Michael Harrison, founder and publisher of Talkers Magazine, joins Sam Bushman to discuss critical threats to the First Amendment from both sides of the political aisle. In this must-watch conversation, Harrison breaks down why late-night comedians deserve the same free speech protections as news commentators, how Trump's recent actions clash with conservative principles, and why the media's tribal warfare is destroying civil discourse in America.

Key topics covered:



• First Amendment under attack - why government regulation of political speech is dangerous regardless of party

• The blurred line between entertainment and journalism in modern media

• Why conservatives and liberals must defend each other's speech rights

• The death of civil debate and how to bring it back

• Tom Hartman's perspective on why conservatives won't debate anymore

• Harrison's incredible 36-year track record navigating left and right

This is a rare example of principled commentary on the state of free speech in America. Whether you lean left or right, this conversation will challenge you to think differently about protecting liberty for ALL voices.

Join Sam Bushman and The Big Mig brothers, Lance Migliaccio and George Balloutine, for a comprehensive analysis of President Trump's 2026 State of the Union address. We break down the key moments, policies, and political divisions that defined this historic speech.

???? What We Cover:

• Trump's economic message: inflation, gas prices, tariffs & the "big beautiful bill."

• Border security wins and the immigration enforcement crackdown

• The Federal Reserve problem and the case for honest money

• Why Democrats refused to stand for crime victims and American priorities

• Stock trading ban proposal targeting Nancy Pelosi and Congress

• Voter ID debate and election integrity concerns

• The accountability gap: Where are the arrests and prosecutions?

• JD Vance's role in stopping fraud and what needs to happen next

???? Key Takeaways:

Trump delivered a confident, pro-American address emphasizing "One Nation Under God" and putting American citizens first. While there were moments that should have unified the chamber—honoring crime victims and a young accident survivor- Democrats remained seated, exposing deep political divisions.

We discuss Trump's accomplishments on the border, his economic policies, including the controversial tariff strategy, and the frustrating lack of accountability for corruption and insider trading in Congress. Is Attorney General Pam Bondi doing enough? Why haven't we seen arrests related to election fraud or the Epstein files?

⚠️ Critical Issues Discussed:

• Federal Reserve and fiat currency problems
• Congressional dysfunction on both sides of the aisle
• The uniparty problem and why real change requires citizen action
• Digital currency backed by gold and silver
• Term limits vs. voter mobilization

In this episode of Liberty RoundTable, Sam Bushman delivers a principled constitutional analysis of the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act), challenging the conventional conservative position. While acknowledging the importance of election integrity, Sam argues against federal involvement in voter verification, warning that "giving them an inch, they'll take a mile."

Drawing parallels to Social Security's evolution from a safety net with "not to be used for identification purposes" to today's universal identifier, Sam demonstrates how government programs inevitably expand beyond their original scope. He reveals that 28% of US voter verifications already have no match at the Social Security Administration database, showing how federal systems are being merged without public consent.

The episode explores the dangerous trajectory of centralized databases—linking Social Security numbers, Real ID driver's licenses, IRS records, gun registrations, health records, and voting data—warning of a Chinese-style social credit system. Sam advocates for precinct-level voting control, same-day paper ballots, and local jurisdiction authority over elections.

Additional topics include CNN's viewership collapse (losing two-thirds of its audience since 2016), the Washington Post's massive layoffs, the unsustainable economics of legacy media, Tom Holman's immigration enforcement updates, FBI Director Kash Patel's investigation into the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping case, and US military deployment to Nigeria.

Call to Action:

Defend local control of elections! Contact your representatives and tell them to oppose the SAVE Act and any federal expansion into state election systems.

 Support precinct-level voting, same-day paper ballots, and transparent vote counting. Share this message with fellow patriots who value constitutional principles over political convenience. 

The fight for liberty requires vigilance against government overreach—even when it comes wrapped in good intentions. Stand for the Constitution, trust in God, and protect your freedoms before they're merged into a federal database.

In this explosive episode of Liberty Round Table, host Sam Bushman sits down with Sheriff Richard Mack (founder of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association) and author Ian Trottier to tackle the most pressing questions facing America today: Does the United States still have a functioning Constitution? Are we already in the midst of Civil War 2.0? And why aren't high-level government officials being held accountable for alleged treason?

What You'll Discover:

The conversation begins with a critical analysis of cultural division in America, examining how events like the Super Bowl halftime show reflect deeper fractures in our national identity. But the discussion quickly moves to far more serious territory.

The Constitutional Crisis:

Three perspectives converge on Judge Andrew Napolitano's haunting question: "Does the US still have a Constitution?" Sheriff Mack argues that pragmatically, both major parties violate the Constitution at will. Ian Trottier explains how the 14th Amendment and FDR's wartime acts fundamentally shifted constitutional authority. Sam Bushman offers a sobering cage-fight analogy—the Constitution exists but is being pummeled in the corner, hanging by a thread, while Americans fail to defend it.

High Stakes Treason:

Ian Trottier presents shocking allegations from his meticulously documented book, "High Stakes Treason: How John Brennan Sold Us Out for Cash." The discussion reveals:

• How former CIA Director John Brennan allegedly held illegal stocks in government contractors during the War on Terror
• Claims that Brennan intentionally sequestered critical intelligence for personal profit
• Connections between Brennan, the Russian collusion hoax, and potential Epstein links
• Why the statute of limitations may still allow for prosecution

Civil War 2.0:

The panel examines Brandon Smith's assertion that America has already entered a second civil war. With Minneapolis protests, political division reaching a fever pitch, and well-funded organizations pushing for social upheaval, the question isn't whether conflict is coming—it's whether we're already in it.

The Accountability Problem:

Why hasn't the Trump administration prosecuted high-level criminals? The discussion explores the difficult reality of playing defense against a deeply entrenched deep state, the risks of going on offense, and what it would take to actually drain the swamp. Sheriff Mack and the panel debate whether Trump is strategically protecting himself or missing a critical opportunity for justice.

Solutions and Action Steps:

• The vital role of constitutional sheriffs in maintaining peace and security
• Why the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and the IRS must be abolished
• How Americans can demand accountability at the local level
• The importance of restoring constitutional principles, county by county

Call to Action:

The time for armchair patriotism is over. This episode isn't just information—it's a wake-up call.

Here's what you can do right now:

1. Get Informed: Order Ian Trottier's book "High Stakes Treason" at HighStakesTreason.com and learn the documented evidence against John Brennan.
2. Join the Movement: Become a member of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association at CSPOA.org and support sheriffs who are standing up for constitutional principles.
3. Demand Accountability: Contact your representatives and demand investigations into the allegations discussed in this episode. Share this episode with everyone you know.
4. Take Local Action: Get involved at the precinct level. Demand paper ballots, same-day voting, and election integrity in your community.
5. Stand for the Constitution: Whether it's hanging by a thread or being pummeled in the corner, the Constitution needs Americans who will defend it. The question is: will you be one of them?

The deep state is counting on your silence. Prove them wrong. Share this episode, get the book, join CSPOA, and become part of the solution before it's too late.

Liberty isn't free—and it won't defend itself.

In this explosive episode, Sam Bushman tackles the biggest controversies shaking conservative media and politics. From Candace Owens' factually inaccurate attacks on the LDS Church to President Trump's questionable alliance with mainstream media at the Super Bowl, plus Congress's stunning betrayal of RFK Jr.'s health reforms and the Minneapolis immigration standoff—this show pulls no punches in exposing the truth behind the headlines.

Candace Owens Gets It Wrong on Mormons

Conservative commentator Candace Owens recently made waves with claims about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that simply aren't true. From alleging the Mormon church "owns Las Vegas" to misrepresenting church leadership and doctrine, Owens' commentary reflects a fundamental misunderstanding rather than an informed critique.

Sam Bushman, a lifelong member of the LDS Church, offers to sit down with Candace for an honest, fact-based conversation to separate truth from fiction. He challenges her to bring a panel of Mormon members, leaders, and even critics to discuss the church openly and candidly—because attacking any faith based on misinformation helps no one.

Trump's Mainstream Media Hypocrisy

President Trump sits down with NBC for an exclusive Super Bowl interview, giving special access to the very "enemy of the people" media he constantly criticizes. Why is Trump rewarding mainstream networks with White House access and Super Bowl coverage while ignoring the new media voices that actually supported him? Sam breaks down the hypocrisy of attacking the press one day, then partnering with them the next—all while promoting a halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, an artist who openly hates America.

Congress Betrays RFK Jr. and Trump

After months of RFK Jr. working to downsize the Department of Health and Human Services, cutting staff and consolidating offices, Congress has reversed course and restored all funding and staffing levels. President Trump signed the bill, effectively rejecting the efficiency reforms he and Kennedy championed. Both Republicans and Democrats are using their "constitutional power of the purse" to undermine the very changes they promised voters—proving once again that the swamp protects itself.

Minneapolis Mayor's Meltdown Over ICE

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey claims Operation Metro Surge is destroying his city's economy, costing $20 million per week. But Sam exposes the real issue: instead of working with ICE to remove criminal illegal aliens safely and efficiently through cooperation with local law enforcement, Frey would rather create chaos in the streets and blame Tom Homan. The solution isn't kicking ICE out—it's local and federal government working together to protect citizens while dealing justly with immigration enforcement.

Plus:

• Amazon scrambles to expand Melania Trump's documentary to more theaters after box office success
• Supreme Court allows California's gerrymandered maps to stand
• Why the Somali fraud scandal in Minnesota is the real story being ignored
• Tom Homan forced to show a "softer side" as two-thirds of Americans turn against enforcement

This is hard-hitting commentary you won't hear anywhere else. The networks refuse to tell you the truth—but Sam Bushman won't back down from exposing the clown show in Washington, the hypocrisy in media, and the solutions America desperately needs.

In this episode of Liberty Round Table's Honest Money Report, Sam Bushman and precious metals expert Heath Perkins tackle the mounting economic pressures facing Americans in 2026. With gold surging past $5,000 and silver hitting $82.71, the conversation explores why traditional currency continues to lose value while hard assets soar.

The discussion covers critical economic indicators: inflation cooling slightly but housing, food, and energy costs remaining stubbornly high; the Federal Reserve signaling interest rates will stay elevated; consumer debt hitting record levels; and the federal budget deficit widening to dangerous levels. Sam and Heath break down the manipulation of precious metals markets by institutions like JP Morgan and COMEX, revealing how paper contracts create artificial pricing while physical metal becomes increasingly scarce.

Heath explains why the gold-to-silver ratio matters, how the CPI has been manipulated for decades, and why nations are returning to gold-backed reserves. The conversation shifts to practical solutions: why 90% silver coins are currently a great buy, the importance of self-sufficiency, and how to protect your wealth with real commodities like precious metals, land, and food storage.

Sam also analyzes President Trump's controversial economic policies, including his proposal for 50-year mortgages and his stance on maintaining high housing prices—policies Sam argues will hurt first-time buyers and fail to address the underlying dishonest money system. The episode concludes with discussions on tariffs, the UN funding debate, and why returning to constitutional currency principles is the only long-term solution.
