Visit LegacyPM Investments dot com. That's legacy PMInestments.com. Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's common sense conservative commentary from Todd Starr Satson. That's right. I love this American.

Well, hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Sterns Radio Program. And, ladies and gentlemen, wow, what a mess. What a mess. Did you watch?

Did you watch that? That press conference last night. We've got some inside intel that I'm going to share with you, but. I want you to. I was trying to figure out a way last night.

I'm thinking all of this through and. How do we put all of this into perspective?

Now, many of you may remember the presidency of George H.W. Bush and one Dan Quayle. And the people who are out there saying that Joe Biden is a man of sound mind and body are the same people who said Dan Quayle was not qualified to be president of the United States because he could not spell the word potato.

So I just we I want this we we have to put all this into perspective. And the fact of the matter is, ladies and gentlemen, we have a senile old man Who drools into his porridge as the leader of the free world? I mean, it really is that simple. And it's not a surprise. What you saw last night.

And understand this. I know people are praising the media. Finally, the media is waking up. No, the media is not waking up, they've been woke all along. What happened last night was a professional political hit job.

That's what happened last night.

Now, there have been some rumblings behind the scene that Joe Biden was actually ready to throw in the towel. And by the way, that's why the press conference was delayed. It was supposed to be, what, at 7:45? And it was about 20, 30 minutes after that, that Biden was. Was uh able to get out there and address the nation.

But a lot of people thought, and there was a lot of speculation, that Biden was throwing in the towel. But you need to understand there are powerful forces at work here. And. Mrs. Biden, Doctor Mrs.

First Lady Jill Biden. Plays a very significant role in that White House. Going back, if you're going back into history, remember Woodrow Wilson back in the day. When he had a he suffered a stroke, and for the better part of his presidency, it was the missus who was actually running the White House. and the same thing is happening here to some extent.

So keep in mind that misses Doctor First Lady Jill Biden, she is the one who wants the power. She craves the attention. She wants the servants. She gets off on all of that stuff. And the husb and and look You have to go back and understand their relationship, right?

I mean she You can use the term homewrecker if you want, but the relationship. The relationship and how it all started between Joe Biden and Jill. Is not a happy Hallmark movie. It's more of a. Lifetime Valentine's Day movie.

There's some really it's really creepy So, the whole family's been messed up for a very long time, and all you have to do is read through Ashley Biden's diaries, and you get a pretty good sense of that. I mean, just ask yourself, just sit back and You're eating your lunch right now, and you're about to take a sip of delicious Milo sweet tea. and ask yourself the following question. Do you know anybody in the immediate family? That would take a shower.

With their daughter. Do you know anybody like that?

So it's a creepy family. All right. It's just they're just weird people. And they're mean. But I'm telling you, there's something in Washington, D.C.

that's a whole heck of a lot meaner, and that is. The Deep State So let me explain what happened last night. There have been talks behind the scenes for quite some time now. Urging Joe to step aside. To let somebody else step in.

Who that person is is up for speculation. A lot of people think it's going to be and thought it was going to be Gavin Newsom. If that's the case, I don't think Newsom is the presidential contender. I don't think he's, and I don't believe he's going to be the choice of the Democrats for reasons I put out before. Number one, he's a white guy.

Number two, he's straight, he's heterosexual. Number three, he's a wealthy man. Number four, he's white. No, I know I mentioned that, Dylan, already. Thank you.

But that's huge. He's a white guy. Oh, and he is a citizen of America, by the way.

So, those are factors that work against him. Oh, he also knows his pronouns. That's another huge blow.

So that's why I believe it is going to be Michelle Obama. And I think it almost has to be. And I wouldn't be surprised, and hear me on this. I know this is going to sound outrageous, but just hear me on this. If the Democrats really wanted to get out the vote, They would have an Obama-Clinton ticket, all-female ticket.

D and C babes. That's seriously. I know it's a lot of polyester. I get it. It's a lot of pantsuits.

I know. I know. It's a lot of testosterone. I get it. But I I think that may be the winning ticket for the Democrats.

I'm telling you, it would energize the Democrat Party base. Will it get out the vote? I don't think so. I think Trump's got this. But I'm just telling you.

Don't be surprised. That's all I'm going to say about that. Don't be surprised. But what happened last night, and I want to get your thoughts on this, and it is also Open Line Friday, but for the first hour, I want us to focus on this. What's the play?

Biden stepped down, you get Kamala Harris. And let's get real for a second. He's more mentally competent than she is. And and quite frankly, The her behavior It does lead to the question. What did she have to do to get to where she is today?

Because I don't think it was on intellect. I'm just asking. I'm not no, no, no, no, no, I'm not going down that road. I said, what did she have to do, not who did she have to do? What did she have to do to get to where she wanted?

To be I'm just asking questions here. I'm not making any insinuations. I'm not hurling. Accusations. I'm just asking.

Because right now, you can have the, what was the little toy? When we were children, and it was the round toy, and it had the little pole thing on it, and it would go around and around, and it would land on the cow. This is a cow. A cow goes? Boo.

I don't think Kamala could make it through that. I I don't I don't think she's got the mental capacity. Yeah.

So again, our number 901-260-5926, that's 901-260-5926.

So here's what happened last night. There's been a lot of people trying to get Biden to step aside. and be a statesman. But Mrs. Biden doesn't want that to happen.

She's the one calling the shots here. at least within the immediacy of the family.

So they knew They knew that the special counsel was going to. hit Biden and hit Biden hard. And that's exactly what the special counsel did, putting out the statement. I mean, these are shocking allegations. I mean, we all know them to be true.

And we've all known this to be the case, but to actually see it in official writing, in an official court document, that we have a man of diminished capacity. in the Oval Office, it still it it takes your breath away. Right?

So, again, I just don't know. Why people seem to be shocked by what happened last night?

So for what it's worth. He would not go. And so now they're having to force him out. They were using Hunter, but even Hunter, I think, would have been a sacrificial lamb. He's the well, he's the black sheep of the family.

so they realized hunter's expendable. He's going to go off on another bender anyway.

So They were still trying to figure out how do we do this. And they figured out a pretty brutal way. I mean, this is brutal. To come in out there and just lay it all out there that the man can't even remember when his kid died. And we know that he can't even remember how his son died.

He thinks his son was like a World War II hero that died in Vietnam. is pathetic. And I know a lot of you out there. are are saying well You know, the reality is that it's all fake. Biden is not, he's not a mental case, he's just faking it all.

I don't think so. I don't think you can make up that level of incompetence. I really don't. If he was a Republican, okay, I could probably buy that argument. But not Biden.

So he has this press conference, and you know it was hastily arranged. And. You never want to send this guy out after dark because that's it. I mean, he is out. He can put in a couple of hours' work and then it's nap time.

Give him the pudding. And the guy comes out there, and you could tell right away he was like glued to the teleprompter. Then he steps away. And all you know what breaks loose. And he starts I'm just telling you, it was it was not good.

Kaylee McInenney from over at Fox, I think had an adequate description of what we saw on the T V screen last night. We just saw an unmitigated disaster play out before our very eyes. We just watched a wounded political animal hobble to a podium and react with defensiveness, with anger, And you know it's bad, Jesse. When you have the White House press corps, they are essentially an extension of the Joe Biden press and communications team. When they are shouting at him, asking repeatedly, Are you going to step aside, Mr.

President, the CNN correspondent asking that? When NBC, NBC of all places, writes a headline, a nightmare special counsel report triggers panic among Democrats. And when you have a president who for 45 minutes announces a press conference with no topic, giving the world 45 minutes to speculate, is he stepping aside? What would life be like under a President Kamala Harris? For 45 minutes, the nation got to feel that panic, and I don't think they will forget it come November.

Yeah, um I don't think they're going to be able to get to November. I really don't. I saw a President last night that was, it's over. It it's over. And so the point of last night was to take out the president.

That's all that was. The report came out, and it was interesting. I was watching CNN's coverage. Man, what a terrible network. All those people.

Oh, my. Anyway, I'm watching CNN. And they're saying, well, the worst thing that Biden could do is come out there and be angry. You know, if he comes out there and he's angry, then he's going to be over for him. Cut number seven.

I know there's some attention paid to some language in the report about my recollection of events. There's even reference that I don't remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that? Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, wasn't any of their damn business. Uh Let me tell you something.

Some of you have commented, I wear since the day he died, every single day, the rosary he got from our lady of. Every Memorial Day, we hold a service remembering him and tending to our friends and family and the people who loved him. He forgot the name of the rosary. Our Lady of what? What is he talking about there?

Turns around, he somehow seems to think that Mexico shares a border with Gaza. Got five. Conduct of the response. in Gaza in the Gaza Strip. has been um Over the top.

I think that uh As you know, Initially The President of Mexico, Ossisi. did not want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian material to get in. I talk to. I convinced him to open the gate. I talked to Bebe to open the gate on the Israeli side.

So I'm watching CNN respond to this, and they've got Jeffrey Toobin, CNN's master to pater, and he's out there and he's saying: Mexico, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico. Mexico? What? It's I I I believe I'm Heart, I'm agreeing with Toobin. I'm like, yes.

Just keep your hands on the table, sir. Just keep your hands on the table. Thank you. So I'm d I'm telling you that last night was a hit job. It was kind of like a godfather taking out the other godfathers.

So you say, okay, well. Who's running the show? Who's really behind all of this? Ladies and gentlemen, we went back into the Todd Stearns. Radio show Time machine.

and we did a deep dive into our audio vault. And we came up with some audio from the year of our Lord twenty twenty. Barack Hussein Obama sitting down with Stephen Colbert. And here's how that went down. People would ask me.

Knowing what you know now, do you wish like you had a sec uh a third term? Um And I I used to say You know what? If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man or front woman, and they had an earpiece in, and I was just in my basement in my sweats, looking through the stuff, and then I could sort of deliver the lines, but somebody else was uh doing all the talking and ceremony. I I'd be fine with There you go, ladies and gentlemen. That's the man behind the puppet.

That's the man who has his hands up Joseph Robinette Biden's backside. He's the guy calling the shots, Barack Obama.

So the question now, ladies and gentlemen, very simple. Does Biden stay or does Biden go? 901-260-5926. This is the Todd Starden Show. From the New York Times bestling author Eric Metaxas comes a riveting new film, Letter to the American Church.

The film explores the parallels between 1930s, Nazi Germany, Mao, and Stalin regimes, and the infiltration of cultural Marxism in America today. The church's decision to stay out of politics undermines the very message of the gospel and its power to transform human existence. Metaxas issues an urgent call to the church, stay silent and abandon its mission of proclaiming liberty or stand up to the forces of evil. Join Eric and several leading voices of today as they explain how America and the church are at the precipice of destruction and need to wake up and take action.

Now they're fact-checking Biden last night. You gotta kind of love it. I mean, there is some sort of like, you know, great irony here. But it's over for Biden. I don't know if Biden knows it's over.

All right, welcome back to the Touch Stars Radio Program. Great to have you with us. By the way, coming up on my Newsmax show later this afternoon, we're going to be talking to our good buddy Mark Cox over in St.

Louis at 971 FM Talk and Andy Hoosier from KQAM, the big talker there in Wichita. I want to go right now to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. She is the host of The Right View, and she's just an awesome person and great American, Laura Trump. Laura, good to have you back with us.

Well, good afternoon. Great to be with you. Wow.

So little to talk about today, Laura. We don't have anything to say, Todd. Wow.

Oh, my gosh. First of all, congratulations to President Trump. My understanding is to set yet another record for Nevada caucus votes. It was a huge night for the President in Vegas and across Nevada. Yeah, a huge night.

I think the signs are all very clear, and they point to the fact that the American people, Todd, are ready. For Donald Trump back in the White House. Look, whether you look at the caucus last night or, quite frankly, the primary that was held on Tuesday, the meaningless primary because you didn't get any delegates from it. Yet, Nikki Haley still couldn't even win that primary with literally no one running against her. I think it's obvious.

Donald Trump is the Republican nominee. You saw yesterday very clearly. Nevada demonstrated that. The U.S. Virgin Islands demonstrated that.

We need to focus right now on coming together as a party and ensuring that we beat the Democrats, whoever it is they run, Todd, because at this point, I think we all look at Joe Biden and we say there's no way they could actually run this guy. We got to beat these people on November 5th because we need to get our country back in order, and we know that's the only way to do it. There's no possible way. And I want to get to that presser in just a minute, but also the Supreme Court, certainly based on the questions, and I was really intrigued by Elena Kagan's line of questioning. And it just seems to me that the president is about to get a very big victory from the Supreme Court over this Colorado ballot case as well.

Yeah, well, I certainly hope so because listen, the only way that we actually have a democracy, and you know, the Democrats love to talk about the fact that our democracy is in peril.

Well, it sure is if you ask them to lead the way, because you've seen that whether it's Colorado or Maine or several other states, by the way, across the country, attempting to thwart the will of the people and just fully take Donald Trump off. Off the ballot, but I think you're right. Yesterday, his team was really well prepared. And obviously, the argument is very clear to anyone who has paid attention. There is no basis by which he should ever be taken off a ballot.

Of course, Colorado is arguing that he incited an insurrection, which he did not do. That has never actually been proven or charged. And I think the American people know exactly the nonsense that went on there. But yeah, his team was very well spoken and I think argued his case very well. We never say never with Donald Trump because we know they'll throw everything his way.

So it feels very good. Let's see if the Supreme Court of the United States does the right thing, Todd, and actually rules in favor of keeping him on the ballot. And again, folks, this is not going to be a situation where we have to wait until June or, you know, for the case to come out. No, they're going to expedite this, so we will know very soon.

Meanwhile, Laura, what did you make of last night's press conference? This thing came together very, very Very quickly, Press Corps was caught completely off guard. What do you make of how all of this went down last night?

Well, I mean, I think pretty clearly, you have Joe Biden utilizing his position as President of the United States to attack his. Political opponent. That was goal number one. I guess goal number two was in some way to ensure that the American people felt great about Joe Biden as president. And oh no, I'm doing great, folks.

Nothing to see here. But let me throw in some commentary on Mexico while I'm talking about Israel and Palestine. Honestly, one of the most disastrous press conferences I think Joe Biden's ever had. And that bar is very, very high for Joe Biden. Like this guy, it's constantly just embarrassment after embarrassment.

And then to see the press constantly shouting out questions about his mental fitness. I think it's pretty clear to at least me, Todd, this seems to be the beginning of the end of Joe Biden. Look, if anybody's paid close attention, there has been a turn within the way that Joe Biden is presented and the way the media talks about him. And now it seems like they have started to turn on him. And I think a lot of people say, hmm, that's very interesting.

Are they going to turn so much that Joe Biden ultimately cannot be the Democrats' nominee for president as we head toward November 5th? It seems to be the beginning of that happening, the beginning of the end for Joe Biden. I don't know. It's a little suspect when all of a sudden some guy who campaigned out of his basement, who they lauded and thought was the greatest thing since sliced bread, is suddenly the same guy and in as bad a shape as he previously was. But now all of a sudden they're talking about it.

It kind of makes you go, hmm.

Well, let's just take Biden at face value. He says, no, I'm fully competent. I have control of my mental faculties.

Okay, if that's the case, then he should be charged because the only reason they're not charging him is because of his age and his diminished capacity. But if Biden's out there saying, no, I know everything.

Okay, fine. Then you've got to pay the price here. But they're not going to do that. And I thought it was interesting because, Laura, they had the goods on it one way or the other. And I think this was an effort by the deep state last night to take out Joe Biden.

It looked like a hit job to me last night. Absolutely. And you're right. Look, don't forget that Joe Biden was vice president. whenever he took these classified documents He was not president of the United States.

Only presidents are actually allowed to take classified documents. They have the ability to classify or declassify anything. As vice president, he did not have that right. And so, for them to just say, wait a minute, never mind, this guy didn't have full mental faculties about him enough to know right from left or up or down. He shouldn't be charged.

Excuse me. Absolutely, he should. If he says, as you just commented, Todd, that he had full control of his mental acuity and all of that sort of thing, he's good to go. then he should be charged. And rightly so.

And then I assume that they'll char there they'll drop all the charges against Donald Trump if this is the case. If this is the bar that we're setting, this is the standard. I'm holding my breath for them to drop the case against Donald Trump. It's absolutely ridiculous. But you're right.

This was the attempt to start to take out Joe Biden by the deep state. It is really clear if you have been watching the way they have dealt with Joe Biden. From the very beginning, things have changed, things have taken a turn, and they're going to try to run someone else. As president on the Democrat side. It's very interesting because the DNC very recently changed a rule that says people do not have to vote on who their nominee for president is.

The members of the DNC get to just choose anybody they could choose. Todd Starnes, and Todd, I know you'd do it and take one for the team and then turn the reins over to Donald Trump. But no, truly, the fact that they have changed that rule. It tells you, I think, all you need to know. There's some plan afoot.

They've kind of started to turn on Joe Biden. And watch out, ladies and gentlemen. Pay very close attention about what's going down. And for the record, I'm all in for Trump. Just for the record, you know, Media Matters, they love to listen to this program, Laura.

And you know how they are. They do. Laura Trump and Torces Starnes for President. Wait, what? What?

I don't want to get that call from Ar-a-Laga. But, you know, it's going back to what happened last night. There's no way, no way this guy could run. And even CNN, they were losing their minds last night over all of this. Who do you think it's going to be?

You think Michelle Obama? I mean, the convention's going to be in Chicago, her hometown. I mean, if the shoe fits, you know, clearly Gavin Newsom has been vying for this position. He rolled out the red carpet for a communist dictator, cleaned up the streets of San Francisco, shows you they actually can do it. When Xi Jinping flew over from China to meet with him, He's been trying to make himself look very presidential.

But I do think I I mean, to me, if Michelle Obama gave them the nod and said, I'll do it, that is their that's their lady. They're gonna run with her, they're gonna go hard with Michelle, because I think they're banking on the fact that her general likability rating and her general approval rating with people is relatively high. The problem Michelle Obama will have is that she has never held any sort of position whatsoever ever in her life that I'm aware.

So you go, you contrast somebody who's actually done the job and, by the way, done it incredibly well. Donald Trump got more done in four years for the United States than most presidents could ever dream of doing in two full terms in office. If it does happen to be Michelle Obama, but those are the two, I think those are the two everyone's watching. Is it Gavin Newsome or is it Michelle Obama? They don't have a deep bench.

On the Democrat side, and they have a big problem with that. The good news is, over on the Republican side, we certainly do. We had a great plate of people running for president on the Republican side. It will obviously ultimately be Donald Trump. And then he's got a choice to make for his running mate.

And we've got a lot of great people that he can choose from.

So we're in great shape over here. And I think no matter who it is, I think the American people remember the good old days with Donald Trump and they're going to vote for him. No doubt about that. And the only reason I discount Gavin Newsom is that he's a straight, rich, white, heterosexual guy. Oh, I think straight and heterosexual.

Yeah, poison to the Democrats. Yeah, that's right. They'd rather be poison than vote for somebody like that. All right. Laura, what's coming up on the podcast?

Well, we just had yesterday, we had Vivek Ramaswamy on. Great talk with him. Everybody should check it out. You know, for a guy who came out of nowhere and was really an unknown, he did very well in the presidential race. He has now endorsed Donald Trump.

He is on Team Trump all the way to November 5th. He had a lot of interesting ideas, Todd, about exactly what we're talking about and what's happening, what the deep state is doing. And then, you know, we always are talking about the latest going on in America. News is moving quickly. You never can keep too informed on things, and we've got to keep our eye on the prize.

So it's therightview.com. Come check us out and join us for some great conversations. All right. The great Laura Trump, the favorite daughter of North Carolina.

So Laura, always good hearing from you. Thanks, Todd. You're the best. All right, take care. There you go, folks.

Lara Trump. By the way, we had that audio from Vivek Ramoswamy, cut number 12. Very bad day for President Biden. What do you think? Look, I think the number one takeaway trace is this.

Joe Biden will not be the nominee. I said this last year. People dismissed it as some type of conspiracy theory. Today, I think it became that much more obvious. Play this out.

Biden's own DOJ and special counsel is effectively releasing a report that undermines the case for him to actually be a candidate for the U.S. presidency right as Biden's poll numbers are cratering. We have to do the math, skate to where the puck is going, not fall for the deflection. But I do think what they're planning for is to sideline Biden as the nominee. Trot in a different puppet instead.

That's the most significant takeaway from tonight. There you go. Straight from Vivek Ramboswami. We've been saying this for a long time. All right, we're going to take a break going right to the phones.

We'll be right back. Cable news, noisy, boring, out of touch. That's why Salem News Channel is different. We keep you in the know. Streaming 24-7 for free.

All right, let's go to the phones. We're going to start our day in beautiful North Georgia. Ann is listening to us on WDUN. Hi, Ann. What's on your mind?

Um Marcel Obama. We don't need Michelle Obama ever even to run for president. He said a while back. that she had never liked the United States Till we put Obama, her husband, in as president. Today used to march against the United States when they were in college.

And we sure don't need her or Hillary Clinton.

Well, Ann, I hear you. The Democrats, though, they know that Michelle Obama can generate excitement. She can rev up the base. And quite frankly, when it comes to identity politics, she checks off at least one. Possibly two boxes.

Depending on who you believe in them. In the Google sphere.

So, and yes, I hear you, but I still think that Donald Trump, it would be a tough fight, but I still believe Donald Trump comes out on top in that fight. And God bless you. Thank you for listening to us. Let's go to Jim in North Carolina, WSIC, our great station there. Hi, Jim.

Hey, Todd, how you doing? I'm well, thank you for asking. Good. I just thought of a horrible, horrible scenario That Could possibly happen. Like you're saying, Michelle Obama.

Uh gets nominated by the D and C. She has Harris as a vice president. They do their tricks and everything to get elected. Michelle Obama is now the president. She sets her cabinet up.

the way she wants it, the way Obama wants it. and get rid of all the Federal judges that are conservatives because it's just all they have to do is fire them. Put their mobile browsers in. Set everything up for about three months. And then she resigned.

Harris is president, and who knows who would be vice president?

Well, Jim, yeah, look, I hear you. I think it would be terrible. Even more horrifying than the federal judges, and that is a huge, huge deal, Jim. I think the the greater concern I would have is the military, because they would go in and clean out all of the rest of the conservative generals, military leaders and finish what Obama started by wiping out all of the patriotic all those patriots out there in the military. You're absolutely right, and they would probably be able to talk.

I can't think of her name, the Supreme Court Justice female. Which one? We got a few of them. Jackson? Who?

Jackson? No. The one that's Uh thinking about retiring.

Well, the females are Sotomayor. Yeah, I don't think she's going to be yeah, I don't think so. Not yet. She's not ready. Anyway, Jim, we got a skedaddle, but I appreciate your call.

Let's go to Scott in Arkansas, listening to us on KWAM. Hi, Scott. What's on your mind? Hey, Todd, it's good to talk to you again. Hey, I have a question since it's this the Friday, but it kind of goes along with this.

You remember when Trump was in office and John Kerry was doing all this behind the scenes p politicking? And there was a there's a there's something that you can go after someone when they do that. It's an act of the Logan Act.

Okay, how come that the Senate or the Dem the Democrats won't? How come they can't bring some kind of charges or do some kind of investigation to Obama? We've known he's been doing this for three years, Todd. How come they can't stop? Start investigating it.

Scott, they can't even. Scott, they can't even impeach Alejandro Mayorkas. You think they're going to go after Obama?

Well, they got to do something because we know he's doing it. If his wife gets in there, that's just another extension of what he's doing now. Yeah.

Well Maybe she's been wearing the pants in the family all along. Maybe she's been the one calling the shots.

Well, it's very possible, but I can tell you right now, she does fit the boxes. Whether or not she wants to do it, Todd. That's another story altogether, and I'll leave it at that. Yeah, no, and that's a fair point. I mean, she has to, she likes her privacy.

So she would have to give up all of that, and she doesn't have to do anything, right? They're getting hundreds of millions of dollars. They're incredibly wealthy. Just incredible, the amount of wealth that they have accumulated. doing nothing.

And that does make you wonder as well. Scott, appreciate that call. But look, it's a good thought. But unfortunately, with the Congress we have, folks, we saw what happened when they tried to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas. I mean, it's Not going to, yeah, it's not going to happen.

Oh, by the way, did you see who was at the Trump Vegas victory party last night? None other than Kevin McCarthy. A lot of people wonder he was kind of hanging out of the bag.

So I don't, was he hitting the casinos? Was he there just a little vacay? And uh snuck in, we don't know. But Kevin McCarthy was there. That's interesting.

And by the way, that's a whole other story we've got to get to. Is Ronna McDaniel, is she staying or is she going? All right, hang tight, everybody. It is open line Friday. We're getting to your calls: 901-260-5926.

All right, let's go to the phone lines here. Again, our telephone number, it is open line Friday, by the way. Our telephone number is 901-260-5926. Jack in Midtown Memphis, listening to us on KWAM. Hi, Jack.

What's on your mind? Thank you for taking my call, Toshan. And I want to let you know, if you already know, this time around, more black people are voting for Trump. Then any of them, they really are. I I wonder do you know that?

Why is that, Jack? Why is it that more blacks are voting for Trump this go-around?

Well, they see old Joe's messing up, especially at the border. been coming across the border and Poor Joe is is is uh have some problems upstairs, I think, Todd. I listened to his speech last night, or the night before that. And the man just ain't there, Carl. He just ain't there.

And do you know ah? A few days ago, I looked at the T V, and Chinese people are coming across that border, too. I think what they need to do with that barbed wire. they're squeezing through some parts of that thing, and I think they need to put a little shock in it, from battery wise. Yeah, Jack, I'm with you.

I am concerned about the number of Chinese that are coming over, and my understanding is it is a very dangerous situation with those Chinese. But I look, I'm encouraged by Donald Trump, and I do believe that we are going to see. A massive victory. And I think a lot of blacks and a lot of Hispanics are going to be coming out and voting for Trump. only because of how terribly they've been treated by the the Democrats.

Enough. Let me tell you something else. We have our own criminals here, both black and white. And then just have more come across the border. That's just two words, Man.

We've got our own criminals here. Try to deal with. By the way, Jack, I just got a text message, so I don't know if you're driving around today, but be careful, folks. I just got a note from our good friend Ben Dieter, the morning show host at KWAM. He said there are 20 different Tennessee state troopers patrolling the highways, and they are pulling everybody over.

They are like dozens of cars being pulled over right now. This is what we call a crackdown on the criminals.

So I say good for them. Jack, got a run, my friend. God bless you. It's great to hear from you again. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line, good friend of this program.

Great American patriot Robin Poffman. Hey, Robin, how are you today? Hey, Todd, how are you? I don't even know where to begin after last night. Wow, Robin, that was a hit job, a political hit job.

It was absolutely a political hitchhob, and here's why. Do you know that the Department of Justice Couldn't have taken a black Sharpie, a black magic marker. and crossed out all of the um every single, you know, little ism about Biden not knowing his the dates that his son died. et cetera, et cetera, all the line items, that could have been all blacked out, Todd.

So I agree with you completely that it was a political hit job. But I was watching this last night, sitting on the couch and thinking to myself, Wow, is this guy going to resign? Is he going to say, hey, I'm no longer the president? Then I thought, okay, well, maybe it's the announcement of you know, I'm not running again, but he came out there, he was so arrogant. And so juiced up and so what I would describe as Alzheimer's angry.

Um Sadly, there are folks that do get dementia and Alzheimer's. That gets this angry streak, and you really see it. Again, I'm not a doctor, but I am an observer of human nature, and to me, he has full-blown. dementia and Alzheimer's. Yeah, the other takeaway from last night is, you know, Jill's not letting that guy out of her sight, right?

She's been with him on the stage for weeks now, holding his hand, guiding him off. And so whoever decided that Biden was going to call this immediate press conference, and everybody was caught off guard. I mean, the CNN anchors were literally running to their positions at the White House, Robin. And that tells me that something was up, and maybe they called Jill ahead of time and said, hey, Jill, we need you over here in the East Wing. And they locked her in a room so they couldn't get to the husband because there's no way she would have allowed him out there to do what he did last night.

Well, there's two things, you know, and I have not been listening to your show today, so if I'm being repetitive, I apologize in advance. The president was in Leesburg, Virginia, earlier in the day, and he had already reacted to the report. And I thought it was an interesting reaction, and I kind of cut up the sound bites and was tuned in and focused on it. But to me, they had him hopped up on the B-12 shot or whatever other medication, and he was all, you know, hopped up and caffeined up and ready to do whatever. But, you know, Jill is an enabler.

As a wife, she is an enabler. A good wife, someone or, you know, someone who loves their partner, does not allow their partner, married or not, or even a friend, to go out there and be embarrassed like that. When someone has dementia, you just keep Them on the sideline, you keep them in a quiet environment, you don't gin them up to go out there and get all angry. He's very easily triggered. And I would say this, I thought that it did more harm than good.

And I get why they did it, but let me tell you something, Todd. When he walked away, when he walked off the stage and then walked back to answer the Middle East question I thought to myself, OMG, this is going to go south in a hurry. This is going to be a ball of yarn. down the stairs. This is a snowball going off the cliff.

And sure enough, you know, the Yasisi thing, I was like, a CC? He's the the president of Egypt, not Mexico. I mean, this is just you know, in our world, Todd, you know, we know who the presidents are of the countries, right? And the ones we don't know, we look up. But that's an easy one because it's been in the news so much.

And then the the also what was not lost on me was when he was talking about the rosary beads. I don't know if anyone's mentioned this on your show, but he's like, Yeah, I wear the beads on my on my wrist or whatever from my son from Lady of Our and he can't told me of the the church. Couldn't write it. He can't pull the name of the church. or the date or the years that his son passed away.

When you love someone, Todd, you never forget the date that they died and left you. Robin Poffman on our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. Robin, I'm with you 1,000%. I thought. That he was coming out.

I thought tomorrow or last night was it. I thought he was going to pull the plug. But it just seems to me that whatever they've been trying to do behind the scenes has not registered, or maybe Jill doesn't want it to register.

So they're having to play hardball because that document last night was damning. They said he willfully, willfully harbored classified and top-secret documents, but they're not going to prosecute the guy because he's got Alzheimer's or he's feeble-minded or whatever. I mean, it was a lose-lose for Biden last night. Yeah, I mean, this was right out of the Hillary Clinton Comey playbook, where I remember Comey back in the day standing up there and saying, yeah, Hillary Clinton did this and 33,000 emails and hammers to the Blackberries in the cell phones. And oh, by the way, we're not charging her.

So this was straight. America Garland took a page right out of the Comey playbook and said, okay, you're guilty of one to ten, but we're not charging you because you're an old sympathetic man with Alzheimer's disease. I thought it was outrageous. But the whole thing is about uh being teed up To get him off the stage. The Democrats know it's a losing proposition.

He's not well, this man. He has no business being the President. And we're in grave danger as a country with a wide open borders. Can you imagine if the border czar Kamala Harris becomes President of the United States, and what our enemies are going to do, and what they're thinking seeing this report. It it it scares me to death.

It's you know, Robin, and there's some reporting out there that they've had this report for a while. And they knew exactly what was in there, and they still let this man go out and face the cameras. Again, this goes back to who made that decision. And Robin, I think the answer to that question is Barack Obama. I'm curious to hear from you, though, if it's not going to be Biden, which it's not.

We know it's not going to be Kambala. Do you think it is going to be Michelle Obama as the nominee? No, I don't. I still I'm still uh my bet in Vegas is still on Gavin Newsome. Really?

Because of his yeah, because of his age. I just think he's got that Bill Clinton slick willy thing going on. I think that a lot of people who are not in the know, like who don't travel as much as you do and I do and have not been to California recently and don't really know what's going on there and don't know the issues and how he's ruined the state of California, I think they're going to see him as a Barack Obama kind of figure, young and hip. And I think that they're going to go for young and hip. And I don't think that Michelle Obama wants to leave her vegetable garden or Martha's Vineyard.

That's just my opinion. I think uh that it all sounds good, but I have I do not think she wants to be President of the United States. in my opinion. All right. Hey, are are you going to watch the Super Bowl this weekend?

I um all of I was invited to a party. I will be drinking uh water with lemon. And I will be sober, and I'm happy to check in with you on Monday. What? Yeah.

All right. That's a little TMI. I mean, it's, you know, it's a Super Bowl. You can have a Baptist Martini. I don't think that's going to.

Well, I will just say one thing to you. I think that they should take Donald Trump up on his offer and that Donald Trump should do the sit-down. I think it would be just. Huge and tremendous. The reason I'm asking, Robin, is they've they've got tickets.

There there are still a few tickets available. The average price for a Super Bowl ticket, $8,600, Robin. Wow, that is way above what I get paid. I don't have that kind of coin. I don't have that kind of coin.

Dieter may. He may. Maybe he should take a plus one. Theater. Yeah, I think we should the three of us.

It would be a trifecta of genius, the three of us in Las Vegas. Can you imagine that? Oh, sweet lord. I don't know if Vegas is ready for that. All right, Robin.

Well, have fun at the party and uh we'll check back in with you next week. Anything can happen, Mr. Stardes. Anything can happen. It's true.

All right. Robin Poffman, everybody, covering that crazy press conference last night. You know, back to the Super Bowl tickets, $125,000. That's the high-end tickets. Does it come with like a hot dog?

I mean, do you get like an all-you-can-drink like. You know, like when you go to Wendy's and you know, have the drink machine and you get free refills. I it oh, what? What comes with the $125,000 price tag? That's what I want to know.

And at that point, would you rather just stay at home and And bank the one twenty-five. And, you know, order a pizza. Papa John's I'll take for that much money you can throw on that you know what you can splurge and do uh extra meats. Wow.

All right. Yeah, according to Ticket Smarter. There are 2,278 tickets remaining, and the price the current prices on the remaining tickets between $5,900 and $57,000. And Dieter just texted something about saying he doesn't have that money. No, he's a celebrity, though, Dylan.

You know, he's got that cash scroll. He doesn't spend anything, and he eats like a bean. Surprise he's not getting in for free. Oh, that's true. He'll he'll probably do the coin toss.

I wonder if the uh high price gets a front row seat of Taylor Swift. Oh, well, they had to, yeah, maybe they're paying people to come for that. All right, got to take a break here, folks. We'll be right back. Mm-hmm.

All right, welcome back to the show. They have your weapons. We've got a special treat from Paul Shankla coming up. You're going to want to stick around for that. Our telephone number, by the way, is 901-260-5926.

That's 901-260-5926. Open line Friday, and we're going to be taking your calls in just a few moments. I want to go back to the Super Bowl here for a second. And a lot of people are speculating that the ticket prices are so insane because of Taylor Swift. According to Ticketmaster, Seat Geek and StubHub, here's what we've got.

So a luxury suite at Allegiant Stadium. It's going to cost you $2.5 million. We're just one game, $2.5 billion. That's $125,000 per person, and here's what you get. You get 20 tickets.

you get two parking passes, Wait, that's it? Just two parking pats? You got 20 people coming. What are those supposed to do? Take a bus?

Then you get uh complimentary food and drinks.

Well, they're going to be like real food. I'm talking like a bucket of. A bucket of fried chicken or something, right? You don't want to have to you don't want to show up to the Super Bowl and eat like sushi. And drink those, what do they call them?

The health drinks, the liquefied lawn clippings. You know what I'm talking about. There's got to be some good, like, food, like ribs. And brought worst, right? Golly, unbelievable.

As of day before yesterday, tickets are still available. The average price of a ticket sold on StubHub is $8,600. Oh, so they're coming down because that ticket was $9,300 on Monday. Best seats, the best seats in that stadium, thirty thousand dollars or more. Wow.

I think I'm going to be very happy watching it on an airplane. We'll be right back, America. We now take you behind the scenes at the Biden White House. Let's listen in as Joe learns he's in the clear. And therefore, we decline to prosecute.

See, Joe, I told you the doddering old fart defense would work.

Now all I gotta do is get out of the race and let somebody if you don't vote for me. Th then you ain't black. You're all against me. Hey! I know what the hell I'm doing!

Under a press conference. Hey MAGA! Back of the Minorim! He's real president of Mexico! Right, you're quite.

Who gave him all the applesauce? That's more drugs than he took in college. You can't stop. I the President of the United States Threats energy is present. Where's my piece?

Wait a minute, Joe. Uh, that's part of the plan. Uh, you quit, and then we get somebody else, someone from the outside, some someone who can win. Mm-hmm. Oh, uh hey, Kamala!

Right. We gotta get somebody to run against Trump. Uh you! Give me Robert Kennedy. Ah, he's scared of cellphones, sir.

This is an emergency. Join us next time when we take you behind the scenes at the Obama, Biden, Kamala, whatever White House. All right. Well, thank you there, our ACE reporter in D.C., Paul Shanklin.

Well done for you for that exclusive clip here on the Tonsterns radio show. All right, let's go to the phone lines: 901-260-5926. Sharon is listening to us on WTKF in North Carolina. Hi, Sharon. What's on your mind?

Well, my husband missed it. But he needs to hear it. And that is the clip of Well Barack Obama. telling us how he would serve that third term. It's important that he hear this one.

All right, so this audio is going out for Joe in North Carolina.

Alrighty, here we go. Here we go. Knowing what you know now, do you wish like you had a sec uh a a third term? Um And I I used to say You know what? If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man or front woman, and they had an earpiece in, and I was just in my basement in my sweats, looking through the stuff, and then I could see.

Sort of deliver the lines, but somebody else was. uh doing all the talking and ceremony. I I'd be fine with He'd be fine with that. Oh, yeah, I bet he would be fine with it. He'd be fine with it if they shoved his wife on the ticket too.

My goodness' sakes, I'll tell you. This is what they do in communist countries. Yes, it is.

So, Sharon, what he just admitted back in 2020 is: yeah, he's running things behind the scene. And I don't think he cares that anybody actually knows it. Hey, did you Yeah. This is why every time they show Joe uh b uh Joe Biden on the scene, I think of Walter the puppet. They look alike, and now we know they are alike.

Well, there you go. I'm unfamiliar with Walter. Are they kind of like Bert and Ernie? Are they Muppets? No, no, Walter the Puppet, this is a this is a fellow that does a lot of shows in Vegas, and he used to do a lot of shows on T V until Joe Biden come into office and everybody saw the similarities.

Oh. Yeah.

I gotcha. Oh, yeah. He's a ventriloquist.

Well, somebody's got their hand upside Biden's backside. I'll tell you that. Just like, just like that man has his hand upside. Side the bottom of Walter the Puppet. Wow.

The Wazoo, as we call it here in Tennessee. All right. Sharon, is Joe satisfied? He heard Barack Obama. You heard Barack Obama did.

He goes, Yes, he did. All right, very good.

Well, there you go. You know, and Sharon, I'm glad you did this because it's important. You know, people, you know, they're out and about doing things listening to the show, and they're like, did I really just hear what I thought I heard?

So I'm glad you called back, and I'm glad we were able to get that audio for you. Oh wonder. Glad you played that for him because that is something everybody needs to hear more than once. Indeed, it is. All right, Sharon, thank you.

Have a great weekend. You too. All right. We like Sharon in North Carolina. You know what we need to do?

We need to get Sharon a radio for the downstairs, too. You need a radio in every part of your house, folks. I have one of those Dylan, I've got a a transistor radio, which is now is like also um It's uh it's battery powered. And it has like the little hand crank. And it's also got the solar.

Vintage.

So, if the apocalypse happens, we'll still be able to listen to KWAM. Nice. You know, it is what it is. Or Wow, I'm glad we were able to help folks out. We need some music.

Let me know when you work on that because otherwise it's just kind of an awkward silence on the air. And, you know, you don't want to have silence on the air.

So, Dylan, when you. When you find some good music, just start playing it. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, just start playing it, and we'll figure it out together. We'll come up with something. All right.

Oh, speaking of coming up with something. I got to tell you about our friends at Newsmax. They're running this poll, and of course, Trump's going to be speaking this weekend. There is a big rally. Newsmax will be broadcasting the rally, and you need to watch.

Anyway, Newsmax is conducting a national poll, and they want to know who are you leaning towards for VP? Who do you want Trump to pick for the VP? Except Can I just say, I never was really happy about my pence. I just thought it was a eh, eh. I don't know.

I'm not sure what the discussions were about that because he had some great, great options, but why Mike Pence? Oh, to be a fly on Mike Pence's head in that conversation Anyway, Newsmax wants to know: who do you think ought to be Trump's VP? Text the word skip to 39-747. That skip to 39747. Here's how this will work: they will send you a poll link.

And then you make your pick, and boom, your voice is heard. And who knows, President Trump might pick your person. You just never know. Vice President Dieter. That that has a ring to it.

It does indeed.

So again, text the word skip to thirty nine seven four seven and vote in the Newsmax poll. All right, nine oh one two six zero five nine two six Open Line Friday. This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back everybody. Good to have you with us today.

I was just, I was checking my Delta Airlines flight in the commercial break, heading to Los Angeles. We're going to be speaking to the Republicans, having a big gala event, raising some money for great conservatives out there. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't flying in a Boeing, you know, was it a 737, and I wanted to make sure I didn't have a window seat. Just I would at least have a fighting chance if they uh blow a hole outside the windows. Anyway, I'm good.

I'm on the aisle, which is nice. Speaking of nice, by the way, I've got to tell you about just really an incredible organization called Old Glory Bank, and I love the slogan, the bank that stands with you. And that's a big deal, right? You know, I can't tell you the last time I actually talked to a human down at my bank. You got to check out the website oldglorybank.com.

And you know, they're good people. There's a guy sitting on a tractor right on the front of the website. You don't see that at Bank of America. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line, and we're honored to have with us Eric Olhausen, who is the Chief Strategy Officer for Old Glory Bank. Eric, hope you're doing well today.

I'm doing fantastic. Thank you for having me on.

Well, absolutely.

Well, let's jump into this, Eric. Tell our great listeners across the nation what you guys are up to. How did you guys launch Old Glory Bank? Sure. Happy.

I was joined early on by several co founders that most of whom, if not all, your audience will be familiar with. Country singer and patriot John Rich, Dr. Ben Carson, Larry Elder. The former two-term Republican governor of Oklahoma, Mary Fallon Christensen. And Bill Schein, who has served as deputy chief of staff in the Trump administration.

We came together to form Old Glory Bank because we saw a need for really three. main things that were lacking um in banks today. First is we saw a need for a bank that's pro-America. Second, that it won't a bank that won't cancel its customers for their beliefs. And third, a bank that will keep customer data private.

And really, all three of those things are what we've embraced with Old Glory Bank. We promote pride in America, support for our military. We are tired of seeing the police and first responders vilified for doing their job and protecting Americans. And we support the foundational principles of our country of freedom, faith and family. I think so much is written about and spoken about these days about cancel culture that's entering the banking system.

Whole industries are being canceled, not just outspoken individuals, but If you try to buy a firearm or an ammunition, PayPal won't process those transactions. I mean, it's right in their terms of use.

next to saying you can't use PayPal for stolen property or illegal drugs, and just after that, they say firearms.

So really a shame to see that financial institutions are picking who they think can bank and participate in the financial system. And then most prominently, I'm sure your listeners are familiar with most recently, so much being written about banks sharing, voluntarily sharing data with federal law enforcement as well as the Treasury. And those are that's something we just unequivocally promised to our customers that we would never do that voluntary sharing of data, such an invasion of privacy. We're certainly a lawful Operation, so presented by an unchallengeable subpoena. Of course, we would need to comply, but it's just egregious what has been reported that the big banks have been doing of just wholesale sharing of data with.

no reason for suspicion of crimes having been committed. All right, so there's a lot you just said there, so let's go back and let's unravel a lot of it. First of all, I want to talk about the bank because it's really a hometown bank, and it really doesn't matter where you are across America, people are able to open up accounts. Is that right? Absolutely.

So we really refer to ourselves as the community bank, whose community is the entire country. We are historically, we're actually the bank is in its second century of operation. It was a bank founded in Oklahoma, First State Bank of Elmore City, founded in nineteen oh three, actually when Oklahoma was still just a territory, not yet a state. But what we did is just about a year and a half ago, the ownership of the bank changed. We renamed it Old Glory Bank and repositioned it to fulfill the points I described earlier.

But we are a fully online mobile bank. We have tens of thousands of customers that have joined us in recent months, clear across the country, every state of the union. And I'll point out quite sincerely, we have phenomenal technology and online banking experience to where anyone Considering moving from a large bank, there should be no reservation about having to give up anything. Really feature-rich online banking tools that we're really proud to have introduced to a historically more community-oriented bank. And of course, John Rich, ladies and gentlemen, on the show just a few days ago, and Larry Elder and Ben Carson, regulars here on the program as well.

And Bill Schein, who you mentioned early on, happened to be my direct boss over at Fox News back in the day for a number of years.

So good people that are associated with Old Glory Bank. Eric, I did want to ask you about the federal government because they have been making headlines lately, the banks have, with going after people who are Trump supporters, America First Patriots, flagging transactions where words like MAGA and Trump are involved, or people going out and buying Bibles.

So if Old Glory Bank were ever asked, what would you do? As the bank.

Well, simply being asked, we would first say no. We would not comply with that, and we would certainly go public with the request because I think that's something our customers and the rest of the population should be aware of such efforts by the regulators and the federal law enforcement. As I said, it was so egregious is you consider what's required typically for a search of someone's personal property and records. It typically requires a warrant or a true enforceable subpoena that's issued with lots of steps having to gone through to issue such a subpoena. Initially, we would if presented with one, we would certainly want to review it and challenge it if we think it's overreach.

But we're a law abiding organization. Our mission statement, we say, is the U. S. Constitution.

So we certainly adhere to laws. And I just would point out that's what was so significant with the recent behavior is that the banks were simply voluntarily responding to a request um and not even informing their customers of of what was being done. Again, folks, oldglorybank.com is the website, oldglorybank.com. And it's really the bank for everybody who makes the country run every day. And you're going to find that language on the website, the proud patriots that are really the engine driving this great nation and the reason why we are the most exceptional nation on the planet.

And again, I love this idea. We call it a patriot economy, Eric. And I think it's important for us to start as conservatives, start paying attention to where we do business and where we put our money.

Well, I certainly appreciate the opportunity to talk about Old Glory Bank. I'll point out that we have accounts for both consumers and businesses.

So we welcome whatever your banking needs might be. We have some phenomenal solutions, and that even includes eighty five thousand locations across the country where we have partnerships with retail locations, big name Retailers that your audience would know where you can deposit cash.

So there's directly into your account.

So, really, no reason to be limited to just the bank down the street.

Well, this is good to know. And Eric, we're just so excited for you guys. And thank you for being great patriots and standing alongside good people, and especially people of faith and people who are conservatives. Maybe they've been canceled out there in the other banking world, but you guys are embracing them, and we just think that's pretty spectacular.

Well, thank you. Much appreciated. All right. There you go, folks. Eric Olhausen, who is the Chief Strategy Officer for Old Glory Bank.

Got to check this place out, old GloryBank.com. That's oldglorybank.com. And folks, we talk about this a lot with the Patriot Mobile, America's only Christian conservative wireless carrier. Why would you continue to give money to companies that are fighting against the values that you cling to? And the same thing applies to where you put your money.

And why not check out Old Glory Bank? A lot of great patriots, including Dr. Ben Carson, a part of this incredible bank. OldGloryBank.com is the website. Again, that's oldglorybank.com.

Check them out in the break. 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 favorite gun totem, Bible-clanging, deplorable American. That's it!

That's right. I love this American ride. Todd Starns. And hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Starns Radio Program.

Hour three of the big show is underway. Great to have you with us. And of course, the breaking news. Coming out of Washington, the White House press briefing is now underway. And this is following yesterday's scathing, scathing report on President Biden, describing him as a man who is elderly, a man who has diminished capacity, a man who, quite frankly, has no business being anywhere near the White House.

And we are going to hopefully be joining some of that White House press briefing here momentarily as the White House is faced with very, very serious problems. Questions surrounding the The status of President Biden and his health. Let's dip into some of that coverage right now. They see that this was a long investigation that ended without a case to be made. And I think that they can see and understand when people are gratuitous and make comments that they shouldn't make and that are beyond the remit of a prosecutor to do.

I think that they understand that. And I think that they'll understand that the president did the right thing here. If the 7th and 8th were obviously, 8th and 9th were obviously like very busy days where the president was overstretched, taking calls in the middle of the night, all of this, why continue with the interview with her? Why not do it on another day? Why give him the opportunity to have these lines in the report about lapses, about timelines?

He should have thrown up roadblocks, is that what you're saying? I mean, he committed to it. I'm like, hey, the world is on fire. Could we do it another day? I'll tell you what's interesting about this, and this is.

Oddly not in the report is at the beginning of his interview, the special counsel told the president, I understand that you're dealing with a lot of things right now, and I'm going to be asking you questions about stuff from a long time ago. I want you to try to recall, to the best of your abilities, things of that nature. That's often what prosecutors would tell witnesses.

So, you know, he understood that, but the president was going to commit to being cooperative. He talked about this last night. He wanted to make sure he had everything he needed, and he didn't want to throw up roadblocks. We got it. We've got that time.

Thanks, Green. Just a first question: has the president read the entire report, and when was he given the report? Did he review it when his lawyers did the privilege review? And do you have any just context on when he himself found the findings of it? We received the report yesterday from the Justice Department and formally present, you know, sending it over.

Obviously, the President's lawyers were doing the privilege review that we disclosed to everybody was happening and disclosed when we had concluded it. And so I think they had briefed him on the material as the client, as is typical in a legal case. And then we received the full report yesterday. The president's been pretty busy. I'm not sure he's read 400 pages.

I'm not sure how many folks in this room have read all 400 pages of it, but he certainly is familiar with the contents of the report. Just one quick follow-up. The president was animated last night rejecting the idea that he did not remember when his son died. Can you provide a little bit more context? context about was he directly asked in the interview by the special counsel for the dates was it part of a broader conversation i just think some additional context to understand what is in that report might be helpful yeah i think i mean the president was pretty clear last night and i think that the american people have heard from him for years about the pain and the suffering that they went through when bow passed away and the gravity of that and i think to suggest that he couldn't remember when his son died is really out of bounds you know the conversations in the In the interview back and forth, you know, he's being asked about, you know, file folders from a basement and how did they get there and what is that?

And what were you doing around that time and things of that nature? I don't want to just be very careful. I don't want to get into specific things while it's still in a classification process. But it is safe to say that, of course, the president knows when his son died.

So, do you have any sense of why the special counsel would write explicitly in the report that the president did not, was unable to recall when his son died? You'd have to ask the special counsel why he chose to include that. Thanks, Craig.

So how did the special counsel respond when you told them that? I put out his report.

So they ignore it. I'm unaware of any changes that were made in response to our very strong, forceful, and rooted in evidence arguments that we provided. And you had just mentioned how these interviews happened shortly after the October 7th attacks. The president mentioned it last night. Mentioning that, does that mean that possible memory lapses happened because he was so distracted by what was happening overseas?

Or do you dispute that he had any memory issues during those hours of interviews? I dispute that the characterizations about his memory that were in the report are accurate because they're not. And I think the president spoke very clearly about his mind was on other things. Let's continue the lesson here. This is a great global consequence.

And he was trying his best to to answer questions in this interview because he wanted to be fully cooperative.

So there were no memory lapses during I think there's something important that people should remember about the way that sort of interviews like this happen. God forbid, one of you guys ever have to get interviewed by a prosecutor, and I hope you don't. Witnesses are told, as I mentioned by special counsel, to do the best they can to recall or remember things. And they're not supposed to speculate. They want facts.

They want facts and evidence. And so I think probably in almost every prosecutorial interview you can imagine that people have said that they don't recall things because that's what they're instructed to do.

So I think that's just important. Excuse me. I have a question, please. Hello, sir. Sir, I have a question.

Could you explain why President Biden thinks Mexico is next to Gaza? Anybody want to answer that one, sir? I don't think they can hear me. Wow, this is insane. We don't have KJP out here.

What happened to KJP? They sent a white guy out. What's that all about? All right, let's continue to listen in. And frankly, the report says that too.

And the idea that he did anything except be totally cooperative and to take great strides to ensure that the classified documents were returned speaks for itself.

Okay, good. Thank you. Ian, the Vice President referred today to the report as being politically motivated. Is that the position of the White House that this report was politically motivated? I saw the Vice President's remarks.

I thought they were very powerful. And I talked about this a little bit at the top of our conversation here today. You know, there's an environment that we are in that generates a ton of pressure because you have congressional Republicans, other Republicans attacking. prosecutors that they don't like. And it creates you know, a a need if you're going to determine that charges weren't filed.

People are human and they're thinking through, you know, what do we need to do? And you know, it leaves one to wonder exactly why he included a lot of the criticisms that were in there. Also, with regard to the staff, President Bind has had some staff members who've worked for him for decades. He referenced their mistake last night. Has he had a visit with any of these staff members?

Do the staff members who are responsible for taking those documents to his house, do they still work for the president? Have there been any consequences?

Well, I think I talked about this also before. I mean, this is an issue that has plagued administrations of both parties for 50 years, where accidentally things get shuffled up and taken and removed. And the archives has, you know, literally they put a frequently asked questions page on their website about what you do if you find them accidentally. That's how often it happens. And, you know, he gave them all back as soon as he found out about it.

We understand that mistakes happen sometimes. I'm not going to get into sort of individual witness or parsing like that from the report. What happened for President Obind? Obama, President Clinton, President Bush Sr., or President Bush Jr. I don't know if three people makes it a common officials from all administrations from the past half century or so have had this accidentally happen.

But you're parsing two things. You asked me about the fact that, and the report states this clearly, that this is likely the result of inadvertent packing by staff, and you asked exactly about the staff issue, and so I'm responding about the staff issue.

Okay, and you can't say whether the staff still work for President Biden.

Well, I'm saying that the question you're asking about the frequency and normalcy, unfortunately, of mistakes like these being made, they happen. And what matters is how you respond to it. And when you find out that there was a mistake that was made, you give everything back, and that's exactly what was done. Trying to get as much people as possible injury. Thanks, Ian.

What does it say about Merrick Harlan's judgment that he appointed someone who ultimately put a report that was so egregious, so inappropriate, violent department regulations and norms? The president actually answered this question last night. I'm going to get a short interview. You asked him it, but he talked about it. Can I just make an observation here?

As we're watching this in real time, we're listening to the White House press briefing. And I love it. Whenever there's tough stuff, they send the white guy out, right? He's the expendable guy.

So, KJP, the diversity hire, she's just, well, look at her. She's really rubbing those hands together. What's that all about? The president was talking about a handwritten, if you ask me. To President Obama, that he factories are talking about the Afghanistan.

Now she's praying. She's got her hands clasped in the praying position. And he said last night, I should have said a job. That's more careful language about that. Because he was talking about something that was a personal, like a letter he sent to the president.

So in a history of the past, you notice he's like bald, but it's like a weird kind of a large. They talk a lot about. And I don't mean to make fun of you. I'm not making fun of you. You lose your hair, you lose your hair.

Something's not quite right about that man. Oddly kind of eggish. I'm not entirely sure about it. And so I think that's a problem. It's off-putting.

I'm sorry. It's distracting. I can't wait. Let's listen. With this sort of information, as they explore all the theories and go through all the evidence that sort of refutes most of those theories, almost all of actually all of those theories, when you think about the judgment, that there will be no case in this matter.

So that's addressed in the report. And the second thing, The president also said last night, all the stuff that was in my home was in filing cabinets that were either locked or able to be locked. But the report says that some of the classified documents were in cabinet drawers, while others of out Afghanistan, for example, were in unsealed and badly damaged box sitting in his garage.

So did the president misspeak last night? Look, I think the president was responding to a number of inaccurate allegations in this report. We've talked a lot about Justin asked about the diaries. I mean, this is his personal diaries. Of course, he has them in his house.

So, you know, I don't have anything kind of to add on what he said last night. I want to follow up on the vice president's comments on, you've been saying catuitous, she said politically motivated. Is it this administration's stance that this report was issued in part, or there was a motive in this issue, a goal with this report to inflict political harm on the president? I think that you have to look at what, I mean, we talked about this. At the beginning of our conversation today, you know, you have a situation where former DOJ officials are talking about the political repercussions of these actions and that it's incumbent upon the prosecutor to take great care to follow departmental policy to not criticize unindicted conduct and behavior or characteristics, which we've seen in the United States.

In this case, that's former DOJ officials. But this White House right now, is it the stance by this White House that this report was issued in part with a motive and a goal to inflict political harm on the president? I heard the question the first time, and I'm just, I, you know, have nothing to object to in what the vice president said. I thought she was powerful and forceful. But also, just to follow up, I'm sorry.

This administration, as you said, you said that Republicans have often attacked prosecutors, independent systems, and you said that's created an environment where, if I've interpreted this right, there is an incentive by this special counsel to include some of this language. But often I've heard from Democrats in this White House say that. Those attacks against independent systems can also sow distrust with the public and those independent institutions. By saying that this is politically motivated, not just gratuitous, but politically motivated, does this not also sow distrust with the public? I reject that question.

You see this, and it's in the report, the letter that the president's lawyer and the White House is. It's a press conference. I also reject a press conference. The Department of Justice norms and policies as being violated. I've heard enough.

All right, and I wanted you to hear some of this, and there's a reason why. Ladies and gentlemen, the White House Press Corps has officially turned. on Joe Biden. It is over. We're not talking about Fox News.

We're not talking about the son of Deucey. What's his name? Peter. Peter Ducey. Thank you.

Peter from South Haven Dercy. Yeah, we're not talking about this guy. No, we're talking about rank and file mainstream media members that are now going after Biden. They smell blood in the water. That's what that's all about.

And I will say this, ladies and gentlemen, and hear me on this. If, in fact, the argument of the White House is that Joe Biden is lucid and mentally competent, then that means the Special Prosecutor has to go back and change his recommendation. Because the only reason the Special Prosecutor chose not to recommend charges was because of the feeble and fragile mental state of the President of these great United States.

So if the White House is coming back and saying, oh, no, no, no, he's Put him on jeopardy. He's the he will be a champ.

Well, if that's the case, then Joe Biden has to go to jail. Joe Biden has to face charges. Because Joe Biden willingly and knowingly broke the law. That was from the special prosecutor's report, by the way.

So you can't have it both ways.

So one of two things is going to happen here. Joe Biden is going to the Alzheimer's unit, or he's going to jail. I mean, it's really that simple. Oh, we got to take a break here. 901-260-5926.

That's our telephone number. It is open line Friday. That's 901-260-5926. And hear me on this, ladies and gentlemen. This is not some sort of a surprise, right?

The Press Corps did not just suddenly decide to do journalism. They have been told by their Democrat handlers, i.e., the Obama administration. To do this, we'll be right back. When Cynthia came to TurboTex, she had just launched her new side gig, a true crime podcast. I'm a first-rate detective with a golden voice.

As her TurboTax expert, I made her second income count by guaranteeing 100% accurate filing and her maximum refund. Mm. What did she do with that refund? Find out next week. Switch to Intuit TurboTax and make your moves count.

See guarantee details at turbotax.com/slash guarantees. Experts only available with TurboTax Live. All right, they kicked the white guy off the podium.

Now KJP is back, and the White House press briefing continues. We will monitor, but I do want to go to the phones. Don in North Carolina, listening to this crazy press conference. Don, what are your thoughts here? It's just um It it just makes you want to just scream.

Because They ask, well, when did the White House Get the report.

Well, the White House got it yesterday, but General Counsel got it. earlier and has briefed everyone on it. Before that, well, who's general counsel and who's everyone else? Is it chief of staff? Is it Joe Biden?

Is it the press secretary?

So they all had to report when. Last week, two weeks. Two weeks ago. And He's either competent or he's incompetent, one or the other. And What they're saying is that the special prosecutor lied.

that his report is false. Right?

That's what they're saying. That's what they're saying, but they're not saying they're saying that. But yes, Don, that's what they just told us.

So the special prosecutor gave Joe Biden a break. He gave him a pass because he's old and feeble and he likes ice cream and he likes to smell hair on little girls. But the special prosecutor for Donald Trump doesn't cut him any slack at all. Yes, are you catching you catching on there, Don? You see what's going on?

Yes. Yes, we're not going to charge the President because he's old and feeble, even though he committed crimes. But If he wasn't old and feeble, he would have been guilty. That's it, Don. I mean, that is it in a nutshell.

And that is the double standard. And that's why President Trump and his legal team are saying, now you got to dismiss the charges against us. And they're right. Don, we got to run. It's look, brilliant, brilliant point you're making there, folks.

Are you seeing the hypocrisy now? But I'm telling you, they did have that report. They knew what was coming down, and they chose to send Biden out there last night because they knew he would implode. All right, got to take a break. We'll be right back, folks.

And welcome back to the Tot Stars Radio Program, and welcome to all of our Newsmax viewers as we simulcast the last hour of the radio show. This is uh an interesting stat from betonline.org, uh, getting ready for the Super Bowl. And uh they went and they decided to tally up which NFL fan bases are the biggest Taylor Swift fans. They call them by the way, uh, Dylan, you may not know this, they're called Swifties. I thought they were Swiffers, but that's that thing that you uh That collects dust.

You know, it's kind of like a fancy broom. But these are Swifties. Don't be offending those fans now. No, no, no.

So it turns out, believe it or not, well, I'm not surprised here. Thirty nine percent of Kansas City Chiefs fans follow Taylor Swift, but it's number two that gets me. The Philadelphia Eagles. I find that I d I don't believe it. I don't believe it.

It makes sense 'cause the brothers in the podcast?

Well, yeah.

Well, okay. That makes sense. That makes sense. I figured they they boot Santa Claus once.

So anyway, the the top five here, we got the Chiefs, Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys. That explains a lot. the New England Patriots and the Detroit Lions. And so there you go. I found this interesting.

Tennessee. the tightens only eleven per cent towards the bottom. And San Diego, well, Los Angeles Chargers now, only 2% of their fans are Swifties.

So there you go. All right. Welcome back to the show. 901-260-5926. Want to go right to the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line and say hello to Congressman Kelly Armstrong, a Republican from North Dakota.

Congressman, good to have you with us today.

Well, thanks for having me on. I'm not going to ask if you're a Taylor Swift fan. That's unfair to ask for the first time out on the show.

Well, I have a 16-year-old daughter, so it is played in my house, but I think the reason Tennessee might be the lowest is they got some of the best bluegrass country music in the world right in that area.

Well, this is true, and Senator Marcia Blackburn, she took on the Taylor Swift machine and won.

So there you go. That's a fair point.

So, Congressman, we just saw a stunning press conference coming out of the White House where they are now basically siding with Kamala Harrison saying this was a politically motivated hit job, talking about the special counsel's report that came out yesterday.

Well, first of all, the report I mean, let's not bury the lead on the report. It said that the President had willfully and intentionally disclosed classified documents to his ghostwriter, amongst other people, that threaten national security. I seem to see a different scenario where that's going on right now, where there's a federal prosecution. But when you're not going to prosecute somebody, you have to give them a reason why. And obviously, this worried the political people in the White House enough to have Joe Biden do a very rare evening press conference that I don't think went very well at all.

That to me, Congressman, looked like a political hit job. I can't imagine why anybody on that staff would have thought it was a good idea to let him go out there, especially at night, especially without the first lady there who's always on hand literally to guide him back to where he needs to go. I'm just wondering: do you think this was maybe a setup to force him out or at least off the ticket? Oh, I don't know about that. I mean, I think to some degree or another, he may have demanded doing it.

We'll find out later. But either way, I think it's just further I think the reason they're so upset about it is it's because it's not like what they said in the report isn't something that people have been able to see for the and the rare occasions that he's actually out there. I mean the last week he's referred to a guy, a guy, a French president that he met with last week that's been dead for two decades, and he did it twice. Even in the press conference, he mi I mean, he he stumbled over his words and apparently we're building a wall in Egypt now? Who knew?

And Mexico's doing it. It's okay. Mexico's paying for it, I guess. Congressman. And again, it's sort of a lose-lose for Biden.

If you're reading into this, they're saying the reason why they're not recommending charges is because he's a feeble old man.

Well, Biden's out there and his administration, they're saying, no, that's not true. He's not feeble.

Well, if that's the case, Let's prosecute.

Well, I I mean, that's exactly right. And I mean, 18 counts, all of those different issues. You're going to hear the national media and the liberal media expound numerous, numerous there's going to be a hundreds of gallons of ink spilled as to why this is so different than President Trump's case. But the problem is that the American people aren't buying it because it's not true. And so if you're going to have a reason not to prosecute the President, then you have to have a reason for it.

And the reason is not helpful to him politically. But the reason it's not helpful politically is because people see it all the time. Whenever he gives an interview, whenever he gets on and off a stage, I mean, it's sad, but it's also true. It's not like it's a narrative that came out of left field. It's been something that has been available to anybody who pays attention for a very long time.

It was very clear to me, and I covered the White House during the Obama years, and it was very clear to me that somebody turned on the switch for the White House press corps to go after Biden. And CNN was, I got to tell you, last night they were pretty tough on Biden. The questions coming out of that press conference today were very tough as well. But this is not a coincidence. It certainly looks like this is all orchestrated to get Biden to reconsider his plans for 2024.

Well, and if that's the case, I mean, it should be. And they they're going to have to work their way through it. But I think the real answer is, you know, I was watching one of them this morning when I woke up, just so I know who to be mad at for the rest of the day. And they're like the response is he needs to get out there and he's got to go. Do more town halls and do more of those things.

I think that I mean, the happiest person in the world to hear that is President Trump. Sure. Because I don't think that's going to help the problem in any meaningful way. In all seriousness, though, Congressman, I think we are dealing with an issue of national security. I mean, our enemies see this.

They saw the report. They saw the President's behavior yesterday. Do you believe that this man is capable of fulfilling his oath of office? You know, he was elected. I mean, we're at that place.

We have an election coming up in November, and I think the American people should decide this. You know, we had a Supreme Court case that went on yesterday about a bunch of bureaucrats trying to take President Trump off the ballot. We're walking into an election year, and I don't think the American people are going to think that he's capable of running the country.

Well, I'm not talking about Congress getting involved. I mean, there is a course of action here. The 25th Amendment, the cabinet, his own administration, can decide whether or not he is mentally sound enough. to continue with the job. That's what I was referring to.

Yeah.

I can't see that happening walking into an election year, but I think they have real political problems, and they have problems because their policy is terrible. They have problems because the current occupier of the White House cannot communicate in a meaningful way. And we need to do everything we can to make sure President Trump gets elected in November because our country. Our country's at stake. You know, Congressman, speaking of political problems, Republicans unable to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas.

And I hear the argument all the time. And, you know, we have everybody, all the Republicans are on the show. They come on and they say the same thing.

Well, our majority is just not large enough. And I get that. You know, I never heard Nancy Pelosi say those words. And she was able to get a heck of a lot done when she was Speaker of the House. She was, and I'll tell you why, because it wasn't that she didn't give Republicans a seat.

I mean, we're in the minority in Congress, we didn't, but she wouldn't even let her own committee chairs have any input. I mean, she sent everybody home for two years, and she ran stuff off of her printer and down onto the floor of the House. And there's no doubt she was very effective at that. That's just not how democracy is supposed to work. I think we'll get it done next week.

Majority Leader Scalise is going to be back from his cancer treatment, and I think we'll have a better result as soon as we get back to D.C.

next week. All right, real quick before we let you go here, of course, the other big news that came out yesterday, the Supreme Court hearing. My I was more intrigued by what Elena Kagan had to say more than anyone else, only because she seemed to be asking questions that a constitutionalist would be asking.

Well, absolutely.

The real reason I turned it on this morning is I wanted to check on the cable news legal analyst this morning and do a welfare check after the last three weeks of them talking about the Supreme Court case. But it turns out that when you pass an amendment specifically to take rights away from states after the Civil War, you're probably not going to let an unelected bureaucrat in the case of Maine make the determination as to whether a president can be on the ballot. Fair enough.

Well, Congressman, we appreciate you coming on the program today. I know it's going to be a busy season for you guys, and of course, hitting the campaign trail as well. Thank you very much. Appreciate you. Thanks for having me.

All right, Congressman Kelly Armstrong from North Dakota. He's a member of House Judiciary and also the Weaponization Committees weighing in all this crazy. Biden press conference last night, and then the White House trying to clean it up on aisle six today, and I don't think that worked out.

So, look, here's the deal: we are going to take your phone calls. Should Biden be removed from office? Are we better off, at least in the interim, with Kamala Harris in the Oval Office? 901-260-5926. That is the telephone number up on the screen right now.

That's 901-260-5926. We'll be right back. All right, welcome back, everybody. Good to have you with us here on the Todd Stern Show. By the way, don't forget to book markettoddstarns.com.

We have a lot of great information for you there. You got to check out the free podcast and the free newsletter coming out every single day.

Well, Monday through Friday, not every single day. Let's go to the phone lines. Mike in Florida, WOCA is our great affiliate there. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind?

Yes, sir. We're definitely experiencing that static you were talking about down here as well. And I also wanted to definitely say yes, we want The President But my main Thing is, the response to the PETA, Oklahoma, Vegan Ten Commandments. I totally disagree with that, and I would like to share my thoughts regarding that.

So, you disagree with putting the ten vegan commandments in the schools, or do you want them in the schools? No, I want them to not go into schools. Oh, but I have some comments on that. Go right ahead, yes. All ears, Mike.

Okay, God himself provided animal skins for Adam and Eve. The night of deliverance from Egypt for God's people consisted of consuming fast food, which included lamb. You know, the animals were used to move the ark, animals were used by a prophet. to do plowing. The whole sacrificial sanctuary service, which started with Abel, pointed to Jesus to teach.

Without the shedding of blood, there are no taking away of our sins. John Baptist wore a camel's hair garment. Both a mother of Jesus And Uh he himself rode A donkey. And he never reprimanded. the disciples were fishing and he cooked and ate fish.

So so I'm trying to I'm I'm trying to understand your point.

So what how does this tie in to what because PETA is saying that uh they don't want people eating eating animals. I think that's the whole gist of what they're what they're getting at. And or even using them in any way of shape or form or even handling them at all. Or even riding horses. And we live down here in the horse capital of the world.

And by the way, one last thing: when Christ returns, his second coming, he will be riding on a white horse.

So either these people aren't Christian or they don't read their Bible.

Well and well, no doubt about that. They're probably godless heathen atheists. Yeah.

And they're always in a bad mood because they don't eat meat. Mike, appreciate the call. What was it in the New Testament where I think the Lord was getting ready to speak to a large and nobody had any food. And so somebody had a bucket of KFC and they passed it around and the bucket never got empty, right? They had biscuits and fried chicken for everybody.

It was It's a miracle. That's in the Southern Standard Version of the Bible, by the way. It's in the New Testament. Let's go, Tim and get him to get in trouble. Let's go to Ray in Michigan.

Ray, what say you?

Well, I just think after the election's said and done, the people that. handled Joe Biden should be brought up for other abuse. I mean the proof's right out there, prosecutors do it in counties all the time.

Well, it's of my opinion, Ray, and I wrote a column last night about this on the website. I think the first lady should be charged with elder abuse. I think she ought to be brought up on charges. I mean, you're looking at the where we've got the Newsmax feed up and it's got the video of Biden falling down at the commencement ceremony, Biden falling asleep, stumbling on stairs. I mean, everybody knows what's going on.

Shame on her. Yep. All right, Ray. Thank you. Appreciate that.

Let's go to Laura in California. Hi, Laura. You are on the air. Hi, Todd, good to see you. Um, I was just finished watching the White House uh briefing, and they definitely need to um use the twenty fifth Amendment to impeach Biden.

They think the American public is so stupid And that we don't have eyes. we can basically see what's going on with with this and is just ridiculous and is depressing. To even watch.

Well, it is. And Laura, just a slight correction. This is a matter of not an impeachment, but the Cabinet removing him from office.

So this would be a majority of the Cabinet would have to decide on this. And if that happens, then he would be He would be declared, you know. Ineligible to be in office. I mean, the guy's he's lost his mind. It's a terrible thing.

And you get it. I mean, there's a lot to really dislike Biden over, but you can't blame the guy for his mind going kaput. It is what it is. Laura, appreciate the call. Let's go to Joe in Washington.

Joe, what say you? Hey, I'm tired of This I live in a retirement community. I got sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety year old people who are much more brain capacity than mine does.

So you're saying it's not a matter of age, it's a matter of competency. Yes, yes, definitely. Yeah, I'd buy it. When you turn around and shake hands with nobody there, I mean That's just wrong. I forgot about that one, Joe.

He did. He turned around and nobody was there. But maybe, but Joe. Maybe somebody was there. Uh his family should be pressed.

I mean, they should be chart. Reviews. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, who was it? There was a He was giving a speech and uh oh, it was um Oh wow, this was back in 2022. Jackie Walorski, she was in Congress. She died in a car accident. And he was giving a speech in Wisconsin and actually gave her a shout out.

in the audience, and she wasn't there, Joe, she was dead. Yeah.

Exactly. She was dead. And I got people here that I live with. That can tell more than Biden ever could. Joe, I hear you.

And look, my grandmother Starnes lived to be 102, and she lived in a lovely retirement community in Memphis. And she had her faculties about her up until the very end.

So it's really sad what's happening to Biden, but a lot of this is genetics. What are you going to do? You know, your mind goes, your mind's going to go. Joe, appreciate that call, and we sure do appreciate you hanging out with us today on the radio. Folks, coming up, we're going to be checking in with Newsmax correspondent Caleb Park.

Also, we've got a radio rumble: Andy Hoosier from KQAM in Wichita, Kansas, and Mark Cox from the morning show over in St. Louis, Missouri. And I'm sure we'll be asking about the big Super Bowl. We've got some great stories to cover with those guys as well. Folks, it has been a wild week heading out to Los Angeles in just a couple.
