America is sitting on a $2 trillion opportunity and no one's talking about it. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the recent U.S. discoveries of massive lithium and rare earth deposits that could reshape the global economy, restore American manufacturing, and end our reliance on foreign adversaries like China. Now that President Trump is back in office, his administration is taking aggressive steps to fast-track development and unleash America's mineral dominance. But will the bureaucrats, eco-activists, and foreign interests succeed in derailing this opportunity? This episode reveals the stakes and the path forward. Episode Highlights: Uncovered: Trillions of dollars in mineral deposits and the U.S. states poised to become richer than Dubai Why these mineral discoveries could spark a new era of American economic dominance How the Trump administration is cutting red tape and blocking China from controlling America's critical resources

On this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano is joined by Stefano Forte, President of the New York Young Republican Club, to discuss the surge of political enthusiasm among young conservatives. Forte explains how the NYYRC is growing rapidly in one of the bluest states in the country and why young people, especially following the pandemic, are rejecting the radical leftist agenda. They also explore how Republicans are gaining ground in deep-blue cities, the disconnect of establishment GOP figures stuck in the past, and what the party must do to capitalize on the momentum. The conversation touches on Trump, grassroots organizing, and the urgency of political courage in today's culture war. Episode Highlights: Why young conservatives are energized and organizing in blue strongholds like New York How establishment Republicans still underestimate how far left Democrats have gone What the GOP must do to secure victories beyond 2024 and win over disaffected voters  

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the “One Big Beautiful Bill” that just passed the House and now goes to the Senate through budget reconciliation. While the bill offers some middle-class tax relief, work requirements, and border enforcement, it fails on fiscal responsibility, limited government, and bureaucratic overreach. Professor Giordano exposes how the bill expands federal power, increases spending, and continues rewarding the same agencies that have abused their authority. He makes it clear that real reform is essential and getting back to the principles of fiscal responsibility and limited government is the real way to usher in the next golden age of America. Episode Highlights: Why Congress hasn't passed a real budget since 1997 and how reconciliation is being abused The good: No tax on tips or overtime, Trump tax cuts extended, border wall funded, work requirements imposed for some entitlement programs like Medicaid and SNAP The bad and ugly: Debt ceiling hike with no reform, departments and agencies continue to see funding increases, and continued bureaucratic bloat

Fox News anchor Julie Banderas joins Professor Nick Giordano to discuss her new children's book, A Monumental Mistake. This timely story that teaches kids the importance of respecting history, traditions, and each other in an increasingly divided America. But this episode doesn't stop there. Julie and Nick expose the media's complicity in the conspiracy to cover up former President Biden's cognitive decline, as Democrat insiders and legacy journalists rush to publish self-serving books to enrich themselves. This is a powerful conversation about the cultural rot in our society, the collapse of trust in the press, and what it will take to restore honesty and accountability in American life. Episode Highlights: Julie Banderas explains how A Monumental Mistake teaches kids to respect history and warns of the dangers of erasing America's past. A breakdown of how Democrat insiders and media elites conspired to cover up Biden's decline, and why they're scrambling to rewrite the narrative. Why trust in journalism has collapsed, and how the media's self-inflicted wounds have exposed a deeper crisis in America.  

Why the FBI Remains Broken Despite Trump, Patel & Bongino In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down President Trump's visit to the Middle East and what it means for global power dynamics. From boxing in Iran and reversing Biden's foreign policy failures to blunting China's growing influence and reigniting the Abraham Accords, Trump is making it clear that America is back as the global leader on the world stage. Professor Giordano dives into the strategic, economic, and ideological implications of this trip, including the $1.4 trillion investment into U.S. companies and the lingering questions about Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11. Is this the beginning of a lasting peace, or just another geopolitical gamble? Episode Highlights: How Trump's Middle East visit isolates Iran as the Shia Crescent has been broken The $1.4 trillion investment in American companies and the rollback of Biden's AI export ban Why radical Islam, 9/11 truths, and national security threats still shape U.S.-Middle East relations
