Fake MAGA X Accounts Stir Up Republican Infighting
Wednesday, November 26, 2025 • Duration 41:50
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 25, 2025.
0:30 A Florida Democrat in Congress is in hot water after her company asked for $50,000 in COVID relief…and the federal government accidentally dropped $5 million into her account. Instead of reporting it, she allegedly kept it, bought a three-carat diamond ring, and even funneled some of the cash into her own campaign. Now she’s facing federal charges, and for once, accountability might actually be landing inside the Democratic Party. But will justice stick, or will politics bail her out—again?
10:00 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
Current US Senator Tommy Tuberville has announced he plans on running for Governor of Alabama next year since current Governor, Kay Ivey is term limited out of office.

13:00 Despite all the doom-and-gloom headlines about how “the economy is struggling” and “Americans can’t afford anything,” shoppers are about to blow past last year’s spending. The National Retail Federation says Americans are on track to drop over $1 trillion between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday—up from $970 billion last year. And no, that jump can’t be blamed on inflation alone. People are actually choosing to spend more.
15:30 Who hosts Thanksgiving in your family? American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson dive into the holiday chaos — last-minute plan changes, split gatherings, fried turkey, and even a legendary high-heel touchdown during family flag football. Plus, the sweet stories, the cooking disasters, and the grandmothers who made it all look effortless. It’s a warm, funny look at how families really decide where Thanksgiving happens… and why sometimes the only thing that truly matters is who’s making the stuffing.
23:00 Is the media stirring up chaos again? We call out the networks pushing shaky narratives, unpack why these reports don’t add up, and talk about how some outlets seem more interested in undermining the administration than informing the public.
26:00 Elon Musk just dropped a simple new Twitter feature — and it’s blowing the lid off armies of fake “MAGA” accounts that were never American at all. We’re talking trolls from Bangladesh, Eastern Europe, Africa, all posing as Trump supporters and stirring up chaos inside the movement. Now, with one click on “About This Account,” users are exposing them left and right. What did this reveal, how deep does the deception go, and what does it mean for the infighting we’ve seen online?

32:30 Trump derangement syndrome has officially gone professional. This week, even the architect working on the White House remodel is under fire. Not a politician, not an adviser — an architect. Members of the American Institute of Architects are suddenly questioning his ethics, his permits, his historical paperwork… all because he took a job for President Trump. Never mind that the White House has been renovated, rebuilt, and reimagined by countless architects under past administrations with zero drama. Now? They want this guy’s license. We break down the latest example of how no one around Trump is considered “safe” anymore — not even the guy holding the blueprints.
35:00 A new YouGov Thanksgiving poll is out, and it’s serving up some surprising numbers along with the turkey. Most Americans are gearing up to spend the holiday with family — and most aren’t expecting a political brawl at the dinner table. But the real twist? Democrats are more than twice as likely as Republicans to brace for a fight. We break down what the data says about gratitude, identity, and why some families head into Thanksgiving ready to give thanks… while others show up ready for round one.
40:00 Senator Ruben Gallego of Arizona woke up to find some of his private texts leaked all over the place. And in those messages, he absolutely torched his own party, complaining that Democrats “don’t let men be men or women be hot,” before dropping the now-infamous line: Dem women look like dem men, and dem men look like women. Democrats are saying, "Whoa."
41:30 And we finish off with President Trump's pardon of the turkeys for Thanksgiving.
Locking up Repeat Offenders Isn't Harsh—It's Common Sense
Tuesday, November 25, 2025 • Duration 41:50
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 25, 2025.
0:30 Anthropic—the company behind Claude, one of the most advanced AI systems on the planet—just dropped a bombshell: a Chinese state-sponsored group hijacked a modified version of their tech and used it to launch what may be the first actual large-scale cyber-espionage campaign run almost entirely by AI. We're breaking down how Anthropic eventually shut it down—but they had to tell our government, not the other way around. Meanwhile the CIA, NSA, FBI—agencies with budgets bigger than entire countries—were too busy chasing political vendettas to notice an AI-driven cyber breach unfolding under their noses.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has resigned from Congress.
A federal Judge dismissed the indictments against both former FBI Director James Comey and current New York Attorney General Letitia James.

13:00 We take a look at the situation unfolding in Italy. The Italian Interior Ministry revealed that foreign nationals make up only 9% of Italy’s population… but nearly HALF of all sexual-violence arrests. The problem? Refusal to assimilate.
16:30 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson dive into the rising trend of the so-called “gray divorce”—why longtime couples in their 50s, 60s, and even 70s are suddenly calling it quits after decades together. From Oprah’s town hall to real-life stories of retirement shock, infidelity, complacency, and even the unexpected role of the little blue pill, the Mamas break down why so many marriages are unraveling late in life.

Ukraine Peace Plan, Illegal Obama Donations, and Fake News Friday
Monday, November 24, 2025 • Duration 41:50
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 21, 2025.
0:30 We break down the remarkable shift in tone from New York City’s mayor-elect, Zoran Mamdani—the same man who once railed against ICE as a “rogue” and “fascist” agency, vowed to resist deportations, and gave that fiery, chest-thumping election-night speech aimed squarely at Donald Trump. But when Mamdani stepped into the Oval Office, all that bravado evaporated. Instead of the angry revolutionary from election night, he appeared quiet, almost timid.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
For the first time, members of the domestic terrorist organization ANTIFA have been convicted on terrorism charges.
Congressman Eric Swalwell announced he's running for Governor of California.

13:30 We dive into the latest Capitol Hill spectacle featuring Representative Jasmine Crockett—who, according to the hosts, came out swinging but ended up hitting her own team in the face. Crockett boldly attempted to expose what she claimed was a Republican “double standard” on ties to Jeffrey Epstein, rattling off names from Mitt Romney to George Bush. There’s just one tiny problem: Crockett’s list wasn’t tied to that Jeffrey Epstein. Her staff had pulled donations from a completely different man with the same name—a New York physician, not the infamous convicted sex offender.
16:00 American Mamas—Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson—tackle a listener question that hits close to home: Can someone actually develop a sense of humor, or is it one of those things you’re either born with or you’re not? They talk about growing up in a home where wit, timing, and thick skin were the daily curriculum. The Mamas break down the difference between natural comedic instinct and the kind of humor that feels forced or lands sideways. Good comedy, they say, comes from intelligence, self-awareness, and a lot of practice. People who never learned how to kid around often end up sounding mean instead of funny, because they never figured out where the line is—or how not to cross it. For the Mamas, humor is a muscle: start young, poke fun, take a joke, laugh at yourself, and raise kids who can do the same.
Somali Fraud in Minnesota - When The American Melting Pot Becomes a Fractured Patchwork
Friday, November 21, 2025 • Duration 41:51
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 20, 2025.
0:30 We are sounding the alarm because six Democratic members of Congress put out a video telling U.S. service members they can “refuse illegal orders.” That may sound fine on this surface, but this video isn’t about law at all. It’s about planting the idea that orders from President Trump himself are somehow optional. We break down what the Constitution says about following the president's orders and how this video is just another attempt to delegitimize President Trump.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
According to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the US Economy added 119,000 jobs in September.
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has put a halt to a new California law that would have required companies all across the country to post on their website all of their carbon emissions.

13:30 The discussion of the "refuse illegal orders" video continues, and we're calling out the Democrats' hypocrisy. The Democrats want to label January 6th an “insurrection,” but that label is far more fitting for the video that these six Democratic lawmakers put out. And isn't funny that these lawmakers never identify any supposed unlawful orders? This isn't harmless political theater.
16:00 The American Mamas tackle a difficult listener question: When a couple divorces, should they tell the kids if infidelity was involved? Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson explore different perspectives on honesty, timing, protecting children, and how to handle complicated situations when emotions are high. The conversation highlights how every family’s circumstances are different — and why compassion and careful communication matter.

Trump and McMahon Move Towards Closing Failed Dept. of Education
Thursday, November 20, 2025 • Duration 42:09
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 19, 2025.
0:30 We walk through one of Donald Trump’s most brilliant strategic maneuvers—one the media will never credit him for and Democrats will swear was pure coincidence. Trump didn’t demand the release of the Epstein files, didn’t beat the drum, didn’t turn it into a rally chant. He hesitated just enough to send Democrats into full Trump-Derangement overdrive, convincing themselves they were “standing up” to him. And in that frenzy, Democrats in the House voted unanimously to release documents that could expose their own donors, their own Hollywood friends, and, as newly revealed, even their own party leader, Hakeem Jeffries.
9:30 Plus we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
Billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer has announced he's running for Governor of California next year.
The Department of Homeland Security has issued a Civil Emergency for Broadview, Illinois where pro-illegal alien activists have been rioting outside of an ICE facility.

13:00 Even in Congress there are still supposed to be some basic standards of conduct, especially when you’re representing the United States abroad. Speaker Mike Johnson is trying to restore that sense of honor. After an alcohol-related incident during an official trip to Mexico Rep. Dan Crenshaw from Texas, has been banned from international travel for three months.
16:00 The American Mamas tackle a difficult listener question: When a couple divorces, should they tell the kids if infidelity was involved? Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson explore different perspectives on honesty, timing, protecting children, and how to handle complicated situations when emotions are high. The conversation highlights how every family’s circumstances are different — and why compassion and careful communication matter.
The Affordability Crisis and Party Infighting
Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 41:52
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for November 18, 2025.
0:30 We break down a major federal court decision with sweeping implications for the Constitution and the balance of power between states and Washington. A federal judge has dismissed the Department of Justice’s challenge to New York’s law blocking federal immigration agents from making arrests inside state courthouses—raising an urgent question: Can a state legally obstruct the enforcement of federal law?
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
Mohammed Bin Salman arrived in Washington D.C. today for a state visit at the White House.The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia came to the US to finalize several trade deals with the Trump administration.
A judge in Tennessee has ruled the Governor of the state does not have the legal right or power to deploy the National Guard to fight crime in the state.

13:00 We take a look at a growing internal revolt inside the Democratic Party—one that could spell the end of Chuck Schumer’s leadership. Schumer is being pushed out by a party base that has moved far to the left of him. With Senator Cory Booker publicly framing Schumer’s generation of Democrats as the past, we break down what that political language really signals: an impending transfer of power.
16:00 We ask the American Mamas what happened to Marjorie Taylor Greene. Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson dive into the sudden and dramatic shift in Marjorie Taylor Greene’s public persona—why she’s showing up on left-wing media, apologizing on CNN, clashing with fellow MAGA Republicans, and now openly feuding with President Trump himself. From her failed push to oust Speaker Mike Johnson to her sharp turn toward “unity” messaging, the mamas sort through the contradictions and speculate about the ambition, pressure, and possible political maneuvering behind it all. They also explore why so many once-rising conservative stars—from Dan Crenshaw to MTG—seem to lose their footing in Washington, and whether a shaky ideological foundation makes politicians vulnerable to shifting with the political winds.
Ukranian Mother Alla Yatsentsuk and her Son Speak About Russian Forces Abducting Children in the Ukraine
Tuesday, November 18, 2025 • Duration 41:51
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 17, 2025.
0:30 We dive into President Trump’s newly floated idea of a $2,000 “tariff dividend” for Americans earning under $100,000—and the heated debate it’s sparked. We break down the real numbers behind U.S. tariff revenues, the crushing weight of a $38 trillion national debt, and why handing out checks may feel good politically but won’t fix decades of fiscal irresponsibility. We explore who this proposal is aimed at, the working-class voters both parties are fighting to win back, and whether this is genuine relief or just another election-year strategy.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
The Federal Aviation Administration lifted all restrictions on flights, airlines and airports over the weekend that were put in place during the Government Lockdown.
Interim Director of FEMA David Richardson resigned Monday morning.

13:30 We break down President Trump’s call for a full, no-holds-barred congressional vote to release every remaining Epstein file—and why the timing matters. We discuss Democrats’ attempts to weaponize selectively released emails, the media’s eagerness to push a narrative, and why even those emails ultimately undercut the left’s accusations rather than support them. The hosts explore Trump’s reasoning for demanding total transparency, including his belief that dragging out the Epstein saga has become yet another political distraction—“Russia hoax 3.0”—aimed at diverting voters from Democratic failures on the border, inflation, and public safety.
16:30 American Mamas respond to a listener’s question: “Why are you enforcing your beauty standards on Black women and forcing them to straighten their hair?” The discussion centers on recent comments from former First Lady Michelle Obama, who suggested at a public event that Black women often straighten their hair to conform to white beauty standards. The Mamas question whether hair maintenance is a racial issue or something women deal with. And they point out that Michelle Obama has the right and platform to wear her hair however she wants, noting that she's been highly praised by media and public audiences.
Young People Losing Faith Amid Economic Pressures and Turning Toward Liberal Idealogy for Answers
Monday, November 17, 2025 • Duration 41:24
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 14, 2025.
0:30 We dig into a surprising new analysis from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco that challenges decades of economic dogma. For nearly a century, experts have insisted that tariffs raise prices and cripple economies—but a 150-year review of data from the U.S., UK, and France shows the opposite. We break down how tariffs can lower prices, strengthen domestic manufacturing, reduce foreign dependency, and expose the myths that fueled the rise of global competitors like China. And we look at how new trade deals and shifting economic power are reshaping American industry in real time.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
The Prosecution against President Trump from Georgia will move forward with Peter Skandalakis as the prosecutor.
California Congressman Eric Swalwell, who previously was accused of having an affair with a Chinese spy, is now accused of falsifying loans.

13:30 We break down the debate over H-1B visas, fraud in the system, and the growing rift inside the Republican Party over immigration and specialized labor. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s proposal to cap visas and crack down on abuse faces pushback after President Trump argues that certain specialized skills simply don’t exist in sufficient numbers here at home. We explore why most H-1B visas aren’t going to top-tier engineers, how major tech and outsourcing firms have become the biggest beneficiaries, and why national security concerns are now shaping the conversation about who should—or shouldn’t—be filling America’s most sensitive industrial and defense roles.
16:00 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson react to the backlash surrounding Sydney Sweeney’s latest film, Christie—a biopic about 1990s boxer Christy Martin—and why the movie world has turned on one of its brightest young stars. Despite keeping her politics private, Sweeney has been labeled “problematic” after reports surfaced that she’s a registered Republican. Now, after the film’s disappointing box office debut, some in the industry are blaming for its performance.We explore the double standard in Hollywood—how major flops from firmly left-leaning stars barely make a ripple, while Sweeney’s misstep draws vitriol from actors like Ruby Rose. We also highlight Christy Martin’s heartfelt defense of Sweeney, pushing back against claims that she “ruined” the film.
Entitlement and a Lack of Civic Literacy - Why People Vote for Socialism
Friday, November 14, 2025 • Duration 41:51
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 13, 2025.
0:30 We break down the Department of Justice’s stunning lawsuit against the state of California over Proposition 50, a ballot initiative that rewrote the state’s congressional maps with blatant, unapologetic racial gerrymandering. With the balance of power in Congress potentially shifting by as many as nine seats, this isn’t just about California. It’s about the future of the Voting Rights Act, the limits of racial considerations in mapmaking, and whether the Constitution still draws the lines… or the politicians do.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
President Trump signed a bill ending the federal Government shutdown.
Democrat Katie Wilson defeated incumbent Democrat Bruce Harrell to become the next mayor of Seattle.

13:00 California is back in the headlines — and not for anything resembling sanity. We break down the explosive revelation that the California DMV handed out more than 17,000 commercial trucking licenses to foreign nationals, including illegal aliens with no work permits, no legal status, and in many cases, no ability to read or speak English. What should be a safety-first agency has been weaponized into a sanctuary institution, prioritizing politics over public safety. We dive into how this reckless licensing spree undermines trained American truckers, destabilizes one of the most regulated industries in the nation, and endangers everyone on the road.
16:00 We ask American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — what they think about the viral confrontation between singer Tish Hyman and California congressional candidate Scott Weiner. After a fully intact biological male entered the women’s locker room at her San Francisco gym, Hyman — a Black lesbian and longtime Democrat voter — confronted Wiener directly, demanding to know whether he would actually protect women’s safety. The Mamas break down the moment Hyman stood her ground against a hostile crowd, challenged the narrative that “trans women are women,” and exposed the disturbing criminal history of the man at the center of the controversy. What emerges is a rare, powerful pushback from inside the Democratic base itself — and a sign that even in San Francisco, the backlash to radical gender policies may be beginning.
Doubling Down on Stupid: Blue Cities Destroy Their Own Tax Base with Leftist Policies
Thursday, November 13, 2025 • Duration 41:51
You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 12, 2025.
0:30 How can one city take nearly half a month to count votes? Seattle’s still counting ballots two weeks after Election Day — and somehow, the far-left candidate keeps gaining ground. From New York’s new socialist mayor to Seattle’s projected “democratic socialist” winner, delayed counts and mail-in ballots seem to benefit the far-left. But it’s about more than elections. We dig into why progressive cities like Seattle, already struggling with crime, homelessness, and failing businesses, keep doubling down on policies that made those problems worse.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced this week he is running for a fourth term as Governor of the Lone Star State.
Sean Duffy, the Secretary of Transportation says California has issued 17,000 commercial drivers licenses to illegal aliens in violation of federal law.

13:30 Crime is down in Chicago — shootings, carjackings, and violent crime have all dropped under President Trump’s Operation Midway. You’d think everyone would be celebrating, but the left isn’t cheering — they’re furious. We unpack why a safer city has made progressives so angry and what that reveals about their real priorities.
16:00 If Donald Trump cured cancer, would Democrats even take the cure? That’s the question our American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — tackle this week. From a mother’s fight to save her daughter from a rare autoimmune disease to the political outrage that erupts any time a Trump-era name is mentioned, the Mamas dig into what’s behind the left’s reflexive hostility. Why has disagreement turned into derangement? Why does everything connected to Trump — even something meant to help people — become a trigger?
23:00 We reflect on the fading penny — not just as currency, but as a piece of American culture. From “a penny for your thoughts” to “penny wise and pound foolish,” they explore what happens when familiar sayings — and the values behind them — lose their meaning to a new generation.
23:00 We unpack the situation in Chicago Public Schools where fewer than one-third of students can read at grade level, but district officials somehow found $14 million to blow on luxury trips, hotel suites, and feel-good “leadership retreats.”
26:00 We Dig Deep into a jaw-dropping City Journal piece that pulls back the curtain on repeat offenders and the revolving door justice system enabling them. We walk through the wild case of Sergio Highland — a convicted killer turned “prison reform activist” — who posed with a Soros-backed DA one day and was charged with murder again the next. We dig into why crime in America is driven by a small group of chronic offenders — and why locking up the worst of the worst isn’t harsh, it’s common sense.
32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.
32:30 We break down a brand-new YouGov poll that shows Democrats got absolutely steamrolled in the latest government shutdown showdown. Only 8% of Americans think Democrats “won” the fight, a number so low it’s practically a political face-plant. Even Democrats themselves admit the GOP came out ahead.
35:30 Plus, the University of Notre Dame makes it's Catholic mission clear, and that's a Bright Spot. We dive into last week’s dust-up at the University of Notre Dame, after an official article outlined the school’s “refreshed values” — community, collaboration, excellence, innovation — but made no explicit mention of the university’s historic Catholic identity. The university clarified and re-emphasized its core purpose, updating the mission language to put its Catholic identity at the top: “Be the leading Catholic research university… be a force for good.”
40:30 We’re talking about the sanctity of life from beginning to natural end. And then we pivot to a jaw-dropping move out of Scotland, where lawmakers are opening the door to assisted suicide with virtually no safeguards. Amendments to protect young people, the disabled, those vulnerable to coercion, or even individuals battling temporary depression? All rejected. Just tossed aside, and we're saying, "Whoa."
41:30 And we finish off today's show with some words of wisdom about purpose.

22:30 We dive into the shocking story out of Chicago—a woman set on fire on a train by a man with 49 prior arrests. And while the city is reeling, Mayor Brandon Johnson insists it’s just an “isolated incident.” We break down why this is anything but isolated, how repeat offenders are cycling through the system again and again, and what happens when politicians downplay the very real danger everyday Americans face on buses, trains, and city streets. This is a conversation about public safety, accountability, and a justice system that’s failing the people it’s supposed to protect.
26:00 We Dig Deep into President Trump’s newly unveiled 28-point peace plan for Ukraine—a proposal that’s already sending shockwaves through Kyiv, Moscow, and across Europe. Zelensky is warning Ukrainians that they now face a “very difficult choice,” while Putin is calling the plan a “starting point.” We get into what the proposal actually calls for: territorial compromises, security guarantees, restrictions on NATO expansion, frozen Russian assets being used to rebuild Ukraine, and even a fast-tracked Ukrainian election. We dig into the tough reality on the ground, why the West’s patience is wearing thin, and whether this plan is realism, capitulation, or the only path to ending a grinding war that Ukraine is slowly losing.

32:30 We dive into a rare moment that has the accountability crowd perking up: the case of Pras Michel—the Grammy-winning member of the Fugees—who’s now staring down 14 years in federal prison for funneling foreign money into Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign. Yep, the same crowd that lectures America about “protecting democracy” was raking in tens of millions from overseas, and the media once called that campaign the “gold standard of ethics.” We break down what Pras did, why this scandal is bigger than the headlines admit, and how it exposes years of Democrat projection on election interference. If you’ve ever wondered whether anyone in Washington ever faces consequences, this is one story you’ll want to hear.
35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? This week’s lineup has everything: Democrats refusing to denounce socialism, a member of Congress texting a convicted pedophile during a hearing, a child molester running for mayor, and even a federal judge blocking efforts to clean Washington, D.C. buildings. We’ve also got fake impeachments, fake hate crimes, and—believe it or not—raccoons that scientists say are actually getting cuter. Strap in, because we’re sorting the real news from the really fake news, and the results are… well, let’s just say the truth is stranger than fiction. Can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio.
40:00 Let’s talk about the attempted assassination of President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, because the official line from the FBI is that Thomas Crooks was a lone gunman. Case closed, move along. But a lot of people aren’t buying that. While Washington is telling everyone, “Nothing to see here,” the public is looking at this thing thinking… "Whoa."
23:00 We react to Senator Bernie Moreno's claim that "the American dream is dead." While the last four years under Biden were undeniably brutal for working families, America’s promise isn’t gone—just bruised by bad policy.
25:30 We Dig Deep into a jaw-dropping investigation out of Minnesota that traces massive state-funded fraud back to the wave of Somali refugees resettled during the Obama administration. We walk listeners through explosive reporting from City Journal showing how tens of millions—eventually hundreds of millions—of taxpayer dollars from housing and autism-related programs were siphoned off through fake clients, fake services, and kickback schemes run predominantly by individuals tied to the Somali refugee community in Minneapolis. The numbers are staggering: programs that were supposed to cost a couple million ballooning to over $100 million… autism funding exploding from $3 million to $399 million… and remittances being funneled overseas at such scale that U.S. Somali residents send more money abroad than Somalia’s entire national budget. And the part that stops everyone in their tracks? DOJ tracing significant chunks of that money straight into the accounts of terrorist group Al-Shabaab—leading to the chilling conclusion that Minnesota taxpayers have become the largest funders of Al-Shabaab.

33:00 We break down how, throughout history, communist regimes have always feared religion—not because prayer is dangerous, but because faith gives people something the state can’t tolerate: hope, identity, and loyalty that doesn’t flow through government power. It's no coincidence that Zoran Mamdani said that no issue is too small for the government to meddle in. The lefts wants the government to become like God.
35:30 Plus, Thanksgiving dinner is actually getting cheaper this year, and that's a Bright Spot. We break down the newest numbers from the American Farm Bureau and talk about what the drop in costs says about affordability, the economy, and why it’s a bright spot worth celebrating.
40:00 We dive into Megan Rapinoe’s latest comments on transgender athletes in women’s sports—and, yes, her unexpected comparison involving Landon Donovan’s hairline. According to Rapinoe, men in women's supports is comparable to a coach wearing a hearpiece. Her argument has us saying, "Whoa."

22:30 We dive into the surprising public reunion between Elon Musk and former President Trump, reacting to their renewed friendliness and the buzz surrounding it.
25:00 We Dig Deep into President Trump’s push to dismantle the Department of Education—and how Education Secretary Linda McMahon is quietly making it happen piece by piece. Instead of just flipping off the lights and walking away, McMahon is moving programs into agencies where they actually make sense. We're walking you through why the Department of Education never lived up to its mission, how test scores have slid since its creation in 1979, and why so many states and parents want control returned to the local level.

32:30 We dive into the growing national uproar over the NFL’s choice of Bad Bunny as the next Super Bowl halftime performer—months before the game even kicks off. We break down comments from Gracie Hunt, daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, and we debate whether Bad Bunny is even on the same level as past performers.
35:30 Plus, Warren Buffet's annual Berkshire Hathaway letter is a real Bright Spot. At 95, Buffett shares lessons that go beyond money. He reminds us to forgive ourselves for past mistakes, choose the best role models, and to live a life that you can be proud of. Work harder on yourself than on your job, because greatness isn’t about money, fame, or power—it’s about helping others. And the kicker? Kindness is costless—but priceless. Greatness comes from the way you treat people, not how much you earn or the headlines you make. Buffett’s advice is simple, timeless, and actionable.
40:00 We break down Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s recent comments about President Trump and his supporters, calling them “a cult” and questioning why anyone would back him. She seems to completely misunderstand what they stand for, and that's okay. Confidence and conviction matter, and you can’t let critics or mockery shake you from standing firm in your beliefs. But if anybody votes for Jasmine Crockett, we're saying, "whoa."
41:30 And we finish off with one of the most famous speeches in American history, the Gettysburg Address.

23:00 We react to Northwestern University’s newest “well-being initiative”: a free vending machine stocked with everything from Narcan and fentanyl test strips to condoms and Plan B. By placing life-saving tools, basic necessities, and abortion-inducing medication side-by-side—accessible at the push of a button—the university is sending a troubling moral message: that all choices carry the same weight and all consequences can be conveniently erased.
26:30 We tackle an unexpected moment of honesty from longtime media insider Fareed Zakaria. Despite his résumé across some of the nation’s most left-leaning outlets, Zakaria used his CNN platform to spotlight a politically inconvenient truth: America’s affordability crisis is overwhelmingly concentrated in places governed by Democrats. We Dig Deep into into why policies in deep-blue states like New York and California consistently deliver higher costs and poorer outcomes, even as voters continue re-electing the same leaders.

32:30 We talk about the misnamed Affordable Care Act that has made healthcare less affordable by adding layers of bureaucracy. Costs could be lowered through greater price transparency from hospitals and clinics, and by eliminating “concierge” health insurance that covers routine, guaranteed services like checkups. Instead, insurance should function like car or home insurance—covering unexpected, high-cost events, not routine maintenance.
35:30 Plus, Nicki Minaj publicly supported President Trump’s comments about global Christian persecution, and that's a Bright Spot. Though known for explicit music and public feuds, Minaj identifies as a Christian, and Christianity is about grace, not perfection. After Minaj reposted Trump’s message, UN Ambassador Mike Walz invited her to speak at the United Nations, where she thanked Trump for drawing attention to the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
40:00 After years of positioning herself as one of Trump's strongest allies, Marjorie Taylor Greene is calling Trump a "traitor." She's leaning into fringe conspiracy theories like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson with their theories about Charlie Kirk. At some point, we just have to say, "Whoa."
41:30 And we finish off with a day in 1883 that changed the way we keep time.

23:00 Under Trump, the U.S. didn’t enter any new wars—unlike past administrations that oversaw conflicts in Iraq, Libya, and beyond. Trump’s foreign-policy wins, from the historic Abraham Accords to renewed regional cooperation in the Middle East, even citing Kazakhstan’s recent involvement as a sign of growing diplomatic momentum.
24:00 We sit down with three special guests from Ukraine—Alla Yatsentsuk, her son Daniello, and advocate Katya Pavlich—to share a firsthand account of Russia’s forced deportation of Ukrainian children. Alla recounts the terrifying moment Russian forces occupied her city and ordered children, including her 12-year-old son, to attend a so-called “rest camp” in Crimea. When the children weren’t returned, Alla learned the truth: the Russians had no intention of sending them home. With the help of the organizationSave Ukraine, Alla embarked on a months-long, near-impossible journey to retrieve her child—navigating destroyed infrastructure, occupied territory, and deliberate obstruction from Russian forces. Daniello was one of the fortunate ones. Thousands of Ukrainian children are still missing, with fewer than 2,000 returned out of nearly 20,000 known abductions. Katya, representing Razom for Ukraine, explains how her organization is working to support hospitals, strengthen civil society, combat Russian disinformation, and advocate for abducted children on the world stage. She emphasizes a shared American and Ukrainian value: children are never bargaining chips.

32:30 We break down fresh speculation surrounding Senator Ted Cruz and the possibility of a 2028 presidential run. Known for being anything but subtle, Cruz is doing little to quiet the rumors—allowing buzz about his intentions to build. We discuss Cruz’s political instincts, noting he has long kept one eye on his future ambitions. But whether he should run is another question. With JD Vance widely seen as the strongest Republican contender for 2028, we weigh whether Cruz would strengthen or divide the party.
36:00 Plus, Republican states stand by Biblical, pro-life values after the Dobbs decision, and that's a Bright Spot. We break down a new report from Americans United for Life ranking the most—and least—pro-life states in the country. With the Dobbs decision returning the issue to the states, the AUL assessment goes beyond abortion to examine each state's protections for life from conception to natural death, including bioethics, end-of-life care, conscience protections, and the legal status of the unborn. Their findings reveal a stark divide: the top 10 pro-life states—led by Arkansas, Louisiana, and Indiana—are overwhelmingly Republican, while the 10 least protective states, from Oregon to New Mexico, are all governed by Democrats. Stephen and Lewis argue this split highlights the deepest cultural divide in America today.
40:00 We unpack the escalating feud between Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and President Trump—a clash that finally erupted publicly over the weekend. Greene’s new slogan, “America First, America Only,” and her attacks on Trump over Israel policy and the Epstein files sparked a forceful response from the former president, who labeled her a “lightweight,” a “traitor,” and even a RINO. Right now Republuicans could be winning everything, but we're attacking one another instead. We've gotta say, "Whoa."
41:30 And we finish off with Michelle and Vaughn Pohl, a couple who decided who nearly doubled the size of their family when they decided to adopt four children in need. When the family's car broke down, and Secret Santa stepped in to help the family showing that the Christmas Spirit is alive and well.

22:00 We break down the economic pressures shaping young voters—and how those frustrations helped propel Zoran Mamdani to victory in New York City. We examine the growing resentment around rent, wages, and soaring personal debt, including the staggering $1.2 trillion in U.S. credit card balances.
24:30 We Dig Deep into a new Gallup report showing one of the sharpest drops in religiosity anywhere in the world—and what that means for America’s future.We break down the 17-point decline in Americans who say faith is an important part of daily life, and why the Founders believed a moral and religious people were essential to preserving freedom. We look at how this vacuum of belief is being filled—not by God, but by government. From New York City’s Zoran Mamdani declaring that no problem is too big for government to solve, to the rise of political and ideological substitutes for religion, misplaced faith in bureaucracy threatens liberty itself.

32:00 We break down a sprawling, mob-linked sports betting ring that stretched across college campuses and pulled in student-athletes. We discuss how the explosion of legalized sports gambling, combined with the massive money flowing through today’s NIL era, has created fertile ground for corruption and chaos. From point-shaving schemes to young athletes being pressured by organized crime, we look at how institutions once built on discipline and merit have drifted into moral relativism and cash-driven incentives. And as New Jersey authorities uncover a multi-million-dollar criminal pipeline tied to college programs, the warning signs are getting harder to ignore.
35:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From TSA bonuses and collapsing bridges, to chart-topping AI-generated music, Tiktok scandals, and even Tucker Carlson's interview with Bigfoot, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio.
39:00 We take a look at the Democratic National Committee’s latest internal drama: staffers being ordered back to the office after years of remote work. Long-distance governing may have contributed to the party’s recent missteps, but they aren't too happy about returning to the office and we're saying, "Whoa."
41: And we finish off with a young man with integrity. After turning in some lost cash, he was rewarded with a job.

22:30 We break down the stunning admission from Democratic Senators John Hickenlooper and Jack Reed, who now claim the longest government shutdown in American history was — unbelievably — “worth it.” While millions of Americans went without paychecks, vital services stalled, and military families were left in limbo, these senators are patting themselves on the back as if the suffering was an acceptable price for partisan leverage. We dig into what the shutdown was really about: not national security, not fiscal responsibility, but a political standoff over illegal-alien healthcare and a $1.5 trillion progressive wish list.
27:00 We Dig Deep into a rare moment of clarity from the U.S. Supreme Court — courtesy of Justice Neil Gorsuch. While promoting his upcoming children’s book, Heroes of 1776, Gorsuch sat down with Fox & Friends’ Lawrence Jones to discuss an urgent issue: America’s growing civic illiteracy. When asked about the consequences of removing foundational stories from our classrooms, Gorsuch didn’t hesitate. The greatest threat to America, he warned, is America itself — a population that no longer knows its own history.
We unpack his sobering reminder that most Americans can’t pass the same citizenship test required of legal immigrants, and how that civic ignorance is fueling everything from political polarization to the rise of socialism in major cities. If we don’t teach people why this nation was founded — the principles of natural rights, limited government, and personal liberty — then someone else will fill that void, and not with the truth.

33:00 We dive into the newest revelations from the Epstein document dump—and what the media isn’t telling you. While headlines focus on misdirection and selectively edited claims, the real story is hiding in plain sight: high-profile journalists and a former New York Times reporter were privately begging Jeffrey Epstein for dirt on Donald Trump… and came up empty. We break down who was involved, what the emails actually show, and why the media’s narrative conveniently ignores the exculpatory details.
35:00 Plus, Barry Brownstein’s Daily Economy article, “The Economics of Gratitude" is a real Bright Spot. We unpack a powerful idea from the article, that gratitude— not entitlement— is the foundation of prosperity. Drawing on insights from 19th-century economist Frédéric Bastiat, we reflect on how modern life is built on the contributions of millions of people we’ll never meet—and how easy it is to lose sight of that. From the smartphones in our pockets to the computers on our desks, we rely every day on technology that no single person could ever build alone. Yet in a culture of comfort and convenience, gratitude evaporates quickly. We dig into how cultivating gratitude can reshape your worldview, your politics, and your daily life, and why remembering what you already have may be the most radical—and liberating—act you can take.
39:30 Harvard's grading scale has basically become a joke. They call it “grade inflation,” but let’s be honest—it’s a participation-trophy festival. And now there’s a rumor that Harvard might finally do something about it. Perhaps Harvard has realized that standards really do matter and they're saying, "Whoa."
41:30 And we finish off with some Words of Wisdom about gratitude.
25:30 Follow the money — and the movers. We're Digging Deep into a new report from Unleash Prosperity, led by economist Stephen Moore, that shows just how much wealth is fleeing blue states — and where it’s landing. We break down the staggering numbers: New York, California, Illinois, and New Jersey have lost over $1.3 trillion in income as residents pack up for freer, lower-tax states like Florida and Texas.

32:30 Can affordable healthcare actually exist in America? We dig into the failures of Obamacare — the so-called “Affordable Care Act” that doubled costs for families and made seeing a doctor harder than ever. But there may be a better way.
We're joined by Francis Curry, CFO of Altrua HealthShare, to discuss how a shared-values approach to healthcare is helping families across the country find coverage at a fraction of the cost — without government subsidies or bureaucratic red tape.
40:00 We react to Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s latest non-answer — when asked if Chuck Schumer should step down, she replied that “a leader is a reflection of the party.” But is that really true? Or is it the other way around?
The hosts break down how politicians spin, stall, and sidestep accountability — and why voters deserve straight answers instead of scripted talking points. Sometimes, all you can say is… whoa.
