognize the mortal threat to Texas and the rest of the United States posed by adherents to Islam's totalitarian prescription for jihadist conquest known as sharia. After all, such sharia-supremacists have for years been genocidally murdering their fellow Christians in Nigeria with impunity.  Nigerian expatriates who are now U.S. citizens are especially motivated to vote for the Texas Republican primary's Proposition 10 which calls for prohibiting sharia in that state. Every patriotic Texan should without fail do the same. BanSharia.com.  This is Frank Gaffney.

President Trump will visit Corpus Christie tomorrow. He will be talking about economic issues and promoting his preferred candidates in next week's Republican primary election.  There's another compelling reason for Mr. Trump to get out the vote: The last item on the GOP ballot is Proposition 10 which simply says “Texas should prohibit sharia law.” A Trump endorsement of Prop 10 could help it achieve a decisive victory and catalyze an urgently needed policy course-correction in that state – and potentially across the nation. Otherwise, America is going to continue to follow Europe's steady slide into what the President has decried as “civilization erasure.” After all, destroying not just the USA, but Western civilization is the express goal of Islam's totalitarian and demonic sharia death-cult.  Obviously, we must preclude that. An overwhelming vote for Proposition 10 is the place to start. BanSharia.com.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Sharia law, Islamic immigration, and Western civilization—are they compatible with the U.S. Constitution? Filling in for Todd Huff on The Todd Huff Show, Krish Dhanam takes a deep dive into Islam's foundational teachings, the five pillars, Sharia law, and what he sees unfolding in Texas and across America. From mosque growth and halal policies to ballot measures like Proposition 10, this episode explores concerns about immigration, religious freedom, and cultural transformation. Whether you agree or disagree, this is a candid and thought-provoking conversation about faith, law, and the future of the United States.

An internal threat that Donald Trump illuminated directly and forcefully in his first run for the presidency is increasingly imperiling our Union. He must tackle it again in tonight's address to the Nation. On August 15, 2016, he warned of the danger posed by the ideology of “Radical Islam.” This demonic death-cult's adherents call it “sharia” and they're aggressively insinuating it across this country, especially in Texas. In his speech in Youngstown, Mr. Trump promised to “strip out and remove one by one the support networks of Radical Islam.” That's a promise made, but as yet unkept. On Friday, the President will be in Texas in the endgame of its Republican primary election. The ballot features Proposition 10 which simply says, “Texas should prohibit sharia law.” Tonight, he can begin to fulfill his longstanding commitment by endorsing Prop 10.  BanSharia.com. This is Frank Gaffney.

Over the next five days, early voting in Texas' Republican primary will wrap up. Typically, most voters will cast their ballots early. Consequently, those who didn't do so last week, as well as those who will on election day March 3rd, must know that there's more at stake than a number of hotly contested races at the top of the ballot. At its very end is perhaps the single most important choice on any ballot anywhere in the country this election year. That's Proposition 10. Its entire contents are: “Texas should prohibit sharia law.”  Prop 10 is neither law nor binding. But it offers Republican voters and others who can vote in this open primary a momentous choice: Ban sharia or allow sharia ultimately to ban freedom in Texas – with momentous implications for that state and the rest of the country. BanSharia.com. This is Frank Gaffney.

In this episode of Policy Chats, host Dori Pham sits down with Professor Wei Guo, Associate Professor at the UCR School of Public Policy, to discuss how climate related disasters strain state and local public finances and what that means for equity and long term resilience.Professor Guo explains why disaster recovery spending often remains elevated for years, while revenue effects especially property tax revenue vary depending on institutional structures. Using California as a case study, she highlights how Proposition 13 can produce unexpected fiscal outcomes after wildfires through property reassessments tied to housing turnover.The conversation also examines how reimbursement based disaster aid can unintentionally discourage climate adaptation, reinforce rebuilding in high risk areas, and deepen inequalities for marginalized communities with limited upfront fiscal capacity. The episode concludes with a call to move from reactive recovery toward proactive climate adaptation, with stronger leadership and investment from state and federal governments.

This is a major episode of Talk Dirt To Me, covering some of the biggest stories currently impacting American agriculture, rural landowners, and national farm policy. We begin with the story of Gregory Family Farm in Sumner County, Tennessee, and their ongoing battle with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) over eminent domain. This situation raises serious questions about private property rights, government authority, and what happens when multi-generation farmland stands in the path of federal infrastructure projects. We explain what is happening, why it matters beyond Tennessee, and what this case could mean for farmers and landowners across the country. Next, we break down President Trump's executive action protecting Glyphosate and Phosphorus and discuss why the decision is tied not only to agriculture but also to food security and national security. We examine how crop protection tools affect American production capacity, global competitiveness, and the stability of the U.S. food supply. The conversation then turns to an in-depth look at Farm Bill 2.0. This episode serves as our first comprehensive breakdown of the new legislation and what it includes for farmers and rural communities. Topics covered include strengthened farm safety nets, conservation funding through EQIP and CRP programs, efforts to improve export competitiveness, pesticide liability protections, increased farm loan limits, and provisions aimed at limiting the nationwide impact of California's Proposition 12. We also discuss potential concerns and areas that may change as amendments continue to shape the bill. We will continue updating listeners as new developments occur. Along the way, the episode includes classic Talk Dirt To Me conversation, including Memphis rap nostalgia, Logan's story about an interview with a legacy media outlet that will likely never air, and a recap of our experience at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville. Made in USA Product of the Week: the suppressor cover from T and K Hunting Gear, built for durability and performance in the field.

House Ag Committee releases new farm bill text, USDA headlines and a new report projecting more soybean acres in 2026 are some of this week's top agriculture stories. Today's show breaks down what the latest “Farm Bill 2.0” proposal could mean for producers and shares reaction from ag groups, including the National Pork Producers Council, which expressed appreciation for language addressing California's Proposition 12. USDA updates include a new $1 billion one-time assistance program for specialty crop and sugar growers, news that the number of U.S. farms declined by 15,000 in 2025 and expanded disaster payments for producers impacted by catastrophic drought, flooding and wildfires in 2023 and 2024. Additional headlines this week include a report forecasting steady growth in the U.S. agricultural equipment market and a new partnership between NASCAR and POET to promote zero-carbon bioethanol. In market news, a new CoBank report projects soybean acreage will increase nearly six percent to 86 million acres in 2026. In this week's interview, we discuss how pork producers are working to improve efficiency while maintaining strong animal welfare standards as they evaluate barn updates and expansion plans. Hyatt Frobose, North America commercial director at Jyga Technologies, shares insights on helping producers navigate renovation decisions amid policy pressures such as Proposition 12, while maintaining operational flexibility.

A very serious threat to freedom is rising in our nation. Many people have not heard of, nor do they understand how adherents to Sharia Law want to change our culture, legal system, and ultimately our entire system of government. They have openly admitted such desires and are working diligently throughout the country to accomplish their goals. In this episode, Linda interviews policy expert, Frank Gaffney, to discuss the need for all citizens to be aware and informed on this matter. Frank also provides time-sensitive information for people in Texas who have an opportunity to express opposition to Sharia Law and show support for our Constitution through voting in a special election on March 3, 2026. (Early voting has already started.) Proposition 10 is a simple ballot proposal stating opposition to Sharia Law, and if passed it will send a message to Texas and the nation that we want our Constitution to remain the law of the land. This issue affects every community and every citizen, not just those in Texas. If you care about freedom, you do not want to miss this episode.  ©Copyright 2026, Prosperity 101, LLC For more information on Sharia Law and the Texas ballot proposal, please visit www.BanSharia.com. __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

Jihadists worldwide have concluded that they will achieve Western civilization's destruction as sharia commands. Their success in gang-raping with impunity some one million British girls is proof-positive that they're right.  Pastor Jocko Booyens – an international leader in fighting such criminal sexual exploitation – warns that many American girls are being subjected to similarly rapacious behavior through so-called “beneficial relationships” cultivated by an institution dubbed “Sugar Baby University.” It should be known as “Rape U.” Texans started voting yesterday on Proposition 10 aimed at prohibiting sharia law. The fact that reducing crushing student debt is our causing our girls to be raped, impregnated and/or induced to convert to Islam and relocate to the Mideast – practices all condoned by sharia – is just one more reason why Prop 10 must pass.

Prudent military officers plotting battlefield strategies are mindful of an immutable fact that can undo even the most brilliant of plans: “The enemy gets a vote.”  Starting today in the state of Texas, that is literally the case. With the beginning of early voting in its open GOP primary, Democrats, independents and, yes, jihadists can vote among other things on the ballot's Proposition 10 which simply says, “Texas should prohibit sharia law.”  If only Republican Texans voted, a call for banning Islam's toxic, totalitarian and demonic ideology masquerading as a religion now being insinuated into their state would pass overwhelmingly. If they do not turn out massively, however, our sharia-supremacist enemies may well do so, and significantly skew the vote.  So, it behooves every patriotic Texan voter to turn out and say “Yes” to Prop 10 and a sharia-free Texas.

With low commodity prices and constricted global markets, farmers are under a lot of stress. John Shutske, Professor and Extension Specialist: Safety Engineering & Agricultural Health, UW-Madison says it's important to remember your mental health resources. He tells Kiley Allan that high levels of stress are being driven by chaotic trade policies and market unknowns, compounded by a "work harder" agricultural stigma that often prevents people from seeking help. Waking up in the early morning with racing thoughts is the primary red flag that professional medical intervention is needed. He explains that stress-induced cortisol affects the brain's frontal lobe, leading to poor communication and childish behavior, which can result in a vicious cycle of bad business decisions.Wisconsin could hit the 60's today - not what you'd expect on February 16th.

He's got it on a fast track, with mark up scheduled for February 23rd. Pam Jahnke visit with Perry Aasness, vice president of legislative affairs for Compeer Financial on what this version contains. Some of the highlights include "fixing" Proposition 12, addressing farm labor needs and programs supporting them, plus creating new partnerships that can help rural infrastructure including things like child care. Junie Kierce is the state champion of the 2nd annual WI Auctioneering challenge. She says she only knew about auctioneering after watching shows like "Storage Wars".

Wisconsin dairy farmers are bringing the farm to the classroom with the launch of the Care for the Land Escape Room, a digital, game-based learning experience for high school students.

Utah GOP leaders say they’ve submitted well over 200,000 signatures—enough to put a repeal of Proposition 4 on the November ballot. County clerks still need to verify the signatures, and as of Friday morning, only 88,948 had been validated, leaving a significant gap to close. The effort must also meet district‑level thresholds, while some voters have requested to have their names removed. What happens next will determine whether Utah’s anti‑gerrymandering law returns to voters. Taylor Morgan, Partner at Morgan May Affairs and Executive Director of Count My Vote, walks through what's next in the process.

The Utah Republican Party says it's delivered more than 200,000 signatures from Utahns who would like to repeal Proposition 4, the 2018 initiative that created an independent redistricting commission. Utahns for Representative Government delivered the final signature packets to county clerks yesterday afternoon. Now, it's up to county clerks to verify the signatures, make sure there's enough, and make sure they come from the right number of State Senate Districts. In this Deep Dive, Maria Shilaos hears from people on several sides of the issue: Robert Axson from Utahns for Representative Government, Emma Petty Addams with Mormon Women for Ethical Government, and Elizabeth Rasmussen with Better Boundaries. Taylor Morgan, executive director of Count My Vote also joins to share insights on the requirements to get the question on the ballot in November.

Proposition d'un député Horizons pour relancer la natalité

Eight years ago, Utah voters approved Proposition 4, a ballot initiative that, after a long legal battle, resulted in newly drawn congressional boundaries. Now, a group backed by the Utah Republican Party is trying to get a new initiative on the ballot, one that would eliminate Prop 4, and it has raised a lot of controversy.

"The black market exists only because we decided that this form of trade should be illegal." — Scott EdenIn October 2019, tech executive Tushar Atre was abducted from his oceanfront home in Santa Cruz and found murdered on his own property in the redwoods — shot execution-style, hands bound. He had spent barely three years in the cannabis business. Scott Eden's new book traces how a charismatic Silicon Valley entrepreneur, seeking to "disrupt" the newly legal weed industry, found himself entangled with an array of colorful and dangerous characters — hippie do-gooders, black-market operators, and stone-cold killers. We discuss the permeable divide between legal and illegal cannabis, why the industry has been an economic disaster for most founders, and whether America's half-pregnant approach to legalization created the conditions for Tushar's death. A California story about ambition, love, and the darker edges of the American dream.About the GuestScott Eden is an award-winning investigative journalist whose work has appeared in ESPN The Magazine, GQ, Wired, Inc., and The Atavist.

In this episode of the Howard Jarvis Radio Show, Susan Shelley is joined by Scott Kaufman, the legislative director of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association. They discuss the importance of protecting Proposition 13, a 1978 initiative that limits property tax increases to 2% per year. Scott explains how the courts have carved loopholes in taxpayer protections, allowing special interest groups to raise taxes with a simple majority vote. They also talk about the Save Prop 13 initiative, which aims to close these loopholes and ensure that new taxes require a two-thirds vote.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

INTERVIEW: KMJ Weekend Host John Gerardi (Saturday 4-6pm on KMJ) weighs in on the U.S. Supreme Court's decline to block California's Prop 50 map despite GOP challenges alleging racial gerrymandering. The justices cleared the way for California to implement its Proposition 50 congressional map, a redistricting plan expected to give Democrats an edge by adding up to five seats in the House. Lower courts found the map driven by partisan—not racial—motives, and the ruling means the new boundaries will stand for the 2026 midterms as voters intended.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for February 4, 2026. 0:30 We break down a deeply troubling decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to let California’s new congressional map move forward for the 2026 midterms without so much as a single dissent. We walk through why the Court is signaling that political gerrymandering is fair game as long as it isn’t explicitly racial, and how Democrats in California used Proposition 50 to wipe out the last illusion of independent redistricting. How do you guarantee a republican form of government when one party can rewrite the map mid-decade to lock in power? We compare California to Texas, revisit past Supreme Court signals, and confront the reality that this may be the rules of the game—even if those rules are poisoning public trust in our elections. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The Supreme Court ruled today that the state of California can use its new congressional maps in this year's upcoming elections.That could allow Democrats to pick up 5 extra seats in the house due to massive gerrymandering in the redrawn boundaries. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons is recommending postponing any gender related surgeries until after patients reach the age of 19. The Man who tried to kill President Trump at his golf course in Florida has been sentenced to life in Prison. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We break down Massachusetts’ so-called “Freedom to Move Act” and why, despite the branding, it’s really about reducing how much you’re allowed to drive and quietly limiting freedom of movement. Setting targets for vehicle miles traveled opens the door to fewer roads, less parking, slower speeds, and a growing push to force people onto public transportation whether it works for their lives or not. This isn’t about environmental policy—it’s about government deciding where and how you’re allowed to go. Real freedom doesn’t come from the state managing your movement; it comes from the government protecting your right to move without interference. 16:00 We ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson how they survived the historic ice storm that shut down much of the South, and what they saw when things got hard. From families stranded for hours on icy interstates, communities without power for days, and everyday people stepping up long before government help arrived. We talk about neighbors using ATVs to deliver food, water, diapers, and gas, strangers helping strangers, and why disasters have a way of revealing both resilience and character. When systems fail and the weather turns brutal, real strength still comes from faith, family, and community—and that given the chance, Americans will show up for one another. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We talk about the post-Dobbs reality, where abortion rates are actually rising in blue states, and why claiming “victory” is either naïve or dishonest. We walk through why leaders like Pope Leo and Mother Teresa were right to call abortion the greatest threat to peace, and why a society that treats unborn life as disposable can never truly be just or peaceful. We also connect the dots between abortion, euthanasia, and assisted suicide, including chilling policies in places like Canada and parts of the U.S. The message is simple and uncomfortable: when a culture abandons the value of innocent human life, everything else begins to unravel. 26:00 We Dig Deep into why the SAVE Act — the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act — should be a no-brainer for anyone who actually cares about election integrity. We walk through what the bill really does: requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote and ending online voter registration that’s ripe for fraud in an age of bots and AI. We look at the polling that demolishes the left’s favorite talking point, showing overwhelming support for voter ID across party lines and across racial groups. And we ask the uncomfortable but obvious question: if Democrats insist our elections are secure and only citizens are voting, why are they so desperate to kill the SAVE Act? The answer, frankly, doesn’t reflect well on them — and it raises serious red flags about who they want voting and why. 32:00 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 We take on the NFL’s bizarre announcement that ICE will not operate in or around the Super Bowl and ask the obvious question: since when does the NFL get to tell federal law enforcement where it’s allowed to do its job? We cut through the celebrity optics, activist pressure, and performative virtue signaling to talk about who actually attends the most expensive sporting event on the planet and whether the Super Bowl even makes sense as an immigration enforcement target. The conversation exposes the absurdity of carving out de facto “immigration-free zones” for optics while pretending it’s about safety or compassion. At the end of the day, this isn’t about football — it’s about who really runs the country and whether federal law still applies when celebrities, corporations, and political narratives get uncomfortable. 35:30 We talk about a real bright spot coming out of Republican-led states: serious efforts to cut — and in some cases eliminate — property taxes on homeowners. We break down why no American should ever risk losing their home simply because they can’t keep paying rent to the government, especially after they’ve already bought and paid for it. We connect the dots between rising property taxes, declining homeownership, and the destruction of generational wealth, particularly for young families and seniors on fixed incomes. We contrast red states looking for ways to lower the tax burden with blue states doubling down on higher taxes, and explain why targeted reforms — protecting primary residences while still taxing second homes, luxury properties, and corporations — are about economic freedom, not government handouts. 39:30 We react to the horrifying report that Savannah Guthrie’s elderly mother may have been abducted from her home, with blood found on the porch and her purse, phone, and life-sustaining medications left behind. We talk through the disturbing details, the possibility of a ransom demand involving Bitcoin, and the very real concern for her health and safety. We also reflect on President Trump’s response after being asked about the case — setting politics aside and calling it “absolutely horrifying,” while offering to personally reach out and help. This is one of those moments that cuts past media narratives and partisan lines, reminding us just how fragile life is and why this story stops you cold. 41:00 And finish off with an unbelievable and deeply moving story of survival when a family kayaking trip turned into a life-or-death fight against the ocean. Articles Supreme Court allows California to use congressional map benefitting Democrats Plastic surgeons recommend delaying gender surgery until 19 Man who tried to assassinate Trump at his Florida golf course is sentenced to life in federal prison States Weigh Ending Property Taxes for Homeowners Washington State Dems Introduce Millionaire's Tax, GOP Warns of Risks New Poll Crushes Dem, Media Narrative: Americans Demand Mass Deportations, Back ICE Overwhelmingly The SAVE Act Is Popular, and Democrats Are Terrified of It Trump: "Who Would Not Want Voter ID?

The 2026 midterm elections may be in November, but they're top of mind for California voters who will elect a new governor this year and who passed Proposition 50 last fall – redrawing congressional districts to favor Democrats in their bid to retake the House. We look at how redistricting is shaking out in races across the state. And we examine whether Democrats have gained an edge nationally as new polling shows voters souring on Trump's immigration and economic agenda, but concerns about election interference mount.

Whether it be threatening Minnesotans with the Insurrection Act or forcibly removing Nicolas Maduro from power, the Trump administration is moving towards the “Putinization” of the United States, according to historian Heather Cox Richardson.Later, Marc Elias joins Nicolle to discuss the success of Proposition 50 in California, which gives Democrats an edge in the upcoming midterms. Prop 50 was a direct response to Texas' redistricting efforts at the behest of Trump, which gave Republicans more seats in Congress.For more, follow us on Instagram @deadlinewhTo listen to this show and other MS NOW podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
