The Steve Gruber Show

Alejandro J. Ramos | Restoring Patriotism Through Civic Education

We’re joined by Alejandro J. Ramos, Young Voices contributor and Founder of the Ramos Research Institute. Based at Cornell University, Ramos is sounding the alarm on what’s missing in our schools today: patriotism and civic education. Too many young Americans grow up not understanding the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, or even what it means to be an American. Instead, they’re fed a steady diet of divisive ideologies that weaken national pride. Ramos explains why restoring civic education is vital for the future of our Republic, how we can instill love of country in the next generation, and why teaching kids about freedom, duty, and responsibility is the antidote to the cultural decline we see all around us.

James Lynch | School Choice Is Here to Stay

Joining is James Lynch, news writer for National Review and former reporter for the Daily Caller. Based in Washington, D.C., James has been covering the education battles up close, and he says one thing is clear: school choice is here to stay. From charter schools to education savings accounts, parents are demanding the power to decide what’s best for their children’s future. Despite pushback from teachers’ unions and the left, momentum is only growing as families flee failing public schools and embrace educational freedom. James breaks down why this movement is unstoppable, what it means for parents across America, and how it’s reshaping the future of education.

One — A group of Democratic governors is criticizing the Trump administration's efforts to deploy National Guard troops in major cities.  In a joint statement Thursday, 19 governors called the efforts an alarming abuse of power.  They claim Trump has cut funding for law enforcement and undermined the authority of governors over their states' National Guards. 

 

Two ---  Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook is filing a lawsuit after President Trump's attempt to fire her.  The suit is the start of a legal battle between the two sides that will likely end up in front of the Supreme Court.  It follows a Justice Department criminal investigation into the board governor after she was accused of making false statements on home mortgage applications. 

 
And number three ---  Today marks 20 years since Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast. It was one of the costliest and deadliest storms ever to strike the United States.

As states rush to legalize and profit from gambling, he warns this may turn into the next opioid-level crisis, leaving families shattered and lives destroyed. Dr. Benzio will break down why the addictive pull of sports betting is so dangerous, what patterns he’s already seeing, and how America must respond before it spirals out of control.
