Podcasts about Scalise

In this next installment of American Potential, host David From shares a timely conversation featuring House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) and Fox News contributor and Americans for Prosperity Advisory Council member Guy Benson, recorded at the AFP Freedom Embassy in Washington, D.C. Scalise breaks down the House-passed reconciliation bill designed to lock in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA)—a move aimed at preventing a $4.5 trillion tax hike scheduled for 2025. The legislation would secure tax relief for families, protect small businesses, eliminate taxes on tips and overtime, restore bonus depreciation, and make the 199A small business deduction permanent. The bill also features aggressive mandatory spending reforms, work requirements in Medicaid and SNAP, border security investments, and energy production measures, echoing the agenda backed by voters in the last election. This episode offers an inside look at the high-stakes legislative battle to keep more money in Americans' pockets—and keep the economy growing.

In this revealing episode of Gangland Wire, retired intelligence detective Gary Jenkins sits down with Dave Grosky, a man who spent over a decade inside federal prisons—and came out with a story unlike any other. From FCI Loretto to Morgantown to Milan, Dave's journey through the prison system introduced him to a cast of characters that included notorious organized crime figures—none more compelling than Chicago mobster Jerry Scalise. Dave opens up about the realities of prison life, shattering the myth of so-called "white-collar prisons." He recalls how he started off flying under the radar, eventually becoming the go-to jailhouse lawyer who helped fellow inmates with their legal battles. His insider knowledge of the prison legal system offers rare insights into the inner workings of federal institutions and the complex struggles inmates face daily. The heart of this episode centers on Dave's six-year friendship with Jerry Scalise, a former Chicago Outfit member and mastermind behind high-profile heists—including the infamous Graff Jewelry store robbery in London. Dave paints a surprising portrait of Scalise, describing him as intelligent, generous, and deeply respected behind bars. Despite Jerry's criminal history, his actions inside prison—mentoring others, offering legal guidance, and preparing inmates for life after release—reveal a more nuanced, human side of the mobster. We also revisit some of Jerry's most notorious exploits, including the legendary Marlboro Diamond heist. The fate of that diamond still remains a mystery, and Dave offers a few tongue-in-cheek theories of where it might be hiding today. Beyond the stories of crime and camaraderie, Dave speaks candidly about the psychological toll of long-term incarceration and the steep challenges of reentering society—especially in a post-pandemic world. His reflections reveal a broken system where few resources exist to support real rehabilitation, leaving many former inmates at risk of falling back into old patterns. This episode offers more than just mob tales and prison anecdotes—it's a raw, thought-provoking look at crime, punishment, and the long road to redemption. Subscribe to get gangster stories weekly.

And I have a man here on the Zoom call that Dave Grosky, that Dave spent time with Jerry Scalise. He got a hold of me through LinkedIn, and he said, hey, I was in the penitentiary with Jerry Scalise, and he's a good guy. And I said, yeah, I'd love to tell his story. I said, can you get him to get on my show? Well, they can't get him to get on my show because I know Jerry's out and he's somewhere. I don't know where he is. I think he's in Chicago, but I don't know. And his old rap partner, Art Rachel's out. And Dave has met both those guys and other mob guys because he was in penitentiary with several of them. So Dave, welcome. I really appreciate you responding on the LinkedIn. Well, Gary, it's a pleasure. And, uh, yeah, I mean, I, uh, I was, uh, in several federal prisons for almost 11 years. I began at FCI Loretto in 2008 and there, there were some Gambinos and a variety of mob guys. I never really got to know them there. Well, I was, you know, I was new to prison, so I was really keeping quiet.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, who represents Louisiana's 1st Congressional District and is the author of Back in the Game: One Gunman, Countless Heroes, and the Fight for My Life, joined The Guy Benson Show today for a wide-ranging conversation live from AFP's Freedom Embassy. Scalise pushed back on media claims that Trump's reconciliation bill is "dead," pointing to continued votes and deal-making in the House. He also defended Trump's tax cuts, arguing they don't benefit the wealthy but instead protect working Americans, and made clear that Medicare reforms would only impact those who are able to work but choose not to. Scalise said Democrats are once again revealing their true colors by rooting for tax hikes on everyday Americans, while Republicans fight to ease that burden.

Pastor Randy emphasized the importance of recognizing God's timing, testing, and trust in our lives through the story of Jesus' first miracle at the wedding at Cana. He explained that Jesus still cares about our everyday struggles and will provide deliverance, even in seemingly trivial matters like running out of wine. Randy encouraged the congregation to trust God's process, reminding them that testing reveals and refines our faith, and true miracles occur when we obey God's commands, even if they don't make sense at the moment. Ultimately, he called on everyone to deepen their relationship with Jesus, surrender their burdens, and embrace the transformative power of faith.Thank you for tuning into today's message at Bold City Church!

While the White House and Republicans spent the week touting the accomplishments of the President's first 100 days, many of the items in Trump's agenda have yet to be enacted. That's where the GOP-led Congress comes in. Congressional Republicans continue to work towards passing the "one big, beautiful bill" that includes many of the President's key priorities, including funding for border security, fossil fuel production, and the extension of the Trump tax cuts. Earlier this week, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) joined FOX News Rundown Host Dave Anthony to outline lawmakers' next steps, detail the key elements of the “big, beautiful bill," and explain why he believes its passage is critical for America's economic health. Rep. Scalise also discussed President Trump's first 100 days and addressed concerns about the administration's tariff strategies. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.

On today's show, a conversation with New Hanover County Commissioner Dane Scalise about taxes and government spending. Scalise recently penned an opinion piece in the Wilmington Business Journal, which we'll have links to on the page, where he laid out a fairly simple argument: if property values are going up, taxes should go down. So we invited him to the studio to unpack that idea, and get into some of the granular details of the county's budgeting process — including where Scalise would like to trim the budget, and where he'd like to spend more.

In his sermon, Pastor Randy highlights the significant role that words play in shaping our identities, relationships, and ultimately our lives. He emphasizes that our words possess the power of life and death, affecting not only how we perceive ourselves but also how we interact with others. Randy encourages the congregation to practice clear communication in their relationships and to recognize the difference between mere talking and meaningful dialogue. Ultimately, he reminds everyone that the most powerful words come from God, and by leaning on His truth, we can find sustainability and strength in our lives.Thank you for tuning into today's message at Bold City Church!

It's Casual Friday! Emma is joined by Noah Kulwin, co-host of the Blowback podcast, to round up a chaotic week in news. First, Emma runs through updates on Israel's impossible order to Gazans, rising death numbers, and continuing war crimes, as well as the US reneging on Iran, Bob Menendez's corruption, labor action, climate change, and more, before parsing through the explicitly genocidal rhetoric coming from the top of Israeli and US politics. Noah Kulwin then parses through Israel's ongoing siege of Gaza, including an impossible evacuation order, the complete lack of symmetry in the Israel-Palestine relationship, and the total control of Israel's apartheid system. After touching on Israel's knowledge of an impending attack, Noah and Emma discuss the severe (and unsurprising) failure of Israel's attempt to beat Palestine into submission, before wrapping up with the dramatic double standards for pro-Palestine and pro-Israel stances in the media. Emma concludes the free half with a quick update on the rise and fall of the theoretical nomination of Steve Scalise to House Speakership, and the increasing bad blood within the GOP. And in the Fun Half: Emma watches British journalist Owen Jones attempt to fend off a British MP's relentless apartheid apologia, looks back on Noam Chomsky's statements on the asymmetry of Israel-Palestine relations, and talks with Ulysses from Cincinnati about a new outsider candidate in the 2024 election. El from Toronto explores the role of conscription in Israel's project of genocide, Karine Jean-Pierre calls anti-genocide rhetoric “repugnant” on behalf of Joe Biden, and Nathan from the South East discusses his perspective on the troubled teen industry. Matt Walsh finally has some thoughts on queer childhood, and Mike from Brooklyn discusses solidarity action with Palestine, plus, your calls and IMs!

The situation in the Middle East continues to escalate as Israel launches attacks on Gaza. Reports indicate that Israel is facing another attack from its north. What we know for sure is that the situation will continue to get worse. In a disgusting display, there have been numerous rallies and shows of support from Americans for Hamas, the terrorists who just attacked Israel. Look no farther than Michigan, where a massive pro-Palestine rally was held celebrating the Hamas attacks. Anyone siding with Hamas sides with evil and supports genocidal terrorists. If you think this situation isn't coming directly to America, Border Patrol agents reportedly have stopped thousands of “special interest aliens” from the Middle East at the southern border. Folks, you need to be prepared because our enemies are pouring in unchecked and in numbers that should concern everyone. Republicans voted to nominate Steve Scalise for speaker of the House, and it appears he will be taking the job, as Jim Jordan supports Scalise for speaker. Will he be an upgrade from Kevin McCarthy? The Biden administration has failed to remove 99% of illegal immigrants released into the U.S. since 2021. Clearly, the only solution to this problem is a round of rapid deportations.

Business in the U.S. House of Representatives has come to a standstill after Kevin McCarthy was removed as speaker Tuesday. Fallout has been messy, to say the least. We’ll get into what this historic moment could mean for the health of our democracy. Plus, some jobs are more at risk of being automated by AI than others. And NASA astronauts on the Artemis III mission will head to the moon in style, with a little help from Prada. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Playbook PM: Jordan and Scalise make their moves” from Politico “Vote to oust McCarthy as speaker is a warning sign for democracy, scholars say” from The Washington Post “ChatGPT provided better customer service than his staff. He fired them.” from The Washington Post “Malaria vaccine big advance against major child killer” from BBC News “Prada to Help Design Spacesuits for NASA Moon Mission” from The Wall Street Journal Got a question for the hosts?

In a video obtained by Blaze Media, a Capitol Police officer assigned to the protective detail of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on January 6, 2021, appears to have given false testimony about his whereabouts during a key encounter with members of the Oath Keepers.
