If you get your news from the numerous alphabet soup news outlets and any number of other mainstream, pro-Democratic Party sources, you are likely unaware of the recent bombshell stories that depict Joe Biden, not only as a liar, but a corrupt, influence-peddler-for-hire, mob boss. In addition to exposing Biden's corruption and his general lack of fitness for office, these stories provide us with more evidence of the media's double-standard, the general lack of principles in the Democratic Party...

Every time there is a police-involved death of a person of color, the Democrats use it as an opportunity to sow racial divide in America. They point to it and claim the nation is systemically racist. Now that the grand jury has spoken about the death of Breonna Taylor, I thought it was time to talk about this tragedy outside the fog of Leftists propaganda and disinformation. I also examine the missed opportunity to make some real reforms when it comes to no-knock warrants and the War on Drugs. S...

There is a consistent theme throughout this episode; most of these stories were covered up, breezed over or totally ignored by most mainstream media outlets. If you get your news from one of the alphabet soup news outlets, you likely have not heard about some of these stories or you were fed a skewed version of the truth. Consider: Nancy Pelosi's trip to the hair salon, the declassification of Russia collusion documents, the first presidential debate, Trump's Nobel Peace Prize nominations, RBG, ...

Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, Ruth Bader Ginsburg died recently. Let the fawning begin! While her work ethic and career as an attorney demonstrates many laudable traits and accomplishments, her record on the highest court in the land leaves anyone with the least bit of respect for the Constitution unimpressed and, quite frankly, angry. The bottom line is she did not do her job and should have impeached years ago, perhaps decades ago. Show Notes Episode #16 - The Truth About the Supreme...

Have you seen the latest virtue-signaling craze? The yard sign that reads: “In this house, we believe: Black Lives Matter; No Human is Illegal; Love is Love; Women’s Rights Are Human Rights; Science is Real; Water is Life; Injustice Anywhere Is a Threat to Justice Everywhere." In this episode we unpack this type of semantically overloaded political sloganeering and ask quite a few relevant questions. Show Notes Episode #2 – The Truth About Abortion – What about the Baby?

Joe Biden recently selected California Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate. You may be wondering why I would spend any time talking about someone who, if history is any guide, will be a footnote in the history books? Think Geraldine Ferraro, Dan Quayle, Lloyd Bentsen, Jack Kemp, Joe Lieberman, John Edwards, Paul Ryan and Tim Kayne. The reason, of course, is because Joe Biden is not healthy. The likelihood of him serving out his term (if elected) is looking less likely by the day. The other...

If you asked 100 people if they think America is healthy culturally, financially, spiritually, educationally, racially, or constitutionally, I am willing to bet a large majority would respond in the negative. America is broken and the only thing that can save it (from itself) is state secession. In this episode I build the case for secession: The reasons it is necessary Why secession is good Refute most of the common objections to secession Address how it could be accomplished in the 21st centur...

Specifically we examine how he destroyed states' rights, his dictatorial actions during the war, his real agenda and we make a strong case that he should have been charged as a war criminal had he lived.

As I record this episode in late March 2020, the world is living through the Coronavirus crisis. Recently my wife and I were discussing the toilet paper shortage.

She argued that price gouging during a crisis is wrong and immoral. I tried to explain why it is actually a good thing. Full disclosure: She was not convinced.

Joe Biden has spent almost 50 years in Washington, D.C. and, prior to that, a handful of years practicing law. He is the personification of a career politician.

In this episode we will examine his voting record, his ideas, his propensity to be a bully, a compulsive liar and a gaffe machine. We also review the history of corruption among the Biden family and discuss the obvious lapse in his mental hea...
