Retired US Army Brigadier General Anthony Tata joins the show to discuss one of the hottest topics of this year's election, President-Elect Donald Trump's military policy. From nominating former US Army Major and Fox News host Pete Hegseth to the position of Secretary of Defense to his planned review process for top-level military leadership, Trump's new ideas for streamlining our forces are both innovative and controversial. Tata, the former Senior Official Performing the Duties of Under Secretary of Defense for Policy in Trump's previous administration, brings his unique perspective to the inner-workings of the Trump regime and shares his thoughts about where the President-Elect will take our fighting men and women in a world being destabilized by the likes of Russia, China, North Korea & Iran.

IP & civil rights attorney Ron Coleman returns to talk about the biggest political story in decades, Donald Trump's dominant victory in the 2024 Presidential Election, along with Republicans seizing control of the Senate and maintaining their hold on the House of Representatives...a GOP sweep that contradicted nearly every poll, every prediction, and every statistic. How did the media and Democrats so badly misread the election, and is there any way for them to ever reconnect with sane voters after trying to win with maximum wokeness?

Mollie Engelhart has one of the most eclectic backgrounds you may ever meet. She grew up on a farm in upstate New York before heading to California to study film at the prestigious, Disney-founded California Institute of the Arts. From there, she worked in A&R at Sony and became a recording artist herself, before taking on a new challenge by founding the vegan restaurants KindKreme and Sage. But when she started growing her own food on her own farmland to stock her restaurants' kitchens, she discovered an ever-mounting web of red tape and an avalanche of ridiculous overregulation that seemed contrary to every Californian's granola-fueled dreams of environmental friendliness and clean living. So, like many California residents, she picked up stakes and relocated to the Republic of Texas, building a farm, restaurant, brewery at Sovereignty Ranch, a 200-acre patch of unspoiled Hill Country near San Antonio. In this episode, she joins Victoria to share some incredible stories about her challenges in California, her philosophy of regenerative agriculture, and the looming health & environmental crises we may be facing if we fail to re-think how we feed ourselves.

Author & ClimateDepot.com founder Marc Morano joins Victoria to talk about the Biden/Harris administration's plans to declare a "climate emergency," using the same emergency powers granted in crises like the 9/11 terror attacks and the COVID pandemic to curtail the rights and finances of ordinary Americans. And in the wake of the devastating hurricane-caused disasters in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas & Tennessee, the activist class is more motivated than ever to use the cudgel of government to enforce its doctrine.

J. Christian Adams returns to the program to talk about a number of topics including the investigation into the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, as well as Trump's New York convictions. But his primary focus as President of the Public Interest Legal Foundation is election integrity, and he has some very serious concerns. He details the organization's research into illegal voters and poorly-maintained and -audited rolls, and the findings that recently resulted on a trip to Capitol Hill. On the eve of one of the climax of one of the most tumultuous and controversial election seasons in memory, Adams explains why preventing voter fraud is more critical than ever before.
One of the biggest controversies of the 2024 election season has been "Project 2025," a proposed policy roadmap formulated by a team at the Heritage Foundation to guide the Trump administration's first year in office if re-elected. The project garnered so much negative publicity from the mainstream press that the Trump campaign publicly distanced itself from the contents and the project leader stepped down. But was that really necessary, or the consequence of misinformation from left-wing media presenting selections without context?
On this special episode of The Adult in the Room, Victoria is joined by PJ Media commentator Kevin Downey Jr. to talk about the upcoming election season and the project's contents, before speaking with Steven Groves, Margaret Thatcher Fellow at the Heritage Foundation and one of the legion of contributors to the nearly 1,000-page document. Hear straight from the source how the media sabotaged the project, what is actually contained in the proposal, and why fearmongering and rhetoric are causing this election, perhaps more than any other, to spiral out of control.
Economist, author, and former Democrat Peter Navarro was one of Donald Trump’s most critical advisors during his campaign and administration, helping to shape White House trade policy. He was among the first outside the scientific community to see the looming danger of the 2020 pandemic and its economic implications, as well as the overall threat of China on the world stage. Just under two weeks ago, he was released from prison after being found in contempt of Congress. Now, he’s releasing a new book: The New MAGA Deal: The Unofficial Deplorables Guide to Donald Trump’s 2024 Policy Platform.
