About this listen

 In a moment when ICE agents are branded fascists, law enforcement is vilified, and political violence is routinely excused as "understandable," America is confronting a dangerous truth: the tactics once associated with foreign extremist movements are now being normalized at home. After a radical left-wing protester is killed in a lawful confrontation with federal agents, the Left demands ICE be dismantled. When an illegal alien rapes and murders an American woman, those same voices double down on open-border policies that enabled the crime. Democrats insist borders matter absolutely in Ukraine—but ridicule Donald Trump for arguing that our border is anything other than a line on a map or that Greenland matters strategically to U.S. national security. Prudence at home is mocked. Recklessness abroad is sanctified. But this escalation didn't happen overnight. Drew Thomas Allen, known nationally as "the Millennial Minister of Truth," host of The Drew Allen Show, and author of America's Last Stand: Will You Vote to Save or Destroy America in 2024? and his newest book For Christ and Country: The Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk, joins me to discuss how the justification of political violence on American streets became normalized and how we restore sanity to this volatile situation.

A short-term partial government shutdown is happening through the weekend due to the House being in recess, but there seems to be a deal in place to reopen things early next week, thanks to President Trump getting personally involved. However, an agreement between Trump and Sen. Chuck Schumer doesn't make the minibus package a "done deal" in the age of radical Democrats who no longer consider the "Old Guard" to be their leaders. Ron Edwards, host of The Ron Edwards American Experience, joins me to discuss the deal and the possible ramifications of the most likely outcomes. And who knows where that conversation will take us.
