In this episode of Liberty RoundTable Live, Sam Bushman takes listeners inside Turning Point USA’s America Fest, sharing firsthand reflections on the largest gathering in the event’s history. With over 31,000 attendees, the conference was a powerful convergence of young and old, united by a shared commitment to God, family, and country—even as it faced moments of division and discord.

Sam explores the legacy of Charlie Kirk and the unifying spirit he brought to the movement, contrasting it with the challenges of maintaining civility in today’s polarized climate. Drawing from his own “Clarion Call for Civility” and the newly launched “Campaign for Civility,” Sam urges listeners to seek understanding, respect, and kindness above all.

A highlight of the episode is Sam’s account of Erika Kirk’s inspiring leadership and heartfelt guidance to the next generation. Erika’s emphasis on character, faith, and the value of every individual shines through as she addresses questions from young people about life, relationships, and personal growth. Sam also spotlights other notable voices, including Riley Gaines, and reflects on the importance of forgiveness, mentorship, and the enduring principles that bind us together.

Listeners will hear about the unique openness of America Fest, where even protesters were given a voice, and where faith in God was a central theme across diverse backgrounds. Sam and guest Dr. Scott Bradley discuss the risks of division, the need for discernment, and the foundational role of the Constitution and godly principles in America’s future.

In this compelling episode, William Simpson II—founder and director of the Wild Horse Fire Brigade—joins Liberty RoundTable Live to share his journey from ranch life to wilderness advocate. Learn how wild horses naturally reduce wildfire fuels, reseed and fertilize the land, and support the delicate balance of our ecosystems.

Through in-depth discussion, Simpson exposes the mismanagement of public lands by government agencies, the economic and ecological consequences of removing wild horses, and the mounting costs—both human and financial—of ignoring nature’s own solutions.
