A single claim on a debate stage can snowball fast. We open with a charged Albuquerque mayoral moment, a televised fact-check, and a deeper question about access: when homelessness consumes a city’s attention and budget, who gets to see what’s really happening inside the shelters we fund? From there we trace how a New Mexico judge’s reading of the state constitution could collide with the U.S. Supreme Court’s Grants Pass ruling, reshaping encampment enforcement, due process, and the daily life of residents and businesses—especially where drug use and pedestrian risk already run high.

Zooming out, we follow the incentives behind a grinding federal shutdown. Why would one party press for a clean continuing resolution and the other resist it despite the pressure from unpaid workers? We unpack the polling, the blame game, and why modern presidents lean on executive orders when Congress stalls—creating a cycle where rules swing every few years and cities struggle to plan. We also challenge a viral political ad that blames tariffs for $25 fair food, contrasting it with retailer data showing holiday basket prices returning toward 2019 levels. The real drivers behind sticky grocery inflation aren’t as simple as a slogan.

Along the way, we scrutinize a proposed ICE tracker that could endanger agents amid rising attacks, debate how to balance enforcement with treatment and shelter capacity, and call for basic transparency: public bed counts, performance dashboards, and access with privacy safeguards. It’s a candid tour through local politics, constitutional law, shutdown strategy, and the economics shaping your daily life.

Albuquerque stands at a crossroads—and the numbers don’t mince words. With crime and homelessness topping voter concerns and an incumbent polling under 30%, a runoff looks all but certain. We sit down with Darren White to parse the real levers of change: how to rebuild proactive policing, restore confidence in APD, and confront encampments with a plan that blends services and clear enforcement. No buzzwords, no techno-fixes-as-substitutes—just the tradeoffs, timelines, and leadership choices that move outcomes.

We get specific about what “day one” would look like on encampments, why recruitment can’t be outsourced to billboards or generic incentives, and how leadership culture—from the chief on down—sets the tone for response times, clearance rates, and community trust. The conversation also wades into the National Guard’s role as a force multiplier (and what deployment should and shouldn’t be), plus a candid reaction to the mayor’s latest ad and the claim that media coverage is the problem. On policy fault lines, we break down the sanctuary amendment that would have shared data with ICE on violent charges and trafficking, and why that vote became a litmus test for public safety priorities.

Campaign mechanics matter too. With a six-person field, limited public financing, and a low-information electorate weeks out, targeting is king: older voters, read mail, watch debates, and reward clarity. We talk debate criteria, who made the stage, and how one or two votes—on sanctuary policy or guaranteed basic income—can redraw the map in a tight race. If you’re weighing whether Albuquerque stays the course or resets on crime and homelessness, this conversation gives you the receipts, the stakes, and the likely paths to November.

A union boss tried to turn a beloved New Mexico tradition into a political weapon—and we’re not having it. We unpack the “prison patch” smear aimed at McCall’s Pumpkin Patch, separate rumor from reality, and talk about what’s really at stake when activists target family businesses to score points. It’s a case study in how online outrage travels, how local news stepped in to correct it, and why communities should back builders over destroyers.

From there, we head into the Albuquerque mayoral race, where crime and homelessness dominate the polls. We analyze Darren White’s hard-hitting ad, Tim Keller’s incumbent playbook, and why a “good ideas, better execution” message from Alex Ubayas falls flat when voters are begging for real change. If you want to win, you have to talk about what people feel on their block—safety, public order, and visible disorder—and offer concrete steps, not abstractions.

Then a wild media moment: Katie Porter’s interview meltdown and the aftermath. We walk through how a few minutes of friction with a local reporter triggered a prediction market swing, revived old staff clips, and raised the bigger question—can you govern if you can’t handle follow-ups? We also scan tight races in New Jersey and Virginia, where endorsements, standards, and cost-of-living politics are reshaping odds. Finally, we tackle the government shutdown, the Senate math behind it, and a heated JD Vance–George Stephanopoulos exchange that spotlights the gap between media priorities and what families are actually dealing with.

Chaos doesn’t just appear—it’s invited. We bring on former San Juan County Sheriff Ken Christensen to dig into how policy choices and political signals ripple into street-level realities, from cashless bail in New Mexico to nightly unrest outside ICE facilities in Portland. Ken shares why he left, what changed during his time away, and why he’s running again to restore order, support officers, and make communities feel safe walking to the grocery store.

We trace the timeline from the 2016 bail reform pitch to the 2017 rollout and the unintended consequences that followed: repeat offenders back on the street, rising recidivism, and a spike in officer-involved shootings. Then we zoom out to the national scene—local leaders discouraging police response, protests turning violent while officers watch from the curb, and federal agents forced to manage situations locals won’t touch. Ken doesn’t mince words on how leadership affects morale and outcomes: when rules are soft and rhetoric is incendiary, people test boundaries, and everyday residents pay the price.

We also tackle the thorny questions: Should local police assist federal agencies like ICE? What happens when cities operate hotlines to tip off neighborhoods about federal enforcement? How do we recruit and retain good officers after years of “defund” narratives and legal uncertainty? Ken outlines concrete moves—restore qualified immunity protections, reduce red tape that punishes proactive policing, target repeat offenders consistently, and invest in the support roles and technology that actually solve crimes.

If you care about public safety, police morale, crime policy, and what it takes to rebuild trust, this conversation pulls no punches and offers a road map. Listen, share with a friend who cares about safer streets, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

A quiet Albuquerque morning explodes with color as hundreds of hot air balloons drift past our backyard—and then we tackle the issues weighing our city and country back to earth. We start with the glossy claims in a high-profile mayoral ad and the real scoreboard on crime, homelessness, and empty shelter beds. From there, we explain why debate thresholds exist, how polling and fundraising shape access to the stage, and what voters actually gain when formats keep the focus on candidates with a credible path.

Then we pull the thread on policy that looks busy but solves little. The recent special session delivered small wins, yet dodged the crises people feel daily: a statewide doctor shortage, brutal malpractice premiums, and long waits for basic care. We bring receipts—poll numbers showing appointment bottlenecks across ages, plus a New Mexico addiction specialist whose clean record couldn’t keep him insured. Without tort reform and interstate licensure for telehealth, we’re choosing lawsuits over lifesaving care.

We widen the lens to national politics, dissecting the “clean CR” standoff, the optics no one is winning, and the cold calculus of timing pain versus shutting down government. Accountability matters locally, too: we examine a stunning Virginia attorney general scandal involving violent rhetoric and why character should be non-negotiable for a state’s top law enforcement job. Finally, we challenge media narratives that downplay citywide disorder as “one block,” arguing for compassionate accountability over “suicidal empathy” that leaves residents unprotected.

A funding lapse in Washington sets the stage, but the real story is how power, process, and language shape outcomes—from the Senate’s 60‑vote math to a New Mexico special session that narrows what gets debated. We open by decoding the shutdown: why a seven‑week continuing resolution stalled, how polling and precedent drive the blame game, and why markets shrugged while politicians postured. Then we zoom into Santa Fe, where a fast‑tracked agenda centers on health policy—especially a quiet but consequential shift that would remove CDC ACIP as the reference for school immunization schedules and lean on the state health department and the American Academy of Pediatrics. We unpack what that means for scientific independence, conflicts of interest, and public trust, and make the case for more—not fewer—credible voices in the room.

From statehouse to city hall, we tackle Albuquerque’s sanctuary city status. Polling shows majority support when the policy is framed as non‑cooperation “except when required by law,” but a mayoral order adding a hotline to alert residents about ICE activity raises safety and operational concerns. We connect those dots to voters’ top anxieties—crime and homelessness—and explore how perceptions of safety track party identity more than daily reality, complicating honest problem‑solving.

Campaign sparks fly in the Democratic gubernatorial primary over policy authorship, reminding us that voters care less about who wrote a plan and more about who can deliver measurable results. The temperature spikes again when a state representative compares ICE to the KKK—rhetoric condemned by law enforcement and flagged here for what it is: reckless. We close with a practical bright spot—drug pricing reforms tied to most‑favored‑nation benchmarks and a “Trump RX” fallback that could drive substantial savings for Medicare, Medicaid, and consumers if implemented with transparency and competition in mind.

The political landscape in New Mexico is heating up with the Democratic gubernatorial race between Deb Haaland and Sam Bregman taking center stage. What started as a relatively quiet contest has evolved into a strategic battle of positioning, with Holland's team landing the first significant blow by exposing plagiarized content in Bregman's ambitious 189-page policy document. This exchange perfectly illustrates their competing approaches: Bregman aggressively seeking debates while Haaland maintains a more measured stance, highlighting the authenticity questions that may plague her opponent.

Albuquerque's mayoral race presents another fascinating political study. While incumbent Tim Keller leads in the polls with 29% support against former Sheriff Darren White's 16%, the numbers reveal potential vulnerability. With 60% of voters saying "it's time for someone else" and undecided voters outnumbering Keller supporters, the race could be headed for a competitive runoff where Keller's underwater favorability rating might prove decisive.

The healthcare crisis in New Mexico continues to deepen, with a controversial op-ed by attorney Brian Cologne defending trial lawyers while seemingly ignoring the devastating impact of the state's regulatory environment on healthcare access. As one listener pointedly asked: what good is having powerful lawyers when families can't find doctors to treat their sick children? This tension between legal accountability and healthcare accessibility represents one of the state's most pressing challenges.

On the national front, Portland's handling of protests around ICE facilities highlights a troubling prioritization of political positioning over public safety. Despite ranking as America's second most dangerous city, local officials reject federal assistance while simultaneously failing to provide adequate local police protection to affected neighborhoods, leaving residents to fend for themselves amid nightly violence.

We also explore the Trump administration's focus on potential links between Tylenol and autism, the looming government shutdown negotiations, and even tackle the surprisingly complex question of appropriate wedding gift amounts in 2023. From political showdowns to practical advice, this episode offers a comprehensive look at the issues shaping our communities and nation.

The dangerous intersection of inflammatory rhetoric and real-world violence takes center stage in this urgent analysis of America's deepening political divide. We examine the recent shooting at a Dallas ICE facility that left two migrants dead, where the FBI quickly identified an ideological motive with shell casings marked "anti-ICE." Yet mainstream media continues to obscure these clear motivations, creating a dangerous environment where accountability becomes impossible and violence continues unchecked.

As political figures adopt increasingly extreme language—from Gavin Newsom demanding ICE agents "unmask" to New Mexico Senator Joe Cervantes comparing ICE to the KKK—we're witnessing leadership that validates rather than calms extremist viewpoints. This pattern repeats across virtually every issue facing Americans today.

Drawing from personal experience as parents of a child with autism, we dive into the Trump administration's announcement of research linking prenatal Tylenol use to autism. Despite being backed by studies from Harvard and Johns Hopkins, this potentially groundbreaking information was immediately framed as "misinformation" by political opponents, demonstrating how tribal politics now trumps scientific inquiry and public health.

The politicization extends to healthcare access in New Mexico, where bipartisan efforts to address doctor shortages through interstate medical compacts are being blocked by powerful trial lawyers in the state senate. Even Google has admitted to censoring Americans at the Biden administration's request regarding COVID-19 information that has since been proven accurate.

What makes this episode particularly compelling is how it connects these seemingly disparate issues to reveal a fundamental breakdown in American discourse. When politics infects every aspect of life—from medical research to basic healthcare access—citizens suffer while special interests thrive. Join us as we cut through the noise and examine how we might begin healing this dangerous divide.
