We were all sick of the laptop class during the Biden years gaslighting working Americans into thinking the economy was just fine and inflation was transitory. Well, now we have Con Inc. commentators who earn a lucrative living off gaslighting you that inflation has been solved, deficits don’t affect you, and the BBB is the greatest bill ever. These people literally do not believe in a word they say so long as their people get into office. Today, I cut through the lies and false choices surrounding the economy, fiscal issues, and the budget reconciliation bill. Bookmark today’s show as your one-stop resource for debunking every lie put out by the establishment. I also offer a way to defend voting for the bill without lying about it, but there is a reason why its defenders won’t make an honest argument.

We begin today by celebrating Trump’s travel ban but also cautioning that he needs to expand it beyond data-sharing to vetting Sharia, anti-American beliefs. Next, we’re joined by economist Brian Wesbury for a discussion about inflation and the Trump reconciliation bill. Wesbury cuts through the gaslighting and excuses to show that the bill fails to deal with the fundamental issue of our time. Republicans have failed to convey to the American people how welfare and entitlements are both responsible for inflation and also depressing income. He offers us a crash course in economics that Republicans in Congress can sure use. He also believes that they are going about the tax cuts in a way that will not produce the growth they think it will.

Today, we discuss three aspects of Trump’s original campaign promises from 2015 on immigration that he has ignored this time: a ban on Muslim immigration, a ban on Chinese immigration, and serious reforms to worker visas undermining American workers. Today, I explain that in light of the Boulder terrorist and the rise of anti-Semitism, Trump has a greater rationale and mandate for a moratorium than ever before. Also, with more Chinese spies arrested, why are we not cutting off visas from China? Finally, the tech worker visa fraud is so indefensible that even Democrats can’t defend it. It is becoming clear that the Big Tech and Arab money are wielding too much influence over Trump 2.0.

Today, I offer a deep-dive diagnosis of what is ailing conservative media and how it seeps into administration policy. What you’re supposed to do is craft talking points in pursuit of fixed policy objectives. Instead we craft policies to fit ephemeral talking points. We develop cults of personality, mannerisms, subcultures, and vapid parlance. Those influencing these trends become the cool kids — most of whom are being paid off. I explain how this trend is influencing foreign policy and social policy at the same time and tie it to the Glenn Greenwald scandal. We have unbelievable momentum against the homosexual agenda, yet the fake Right is trying to subvert and inhibit that momentum. Also, there is a constant struggle on vaccines, and this is borne out by the conflicting guidance we are seeing from the CDC this week. We have a choice: We can lead to heaven or follow to hell.

We begin today’s show with a look at the courts and how all three Trump SCOTUS appointees continue to subvert the agenda, despite throwing us a few bones on the most egregious lower-court rulings. We’re joined by Andy Roth, president of the State Freedom Caucus Network, for an analysis of what went wrong and right with this year’s legislative sessions. He points out that where the Freedom Caucuses were already large, such as Wyoming and South Dakota, we’re already achieving policy victories. Where they are smaller, we are still in the exposure phase, which is important. He also has important advice for conservatives running for legislature and how they must not allow themselves to get bribed into doing bad things based on promises to move their legislation. Finally, we go round-robin across the country and analyze the opportunity to get better governors in key red states.

We’re at another crossroads. There is a growing sense on the Right that we have not solved the inflation and deportation issues. The question is will we make the right plays to achieve them. This begins with a recognition that unless we ignore the courts or strip their jurisdiction in must-pass legislation, this presidency is doomed. Next, we’re joined by Alex Pollock, a banking expert at the Mises Institute, who warns that not only have we failed to solve inflation, but some of the current proposals from both parties will further exacerbate it. He explains how the Federal Reserve keeps a Ponzi scheme paid for by consumers in the form of high prices. He also believes that the Fed is fully controlled by Congress and not independent. Relatedly, Pollock believes that complaining about interest rates is addressing the symptom of the very problems created by the "easy money" cartel. Also, he believes it is a mistake to turn Freddie and Fannie back into venture socialist GSE status, which allows for crony private profit off the risk of taxpayers. More easy money and subsidized credit are what got us here; they sure won’t solve inflation.

The good news is that Con Inc. finally realizes that we are not accomplishing what we need to. The bad news is that Con Inc. people fail to see that they are the problem.  Today, I debunk all of the myths around low expectations for budget reconciliation, budget bills, discretionary vs. mandatory spending, and why their defense of the big, ugly bill is built upon a series of false premises. The bottom line is that Trump needs to be pressured to focus on the right issues, leverage points, primaries, and legislative fights.  Rather than doing so, Con Inc. people treat him like a god, which allows Trump to support the RINOs. Then they complain when nothing happens and are left with nothing but the secret sauce of losers: excuses.

On today’s special Memorial Day show, we’re joined by Patriot Academy's Rick Green, who co-hosts from his campus in the room with the replica of the Texas House of Representatives. In a freewheeling discussion, we talk about the young American Right becoming increasingly like the European Right — reactionary and pained by the Left but with no biblical and constitutional foundation to direct the momentum. He explains the myriad programs offered at Patriot Academy to train youngsters into the legislative process built upon biblical and founding values. It’s time to live biblical conservatism rather than meme off it.

First, we tackle the latest cases in the Supreme Court. The justices are behaving exactly as I predicted — giving Trump small victories on issues that should never be adjudicated while allowing lower courts to mow down the core of his agenda. Relying on the Supreme Court is a fool’s errand. Next, we’re joined by Dr. Lynn Fynn, one of our hero COVID doctors, who warns us that the new administration is being subversive on COVID vaccines. Although the new guidance appears to be incremental approval at the surface level, if you look at the guidance and accompanying statements, it is actually a limited hangout designed to cement the core of the respiratory viral vaccine agenda. Officials refuse to recognize safety issues, negative efficacy, viral immune escape, and DNA contamination, just to mention a few. Dr. Fynn also believes this is emblematic of a broader problem of the medical freedom movement getting hijacked by hucksters.

Republicans passed their most important bill of the decade in middle of the night with shame and subterfuge. We’re joined by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.), who takes a sledgehammer to the entire message, vision, and objective of the bill. He criticizes his House colleagues for missing the main goal of reducing deficits driving inflation. Johnson shows how everything surrounding this bill is rhetoric vs. reality. He also updates us on his investigation into vaccine injury, and he now has proof that the government knew about young athletes dying of myocarditis and purposely declined to issue a public warning. He provides the vision on health care and spending that Republicans either don’t believe in or are too scared to articulate. Johnson is promising to force a course correction on the bill.
