Bold and Blunt

If you're sick and tired of all the sickly, tired talk of socialism in America, this is the episode for you. Socialism sucks, socialism in America sucks even worse, and Johan Norberg, a native Swede, has the inside, first-hand scoop on just why the left is wrong about pointing to Sweden as an example of successful socialism.

Democrats have been using the coronavirus in recent months to insist on widespread mail-in voting -- and there's a good reason for that: It's the way they win the White House. 'Cause it's rife with fraud. Hans von Spakovsky, an election expert with the Heritage Foundation, talks mail-in voting and Electoral College sense, and explains why the left is so bent on boosting the first; crippling the second.

Everywhere you look in America is darkness, bleakness, rioting over accusations of racism and anger. But it doesn't have to be that way. And Burgess Owens, an ex-NFL star and current candidate for Congress, says the real solutions for this country's future rest in going back in time to founding principles -- like putting politics secondary to faith in God.

Seattle Democrats are standing idly by as rioters and anarchists take over city streets. Leadership? Lacking. So here comes Wisconsin's former Republican governor, Scott Walker, who fought off massive angry mobs of teachers' unions in 2011 and now has some words of wisdom on how the left can actually steer calmly through the storm and -- get this: Do the jobs they were elected to do.

Democrats want to defund police. Antifa thugs want to dismantle police departments. But somewhere in all this talk about radical federalization of community police departments are true ideas of reform that could actually help all Americans -- not just special interests, not just Black Lives Matter. Bob McNamara, senior attorney with the Institute for Justice, shares.

Black Lives Matter was founded in 2013, and has since gone global. And if you think this social justice warring group is going away any time soon -- think again. BLM is here and here to stay, and it's in large part the fault of America's schools. So says Rebecca Friedrichs, a California public school teacher with amazing insights on where this violence in the streets is rooted.

Tired of all the executive orders being issued by governors? Tired of the overreach and unconstitutional rules placed on citizens' backs? So is Jenna Ellis, a constitutional attorney who serves as a legal adviser to President Donald Trump. Jenna offers advice on how to fight the executive powers, save the Constitution and return this nation to a state of Founding Father intent.

Members of the media would have it believed that America is unjust, the Constitution racist and police awaken each morning with visions of gleefully killing black men in their communities. It's all lies. As hero military veteran and former law enforcement official Mark Geist says, America has problems -- and Floyd was horrifically killed. But America's problems, he explains, are rooted largely in the national turn from God and individual accountability.

America's coming to a crossroads, due to COVID-19 government overreach, and in the coming days-weeks-months, we're going to have to decide whether we want a Constitution or communism. Liberty University president Jerry Falwell Jr. is taking a stand for freedom. "Liberals are Nazis" on free speech, he says -- and the time to fight grows short.

Government's got American citizens in its chokehold right now, due in large part to COVID-19 politics. So how to fight back? How to resist? Is the resistance even worthwhile? Historically speaking: Yes. And Craig Shirley, noted historian, best-selling author, and Ronald Reagan expert, weighs in on the government's over-the-top response to the coronavirus with some comforting words that put the crackdown in context.
