Friday’s tend to be the day where I catch up on news items I wanted to cover, but had to push them back for other, more pressing stories. It’s also the day where my patrons, who support the show at a tier 2 or higher get their shout out. The first topic today is a reflection of the news cycle around hurricane Ian. Natural disasters are always just that – a disaster caused by Mother Nature. In no way am I trying to make light of or lessen the impact any storm has on a community, state or region. ...

I open today’s show with the concept that appears difficult for the Joe Biden regime to process – You cannot dig your way out of a hole. It seems simple enough. If you are in a hole, the only way to get out of it is to either fill it or climb. But, they believe in digging and digging and then digging more. Yesterday I played a verbal gaffe from President Joe Biden where he asked if Jackie (Walorski) was in the room. Unfortunately, the representative had been killed in a car accident at the begin...

Today’s show focuses entirely on the sabotage of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines from Monday of this week. I need to be very clear from the beginning, no one has the full picture, yet, and no one knows who is behind the apparent explosions that ruptured the lines. While it is easy to point the figure at President Vladimir Putin of Russia, we have to be open to the notion others may also have something to gain. What I attempt to do today is walk through the “What if’s…” surrounding this story. ...

Today’s show is all about how the Left only has lies to sell, lies to tell, and lies still to invent. They have no positives on which to run. All they have is fear and a promise that only they can keep you safe. That’s it. Fear and control. I open reminding you of some very basic metrics for where we all were at the start of 2020. Inflation was at 1.4%, the average price for a gallon of gasoline was $2.39 and the Dow Jones was at 31,188 and climbing. In fact, the economy was on such a trajectory...

For today’s show, I open with a bit of a recap of how I ended the last show. We keep hearing President Joe Biden’s warning about the “extremists” who are an enemy to Democracy. I started to look at what those planks or policies are, which were drawing such condemnation. The list starts with freedom and limited government and moved on to strong borders, a strong national identity and giving parents control over their children. None of these are extreme, unless your agenda is prevented by them. Wh...

Today we look at the party who is always first to cry, “Trust the science,” yet they always seem to be the first to ignore it when the facts run contrary to their preferred narrative. After all, they think men can become women (and vice versa) just be declaring it, a vaccine that doesn’t work is the only solution and a beating heart is indicative of life until it’s no longer convenient. We have to start with a revisit to the ludicrous comment of Stacey Abrams, who is running for the governor of ...

For today’s show, I decided to provide a continuing mountain of evidence that the Left, led by the Biden regime, does not want to see the Constitution win in November. They are in an all out war with Constitutional Americans solely to retain their power and to keep lining their purse-strings. I start with the mentally unhinged NY AG who put together over 250 pages in her brief about why she is going to take down Donald Trump, his company and his family. Bear in mind, she is not doing this in cri...

Today’s show is why you should be tuned in every day to The Alan Sanders Show. We get hit with so many individual news stories each day, it’s hard to keep track of them all. It’s even hard, then, to keep the context of the overall narrative fresh in our minds when we are hit with “breaking” news by the hour. Today is a perfect chance for me to circle around and tie together what the Leftists have been doing and to point out their obvious objective. We start with the bigot, Don Lemon of CNN. Lemo...

Before I get in to the meat of today’s show, I open with some of our fine friends across the pond who wanted to acknowledge the presence of President Joe Brandon in London. Mentally unwell Leftists will have you believe Joe Biden has restored respect for the office of the Presidency around the world. Well, the, “Let’s Go Brandon!” chants seem to reflect a different reality. We then move to this preposterous notion that Ron DeSantis is going to be criminally investigated by a Sheriff from Texas. ...

Today we open with some of the sound bites from last night’s 60 Minutes show with President Joe Biden. Remember when 60 Minutes would ask tough questions and have even tougher follow-ups? Those days are no longer here, ate least while a Democrat is in office. First, President Biden has been allowed to redefine what constitutes a recession. We have had 6 months in a row of negative Gross Domestic Product and Joe thinks we have a hot economy. 60 Minutes asked what he was doing to help prevent a re...

Who knew Martha's Vineyard was such a deplorable wasteland of cruelty? Listening to Leftists and elitists over the last 48 hours has me so confused. I thought it was funny to see them lighting their own heads on fire yesterday, but it’s gone to ULTRA levels, now. We start off with Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, calling the move of 50 migrants from Florida to Martha’s Vineyard, “...a cruel, inhumane way of treating people...who were promised a home, promised a job...put on a bus and, you kno...

On today’s show, we deal with the ongoing crisis related to our open southern border and the ineffectual leadership we have in our Democrat-run cities and in the White House. After years of trying to get some resolution, the governors in Arizona, Texas and Florida and showing us that folks who declare themselves as “Sanctuary Cities” are suddenly declaring a crisis when forced to put their money where their mouth is. Before we dive into the border crisis, I do need to get somewhat local as it re...

Well, I guess I should be happy to say I was right on target with my prediction at the close of yesterday’s show. President Joe Biden, with a disastrous core CPI number for August and a tanking stock market, took to the White House lawn and gave himself and democrats a collective high-five! He really did take a victory lap over the signing of the Inflation Reduction Act four weeks ago. Like something out of a Mel Brooks comedy, the chyron graphic at the bottom of the screen was showing the real-...

We open today with the monthly inflation report and it is not good. Before I dive into the numbers and bring you the reality of just how bad it is, I remind you through a montage of soundbites what the “Wizards of Smart” in the Biden regime have been trying to tell us since May of 2021. They have been wrong about everything. But, the media and die-hard Leftists still cling to their words as if they are Gospel. Just this past Sunday, on State of the Union, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen tried to...

Today’s show returns to a discussion over public health and the one-size-fits-all approach they took in dealing with the pandemic. It’s obvious, by now, we were sold a bill of goods. Websites are being updated. Therapeutics which were mocked even earlier this year have been quietly added to the NIH and CDC websites. Fact-check statements about mRNA have been removed and more studies continue to show the side-effects and dangers of the mRNA vaccines far out-weigh any dangers from actual infection...

To wrap up the week, I wanted to hit several stories that all share a somewhat common thread. Each news items reveals how the Left is dealing with a series of unfortunate events. First up, and to continue illustrating the harm caused by a media no longer interested in truth, I share a piece revealing 1/3 of democrats and 41% of MSNBC viewers believe Florida requires university professors and students to register their political views with the state. Where did this lie begin? We can thank a tweet...
Sep 09, 2022•32 min•Season 4Ep. 180
Today I wanted to talk about the 4th Estate and how they have abdicated their responsibility to tell the truth. Our Founding Fathers were so concerned about keeping the government honest, they literally carved out a protection for the press to be able to report on government without fear of reprisal. But, when the Legacy/mainstream media decides to become the propaganda wing of the Democrat party, then we have found the root to so much vitriol and division in our country. To provide an example, ...

Before I get to the meat of today’s show, I did have to open with more examples of the dangers of magic-thinking on behalf of our elected (or appointed) leaders. The EU, after embracing short-sighted energy policies, are asking people to limit their use of electricity or gas in order to (where have you heard this before) flatten the curve. Chinese spy banger, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) mocked Governor Abbott of Texas two months ago for daring to allow people to leave their thermostats unchecked. ...

Today’s show opens with a review of term I use often when dealing with Leftists – magic-thinking. It goes hand-in-hand with another phrase I often use to describe the juvenile thinking and behaviors in the current regime. While magic-thinking is great for actors and for young children who engage in make-believe, it is dangerous when embodied by those in government. A politician suffering from and over-abundance of magic-thinking, often uses the power of their position to force that thinking onto...

Today’s show opens with a White House desperately trying to gaslight Americans over the tone and messaging in the Thursday night speech Biden delivered to the nation in prime time. Over the weekend, President Biden was asked if he really felt Trump supporters were a threat to our nation? Biden shot back, “I don’t consider any Trump supporter a threat to the country.” Yet, when we go to the prepared speech delivered Thursday night, he specifically said, “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans repr...

Well, folks, I called it on yesterday’s show. President Joe Biden’s campaign speech was dark, depressing, foreboding and angry. Whomever on his team thought dark red lighting against stark brick walls and harsh shadows and silhouettes was going to be positive and uplifting must have flunked out of film school. The optics were every bit as dark and ominous as was the content of the speech. If the President thought he was going to unite the country, well, chalk that up as a failure, too. He immedi...
Sep 02, 2022•32 min•Season 4Ep. 175
Today I focus mostly on the concept of cognitive dissonance as it relates to our current political climate. Later tonight, President Joe Biden is going to address the nation in what will undoubtedly be his darkest and most divisive speech to-date. He did not walk back calling half of the electorate semi-fascists. The White House has been doubling-down on that insult and tonight is expected to be the next logical escalation for his attack on the GOP. We look at how Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pie...

Today’s show opens with a lesson on classified documents. The media, members of the DOJ/FBI and the Left are all painting a terrible picture of how they found “classified” documents at Mar-a-Lago. That is not the proper way to reflect what has occurred. In fact, it is intentionally misleading. When a document is created, it does get a classification status. That is its designation at that moment in time. It will get a cover page and then all subsequent pages will be equally marked when printed. ...

Today I open with a news the biased and corrupt FBI agent, Timothy Thibault, has resigned from the Bureau. He left under intense scrutiny over allegations he helped to shield Hunter Biden from criminal investigations into his laptop and business dealings. Thibault was escorted out of the field office by at least two “headquarters-looking types,” sources told the NY Post. The current regime seems to look at individual failures and embarrassments as resume enhancements. How else can they explain h...

On today’s show I open with letting you know I intentionally said nothing Thursday or Friday regarding the anniversary of the 13 military personnel who died a year ago in Afghanistan during the worst retreat in our nation’s history. I wanted to see if President Joe Biden would acknowledge the day or their sacrifice for his disastrous plan. I wanted to see if the Legacy/mainstream media would honor the fallen. I was hoping to be surprised, but, sad to say, I was not. Not one word. Next I dive int...

Before I get into the main topic, I do open with a reminder of what I said exactly one week ago about the request to release the affidavit, which granted to general search and seizure warrant for the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. I said if it were to get released at all, it will be so redacted, it will be all but useless in shedding light on the raid. Well, that has proven true today. What I then spend the vast majority of the show discussing is the admission by Facebook that they went along with the ...

Today’s show opens with a bit of a story. It could be considered a fable, but since we aren’t using animals, it technically does not qualify. But, at it’s core, a fable is meant to impart a moral lesson to the reader. In this case I use the example of walking down the street and we see a destitute person in need of some help. I decide to reach into my wallet and give the person $20. This is called charity. I have willfully decided to part with some of my own property (money) by giving it to anot...

On today’s show we have to look at the next Leftist boondoggle in wealth redistribution and that is President Joe Biden’s immoral plan to forgive college debt for qualifying people. First, let’s remember, the President does not have this authority, it can only come from Congress. But, second, in the midst of a recession and inflation levels not seen in 40 years, the White House wants to pump close to another trillion dollars into the market, worsening inflation and driving up the cost of college...
Aug 24, 2022•32 min•Season 4Ep. 168
Today we open with some breaking news from late yesterday. It is now clear the White House lied when they said they had no knowledge of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. In a memo from April of this year, it is evident President Biden had been briefed and told the parties involved he was not going to recognize any of President Trump’s claims for privilege. As far as I know, this has never happened in my lifetime. While Donald Trump had all Constitutional authority to declassify anything he wanted, the...

Welcome back to The Alan Sanders Show. Today, I try to catch up on several news items that are worth discussion beyond the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. Of course, that even is monumental in our nation’s history, so I do open with some comments made over the weekend by Governor Chris Sununu (R) of New Hampshire. Sununu told Fox News Sunday the FBI and AG Garland were “morons” in how they have handled the raid and the complete lack of transparency behind it. Long time listeners to this show already kno...
