Bold and Blunt

When it comes to rooting out the biggest health risks of the coronavirus and all its various variants, turns out, it's obesity that's the problem -- not the failure of citizens to wear face masks, not the reluctance of Americans to social distance, not the refusal of patriots to stay home, stay out of work, stay away from church. If you look at the real facts, the real data, the real science, it's obesity that is the serious coronavirus concern, the one driving COVID-19-tied hospitalizations and serious illnesses and deaths. So why are Democrats in safely, solidly Democrat-run states continuing to push ridiculous non-scientific and overly abusive policies like face mask mandates on school kids? Answer: Politics and power. Guest best-selling author Michael Betrus talks about the coronavirus data he's crunched over the last couple years, and in so doing, exposes the very many COVID lies of the left's continued lockdowns.

President Joe Biden says he's a uniter, bent on bringing America back from what he characterized on the campaign trail as the darkness of the Donald Trump administration. But his rhetoric is divisive; his politics are divisive; his policies are divisive; and even his fellow Democrat Party members are horrified at his speeches. Americans aren't fooled into thinking Biden is uniting the country, rather than dividing. Poll after poll after poll shows his job approval is sinking. So how to survive another three years of this administration? Philip Howard, founder of a group called Common Good, thinks he has some solutions for Americans weary of the divisiveness and ready for common ground solutions.

The U.S. Supreme Court told Joe Biden to take a hike on vaccine mandates for private citizens working in the private sector, but said OK to the same being forced on hospital workers whose places of employment take federal tax dollars. What's wrong with this picture? Simply put: Neither case fully upholds the idea of rights coming from God -- the very premise upon which this nation was built, the very ideal that makes this country exceptional. How come private-sector employees are considered private citizens, worthy of God-given rights, but nurses working for certain hospitals are not? These are perilous times, if the standard for individual rights is based on how much federal funding enters the picture. Dave Kubal, president of Intercessors for America, talks about how citizens should react to these cases, and explains why prayer is the building block of all the nation's freedoms.

Remember when America wasn't ruled by fear? If you're sick, stay home. If you're not feeling well, stay home. If you're not sick, however, go live your life. That's a much-forgotten common-sense idea these days, due in large part to the left's exploitation of the coronavirus for political reasons. So where did all this allowance for the political class to clamp individual rights come from, anyway? Emergency use authorizations, the justification for speedy approvals of vaccines, and the root of much of today's coronavirus crazy causes, hearkens back to George W. Bush days. But the abuse of EUAs must stop. America must return to freedom. Columnist and home-schooling mom Bethany Mandel weighs in and discusses the insanity that's taken over U.S. government.

Democrats aren't just trying to win political elections. They're trying to win political elections so they can utterly destroy all that makes America great. And they're doing so even as they deny doing so. Truly, what is in the minds of Democrats who use January 6 as cause to show all conservatives as violent thugs and who tie January 6 imagery to election reform so as to make it seem as those who oppose the federal takeover of ballot boxes are only conservative violent thugs? That's how Michelle Obama is approaching the issue. That's the messaging she's trying to promote while entering politics and calling for mass registration of voters who will then demand complete revamping of America's voting system. Dr. Carole Lieberman, a forensic psychiatrist and best-selling author, weighs in on the insanities within the Democrats' minds.

Democrats have nothing on which to campaign. They're losing favor with the public, they're losing favor with the all-important independents, they're losing favor even with members of their own party. Joe Biden's poll numbers are in the dumper, and falling even dumpier. And Afghanistan is still a massive problem for them because even non-political types in America understand that it's just not morally proper to abandon and betray citizens and allies. So what do Democrats do in order to keep their hopes for election wins alive? Point fingers about January 6. Point fingers about the coronavirus. Point fingers about climate change. And point fingers at Donald Trump and Donald Trump supporters. Kash Patel, former Trump administration official, speaks of his own testimony before the January 6 commission, and of Biden's failures, of which there are many.

Is America headed on a crash course toward socialist disaster? Can prayer save the country? These are the questions that are on the minds of God-fearing, constitutionally minded, conservative constituents around the nation who see what's taking place under Joe Biden, who see how the left and the globalists and the Marxists are gaining ground and who wonder: Is it too late for America? Matthew Lohmeier, former Space Force commander, was fired for sounding the alarms on Marxism in the military and he's here to discuss.

The number of Christians being persecuted around the world has risen substantially between 2019 and now and it's due largely from COVID-19-related reasons. That's the finding of a recent religious watchdog group's report. And religious persecution isn't just happening in other countries. America has been seeing its own increased incidents of persecution of Christians, of Jews, of Muslims. If religious freedom is the foundation of freedom, this upward trend of persecution is alarming. Sam Brownback, former Kansas governor and U.S. senator, and ex-ambassador at-large for international religious freedom, discusses.

This Joe Biden administration has taken the cell phone and pen playbook of governance from the previous Barack Obama administration and run it down the field, and American citizens are in great peril of losing their God-given liberties. The coronavirus mandates have given the White House seeming carte blanche to use so-called science to exert massive clampdowns. Biden, meanwhile, is telling outright lies about the unvaccinated, and using these deceptions to push for more and more clampdowns on liberties. Guest Jonathan Emord, a constitutional attorney and author who's taken on the federal government many times in court -- and won -- discusses.

Democrats won't quit on the January 6 investigation. Why not? They can't leave any America First spirit intact. It's a threat to their rule; it's an offense to their leftist agendas. So Democrats on Capitol Hill are busily pretending they're investigating criminal acts that threaten national security all as a means of dragging before the media the key players in the Donald Trump administration who've been bold in their own America First views -- people like Mark Meadows, Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro. Today's guest, Navarro, discusses.
