On this episode of American Potential, host David From talks with Senator Jon Husted of Ohio about one of the most urgent—and least addressed—threats facing America: the out-of-control federal debt and the lack of any requirement to balance the federal budget. Sen. Husted explains why nearly every state, including Ohio, must balance its budget while Washington continues deficit spending that has produced a $38 trillion national debt and over $1 trillion in annual interest payments—more than the entire budget of nearly every nation on earth. He shares why past balanced budget efforts have failed, how his Principles-Based Balanced Budget Amendment would work, and why a 10-year runway and a two-thirds vote for emergency deficit spending make his approach both realistic and necessary. The Senator also breaks down the connection between federal overspending, inflation, higher interest rates, and the affordability crisis hitting families nationwide. He explains why Americans across the political spectrum are ready for fiscal discipline—if they can trust Congress to actually follow through. A must-listen for anyone concerned about America's financial future—and what it will take to secure it for generations to come.

Credit Card Interest Rate Caps Would Harm Low-Income Borrowers: Colleague Veronique de Rugy criticizes proposals by Senators Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez to cap credit card interest rates at 10 percent, arguing price controls will force companies to reduce risk, ultimately denying credit to the low-income borrowers the bill aims to protect SP 1954.

Gavin Newsom hates when politicians lie. So I'm guessing he hates himself? And what of Marjorie Taylor Greene who blasted Republican men in Congress? The REAL MTG has emerged. And just in time to hit the Leftist talk circuitThe self-described "rank and file Republican woman" pulled the gender cardPres Trump said that MTG called him 3X a day. He said he doesn't speak to his wife that much these days. He went on to call her a low IQ person.

Iowa's U.S. Senators voted for the health care plan that would provide health savings accounts instead of ACA tax credits. Iowa state leaders talk about the expected deficit for next year. And how are some states stepping up for animals that are losing federal protections?

Why did an ad urging U.S. troops not to break the law make President Donald Trump so angry that he practically called for Senator Mark Kelly's head? The retired Navy captain can't answer that. Instead, the senator is focused on investigating the controversies that have gripped the military in the past month. Harry and the senator dig into what makes Pete Hegseth such an unfit Defense Secretary, the dangers the potentially illegal U.S. strikes in the Caribbean pose for American service members, and why the fallout looks like it might bring some genuine accountability for the administration.

Former U.S. Senator, former university president, and Senior Fellow at AEI Ben Sasse, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss a few stories surrounding falling education standards and collegiate athletics. One story involves new University of California San Diego report showing incoming freshmen lacking basic middle-school-level math skills, which he says reflects a much deeper national problem in education.

1. European Union vs. Elon Musk and Free Speech The EU fined Elon Musk’s platform X (formerly Twitter) $140 million under the Digital Services Act (DSA) for failing to comply with transparency and moderation requirements. Ben and the Senator argue this is an attack on free speech, claiming the EU wants to impose censorship globally, including on American platforms. They highlight a letter from the EU in August 2024 urging Musk to censor content related to Donald Trump’s interview, framing it as an attempt to silence political discourse. The discussion emphasizes the contrast between U.S. First Amendment protections and Europe’s regulatory approach, warning of potential ripple effects on American free speech. There’s a call for the Trump administration to retaliate with sanctions against the EU, such as tariffs, to prevent foreign influence on U.S. speech norms. 2. Tucker Carlson’s Ties to Qatar Tucker Carlson’s visit to Qatar, where he interviewed the Prime Minister during the Doha Forum. Ben and Senator Cruz criticize Carlson for allegedly failing to ask tough questions about Qatar’s: Support for Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. Funding of anti-American and anti-Semitic propaganda, including protests on U.S. campuses. Lobbying efforts in Washington and influence campaigns targeting conservative figures. Restrictive policies on women’s rights. They express concern over Carlson reportedly buying property in Qatar, framing it as aligning with a regime hostile to U.S. interests. The commentary portrays Carlson as sympathetic to authoritarian leaders (similar to his interviews with Putin and Iran’s president), undermining American values and Trump’s foreign policy.

Washington is moving fast, and the entire crypto market is now in the crosshairs. Senators are preparing a sweeping new crypto market-structure bill, with major bank CEOs lobbying behind the scenes to shape the rules in their favor. The CFTC just launched a new digital assets oversight pilot alongside fresh fraud charges, while the SEC closed a two-year case against a Bitcoin developer without action. Add in Texas facing backlash over its Bitcoin reserve and the ECB defending its digital euro, and the regulatory landscape is shifting in real time. Today we break down how this new bill could redefine the future of Bitcoin, stablecoins, exchanges, and the entire U.S. crypto industry.

Senator Elissa Slotkin and Retired Major General Paul Eaton join the Daily Beast's Executive Editor Hugh Dougherty to chart the growing alarm inside the national-security world over Trump's increasingly cult-like demands for loyalty. Slotkin, a former CIA officer and Pentagon veteran, lays out how flattery, grievance, and improvisation have replaced strategy in Trump's orbit—leaving the military to navigate chaos, not command. Eaton, one of the Army's most outspoken former generals, explains why Trump's impulses and misinformation pose what he bluntly calls a threat to U.S. readiness. From battlefield myths to political pressure on the ranks, Hugh presses both guests: What happens if Trump once again tries to run the military like it's his personal force? Hosted on Acast.

As a California congressman, Adam Schiff was the lead manager during the first impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump. He later served on the January 6th committee. Trump has castigated him as “Shifty Schiff” and demanded that the Justice Department investigate him. In a conversation with David Remnick, Schiff discusses the current inquiry into his mortgage by federal authorities; the Supreme Court's primary role in enabling this Administration; and why he thinks the rule of law in America is “hanging by a thread.” Unlike some Democrats, Schiff is not sanguine that the release of the Epstein files will damage Trump politically. “If there are ruinous things in the files . . . Bondi and company will make sure they never reach the public eye,” Schiff says. But also, “I think he's almost impervious to dirt.” The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

We begin a special two-part series with Pete Souza, the former Official White House Photographer who holds one of the most unique resumes in history. In Part 1, we trace his journey right back to the beginning, starting with his early days working for Kansas newspapers, how he broke into photojournalism, and the unexpected opportunity that led to his first stint in the White House, documenting President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. Pete shares great stories from the Reagan years (yes, even about Michael Jackson) and we follow his career up to the assignment that put him in the path of a young, then still unknown Senator named Barack Obama. Next week in Part 2, we dive into the emotional reality of documenting the world's most powerful man every day, we get some full stories behind iconic pictures, and follow Pete as he transitions from White House observer to a best-selling author and outspoken advocate. *****

Recent attacks & immigration/vetting Ben and Senator Cruz link a shooting of National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C. to failures in vetting Afghan nationals admitted under “Operation Allies Welcome,” asserting a broader pattern of violence from inadequately vetted immigrants. They cite a TikTok bomb-threat arrest in Texas and connect these incidents to Biden administration policies. Border security and terrorism risk They argue that an “open” southern border has allowed individuals on terror watch lists to enter the U.S., warning of sleeper cells and describing human trafficking and violent crime as predictable outcomes of lax enforcement. Critique of Democratic officials & protests The conversation criticizes Rep. Rashida Tlaib for not condemning “Death to America” chants reportedly heard at a Dearborn, Michigan rally, framing this as emblematic of ideological refusal to confront radical Islamic terrorism. AI: geopolitical race & domestic skepticism The senator argues the U.S. must “win” the AI race against China to ensure global AI reflects American values. They note polling shows public anxiety about AI (job loss, distrust), and discuss local resistance to data center construction, energy needs, and the prospect of white‑collar job displacement. Auto policy: CAFE standards and EV mandates Ben and the Senator praise actions attributed to “the President” (portrayed as Donald Trump) to rescind tailpipe emissions standards, zero out CAFE standards via a “one big beautiful bill,” and roll back EV mandates—arguing these moves lower car prices, improve safety (heavier/steel cars vs. “plastic”), and boost U.S. auto jobs. They reference planned Senate Commerce Committee hearings with major automakers and Tesla. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

After the shocking revelations about Epstein's crimes and his death, Senators have repeatedly clashed over who has blocked or delayed release of critical documents. Blackburn has publicly pressed for full disclosure — demanding that unredacted versions of Epstein's private-jet flight logs, his associates' names, and records from his estate be subpoenaed. She argues that the logs, along with what some call Epstein's "little black book" of contacts, are essential to expose the full scope of his network and bring justice to victims.Durbin, who chaired the relevant Senate committee while many of these requests were made, has pushed back — claiming he asked for written requests for the logs and pointing to procedural issues when Republicans tried to force votes. He has denied that the committee “blocked” Blackburn's efforts, stating that no formal subpoena request meeting the committee's rules was submitted. Blackburn has fired back, accusing him of lying and of deliberately stonewalling the release despite repeated written appeals. The tension has turned public, with each side accusing the other of obstructing transparency as Epstein-related revelations continue to surface.to contact me:bobbycapuccI@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this urgent episode ripped from the top political and national security headlines, host Paul Rieckhoff talks with the only truly Independent Senator and member of the Senate Armed Services Committee: Maine's Angus King. King returns to the show to answer tough questions, share the latest from inside the Senate, and break down Hegseth's "kill everybody" directive amid shifting stories on the strikes that killed dozens, including survivors in the water—explicitly cited as illegal in the DoD Law of War Manual.  Paul presses King on the need for public hearings, Admiral Bradley's pending testimony about strike orders, the mysterious resignation of Southern Command Commander, Navy Admiral Holsey—and Hegseth's calendar at the time of the strikes, questioning his leadership as Venezuela tensions escalate with U.S. naval buildup. King slams Congress's abdication of war powers, Trump's "garbage" insults toward Somalis, and the purge of Pentagon legal experts, urging independents to hold the line for accountability. This is a conversation with a powerful, honorable and pivotal Senator that is at the center of all it. The lone independent Senator that can be a unique bridge to real bi-partisan accountability.  Millions of Americans—and especially Independent Americans—are looking to King now to meet this moment.
