Jack Bergman | National Security, Energy & Healthcare

Congressman Jack Bergman, representing Michigan’s 1st Congressional District, weighs in on escalating actions against Venezuela’s regime, which President Trump has labeled a foreign terrorist organization. Bergman discusses the U.S. seizure of a Venezuelan “ghost ship,” strikes against drug-running boats, and the ongoing fight to stop fentanyl and other deadly narcotics from reaching American communities. He pushes back on criticism from the left, noting that U.S. interdiction of drug vessels is nothing new, pointing out that legislation authorizing these actions dates back decades, including measures authored by Democrats like Chuck Schumer. The conversation also turns to issues impacting everyday Americans, including healthcare challenges and gas prices, and why strong leadership matters both at home and abroad.

David McIntosh | Economy & Everyday Costs Under the Microscope

David McIntosh, attorney, former U.S. Congressman (IA-2), co-founder of the Federalist Society, and President of the Club for Growth, joins the discussion on what’s behind America’s affordability challenges. McIntosh highlights how Club for Growth economists and leaders have been calling on Republicans to focus on kitchen-table economic issues like cost of living and affordability heading into the 2026 election cycle, noting that voters consistently weigh economic concerns above all else and want real, pro-growth solutions. Drawing on his long record advocating limited government, lower taxes, regulatory relief, and free-market reforms, he explains how high prices for housing, healthcare, energy, and essentials have squeezed families, and why policy matters when it comes to wages, prices, and overall economic freedom

Jason Isaac | Ford’s $20B EV Loss

Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, takes a hard look at the growing costs of the electric vehicle push. He explains how Ford’s EV experiment has resulted in roughly $20 billion in losses, while GM’s leadership continues to double down on costly EV investments despite weakening demand.

Number Two— The manhunt for the Brown University killer is ongoing—BUT there seems to be few leads and a real problem for law enforcement—they have not isolated a suspect it seems—but I have faith in this day and age—he will be caught—

 

Number Three— The left is going to get us killed. That’s what I’ve learned from this last week – whether it's the massacre at Bondi Beach in Australia – or the attack at Brown University – or the terrorist plot that was planned for L.A. on New Year’s Eve but was thankfully thwarted by our FBI.

Steve Gruber | President Trump will address the nation TONIGHT

Fighting for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—

 

Number One— Customs and Border Patrol has announced a haul of $200 Billion from record breaking tariff money—amid the stiff border enforcement and other critical policies that have proven to be effective—

 

Number Two— As we announced late in the program yesterday—the FBI according to its own field office in Washington DC never had probable cause to raid Mar-A-Lago—but political pressure prevailed and they were forced to do it anyway—

 

Number Three— I want to remind you that President Trump will make a primetime speech to the nation tonight at 9pm—and he is expected to recite his successes in the first year of his second term—and then lay out his vision for the coming year—

Kevin Kijewski | Is Anyone Holding the Attorney General Accountable?

Kevin Kijewski, Birmingham attorney and Republican candidate for Michigan Attorney General, weighs in on major accountability issues facing the state. Kijewski discusses emails that have come to light showing Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel contacted Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson regarding an investigation involving Nessel’s wife. According to new evidence, the request to pull back the investigation was followed, raising grave concerns about abuse of authority, conflicts of interest, and unequal justice. He argues that if the law is not applied evenly, especially by the state’s top law enforcement official, it undermines public trust and may rise to the level of impeachable conduct.

Dan Doyle, author of Of Roughnecks & Riches: A Start-Up in the Great American Fracking Boom and president of Reliance Well Services and Arena Resources, cuts through the noise with five hard truths the climate movement can no longer bury.

He challenges climate ideology with facts, data, and common sense, making the case that energy independence and environmental responsibility don’t have to be at odds.

J.D. Hayworth | Why Americans Pay More for Prescription Drugs

Steve is joined by former Congressman J.D. Hayworth (R-AZ), a former member of the House Ways and Means Committee and spokesperson for the Pharmaceutical Reform Alliance, to spotlight the real cost of prescription drugs in America. He talks about PRA’s interactive installation on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., where Americans are seeing firsthand how U.S. patients often pay more than three times as much for the same medications compared to other wealthy countries. Hayworth explains why transparency, competition, and common-sense reform matter, and how PRA is collecting personal stories from everyday Americans impacted by skyrocketing drug prices, putting pressure on a system that’s clearly not working for patients.

Jay DeBoyer | Oversight Chairman Calls Out AG Nessel

State Rep. Jay DeBoyer, Chair of the Michigan House Oversight Committee, joins Steve and lays out what he describes as overwhelming evidence of conflicts of interest involving Attorney General Dana Nessel. DeBoyer says the AG’s lack of participation and transparency during the committee’s bipartisan investigation raises serious questions about bias at the state’s highest law-enforcement office. He details two cases examined by the committee, including a campaign finance matter involving a family connection and an investigation into a politically connected attorney, where subpoenas were issued, key parties were allegedly never interviewed, redactions were improperly applied, and required isolation walls were breached. DeBoyer says both files now appear closed with no enforcement action, calling the situation either gross incompetence or cronyism, and warns that when justice is tilted by personal relationships, public trust is put at risk.
