You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for December 10, 2025.
0:30 We dig into what might be the political and economic turning point of our generation — the moment tariffs go from heresy to orthodoxy inside the Republican Party. For decades, the conservative establishment worshiped at the altar of free trade. Tariffs were the villain, protectionism was a dirty word, and anyone who questioned NAFTA got sent to the kids’ table. Not anymore.
With new polling showing a full revolt inside the GOP — two-thirds of Republicans now wanting tariffs kept where they are or pushed even higher — we break down how Trump didn’t just shift the debate… he blew up the old economic playbook entirely.
9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.
- The ban on transgender members of the US Military is constitutional. That's the ruling of the US Appeals court for the District of Columbia.
- 12 fired FBI agents are suing the Trump Administration to get their jobs back.
- Two courts have now agreed to unseal several documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.

13:00 We break down a move from the Trump administration that has the media scrambling for cover: a brand-new public database from DHS called WOW — Worst of the Worst — a tool that finally exposes what legacy outlets have spent years trying to bury. For the first time, any American can pull up the rap sheets of criminal illegal aliens arrested and removed by ICE, cutting straight through the spin, the soft-pedaled headlines, and the endless attempts to pretend this problem doesn’t exist.
We get into why the rollout is brilliant, how it undercuts the press narrative that ICE “only” targets harmless offenders, and why transparency like this terrifies the same institutions that have been whitewashing the consequences of illegal immigration for decades. But we also ask the tough question: if the media refuses to cover it, and most Americans never see it, how far does a database like this really go?
16:00 Today the American Mamas take on a question that hits every family sooner or later — and hits hard: What’s tougher? Losing a parent suddenly, or watching them fade slowly over time? It’s one of those raw, real-life dilemmas that doesn’t have an easy answer, but Terri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson go straight into it with honesty, humor, and the kind of lived experience you only get the hard way.
From the shock of quick goodbyes to the long heartbreak of Alzheimer’s, from feeling helpless when distance keeps you away to witnessing the moment a parent realizes their body can’t do what their mind still thinks it can — the Mamas walk through the pain, the gratitude, the guilt, the grace, and even the unexpected moments of laughter that come with loving someone through their final chapter.

23:00 We get into a rare kind of headline — a move from one of America’s top business leaders that cuts completely against the gloomy narrative we’re all used to hearing. Michael Dell and his wife are dropping an eye-popping
