    PREZ: TURNIP'S NEW CLOTHES

    Tonight, we take a lighter look at national security through the lens of satire-because sometimes clarity cmes not from fear, but from humor. There's a story in the National Security Journal about a certain leader-we'll call him Turmip - who may have a problem. According to reporting,up to four hudred shoulder-fired anti0air-missiles are allegedly headed from China to Iran. Beijing denies it, of course. But the situation raises question, concerns, ad a few eyebrows.

    PREZ: WHAT'S MORE DANGEROUS THAN POLITICS TO YA'LL RETIREMENT?

    Turn on the news and ya'll hear politicians warning that the other side is going to destroy y'll savings. According to financial experts, many retirees face threats that are already here. Health care costs. Long-term care. Fraud and scams. While political debates dominate headlines, the bigger question may be this: Are we preparing for the risks we already know are coming?

  • CORRUPTION OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT

    PREZ: CORRUPTION WITHIN THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT

    Today's story isn't simply about one billionaire, one lawyer, or one president. It's about trust. According to reporting discussed by multiple national news organizations, Venezuelan billionaire Julio Herrera Velutini received a Prez pardon after members of his family entered into a deal reportedly worth more than $50 million with Alina Habba, a former attorney for Prez. Habba has publicly denied any role in obtaining the pardon, and has called suggestions of a communication false. Now, let's be clear. A Prez pardon is legal. The Constitution gives press broad authority to grant clemency The question is not whether a pardon can be granted. The question is whether the American people believe access influence, money and connections are becoming more important than equal justice under the law.

    PREZ: THE GREAT GOLF COURSE TREE CUT-DOWN

    Prez is the show where politics, landscaping and urgency all gather in the same wheelbarrow and head downhill without breaks. Today's headline comes from the nation's capital, where a federal judge is reportedly examining claims that the administration moved with remarkable speed to remove hundreds of trees that had previously been order protected. It's curious because our government projects move at the speed of a sleepy turtle filing paperwork during a holiday weekend. What changed?

  • PREZ CONTROLS THE MILITARY-BUT 535 LAWMAKERS FROM CONGRESS CAN STOP HIM

    PREZ: THE PREZ CONTROLS THE MILITARY..BUT 535 LAWMAKERS CAN STILL STOP HIM

    Americans hear that the Prez is the Commanded-in-Chief. But that phrase hides a deeper truth: the Prez commands the military, but Congress controls the power behind it. Our Founders designed it that way deliberately to prevent any one leader from becoming too powerful. It was designed that way. Never again would America have a king. They built a government with three branches: Congress wrote laws, controls money, declares war; The Prez enforces laws, commands the military, and the Supreme Cout who interprets laws and checks both branches. Each branch designed to challenge limit, and restrain the others. Not politely. Intentionally!
