In the age of sound bites and media clips, it is easy to be confused or misled about the immigration crisis. It is even more difficult during a tumultuous election season when very few media outlets provide truth to the American people. How can you know the facts? The best way to discern truth from error is to gather first-hand accounts from those who have lived and/or worked at the border over many years and through several administrations. Linda’s guest, Rodney Scott, is the Retired Chief of t...

Our nation is suffering. We have wars and rumors of wars, record breaking inflation, a border crisis, and increasing violent crime across the country.

There has never been a better time to invest in Made in America businesses that support the values and principles that have made this nation great. Linda interviews Matthew Smith, President of Public Square Advisors. Public Square is America’s Marketplace and ...

It seems only common-sense to make sure that only American citizens vote in American elections. Legal immigrants who become citizens are welcomed and encouraged to vote, however the law is very clear regarding consequences for non-citizen voters. The flood of illegal immigrants entering our nation due to open-border policies is a danger to the integrity of our elections, especially when the new immigrants are encouraged to vote without fully understanding the laws. We must not only protect the i...

Every election is important, and our founders created a system that protects the rights of people to choose their elected officials. Freedom to vote is a right not given in every country, yet it is often taken for granted and we have not always guarded our votes with the care and protection needed. Most Americans want free, fair, honest, transparent elections, but unfortunately, that is not always the reality. Linda and her guest, Cleta Mitchell, discuss the importance of election integrity and ...

The issue of human trafficking, especially the abusive sexual trafficking of women and children, is inextricably linked to current soft-on-crime policies at our open border, and it is also linked to our educational system and culture as we have allowed young children to be exposed to inappropriate sexual content in the classroom and in media. Sexual abuse is rampant, and music and entertainment options often contribute to the problem. Linda’s guest, Mary Bawden, is an author, teacher, and dance ...

If you are a business owner, you have been bitten by the entrepreneur bug. Even if you are not an entrepreneur, you may have thought about starting your own business. Entrepreneurship drives the economy as ideas blossom into profitable companies, which then provide jobs for people of all ages and taxes to contribute to the overall economy. The teaching of basic entrepreneurship skills has been sorely missing from most school curriculums for decades, and additional burdens have been placed on bus...

Complacency kills. We can apply that truth to nearly every area of life. As our nation has spiraled into chaos, it is becoming more and more apparent that citizen apathy and complacency have allowed it to progress. Many do not speak up due to fear of being cancelled, slandered, or put out of business. Fear has silenced far too many wise patriots who need to have a voice for the preservation of our nation. Complacency kills, but courage is contagious. Listen as Linda interviews Bill Brewer, a cou...

There’s a dangerous trend of censorship happening across America and around the world. Free speech and the freedom to conduct commerce are severely curtailed by over-zealous, power-hungry governments intent on silencing anyone in opposition to globalist elite narratives. Many innocent law-abiding, patriotic people have been censored, cancelled, de-banked, put out of business, or even jailed because of their political views. While we see the dramatic effects of such lawfare playing out in the pre...

Freedom is never free. It is fought for on battlefields, in courtrooms and government hearing rooms, and through education and airwaves as people throughout the ages have sought to be free. Globalist elites have been working diligently to gain power and control of people across the world through various treaties and agreements decided by unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats who are eager to micromanage every aspect of our lives. How can we stop them and preserve our liberty? In this important, t...

The threat of terrorism within our borders has increased dramatically due to open border policies of the current administration.

It has often been assumed that a member of a union would always vote Democrat. If the union told them to vote Democrat, they did it. It was the union way. No questions, just allegiance. However, that paradigm may be shifting as union members around the country are realizing the policies the union supports are not always the policies that help businesses thrive or families to flourish. What is causing this shift? What is it like to be a union member in this era of cultural upheaval? These questio...

United we stand, divided we fall. This is true in families, corporations, and countries. When it comes to winning the current culture war, we must unite around foundational principles that made our nation great. We must not let enemies of freedom divide us, break down our resistance, or weaken our energy to stand firm. America is not as divided as many in media and power would like us to believe, and we must unite to promote policies of freedom and dispel exaggerated accounts of division. Linda’...

If our goal is to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat, then we need to be well informed about Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) and other election integrity issues that can jeopardize the impact of our vote.

RCV is overly complicated and not very popular among most...
