Congressman Morgan McGarvey (KY-03) spoke with Terry Meiners on WHAS Radio a day after going 4-4 in the Congressional Softball Game. McGarvey's Democrats were pounded by the Republicans but the Kentucky congressman earned an MVP award for his batting prowess.Rep. McGarvey and Meiners discussed the latest on the Iran war and movement from the Trump Justice Department to tighten its influence over state elections. Many conservatives are suspicious of the elongated mail-in vote counting process following recent California primary elections, casting doubt on the accuracy of election results.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comWhat happens when the justice system becomes one of the central battlegrounds of American politics?In this episode of Faithful Politics, Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram speak with Adam Klasfeld, veteran legal journalist and editor in chief of All Rise News, about several major legal fights unfolding in the Trump era. Adam has spent years covering high-profile court cases from inside the courtroom, including Trump's criminal and civil cases, the E. Jean Carroll litigation, the Epstein prosecution, impeachment proceedings, and major cases involving civil rights and due process.The conversation begins with Trump's proposed $1.776 billion anti-weaponization fund. Adam explains where the fund came from, why its structure is raising alarms, and how taxpayer money could potentially be distributed with little public oversight. He also walks through why Capitol Police officers Harry Dunn and Dan Hodges are challenging the fund, and what the fight says about January 6, political loyalty, and accountability.The episode then turns to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man who was sent to El Salvador despite a court order blocking his removal. Adam explains why this case has become such an important due process fight, why judges across the political spectrum have raised concerns, and why the case matters even to people who may not follow immigration law closely.Finally, Adam breaks down the Trump Justice Department's case involving the Southern Poverty Law Center. He explains the government's claims about SPLC's former informant program, the connection to Charlottesville and Unite the Right, and why the case raises larger questions about civil rights organizations, extremism, and the rewriting of recent history.Relevant links for Adam Klasfeld:All Rise Newshttps://www.allrisenews.com/https://substack.com/@klasfeldreportshttps://x.com/KlasfeldReportshttps://www.instagram.com/adamklasfeld/Guest BioAdam Klasfeld provides some of the “best legal writing inside the courtroom” (MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell) and insights that are “always so smart and on the money” (MSNBC's Katie Phang).

The surreal spectacle of ex-FBI director James Comey surrendering to federal authorities to face charges of threatening Donald Trump over an innocent Instagram post illustrates the line between a mere conservative and an actual fascist. CounterVortex chief ranter Bill Weinberg had a personal run-in with Comey back when he was a federal prosecutor. Later, as FBI chief, Comey was accused of trying to prejudice the electorate against Hillary Clinton—only to be himself targeted by the Trump Justice Department. The absurdity of the latest charges against Comey are obvious to anyone who has worked in the restaurant industry. Trump should indeed be eighty-sixed—through legal and constitutional means, such as impeachment, 25th Amendment invocation, or nullification of his illegitimate election. And, indeed, sent to face war crimes charges at The Hague. In Episode 326 of the CounterVortex podcast, Weinberg says: Yes, #8647! Fuckin' A!

Jen Psaki shares new reporting from NBC News about Donald Trump being fed a daily sizzle reel of Iran war explosions, and growing concerns that even the most basic information about the war in Iran is eluding Trump's understanding regardless of the briefing format. And a classified Pentagon briefing of lawmakers on the plan for Iran was apparently so unacceptable that even Republicans were willing to risk Trump's ire to speak out against how the war is being run. Rep. Pat Ryan and Rep. Chris Deluzio talk with Jen about the growing consensus that Donald Trump has no idea what he's doing in Iran or how to get the U.S. out of it. Despite Judge Aileen Cannon restricting some documents from Jack Smith's investigation of Donald Trump from being made public, Rep. Jamie Raskin found that Trump Justice Department shared some of those documents with the House Oversight Committee in an effort to help smear Jack Smith, not realizing they were also exposing Smith's theory of why Trump was hoarding classified documents. Rep. Raskin discusses with Jen Psaki. Rep. Ro Khanna talks with Jen Psaki about progress in the Epstein investigation, which is being done by Congress because Donald Trump's Justice Department doesn't seem to be bothered.

────────────────────────────────────────00:02:10:28 — Federal Officials Accused of Halting Epstein Ranch InvestigationJames Comer says the Trump Justice Department asked New Mexico officials to stop their investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch after Epstein's death. The shutdown of the state probe raises questions about federal interference and the broader handling of Epstein-related evidence. ────────────────────────────────────────00:05:44:10 — Iran Threatens Global Trade by Choking the Strait of HormuzIran signals it could shut down or severely disrupt shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical artery for global energy and trade flows. Targeting ports, refineries, and shipping routes could cripple global supply chains far beyond the battlefield. ────────────────────────────────────────00:09:32:12 — UN Resolution Condemns Iran While Ignoring U.S. and Israeli StrikesMore than 80 nations support a UN Security Council resolution condemning Iranian actions against Gulf states while omitting criticism of U.S. or Israeli military operations. The move is portrayed as evidence of geopolitical double standards in international diplomacy. ────────────────────────────────────────00:13:33:20 — Trump Claims Victory in Iran War While Continuing Military OperationsTrump declares that the United States has already “won” the war with Iran but simultaneously says U.S. forces will remain engaged to finish the mission. The conflicting messaging raises uncertainty about the war's objectives and timeline. ────────────────────────────────────────00:15:12:06 — Pentagon Accused of Misjudging Iran's Decentralized War StrategyIran's “mosaic defense” doctrine—decentralized units designed to survive leadership decapitation strikes—is highlighted as a strategy U.S. planners allegedly underestimated. The discussion frames this as a major strategic blind spot in the war's early planning. ────────────────────────────────────────00:18:51:28 — Pentagon Seeks Expanded Domestic Surveillance PowersThe Defense Department reportedly pushes to remove restrictions limiting domestic surveillance, citing supply-chain security concerns. Critics warn the move would extend military monitoring powers into domestic affairs. ────────────────────────────────────────00:20:47:02 — Pentagon Tightens Control Over Media Coverage of the WarMajor media outlets lose Pentagon access after refusing to sign agreements restricting communication with sources. The policy leaves official Defense Department photographers and selected figures as the primary sources of wartime imagery. ────────────────────────────────────────00:40:35:02 — War in the Persian Gulf Sends Gold and Oil Prices SurgingFinancial analysts warn that disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz are pushing oil and gold prices sharply higher. The situation is compared to the 1970s oil crisis and raises fears of global economic instability. ────────────────────────────────────────00:55:37:02 — War and Energy Shock Could Accelerate Collapse of Dollar DominanceAnalysts argue that rising oil prices, debt pressures, and central bank accumulation of gold could accelerate global de-dollarization. The conflict with Iran is framed as a catalyst for major changes in the global monetary system. ────────────────────────────────────────01:07:40:13 — Major Private Equity Firms Restrict Withdrawals Amid Liquidity StressBlackRock, Blackstone, and other firms reportedly halt outflows from certain private equity funds. The move signals potential financial stress tied to commercial real estate and tightening credit markets. ────────────────────────────────────────01:24:28:22 — Reports Claim Lindsey Graham Encouraged Netanyahu to Push Trump Toward WarAccording to reports, Senator Lindsey Graham traveled repeatedly to Israel and advised Netanyahu on persuading Trump to support military action against Iran. The claim suggests outside political lobbying contributed to escalation. ────────────────────────────────────────01:43:29:16 — Oil Supply Shock Could Trigger Global Inflation CrisisAnalysts warn that prolonged disruption in the Strait of Hormuz could drive hoarding, supply shortages, and rapidly rising energy prices.

STATEMENT FROM ABBE LOWELL, ATTORNEY FOR DON LEMON Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards. Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done. The First Amendment exists to protect journalists whose role it is to shine light on the truth and hold those in power accountable. There is no more important time for people like Don to be doing this work. Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention and resources to this arrest, and that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case. This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for January 1, 2026. 0:30 A controversial appointment in New York City is raising serious red flags as the new mayor — Zohran Mamdani — installs a Democratic Socialist housing activist who has openly called for the seizure of private property and labeled homeownership a form of “white supremacy.” We break down why this move goes far beyond tenant advocacy and strikes at the heart of American freedom, private property rights, and constitutional principles. From New York’s iconic skyline to immigrant success stories, property ownership—not government control—is the foundation of liberty and prosperity. As radical housing policies gain traction in America’s largest city, the question becomes unavoidable: Is New York exporting socialism—and what does that mean for the future of the country? 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The former dictator of Venezuela appeared in a New York City Courtroom to plead not guilty to charges of narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the United States. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has abandoned his race for a third consecutive Term. A man was arrested after damaging property at Vice President JD Vance's home in Cincinnati, Ohio. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We revisit Chuck Schumer’s 2020 attacks on President Trump over Venezuela, when Schumer accused Trump of being too weak for failing to remove dictator Nicolás Maduro. At the time, Schumer demanded tougher action and mocked Trump for not delivering regime change. Fast-forward to 2026, and the tables have turned. Trump did exactly what Schumer claimed to want—after Maduro was indicted by the Trump Justice Department in 2020 and then ignored for four full years under the Biden administration. Yet now that Trump has acted, Schumer is still unhappy. 16:00 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson discuss the situation in Venezuela after the arrest of Nicolas Maduro. The Mamas describe watching videos of Venezuelans celebrating in the streets—both inside Venezuela and across places like Miami, Chile, and Buenos Aires—after decades of repression, food shortages, and stolen wages. Even as Venezuelan expatriates openly celebrate his removal, left-wing protests defend Maduro. Is this another case of Trump Derangement Syndrome? If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 Here’s something you won’t hear much about: car theft in the United States is down nearly 25%, and the timing isn’t accidental. Since the Trump administration began cracking down on illegal immigration and international theft rings, stolen vehicle numbers have dropped sharply compared to the same period last year. 25:00 There are a lot of unanswered questions swirling around Venezuela—and we're digging deep. Why did President Trump say the U.S. is “running” Venezuela? Why isn’t Washington immediately backing the opposition leaders who reportedly won the 2024 election? Why are Venezuelans celebrating abroad, but the streets inside Venezuela remain eerily quiet? The answer is Cuba. We lay a theory that explains the loose ends: Maduro didn’t trust his own military, so his inner security was handled by Cuban operatives, trained by the old Soviet KGB. That explains why most of those killed during Maduro’s ouster were Cuban, not Venezuelan—and why fear still grips the country. The Cubans, not Maduro alone, were effectively the deep state of Venezuela, controlling intelligence, security, and enforcement. 32:00 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 About a third of Venezuela’s oil has been going straight to China—not out of friendship, but leverage, discounts, and a shot at the United States. With U.S. sanctions in place, Beijing was scooping up embargoed oil on the cheap while thumbing its nose at Washington. Win-win for China. But that game may be ending. As global dynamics shift, President Trump signals a different approach: sell Venezuela’s oil on the open market, rebuild its broken energy infrastructure, and let prosperity replace poverty. And make no mistake—Venezuela should be rich. It has more proven oil reserves than any country on Earth and massive gold reserves, yet its people are poor because socialism turned a resource powerhouse into a failed state. 35:30 The U.S. raid to capture Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro isn’t unprecedented—it closely mirrors America’s 1989–1990 operation to arrest Panama’s dictator, Manuel Noriega. Back then, Noriega was indicted for drug trafficking, rejected a deal to step aside, lost a monitored election, and was ultimately seized by U.S. forces and brought to trial. Sound familiar? The parallels are striking, right down to the date: Noriega was captured on January 3, 1990—exactly 36 years before Maduro was taken into custody on January 3, 2026. 39:30 The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board says Minnesota’s massive welfare fraud scandal isn’t about Somali immigrants—it’s about a bloated welfare state that invites corruption. There’s some truth there. Big government does create big temptation. But that explanation stops short of the uncomfortable question: why is so much of this fraud concentrated in one specific demographic? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The current administration wants to repeal the blanket rule, which automatically gives the same protections to threatened species that endangered species receive, such as prohibiting the harming, killing, or trading of those species.

You better not shout, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why: The Epstein files are coming to town! Following the near-unanimous passage of Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie's discharge petition, the Trump Justice Department has until midnight on December 19 to finally make the Epstein files public. Will the administration follow through, or will Pam Bondi and pals attempt some last-minute shenanigans? Matt Kibbe sits down with Thomas Massie to discuss what happens next and whether the recently reopened investigation into Epstein's case has a chance of thwarting the will of the people.

After breaking down Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's numerous controversies, such as the boat strikes in the Caribbean and Signalgate, Nicolle asks “Who are we?” The answer may lie in new reporting from Bloomberg, which reveals that the FBI is pressuring the bureau's domestic terrorism agents to open a seditious conspiracy investigation into six Democratic lawmakers who advised military service members to defy unlawful orders.Later, Carol Leonnig and Andrew Weissmann join Nicolle to discuss the snag the Trump DOJ ran into in an effort to re-indict New York Attorney General Letitia James. In late November, Letitia James and James Comey had their criminal indictments dismissed by a judge, citing Prosecutor Lindsay Halligan's “unlawful appointment.” Finally, Jacob Soboroff breaks down his interview with a college student who was taken into ICE custody and deported back to Honduras.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down Donald Trump's new war threats against Nigeria and how Donald Trump and Republicans are doubling down on their lies about the economy after getting demolished in Tuesday's elections—even as new data shows the economy collapsing under their failed policies, with mass layoffs sweeping across the country. The team dives into Marjorie Taylor Greene's escalating feud with GOP leadership, the Trump Justice Department's politically motivated prosecutions unraveling in real time, and several major breaking legal stories—from the Supreme Court showdown over Trump's tariffs, to a federal court ruling on the use of force by agents in Chicago, to a verdict in D.C.'s infamous “sandwich guy” case.

Remember the uproar when it was revealed that the Biden administration had pressured social media companies to remove certain online content, a clear assault on free speech? Well guess what — the Trump Justice Department under Pam Bondi is now doing the same thing!  In this segment Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Facebook removing an ICE-tracking group at the request of the Justice Department as well as earlier instances of the FBI and White House dictating censorship of COVID-19-related content on social media.  Jimmy exposes this behavior as blatant political hypocrisy, with each party criticizing censorship only when out of power but continuing it once in control. The segment concludes by framing the situation as evidence that U.S. administrations, regardless of party, maintain similar approaches to government influence over online platforms and speech regulation. Plus segments on the Trump administrations increasingly invasive plans to stage a coup in Venezuela and the highly suspicious Google searches that took place in DC and Israel prior to Charlie Kirk's shooting. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

On this week’s SoloPod, Angela Rye breaks down the charges against New York’s Attorney General Letitia “Tish” James, and connects them to a larger pattern of powerful Black women being unjustly prosecuted. SPEAKING OF DISRESPECT TO BLACK WOMEN, our NLP hosts called out Stephen A Smith last week for his comments disparaging Congresswomen Jasmine Crocket over her lack of “civility.” Stephen accused his critics, including our hosts, of attacking him without substance. Sir, these attacks have substance, and we are happy to explain. The Trump Justice Department has charged Letitia James with mortgage fraud, the same charge they’ve brought against Lisa Cook and other “enemies” of Trump. As New York AG, Letitia James successfully prosecuted the Trump family for financial crimes back in 2022 by showing proof that Trump over-inflated his net worth for tax and insurance benefits.
