  • Insurrection Act & Immigration Enforcement | Benjamin Osborne, Center for Renewing America
    Feb 6 2026

    In this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Benjamin Osborne, Legal Fellow at the Center for Renewing America, to examine the constitutional limits of state power and the federal government’s authority to enforce immigration law.

    Osborne explains how the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution works in practice and why states cannot legally nullify or obstruct federal law. Using recent events in Minnesota as a case study, he outlines the difference between lawful state resistance and unconstitutional defiance, and clarifies the proper mechanisms states can use to challenge federal policy.

    The conversation also explores the Insurrection Act, including when it can be invoked, how it has been used historically, and what legal options are available to a president when state officials refuse to enforce federal law. Osborne walks through the president’s authority to federalize the National Guard and the constitutional duty to ensure that laws are faithfully executed.

    In addition, Osborne discusses the legal challenge to automatic birthright citizenship, his role in filing an amicus brief supporting President Trump’s position, and the upcoming Supreme Court case. He explains the historical and legal arguments surrounding allegiance, sovereignty, and why the current system has created incentives for illegal immigration.

    This episode provides a clear, constitutional framework for understanding immigration enforcement, federal supremacy, and the consequences of state resistance to the rule of law.

  • The Supreme Court Battles Defining Religious Freedom | Mathew D. Staver, Chairman, Liberty Counsel
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin is joined by Mathew D. Staver, Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel, to examine the most consequential Supreme Court cases impacting religious freedom in America today.

    Staver outlines how government overreach—at the state and local levels—is increasingly colliding with First Amendment protections. From COVID-era mandates that shuttered churches to states openly defying federal law, these cases reveal a growing constitutional crisis with nationwide implications.

    Key topics discussed include:

    • Ongoing Supreme Court cases involving religious exemptions, federal law, and state mandates
    • How COVID lockdowns exposed unconstitutional restrictions on churches and faith-based institutions
    • A shocking custody case where a court barred a mother from taking her child to church or even reading the Bible
    • Government-compelled speech and the legal battle over forced pronoun usage in public employment
    • The fight to protect Christian employers and universities from ideological coercion
    • Parental rights, counseling bans, and the long-term consequences of government-mandated “affirming care”
    • Why these legal battles will shape the future of religious liberty, free speech, and constitutional government

    Staver also explains why Liberty Counsel is at the forefront of these fights and what Americans should be watching as these cases move through the courts.

    This conversation is essential listening for anyone concerned about the erosion of constitutional freedoms and the role the Supreme Court will play in defining religious liberty for generations to come.

  • IRS Whistleblowers Expose the Biden Cover-Up | Gary Shapley & Joseph Ziegler, IRS Whistleblowers
    Jan 21 2026

    In this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin is joined by IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, two career IRS Criminal Investigation agents who came forward after witnessing political interference in the federal investigation into Hunter Biden.

    Shapley and Ziegler walk listeners through how the case originated, the evidence they uncovered, and the investigative steps that were blocked or delayed by the Department of Justice. They explain how search warrants were denied, interviews were tipped off, charging decisions were overridden, and how normal procedures were abandoned in ways they had never seen in any other case.

    The conversation also explores what led each of them to become whistleblowers, the retaliation and isolation they faced, and the personal cost of choosing to speak the truth. Both guests share hard-earned lessons for other government employees, the importance of following lawful whistleblower processes, and why equal justice under the law is essential to maintaining public trust.

    This episode offers a rare, firsthand account of government weaponization, institutional corruption, and the courage required to stand up when the system protects the powerful instead of enforcing the law equally.

    Jan 7 2026

    In this episode, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Clint Brown, President of American Path, for an in-depth discussion on political influence operations, narrative warfare, and the growing use of “color revolution” tactics inside the United States.

    Clint explains how strategies once used overseas to destabilize foreign governments are now being adapted for American politics—through media amplification, manufactured protests, elite signaling, and coordinated online narratives. He walks through how these operations shape public perception, exhaust voters, and influence elections without relying on traditional campaigning.

    Topics covered in this episode:

    • What “color revolutions” are and how the playbook works
    • How narrative control matters more than facts in modern politics
    • The role of media, influencers, and foreign actors in shaping public opinion
    • Why “boring” or “stable” candidates can be strategically dangerous
    • How protests and online outrage can be manufactured or amplified
    • The impact of fear, chaos, and exhaustion on voter behavior
    • What to watch for as the country approaches the 2026 midterm elections
    • Why grounding yourself in first principles matters more than reacting to headlines

    Clint also offers practical advice for staying engaged without becoming discouraged, recognizing influence operations online, and resisting fear-based political manipulation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of courage, civic engagement, and clarity as Americans work to preserve the constitutional republic.

    If you care about election integrity, political strategy, and understanding how power really operates in modern America, this episode provides essential context and insight.
