In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano explores the dark underbelly of the nonprofit world – a multi-billion-dollar taxpayer-funded racket where political elites funnel public money to so-called nonprofits that push a political agenda and are packed with cronies, former officials, and even their own family members. While the public believes nonprofits serve the vulnerable, the reality is far murkier. Professor Giordano breaks down how massive grants, like the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, are quietly handed to nonprofits enriching the politically connected and do little to serve the public good. Instead, they operate as ideological slush funds by distributing billions of tax dollars with little oversight, reward insiders, and advance partisan agendas, at the taxpayer’s expense. This is the episode the government doesn’t want you to hear.

Episode Highlights:

• Discover how nonprofits have evolved from serving the needy to becoming vehicles for political influence, activism, and partisan agendas.

• Learn how billions in taxpayer dollars are being funneled to nonprofits with direct ties to political insiders, former officials, and family members of elected leaders.

• Expose how your tax dollars are being weaponized as ideological slush funds to reward allies and advance left-wing priorities, with little oversight or accountability.

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano is joined by Dr. Mark Young, host of Blunt Force Truth, for a blunt and engaging conversation on the rebirth of common sense in America, the failure of Democrat leadership, and the rise of ordinary citizens pushing back. From President Trump and Elon Musk’s mission to fix the government to the dangers of blind compliance during COVID, they dive deep into cultural decay, the erosion of common sense, and the political elitism within our institutions. Dr. Young explains why Democrats are doomed if they continue to die on unpopular policy hills, and how many Americans seek the pursuit of comfort over courage, accountability, and the hard work required to restore the nation.

Episode Highlights: • President Trump, Elon Musk, and others are committed to address national issues and effect meaningful change, despite their substantial wealth, as they clearly don’t need the power, recognition, or political battles that come with it. • How Democrats are alienating voters by clinging to fringe issues.  • The real reason younger generations obey, comply and disconnect.

The judiciary was meant to interpret laws, not rewrite them and not enforce them. Yet activist judges are going beyond their constitutional role by undermining both the executive branch and Congress’s legislative authority. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how left-wing judges are making unconstitutional rulings that defy executive authority, particularly in cases involving President Trump’s efforts to remove federal employees and enforce immigration laws. These judges, many with histories of Democrat donations and political activism, are not ruling based on the Constitution but rather their personal ideologies. As Trump calls for their impeachment, we examine why this is not the right solution and why Congress must find a way to hold these judges accountable. Judicial activism erodes the foundations of our republic, and if left unchecked, it will only get worse. Tune in as Professor Giordano breaks down the most egregious cases, the dangers of a politicized judiciary, and why judicial restraint is essential to maintain a constitutional balance of power.

Episode Highlights: • Judicial Overreach Exposed – How activist judges are blocking Trump's executive actions and undermining the rule of law. • The Dangers of Politicized Courts – Why a judiciary driven by ideology threatens the separation of powers. • Fixing the Problem – Why impeachment isn't the answer, but censure and reforms are necessary to restore judicial integrity.

Political violence is escalating as leftists increasingly use swatting as a weapon to target their opponents, putting lives at risk in an attempt to silence dissent. Meanwhile, coordinated attacks on Tesla facilities and Tesla drivers expose the left's growing intolerance toward those who don’t conform to their ideology. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down how these dangerous tactics represent a disturbing trend of political extremism and why those responsible must be held accountable. This movement isn’t about protecting “democracy.” Despite the left claiming this is a form of protest and resistance to President Trump and Elon Musk, it’s really a movement to eliminate freedom of thought and intimidate anyone who dares to challenge the leftist narrative. With zero tolerance for these criminal actions, it's time to call out the hypocrisy and demand real consequences.

Episode Highlights: • Swatting as a Political Weapon – How leftists are using swatting to terrorize their opponents and why it’s only a matter of time before someone gets killed. • Coordinated Tesla Attacks – Examining the growing violence against Tesla facilities and drivers, exposing the left’s intolerance. • The Left’s Embrace of Political Intimidation – How these incidents fit into a larger pattern of using threats, destruction, and violence to silence dissent. • The Authoritarian Left – How those who claim to fight “fascism” are actually the ones that promote it with their attempts to silence dissent and attack free thought.

As tariffs hit, government spending is slashed, and bureaucratic fat is trimmed, Americans will feel the consequences. With consumer sentiment and the stock market fluctuating, how much pain are Americans willing to bear for a leaner, more accountable government and a stronger economic future? Will they stand by President Trump as he moves forward with his agenda, or will short-term pain create backlash? In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the economic and political realities of government cuts, the tough choices ahead, and whether Americans truly have the resolve to end government overreach once and for all.

Episode Highlights: • Tariffs, Budget Cuts & Market Reactions How economic pain hits American households and what it means for Trump's economic plan. • Are Americans Too Shortsighted? Voters demand smaller government, but will they backtrack as real consequences emerge? • The Political Stakes Will Americans accept temporary pain for long-term prosperity, or will political pressure force a return to reckless government spending and business as usual in Washington DC?
