The Rob Maness Show

The anthrax vaccine was integrated into my Air Force career and my family’s lives from the very beginning of the first Gulf War to the post-9/11 anthrax letter attacks, my deployments in the global war on terror and now post-COVID and restoring service members harmed by the unlawful military vaccine orders. The COVID debacle should have been prevented if we had learned the lessons of the anthrax vaccine correctly, but we did not. That is why I want to highlight the story of those veterans permanently harmed by the unlawful anthrax vaccine and their continued fight for full restoration of their reputations and their very lives. My guest today is retired Air Force Colonel Tom, Buzz, Rempfer. Colonel Rempfer’s memoir Unyielding, which you can find at Skyhorse publishing, retraces the anthrax vaccine history since it marked the first time the military was served with court rulings condemning premeditated illegal experimentation on our nation’s troops. The advent of COVID mandates, imposed on the population in 2021, gave the American people a taste of the mistreatment previously reserved for our nation’s warriors. Legal protections enacted by the Congress to guard against medical experimentation, meant to ensure safe, effective, and FDA-approved products, were instead adulterated to foist mandates on American society. Col Rempfer continues to lead the fight to restore anthrax vaccine harmed veterans today.

Wow. That is Sam Altman of ChatGPT. His words are worth repeating: We Want ChatGPT to Remember Your Entire Life "The ideal state is a very tiny reasoning model with a trillion tokens of context that you put your whole life into. The model never retrains. The weights never customized, but it can reason across your whole life context and do it efficiently. Every conversation you've ever had in your life, every book you've ever read, every email you've ever read, and everything you've ever looked at is in there. Plus it is connected to all your data from other sources." The light bulb came on for me when I reached out to schedule today’s guest and he sent me one of the things he wanted to discuss today in our AI update. His comments on Altman’s idea: “With ChatOuijaPT, you get your own personal demon who looks over your shoulder 24/7, offering life advice when needed. Who the hell wants this exactly?” We’ll be discussing this plus where we’re at with AI and how it will impact American jobs today. My guest today is War Room’s Tech Editor Joe Allen, author of Dark Aeon: Transhumanism and The War Against Humanity, the groundbreaking book revealing the dangers of AI and the intent of many of the people and entities seeking to advance it. The introduction on Dark Aeon’s Amazon page says “Like a thief in the night, artificial intelligence has inserted itself into our lives. It makes important decisions for us every day. Often, we barely notice.”

The new Golden Age, that’s the destination those of us that voted for the policies of Donald Trump seek, and we are sincere about it. This means we seek peace instead of war, strength instead of weakness, prosperity instead of economic despair, fairness in hiring and academic institution acceptance through meritocracy, not by race or sex, and putting Americans first instead of illegal aliens. How are we doing? If you ask the lame stream media, terrible and we just did a fake poll show proving they’re liars. If you ask our adversaries, we’re bullying them through the amazing tariff program we’ve implemented to finally re-balance trade. If you ask the Democrats, we’re going to hurt people with DOGE cuts of fraud, waste, and abuse. Are things perfect? Of course not, but the direction we’re going as a country and as human beings is into that new Golden Age and it shows. My guest today is former Trump campaign surrogate, entrepreneur, and political strategist Autry J. Pruitt. Autry is a distinguished political speaker, author of Planes, Steak and Water: Defending Donald Trump, Co-Founder and President of Spencer-Pruitt, capital markets consultants, and media commentator renowned for bridging divides across America.

Recent usual suspect polling on President Trump’s approval ratings as of May 2025 shows a false mixed picture, with a general trend of declining support since the start of his second term. According to a manipulated New York Times report from May 13, 2025, Trump’s approval rating has dropped to around 44%, down from 52% shortly after his January 20 inauguration. This is purposely intended to show a sharper decline than that of most recent presidents at a similar point in their terms. Polls from outlets like CNN, Pew Research, and The Washington Post-ABC-Ipsos, conducted in late April, indicate approval ratings ranging from 39% to 45%, with disapproval often exceeding 55%. They try to show key issues dragging down his numbers include economic concerns, particularly fears of recession and rising prices due to his tariff policies, with 71% of voters in an ABC News poll citing tariffs as a negative factor in inflation. Immigration, once a strength, has also seen waning confidence, with only 45% approving of his handling of the issue per a CNN poll, down from 60% in December 2024. Of course, the nearly 100% negative media coverage of Trump’s approach to these issues help these pollsters present these false narratives. The reality is, reliable pollsters like Rasmussen Reports show the Presidents net approval ratings at +1 to +3 and recent economic numbers will likely show those numbers increasing rapidly! My guest today is Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen reports to talk with you about how these usual suspects create these numbers and what their intent really is. His data is so reliable, his X handle is @honestpollster! Mark is not only Rasmussen’s head pollster, he’s a fellow veteran and graduate of the US Naval Academy!

Prosecuting your political opponents, accusing them of collaborating with foreign enemies, judicial obstruction of the executive, destroying the court system’s credibility, importing illegal aliens to increase your voter base, all of these have been tried before and much more. We can and should analyze the classics and history, especially the Roman empire’s long demise, to gain an understanding of what is happening to the United States Republic today and find ways to prevent our own demise by confronting and finding solutions for this type of activity. My guest today to talk us about these issues and how to view them through the lenses of history and the actions of honorable and nefarious leaders and politicians is Alex Petkas, whose stated mission is to bring the wisdom of Plutarch — historian, philosopher, literary artist — to modern audiences. He is a Princeton PhD, a former university professor and now Host of the Cost Of Glory Podcast.

According to the Daily Mail Minnesota Republicans are seeking to legitimize the pejorative term used to describe the left’s disdain for President Trump with a bill in the state legislature that would legally define it as a mental illness. No really, they are. And they go one to say even “while mental health experts have pointed to the harm of misusing medical and psychiatric terminology to pathologize political opposition, they argue that the term captures a kernel of truth.” I believe this is a serious issue, even though I like to make fun of them, it could easily lead, and is leading to, political violence (yes, domestic terrorism) by these people on their fellow citizens. My guest today to discuss TDS and more is Dr. Carole Lieberman. She is a board-certified forensic psychiatrist and bestselling author known as America’s Psychiatrist. She’s a three-time Emmy-honored TV personality and internationally recognized expert in the psychological impact of terrorism. Dr. Lieberman has been a consultant in many high-profile cases including the Jenny Jones murder case, Evander Holyfield and the Gabby Petito civil case (this did not go to trial). She is frequently seen on Fox News, Newsmax, and The Washington Times analyzing crime, political psychology, and media-fueled mental health crises.

The emerging three front world war has shifted ever so slowly toward peace but even the most positive of us are highly skeptical we’ll get to a full peace any time soon. On the middle East front, the threat of a US war with Iran seemed to be increasing with very harsh rhetoric over the last month but yesterday President Trump announced the Houthi’s have capitulated and decided they don’t want to die anymore after the sustained bombing campaign of the last two months. Is this a good sign is one of the big questions surrounding the President’s trip to the Middle East next week and he stated in his press conference there will be a big positive announcement next week too. Pardon me if I’m skeptical, especially with the Ukraine-Russia peace deal seeming to stall at the European front as Ukraine threatens to attack the Moscow Victory Day parade on May 9, celebrating the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War 2, and the massive missile attacks on Crimea and Kiev in the last week from both sides. Solid information seems a bit harder to get regarding foreign policy these days with the Trump administration staff changes like National Security Advisor Mike Waltz leaving NSC and going to be UN Ambassador. On the Indo Pacific front, China conducted its largest Taiwan invasion rehearsals exercise yet and two nuclear powers, India and Pakistan, are trading conventional attacks over the last few days. My guest today to discuss all this is national security strategist David Pyne. David is a former U.S. Army combat arms and Headquarters staff officer, who oversaw armaments cooperation with the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Americas from 2000-2003. He currently serves as President of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security.

That’s right folks’ rogue judges continue to attack President Trump’s clear Article 2 powers such as managing personnel in the executive branch and huge national security policies that help keep us safe. I know not everyone agrees with Laura Loomer, but she has been doing yeoman’s work using her research team to expose vetting weaknesses in the administration’s appointee process that need to be addressed! This is a serious challenge for getting the things we voted for accomplished so it must be fixed. And then there’s the perceived lack of progress at national security state apparatus agencies, especially the FBI. Having worked in the Federal government for over 30 years I do get it, the Director and Deputy Director have only been in place a short time and they need time to work the big things but promoting the leader of the nationwide manhunt for J6 grandmas? Come on man, we need to see progress in accountability, the Epstein perps, the Trump Assassins, and tracking down Islamist terrorists, Cartel terrorists, and Chinese military aged male illegals in the country are all things we expect to see major progress on fast! Finally, the political money laundering seems to continue relentlessly with almost no investigations, Act Blue and USAID are only a couple of examples! My guest today to discuss all this is Steven M. Abramowicz. Steve is CEO and Editor of Heartland Journal.com and host of the Heartland Journal podcast. The Heartland Journal is the original hometown print newspaper for Mill Creek, WA, founded by an 82d Airborne Army veteran dedicated to truth and patriotism.

This paragraph from my guest today’s book highlights the nature of the challenge Marines faced in 2010 as they moved in to a Afghanistan’s toughest province to fight in. “West of Kandahar is a hot, dry, and mostly barren land known as Helmand Province. The Helmand River runs through it, and the majority of the hard people who occupy this land live near the river. The further west you go from Kandahar, the more austere life becomes. Helmand has no electrical grid, and over 99% of its people live without electricity. The Afghans in Helmand Province live in scattered tribes, some of them nomadic, others living in hamlets and villages made of mud, and they hold tribal grudges that go back centuries. They hardly identify as “Afghan,” but rather they each identify with their own tribe.” My guest is Marine combat veteran intelligence NCO and author Matthew Brunnemann. His book WAR BUSINESS: The Hired Guns of Helmand Province tells the story of his Marine brothers in Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment in their fight against the Taliban.
