  • Finally a Latino with common sense!

    Yo Rich! I really enjoy your show. Very informative especially when it comes to the history of this country, economics and, the understanding of our political climate. It is really great to hear a Latino on conservative views. Keep up the good work! P.S. Love it when you start throwing the Spanish lingo in your show! With a bit of Sofrito!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Midterms: MAGA or Marxism
Q: There are people that are listening to this that have to go and vote. And many of them are saying, I don't want to go vote. I don't like this war in Iran. I don't like having to pay more for gas. I don't like what's going on. Trump said no new wars. What do you say to those people?
Johnson says voting is a civic responsibility and a way to make one's voice heard, and encourages people to seek a ride to the polls if needed.
Midterms: MAGA or Marxism
Q: Talk to me about the state of affairs in Pennsylvania. There's a lot of elections across the country with the midterms going on. Talk to me about what's happening in Pennsylvania.
Todd Johnson describes state legislative contests and the governor's race between incumbent Josh Shapiro and Republican candidate Stacey Garrity, noting the narrow Republican margin in the state Senate.
Options For America, Ocasio-Cortez, Open Phones
Q: What should Republicans running for office say about healthcare costs and gas prices?
Catherine says Republicans should blame Obamacare for healthcare costs and point out that Democrats opposed fossil fuels while complaining about high gas prices. Valdés agrees and says those issues can influence voters.
Options For America, Ocasio-Cortez, Open Phones
Q: Which America do you want to live in?
William, calling from Glasgow, says he wants an America that leads the world, brings people together, and is not defined by political chaos. Valdés agrees that unity is desirable but argues that the middle ground has diminished.
Press, Puerto Rico, Plastic Surgery Perils
Q: So talk to me about your position on that, and what type of change you wanted to see in Puerto Rico?
Rodriguez supports statehood, saying Puerto Rico should remain connected to the United States and that independence could leave the island more exposed to corruption and foreign influence. She says statehood is necessary and that Governor Jenniffer González-Colón's resolution could focus attention and pressure Congress to act.
