The Steve Gruber Show

Joshua Phillip | Narco-States, Governors, and Defying Federal Authority

Joshua Philipp, senior investigative journalist for The Epoch Times, joins Steve to break down why Venezuela is the tip of a dangerous geopolitical iceberg. The capture of Nicolás Maduro exposed a narco-state fueled by oil, cocaine, communism, and foreign adversaries using chaos as a weapon. That same contempt for the rule of law is now echoing at home, from the Minnesota shooting to the reckless and legally questionable rhetoric of Governor Tim Walz suggesting the National Guard could confront federal agents.

Steve Gruber | Democrats Hate Any Successes of Donald Trump

Fighting for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—

Number One— Senator Mark Kelly who was among a group of Democrats calling on the military to not follow orders from the Commander in Chief—is now on the road to being censured—and maybe more—

Number Two— Senator Amy Klobuchar is the leading candidate to replace Governor Tim Walz in the race in Minnesota—if that happens it would mean both Senate seats in that state will be up for grabs in November—that is a problem for Democrats—

Number Three— I have to continue with the fallout from the bold and successful removal of Nicolas Maduro as the narco-terrorist dictator of Venezuela—
