  • Democratic socialism

    In the 1970’s one of my co-workers attended a scientific conference in Warsaw, Poland. She said people had tire sections tied onto their feet because the government had forgotten to have any shoes made. Some women had old spike heels with only the spike on the back, everything else worn off. Back then Poles were only allowed one pair of shoes a year, but there were no shoes. Some people only had rags tied around their feet.

  • Wrong

    Thank you for your service! But I cannot understand how a military man with integrity can honestly believe the narrative being pushed on Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Open your eyes there is a much bigger problem we Americans face!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Spain’s Border Collapse Is What Happens When Socialists Run Immigration
Q: Nick Freitas, do you think America is becoming a surveillance state?
The trend is toward greater surveillance, but not as extreme as some other regions; the balance between civil liberties and law enforcement appears to be an ongoing negotiation with warrants and privacy protections.
Socialist Leader Admits the Whole Plan — Abolish the Senate, ICE, Borders, and Prisons
Q: What exactly does the Democratic Socialists of America want in terms of government structure?
The host presents the DSA as aiming to replace traditional branches of government with a parliamentary socialist model, where Congress would have direct control over the presidency and the judiciary, effectively abolishing the Senate to consolidate power.
Here are the questions Gen Z is asking…
Q: How should Christians engage in political life without alienating people who disagree with them?
Lead with truth and compassion, practice gentleness and respect, and avoid echo-chamber behavior; engage in civil dialogue while maintaining firm commitments to core beliefs.
The Difference Between Raising Sons and Daughters
Q: What advice would you give to a parent who feels they missed bonding time with their kids when they were younger?
Acknowledge the past, then actively create new bonding opportunities now, engage in shared interests, and prioritize time with each child individually, showing up consistently and modeling faith and responsibility.
What They Won't Tell Young Men About Masculinity
Q: Do you think men and women should have distinct but complementary political roles?
Both men and women can serve in public office; there are differences in how they engage with leadership, but the focus should be on God's calling rather than rigid gender roles.
