Podcast appearances and mentions of Joe Biden

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the Socialists, Marxists, and Islamists condemn America, its founding, and the Constitution. Any Democrat or DSA candidate who has stated they cannot abide the Constitution or seek to fundamentally alter it without amending it must not be seated in the next Congress, a position which is compelled by the Constitution itself. Article 6, Clause 3 requires senators, representatives, and other officers to be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution; they cannot be seated until they take that oath, which is a requirement of serving rather than a ceremonial act. Also, some conservative politicians who had been acting like pseudo-conservatives now appear to be shifting on AI data centers toward local control, leaving decisions to local governments and zoning boards. Just a week earlier the Luddites and radical leftists were serving the interests of communist China rather than America's. Artificial intelligence is involved in many areas where it is wanted and will produce enormous community wealth that can fund positive things, lower taxes rather than raise them, and—if handled properly—not drive up electricity costs. Democrats, not data centers, have driven up energy prices for years. Later, steps must still be taken so that, if the Iranian regime collapses, people with a Western mentality who are friends of ours can take the reins; that is not the same as establishing a democracy. Allies need not be democracies. Arm the resistance and opposition and they will rise up. Afterward, Ryan Reynolds is an irrelevant actor who called the 1980s a “brutal time,” a “fu*king mess” of sociopolitical tension. The 1980's were a spectacular era of economic growth, restored American superpower status, Reagan's defeat of the Soviet Union and eight years of great Americanism. Hatred of the 1980s is really hatred of Reagan and Republicans; those who reject its economics in favor of 1930s-style big-government programs (New Deal through Biden) or who recast activist government as a new national-conservative idea are recycling old liberal-Republican/RINO thinking.

If desperation had a scent all of Midtown Manhattan would be overwhelmed from the stench generated by Fox News headquarters. What started out as a dream for the network on January 20, 2025, has turned into a nightmare of another never-ending war in the Middle East, high gas prices, a rise in the popularity of socialism, and a mentally declining president who is more focused on his vanity projects than his campaign promises.Fox News was so panicked the network dedicated entire segments to Hasan Piker, a controversial leftwing Twitch streamer who is not well known outside of his specific audience.The network has brought up Piker and his problematic statements for the past few months. Last week his name showed up in the transcripts 73 times which was more often than the words Israel, China, Biden, gas or even midterm appeared.The network is determined to make Piker the new face of the Democratic Party even though he has an army of critics among prominent left of center lawmakers and political pundits.He also has made no move to seek public office or engage in fundraising at a scale that would rival a PAC or mega donor.Other than Fox's obsessive coverage of Piker the network was a jumbled mess of pop culture stories, fantasies involving Hillary Clinton, deceptive segments about an interview with Abdul El-Sayed and fawning praise for the glorious leader - Donald J. Trump. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit decodingfoxnews.substack.com/subscribe

As midterm elections approach, former President Joe Biden's legacy still plays a big role in the Democratic Party.

In today's episode, the editor talks with Here & Now's Scott Tong about writing a first draft of history, the political polarization that surrounded the Biden years and what the lessons Democrats might have learned – and missed.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

Like Ukraine can't defeat fascism alone, neither can America. We need the world to stand up to MAGA's lawlessness. Making the case on Gaslit Nation is Elie Mystal, Justice Correspondent for The Nation and author of Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America.  If Democrats win back power, they must use it maximally. Mystal, a prophetic voice in the fight for democracy, breaks down how, including by showing what Biden and the Democrats should have done to curb Trump and MAGA extremism when they had the chance. (We'll be shouting we told you so all the way to the gulag!) He explains why Merrick Garland was – as we warned here on Gaslit Nation – a threat to democracy, what actions Democrats and the people must take now in the limited time we have left, and why New York State Attorney General Tish James serves as a vital reminder of the importance of local resistance. (Remember her iconic video calling out Elon Musk?) Most importantly, Mystal calls on world leaders to divest from America, an urgent strategy that helped bring down apartheid. This week's bonus show, out Thursday, available in full for our communities on Patreon.com/Gaslit and GaslitNation.Substack.com that keep our show going, looks at America as a corporation, sharing important insights into how the sausage gets made, and shares resources on fighting Flock cameras.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they consider a terrific defense of capitalism in the face of CNN lefties trying to tie it to white supremacy, Rick Caruso's odd re-emergence in the LA mayor's race, Sen. Ed Markey easily winning his primary and immediately calling for Trump's impeachment, and Hunter Biden's latest weird confession.First, they applaud CNN panelist Kmele Foster for his robust defense of capitalism and how it is absurd for the left to try to link it to white supremacy as James Talarico and others have tried to do. Jim also explains that the frustrations many people think they have with capitalism is really the result of government regulation.Next, they roll their eyes as Rick Caruso, who lost the 2022 Los Angeles mayoral race to Karen Bass, suddenly reappears and seems shocked that the Democratic Socialists of America are a factor in this year's campaign. Jim and Greg discuss how Caruso's stock has fallen considerably over the past couple of years.Then, they dig into Sen. Markey's big win over Rep. Seth Moulton in the Democratic U.S. Senate primary in Massachusetts. And while some top Democrats are pretending otherwise, Markey immediately demanded the impeachment of President Trump if Democrats control Congress again.Finally, they're almost speechless as Hunter Biden declares himself 48.6 percent gay. Greg sees this as a ploy by Biden to gain sympathy and support on the left.

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – That is the real scandal. Not just the drugs, not just the chaos, not just the sleaze. It is the media's willingness to protect one side while destroying the other. It is a political class that expects voters to accept dysfunction as normal so long as the correct party is in charge. It is the use of compassion as camouflage. Americans know the difference...

The latest on Iran, Scott Bessent’s tough warning to the regime, Hunter Biden’s bizarre podcast revelations, socialism in Congress, Chinese influence in American politics, AI-powered home robots, controversial data centers, and more. Plus, birthdays, history, Flounder Funnies and plenty of Kimmer commentary.

Separating fact from fiction is supposedly more difficult than ever. Especially now that artificial intelligence can manufacture photographs, imitate voices, and produce video of politicians saying things they never said. Although, to be fair, Joe Biden spent four years producing videos of himself saying things no one understood. No artificial intelligence required. Occasionally, no recognizable intelligence required. And the technology will only get better. That means our ability to distinguish truth from fiction had better get better, too. So, trust your training. Trust your instincts. Trust your gut. And sadly, I have considerably more gut to trust these days. I have excuses, of course. Every man with a growing waistline has excuses. We don't gain weight—we accumulate mitigating circumstances. My wife endured a medical issue that lasted more than a year, which disrupted our lives and kept me from getting to the gym. Then came the medical bills, the stresses of life, and a few other unexpected hitches. Life happened. But I endured, just as you endure. Because we are warriors. Patriots. People willing to tolerate inconvenience, sacrifice comfort, and occasionally loosen a belt buckle for the cause. Over the past decade, conservatives trained for the Olympics of politics. We studied the issues. We researched the candidates. We watched the hearings. We tracked the money. We learned about ballot harvesting, censorship, lawfare, intelligence agencies, nonprofit networks, and government corruption. Meanwhile, the Left didn't train for the Olympics. They fixed the judges, changed the scoring system, disqualified the competition, and then gave themselves participation trophies for courage. They sat around eating bonbons and drinking Kool-Aid while we sweated and toiled. But all that training paid off. The media can no longer fool us—not the way they once did. Smooth-talking politicians can't dazzle us with polished speeches and focus-grouped phrases. Government bureaucrats can't simply announce, “We investigated ourselves and found ourselves magnificent.” We know the truth the Leftist-controlled government never wanted ordinary Americans to discover: They lie. They lie about crime. They lie about the economy. They lie about race. They lie about elections. They lie about men becoming women. They lie about the border while millions of illegal aliens walk across it. And then, when the consequences arrive, they tell us not to believe our lying eyes. For years, our vote-counting system became an illusion, and with it, our belief that the people running the country were protecting our investment in America. They weren't protecting it. They allowed practically anybody to take advantage of us. Foreign governments, illegal immigrants, corrupt contractors, political nonprofits, race hustlers, gender hustlers, climate hustlers—and every other hustler with a grant application and a Democratic voter-registration form.

On a special edition of “Closer Look,” host Rose Scott sits down for a one-on-one conversation with Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms. Bottoms addresses questions about her tenure as Atlanta mayor, including key decisions made under her leadership. She also reflects on how her four years in office along with her work in the Biden administration are guiding her approach to governing the state if elected as Georgia’s 84th governor. The discussion covers several major issues: expanding resources for Georgia growers and producers, improving access to healthcare for rural communities, and tackling affordability challenges across the state. Bottoms also responds to campaign attacks from her opponent, Republican Rick Jackson, and outlines the communities she is continuing to engage as the midterm election approaches.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greg Kelly criticizes what he describes as "non-apology apologies" from political figures like Joe Biden and Abdul El-Sayed, contrasting them with a more direct apology from Donald Trump. Greg also voices his disdain for antisemitism in the fashion world and the political activism seen at Hollywood award shows. Additional topics include leadership changes at the Pentagon, a controversial legal charge used for deadlocked juries, and viral videos involving unruly teenagers at fast-food restaurants.

What employers should know about key developments this week: NLRB Shifts to Republican Majority: The Senate confirmed David Prouty and James Macey to the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB" or "Board") in August, establishing Republican control with three Republican members among the four currently confirmed. General Counsel Crystal Carey has indicated her intent to present several decisions for the new majority to overturn, particularly the Cemex, Stericycle, and Thryv decisions from the Biden era. Chevron Deference Ends: Following the U.S. Supreme Court's Loper Bright ruling, courts are no longer required to defer to agency interpretations of ambiguous statutes. Circuit courts now have authority to reject NLRB positions that lack statutory support. DC Circuit Declines to Enforce "Successor Bar" Doctrine: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit refused to enforce a Board order based on the "successor bar" doctrine—a Board-created rule affecting when representation elections can proceed after a company acquisition. This decision is a clear sign of how the circuit courts can be expected to address the deference to be afforded to administrative agencies' statutory interpretations post-Loper Bright. In this episode of Employment Law This Week®, Epstein Becker Green attorneys Steven M. Swirsky and Erin E. Schaefer discuss the NLRB's new landscape under Republican control and how the end of Chevron deference affects agency interpretations. - Visit our site for this week's video edition and more news: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw446 Sign up for notifications: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit https://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com - Epstein Becker Green is a national law firm focused on health care and life sciences; employment, labor, and workforce management; and litigation and business disputes.

Pags starts with the House officially condemning socialism—but wait until you see how many lawmakers refused to support it. Then ICE operations ramp up in New York City as DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin details "Operation Rotten Apple," and Pags breaks down what is happening on the ground. Republicans have delivered on two huge promises—the border and bringing egg prices down—but Pags says the problems have shifted and the GOP still has a serious messaging problem. Then breaking news hits the show as the accused Charlie Kirk shooter pleads not guilty and is ordered to stand trial for murder. Plus, House Oversight Chairman James Comer joins Pags to talk about the vote condemning socialism, why John Thune is still leading the Senate, the midterms and a major unanswered question from the Biden years: What happened to the migrant children the government lost track of?

The H-1B system is being abused, and Americans are paying the price. Too many people assume that because immigrants enter the country “legally,” the system is working exactly as intended, when in reality they're finding loopholes and scamming America. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon joins me and is fighting to put Americans first and stop the abuse of a system that has gone unchecked for far too long. “Hurt people hurt people” might sound as simple as it is … unless you're Abdul El-Sayed, who always hides the crooked truth behind something that would otherwise seem hard to disagree with. This 9/11 terrorist sympathizer took down his tweets after finding out — shocker — Americans don't like terrorists. No surprise, these Islamified Democrats don't hold much value in their word, just going back and forth to whatever sounds best for supporters.The bar for Democrats is an elevator that just keeps going down. Somehow they always find ways to show they're victims, even coming up with new terms to explain their victimhood. We are still living with the crippling effects of the Biden administration. But the Trump administration is cracking down on illegal aliens getting CDLs and causing fatalities on the roads. ► Catch up on my H-1B visa investigations:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkJEwf2wliqrtNlYs9D78nmE_Gnja_PpC    ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area.   ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1    ►BlazeTV  BLAZETV.COM/SARA, and use promo code SARA for $20 off.

The Office of Management and Budget has officially released a memo directing agencies to expand the use of Login-dot-gov for user identity verification in a push to make it the universal sign-on for public services. In a six-page document dated Monday, OMB Director Russell Vought told agencies the absence of a clear strategy has led to agencies deploying various sign-on solutions and taking different approaches to digital identity management. Per the memo, that means users often need multiple sign-ons and the government pays more. “This policy enforces Login.gov as the universal sign-on for accessing public services online, enabling more seamless and efficient service delivery while safeguarding user privacy and supporting resilience against fraud and security threats,” Vought said in the memo. Official release of the policy comes after OMB recently circulated a draft version of the document to leaders for feedback. FedScoop obtained a copy of that draft and first reported on its contents last week. At the time, current and former officials viewed the policy as an effort to continue a longstanding push to establish a single sign-on for government. Login, which is run by the General Services Administration, was first envisioned under President Barack Obama, launched in 2017 during President Donald Trump's first term and continued under President Joe Biden. It was created after Congress required that agencies establish a single sign-on platform for government website logins. A newly released whistleblower complaint reveals details about the “rushed” effort by the Trump administration and U.S. Postal Service to install three new restrictive IT systems that would potentially deny thousands of mail-in ballots, if the federal government disagrees on their eligibility. According to the complaint, written by attorneys at the nonprofit Whistleblower Aid and released by Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., the individual is a federal employee with “direct knowledge of potentially catastrophic problems” related to USPS' handling of mail-in ballots for the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. The person claims that USPS is deploying entirely “new and untested” IT systems, including a new Federal Ballot Mail Portal that would potentially give USPS more control over when and whether states receive federal mail ballots for their voters. The disclosure describes the portal and other systems as “new IT systems and corresponding protocols [that] will govern the delivery of ballots to voters as soon as the 2026 mid-term federal elections and beyond.” It calls the development process “secretive, rushed, chaotic and fundamentally flawed,” and part of a larger effort by agency leaders to rush implementation of the system ahead of the 2026 elections.

Trump Isn't The Problem — Our Broken Institutions Are Everyone with a functioning brain is disgusted by Trump — alienating our allies, unjust wars, prices at the pump and grocery store skyrocketing, and dodging accountability on Epstein. But here's the uncomfortable truth: it's not his fault. So who IS to blame?

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for August 31, 2026. We open by digging into the Trump administration's crackdown on fraudulent commercial driving schools, walking through why English proficiency and real CDL training aren't bureaucratic red tape but a matter of public safety, and how the Biden-era rollback of licensing standards left blue states like New York, California, and Illinois with hundreds of noncompliant schools, thousands of unsafe drivers, and a real national security exposure tied to unaccountable 18-wheelers. From there we run through the Top 3 things you need to know: a new U.S.-Venezuela oil deal aimed at cutting China out of the picture, U.S. military strikes on Iranian targets in the Persian Gulf tied to sea-mine activity, and the federal shutdown of over a hundred more commercial trucking schools tied to unlicensed, non-English-speaking drivers. We touch on sports activism, from NFL end-zone messaging to Tennessee honoring Dolly Parton with a helmet sticker, before turning it over to our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, who take on a listener question about whether they'd write a child out of the will over socialism, plus a detour into trade schools, Mike Rowe, and the value of a good vocation. Digging Deep, we cover a New York assistant attorney general's viral internal email accusing AG Letitia James's office of manufacturing a case against Trump, and what happened to him within an hour of hitting send. We also look at President Trump's push to lure Canadian businesses south of the border, the "Best and Brightest" push to recruit sharp, fast-processing minds — including gamers — into air traffic control now that DEI mandates are gone, and a Texas Senate candidate's blunt new campaign pitch: vote for me, I'll raise your taxes. For our Bright Spot, we look at a year of data out of Texas A&M on school cell phone bans, and the real gains in grades, anxiety, and old-fashioned face-to-face friendship they're producing.

The time to reduce global emissions is decreasing rapidly. What does that mean for Ohio?In 2015, the United Nations Climate Change Conference brought world leaders together to discuss a treaty called the Paris Agreement, that would set global environmental standards in an effort to reduce the impact of climate change. The Paris Agreement established a goal of maintaining global temperatures below 2°C, or 3.6°F, above pre-industrial levels. As emissions continue to increase, world leaders and scientists have emphasized the need to stay within 1.5°C, or 2.4°C, to prevent irreversible environmental consequences. President Donald Trump officially withdrew the United States from the deal for the second time in January of this year. He first withdrew the U.S. in 2020, with former President Joe Biden reversing that decision during his presidency. The climate clock hit its three-year mark earlier this year, indicating the time left to reduce global emissions before our planet reaches the critical temperature is dwindling. It can seem like Ohioans aren't feeling the impact of climate change, but experts say that's far from the case. Guests:- Jeff Opperman, Ph.D, Global Freshwater Lead Scientist, World Wildlife Fund- Aaron Wilson, Ph.D, State Climatologist of Ohio; Assistant Professor & Ag Weather and Climate Field Specialist, The Ohio State University Climate change and environmental advocacy in Northeast OhioAs global temperatures close in on the 1.5-degree Celsius threshold, the impact is being felt throughout Northeast Ohio. Increased rainfall, higher temperatures and harsher winters threaten Ohio wildlife, its agriculture industry and its residents. As farmers grapple with the effect these changes are having on their crops and food production, local climate activists are working with policymakers and community members to create a sustainable region built on climate resilience.

Episode 305-BACK TO BASICS Also Available OnSearchable Podcast Transcript Gun Lawyer — Episode Transcript Page – 1 – of 9 Gun Lawyer — Episode 305 Transcript SUMMARY KEYWORDS Gun laws, New Jersey, Machine guns, Handguns, Rifles, Shotguns, Assault firearms, Legal exemptions, Carry permits, Firearm ID, Second Amendment, Defensive use, CDC data, Gun rights, Application errors SPEAKERS Evan Nappen, Speaker 2 Evan Nappen 00:18 I’m Evan Nappen, and welcome to Gun Lawyer. So, my cohort in crime, Teddy, will not be joining us on the show today because Teddy is a brand new daddy. That’s right, he’s a father of a beautiful baby girl, which of course makes me a grandfather. Oh my God, I can’t even believe I’m saying that. She is just cute as a button, and I’m not just saying that because it’s my granddaughter. She really is. Her name is Alianna, and we are all so excited and happy about this. I can’t even begin to tell you. But Teddy has got his hands full with his beautiful wife and his beautiful new daughter, so I will be flying solo today with you. Evan Nappen 01:17 at I want to talk about is something important for gun owners in New Jersey to know, and even outside New Jersey. And that is the basics of how New Jersey bans all guns, and then creates a legal system that essentially allows and permits possession by exemption. I think this is why the entire foundation of New Jersey gun laws can eventually be completely wiped out because it takes what is a constitutional right and just reverses how that right is supposed to work. But nonetheless, the law is something you need to understand in New Jersey. And for those who don’t live in New Jersey, you want to understand this so you don’t ever see this happen in your jurisdiction. Evan Nappen 02:18 he place to begin is under New Jersey law, under N.J.S. 2C:39-5 (Unlawful possession of weapons.). Now, the 39-5. gun laws in New Jersey are where you see basically every firearm banned. Then the exemptions get created in two ways that essentially permit limited possession. It’s really insane when you think that a constitutional right is treated in this way, but yet it is. So, let’s take a look, beginning with 39-5., 2C:39-5. Now, subsection a. is a ban on machine guns, and what it says there is that any person who knowingly has in his possession any machine gun or any instrument or device adaptable for use as a machine gun, without being licensed to do so pursuant to (2C:)58-5, is guilty of a crime of the second degree. So, the only way to possess a machine gun in New Jersey is if you have a 58-5. machine gun license, and the machine gun license historically has been an impossibility to obtain. Page – 2 – of 9 Evan Nappen 03:51 But interestingly, I think we’re going to see some serious challenges because the way New Jersey structured this law, the machine gun license required you first to get a carry permit. At the time, virtually no one could get a (New Jersey permit to) carry. Now, over 100,000 Jerseyans and non-residents do have carry permits, and the standard that you’re left with the machine gun license is quite bizarre of having to show somehow it’s in the public interest for you to have it. And that’s absolutely contrary to Bruen, but for now, the number one thing to keep in mind is the machine gun prohibition does not have any other exemptions within New Jersey law. Only this license is the exemption. And when I say no other exemption, I’m talking about for an otherwise law-abiding citizen to possess. There are exemptions for certain military, police, etc. There’s exemptions even for dealers, but we’re not focused on that. We’re focused on other normal, law-abiding, average citizens. So, forget about it for machine guns. Evan Nappen 05:02 But let’s move now to the b. section of 39-5. Now that’s one that applies to a hell of a lot of folks in New Jersey. The b. section of 39-5 is handguns. Listen to how New Jersey bans handguns. New Jersey’s law says: Handguns. Any person who knowingly has in his possession any handgun, including any antique handgun, without having first obtained a permit to carry the same as provided in (2C:)58-4., is guilty of a crime of the second degree. Let that sink in, folks. The only way you can lawfully possess a handgun, possess. We’re not even talking about carry. The only way to lawfully possess that handgun on the face of the statute that prohibits the possession of a handgun is if you have a (New Jersey) permit to carry a handgun. Evan Nappen 06:06 Now I know there are a lot of folks out there that don’t have permits to carry that simply acquired a handgun with a permit to purchase a handgun. So, how can this be? How can you lawfully possess that handgun if you don’t have a carry permit when the statute requires you to have a carry permit? And if you don’t have a carry permit, you’re guilty of unlawful possession of a handgun right on the face of the statute, which is an extraordinarily serious offense. Unlawful possession of a handgun in New Jersey is a second-degree crime. New Jersey doesn’t use the term felony. They use the term crime, but it’s the equivalent of a felony. You can think of it in that way. It carries up to 10 years in State Prison, and it has a minimum mandatory three and a half years under what is called the Graves Act. Where if you’re convicted of unlawful possession of a handgun after a trial, a judge has absolutely zero discretion and must impose at least three and a half years as a minimum component of your sentence with no ability to be paroled. You do every day of that three and a half years before you’re even eligible for parole. Evan Nappen 07:31 So, since you have to have a carry to possess it, what about everyone who doesn’t? Well, the answer to that lies in the exemptions, and we’ll get to the exemptions in a moment because we’re going to talk about exemptions. But right now, we’re just talking about the statute itself that mandates a (New Jersey) carry permit in order to legally possess a handgun. Under subsection c., is rifles and shotguns, and there it says: any person who knowingly has in his possession any rifle or shotgun without having first obtained a firearm purchaser ID card in accordance with (2C:)58-3, is guilty of a crime of the third degree. So, that makes it a third degree crime, up to five years in State Prison, if you have a shotgun or Page – 3 – of 9 rifle without a firearm ID card. The law goes further to say, unless otherwise permitted by law, any person who knowingly has in his possession any loaded rifle or shotgun is guilty of a crime in third degree. So, what about those that possess rifles or shotguns without a firearms ID card? Well, on the face of this statute, you’re looking at up to five years in State Prison. However, we’re going to discuss the exemptions, and the exemptions are critical in understanding how these possessory laws actually work. Even though the exemptions are technically a defense that you, as a law-abiding citizen, can be put to the proofs where you have to prove the defense. Evan Nappen 09:03 Then there’s subsection d. of 39-5. Subsection d. is “other weapons”, and that says: any person who knowingly has in his possession any other weapon under circumstances not manifestly appropriate for such lawful uses as it may have, is guilty of a crime of the fourth degree. So, that’s up to a year and a half in State Prison for any “other weapon”, anything that may be construed as a weapon, if it’s possessed under circumstances not manifestly appropriate for such lawful uses as it may have. Look at that vague, ridiculous language there. So, anything that can be construed to be a weapon, and then the circumstances not manifestly appropriate become subject for a jury trial. So that 12 people who aren’t smart enough to avoid jury duty get to decide whether those circumstances were manifestly appropriate or not. Isn’t that cute? And you need to further know that New Jersey case law, through Kelly and Montalvo, they found that the so-called circumstance is not manifestly appropriate for such lawful uses as it may have. In Kelly, the court specifically found that self-defense was not a manifestly appropriate lawful use. Imagine that! You cannot preemptively arm yourself with a weapon under Kelly. Self-defense doesn’t cut it. But then Kelly got modified with Montalvo. If it’s in your home, if it’s in your home and you have it for self-defense, then the court actually finally came to its senses, at least on that, and said, yeah, self-defense possession in your home is manifestly appropriate circumstances, but not outside the home. So, we still need a case that says outside the home, where you’re lawfully allowed to use self-defense, where you have a right to self-defense. That even outside the home, it’s a manifestly appropriate use for any other weapon. We’ll talk more about that one in the future. Okay, but there you go. Those are the prohibitions. Evan Nappen 11:32 Then, of course, we have the infamous subsection f., and that’s where assault firearms are banned. It says: any person who knowingly has in his possession an assault firearm is guilty of a crime of the second degree. Again, that draconian Graves Act, up to 10 years, minimum mandatory three and a half. Except if the assault firearm is licensed pursuant to (2C:)58-5. And by the way, that’s the same license as a machine gun license, which virtually no one could ever get. Or rendered inoperable, and that render inoperable period went from May of ’90 to May of ’91. And you had to do a rendered inoperable form. If you didn’t do it then, you’re out of the box. You couldn’t do it. Or if it was registered. Again, that registration period expired back in ’90. It may have ’90 to ’91 as well. So, assault firearms became prohibited with no way of making them lawful after May of ’91, unless you could somehow get an assault firearm license, which was a de facto impossibility, a de facto ban. Evan Nappen 12:52 In fact, as determined in the federal court decision Coalition versus Florio that I brought, it was determined that it was a de facto ban. So, that license is known, you know, essentially it was viewed as Page – 4 – of 9 fake in so many words. You know, yeah, good luck. Like it was just structured to be an impossibility and even recognized as such by essentially by the court. So, if you had an assault firearm, there was nothing that could be done there. Exemptions that we’re going to discuss next do not apply to assault firearms. he exemptions only apply to B, C, and D. So remember, B. is the ban on handguns unless you have a (New Jersey) carry permit. C. is a ban on rifles and shotguns unless you have a firearms ID card, and D. is a ban on “other weapons” without manifest lawful purpose. Evan Nappen 13:52 However, what the statute in 39-5 does not reference, but you need to know, is that under N.J.S. 2C:39-6, you will find an entire host of exemptions. There’s exemptions for law enforcement, military, all kinds, tons of exemptions. But the exemptions that have the most bearing to the average, law-abiding citizen, they’re found in subsection e. and subsection f. of the exemptions. Let me read you what these exemptions say. The exemptions say that nothing in subsection b., c., and d. of 39-5, so that is handguns, rifles and shotguns, and other weapons under the 39-5 ban, shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about the person’s place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by the person, any firearm, or from carrying the same, in the manner specified in subsection g., which is unloaded and in a case or in the trunk, or in a securely wrapped package, from any place of purchase to the person’s residence or place of business, between the person’s dwelling and place of business, between one place of business or residence and another when moving, or between the person’s dwelling or place of business and place where the firearms are repaired, for the purpose of repair. For the purposes of this section, a place of business shall be deemed to be a fixed location. Evan Nappen 15:42 So, subsection e. of 39-6 exempts law-abiding citizens in New Jersey for possession of handguns, rifles and shotguns, and other weapons in their home, and you do not need a (New Jersey) carry permit. You do not need a firearms ID card. You do not need to have manifest lawful purpose, so-called. As long as you are simply possessing in your home, you are exempted from those requirements under 39-5. It is a law that allows possession by exemption unless one has licenses, and if you have licenses, then you’re exempt under the face of the statute. And if you have a license and you’re within exemption, you have double protection, essentially. And the exemption under subsection e. applies to home. It applies to place of business. Now that means a business you actually own. It’s not just the place you work. It’s got to be your place of business that you own. The courts have narrowly interpreted it to mean that. Not even a place you just manage. You’ve got to be an owner. It’s got to be your business. But if it is, then you have exemption there. You’re exempted for moving between your residences while moving, etc. That’s the exemption under subsection e. Evan Nappen 17:22 Then there’s an exemption under subsection f., and f. again exempts b., c., and d. of 39-5; handguns, rifles and shotguns, and other weapons under 39-5. ere the exemptions say that those prohibitions shall not apply to any member of a rifle or pistol club organized in accordance with the rules prescribed by the National Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice, in going to or from a place of target practice, carrying firearms necessary for target practice, provided the club has filed a copy of its charter with the superintendent and annually submits its list of members to the superintendent, and provided further that Page – 5 – of 9 the firearms are carried in a manner specified in subsection g., which is, of course, cased and unloaded. Evan Nappen 18:08 Here’s another exemption under f. under subsection (2). A person carrying a firearm or knife in the woods or fields, or upon the waters of the state for the purpose of hunting, target practice, or fishing, provided that the firearm is or knife is legal and appropriate for hunting and fishing purposes in the state, and the person has in the person’s possession a valid hunting license, or with respect to freshwater fishing, a valid fishing license. Number three, a person transporting any firearm or knife while traveling directly to or from place for purpose of hunting, fishing, provided you have a valid license, or directly to or from the target range, or other authorized place, for the purpose of practice match target trap skeet shooting expeditions. Provided during that whole time you’re transporting, you’re transporting pursuant to subsection g. Evan Nappen 19:18 So, the takeaway here is how New Jersey bans essentially all guns, and how the matrix is set up so that there are exemptions. Exemptions that we’ve just talked about. But keep in mind that the exemptions are a defense. The burden becomes on the defendant to have to prove that you’re within those exemptions. Otherwise you see bans. Bans that have only exemptions by way of licensing, unless you fall within those specific statutory exemptions. I think that structure is frankly disgusting as to how a constitutional right is and has been treated by New Jersey. But because of that structure, I also believe that we have a fantastic opportunity now as we see the empowerment of the Second Amendment to finally take out and take down the very foundation of New Jersey’s oppressive gun laws. Evan Nappen 20:36 By the way, I want to give you just a little heads up about a threat that is apparently lurking. This is weird and odd. I can’t hammer it down any more than what I’m going to tell you right now. But the news aggregate source called the Daily Caller, some of you may be aware of it, had an article that says “Anti-2A Group Plots New Gun Ban in New Jersey”. (https://dailycaller.com/2026/08/26/anti-2a-group-plots-new-gun-ban-in-blue-state/) This is August 26, 2026, by Harold Hutchison, who is a Second Amendment reporter that says the gun-control organization March for Our Lives, that’s the group headed up by that A one a hole of David Hogg. His group sent out an email fundraiser announcing plans to pass a weapons ban in New Jersey. And reading this is just bizarro. Remember Hogg has made his entire life and career over being a perpetual victim from the Parkland atrocity, and he’s an insane Left wing activist. By the way, if you’ve ever seen the stuff that he puts out. But anyway, this group uses this term “weapons of war”, “weapons of war”, and says, “The proposed weapons ban in New Jersey is a vital step toward getting weapons off our streets and protecting our neighborhoods from preventable tragedy.” This is a fundraiser being done by this group. Evan Nappen 22:49 When you look at the actual screenshot here from March for Our Lives, here’s what this screenshot says. From March for Our Lives. “We’re bumping this to the top of your inbox because we have a genuine, high-impact opportunity to push real gun safety forward — and we can’t afford to miss it. Right now, New Jersey lawmakers have a chance to pass critical legislation banning weapons of war from Page – 6 – of 9 our communities. When our generation first marched in 2018, people told us we were just angry kids who didn’t understand how politics worked. But together, we’ve proved that hope isn’t just a feeling — it’s an action.” And then it goes on to say, “From helping establish first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to passing landmark federal legislation, we’ve seen what happens when young people organize and demand a better future. Passing this weapons ban in New Jersey isn’t just about one state — it sets a benchmark for the entire nation and proves that progress is unstoppable when we stand together.” Then it all says, “Will you take 10 seconds to add your name and show support for the NJ weapons ban today?” Evan Nappen 24:19 Okay. I’ve got to tell you, folks. I have no clue what the hell they’re talking about. First of all, New Jersey already has the most egregious assault firearm ban on the books and that has just taken a death punch by the Third Circuit Court of Appeals en banc with the magnificent decision wiping it out under the Second Amendment with both mags and guns. Now, granted, it is stayed at the moment because the Supreme Court has also taken up this issue. But what the hell are they talking about? New Jersey’s law is on its deathbed. It’s on life support, barely. Soon to die, and they’re talking about legislators in New Jersey promoting some weapons ban that they’re fundraising on. This is either complete fraud, which who knows with those people, or absolute mistake that they’ve confused states, I guess. Or maybe, just maybe, something else is cooking up in the New Jersey legislature. Maybe they’re tipped off to it, and I can’t find it anywhere. Maybe they’re going to try doing a kicking and screaming routine, just like they did after Bruen permitted carry and made it so New Jersey had to issue carry permits. And maybe now we’re going to see some evil plan after New Jersey’s assault firearm law bites the dust. So, this is maybe a load of B.S. nonsense. But then again, maybe it’s something out there, and we should be ready. hey may be trying to pull another Carry Killeresque maneuver on us. I don’t know, but stay tuned. As soon as we hear about anything that we can pin down, we’ll be sure in letting you know about it on the show. Evan Nappen 26:36 Hey, I want to tell you about our good friends at WeShoot. WeShoot is an indoor range in Lakewood, New Jersey. It’s the range where Teddy and I shoot, and where we train. You’ll love it at WeShoot. It is the greatest range in New Jersey.

The indispensable guidebook to helping you navigate New Jersey’s insane matrix of gun laws. It’s all set up in a question and answer format. I also want folks to know that the DOJ has opened up the Federal Relief from Disabilities Program. I’ve been waiting 33 years to be able to do this again, and that is be able to get people’s gun rights restored. That have had federal firearm prohibitors. This will restore your federal gun rights, and it is great. We really owe it to the Trump administration for reopening this program that was killed in ’93 by Chuck Schumer. For 33 years, people have been unable to regain their Second Amendment rights under federal law, if they had prohibitors. o, if you or anyone you know might be eligible, go to my website, go to EvanNappen.com. You can buy my book there. You can also read about the federal relief from disabilities. This is very hot, big stuff going on because the online portal is going to open shortly, and you want to be ready. You want to have counsel, and there’s a lot that has to get done so that we can get you in. They’re talking about probably a million people needing to get their rights restored, and it’s going to be quite a logjam. So, the sooner you’re in, the sooner you can get your rights back. I’d highly, highly recommend taking action and checking it out. Go to evannappen.com, and I’ll be happy to speak to you about your specific situation and if it’s applicable for you. Evan Nappen 31:40 Hey, I have some good news, and the good news is that the CDC, you know, the CDC, who’s currently headed by Robert Kennedy, and CDC that is now under the Trump administration. Well, guess what they did, folks? They restored defensive gun use data after Biden scrubbed it and covered it up because they didn’t want that really great important information being out there about how many lives guns save, so the corrupt Biden administration just said we’re not going to talk about it. We’re going to wipe it out. We’re not going to put that out there anymore. We’re only going to talk about guns are bad, and not ever talk about why guns are good. Well, it’s a new day. It’s a new administration, and that information has now been put back. I’m talking about an article here from Ammo and. (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/08/cdc-restores-defensive-gun-use-data/?utm_source=Ammoland+Subscribers&utm_campaign=b4aea4936c-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_6f6fac3eaa-b4aea4936c-21268623) Evan Nappen 32:56 We love AmmoLand, and this article is by John Crump, who is also one of my favorite authors at AmmoLand. John says that under the Biden administration they had removed the data, and the studies have shown that guns were used in self-defense between 60,000 times and 2.5 million times each year. Think about that, folks. 60,000 to 2.5 million times each year, guns are used in self-defense. So, even at the low range, that dwarfs the number of guns used in murders, which is approximately 15,000. Okay, dwarfs it at the lowest numbers. It approaches or exceeds the total number of gun deaths per year, which is around 40,000, according to Pew. The wide range of estimates is because of different methodologies used. So, the lower figure is drawn on the National Crime Victimization Survey, while the higher figures primarily stem from surveys conducted by criminologist Gary Kleck in the 1990s. Page – 8 – of 9 Evan Nappen 34:41 Now, a National Academies of Sciences report commissioned by the CDC itself in 2013, this is a CDC commission study. Referenced this range of 60,000 to 2.5 million defensive gun uses annually. But in 2022, with pressure from anti-gun groups such as the Gun Violence Archive, the Newtown Action Alliance, and GVPedia, in a private meeting, the CDC scrubbed the website of defensive gun use information. Through a Freedom of Information Act, they revealed that the removal was purely political, folks, and this is all according to emails that Senator Grassley obtained. One of these things here argued, and this is quoting from that email in the article by Mr. Crump, and it says. Get a load of this. This is from the antis here. “That 2.5 million number needs to be killed, buried, dug up, killed again, and buried again.” Mark Bryant, executive director of Gun Violence Archives, wrote to the CDC in one of his emails. See that? They don’t like it, man, when you’re showing that guns save lives. We can’t have truth out there. We can’t have the actual information about how people don’t want to be victims but would prefer to be defenders and live. Right? That’s Biden’s administration for you. That’s the corrupt, evil Biden administration for you, removing that information. Trump and his administration have put that data back public so you can see it and you can read it. Keep in mind that’s the CDC removing specific numeral range and the link from their own research, folks. But now, under Trump and Secretary Kennedy, the CDC is returning the statistics to its firearm injury and death page. The restored language again makes it clear, points it out that defensive gun use varies by studies, and it ranges from 60,000 to 2.5 million per year. That is awesome, and that information belongs out there. Evan Nappen 37:43 Hey, let me tell you about this week’s GOFU. GOFUs, as you know, are Gun Owner Fuck Ups. It’s where gun owners make expensive mistakes, real mistakes that I hear about and try to help them. But it’s a chance where you can avoid them for free, and this week’s GOFU has to do with references on your gun application. When you need references, please clear your references in advance. Make sure your references know you’re going to use them as a reference. I’ll tell you, we may have mentioned this before in the past, but it can’t hurt to mention it again. They’re going to get an email requesting to know how long they’ve known you and whether they have any issues with you owning guns. I get cases where people don’t bother to clear it, don’t realize the person is anti-gun and doesn’t think anyone should have a gun, or has some problem being a reference. You don’t want to have that problem. Evan Nappen 38:48 Yet recently, I’ve heard of even a worse problem, and this one is just mind-boggling. I’m still going to put it out there as a GOFU for folks because don’t ever do this. Don’t make up false references. Yeah, I’m not kidding. Do not fill out a gun application with fake references. I can’t believe I even have to say this. But do not fill out a gun application and make up phony references because your phony references are going to be contacted, and that’s called falsification of the application. It’s a crime to do that. Third degree. You’re looking at five years in State Prison. Plus, it’s really stupid, and you’ll get denied your gun license. I mean, okay, do you have to write that one down? Not to put fake references on your application? I hope not, but it’s a GOFU. Make sure you’re good about your references and clear them in advance. Only put real ones down, folks. Page – 9 – of 9 Evan Nappen 39:54 This is Evan Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, Rich Valdes fills in for Mark. Democrats are attacking President Trump for wanting to end mail-in voting, even though it is widely recognized around the world as promoting fraud. It's absurd that Democrats label requirements to vote in person and show ID as racist or unconstitutional.  This midterm election is good versus evil - the contrast has never been clearer given the Democrats widespread support of socialism and communism.  Also, illegal immigration remains the larger issue in America. The affordability crisis traces back to Joe Biden's introduction of millions of new people via illegal immigration. Later, AOC's claims that guaranteed healthcare for every American is a right rather than a privilege. Declaring healthcare a right will quickly expand into demands for other “rights,” including housing of one's choosing. AOC openly embraces her communist views that the government should meet every basic need. Afterward, musician Jelly Roll is facing backlash for criticizing Trump and mocking his weight.  Why would a Nashville country artist risk alienate a largely conservative Tennessee audience? Entertainers are free to take political stands but must know whether their audience will remain after they do so. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, what is in the president's mail-in voting executive order? It ensures voter integrity and the requirements are common sense, yet Democrats and their media lie about it as an effort to stop women and people of color from voting and call it a grave threat. The Democrats and their slip-and-fall lawyers always seem to be on the side of the cheaters but claim they are just looking out for the rest of us. This executive order is perfectly legitimate. Also, a leaked CBC memo instructed reporters ahead of the 25th anniversary of 9/11 not to refer to the attacks as terrorist attacks, instead describing hijackings that led to passenger jet crashes in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, and Manhattan that destroyed the World Trade Center. If 9/11 is not terrorism then terrorism does not exist. The left and Islamists in media allow this insanity to spread like poison.  Later, people aren't reading books, especially young people, so they lack independent information and don't understand the history of socialism; they aren't taught it and are instead taught that socialism is fantastic. Many do not know what happened in the Holocaust or the Civil War's massive battles to preserve the Union and end slavery, nor why the Electoral College or the Senate exist. As a result they listen to Rasputin-type figures and radical anti-American faculty with tenure become the only source they have, leaving them without enough knowledge to push back. Afterward, the Democrats did everything they could to stop Ronald Reagan from pursuing the Strategic Defense Initiative, which led to Patriot missiles, among other life-saving technologies. The media regurgitated the Democrats' talking points, and mocked Reagan and "Star Wars."  The Democrats, the media, and the Woke Reich isolations opposed significant increases in our defense budget, which has been shrinking as a percentage of GDP for some time. Meanwhile,  Barack Obama and Biden changed names on forts, ships, mountains. They changed nouns and pronouns. But Trump changes names to promote America and these same people lose what's left of their minds. Finally, Jon Husted calls in to discuss his Senate run against Sherrod Brown in Ohio. Brown tries to portray himself as a moderate but he's a liberal. Husted says the Democratic Socialists are taking over the Democratic party. They want to make us less free and take more control over your money and your future. Husted supports President Trump's polices on the border, trans athletes in women's sports and so one.
