🚨 AMERICA IS BROKE? Treasury Report SHOCKS — What It Means for YOU 🚨

Is the United States actually… broke?

A bombshell Treasury report for fiscal year 2025 reveals a staggering reality: $6.06 trillion in assets vs. $47.78 trillion in liabilities. That’s not just a gap—it’s a warning sign. And yet, almost no one in mainstream media is talking about it.

So what does this really mean for your future?

Social Security, national spending, and generational wealth are all on the line. If you’re Gen X, Millennials, or Gen Z, this isn’t abstract—it’s personal.

Meanwhile, headlines are focused elsewhere…

Actor Alan Ritchson is caught in a heated confrontation, but newly released body cam footage may flip the narrative completely. Did the neighbor push things too far—and will it change public opinion?

And beyond politics and viral drama, something deeper is happening. Online hate is everywhere. Even major stars are saying it’s getting unbearable—one Oscar-nominated actor now admits he doesn’t even want to leave his house because of it. What does that say about us?

We’re breaking down all of it—unfiltered.

This time on CodeWACK!

Why are there middlemen in Medicaid—and what are they doing to our most vulnerable patients and physicians? How and why are private insurance intermediaries permitted to put profits ahead of patients? A recent report by Physicians for a National Health Program, titled Removing the Middlemen from Medicaid, pulls back the curtain on Managed Care Organizations (MCOs).

To learn more, we spoke with Dr. Alankrita Olson, a public health physician and advocate for a universal single-payer system. She serves on the board of Physicians for a National Health Program and works to protect and expand healthcare access for all Americans. This is the first episode of a two-part series.

🔥 “Alan Ritchson Fight Video EXPOSED + America Has ZERO Consequences? | Nevada Reality Check”

Why does it feel like in America… no one is held accountable anymore?

A viral video shows “Reacher” star Alan Ritchson in a violent altercation with a neighbor—but the truth is more complicated than the headlines.

👉 Reports say the fight started after a dispute over alleged speeding in the neighborhood, with the neighbor confronting him and tensions escalating 

👉 But sources close to Ritchson claim the neighbor got aggressive first—running into the street and even pushing him off his bike before the punches were thrown 

So what’s the reality? And why does everyone rush to judgment instantly?

⸻

💥 Because we live in a country with no real repercussions anymore.

• People provoke, attack, insult—online and in real life

• Leaders act without consequences

• Violence gets excused, ignored, or politicized

And somehow…

👉 It feels like the only people who face consequences… are the ones not causing the damage.

⸻

🌵 Meanwhile—Nevada: Boomtown or Breakdown?

They say Nevada is thriving.

Jobs. Growth. No state income tax.

But look closer:

• Education ranks near the bottom

• Healthcare is among the worst in the U.S.

• Only ~30% of residents have a college degree

• Many people are struggling despite a “booming” economy

👉 So what’s the truth?

A state that looks successful…

but isn’t delivering for the people living in it.

'BradCast' 3/23/2026: FCC Chair Approves Unlawful Media Mega-Merger, Undermines Media Diversity by Progressive Voices

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET.

Brad is first joined by Tim Karr, Senior Director of Strategy and Communications at 'Free Press,' a nonpartisan organization fighting for your rights to connect and communicate.

The two discuss the Ellison family, who are billionaire Trump donors, taking over CNN and TikTok as part of their acquisition and merger deal of Warner Bros.  They analyze how the Ellisons have turned CBS into a Trump-friendly right-wing news network, and the risks of the same happening to CNN and TikTok.

Finally, they talk about the problems that all of these large media consolidations are causing by creating a monopoly that also reports what the government in power wants them to, just like the autocracies in Russia and Hungary.

Then, Kim Scott, Publisher of 'DemList,' joins Brad to preview the third 'No Kings' protest, which will be taking place this Saturday, March 28th.  The protest aims to counter the Trump administration and his Dictator-like actions and messaging.  The first 'No Kings' protest attracted five million people across the nation, with the second including seven million participants. The organizers are aiming to make this the largest protest in American history.

They're also expecting 'No Kings Day' protests in as many as 30 other countries on Saturday, opposing the Trump administration's actions.

🔥 “ICE at Airports?! Trump’s Airline Chaos + Gas Prices SURGE | Is Flying Doomed?”

Is the U.S. about to make flying a nightmare?

Republicans are refusing to fund the TSA separately from ICE—and instead of negotiating, Trump is shifting blame and escalating the situation. Now there’s talk of ICE being sent into airports.

What does that mean for travelers?

Longer lines? Fear? Fewer people flying altogether?

👉 Could this actually cripple the airline industry in America?

⸻

💸 Meanwhile—gas prices are spiking fast.

Iran is threatening to shut down the Strait of Hormuz, which could send prices even higher. The global response? Silence.

Is this a strategic disaster?

Trump calls it a win—but everyday Americans are the ones paying the price.

'BradCast' 3/19/2026: New World Democracy Report Warns U.S. Facing 'Unprecedented Autocratization' Under Trump by Progressive Voices

🔥 Cesar Chavez EXPOSED? Hero or Villain | Trump, Israel War & LGBTQ Crackdown

Was Cesar Chavez a civil rights icon… or something far more complicated?

For decades, Cesar Chavez has been celebrated as a labor hero—fighting for migrant workers, transforming agriculture, and becoming a symbol of Latino empowerment. Schools, streets, and public buildings proudly carry his name.

But now, disturbing allegations are resurfacing—claims that challenge everything we thought we knew.

So what do we do when a “hero” may have a darker side?

Do we erase the legacy? Rename everything? Or face the uncomfortable truth that history is rarely clean?

And if we hold Chavez accountable—why not apply the same standard to powerful figures today?

👉 Meanwhile:

• Israel’s latest strike sends gas prices soaring overnight

• Trump escalates rhetoric, threatening massive destruction

• Is the U.S. already entangled in a widening war with Iran?

• 31 African nations criminalize LGBTQ identity—why now?

This episode connects the dots between power, hypocrisy, global conflict, and exported hate.

🎙️ Watch, react, and decide for yourself.
