Col. Rob Maness is a military and counter terrorism expert with incredible experience in both strategy and in the field. He led numerous combat operations during his career, he was in the Pentagon during the 9/11 attack, and he is currently running for the State House of Representatives in Louisiana, where he is the leading candidate currently to win the seat.

In their conversation, they talk about the nation being divided when Washington, D.C. is not. Instead, Maness calls Washington the "Uni-Party" because it is led by people with similar values who are too focused on themselves rather than representing their constituents. Military leaders would be more ideal as political leaders because they tend to avoid the corruption that runs rampant through most parties.

Maness explains why, though he was reluctant, he decided to run for a political seat, what he hopes to bring to the office if he wins and how our listeners can help. Because he is truly conservative and a constitutionalist, Maness hasn't found support with party leaders.

They discuss the truth about our American nuclear defenses and the method Trump is using to deter outside attacks.

Also in the episode, Chuck and Mark consider the alarming rate of suicides surrounding the Clintons. If you haven't read Mark's article on the subject, visit https://bluntforcetruth.com/knowing-clintons-increase-odds-of-suicide-by-500/ in the Blunt Force Truth™ Trending News section.

Mark and Chuck discuss how the left is changing the meaning of powerful words, referencing a protest group that everyone should be aware of, Refuse Fascism. Mark reveals the open communist managing the organization - and a pretty shocking money trail keeping it alive. They also talk about the ridiculous monument that Obama had approved - which Trump shut down once he was in office.
