Send us a text Tired of leaders pretending the only fix is to “tax the rich” while the books keep bleeding red? We dig into why America doesn’t have a revenue problem—it has a management problem. From Mitt Romney’s New York Times push for more taxes to the grim math behind deficits, we break down what the numbers actually say, how incentives fuel entrepreneurship, and why voluntary contributions expose a gap between rhetoric and reality. If higher rates barely move the needle and drive capita...

Send us a text California’s policy circus just raised the tent—and we brought the receipts. We open with Eric Swalwell’s headline-friendly promise to “unmask” ICE and charge agents with crimes, then lay out why the Supremacy Clause makes that a nonstarter. Beyond the civics lesson, we get into the damage that reckless rhetoric does in the real world: it inflames tensions, confuses voters, and targets the wrong problem when the immigration system itself needs serious, lawful reform. From ther...

Send us a text The loudest voices fixate on the border, but the real story is who benefits from the chaos. We dig into immigration with a scalpel, not a sledgehammer—why secular resettlement fuels isolation and fraud, how employer impunity drives illegal labor markets, and what happens when second-generation kids get culture without anchors and schools without skills. Phoenix’s integrated Iraqi community and the thriving Vietnamese small-business network in Orange County prove that assimilati...

Send us a text Ever leave a holiday table with strong opinions and a stronger urge to fix things? We channel that energy into a focused look at leadership, immigration, and the choices that actually move the needle. From Arkansas to Austin to Phoenix, we trace how context—not slogans—shapes outcomes, and why the details of placement, process, and community design determine whether newcomers struggle or thrive. We start with a lively debate over Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ Christmas proclamation,...

Send us a text The sunshine is bright, the takes are brighter, and Wacky Wednesday pulls no punches. We kick off our first video-driven edition by asking a simple question that threads through every segment: where did accountability go? From a prosecutor’s RICO overreach to a city’s promise of reparations without funding, and from viral narratives to conservative shock-jock theatrics, we track how incentives—not ideals—shape outcomes that citizens end up paying for. First, we unpack the Fani...

Send us a text Terrorism abroad, chaos at home, and a Caribbean chessboard most media won’t map—this episode threads them together and asks a blunt question: what does meaningful deterrence look like when our rivals profit from our disorder? We open with Australia’s attack and widen the lens to a triad of tactics—drugs, criminal pipelines, and propaganda—flowing through Venezuela with cover from Russia and China. If addiction footage props up autocrats, then narco-boats aren’t just crime; the...

Send us a text Bright lights, new studio, same mission: cut through the noise and defend common sense. We kick off with a hard look at surveillance creeping into daily life through Flock cameras, AI plate readers, and jurisdiction-free data sharing that records where you drive and who you pass—often without public consent. If you’ve ever been told “it’s just like your phone,” we unpack why that excuse fails, how these systems bypass warrants, and why local council votes matter more than natio...

Join me, Chad Law, on the Last Gay Conservative Podcast as we scrutinize the European Union's lackluster response to the Ukraine conflict. With a critical eye, I examine the reluctance of European leaders like Emmanuel Macron, who seem more comfortable discussing solutions than implementing them. We explore how Donald Trump’s peace initiatives highlight a gap in leadership and why it’s crucial for the U.S. to lead negot...

Terrorism abroad, chaos at home, and a Caribbean chessboard most media won’t map—this episode threads them together and asks a blunt question: what does meaningful deterrence look like when our rivals profit from our disorder? We open with Australia’s attack and widen the lens to a triad of tactics—drugs, criminal pipelines, and propaganda—flowing through Venezuela with cover from Russia and China. If addiction footage props up autocrats, then narco-boats aren’t just crime; they’re strategy. That’s why we dig into interdictions at sea, the argument for taking off the kid gloves, and the danger of letting Congress micromanage commanders while ducking its own basic work on healthcare and immigration.

The middle chapter turns to maps and muscle. Rand Paul warns that aggressive redistricting could spark violence; we look at decades of blue-state gerrymanders that erased GOP seats without riots and ask why Republicans should keep playing defense against a playbook that’s already cost them representation. We unpack packing and cracking, the limits of federal courts on partisan maps, and the reality that hardball—lawful, strategic, and unapologetic—wins terrain where hand-wringing loses it.

We close with kitchen-table economics that aren’t just about groceries. Newt Gingrich’s Reagan–Trump parallels set the stage for a shift: wages edging past inflation, energy markets stabilizing, and the pressing need to tackle healthcare, housing, and insurance costs that drain families long after checkout. Add a clear stance on immigration—welcoming legal pathways while shutting down illegal flows that depress wages—and the narrative sharpens into a plan: restore deterrence, restore supply-side momentum, and restore clarity on what actually moves paychecks and prices.
