  • West Coast Crab

    For the record I love your show and will continue to listen religiously. However the denigration of dungenous (aka West Coast crab) was a shot across the bow. Never thought of you as East coast elites. Please cancel any west coast golf excursions moving forward, I have tee times on the regular from late December through February with very few weather delays. Instead of golfing just eat your superior crab. Keep up the great work gentlemen. I appreciate you.

  • Down to 4 stars now you’re with Megyn Kelly

    You guys somewhat call out conspiracy doofs like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, but you’re silent re Megyn Kelly. I wonder why. Please maintain your integrity over the almighty dollar.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Iran War Continues
Q: What is driving Trump's current messaging and how might it affect policy or public opinion?
Listeners consider the Easter messaging and the broader pattern of rhetoric that signals a willingness to use force, but also scrutiny over whether there is a concrete plan, framing the debate around leadership style and strategic outcomes rather than just words.
Previewing President Trump's Oval Office Address
Q: If Congress passed a law saying that kids born to illegal immigrants are not citizens, would that change the discussion?
Yes, it would shift the debate to a legislative solution and alter how the courts approach the issue, though the president's action would still face scrutiny over constitutional boundaries.
Previewing President Trump's Oval Office Address
Q: Paul, you wrote about this for RealClear Investigations last year. What do you make of the president's case and how do you think it will fail in the court?
The core issue is how the 14th Amendment interacts with immigration law and executive orders; the court could focus on merits of constitutionality or dismiss the executive order as an attempt to overturn long-standing immigration law, which is a difficult path for the administration to justify.
Pam Bondi No Longer Attorney General
Q: What did you make of the president's remarks last night?
The consensus was that there was not much new in the speech, and while it aimed to reassure, it failed to convincingly translate military actions into strategic success or durable political support.
A Democrat Beat a Trump Endorsed Republican Candidate
Q: How can people reach American Independence Gold and get materials to start investing?
Visit americanindependencegold.com to request investor kits such as the gold IRA guide and the precious metals investor kit; they provide information tailored to the investor's options.
