Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr are unimpressed that President Biden has declared today (Feb. 1) to be “Climate Day at the White House”, which he explains it is also “Jobs Day at the White House”. And then Biden goes through a long list of items which he claims are truly American or will improve American lives….ending with “a future of enormous hope and opportunity”. But in reality, everything Biden said in that statement is untrue. It is just “made up stuff". Louis and Stephen go through a long list of facts which contradict what Biden just said.

Is the CDC really reporting only 23 people have gotten the flu this year in the United States? Is everything being reported as COVID-19? No wonder so many people don’t trust the numbers being reported by the government this year!

While our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, feel very badly for anyone who loses a loved one to COVID-19, it is time to do a better job of figuring out how to realistically and more effectively teach our children. We know virtual learning is not doing the job. We know elementary and middle school age children are not a major factor in spreading the disease. We know school is the only truly safe and nurturing place too many children can be most days. We are losing an entire generation, both academically and socially, because of the prolonged isolation. It is time to let the healthy, younger teachers back into the classrooms, working out special arrangements for those who have special health problems. And it is time to recognize the Teachers Unions are not putting the students FIRST!

When our enemies do not respect our President in the White House, they start doing things that they should not. There is good reason to think China, Iran, and North Korea may not have appropriate “respect” for President Biden, at least not the way they did for President Trump. They knew Trump didn’t bluff, nor look the other way. At the moment, our enemies seem to be becoming more aggressive in dangerous ways. Stephen Parr explains.

A Hoover Poll out of Stanford University has been released, and, not surprisingly, it is showing some great divides between the beliefs of Republicans and Democrats. There are a few areas both groups come close to agreeing on, however.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr discuss how the Democrats are so opposed to providing safety for the American people along the southern border with fencing, and yet, they are so afraid of the American people inside the Halls of Congress they want that ugly, temporary chainlink fence with razor wire, to become permanent. What really matters about fencing is why or why not use it?

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr talk about how far to the extreme left the Democrats in Congress have become. Their words and behavior since taking power for this new Congressional term have served no purpose other than as an expression of their power to achieve their hopeful goal of total intimidation of those who voted for Donald Trump. What they are doing is more symbolism than any thing else, such as having the National Guard available for photo-ops and then kicking them outside in the cold when they were no longer “needed or useful”. Even more, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez even declared she believes Sen. Ted Cruz came close to having her murdered, although she did not provide any evidence to support her hysteric declaration.

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, are sick of mean people. There is no reason for it. Candace Cameron Bure posted a family Christmas picture, and because she is on the Hallmark Channel and is a Christian, “the haters” showed up. Rude is rude. Hate is hate. If you don’t know better, then it is time for you to go away….or be cancelled out yourselves!

What a tangled web we have with Game Stop, Robin Hood, Wall Street, Google, and now Sec. of the Treasury, Janet Yellen! Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone explain.

Fake News Friday

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr discuss the topics Peter Buttigieg brought up in his Senate Confirmation Hearings for Secretary of Transportation. In addition to the taxes already existing on gasoline, he plans to tax you for every mile you drive in your car or truck. While this may seem like a good idea to people living in big cities on the coasts, it is a terrible idea for everyone living in “flyover country”. What about the problem of getting food and other goods to market? The trucking industry would be very hard hit, and think about how local retail stores have been out of consumer goods in the past year. So, why are the Democrats really wanting to this?

In 2016, a Florida man posted memes about how to vote by texting. To many, this was probably considered a joke, not a serious “voter information” meme. The FBI and the Federal Prosecutors out of the Eastern District of New York now are claiming he was violating the Federal Voter Intimidation Law by doing so.

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, think it is time for college students (and their families) to stop complaining about how the extremely intolerant left treats conservative students on campus. Even though they do not feel safe in such hostile environments, it is time to become more proactive. To be successful, however, the conservatives must be inclusive and let non-conservatives also be apart of their groups. If conservative college students need help in trying to figure out where to start, perhaps we at American Ground Radio can help. Contact us at [email protected] .

After talking about how the US House Democrats and the FBI are behaving as if Republicans are “the Nation’s enemy”, Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone “Dig Deep” into the Game Stop stock manipulation problem and how “ordinary people” fought back against the professional hedge fund market manipulators. For so many, it is interesting or confusing — or both! Stephen explains what really happened.

Jason L. Riley, journalist, author, and commentator, visits on the phone with Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone about Thomas Sowell. Riley has just completed a biography about Thomas Sowell, due out in May. Meanwhile, he narrates a film about Sowell, whom many consider to be “one of the greatest minds of the past half-century”. Stephen highly recommends you watch. https://www.sowellfilm.com/press-kit#Watch-Film

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr are not overly surprised the White House has put out 40 Executive Orders in its first week of office; but they are wondering who is really acting as President. Biden’s behavior does not indicate that he is the one making these decisions. And to be able to put out that many Executive Orders before he even has a Cabinet fully operational is curious. This is not looking as much like the Office of the President as perhaps a Dictator in Chief.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr continue to remind their listeners that “words have meaning”. The Democrats have a bad habit of changing the meaning of words (with the help of the media) so as to confuse the American public. The Democrat Party quit being a party believing in the value of liberty (Liberalists). It has evolved into a part of Intolerant Authoritarians and Fascists. Thus, the Freedom of Speech is viewed as dangerous to them and must be eliminated, banned, and/or controlled.

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, are very upset with intolerant Democrats who are unwilling to be honest about TRUTH. When criminals, who are in the United States illegally, are called “Illegal Alien” (which they are), the media and the extreme left go nuts! They attack conservatives for calling it what it is and speaking the honest truth. WHY? How do we fight back to protect our communities from this dishonest behavior?

John Kay of the Pelican Institute joins Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone on the phone to talk about School Choice and why it is so important.

The headlines about a Knights of Columbus poll on abortion probably would imply the majority Americans are supportive of abortion, but that is not correct. Stephen Parr explains the data behind a recent poll about how Americans feel about abortion. Remember, poll results depend upon the questions asked and how the data is collectively summarized.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr talk about President Biden having issues more Executive Orders in the first few days of his Presidency than all of the other previous 45 Presidents combined. Before the election, Biden was accusing Trump of behaving like a dictator with Executive Orders, but now Biden definitely seems to be behaving like one. But who wrote them? He seems to not know the details about these orders as he reads off the teleprompter. Even worse, several seem to be in direct violation of US Law.

There is a difference between “Guaranteed Equal Opportunities” and “Guaranteed Equal Outcomes”. The Democrats are taking us on a race to the bottom, not a race to excellence. The Declaration of Independence says we all have a Right to Pursue Happiness; but what makes one person happy will not make someone else happy. We all have different abilities in many different areas of skills and talents. Thus, we cannot all have the same outcomes in all matters of life. We cannot be putting EQUALITY above FREEDOM, because we will have neither, as history has shown repeatedly in Communist countries around the world.

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, think the State and Federal Governments should have asked Chick-fil-A to oversee the rollout and direction of the COVID vaccine. They are the experts at handling lines! Medical University of South Carolina at Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina had organized a big drive-through COVID vaccination event, but the computers went down and the lines backed up badly. The Mayor of Mt. Pleasant called for help……to the manager of the local Chick-Fil-A. The “pros” showed up, stood out in the rain, and got things going just fine. Wait time dropped from over a hour to about 15 minutes.

The National Bureau on Economic Research looked at all the studies regarding the impact of the Minimum Wage Laws on employment since 1992. They looked at the raw data, and talked to the researchers about what their data meant. The conclusion was 79.3% of the estimated impact of the minimum wage is negative.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, following their Law Right to do so, objected to the certification of the Presidential Election Results. So, to get even, the Democrats filed ethics complaints against them both. Senator Hawley is fighting back, and he has now filed ethics complaints against every Democrat Senator who filed a complaint against him. It is highly unethical to be abusing the ethics enforcement system for political reasons, which is what the Democrats did.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr look at the political marketing success of the 2008 Obama Campaign, with its “Hope and Change” and compare it to the Biden Campaign of “I’m Not Trump”. Even through Obama did not keep his marketing promises, he at least had some more positive goals than Biden does. And our American Press is ignoring this reality.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr look at the political marketing success of the 2008 Obama Campaign, with its “Hope and Change” and compare it to the Biden Campaign of “I’m Not Trump”. Even through Obama did not keep his marketing promises, he at least had some more positive goals than Biden does. And our American Press is ignoring this reality.

Considering the accepted election results of 80,000,000 votes for Biden, Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr try to figure out why only 20% of Americans think Biden can bring the people together and unify the Country. The reality is the first thing Biden did as President was to kill 70,000 jobs! He is allowing the unconstitutional impeachment of a former President to go forward, and he is not shutting down talk of “deprogramming” half of the entire Nation. And the Biden Administration is only one week old!

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, believe the idea of trying to “de-program” 74,000,000 Americans to be more than absurd. It actually is dangerous. The American Mamas find this to be the lowest level of stupidity possible coming from those elitist, self-righteous mouths! And not surprisingly, every news outlet is reporting this extremist chatter of how one half of the Nation is “brainwashed”. The media spent four years putting out a false narrative about Donald Trump. Now they are coming after everyone who voted for him.

Amazon clearly is not interested in fairness or consistency. During the 2020 elections, Amazon owner Jeff Bezos was adamant that almost all Americans should be able to vote-by-mail. Now, Amazon is adamantly opposed to its warehouse employees in Bessemer, Alabama being to vote-by-mail on whether or not to unionize. Amazon is demanding the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) require only voting-in-person be permitted!

In September, 2020, then President Donald Trump created the 1776 Commission for the purpose of encouraging “our educators to teach your children about the miracle of American history” and to “make plans to honor the 250th anniversary of our founding” in 2026. As one of his first acts as President, Joe Biden cancelled the 1776 Commission, and removed its report from the White House website. You can still read the report at https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmVzW5NfySnfTk7ucdEoWXshkNUXn3dseBA7ZVrQMBfZey

Donald Trump won in 2016 on a campaign of “Make America Great Again”, and the Democrats are determined to take the Nation back to where we were before Trump. They are convince that will make America “normal” again. Trump had the labor participation rate at a 50-year high, after Obama-Biden had it at an unreasonable low by deliberately killing off jobs, especially in manufacturing and in energy. The same it true for so much the American economy, including personal income, food stamp enrollment, home ownership, and personal wealth. Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr wonder if those who voted for Biden really understand what Biden meant by return to his “normal”? Are they going to like it?

It now is quite evident that the need of Troops at the US Capital was not for protection, but as props. When they no longer were needed, they were shoved out of the way and into a totally inappropriate parking garage. Trump authorized the Trump Hotel to give the troops a better place to stay. So who cares more about our Troops?

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, believe we all must remain hopeful, be positive, and get very aggressive in cleaning up the political problems at the local, grassroots level. Turn off the noise, speak up, and get involved, even if we have to go back to communicating with each other “the old fashioned ways”. We can do this!

After discussing how Donald Trump made American energy independent for the first time in decades, only to have Biden destroy that in his first week in office, Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone move on to asking who do you trust? The Media? The Government? Big Tech? Universities? Are the leaders of these institutions deliberately trying to mislead people by spreading misinformation?

Fake News Friday

In Biden’s Inaugural Speech, he said he is “all about unification”. Does anyone see how he could actually do it? Essentially half of voting Americans supported Donald Trump. What conciliatory gestures is he offering to bring unity and calm? Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr have ideas; but Biden doesn’t seem to really be interested. Instead, he is willing to let the Senate Democrats continue to engage in a totally unconstitutional “impeachment” of a private citizen, which will definitely not help bring “unity” to the Nation.

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, discuss the entertainment at the Inauguration, from Lady Gaga and Garth Brooks to the Poet Laureate.

It is commonly thought — because of the propaganda spread in the media — that “The Rich” are really evil and that they are what the Republican Party stands for. No. It is the Democrat Party which now is controlled by the truly rich people in America. Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone explain.

Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) dared to question whether or not several States followed their own election laws in 2020, and the Cancel Culture retaliated by “blacklisting” him. Simon & Schuster even backed out of a deal to publish his upcoming book, "The Tyranny of Big Tech" which is a critical study of Big Tech, including Facebook and Google! While this Cancel Culture has been building strength, in recent weeks, it has really gotten more aggressive. The publishing industry seems to be collectively agreeing to consider refusing to publish books from anyone who worked in the Trump Administration. They are apparently committed to suppressing ideas they personally do not like. The Bright Spot is Regnery Publishing, owned by Salem Media Group, has agreed to publish Sen. Hawley’s book.

Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr discuss the political environment of the Nation on this day of our peaceful transfer of power. It is one thing to disagree on matters of party, but it is not acceptable to be so extreme as we are today. Polarization is harmful. It more likely exists when one rival politician is though of as dishonest, if not outright evil, while the other is considered to be without character flaws. Biden has started his Presidency using Obama’s “Old Playbook”. Doing so may make his base happy, but sadly will not help to reduce the polarization in the Nation.

Yes, Joe Biden is the President of the United States, and as our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, explain, we must always respect the Office of the President. Rooting against the President is the same as rooting against the United States itself. Even though we may not have voted for him and even though we may not respect him, we need to be praying for our current President to do well and to protect the nation of the United States of America.

Stephen Parr’s analysis of Joe Biden’s Inaugural Speech shows some hopeful moments; but there were some rather dark points as well. Essentially, it is not going to be a beginning of American healing because Biden was willing to ignore major crime and violence done in the name of liberalism while calling out such problems done by extremists on the right.

Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone ponder the past presidents and their rankings in history. As time moves on, their successes and failures as Presidents take on a different understanding and evaluation. So where is Donald Trump likely going to end up on that Presidential ranking in the future?

Louis Avallone says it is a miracle! Donald Trump finally gave the Democrats reason to embrace fencing! Stephen Parr, however, points out that the Democrat fencing is in the wrong place. Trump wanted to protect Americans from really evil people trying to come in from the south for very illegal purposes. The Democrats want to be surrounded by fencing inside the Capitol to protect themselves from the American people. “If representative government is representing The People, it never has any reason to fear The People.”

More Cancel Culture! "My Pillow" products have been dropped by Bed, Bath, and Beyond and by Kohls because of Mike Lindell politics and contacts with Donald Trump. Fortunately you can still easily buy them online!

Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, apparently are not in agreement with the newest “racist” attack from the extreme, intolerant left — that of being linguistically racist if you cannot understand someone with a thick accent. And they do have a lot to say about it, too!

Following certain points in history, American lives have changed. Stephen Parr explains how some things are likely to change post-COVID. How we work at our jobs will be different than it was. More people living in blue states will continue to move out and settle in red states, and he cites a NYT article, “They Can’t Leave the Bay Area Fast Enough”, to support this idea. But are the new residents going to continue their voting habits of electing people who institute proven failed governmental policies from where they just left?

Too many of our problems coming from the Environmental Protection Agency have been because they are not following true science where the reporting scientists are required to “show their work”. That no longer can be the case because of a very important, permanent rule change at the EPA.

Two Inspiring Stories: Texas Governor Abbott is most offended that the incoming Biden questioned the loyalty of the members of the Texas Guard, and then the show closes with a very inspirational, feel good story from professional sports.
