After losing the White House and control of the Senate in the 2024 election — while facing record-low approval ratings — the Democratic Party is now debating its future leadership and strategy for handling President Donald Trump's second term. While Sen. Cory Booker, D-NJ., recently gained attention with a record-breaking speech, other “rising stars” are vying to lead the Democratic Party. Watch the 22-minute America Speaks video above, where pollster and political analyst Dr. Frank Luntz talks with Democrats about the future of the party and the viability of politicians such as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY., and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss badly needed regulatory relief coming soon from the EPA, Russia rejecting a ceasefire with Ukraine while demanding more concessions, and Pete Buttigieg's decision to skip a U.S. Senate run to focus on a 2028 presidential bid.First, after clarifying a point from Wednesday's podcast, they cheer EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin for targeting several of the most burdensome environmental regulations. Zeldin maintains that these rollbacks will cut costs and ease restrictions on businesses and families without compromising environmental standards.Next, they analyze Russia's refusal to agree to a ceasefire with Ukraine and insisting on more concessions before any serious negotiations. Jim argues that Vladimir Putin wouldn't honor any deal he signs, while Greg asks how President Trump could pressure Russia into reconsidering its position.Finally, they react to reports that former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg won't run for U.S. Senate in Michigan and is instead eyeing a 2028 White House bid. They highlight his lack of achievements and Jim explains why he thinks the Democrats need a very different type of candidate in the next campaign.Please visit our great sponsors:This show is sponsored by BetterHelp.Build your support system, with Betterhelp.

On January 29th, a midair collision between an Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines jet over the Potomac River shocked the nation. The crash killed 67 people and called into question the safety of air traffic control operations. Just a few days following the crash, President Donald Trump placed the blame on DEI initiatives, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, and even the pilot of the Army Black Hawk helicopter. On Tuesday, the preliminary findings from the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation into the tragedy were released. What did that report reveal? Is it still safe to fly? USA TODAY Aviation Reporter Zach Wichter joins The Excerpt to discuss findings from the report.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they analyze President Trump's decision to pause tariffs on Canada, Pete Buttigieg's absurd theory about a deadly air disaster in D.C., and Mayor Karen Bass failing to control protests in Los Angeles.First, they dive into the new U.S.-Canada border security arrangement, which has resulted in a pause of tariffs on both sides. They discuss the potential impact of this agreement and debate whether it could have been reached without the threat of tariffs, or if the public pressure and political environment played a significant role in reaching this deal.Next, they discuss former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg's comments on the deadly air disaster in Washington, D.C. Buttigieg suggested that the Trump administration's offer for federal employees to resign in exchange for eight months of severance might have contributed to the tragic collision between a regional jetliner and an Army Blackhawk helicopter. Jim and Greg explain why they believe this theory is absurd and offer an update on Buttigieg's potential run for Michigan's U.S. Senate seat.Finally, they address Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass failing to confront unruly protests against deportations of illegal immigrants. Despite the protests causing major disruptions to traffic and defacing government buildings, Bass has not taken action to restore order. Jim says this is the latest evidence that Bass is simply incapable of leading the city.Please visit our great sponsors:Betterhelphttps://BetterHelp.com/3MLDiscover your relationship green flags and get 10% off your first month at BetterHelp.com/3MLNetsuitehttps://NetSuite.com/MARTINISee what is next for your business with the CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning free when you go to NetSuite.com/MARTINI.   Omaha Steaks https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3MLGo to https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3ML to subscribe and get 12 FREE burgers, FREE shipping, and an EXTRA 10% OFF for the life of your subscription.

On this episode of the podcast guest host Amanda Head welcomes Arizona Congressman Abe Hamadeh and former Michigan Republican gubernatorial nominee Tudor Dixon.Representative Hamadeh talks about the recent airplane crash near Ronald Reagan International Airport, stressing the need for a full investigation and stronger aviation safety measures. He contrasts President Trump's transparency and decisive leadership with the Biden Administration's secrecy and inaction. Congressman Hamadeh also breaks down the sharp decline in military recruitment under Biden, attributing it to woke policies and vaccine mandates, but remains hopeful for a turnaround under Trump's leadership.The second podcast interview is with Tudor Dixon, who discusses her potential run for the soon-to-be open U.S. Senate seat in the state of Michigan. Dixon highlights Michigan's strong backing for President Trump, citing his massive campaign rallies held in Grand Rapids and Traverse City in the final days of the campaign. The 2022 statewide Republican nominee also didn't hold back on the job performance of Governor Gretchen Whitmer or with former U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg either.Be sure to join John Solomon and Amanda Head every night on their TV news show, "Just The News, No Noise."

[SEGMENT 2-1] Christmas plot 1 Christmas week. What are your plans. Thanks for listening to my show. Hopefully you have the whole family gathered around your phone or computer and you're all listening to Black Santa espouse his political views? I can picture it now. I hope you are with people you love right now or on your way to them. Know how much I care about you all… What I find wild is that even in this time of reflection for most, there are people, ok DEMOCRATS who plot against the country. Imagine being so devious you try to steal money from people, and slip in legislation that allows you to be a known criminal, and the public can do nothing about it. Laws exist now that protect legislators from things that would be crimes for us. And they want MORE! More money and more power. And their rationale is that the peons are living better than most of the citizens of the world, so what another $100 per person matter, or $500 per person… it's amortized over a year. They nickel and dime us to death, and then we get the added tax of inflation. https://www.pgpf.org/programs-and-projects/fiscal-policy/monthly-interest-tracker-national-debt/ $104,497 per person, $266,275 per household…we paid $882B of interest on the debt this year.                                                                                                                       [SEGMENT 2-2] Christmas plot 2 What's ahead for the new year? Well, I know that we are all exuberant, excited about the possibilities of 2025. What role will you play? Is your job over, now that we won the last election? Are you taking a big sigh of relief?! Well stop! There is no relief. Merry Christmas, now back to work!   I ask again, how could anybody not want Elon Musk to look over your organization? I can only think of one guy not wanting this, and that's Jeff Bezos. And frankly, I don't think Bezos would pass up working with Elon Musk. But if Bezos did reject Musk, he'd be the only person who wouldn't want Elon to have a look-see at their organization. Democrats are plotting against Musk as I write this. Look at all the things that Musk solved that Democrats hold near and dear, and yet they plot against him. When I tell you, there is no satisfying Leftists…I GIVE YOU ELON!   Musk exposes inefficiency wherever he goes, so naturally, bureaucrats are sweating. Remember, this is the guy who lands rockets backward and made EVs cool, yet Democrats label him as some existential threat. Headlines scream nonsense like, “Musk backs neo-Nazis” or “Trump taking orders from Elon.” Really? That's your angle? Here's the truth: every great Musk innovation has been met with Leftist skepticism. “He can't do that,” they said. Then he did it—better, faster, and with fewer subsidies than any Democrat-backed boondoggle.[SEGMENT 2-3] Christmas plot 3 - Biden in Review   If Democrats tell the story, Biden was a great president. So what they killed his potential for a second term, that just business. America's Lump of Coal Presidency: A Retrospective on Biden's Policies and Personnel After four years of enduring this administration's bungling, America is ready for a reboot. The excitement around bringing back strong, decisive leadership is palpable. Polls show a yearning for policies that prioritize economic growth, border security, and international respect—not to mention a cabinet that doesn't moonlight as a reality TV cast.   [X] SB – Canadian on Trump v Trudeau US biggest economic and super power the world has seen Strong and fresh mandate Very powerful negotiator     . Thankfully, America seems ready to move on, but let's revisit the "highlights" we're happy to leave behind. 1. Inflation: From Transitory to Titanic Santa didn't leave gifts over the last year, instead he robbed us. Yes, Santa was caught on camera not delivering gifts but stealing them. At least that's what it feels like. Remember when inflation was dismissed as "transitory"? Turns out, it was about as transitory as a fruitcake—no one wanted it, and it stuck around far too long. The Biden administration's war on energy independence and reckless spending ensured that everything from gas to groceries came with a premium price tag. Americans didn't just tighten their belts; they cinched them into corsets. 2. Border Policy: Open for Chaos The southern border's open-door policy made Black Friday crowds look tame. We half-expected to see a "Welcome" mat and complimentary eggnog for all entrants, that's if you can find egg nog given our supply-chain issues which will be discussed later. Millions of illegals crossing under policies that made "catch and release" sound like a fishing tournament, except our fish were drug traffickers, sex traffickers, and terrorists. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas assured us the border was "secure, such a blatant lie I can only imagine Biden's team high-fiving each other after hearing it. Things were so bad on this issue, a Texas border town with 90% Mexicans voted for Trump over 85%. 3. Afghanistan: The Art of the Un-Deal The withdrawal from Afghanistan wasn't just a debacle—it was an international humiliation. President Biden and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin orchestrated a chaotic exit that abandoned American citizens, allies, and billions in military equipment. The world watched as Taliban militants gleefully took victory laps in U.S. helicopters, making it clear that the so-called “adults in the room” weren't even playing the same game. 4. Transportation Troubles When supply chain issues ground the economy to a halt, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was, quite literally, nowhere to be found. On extended paternity leave during a crisis, Buttigieg's absence became symbolic of the administration's approach: absent leadership, delayed solutions, and priorities utterly detached from reality. Empty shelves became the new normal, making us nostalgic for the days when toilet paper was plentiful. Who knew that "just in time" would turn into "maybe next month"?  [SEGMENT 2-4] Christmas plot 4   The US shot down our own F-18. Did you see this story. I joked that the Chinese ordered Biden to do it, as they were gambling in Beijing on whether Xi could get him to do it. Either that or they found another Hunter Biden laptop and decided to have a bit of fun with their puppet. On top of this, we learned that Biden's military doesn't know how many soldiers are in Syria: [X] SB – Defense Spox on number of troops in Syria I'm not surprised given Biden's Secretary of Defense, oh what's his name?   [X] SB – Biden can't remember Secy of Defense name   You remember him, the 2nd highest ranking military man who went AWOL [X] SB – Doocy on Austin   We are days away from ridding ourselves of the worst president in American history, and undoubtedly the worst generation of freaks ever assembled in government. And we get more revelations about Biden's incompetence and inability to function: https://x.com/CollinRugg/status/1870480551171518760   REPORT: Biden made military families of troops k*lled in Afghanistan wait three hours while he “napped” on Air Force One on the tarmac, according to the Daily Mail. According to family members who spoke to the outlet, Biden “couldn't pull it together.” “[Biden] made us wait an extra three hours to receive the bodies of our de*d family members because he couldn't pull it together,” sister of Rylee McCollum, Roice said. Roice added that a military officer told her that Biden was napping on the plane. “Roice said she and others were waiting for Biden to appear when a military officer told her he was napping on his plane,” the Daily Mail reported. “We sat in that office for what seemed like an eternity waiting on the doddering old fool,” said the father of the father of Staff Sgt. Taylor Hoover.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

  Democrats love promising a "peaceful transition of power," but history—and their actions—tell a different story. When Obama handed the reins to Trump, he made a https://theblacksphere.net/2024/11/the-myth-of-obamas-power-a-manufactured-legacy-and-misplaced-allegiance/ while his DOJ quietly sharpened its knives. Four years of investigations, conspiracies, and obstruction later, the Democrats finally ousted Trump using their COVID-19 coup, complete with ballot-stuffing, midnight counting, and media complicity. But their https://theblacksphere.net/2024/11/lets-not-let-democrats-forget-joe-biden/, leaving Biden with the unenviable task of ushering in yet another "peaceful transition"—this time back to Trump. Biden's Legacy of Chaos Let's take stock of what Joe Biden is leaving behind. Start with Bidenflation:- https://finance.yahoo.com/news/national-debt-tops-36-trillion-000208774.html, up $13 trillion since 2020.- Interest rates that https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/inflation-cpi, particularly for small businesses. Families struggling to stretch their dollars farther than a triathlete on a treadmill.- Instead of financing our recent $1.8 trillion federal budget deficit by issuing 10- and 30-year bonds, Janet Yellen has instead https://nypost.com/2024/11/23/business/janet-yellen-exiting-office-leaving-mess-behind-for-trump-team/in a what has been described as “a nakedly political effort to avoid a massive jump in mortgage rates.” Mortgage rates created by Bidenflation, I remind you.Aristotle wrote about “moderation in all things,” but he didn't anticipate Joe Biden or Leftism. Biden's economic policies aren't just unmoderated; they're unhinged. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve is https://ycharts.com/indicators/us_ending_stocks_of_crude_oil_in_the_strategic_petroleum_reserve, energy prices are volatile, and Biden's administration seems to think solar panels is the answer. And what of the military? It's in shambles. Recruitment numbers are dismally low, matched by our stockpile of weapons. We can thank Biden for his proxy war in Ukraine and his failure to manage the Middle East, where Iran and its proxies, including a resurgent Al Qaeda that recently took control of Syria flex their muscles. In short, the world is a much less safe place under Joe Biden.  And then there's the Department of Justice, which under Biden and Obama transformed from an institution of law to a political cudgel. Public trust in the DOJ is at an all-time low, but Biden isn't addressing the problem—he's doubling down, reportedly planning to pardon key players in his administration to shield them from accountability. The Irony of Democrat Spending If Biden's administration were a business, it would be Enron. Trillions of dollars are unaccounted for across multiple agencies. The CHIPS Act and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) were boondoggles, diverting taxpayer money to pet projects that failed to deliver. Even Biden admitted the IRA was less about reducing inflation and more about funding the global climate agenda. John Podesta, the man controlling https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny/environment/2024/01/31/john-podesta-will-take-over-for-john-kerry-as-the-us-special-climate-change-envoy, might as well be handing out blank checks at a lobbyist convention. Let's not forget Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who burned $7.5 billion on eight electric vehicle charging stations. That's a cost-per-station that would make Elon Musk burst out laughing—or crying. And Kamala Harris, armed with $42 billion for https://www.politico.com/news/2024/09/18/senate-republicans-ding-harris-role-as-broadband-czar-00179855, has accomplished as much as she did at the border: absolutely nothing. Funding the Resistance? A recent exposé from Project Veritas revealed EPA adviser Brent Efron https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CblV6EwzKxg about funneling money to tribes, nonprofits, and states as quickly as possible before Trump's team could intervene. “It feels like we're on the Titanic and throwing gold bars off the edge,” he said. For once, the metaphor fits: Democrats are sinking, but they're determined to take everyone else down with them. “We gave them the money because it was harder if it was a government-run program, they could take the money away, if Trump won.”, Efron exclaims. Even Elon Musk https://www.nysun.com/article/biden-administration-goes-on-dangerous-and-destructive-climate-spending-spree-ahead-of-trump-inauguration, calling the video proof that "the U.S. government is actively working to undermine the American people." Trump's Transition Team: From Chaos to Competence Trump has made it clear that his second term will prioritize results over rhetoric. His administration will cut through the debris of Biden's failures with laser focus, appointing experts—not diversity freaks—to tackle America's most urgent problems.- Energy independence will be restored.- Government employees will be expected to actually show up to work as President Trump dismantles Biden's attempt to prevent 42,000 workers at the Social Security Administration https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-03/biden-administration-locks-in-wfh-policies-for-some-federal-staff-ahead-of-trump.- Wasteful spending on unproductive programs will be slashed.Gone will be the carnival of incompetence that defined the Biden administration. Trump's team will hit the ground running, undoing four years of damage in record time. Peaceful Transition This! Aristotle said, "The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal." The Biden administration proved to be a https://theblacksphere.net/2024/12/carville-calls-biden-the-most-tragic-figure-in-american-politics/. And their transition has been no different. Despite inheriting the worst administration in history, Trump's first 100 days will be epic. And the transformation of America back to greatness will begin on Day One. A short of adrenalin is about to hit America, and it will last 4 years, challenging the boom of the Clinton years. If Trump performs as I predict (and he will), Democrats will be hard-pressed to win major elections for the next decade at least. In short, Trump doesn't care about the so-called “peaceful transition”. He has a man on his team who can replace NASA. And he appointed others who are equally talented in their own ways. Gone are the DEI appointments, and freak show of the Biden administration. This transition team knows it's at war with Biden. And like the election, this too will be an easy victory.    Oh the irony of Trump ever sitting down with media again and how this was the Democrats' goal. As I have stated today and many times, the media is dying a slow death. X is the #1 media outlet in America. Media by the people. The platform that deplatformed President Trump is now his biggest defender by being blatantly OPEN. Trump is doing regular media now. Not that long ago, MSNBC's undynamic duo from Morning Joe begged president Trump for an interview.  How must it feel for Trump to know how much the media participated in targeting him, and now they beg him for interviews. As all the Leftist media networks suffer, their only lifeline is getting him to sit down for an interview. And when he speaks, the added irony that they can no longer "fact-check" him, because the American people trust Trump more than they do the media itself. Next is the summary of the interview. Again, look for the irony, hypocrisy, and most of all the comedy of this. Present it as if you were a writer for the Trump sitcom hosted by me. I know what endears me to Donald Trump. When it comes to Americans, he tells us what his plans are. Sure he's more coy with our frenemies, but with us, he's a straight shooter. The fact is, I don't agree with everything Trump says or does. For example, in the interview, Trump reiterated that he has no plans for retribution and that success Alright, let's set the stage for the greatest sitcom plot twist ever: The Donald Trump Redemption Tour: Meet the Press Edition. Picture this—it's like a rom-com where the villain realizes they need the hero to save them. Except, instead of flowers, the media shows up with boom mics and trembling voices like, "Mr. President... would you please save our ratings?" The Setup: Desperate Times for Leftist Media You know the media's down bad when they start swiping right on Trump. These people spent years acting like he was Voldemort with a spray tan. Now? He's their only hope. The irony here is rich, folks. They've gone from screaming "Orange Man Bad!" to whispering, “Orange Man, can you spare some views?” It's like they planned this massive intervention to cancel him, but now they're the ones on life support. CNN's viewership is so low they might as well broadcast in Morse code. MSNBC is losing so many key demographics, I hear Rachel Maddow's next show is called Rachel Maddow: Live from My Basement. And Trump knows it. You could see it in his smirk during that Meet the Press interview. That smirk said, “You need me more than a vegan needs quinoa.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

Even Elon Musk https://www.nysun.com/article/biden-administration-goes-on-dangerous-and-destructive-climate-spending-spree-ahead-of-trump-inauguration, calling the video proof that "the U.S. government is actively working to undermine the American people." Trump's Transition Team: From Chaos to Competence Trump has made it clear that his second term will prioritize results over rhetoric. His administration will cut through the debris of Biden's failures with laser focus, appointing experts—not diversity freaks—to tackle America's most urgent problems.- Energy independence will be restored.- Government employees will be expected to actually show up to work as President Trump dismantles Biden's attempt to prevent 42,000 workers at the Social Security Administration https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-03/biden-administration-locks-in-wfh-policies-for-some-federal-staff-ahead-of-trump.- Wasteful spending on unproductive programs will be slashed.Gone will be the carnival of incompetence that defined the Biden administration. Trump's team will hit the ground running, undoing four years of damage in record time. Peaceful Transition This! Aristotle said, "The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal." The Biden administration proved to be a https://theblacksphere.net/2024/12/carville-calls-biden-the-most-tragic-figure-in-american-politics/. And their transition has been no different. Despite inheriting the worst administration in history, Trump's first 100 days will be epic. And the transformation of America back to greatness will begin on Day One. A short of adrenalin is about to hit America, and it will last 4 years, challenging the boom of the Clinton years. If Trump performs as I predict (and he will), Democrats will be hard-pressed to win major elections for the next decade at least. In short, Trump doesn't care about the so-called “peaceful transition”. He has a man on his team who can replace NASA. And he appointed others who are equally talented in their own ways. Gone are the DEI appointments, and freak show of the Biden administration. This transition team knows it's at war with Biden. And like the election, this too will be an easy victory.  [SEGMENT 2-3] Lessons Learned 3   Oh the irony of Trump ever sitting down with media again and how this was the Democrats' goal. As I have stated today and many times, the media is dying a slow death. X is the #1 media outlet in America. Media by the people. The platform that deplatformed President Trump is now his biggest defender by being blatantly OPEN. Trump is doing regular media now. Not that long ago, MSNBC's undynamic duo from Morning Joe begged president Trump for an interview.  How must it feel for Trump to know how much the media participated in targeting him, and now they beg him for interviews. As all the Leftist media networks suffer, their only lifeline is getting him to sit down for an interview. And when he speaks, the added irony that they can no longer "fact-check" him, because the American people trust Trump more than they do the media itself. Next is the summary of the interview. Again, look for the irony, hypocrisy, and most of all the comedy of this. Present it as if you were a writer for the Trump sitcom hosted by me. I know what endears me to Donald Trump. When it comes to Americans, he tells us what his plans are. Sure he's more coy with our frenemies, but with us, he's a straight shooter. The fact is, I don't agree with everything Trump says or does. For example, in the interview, Trump reiterated that he has no plans for retribution and that success Alright, let's set the stage for the greatest sitcom plot twist ever: The Donald Trump Redemption Tour: Meet the Press Edition. Picture this—it's like a rom-com where the villain realizes they need the hero to save them. Except, instead of flowers, the media shows up with boom mics and trembling voices like, "Mr. President... would you please save our ratings?" The Setup: Desperate Times for Leftist Media You know the media's down bad when they start swiping right on Trump. These people spent years acting like he was Voldemort with a spray tan. Now? He's their only hope. The irony here is rich, folks. They've gone from screaming "Orange Man Bad!" to whispering, “Orange Man, can you spare some views?” It's like they planned this massive intervention to cancel him, but now they're the ones on life support. CNN's viewership is so low they might as well broadcast in Morse code. MSNBC is losing so many key demographics, I hear Rachel Maddow's next show is called Rachel Maddow: Live from My Basement. And Trump knows it. You could see it in his smirk during that Meet the Press interview. That smirk said, “You need me more than a vegan needs quinoa.”[SEGMENT 2-4] Lessons Learned 4Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

Whole lot of 'ugly' coming out folks after Donald Trump's election win. Locally, people have been getting racist text messages. Then there's two of his Cabinet picks - both with prior sexual assault claims dogging them. The anti-woke Pentagon pick is pretty noteworthy, no? Then, no big deal, but the nation's future top attorney is sweating a House Ethics panel report. Totally fine. Birds of a feather, right? Hey, whatever became of Billy Bush, anyway? Here in Atlanta, two suburban (and blue!) counties rejected transit initiatives. Why? Bill Tory says voters didn't see immediate gratification. I believe we've lost our appetite for 'vision.' Meanwhile, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg - who I believe Democrats should rally behind for messaging, going forward - spent time at Harvard talking with students there offering his party a route to 'salvation' - local action. He also addressed the steady stream of disinformation ruining political discourse and believes it'll take Sen Z tackling it to help solve it.

Terry Short Jr. is running for a third term on Waynesboro City Council, this time running for the Ward B seat on the body. Short talks with AFP editor Chris Graham about the 2024 race. Short is one of three independents running for seats against a slate of Republicans hand-picked the sitting vice mayor, Jim Wood, the chairman of the Waynesboro Republican Committee. Wood is the guy who was in national headlines last year for his homophobic slur of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Short was outspoken in his criticism of Wood, who stands to become mayor if the GOP slate is successful in next week's voting. That is, if we get the vote certified. Wood's two appointees to the Waynesboro Electoral Board have filed a lawsuit saying they will not vote to certify the local vote absent a court order, raising issue in the suit with state election law. We cover those topics and others, including housing affordability, education and economic opportunity, in this interview.

After a high-stakes week that included a Vice Presidential debate, a dire warning from Liz Cheney and the unsealing of new evidence in the Special Counsel's case against Donald Trump, Jen Psaki breaks down why election denialism is not just a 2020 problem, but a 2024 problem too. Jen is joined by Officer Harry Dunn and Michael Cohen, Trump's former lawyer, to discuss how Trump and his allies will try to steal the  2024 election, should he lose. Legal experts Neal Katyal and Andrew Weissmann talk about the Special Counsel's explosive new filing, which reveals Trump's abdication of duty on January 6th, among other things. Next, Jen explains how Trump is exploiting the victims of Hurricane Helene to demonize migrants, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg joins to discuss efforts to push back against MAGA-amplified falsehoods.  Finally, Jen is joined by Michigan Democratic Party Chair Lavora Barnes and Oakland University student Marcus Johnson, whose keen understanding of civics made him the breakout star of a focus group on the Vice Presidential debate.Check out our social pages below:https://twitter.com/InsideWithPsakihttps://www.instagram.com/InsideWithPsaki/https://www.tiktok.com/@insidewithpsakihttps://www.msnbc.com/jen-psaki

WE CAN'T SAY whether the federal government's response to the disaster caused by Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina is simple incompetence or something more insidious, but it will definitely have an impact on next month's election.  At the very least, messaging from the Biden-Harris administration is absolutely tone-deaf. From Kamala Harris staging a photo op at FEMA HQ and offering victims of the disaster $750, to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg threatening to arrest private drone pilots trying to deliver supplies to people cut off by damaged roads and bridges, to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announcing that FEMA doesn't have enough money to last through the hurricane season (after spending nearly a billion dollars this year on illegal migrants), this White House inspires no confidence in its ability to provide needed help to the taxpaying citizens of the United States. It's a painful but important lesson: Prepare for disaster, because the government will not save you. And it may be doing harm: We discuss a disturbing report this week by Muckraker on the more than 300,000 unaccompanied child migrants that have gone missing after the government turned them over to sponsors. MVM, a private security contractor with links to the CIA, NSA, FBI, and Homeland Security, has received hundreds of millions of dollars in federal contracts to escort these unaccompanied migrant children to sponsors across the country.  This reminds us of scandals we've discussed over the years:  Nick Bryant, author of The Franklin Scandal (1980s scandal involving Boys Town)Dr. Greg Reid on the Finders and ritual abuseJosh Peck on his documentary Silent CryOur 2005 episode of P.I.D. Radio on the Finders (and the group's link to the CIA), Johnny Gosch, Satanic Ritual Abuse, the Franklin Credit Union scandal, and what investigator and author Dave McGowan called “the Pedophocracy” Please pardon the audio from 2005.

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!   Brett kicks off the program by talking about the precarious situation of 80,000 Americans in Lebanon amidst rising tensions, and the administration's failure to manage disasters effectively. He critiques the Biden administration, calling it a "maladministration," and expresses concern over FEMA's lack of funds, which he attributes to spending on migrant services. Winterble highlights a lack of clear communication and effective response strategies from government officials, particularly focusing on comments from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg regarding drone use during emergencies. He also raises questions about the handling of federal funds, particularly in relation to migrant services  We're joined by Jim Champion from Liberty Mountain to talk about  the aftermath of a recent storm that affected Kings Mountain. Jim shares that while the community faced some storm damage and power outages, the theater company he represents came through without any damage. Jim Champion highlights that they are resuming performances and will have four shows that weekend, emphasizing a positive recovery and resilience in the community.  Beth Troutman from Good Morning BT is also here for this Thursday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Beth talk about the implications of recent allegations against Diddy, considering whether this situation might eclipse the Epstein case due to the potential for more public revelations and testimonies. Beth highlights the societal issues related to power dynamics and the objectification of women, emphasizing the fear many women experience in their daily lives as a result of these dynamics. They also reflect on the need for a deeper conversation about celebrity culture and sexual behavior, with Beth noting her involvement in a documentary on human trafficking. Toward the end, Beth mentions an upcoming segment focused on a local teen victim of a cyber scam, stressing the importance of parental awareness and protection in the digital landscape. Beth also shares what She and Bo Thompson have coming up Friday on Good Morning BT!  Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Round 1: President Biden's Decision to Step Aside President Biden has made the monumental decision to step aside from his bid for a second term. At his Rehoboth, Delaware beach house, a place of reflection and family, Biden concluded that it was time to withdraw. Despite recovering from COVID-19, concerns about his ability to lead another term had grown. The GOP united behind Trump at their Milwaukee convention, while the Democratic Party faced internal calls for Biden to step down due to lagging poll numbers. #PresidentBiden #BidenStepsAside #2024Election #DemocraticParty #BidenBeachHouse #BidenCOVIDRecovery Social Media Tags: @JoeBiden @WhiteHouse @POTUS Round 2: Where is President Biden? Following his announcement to step aside, President Biden has not been seen publicly, prompting widespread speculation about his location. It is believed he is spending time with family and close advisors. Discussions are also focused on the 25th Amendment's process for the transfer of presidential powers, outlining how such a significant transition would occur. #WhereIsBiden #25thAmendment #PresidentialTransition #BidenFamilyTime #ConstitutionalProcess Social Media Tags: @VP @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats Round 3: Harris' Appointment as the Head of the Party Vice President Kamala Harris is stepping up as the leader of the Democratic Party following Biden's decision.

What do you expect from a president and other politicians, regardless of which party they are from?Even if we didn't vote for them or don't agree with them, we deserve leaders who obey the Constitution and tell us the truth. We want figures who will protect our God-given liberties and our private property and be good stewards of our tax dollars.But none of that is happening. As a result, many of us have grown cynical about politics. But even then, Americans expect government officials to be reasonably competent. It's not asking too much for them to have expertise - or at least a working knowledge - of the jobs they are hired to do.But we get just the opposite, from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who thinks roads and bridges are racist, to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who is deliberately allowing a tsunami of illegal immigration into our nation.And just last week, we saw how President Biden's top economic adviser could not explain the role that bonds play in financing our growing debt. Treasury Sec. Janet Yellen says she's incapable of making projections about our national debt.Our leaders are failing us and we must make a change - in elected office and in appointed positions. That all starts at the ballot box, and the 2024 elections cannot come soon enough.Today, Sara welcomes Eric Hovde, a successful entrepreneur, businessman, and philanthropist.

And he reveals that while Biden keeps crowing about more Americans being covered under Obamcare, access to health care is actually declining.He also reveals how the border crisis is having real, negative effects all the way up in Wisconsin and how his philanthropic work is focused on rescuing children of the evils of human trafficking.Thanks for being a part of the Sara Carter Show.Time Stamps:0:05 Will America be better in 4 years?5:35 Eric Hovde joins the Sara Carter Show7:35 Washington has wrecked our economy9:55 Biden is advised by idiots12:48 Yellen is just as bad14:30 How to right our economic ship19:12 Baldwin is for socialized healthcare23:02 The Senate must fix the immigration system26:08 The Hovde Foundation is fighting child traffickingPlease visit our great sponsors:Goldcohttp://saralikesgold.comGet your free gold kit today and learn how to get $10,000 in bonus silver. My Pillowhttps://mypillow.comUse code CARTER for $25 prices and free shipping on orders over $75.Visit: https://erichovde.com/
