Are We on the Verge of an Alien Invasion?

Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun totem, Bible-clanging, deplorable America. That's us! That's us! Bye. Yeah.

Hello. Love is American Touch starts. All right, welcome everybody. I just want to prepare you for something. This is going to be a weird edition of the Ton Sterns radio program.

So I don't want to be getting any calls. People saying, what Stern's been putting in the Dr. Pepper? No, I am incredibly sober, ladies and gentlemen. But after what happened last night on Newsmax, you really wonder what in the world is going on here.

And we're going to get to the president's speech a little bit later on. I. I don't think the president.

Well, let me just say this. I'll tease what I'm going to tell you about the president. I don't think that was the original speech he was supposed to deliver last night. I think, because really, I'm not sure. Why he said what he said and the way he did.

I have a couple of theories about that, and we'll share that a little bit later. Also, Congressman Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, announced that he would not be eating the cramped sandwich that Majority Leader Thun sent to the House. talking about the DH funding bill.

Well, now we understand that the House of Representatives has a hankering for a crap sandwich, and they've decided to wave the white flag, and we'll get into all of that as well. But I'm going to start today With This crazy story that unfolded last night on Newsmax.

Now, we've got to set this, we have to set this up real quick here.

So a few days ago, ex-Congressman Matt Gates from Florida was doing an interview, and he alleged that there was some sort of a human alien Breeding program going down. I want you to take a listen.

Okay, so there's classified stuff that you've seen that you can't talk about. What if that wasn't declassified? Trump says he's going to declassify it. What if that was declassified? What would happen with the American public?

I don't think I've seen probably some of the most interesting stuff to declassify. Again, I I think that If the things I've seen were declassified, the public's questions would be around. How this technology exists that can do some of these things and If we don't have it and if we uh don't believe anyone else on earth has it, you know, where do we think it came from? I think those would be the questions.

So it's like sp it's like space age technology that broke that like would break our brand? Uh it it would not be anything that y you know exists on earth. And you've seen that in classified settings. Uh I've I've I've seen things in classified settings that are not explainable with the technology we know is available. And I'm pretty well versed in that.

I was on the Armed Services Committee for eight years. I sat on the Emerging Threats subcommittee that oversaw everything going on in cyberspace, had access to DARPA and the projects they were working on, had special compartmentalized clearance that is above the clearance. of uh uh of uh of just uh you know uh a regular congressional briefing. And so uh and I I even got to see things that other members of Congress didn't get to see that weren't on the Armed Services Committee. All right.

He goes on to talk about there was a very secret program where aliens that were living were in forced breeding programs with humans that had been abducted from war zones and even the caravans of illegals.

So Let me just pause right here for a moment. Maybe we need to be sharing that information with these wannabe illegals coming across our border. You do that, you come into America illegally, you could get knocked up by ET. I mean, that might keep people from crossing the border. Unbelievable.

So, Congressman Tim Burchett last night on Newsmax. Was asked about all of this. And here's what the congressman told a very stunned Rob Fennerty. I don't have the tinfoil hat on just yet, Congressman, but I'm wondering. You know, kind of how you react to that because you are connected, you're on the UFO subcommittee.

I mean, I'm just wondering what you make of that. Have you heard anything like that?

Well, I'm still a member of Congress, so I can't really comment too much on what Matt said. Uh, but I will say this: wait, seriously, are you being serious, or is that tough? I'm being 100% serious. I've been 100% serious. I've been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is.

And I'll just tell you this, if they would release. The things that I've seen. You would stay up, you'd be up at night worrying about or thinking about this stuff. We just need to disclose it all. I'm sick of it.

You're...

Well, I was briefed. I'll just tell you this: I was briefed last week on an issue, or excuse me, two weeks ago. And um It would have set the earth on this. This country would have come unglued, I think, if they would have heard all that I heard. They would demand answers.

And we need to. But, you know, it's never going to get, unfortunately. It just keeps getting covered up and covered up, and the people that know are dying or disappearing, as the case may be. Wow. And for the record, I'm not suicidal, and I don't take risks.

I'm glad you said that. I'm speechless, Congressman. You should be. You should be. And I told the President, release it all.

And the problem is, the people that are around the President don't know the and the President doesn't know the questions to ask. A few of us are going to have to get with the president and tell him what he needs to ask and where he needs to look. I mean, you know, we're. We're in meetings and they give addresses and tell locations of items, I'll just say. And um The public has a right to know, Dad Gummet, it's your tax dollars.

Absolutely. You got my attention, Congressman. I appreciate you being as forthcoming as you have been tonight, and we look forward to having you back. Look, I know Donald Trump wants to disclose something. He hasn't done it yet, but I think he wants to be the President to do that.

Okay, where's Dylan? Are you under the desk right now? It's okay. It's daylight. The aliens normally do their work at night.

You're safe. I think I need to call my mom or something. Wow. This is scary. You're watching this last night on Newsmax and you're like, holy crap.

I heard poor Helen was just like laying in bed. She could not go to sleep last night.

Well, the problem is it's coming from Congressman Burchett, who I actually believe everything he says.

So. This is quite terrifying. I want to bring into the conversation. I didn't realize our good friend Andy Hoosier happens to be a UFO expert, and he is on the Patriot mobile newsmaker line. Andy, we were literally having our staff meeting, and Dylan says, You know, who's really into this is Andy Hoosier from Kansas.

And I had no idea. Yes, full disclosure, I have I've had the tinfoil hat on on that issue for a very long time. I am part of groups, Todd, that like to study that, that like to understand them. And look, the breeding program that Matt Gates tried to leak, is something to where I mean, there's organizations, there's people that and I say this allegedly for people that can believe whatever they want to, that channel, that communicate with EPs in some fashion, that meditate and talk to them or whatever, or say they've been abducted. They said that there's been breeding programs going on for decades That they've talked about for a long time.

So, this is you know what for me, Todd? I'm excited. because this has been disclosure that we have been waiting for for such a long time, and it's finally starting to come out. And God bless Tim Burchett and Anna Paulina Luna. And Nancy Mace and Matt Gates for these guys getting this information out here because it's something that a lot of people have been wanting to know, and we've already kind of known that it's been there.

We've just been waiting for them to finally come out and admit it.

So this is an exciting time, Todd.

Well, I'm not sure if it's exciting or somewhat terrifying. I don't think I could handle working, doing the hard labor in an alien, I don't know mining camp or something of that nature. I'm not sure I can do that, Andy Hoosier. But it just seems to me, it's just all very strange. And, you know, part of me wants to think they're yanking our chain here.

But I mean, these Tim Burchett, to Dylan's point, when Tim Burchett says something, this guy's a straight shooter.

So I'm wondering if we should really, really be paying attention to what this guy is trying to tell us. I really think so. I really think we should be paying attention. And look, there's different facets to this, and I've said this. Quite a bit is that as this information comes out, we have to put it into context because there are some that want to.

Create a lot of fear about it. And look, you know, we can go down the spiritual realm in the thought on this, on angels and demons. We can talk about what this really is. But at the end of the day, there's a lot of people that are going to use this. for personal gain, for an idea to try and weaponize the systems.

Look, we have these private military contractors that are back engineering this technology, these UFOs or whatever we may have, that's finally starting to come out to the point to where Congress doesn't even know a lot of this information, which is why they've been so frustrated to actually get it.

So I think they're right that if anybody is going to disclose this, it's going to be Donald Trump with the ego that he has and in a good way here that if he's going to if this is going to be his legacy of the guy that discloses the extraterrestrial life and technology that we have no idea about, It would be Donald Trump, someone who's not beholden to these people, someone who's not part of that quote-unquote deep state, and a Congress that's finally willing to go out there and say, get the information out. I think we're on the brink of a lot of information being dumped, and then we have to figure out how to process it all. We did an interview, a pre-taped interview. We're going to play it later on today in the show with Dr. Paul Chappell, who's one of the great theologians of our time.

And we asked him about, you know, what the Bible has to say about all of that. And we're going to save that part of the discussion for later in the show. But, you know, again, when you look at just in recent days with the orbs, the increasing number of so-called, I don't know, asteroids that are, you know, these meteorites that are coming in to the atmosphere. And a lot of people, I mean, this is a big topic of conversation at diners and places all across America, Andy. Yeah.

Oh, it's a big one. There's it's been underground for a long time. And of course, with the media, with how the Hollywood's been portrayed, that and it's obviously now we've seen actually from the CIA and from the government that a lot of that was done intentionally to stigmatize this issue for the tinfoil hat wearing, crazy conspiracy theorists, the people that may be on the wild lettuce kind of thing, that that's kind of the stigma that we've had for this for a while. And now it's becoming mainstream and people are trying to figure out how to How to discuss it. And I'm excited about that.

I'm excited for us to understand that there is so much more out there that we're not aware of and the games that are being played behind the scenes.

So, yeah, this information is going to come out, and we have to put it in perspective. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts with the chaplain later on the religious aspect to this because when I've read the Bible, if you substitute The idea of angel to E.T. and kind of describe those. You know, it makes a lot of sense that we've had a lot of these encounters for a very long time, and we've just tried to figure out how to describe them and how to actually put it into perspective. You know, when I read the book of Ezekiel and he talks about a chariot of fire descending from heaven with God, you know, it sounds like a UFO with a bunch of lights on it.

You know, it's an interesting perspective to take a look at these things. It's fascinating. I personally, I'm siding with, you know, these are angelic beings or demonic beings. I think that I do believe in spiritual warfare, you know, in America. At the same time, I've seen Independence Day.

I know what they did to Randy Quaid. And I we have to be able to do that. Nobody wants that. Nobody wants to get probed by an alien? If they wanted to do that, I think they could have done that for a long time.

I had a guest on my show. His name's Chris Bledsoe. He's one of the most researched abductees ever by the government, by institutions, by universities, and he still gets visions by whatever abducted him. And Todd, this is falling right in line because he predicted 15 years ago from a vision that he got from whatever these things are that we would get involved. with a conflict in Iran in twenty twenty six under Donald Trump and that we have major disclosure before Easter, and he did that and told the government about it fifteen years ago.

Are you serious? Are you yanking my chain here, Andy Hoosier? I am dead serious. He was on my program just a month ago talking about it. Yeah.

I just, Dylan, I don't know what to think about all of this. I mean, you got some poor guy living down in Alabama in a trailer park. He's minding his own business, watching wrestling. The next thing you know, a great beam of light, he gets shot up into the air, and you got some giant reptile sticking something up the poor guy's wazoo. Yeah.

Come on, man. There's a lot of crazy stuff going on, and you're right. There's a spiritual warfare going on, the good and the bad. And I think it's all about time where it's going to be coming to fruition for us. All right.

This is a fact. I'm just fascinated by this because, you know, I mean, everybody knows about our bell, and you know, and you sort of laugh off all of this stuff, but you're telling me this is a very serious topic of conversation, not just here in America, but around the world. It's a very serious conversation, not just about the ET side, but what kind of technology. Are we back engineering that we're not aware of? They say the government is 300 to 400 years more advanced in technology than what the average consumer in America actually has.

Where did they get that information? Where do they get that technology? And why aren't they disclosing it to the American people? Because it could really upset the entire system as we know it. Yeah, fascinating.

All right. Andy Hoosier, thank you for informing us. I don't know whether to be put at ease or even more horrified now. It's all up to us. Scott, I love it.

I appreciate it. It's a fun conversation for sure, and I can't wait to see what comes next. Andy Hoosier, the host of the great, and by the way, the head honcho over at our great affiliate, the big talker in Wichita, Kansas, KQAM. Andy, always good talking to you, my friend. Always a pleasure, brother.

Dylan? I can't. I can't understand. My mind can't comprehend what this conversation means. I don't either.

I just, my own, the only thing that concerns me now is that you do have members of Congress and people we trust. I trust Tim Burchett. I trust Anna Paulina Luna, Matt Gates. I don't know. But I will say that it does make you wonder what the heck does the government know?

And I'm with the congressman. You know what? We're all grown-ups. Let's just release all the information, put a stop to all this nonsense.

So. you know, Americans like poor Helen over here can get a good night's rest. That's all I'm saying. All right. You've heard the conversation, ladies and gentlemen.

You heard what Congressman Burchett had to say. What say you? 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-5926. This is the Todd Stearns Show.

A sacred season is approaching Passover when we remember God's deliverance the night he brought his people out of bondage and into freedom. I'm Todd Stearns, and this year many of God's people will observe in darkness under the shadow of war. Across Israel, red alert sirens pierce the air. Families run to shelters with seconds to spare. Elderly men and women fear they'll be left behind.

Passover reminds us that God hears the cries of his people and answers with love and compassion. And that's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground in Israel right now, providing food and emergency supplies, equipping bomb shelters, and caring for elderly Holocaust survivors. Just as his people once cried out for deliverance, vulnerable Israelis need your help. Help today. Your most generous Passover gift shows you stand with God's people.

To rush your gift, call 888-488-IFCJ. That's 888-488-IFCJ or give online at ifcj.org. That's ifcj.org. All right, welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Stearns radio show.

And I look for me as a person of faith, when it comes to all of this alien stuff, it's always been puzzling for me. I believe that God created everything.

So even if there are aliens, those are things that God created. And this was somehow part of his plan, something that I do not understand. But again, I think that most of the theologians are going to say, okay, these are really demonic spirits or beings. But when it gets elevated, when you have members of Congress like Tim Burchett, like Anna Paulina Luna, and others weighing in on the conversation. And especially in recent gosh, in the past year or so, we have just seen all of these these videos of these strange orbs and other things.

And it very well may be that these are military, you know, these are experimental military technology. That we're looking at, who knows? Who knows? But there are now some people that are weighing in saying this is all part of some sort of a big conspiracy, and there's going to be an effort to and hear me on this, this is but this may be a stretch. But the argument is that the existence of alien beings would be used by the globalist to create some sort of a one-world government where it would be Earth versus the aliens, is what they're saying.

I just find it all a fascinating conversation. I don't know about you, but I'd kind of like to know what Congressman Burchett has seen. And what he has heard. By the way, The congressman has been very concerned because there have been reports. of a number of scientists And experts in the field of these unidentified objects that have either been killed.

or have gone missing. And the congressman says this is a troubling pattern. That's why he mentioned that he's not suicidal. But most recently, retired Air Force Major General William McCassland, who had extensive knowledge of particle beam technology and UFO research, And he's gone, disappeared. Nobody knows where this guy is.

Anyway. Curious to hear your thoughts on this, 901-260-5926, this is the Todd Stern ship.

All right, welcome back to the Toncerns Radio Show. Happy to have you with us today. By the way, excited to welcome the former governor of Virginia, George Allen, who is going to drop by, and he is leading a statewide campaign. To stop the Democrats from getting rid of all these Republican congressional districts.

So, looking forward to having former Governor George Allen joining us in just a little while. Our telephone number, by the way, 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-5926. So, the squawking magpies over at the view. They are now alleging that all of you Trump supporters are just ignorant people who don't understand how life operates.

This is the conversation we heard just a few moments ago on The View. Also, there's like magical thinking that all of a sudden the gas prices, which are $10 in California in some parts, a gallon, and the stock market is in the toilet. He thinks this is magically going to come back. Does he really think we're that stupid? Yes.

Yeah. He does. Yeah, but I'm not one of the poorly educated, okay? Those are the ones he thinks he can get to, and those people are the ones who are going to turn on him.

Well, the crazy thing is, even the poorly educated recognize when they're being grifted. Yeah. Just because you don't have book learning doesn't mean you're not smart enough to know when somebody's bamboozling you.

Well, they're physically going, they're feeling it themselves at the pump. They're feeling it now. His approval rating is down to 35%, which is in an all-time low. And I didn't gain any clarity. 35%.

Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, numbers matter to him. All right. So is that true, ladies and gentlemen?

Is are you just simply ignoring reality? Your devotion to Trump is so great that you ignore the reality of the situation? I look, here's the deal. We we ran some numbers here. And there's no doubt about it.

Gas prices are high. They're as high as they were back in 2022. When Joe Biden was president, still lower, lower than when Biden was actually in office. But there's no doubt about it, and the president told us that the war in Iran, Operation Epic Fury, was going to lead to Operation. Higher prices at the pump.

And that is true. I am curious to know what you guys are paying in your towns or communities for a gallon of gasoline here in the Memphis area. I think it's what, $355, $360 a gallon now in California. In the most extreme places in California, it's $10 a gallon. Most places, a gallon of gas is going to cost you $6.

In in Los Angeles County, for example.

Now there's another factor in all of this, and the White House isn't talking about it, but we need to talk about it because this will start to impact prices again at the grocery store. The price of diesel is skyrocketing. As a matter of fact, there was one driver talking to Channel 7 in Los Angeles. Said that he usually pays $5,000 a month for diesel. This month he's paid over $9,000 a month.

So, as the price of diesel goes up, every single thing that you buy at the supermarket, everything you buy at Target or Walmart, all of those prices are going to Go up as well.

Now, the question is. How quickly will these prices drop? Once the war concludes. And the President last night I I don't think that if you're following this every single day, you're sitting back and thinking, I didn't get any new information out of this address last night. And that's true, you did not.

However, I don't believe that address was for the talk radio audience. I mean, you guys, you're plugged in every single day to what's going on. We've been following the war, we've been passing along the developments, and as the President said yesterday, we're bombing these people back to the Stone Age. And that's a good thing. But I think last night was for All of the guys that are watching March Madness, all of the gals, the soccer moms, maybe you're at the ballet or PTA, and the majority of Americans, an overwhelming majority of Americans, are not listening to or clued in or plugged into the political scene.

So, the first information they're ever getting about what's going on came from the president last night. And I think that's one of the reasons why this was a lot of regurgitated info that is shared pretty much daily on talk radio and on some of the cable news channels.

So, that's what I think is ultimately what last night was all about. It was basically. A war primer. For the rest of the nation. Here's why we went in.

This is what we are doing, and here's when we're going to. And well, he didn't say here's when we're going to get out because, again, why would the president do that? The president made very clear that the bombing is only going to become more severe.

So he wants the Iranians to understand that if you think it's bad now, it is going to get worse. Until there is a full and complete surrender. We don't know what the end game is for the president. We don't. President and the White House hasn't really conveyed that to us.

So we don't know: is this about. Getting the oil fields? Is this about regime change? Is it just about ending the nuclear program? What is this all about?

We don't know. We've been told a lot of different things, but we don't know and quite frankly, I'm okay with that right now. We want this war to end, and the best way to do that is for the military to go in there and bomb them back to the Stone Age, as the President rightly said. 901-260-5926 is our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926.

So I think the American people are still on board with the President and the war, and I'm curious to hear from you about that. If you believe that did the President make his case to the American people last night? all the the tens of millions of Americans who are not watching cable news, they're not listening to a talk radio show, do you believe that he made the case for those people last night?

Meanwhile. The Democrats, completely in a free fall, As a matter of fact, CNN doing some research, and it turns out even Democrats do not like Democrats. Take a listen to Cut7. These numbers are just atrociously awful. A double A for the Democrats here.

I mean, just take a look here. Congressional Dems have the right priorities. Look at this. Overall, 74%, nearly three in four, say no. Just 25% overall say yes.

You might say, okay, well, at least Dems like Democrats. Uh-uh. Not the case. Look at this. The majority of Democrats or independents who lean Democrats.

Look at this. 55% say no. Congressional Democrats do not have the right priorities. And then you just see a minority, 45% of Democrats say that congressional Democrats have the right priorities. This to me just jumps out at the screen because it screams primary challenges all over the map.

So there you have CNN, and their numbers are showing even the Democrats hate the Democrats. And to illustrate that point, I want you to hear what Rah Emmanuel has to say.

Now, Rah Emmanuel, former chief of staff for Barack Hussein Obama, he was Clinton's political director, Hillary Clinton's political director. And Rah Emmanuel, sitting down doing a podcast, and he just lays it out. This guy is a rock-solid, salt-of-the-earth Democrat. Take a listen. We lost the plot.

We as Democrats nationally, from Latinx to defunding the police, to police organizations are all racist, to bringing a set of cultural wars to our schools. We are on the losing side of those cultural wars. Full stop. You are worried about bathroom access and locker room access. Why don't you focus on classroom excellence?

You have 50% of our kids not reading at grade level.

Well, they can just say we can do both. You've proven you can't because you've permitted a 30-year low in reading and math scores, and nobody seems to be calling the whistle on this. We lost the plot. Why? Because the party got unanchored.

Every one of our most successful electoral presidents. Anchoring themselves in what I call middle-class values and values that are universal, at least in this country. ascribed to. We went from acceptance to advocacy. Big difference.

And I'll just take one on that I shouldn't.

So here it goes. I remember fighting for Title IX. The reason we are champions in women's sports in the Olympics, in soccer, hockey, etc., is Title IX. Why would you undercut the premise of Title IX with the ability of trans men playing in women's sports? To me, it's insane.

It's baffling. You are undermining one of the great accomplishments we as a country, but also spearheaded by the Democratic Party. Title IX, and we're undercutting it. Do you understand what we just heard here? You had Rob Emmanuel, a Democrat.

Delivering a better defense of Republican policies than Republicans have. And I'm telling you right now, this is, and by the way, Rahm Emmanuel is now an outlier of his own party. What he just said, I don't think the majority of Democrats actually agree with anymore. But there may be enough, I think, independents certainly do. And I would say there are a lot of people on the Republican side of the aisle who believe that.

And it just. I'm just wondering if we could start seeing the birth of multiple parties here. coming out of what the Democrats are doing and what the Republicans are not doing. It's a fascinating conversation. We're going to try to get Rob Emmanuel on the show for a longer form interview because clearly there's tons of stuff.

that I disagree with this guy about, but everything he just said. I agree with that a thousand per cent, and I bet many of you do as well. 901-260-5926, our number. Let's go to North Carolina. Dave, listening to us on the talk station.

Hi, Dave. What's on your mind? Hey, Doug, I was telling your call screener, you know, a lot of the way this is being done. Is just it. We're spending a lot of money and it's it's trumpy.

It's a lot of fake show. And the way a lot of the situation could be done could be handled differently, but a lot less expense. What situation are you talking about, Dave?

Well, Iran right now.

Okay. And one of the examples I gave her is like taking out the small boats off Venezuela. You don't need a bomb. You don't need a twenty thousand dollar ordinance to take out a vote, you know? And uh Or Well When they shot down the Chinese balloon, you know, had to use a uh missile to do that.

You know, a quick burst from an A-10 would have deflated the balloon, let it come down slowly. We could have captured it. Nope. And I realized that that was before that was different in this. But you know, we're we're spending tremendous amounts of money every day on this, and it's all about the big show and we're doing and we're spending money on what specifically what are we spending money on that you've got a problem with?

Well, the way the Iranian situation is being handled. And to say that there's not going to be boots on the ground now all of a sudden, well, we may have You cannot end anything. You can't wrap anything up without eyeballs there, because you don't know what's behind something. We don't know what at the last minute Russia's going to fly in and give Iran when we you know. politically, they're going to say, well, this thing's over.

And the next day, plane loads of new drones are are taken in. Yeah. you know, if they're not prepared for that, this whole thing is being handled by kids play in war. Got it. You've got to, first of all, you've got to get people in there where you can see.

And I don't know. I'm sure that.

Well I know for a fact that there's people on the ground that are getting intel, and most of it is Israeli. I get that. And I'm I know that we've got people in there.

So do you think we should have gotten involved in the war in the first place? Yes or no, I yeah, I think it's the first strike with the BQ run was was good. And I don't know what their battle damage assessment was after that, that led them to think other things, but I think that they got ground intel saying there's a lot more to this. than what we knew, which precipitated what's going on now. But I I think that You know, it's a Donald Trump thing where instead of handling it differently, it's all got to be a big show.

Well, how would it be? How would you handle it differently? I mean, what did he do that you don't appro you disagree with?

Well, what is the information to the people? And he's got to quit rambling on and on and on when he talks. He should have. Like bullet format outlines that say, you know, this is our goal, this is what we're doing, this is where we end. Come out for.

two minutes once a week and say This is where we You know, this is the plan. This is where we are. You know, that was the big thing with FDR during World War II, is people come out on the radio all the time. You know, you've got to keep people updated. Yeah, You know what?

You can't hide anything. If you've got American troops involved in something, Now you don't disclose it like when the SEALs went ashore and CNN was waiting for them. You know, that was horrible.

So, you don't give up plastic information.

So, no, no, no. I hear what you're saying. No, I think we got the gist of it. I'm going to have to scoot to a break here. Again, let me just say this, and I think your main argument is that we're spending a lot of money and we're using a lot of the ammo supplies.

I will say this: one of the big challenges we've got is we're facing a serious ammunition supply problem, a stockpile shortage. And the reason why is we gave most of our artillery to Ukraine. And our allies.

So we got to stop doing that. But as far as President Trump, and I think Dave had an issue with the messaging and the communications part of it. Look, you've got the War Secretary and General Kaine coming out at least once or twice a week, holding a press conference, and they're laying out everything they're doing. President hasn't been doing that, and that's really not the president's style. Is that maybe what maybe the president ought to consider doing that?

Well, that's a comms team decision. I don't necessarily have a problem with that at all. But the American people need to understand why we are over there. And I'm not sure that was conveyed in a very clear manner yesterday. But the reality is that whatever information they had was so bad.

and so terrifying That they had to take immediate action.

Now, here's what you need to understand about ballistic missiles. it is almost impossible to shoot those things down.

So if in fact Iran had that capability, To send a missile. To the United States, if they had that, if they discovered that Iran had that capability. Then, yeah, they had to go in and they had to destroy it all. And if you're going to go in, you got to finish the job. We should have done that with Iraq in the first war.

We didn't do it. And look what happened. All right, got to take a break here. 901-260-5926. This is the Todd Stern Show.

Here's something most people don't know. When Warren Buffett was just 13 years old, he didn't put his money into a savings account. While other kids were earning next to nothing at local banks, Buffett put $114 into a little-known investment. Today, that $114 would be worth over $15 million. And it wasn't a risky trade.

It wasn't even insider knowledge. It was an account that's been around since 1888. And over the last 25 years, it's averaged 29% a year. That's what happens when your money is allowed to compound. Compare that to today's savings accounts, paying less than half a percent, while inflation quietly eats away at your buying power.

Secret Account 29.com. Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's common sense conservative commentary from Todd Star. Ah. I'm so Love is American. And right.

Well, hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Sterns Radio Show. Great to have you with us today. And we start this hour, ladies and gentlemen, with some breaking news. Breaking news now on the Todd Starn Show.

Well, we can confirm that Pam Bondi has now been fired. She is out as Attorney General, and the reporting of Fox News is that Lee Zeldon, who is currently the EPA director, is being considered as her replacement. All of this unfolding pretty rapidly. We understand that Bondi was fired. Last night, she apparently met with the President in the Oval Office just ahead of the speech he delivered, where she was informed that she was being dismissed.

One of the sources said that by the time Trump took his place behind the podium, Bonnie had already lost her job and was back to was already on a plane back to Florida. We understand that Lee Zeldon, who is currently the Environmental Protection Agency Director, is going to be the replacement. You know, a lot of people have suggested perhaps. Judge Janine Pirro. But um We shall see.

A Justice Department spokesperson denied the reporting when reached for a comment. The Attorney General, quote, was with Trump for the speech last night.

So there you go. This is the headline now at Fox News.

So look, not surprising. Ladies and gentlemen, to hear this news. We have been quite critical of the the Attorney General. And the lack of action. I mean, the reality is, and again, this is the reporting of Fox News, so if this is in fact accurate, it is not surprising at all.

P.M.D. has um been problematic, and we've talked about this a lot on the program. She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. We've had incredible conversations. She is a very cordial person.

But the reality is that she was not being very effective in the role as Attorney General. And many people in the MAGA movement have been very upset. There's been no movement to prosecute the Russia-Russia collusion folks, the people behind that, the Clintons, the Hunter Biden laptop story. I mean, all of these massive scandals, nobody's been charged. Nobody's been punished for the attacks on Donald Trump, the sabotage of Donald Trump.

A lot of the cases, some of the high-profile cases from Charlie Kirk to the assassination attempts have been botched or bungled. There's just been a lot of chaos within the Justice Department.

So, we're going to open up the phone lines on this, and we will continue to bring you information as we get it. But Fox News is reporting that Attorney General Pam Bondi has been fired. Do you believe that she needed to lose her job? Was this the right move for the president to make? And who do you think ought to be the new attorney general?

Our telephone number, by the way, is 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-592. 5926, and we're going to be taking your calls on that. But again, this is breaking news, and we'll keep you updated. There have been a lot of departures from the Justice Department over the past couple of weeks, some of them high-profile, some of them not.

So there has been a lot of unrest. Of course, there have been the reporting going back for quite some time that Pam Bondi and Dan Bongino were at odds with one another. What a mess, what a mess. But the reality of it is very clear, ladies and gentlemen, that we have got to. We have got to start cracking down on these Democrats and this lawlessness.

And if If Pam Bondi could not do the job, Then we need somebody in there who can. And hear me on this. Hear me on this. If in fact Pam Bondi, Who is a very accomplished litigator, a very accomplished attorney? Pam Bondi may have actually taken a look at all the evidence that was compiled from all of these hearings up on Capitol Hill and determined that it was a bunch of nonsense and that there was no legal case here.

And if that was the case, then she needed to come out and lay out her cards, let everybody see what's going on. But clearly, the President upset with. The path that the Justice Department was going down and the lack of action. And how many times did the President say in public that Pam needed to get a move on?

Well, not in those those words specifically. But you know what I'm talking about. 901-260-5926 is our number. That's 901-260-5926. President Trump last night, by the way, talking to the nation, addressing the nation, we did not get much new intel.

And I explained that in the previous hour. And one of the reasons why is this speech last night, which was carried on every single major broadcast company, everybody carried this speech last night.

So Tens of millions of Americans were watching. And the reason why this was important is that speech was not for folks like us who live and breathe politics. This was for all the folks who do not. And the President laid out why we're over there and what we're doing over there. Anyway, here's the President.

Thanks to the progress we've made, I can say tonight that we are on track to complete all of America's military objectives shortly, very shortly. We are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks. We're going to bring them back to the Stone Ages where they belong. In the meantime, discussions are ongoing. Regime change was not our goal.

We never said regime change, but regime change has occurred because of. all of their original leaders death. They're all dead. The new group is less radical and much more reasonable. Yet if during this period of time no deal is made, we have our eyes on key targets.

If there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric generating plants very hard and probably simultaneously. We have not hit their oil, even though that's the easiest target of all. Because it would not give them even a small chance of survival or rebuilding.

So there you have the president sort of laying it all out there. And I love this approach. The president says they haven't even seen the worst of the worst yet. That's going to come.

So the Iranians have to be somewhat freaking out because in the past, you know, when Barack Hussein Obama was delivering the piles of cash, you know, the pallets of cash to the Iranians, they knew exactly what the Americans were going to do. but not any more. And that's exactly the way it should be. And if nothing else, the American people are revered and respected around the world now. There's another component to all of this, by the way.

And again, we're looking at some moving dynamics here. with relationships. And as we were talking about this yesterday, NATO. Is not offering a single penny to help the president here. Keep in mind, what we're doing in Iran is going to help the entire world.

But NATO doesn't want anything to do with it. As a matter of fact, there are military, there are nations. Like Spain and the UK, that will not allow the United States to use military bases or fly over their countries for operations.

Meanwhile, you have the Arab nations that are embracing Donald Trump. They're embracing the United States, and they're the ones that are saying, Thank you. God bless you, Mr. President. Or for the, you know.

For the idle Muslim countries. Allah bless you. We are watching a A really a change in dynamics where our allies may very well end up being the Arab nations and not NATO. And President Trump laid it out and said, hey, look, NATO nations, if you want that oil, well, you're going to have to clear the Strait of Hormuz. That's your job, not ours.

Otherwise, you're more than happy to buy oil from us or Venezuela, which is really our oil too.

So we'll see how all of that plays out. The only time those European nations want our help is when they're being invaded. And I say, you know what?

Next time, call somebody else. All right, we've got to take a break here, repeating our breaking news from Washington, and now CBS News confirming this as well. Attorney General Pam Bondi has been fired. We do not know of her replacement. I have no doubt that information will be coming out shortly.

We're hearing Lee Zeldon. We're going to be taking your calls on that. 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-5926. This is the Todd Stern Show.

Here's something most people don't know. When Warren Buffett was just 13 years old, he didn't put his money into a savings account. While other kids were earning next to nothing at local banks, Buffett put $114 into a little-known investment. Today, that $114 would be worth over $15 million. And it wasn't a risky trade.

Peter. Kaylee, I just got off the phone with President Trump. We have a big scoop. Pam Bondi will soon leave her job as the Attorney General. She is going to get a different job within the administration.

It doesn't sound like there is any bad blood between her and President Trump, but it does seem like they want her to go and do something else. And in an interim role, she will be replaced by Todd Blanch, who is currently her deputy at the Justice Department.

So it doesn't sound like Blanche is being elevated long-term to the Attorney General. There might be somebody else that the president wants to go in there. But President Trump soon will announce to the entire world that it is the end of Pam Bondi's time as the Attorney General. He still thinks that she is a great person and that she did a good job. And he still wants her in the fold because she will still be an important part of the administration, he tells me, but no longer as the top.

Law enforcement officer of the United States. That, at least for a little while, is going to be Todd Blanche. That's rather big news, and I'm sure you don't have the answer to this, but there have been some rumored names to replace her. Did you happen to catch that? Uh so far.

Todd Blanche.

Okay. All right. We'd be remiss if we didn't ask.

Okay. Thank you so much, Peter.

Okay, there you go, ladies and gentlemen. That's from Fox News. But we can now tell you that Todd Blanch is going to be at least temporarily replacing Pam Bondi as the interim AG. There have been a lot of talk about Lee Zeldon coming into that role full-time.

Now, what's interesting about Todd Blanche, this guy is actually.

Well, up until a few years ago, the guy was a Democrat.

So we're going to have to keep our eyes on Todd Blanche, and we'll let you know how all of that turns out. But. Wow. What was already a busy Newsday getting even a little bit busier? We are expecting the President to come out sometime and.

Make all of this official. But Clearly, there has been some upheaval, and the president's been really upset over the lack of movement on prosecuting all of these Democrats. And I don't blame the president. He has a right to be frustrated.

So we're taking your calls on this: 901-260-5926. Again, 901-260-5926.

So, I want to play this audio from Uh let's see here. Yes. So there has been an incident, a couple of incidents, at airports in Dallas. and Houston and Atlanta. Where Passengers have gone into the chapels.

Now, a lot of airports have chapels. And people go in there to pray or reflect or do whatever. And many of these chapels have now been turned into mosques. And a couple of, was it a couple of months ago, we talked to a pastor who had gone to the chapel in the Dallas Fort Worth airport. And he was actually told he was not allowed to enter because it was Muslim prayer time.

And that Christians were not allowed inside the airport chapel. And it created a lot of controversy. The airport said, no, no, no, no, no, that was just a misunderstanding.

Well, it turned out not to be a misunderstanding. And that now Muslims are taking over these prayer rooms at airports around the country. Take a listen. Remember how we talked about we all kind of woke up after Mom Donnie got elected and now we've been talking about all these things that are going on in Georgia, these facilities that are being built, all the mosques in Texas, all the mosques up near Atlanta that were fourth in line. That the mosque are actually Ford operating bases.

It wouldn't surprise me if they don't have guns and ammo stored inside. But did you know that one of our major airports, Houston Airport, just added a full Muslim mosque experience? It has separate private prayer rooms for men and women. It's a really fancy wudu washing station so they can pray before prayer. Webla direction to show them how to face towards Mecca.

That's right. Very, very fancy. I mean, I think this washing station is like gold and it looks pretty fancy to me. And then Atlanta now offers at their airport a Friday Muslim prayer service and they also offer the Quran and prayer rugs as needed and a many wudu. station.

They said it was due to demand and so they could keep up with the rest of the world. And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. It's just Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

the Islamification of America. And it's been happening it's been happening under the radar for so long that a lot of folks are just now waking up and understanding what's really going on here. Incredibly troubling. But anyway, it's all paid for by your tax dollars.

So you, ladies and gentlemen, are literally paying for the Islamification. Of your own country. 901-260-5926 is our telephone number. That's 901-260-5926. By the way, coming up tonight on the Todd Stern Show on Newsmax, we're going to have the very latest On what's happening with Pam Bondi and the Attorney General.

By the way, folks, coming up, Luke Symbol is going to be joining us momentarily, one of our great Republican strategists.

We'll get his take on what just happened with Pam Bondi. Also, ladies and gentlemen, excited to announce we have even more people endorsing my new book. It's called The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America. Senator Marsha Blackburn, Congressman Ron Estes out of Kansas, among those that are signing on, of course, Speaker Mike Johnson has endorsed the book as well as the President of these great United States. But more importantly than all of that, I want you to endorse the book.

I want you to preorder a copy today. This is the book that is going to help shape the future direction of the country. Because we take a look at the great successes of Donald J. Trump, And we explain how we are going to have to pick up the mantle and carry the America first torch into the next generation. How do we do that?

Well, I lay out the plan in the golden age, How Trump Saved America.

So I want you to get a copy. We need your help at this. And I'm telling you today, we need, if we could just have a thousand of our listeners going in the break to Amazon or Barnes Noble and pre-ordering a copy, that is going to be so helpful to us and to our publisher as we get ready for launch day. Book will officially be out in May, but we want you to pre-order right now, primarily because the last book sold out three days after it came out of bookstores.

So we want to avoid that happening. And the way you can help is this pre-ordering. We need a thousand of our listeners right now to go to Amazon or Barnes Noble. And purchase a copy of The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America. We'll be right back, everybody.

All right, welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Sterns Radio Show, and of course, the breaking news, Pam Bondi, out. The president says they're going to find something else for her to do in the administration. That's from the reporting of Fox News. CBS News also now reporting it.

I want to welcome into the conversation our good friend Luke Simbel, Republican strategist. Luke, your reaction to this breaking news. Look, I think we knew it was coming. There have been rumblings about it for a while. And I thank Pam Bondi for her service.

I think she served a purpose when she was first brought in as AG. And now we are really needing somebody who can lead the entire institution. As Trump wants it to be led. And again, I like Pam Bondi personally. She has been incredibly kind to me, to Memphis.

But we need somebody that can lead the institution. And, you know, we have the House Oversight Committee and we have a lot of investigations going on with criminal actions by Democrats. You have Elon Omar marrying her brother, immigration fraud. You have investigations into what Democrats were doing under the Biden administration. And Trump really wants to pursue some of that.

And it's not happening. No, it's not happening. And that's the thing. We had the vice president sat down for an interview with one of the podcasters the other day. And the vice president was like, oh, yeah, we got the goods on Ilhan Omar.

Okay, well, first of all, why are you telling us that? Why aren't you doing something? Has she been arrested? Has she been indicted? If not, why are you telling us this?

Well, and we've been hearing forever about this ACT Blue money laundering scheme where the Democrats were illegally moving money around through their donation site apparatus. And I've been hearing about it for months and months, but there are no indictments. Where is the DOJ following up on it? You know, again, she served a purpose at the very beginning of the administration. She is a nice lady, but it's time that we have somebody run it who knows how to run large institutions like that and will further Trump's agenda.

I had heard the name Lee Zeldin a lot on X Today and then kind of the pundit apparatus. I was very excited about that. My understanding is now Todd Blanche will be acting. AG, but I think Lise Eldon would make an excellent Attorney General. All right.

Let's go to the phones real quick here. 901-260-5926. We have John in Georgia. All right, John, what do you think about this news? Todd, you're a great American.

Well, thank you.

Okay. Uh Party my opinion it's not going to matter who they put in charge of the DOJ or the FBI I think they're both controlled by other forces And nothing's all these investigations are just A waste of time. They're never going to do anything to any of these people. They're never going to prosecute any of these. politicians or you know It's just never going to happen.

That's my opinion anyway. I'm 70 years old. I've been around for a little while, so. Uh I just It's kind of disgusting to me, but that's just the way I feel.

So, John, I think I understand exactly what you're talking about here. And the same thing happened with Jeff Sessions during the first Trump term in office. Luke, you had all of these, you had the president wanting the Attorney General to take action on all the people who did him wrong, did him dirty. That never happened.

Now you've got Pam Bondi in office. She didn't do anything. Todd Blanche, who just up until a couple of years ago was a Democrat, I know he's a placeholder, but I would have some serious questions about that. We need somebody with a proven track record of not only defending President Trump and furthering his agenda, but who can lead in the organization. And that's why I said just a few moments ago that somebody like Elise Eldon, who I'm from, I grew up in New York State, who did a really great job running for governor, won several congressional districts.

His gubernatorial race carried several congressional districts. It's the reason we won the House and back when he ran. And I think he's an example of somebody who knows how to run these institutions, root out the problems while furthering Trump's agenda. And you're right. And Trump didn't just want to go after the people who did and dirty.

These are the people who acted illegally. This is holding everybody to the same standard under the law, and it's time that we right the ship. We have seen the DOJ go after conservatives time and time and time again. And it's time to write the ship and say nobody is above the law. And we know for a fact that Elon Omar, the Democrats' online fundraising apparatus, we know that there are issues there and the DOJ has to do something about it.

Luke Simbel joining us in studio in our telephone number, 901-260-5926. If you'd like to join the conversation, that's 901-260-5926. Luke, last night, the president coming out and delivering a speech to the nation. Were you satisfied with what the president had to say, and is he making the case for the base? Um I will tell you, I scoured X last night after that speech to see what was being said, and not a lot was said.

And what that tells me is this is a problem for us in the midterms. I do not think that the average American is buying the story that we need to be as involved as we are. In this Iranian conflict. And what I am hoping is. That we can accomplish, and the President Trump said this last night: that we can accomplish the mission very quickly.

And when I say quickly, I mean like within the next couple of weeks, because we've got to wrap this up. We have to get gas prices down to where they were before. Inflation was falling, the economy was turning around, and all of that has halted right now because of this conflict. Prices are rising again. Gas, I mean, it is more than doubled.

What it was just a month ago to fill up your car. We have to end this quickly and then focus on the midterm so people can feel that economy moving and we can focus on America. When you look at the gas situation, that is, it will, I think it will, in fact, those prices will go down. The challenge is, if we are still fighting this war for even a couple of more months, those prices at the grocery store and other things like automobiles, all of that's going to go up. The price of purchasing things, and I think that is going to be problematic for the Republicans.

It will be very problematic, and that's why I say this needs to be wrapped up in weeks, not months. All right. Luke Symbol, ladies and gentlemen, what say you? 901-260-5926. That's 901-260-5926.

I know in Tennessee, for example, big race coming up for governor, South Carolina. A lot of folks are wondering about Lindsey Graham over in South Carolina. And somebody from one of the major newspapers had reached out to me and said, what's your take on that? Does Lindsey Graham, is he threatened by these primary opponents? And I don't think he is.

And when you look at the primary opponents, I don't think they're strong enough to take on a Lindsey Graham. What about here in Tennessee?

Well, here in Tennessee, all the polling shows that Marsha Blackburn is just running away with the race. She's 50 points ahead of the next two. I think John Rose, who's running the last poll, showed about 7%. And then Monty Fritz showed about 4%. And you're right about Lindsey Graham.

This is not a John Cornyman versus Ken Paxton situation at all. Ken Paxton is well known in the state. In Texas, he made a lot of news. Conservatives really liked him. He's viewed as a conservative fighter.

And that's why John Cornyn is having such an issue with this primary. Lindsey Graham is running against opponents who are not nearly as strong, are not nearly as well known, and there are two major opponents.

So Lindsey Graham is going to be fine, and he always gets a healthy portion of that primary vote in South Carolina. All right, Luke Symbol joining us here. Any other big races we need that you're looking at that you're interested in? You know, I mean, not really. It's just, it's the messaging I'm focused on coming out of the White House on the midterms.

And that's why I say right now we are really distracted with the Iranian conflict. It makes me very concerned that we're not focusing on the things that we need to focus on to get out the base in the midterms. And when the Democrats, if the Democrats take over the House, and there are some even saying they may take over the Senate, I'm not totally convinced on that, but if they take over the House, Donald Trump will be impeached, and it's going to be investigation after investigation, and we're not going to get anything done. And although some would say we're not really getting a lot done, we can't even pass the SAVE Act, apparently.

So we're not getting anything done. I wish people would look at what's happening in Tennessee because we actually do have voter ID. You've got to show your ID. I love telling the story. I went to my local voting place in my town, and the lady who was at the front desk, a good friend of mine, and we had a great little conversation, I said, I'm here to vote.

She says, I got to see your ID, Todd. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. How easy is it? And how offensive is it to minorities and women when the Democrats are saying minorities and women can't figure out how to get an ID?

I mean, I see a lot of women buying wine at the grocery store. I mean, what's. You know, it's just it's so offensive and condescending, and everybody knows it's bunk. And but the fact that we cannot pass the SAVE Act through the Senate is a is a major, major problem, and it's going to severely hurt Republicans. It's discouraging to the base.

One of the funniest things I saw the other day, there was this was trending on social media. You had a black pastor or a politician, he was in a church filled with black voters, and he was trying to make the point that voter ID was going to disenfranchise the black community, minority community. He said, How many of you people in here have an ID? And everybody's hand, everybody raised their hand. It's like, well, so much for that argument.

That's just offensive and condescending. I mean, you want to talk about racism. To me, that's racist to say black people don't know how to figure out how to get an ID. It's unacceptable. I love it.

It's a great thing. And I agree. I think when you look at the numbers, the polling data, just as many Democrats as Republicans think we should be able to show an ID when you go to vote. You know, where I grew up in New York State, it Is literally illegal to ask somebody to prove who they are when you're voting. Like, you are not allowed to ask for an ID.

I could say my name is Sally Sue, and Sally Sue is a four-foot nine-white old lady, and I could go in there and say I'm Sally Sue, and I could vote under her name because there's no ID checks. But here's the bottom line: everybody's all concerned about the redistricting. Everybody's concerned about the gerrymandering. All of that goes away if we can just have a fair election. I mean, if we have fair elections, Republicans are going to win.

I totally agree with you. And speaking of gerrymandering, I think it's very interesting, these redrawing of congressional maps across the country to try to get more Republicans or more Democrats. And it will be interesting to see, Todd. We have a race here in Tennessee with Steve Cohen, a longtime senator, excuse me, a longtime congressman in Memphis, with a young man running against him, Justin Pearson, who's really a radical advocate. Activists.

And that is a very serious race to watch. And I have the sneaking suspicion that if the radical guy wins, Tennessee will be redrawing its map because we have no interest in sending somebody like that to Congress. He's basically Jasmine Crockett with the power throw. You are exactly right. Same story.

Went to a Tony school up in the Northeast. There's videos of him with a totally different dialect. And then he runs for office, local office here in Memphis, and he's a completely different person. I mean, it's just unbelievable. He talks whiter than me when he's around white people.

He talks blacker than Jasmine Crockett when he's around black people. He's really remarkable. I'm just like, dude, pick a dialect. You're exactly right. But what I found fascinating, the New York Times actually did a big story about that particular congressional race.

And what I found. I knew this was gonna happen.

So, Steve Cohen is a classic liberal, not a progressive, he's a liberal. And he's a white guy and he's Jewish, and he represents an overwhelmingly black congressional district. Yep. And so they're framing this literally in the headline: a white, basically a white, long tie, a white guy versus a black guy, an old white guy versus a young black guy. This is going to be about race.

It's going to get ugly. I totally agree with you. It's going to be a nasty, nasty primary June, July, leading to the August primary. And I. I don't know who's going to win.

And it's just this classic example of the Democrat Party, the Radicals taking over the Democrat Party. I mean, it really is. And the ultimate reality, and you said I want to feel sorry for Steve Cohen about what's to happen, but I really can't because he is a mean, nasty guy. He is a mean, nasty guy. But I will tell you, Todd, I never thought I would find myself rooting for Steve Cohen to win anything, but I'm kind of rooting for him to, I mean, he does bring some things back for Memphis, and I just don't think this Justin Pearson guy, you know, Jasmine Crockett 2.0, is going to bring anything back for Memphis.

I think you're right. It's going to be a fun. I've got my Dr. Pepper. I've got the Orville Redenbacher, and I'm going to be watching this one, and I'm going to be laughing my head off.

That's going to be one heck of a Democrat primary. And it will show the country what's happening to the Democrat Party. Absolutely. And if Justin Pearson gets elected, you're going to have another Jasmine Crockett Ilhan Omar-style candidate coming out of all places, the state of Tennessee.

So that's kind of shocking. You're exactly right. All right. Good to see you, Luke. Thank you for having me.

All right. Hang tight, everybody. Got to take a break. All right, welcome back, everybody. This is.

The Tom Starns Radio Show. My goodness, what a day it's been. Dylan, I'm still trying to get a handle on. What exactly happened in the first hour of the show with the whole aliens thing? Yeah, it's a little creepy.

I don't know how to take it. I go to church, I'm a religious person, so I like to think on the same lines as you. Is there some spiritual aspect to this? that you know maybe we don't know about, maybe we're not supposed to know about, but Yeah. Mm.

Crazy. It's just crazy. All right, we're going to be talking to Dr. Paul Chample about that a little bit later on. The next hour of the show, we're excited to have the former Governor of Virginia George Allen joining us.

And he is really fired up. And I'm curious, we have a lot of listeners across the Commonwealth of Virginia. And I'm curious to hear your thoughts on what the Democrats are trying to do. They basically want to destroy the Republican Party there. And one of the ways they're going to do that is by this gerrymandering of congressional districts.

And when it's all said and done, you would be left with one Republican lawmaker.

So, George Allen is now leading the charge, and he wants to debate Abigail Spanberger. And he's throwing down the gauntlet and saying, Hey, look, I want to debate you on this issue.

So, we're going to be talking to the governor coming up at the next hour. Also, again, Dr. Paul Chappell as well. Interesting story over on Breitbart, where now Congressman Brandon Gill becomes the latest lawmaker to say the Senate needs serious change. You know, I think we can all agree with that.

Everybody is so upset over the lack of action and the lack of movement in the Senate. And Jon Thune doesn't want to listen to anybody. I mean, John Thune is he's being backed, being supported by Mitch McConnell. And that's that.

So he is not going to do what Trump wants him to do. And I think there could be some blowback there. But again, Congressman Brandon Gill saying the Senate needs serious change. And he says one of the ways to start that is by electing Ken Paxton. Ken Paxton is leading in all of the polling data we've seen.

I'm curious to hear from all of our Texas listeners, and we've got a number of stations out in Texas that now carry this show. Where do you guys stand on this? Are you siding with John Cornyn? Are you going to vote for John Cornyn? Or are you going to support?

and vote for Ken Paxton, your current Attorney General. But according to Breitpart, The Senate has failed to pass the single most important piece of legislation in front of Congress, which is the Save America Act, in spite of President Trump's full backing, in spite of overwhelming support from the American people on both sides of the aisle. And they also, of course, failed to properly fund the Department of Homeland Security.

So if we're going to enact President Trump's agenda, we're going to have to get MAGA senators elected to Congress. And as Breitbart says, Ken Paxton is a warrior who is ready, willing, and able to do whatever is necessary to support the President and the Senate. which is exactly what Texas needs.

So we'll get into some of that in the next hour as well. 901 260 5926 is our telephone number. During the break, head over to Amazon and order a copy of my new book, The Golden Age How Trump Saved America. You can also go to Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Books a Million, wherever you buy your books. All right, hang tight, everybody.

Hour three of the big show coming up next. Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's conservative blowtorch. That's us! That's us! Right, I know.

American Todd starts. And hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Stearns Radio Show. Great to have you with us today. Hour three.

of what has been a very busy, very busy Tuesday. And I look forward to seeing all of you, of course, tonight, 5 o'clock Eastern on the Todd Stern Show, which you can watch on Newsmax. That's 5 o'clock Eastern time. One of the other big stories that we've been following involves the Commonwealth of Virginia, where the Democrats who campaigned as moderates, Turned out not to be so moderate after all. As a matter of fact, they're anything but moderate.

We're talking about radical progressives. And one of the big concerns is redistricting the gerrymandering of congressional districts. Democrats really want to stick it to the Republicans.

Well, our next guest says, not going to happen under my watch. He is the former senator from the Commonwealth, a former governor of the Commonwealth, a great American patriot, George Allen. Good to have you with us today. Great to be with you, Todd. They're in West Tennessee, but I know you have stations in Virginia.

We have. We have a lot of stations. Yes, sir. And that's why one of the reasons we wanted you to come on the program, Governor, to talk about Abigail Spanberger and you're jumping into the fight here. First of all, you could be sitting back at, I don't know, Virginia Beach, having a nice cold beverage, but why are you jumping into the fight?

The reason, Todd, is I actually care about representative democracy. This is the 250th anniversary. of our Declaration of Independence from the British monarchy. And what's happening in Virginia right now is these Democrats Funded primarily by these monarchical elitists, out of New York, California, the DC area, northern Virginia. are trying to take away Honest, fair districts to rig elections so that in Virginia, right now.

There are six Democrats and five Republicans. in Congress. They want to have these maps in such a way that it'll be 10 Democrats, one Republican. meaning that conservatives are represented by about nine percent of the state. Even worse.

is how they're doing this. Our current maps are very fair maps. We have, and I advocated for this everywhere from Bristol to Northern Virginia to Virginia Beach. A couple of five years ago, a constitutional amendment for an independent bipartisan commission to draw up districts that are fair, that are communities of similar interests. It's graded in A is f by the Princeton project.

What they want to do is take, for example, the Shenandoah Valley. That has a congressman right now. And they divide it up five different ways. And they have these districts that look like lobsters, they look like squid, they look like. Ostriches, they look like giraffes.

And it's a way for Northern Virginia to control five members of Congress as opposed to three that they have presently. Here in the Tidewater area, We have three representatives. They're going to reduce that to two. and give that one to Northern Virginia. And the Virginia Farm Bureau, by the way, to their courageous credit, has come out against it because it's giving away the voice or taking away the voice of the people in rural areas.

And outer suburbs, and giving it to densely populated. Urban areas. And so I've I've actually challenged or invited our current governor. Spandberger to three debates in Virginia. She before the election, she didn't mention nothing about this.

Then all of a sudden, they're rushing this thing through, trying to have a vote, and they'll have a vote. It's going on now until April 21st. And they've got about $40 million in this money coming in from out of state. And they're trying to inveigle and sucker Virginians into giving up their voices for this partisan political power play. And most Virginians, and by the way, the referendum to amend the Constitution of Virginia, the voters have to approve it.

And it was 66% in 2020. 2.7 million Virginians voted. To have in Independent commissions deciding districts, not the conniving, meddling hand. Of potters who try to rig the results the way they want it rather than the people choosing who they think is the best. best person to represent their voices.

I I hesitate to ask this question, but I'm wondering, have you found any folks on the Democrat side of the aisle who actually agree with you here that this is all a very bad idea from from Spanberger and the Democrats? I'm sure glad you asked, Todd. Yes, I have. And in fact, I'm in a group called No Gerrymandering Virginia. It is a bipartisan group.

Our key advisor, so to speak, is a fellow named Brian Cannon, a reasonable Democrat. He and I went all over Virginia trying to persuade Republicans and Democrats for this. Really laudatory constitutional amendment for an independent commission. And so he's with us. And then we also have another person named Chap Peterson.

A Democrat from Northern Virginia, a man of integrity. He got knocked out of the Democrat primary. Because he had the temerity of saying that they were excessively shutting down businesses with all these caging of Virginians and enterprises and schools during the COVID pandemic. Virginia was not governed. like y'all were in Tennessee, which was very admirable in Tennessee and Virginia.

Was disgusting with the timid acquiescence to all this. But Chat Peterson, because he actually. Stood up for certain principles and common sense gets knocked out in a Democrat primary.

So we are finding. that there are Obviously, Republicans, if they're aware, they're going to be voting against this power grab. Independents are still trying to figure it all out, Libertarians. And there are Democrats. There are Democrats, and I may not say it's a majority, but there are Democrats who say, wait a second, we've been fighting for this for a long time.

Why are we punishing Virginia? People, the people of Virginia, because you're upset about President Trump or Texas legislature or Missouri, and we try to say: look, yeah, what President Trump and Texas did was wrong. But let's look at South Carolina, let's look at Kansas, or the most notable Indiana, where the Republicans there said, we're not going to do this abnormal mid-decade gerrymandering, and they took a lot of heat. But they stood for principle. And so we're looking for people to be with us on this to protect honest, fair, Districts in our representative democracy.

Governor, I think one of the things that we've also got to talk about is what's going on within the Republican Party right now that actually led to the Democrats winning in the elections. I don't know: are Republicans not staying home? Are they not getting out there and voting in these off-presidential cycle elections? And what do we need to do to get Republican voters engaged again? Another group Great question.

And I'm not going to say that the campaign for governor last year was not a really well-run campaign. Nonetheless, And places That should be voting bigger, for example, Southwest Virginia, the Shenandoah Valley, Southside Virginia. Uh the votes weren't They weren't turning out the way they had previously. I'm not saying that if they had turned out. That it would have made a difference in the governor's race.

They might have lost by 9% rather than 15%. But it's absolutely essential. Absolutely essential that folks in Southwest Virginia, the Shenandoah Valley. Tidewater area, Southside Virginia, the Piedmont, these places, these districts that they have. I know not everyone doesn't give you a little geography tour of Virginia.

But they got places that are in the suburbs of Richmond that are represented. by would would be represented poorly, of course, by Members of Congress from densely populated northern Virginia. You have these farm areas along the Chesapeake Bay. They're Subjugated North Virginia interests, and it's just so wrong. Our Constitution, as in many states, say.

Districts are to be compact, contiguous with communities of similar interests. They completely ignored it all. And they're rushing this through, ramming it through. Fortunately, but for your Virginia listeners, You're seeing all these ads are such deceptive, deceitful ads. And the reality is, just a few years ago, Abigail Spanberger, our present governor, said that gerrymandering was detrimental to democracy.

And so now she's kowtowed. to these New York and California and DC. Political influences. And so, what they're trying to do is steal and cheat. for the next six years and get four congressional districts.

Because to me, it evinces that they don't have much confidence. In the quality of their candidates or the popularity of their agenda, that they have to go to this extent. to to gerrymander and rig the election results. Regardless of what the quality or popularity of their ideas may be.

Well, I think this is a great thing you're doing, Governor, and I think it has to be done. And again, I think, you know, again, Republican voters, and right now we've got it's sort of an odd thing that's happening within the party. You've got populists, you've got who folks might call establishment, you've got evangelicals. I think everybody's going to have to get on the same plate here. And one of the most important things, we're also going to have to be smart when it comes to picking candidates that are actually electable.

And I think that's a problem that we've seen nationwide when it comes to some of these congressional races, Governor. Yeah, Todd, I always remember William F. Buckley said, nominate the most conservative candidate who can win. That's it. And Todd, you get it.

And the reality is, this is something that whatever these different I'll say it's always hard to get all the wings of the Republican Party flapping together in the same direction. But this gerrymandering is such a threat to conservative voices and their representation in Congress, everyone should be united with it. Then the key is to get Independent voters to also agree and get out and vote. They look at, oh gosh, these Republicans and Democrats are all spussing. And if we can get 10%.

Or even 15% of Democrats to vote against this. we can win. And it's a vassal uprising. We're getting outspent. Gosh, four to five to six to one.

But if we can have the people get out and vote, we are the owners of the government. And then this year, again, the 250th anniversary. Of our Declaration of Independence here in Virginia, which is the cradle of American liberty. We ought to stand up and say, no, we're not going to give up. fair representation in Congress.

And I'd be connected. It will be a great win. It'd be an upset, but as long as I'm breathing and living, I'm going to be fighting for things that. I believe in in one of a former Tennessean is one of beyond Ronald Reagan is my mod modern political hero. The ones through history are Thomas Jefferson and Crockett, David Crockett, who stood up for principle.

And I remember when he lost his election in Tennessee because he opposed President Jackson's Indian Removal Act. He said, y'all may go to Hale. I'm going to Texas. And everyone remembers the Alamo, and inspired Tennessee and the volunteer state and inspires me and people who love liberty. And so we need to stand up for what is right.

And I think this is the principle. That is so important. There's too much hypocrisy and situational principles in politics these days. But this is one that should unite everyone who believes in our republic and the proper representation in our government officials.

Well, Governor, I know we have radio stations that carry this show from Bristol all the way to Richmond and parts in between. And folks are really fired up. And we certainly appreciate you coming on and shining some light on this. Again, folks, we're going to pay very close attention to this. Governor, we'd love to get you on between now and the referendum.

Again, just to hit home the importance of this. And, Republicans, the fate of your future is in your hands.

So be sure to get out there and vote. Governor, thank you for joining us. My pleasure, and thank you, Todd. You're just outstanding to be helping the cause. All right.

The great George Allen, ladies and gentlemen, former governor, former senator. And you know what? He could be hanging out, enjoying retirement, but he is in the fight because he understands how important it is for the Republic. We've got to stand, and we've got to take a stand here, folks. That's what it's all about.

And we've got to take a break. 901-260-5926. Curious to hear from our Virginia listeners: have you gotten out there? Have you done early voting? And what's the mood out there?

This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back to the Totserns Radio Show. Let's go right to the phone lines: 901-260-5926. Milwaukee, our good friend Jerry the Liberal. Jerry, what's on your mind today?

Yeah, Todd, I agree. We shouldn't have gerrymandering, but if we're going to do it, we have to do it nationwide because no. Neither of the major political parties are going to choose not to do it. I mean, I hope the governor wants to end it nationwide because unfortunately, It seems like Republicans only started really more caring about gerrymandering is when it started hurting them. I I hope that's not what it is.

Because in my state of Wisconsin, we've been gerrymandered to death for the last fifteen years, even though we're exactly like a purple state, half Democrats and half Republicans. And I would love to see no gerrymandering throughout the country, but you've got to do it through a national legislation.

So we've actually, there have been some studies done, Jerry. And look, I agree with you. I think the gerrymandering is out of control. But the reality is the facts are that it's the Democrat Party that is more guilty of gerrymandering than the Republicans. And when you look at, for example, all of New England, where you've got, you don't have any representation of Republicans in Congress.

I know Arnold Schwarzenegger brought up New Mexico. 45% of the voters in New Mexico backed Republicans, and yet there are no Republican representatives in the House because of the gerrymandering there. Oh.

Okay, that's fine.

So if it's the problem, we end it nationwide. We don't look to say that this party is one necessary worse than the other. We just did federal legislation. Democrats have supported national legislation. Republicans, unfortunately, haven't.

I think this cha uh hopefully changes the minds of Republicans to support such legislation. But the issue is, why aren't the Democrats why are the Democrats doing this? Why are they punishing Republican voters? By the way, and you mentioned parties, Indiana, Indiana Republicans refused to go down that path, even though it would have helped their own party. They chose not to do that.

That just happened. Why did Republican politicians in Wisconsin punish me as a Milwaukee voter and dilute my vote for the last 15 years? I've hyper-gerrymander districts. Jerry, I'm going to tell you, I'm just going to tell you, you're going to live a better life under Republican governor, my friends. All I'm asking is fair elections nationwide.

Let's have fair elections in Massachusetts, New Mexico, Wisconsin, Indiana. You know, every state. No gerrymandering. That's all I'm saying. Well, that's something you're going to have to take up with the Democrats because, Jerry, ultimately, most guilty of it.

Do you think that what's going on? Hold on, hold on. Just a second here, Jerry.

So what just happened in Virginia, where you've got a woman running for governor, and she lied to the voters. She said she was a moderate. She's a radical progressive. And she has long opposed, allegedly opposed gerrymandering. She gets elected.

She's a radical progressive. She's putting in all of these policies and she's about to wipe out Republican representation. Don't you have a problem with that? Yeah, I have a problem with that until we have a national ban on it. But in the meantime, there's no.

No, it's a state-by-state, it's a state-by-state decision. You can't say Democrats shouldn't gerrymander, but okay for Republicans a gerrymander. That's not going to go. Both sides have to agree to end it.

Well, that's a much longer conversation. But the fact of the matter is, Republicans are not playing the game that the Democrats are playing. That's the problem. Jerry got a run. 901-260-5926.

That's 901-2600. 260-5926. This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back, everybody. Great to have you.

With us.

So, as we mentioned earlier in the show, former Congressman Matt Gates sort of launched or sparked a national controversy when he said that he had been briefed as a congressman on a hybrid race mixing humans and aliens. In other words, It was an alien breeding program.

Now, a lot of people didn't know how to take all of that until Congressman Tim Burchett showed up on Newsmax last night, and Congressman Burchett. Pretty much terrified the nation. Let's take a listen to what the congressman had to say. I don't have the tinfoil hat on just yet, Congressman, but I'm wondering. You know, kind of how you react to that because you are connected, you're on the UFO subcommittee.

I mean, I'm just wondering what you make of that. Have you heard anything like that?

Well, I'm still a member of Congress, so I can't really comment too much on what Matt said. Uh, but I will say this: wait, seriously, are you being serious, or is that tough? Being 100% serious. I've been 100% serious. I've been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is.

And I'll just tell you this: if they would release. The things that I've seen. You would stay up you you'd be up at night worrying about or thinking about this stuff We just need to disclose it all. I'm sick of it. You're...

Well, I was briefed. I'll just tell you this. I was briefed last week on an issue, or excuse me, two weeks ago. And um It would have set the earth off. This country would have come unglued, I think, if they would have heard all that I heard.

They would demand answers. And they need to. But, you know, it's never going to get, unfortunately. It just keeps getting covered up and covered up, and the people that know are dying or disappearing, as the case may be. And for the record, I'm not suicidal, and I don't take risks.

I'm glad you said that. I'm speechless, Congressman. You should be. You should be. And I told the president, release it all.

And the problem is, the people that are around the president don't know the and the president doesn't know the questions to ask. A few of us are going to have to get with the president and tell him what he needs to ask and where he needs to look. I mean, you know, we're. We're in meetings and they give addresses and tell locations of items, I'll just say. And um The public has a right to know, Doug Gummin, it's your tax dollars.

Absolutely. You got my attention, Congressman. I appreciate you being as forthcoming as you have been tonight, and we look forward to having you back. Look, I know Donald Trump wants to disclose something. He hasn't done it yet, but I think he wants to be the President to do that.

Okay. Yeah. You hear things like that coming from members of Congress, and we know Congressman Tim Burchett. He's a good guy. He's a.

Straight shooter Dad Gummett, as he is oft to say.

So, what in the world is going on here?

Now, I think there is a spiritual component to all of this, and that's why I want to bring in our next guest. He is the pastor of Lancaster Baptist Church and the president of West Coast Baptist College in California, Dr. Paul Chappell. Dr. Chapel, good to have you with us today.

Well, thank you and happy resurrection week. It's kind of amazing the topics you get pulled into during such a sacred and holy week. And so let's remember, first of all, that when those ladies came to the empty tomb, they heard the angel say, why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here. He is risen, as he said.

And I'm thankful that whatever's going on in the world, I know that I serve a risen Savior and my hope is found in him. Today. And I want to talk about Good Friday and Easter Sunday in just a moment, but I think there are a lot of people around the country that are genuinely concerned or puzzled by some of the comments coming out of Washington. Other members of Congress today are now saying we need to release whatever information we have on these so-called aliens. And that does lead to a spiritual question.

Does the Bible address this particular topic in the scriptures?

Well, of course, I'm a creationist, and I believe that God literally created this world. And I find the record for that in the book of Genesis, and there is no reference to alien beings in that sense of the word when we think about alienation. what the scriptures speak of, and we hear people speak about sentient life or other life that has a conscience or feelings and so forth. The capstone of God's creation is the human being. And we do not find other references.

I do believe you can perhaps be referring to demonic presence or influence. You may be referring to technological type of presence. But to see anything scripturally that would speak about alien life is not going to come from the Bible. How should Christians be responding to these kinds of reports and stories?

Well, you know, I think about Congressman Burchett. There's 300 Baptist churches in the city of Knoxville, where he's from. And I think that you've got to get a. get a Bible and and stick with the revealed word. One of the passages that helps me is: God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.

And so I want to stay confident in the fact that this is a fallen world, that God has stated, that He sent His Son Jesus. To cover the sins of this fallen world, but that as human beings, we know that sin brought a wage into this world, and God has placed judgment by one man, sin entered into the world. And so this is a judged and a fallen world, but there's nothing mentioned about. Of that. Judgment coming upon other than the ground of this earth and the creation of this earth.

So I don't see anything in the scripture related to judgment on other creatures or even the creation of such creatures. And so I'm not going to worry about that, which is not revealed to me by God. I think I like the way you're tackling this one. That's good. I know some of our staff were like, Todd, we can't sleep at night.

No, no, no. That's why we want Dr. Chappell to come on so our staff here at the show can sleep well at night.

So I think you've calmed some nerves here, Dr. Chappell.

Well, you know, when you think about. What we do know in the sense of World affairs. We know that there's crime and we know that there's difficulty as the result of sin. And if the Congressman has something outside of the realm of what we know from Scripture, Uh In the sense of something that's worrying him, again, that does not necessarily indicate that it is. Another form of life.

Equivalent to human life. I mean, is there some radio frequency? Is there some fallen angel demonic activity? The scripture speaks about that in particular with Lucifer and the fallen angels. But I don't know that I would encourage anyone to lose sleep over this report.

There could be mad scientists doing all kinds of weird things. And certainly we've lost sleep about everything from COVID to every other kind of a medical emergency. But in this case, until they reveal it, go ahead and sleep soundly. And when they do reveal it, test it by the scriptures and find hope. Dr.

Chapel, I want to ask you about something that happened at the White House yesterday. Of course, President Trump hosting faith leaders for a luncheon, and the President truly a man who understands the importance of Christianity when it comes to celebrating America's 250th anniversary. And there was something that was said. It's generating a lot of headlines, and I was just curious to hear your thoughts on it. This is Paula White.

She is one of the president's top spiritual advisors. And here's what she had to say from the podium yesterday. And Mr. President, no one has paid the price. Like you have paid the price.

It almost cost you your life. You were betrayed. And arrested. and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern.

that our Lord and Saviour showed us. But it didn't end there for him. And it didn't end there for you. God always had a plan. On the third day, He rose, and He defeated evil.

He conquered death, hell and the grave. And because he rose, we all know that we can rise. Dr. Chapel, some people are saying she was comparing President Trump to Christ. How do you square that?

What do you see there?

Well, as a Baptist, I believe that our final authority is the Scripture. And I love Hebrews 4.15, which simply says, For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities. But was in all points tempted like as we are. Yet without sin, Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace that that we may obtain mercy and find help in our time of need.

Now With that passage in mind, Every believer Can come to the Lord Jesus, our high priest. And can seek his help. and can seek his counsel and guidance knowing That while he was on this earth, He went through trials and temptations. He took the form of a man. He suffered pain.

He suffered the loss of loved ones, such as Lazarus, and many other illustrations.

So, in that context, Can we look at our human suffering and say that Jesus understands? Absolutely, yes. I don't care what anyone is experiencing today, listening, or watching this program. Uh Jesus Christ is a high priest that can be touched with the feeling of our infirmities. I think in this case uh the close parallel uh in in the personal moment something that probably could have been said to the President in the form of a comfort.

Uh is uh probably being taken as Somewhat deifying him. And I'm not going to question the motive of the person saying that. I would just say probably the timing was not well chosen in that sense, because instantly detractors are going to say, no matter who makes the parallel, that she was saying that he is God-like. And I do not believe that Any of us can claim that. We're all a fallen race, all fallen people, we're all sinners who need a savior.

And even President Trump retweeted. uh Franklin Graham's letter to him. From a few weeks ago, which very clearly stated that all men must turn to Christ to be saved.

So, in short, there's a great principle that I'm not ever going to give up on because Jesus understands, and he went through sorrow, suffering, death, and the grave, and he resurrected. All of that is true.

However, we've got to be careful positioning any man as if he's at that level.

Well said. And Dr. Chappell, I'm afraid we're going to have to leave it there, but wise words. And we certainly wish you and the great church, Lancaster Baptist Church, a happy Easter. Thank you, Dr.

Chappell.

You, same view, Todd. All right, don't forget five o'clock Eastern tonight on Newsmax, and we're going to have the very latest on the firing of Pam Bonge, and there's. A lot of celebration on both sides of the aisle. And what makes this hard is that Pam Bondi is a good and decent person. The question is, was she really qualified for the job that she was assigned?

And I'll just ask this question. Was the administration pushing back? For example, on the Epstein files, that was a complete disaster. Going all the way back to the day they invited the social media influencers and gave them the big binders that turned out to be big nothing burgers?

So that was, it's been a disaster from day one. And I think there's been an impression, whether right or wrong. That Pambondi and many of the others in the administration are more interested in auditioning for jobs at Fox News Channel. And that's not the point of the administration. The point of the administration is to get in there and work your butt off, do your job.

And if you do your job, if you follow through with the President's agenda, then there's going to be a reward for you after your time in office has concluded. But unfortunately, it certainly appeared that Pam Bandi and many others, many others, We're more interested in time on TV than actually doing their job. And that is. It's unfortunate, and it did not have to be that way, but that's well, unfortunately, that's how things turned out for P.M. Bondi.

And I think somebody like Ali Zeldon, who is a workhorse, is the kind of person. We need in there. By the way, going back to um I want to share this with you from Laura Loomer. Vice President J.D. Vance just confirmed the Trump administration is investigating Ilhan Omar for immigration fraud.

Well, here is the issue with that. Laura Loomer exposed that story eight years ago. And I want to read because, I mean, she's absolutely right. And many people have different opinions about Laura Loomer. You either like her, you don't like her.

I like her. I like her because she's a fierce defender of the President, and also all the information she has turns out to be absolutely correct. But go back eight years ago and Laura Loomer was smeared, deplatformed, and blacklisted, By even Republicans for warning the American people about the dangerous rise of Islamic candidates like Omar Rashida Tlaib. And Abdul El Si Syed. She says, while it's a relief to see these Jihadist infiltrators finally face real scrutiny, the government should have acted on my APPO research during the first Trump term before these frauds could inflict so much damage on our country.

All of my original receipts and undercover investigations are still available for free on my YouTube channel. It is pastime to hold these pro-Jihan politicians accountable. Why does it take so long for information like this to be acted on? I am very frustrated these Muslims have not been banned from running for office in America. I warned you all eight years ago, and she did.

She did. And by the way, just want to throw this out there. Again, this is J.D. Vance two times now going on platforms and saying that El Han Omar is under investigation. No, why has she not been charged?

That's not good enough. And I'm tired of people. Hopping on these shows and announcing that, well, charges are imminent, and then you know, eight, ten, fifteen years later, we're still waiting for charges. I remember when I was at Fox News channel, this is back in 2016, 2017, 2018. We had members of Congress coming on my show, and they're like stars.

All of the breadcrumbs lead to Barack Obama. He's the guy that tried to take down Donald Trump. He's the guy that signed off on the plan to thwart, sabotage the campaign. And here we are. Years later, nobody ever got charged.

They did all these investigations that cost millions of dollars, just millions. And all we're saying is: okay, great. If you have done the investigative work and there is evidence of wrongdoing, then hold these people accountable. Otherwise, Just be quiet. And stop wasting our money on these investigations that lead nowhere.

I mean, and it is true that there may be some things that are absolutely heinous and offensive and gross. and disgusting, but the reality is those things may not rise to the level of a crime, and that's okay too, but we've we don't need to be spending all of our tax money on this stuff that leads to nowhere is what I'm getting at.

So. All right. Wow. That's a lot going on today. And.

I would say this: say a prayer for Pam Bondi. She's a good, decent person. This has got to be hard. Nobody likes to be fired. And, you know, it is what it is.

But President Trump says that she's still a great person. You know, he put out a nice little statement. You know, thanking Pam. By the way, she is going into the private sector. They didn't say what that was.

I would not be, my money is on a Fox News gig. That's where my if if I'm a betting man, that's where I'm going. We'll do a six pack of Doctor Pepper, Dullin. All right, folks, it's been a great day. We've got to get out of here.
