In this episode of John Solomon Reports, guest host Ben Whedon sits down with Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson to discuss the current legislative landscape surrounding election integrity and immigration reform. Senator Johnson shares insights on the growing momentum behind the SAFE Act, a comprehensive Election Integrity Bill that has faced challenges in Congress. He emphasizes the overwhelming public support for voter ID laws and critiques the Democratic Party's stance on election security, arguing that their policies create opportunities for fraud.As the conversation unfolds, Johnson proposes a new legislative initiative called the Secure America Act, aimed at securing elections, borders, and taxpayer funds. He discusses the potential need to eliminate the filibuster to pass this crucial legislation, expressing his concerns about the Democrats' willingness to do so when they regain power.We also delve into the contentious issue of immigration enforcement, with Johnson highlighting the implications of the current open border policies and their impact on crime and public safety. He addresses the challenges faced by ICE in Minnesota and the broader consequences of illegal immigration on communities across America.Senator Johnson reflects on the upcoming midterms and the potential for Republicans to gain electoral advantages in the 2030 reapportionment process. He stresses the importance of focusing on popular legislation that resonates with the American public, advocating for a straightforward approach to reform that prioritizes security and accountability.Next, for FBI agent and author Chris Piehota discusses the recent shake-up within the FBI under the leadership of Kash Patel. With a wave of unexpected firings and reassignments, particularly among field directors in key locations like Atlanta and New York, we explore the implications of these changes on the Bureau's operations and culture.Piehota shares insights into Patel's mission to identify and remove agents who may have allowed political biases to influence their investigative work. As the FBI seeks to realign its focus towards operational effectiveness, we delve into the historical context of personnel shifts within the agency and the potential impact on its overall structure.We also examine the controversial departure of former Deputy Director Dan Bongino, assessing the dynamics of his role and the changes in authority under Patel's leadership. With the introduction of co-deputy directors, we discuss how this split might affect decision-making and operational clarity within the FBI.As we navigate through the complexities of the Bureau's internal reforms, Piehota emphasizes the importance of transparency and communication from Director Patel. He argues that the public deserves to understand how these changes will enhance the FBI's capabilities, particularly in addressing national security threats alongside street-level crime.Finally, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton joins and discusses the ongoing challenges faced in the realm of FOIA litigation against the Department of Justice. Fitton shares insights on the current administration's handling of transparency issues, particularly in light of the recent changes in leadership at the DOJ. He expresses his surprise at the continued lack of responsiveness from the DOJ, regardless of who is in charge, highlighting the persistent barriers that hinder the release of crucial information.We delve into specific cases, such as the prosecution of Peter Navarro and the ongoing investigations into the alleged weaponization of government agencies. Fitton emphasizes the bureaucratic hurdles and the 'deep state of secrecy' that often leads to litigation being the only recourse for obtaining public information. He discusses the implications of the DOJ's reluctance to disclose documents related to high-profile cases, including the infamous Hunter Biden laptop, and the broader ramifications of this lack of transparency for American citizens.The conversation turns to the systemic issues within the FOIA process itself, as Fitton outlines the lengthy and often frustrating journey of obtaining documents through legal channels. He argues for the necessity of reforming the FOIA system to ensure greater accountability and responsiveness from government agencies. Fitton also reflects on the overwhelming scale of fraud within federal programs, suggesting that citizen activists and independent media play a crucial role in uncovering the truth as government agencies struggle to manage their responsibilities.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Despite the closure of U.S. horse slaughter plants nearly two decades ago, tens of thousands of American horses are still exported every year to Canada and Mexico for slaughter. The practice persists quietly, fueled by policy loopholes, weak enforcement, and public misunderstanding—while horses who once served as companions, athletes, and working partners pay the price. In this episode of the Animal Wellness Podcast, we're joined by Thalia Fischer, founder and director of All Seated in a Barn, a California-based equine rescue dedicated to pulling horses from the slaughter pipeline and giving them a second chance through rescue, rehabilitation, training, and adoption. We're also joined by Wayne Pacelle, president of Animal Wellness Action, who brings a national policy perspective to the conversation—explaining why Congress has repeatedly failed to halt live exports of horses for slaughter and what it will take to finally close that loophole through legislation like the SAFE Act. Together, Thalia and Wayne connect the dots between what happens at auctions and kill pens, the grueling cross-border transport of horses, and the political choices that allow this trade to continue. This episode explores the emotional realities of horse rescue, the scale of the slaughter crisis, and the concrete actions listeners can take to help protect America's horses. Topics covered include: How horses end up in the export-to-slaughter pipeline What equine rescues face on the front lines The welfare concerns tied to long-distance transport and slaughter Why live exports persist despite public opposition How advocacy and legislation can end horse slaughter for good If you care about horses—and about aligning U.S. law with our values—this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

In this episode, Dr. Karen Litzy discusses the critical issue of falls among the elderly with Nikesh Patel, PT, a physical therapist and executive director of the Alliance for Physical Therapy Quality and Innovation. They explore alarming statistics on falls, the need for proactive prevention strategies, and the SAFE Act, which aims to address fall risks and improve the quality of life for older adults. The conversation emphasizes the importance of advocacy and the role of physical therapists in preventing falls and promoting independence in aging individuals. Takeaways Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death in people over 65. · Many falls are preventable, and physical therapists play a key role in prevention. · The healthcare system is often reactive rather than proactive regarding fall prevention. · The SAFE Act aims to provide fall risk assessments through physical therapy. · Therapists are underpaid and need to advocate for better compensation. · The SAFE Act could be the first legislation to include therapists in preventive care under Medicare. · Advocacy for the SAFE Act requires storytelling and personal experiences. · The economic impact of falls extends beyond healthcare costs to workforce participation. · Aging does not mean losing independence; proactive measures can help maintain it. · The importance of persistence in advocacy efforts for healthcare legislation. Chapters 00:00 Understanding the Fall Crisis in America · 09:59 Proactive Approaches to Fall Prevention · 20:10 The SAFE Act: A Legislative Solution · 29:56 Advocacy and the Role of Physical Therapists · More About Nick: Working at the intersection of clinical care, public policy, and prevention.

Davos doesn't matter if elections don't. That's the blunt reality. In this explosive segment, the focus shifts from global power plays to the one issue that determines everything: photo ID and proof of citizenship to vote. The SAFE Act has passed the House — but it's being blocked in the Senate. Trump and Elon Musk are sounding the alarm, while Republican leadership stalls. If this fails before November, the growth, the security, the wins — all of it ends. This isn't politics anymore. It's the survival of the Republic. ⚠️
Nothing less than an absolute brawl at Davos. President Trump storms the globalist stronghold with a message that shatters alliances, exposes hypocrisy, and forces the world to choose sides. Empty chairs. Furious elites. Trade deals ripped apart. From the UN and NATO to China, Greenland, energy collapse in Europe, election integrity at home, and the SAFE Act showdown in Washington — this episode lays out why the old world order is collapsing and what replaces it. This wasn't diplomacy. This was a line in the sand.

Send us a textOn this episode, I'm joined by United States Senator Richard Blumenthal. With the push for college sports reform heating up in Congress, Senator Blumenthal breaks down why the SAFE Act—and not the SCORE Act— is the right path forward for college athletics. He describes the NCAA as an abject failure in protecting athletes' rights, and explains how the SAFE Act establishes a basic floor for athletes' rights and puts enforcement directly in their hands, while the SCORE Act would give even more power back to the NCAA. We also dive into the Sports Broadcasting Act, potential employee status for college athletes, and the recent sports betting scandals. Here we go.Thank you for listening!

What can you do to help stop our horses in this country from going to slaughter? Horses from every discipline, age, and background are being shipped for slaughter every year. In 2024 alone, 20,000 horses were killed. Many people do not realize how easily a Thoroughbred, a child's lesson pony, a show horse, or even a mustang can be sold at auction and bought by kill buyers. In this episode, I talk with filmmaker and advocate Ashley Avis, creator of Black Beauty and Wild Beauty, about her newest project: The Lost Horses, a national campaign designed to help finally pass the SAFE Act. Ashley shares how her work documenting wild horse roundups led her into the undercover world of Texas auctions, where she witnessed the brutality of the slaughter pipeline firsthand. Her team is now using cinematic storytelling, celebrity-voiced PSAs, and coordinated outreach to bring widespread attention to this issue.

Another one has bitten the dust. Another H/C has been fired by a big time college. There is a very interesting twist to this story. The interim Coach story is a college legend for all the wrong reasons. One of the P-2 Conferences is looking into Private Equity for more money. They believe there a reason for more of money grab. I explain the reasons good and bad for doing this. The last part of the Podcast was dedicated to going into the the Dueling bills in the House and the Senate. The S.C.OR.E. Act, Safe Act and the TV Act. Why do we need that these laws or do we. Who is effected by these proposed laws. I explain it all the conflicts and differences.

On Sunday, Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey talked about how they expected Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman to be fired in the near future. By the time the episode was released, Arkansas had indeed fired Pittman, who was in his 6th season. Former Arkansas head coach, and current offensive coordinator, Bobby Petrino, has been named interim head coach and he made it clear that he is interested in removing that interim title. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss why this may be a more desirable job than it appears and who might be a fit for the new era of Arkansas football. They also debate if Petrino has a chance at becoming the full-time head coach and how Arkansas can have a program turnaround similar to the one Ole Miss is having right now. Later, we get Ross' Congressional Minute as he explains the new SAFE Act that is being introduced into the Senate. This is a similar act to the already introduced SCORE Act, but there are some key differences. Ross explains the differences between the acts and what they mean for the future of college athletics. The guys discuss which is a better act and where the discussions in Congress will go from here. Lastly, the Week 5 slate in college football was jam-packed with marquee matchups. However, Week 6 is lacking in comparison. The guys discuss the disparity between various weeks of the college season and Godfrey proposes the solution of a central body that does all of the scheduling in college football. Is this something that could actually happen in the future?Join us on today's College Football Enquirer(3:57) - Arkansas' search for a new head coach(30:38) - Ross' Congressional Minute - Explaining the SAFE Act(52:26) - Centralizing scheduling for all of college football Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

In this episode, FSA speaks with Santa Rosa County Sheriff Bob Johnson and Angela Nandin about the Florida SAFE Act which created a voluntary “SAFE” designation to their vehicle record. That designation alerts law enforcement during a stop that someone in the vehicle may have a condition—such as autism, PTSD or a traumatic brain injury—that can affect how they respond to commands. The goal: safer interactions, better understanding and stronger trust between officers and the people they serve. Sheriff Johnson and Angela Nandin break down how the law works, why it matters and what it means for Florida communities.

While Missouri House Republicans are coming big wins last week and another House GOP supermajority in January, one of its members says the Speaker-designee should not be Speaker. State Rep. Justin Sparks (R-Wildwood) appeared live on 939 the Eagle's "Gary Nolan show", telling listeners that House Speaker-designee Jon Patterson (R-Lee's Summit) was elected during an informal caucus vote a year ago, where the freshman GOP candidates who were elected to the House last week did not vote. Rep. Sparks, who was first elected to the Missouri House in 2022, slammed Patterson on-air on initiative petition reform, guns and transgender issues. Representative Sparks tells Mr. Nolan that the next speaker must be ready to tackle Amendment Three, adding that Patterson voted against the SAFE Act, which involved transgender youth. Representative Sparks also criticized the Missouri House Republican Campaign Committee (HRCC) during the interview:

Should we criticize the Church? What about its leaders? If so, how and when would we do it? Megan Basham, an author and reporter for the Daily Wire, joins The Narrative podcast to answer these questions in the context of her new book, Shepherds for Sale. Along with co-hosts CCV President Aaron Baer, Policy Director David Mahan, and Communications Director Mike Andrews, Megan discusses the key decision between admitting misunderstanding and compounding foolishness, how the secular left has strategically coopted universal truths of the Gospel, and how Church leaders should respond to breaking news and crises like COVID. Before the conversation, Aaron, David, and Mike uncover how the children's hospitals' gender clinics have changed following the enactment of the SAFE Act, and how the media is ignoring the savings school choice is providing Ohio. More about Megan Basham Megan Basham is a culture reporter for the Daily Wire and the author of the new book Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda and Beside Every Successful Man: A Woman's Guide to Having It All.

Only You Can Save Owner Financing in TexasIt's a sad day when a regulatory body in Texas is working against property and business owners to make it extremely difficult to get an owner-financing transaction done. That's what it going on right now with the Texas Savings & Mortgage Lending Department (which handles licensing issues for mortgage companies and loan officers) which is proposing rule changes that would adversely affect your ability to sell your property, land, or business on seller financing.Link to the Seller Financing Coalition & Letter CampaignWatch the original video HERE!Currently, numerous proposed rule changes would harm future Texas home buyers, particularly those who are currently not well served by the financial services industry due to demographic and economic factors. These proposed rule changes will also hurt numerous small business owners and private home sellers. Two examples of harmful rule changes are:A. The Department's new regulation requiring that all RMLO (Registered Mortgage Loan Originator) agents work for a bank or mortgage company harms Texas citizens in multiple ways.1. RMLOs can no longer be self-employed despite their own efforts to become licensed professionals.2. All prospective buyers must now seek to fit within the narrowing loan requirements imposed by banks and mortgage companies, etc. This denies access to credit to many hard-working people who are a) self-employed, b) buying vacant land, c) have lower incomes, and d) using multi-generational resources to qualify for homeownership loans.3. It means private individuals or small businesses that already own homes or properties cannot hire an RMLO to qualify potential buyers as part of a seller-financing transaction. This prevents such sellers from complying with Dodd-Frank.B. To legally meet the growing demand for non-bank financing on homes and vacant land numerous individuals rely upon seller financing. Private individuals or small businesses in Texas who offer seller-financing for homes or land to other Texans, frequently use independent RMLOs. Using these independent RMLOs protects both the Buyer and the Seller.Given these facts, the following proposed language in “§56.100 Licensing Requirements” is rather harmful.“However, if the lender owns the residential real estate securing the loan and has exceeded the limit for exempt transactions as provided by Finance Code §156.202(a-1) (3), the lender must be licensed under Finance Code Chapter 156, regardless of whether the lender has secured the services of an originator as provided by this subsection.”This proposed verbiage goes beyond the SAFE Act and Dodd-Frank requirements and imposes a harsh “scarcity penalty” on disadvantaged buyers by severely restricting the number of properties that a non-lender seller can sell using seller finance. This harsh and unnecessary restriction on what private citizens in Texas can do (sell) with their own houses and land is unwarranted. In a time of shrinking inventory and rising demand removing assets and liquidity from the market place is harmful to all Texans.Here are some reasons an individual or small business will hire an RMLO as part of a seller-financed transactionA. The RMLO ensures that all Dodd-Frank regulations are followed for both the lender and the borrower (homeowner).B. The RMLO agent makes sure the borrower (homeowner) is economically qualified to buy (has the ability to pay) and understands the specifics of the loan.C. Not using an RMLO allows unsavory lenders to take advantage of naïve borrowers.D. Not using an RMLO may cause individuals or small Texas businesses to unknowingly violate Dodd-Frank and face federal charges and/or penalties that could cause financial duress, or unintentionally destroy and close small Texas businesses.Love the show?
