We live in a time where average patriotic Americans are being labeled "domestic terrorists". The punishment for "wrongthink" varies from restriction of free speech on social media, businesses and people being censored or completely canceled, to being a political prisoner. Who is behind all of this madness? As they label anyone who dares to question the government's narrative a "domestic terrorist" the censorship police are primed to do much more to you than just not let you post your "wrongthink" on Facebook. The 2024 elections are definitely a target of the censorship cabal and yes, they’re even using artificial intelligence and we should expect massive increases in attempts to keep the American people from getting true information about that election. My guest today, Anrew Riddaugh, says "AI is already being used by the Censorship Industrial Complex to suppress search results, your emails, the news you see, your social media feeds, business directed to you, donations, and more. It's so easy for them to impact elections. A woke google employee could easily set the algorithm to auto spam conservative emails, or shut down your company email, altogether. This is happening and going to happen more often this election year." Andrew Riddaugh is CEO of Liberation Technology Services, a company at the forefront of the private cloud hosting industry, groundbreaking cybersecurity solutions and the pioneer of liquid-cooled edge data centers. Prior to building Liberation Tek, Riddaugh was with the Executive Office of the President of the United States in the Trump Administration.

Every day we see it and we are sick and tired of it. The whole of government, the legal system, Corporations, and even our banks, are weaponized against those they hate for their beliefs. But we are fighting back, as you just heard a January 6th case is at the Supreme Court on appeal and if it is overturned, over 300 defendants will get some level of relief from a crazy lawfare application of a financial document law being misused by the Department of Justice. President Trump is also fighting back and being threatened with jail time for daring to speak out in his own defense against these nut job tyrants! But its getting worse too as we’re now hearing the internal revenue service is using artificial intelligence to spy on our bank accounts so we must always keep up our efforts to push back! US Navy veteran and host of the I’m Fired Up Show joins me today to discuss this and more!

Over the weekend we all watched as Iran launched a large aerial attack from its soil at the nation of Israel. As I’ve reported previously Iran has always been behind its proxy militia forces and those groups actions are under the direction of Iran through the Iranian Republican Guard Corps, or IRGC. Iran’s actions this weekend finally ripped the mask off revealing for the rest of the world who is actually behind attacks like what happened on October 7 2023. Even though Iran says the attack was only in response to Israel’s attack on a building next to their embassy in Damascus, Syria, killing the top IRGC commander in the region who was directing Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad combat operations against Israel, the reality is now that Iran is out in the open in its war, its actions are a legal act of war against another country. The United States, United Kingdom, France, and Jordan openly defended Israel  when they all used their Air and Naval Forces to shoot down a large portion of the more than 300 attacking drones, land attack cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles, prompting Russia to threaten the United States not to attack Iran or it will enter the conflict. As Israel considers its response options the larger question is will China and Russia take any military action beyond their current positions, both aligned with Iran, when Israel responds? The risk of escalation to regional war and beyond is real and each must act appropriately.

The world changed significantly in early 2020 when the so-called pandemic broke out from Wuhan, China but the biggest changes were in the U.S. military once an emergency use authorization vaccine was mandated upon all service members. The lawfulness of that order and its implementation are likely a part of the cause of our recruiting goal challenges today. Military member’s right of informed consent, due process, and religious freedom were all violated as military leaders forced members to take an unlicensed EUA vaccine or face disciplinary action. Eventually Congress rescinded the vaccine mandate, but the damage is done and will likely be with us for a long time. Restoring trust in military leadership will be difficult as there seems to be a long-term trend of American leaders choosing to protect their institutions instead of the defending the constitution they swore an oath to. Two men have taken up the challenge of explaining what happened, why this happened, and making recommendations for a course correction before its too late.  Commander Rob Green, is an active duty Navy Commander, author of the book Defending the Constitution behind Enemy Lines, and of the Declaration of Military Accountability, and retired Vice Admiral William “Dean” Lee, who concluded his U.S. Coast Guard career as the Atlantic Area Commander, serving as the operational commander for a force of 21,000 active personnel conducting all U.S. Coast Guard missions from the Rocky Mountains to the Arabian Gulf, spanning across five Coast Guard Districts and 40 states are my guests today.

Yes they will, if we, you, do nothing when you see abuse of power by them, the government agencies like the CIA and FBI. Eventually, there abusive policies will touch you. Over the last few years, revelations have shown the CIA, which is supposed to focus outwardly, has long been meddling in domestic politics. Worse, they’ve become the endless war machine’s go to agency for continuing the policies that are destroying American credibility and our ability to deter our adversaries from starting wars, the opposite of what their mission is. Those that pull the levers of power in the intelligence community are betraying their oaths of office and the American people. A few are standing up and calling them out and we have one of those whistleblowers with us today. Pedro Israel Orta is a former CIA Intelligence Officer, Cuban-American and author of the new book The Broken Whistle.

What a time to be living and a part of human history. With technology developments exponentially increasing, natural events like earthquakes happening in places like New York, the eclipse from yesterday, Christianity under attack, and wars breaking out all over the world, this is the perfect year to energize Americans to re-elect a man named Donald J. Trump and re-dedicate themselves to their religious faith, especially Christians like me. We’ve got two great guests today, in the second half of the show Clay Clark of the Re-Awaken America Tour will join us but first up is the man who lives his life by these words visionary, truth teller, disruptor, patriot, target, brother, husband, father – the descriptors of General Mike Flynn, who not only served his country in uniform but continues that service to save our country for our grandchildren. The General is now on the road, premiering his new movie Flynn-Deliver The Truth, Whatever The Cost for every day Americans. 34 cities in 55 days in the election year of 2024, I can’t think of a better time to energize we who believe America should come first in all our policies and he’s taken a few minutes to join us today.

“In the minutes after a launch detection or nuclear detonation, would America’s nuclear command, control, and communications system enable the president to make a timely and accurate decision to retaliate? We do not know.” That is the very first line from a recent article from the National Institute for Deterrence Studies.  We have raised concerns on this show often about our country’s questionable ability to deter Russia and China considering technology developments such as both countries successful fielding of nuclear capable hypersonic missiles because response timelines in a protentional nuclear war exchange are now very compressed compared to those our nuclear command and control system was developed and fielded to handle. The article recommends use of artificial intelligence to speed up our decision-making process as a “dead-hand” system. Any mention of AI use in a critical system such as nuclear forces and command, control, and communications raises serious questions that must be answered before moving forward. One of the authors of this thought-provoking article is my guest today. Retired Colonel Curtis McGiffin is the vice president for education at the National Institute for Deterrence Studies and a visiting assistant professor at Missouri State University.

What really happened when the container ship M/V Dali struck the Francis Scott Key bridge and, it immediately collapsed, destroying not only a key bridge but maiming or killing at least eight people? We will look at what happened based on what we know now of the facts and the timeline. I know there is a lot of speculation out there about the root causes and the national transportation safety board investigation team is currently on the scene combing through all the information and data. Unfortunately there are some issues with the unified command structure that’s been set up to handle the incident and we’ll talk about the potential consequences. I’ve said it before, nothing should be ruled out until a thorough and competent incident investigation is completed. My guest today is Professional Mariner and Offshore Towing expert and US Coast Guard veteran Matthew Caldwell.

Election fraud in 2020 continues to make headlines and as more facts are revealed like you just heard in that clip from yesterday, the truth is slowly coming out. These revelations justify the reasons why Americans gathered to make their voices heard on January 6th, 2021, at the US Capitol. They were there because they had a right to demand redress of their grievances about potential election fraud from their government, just as it says in the First Amendment to the Constitution. Thousands of these patriots that were swept up into the protest that turned into pockets of rioting have been arrested, charged, imprisoned, without due process in many cases, and defamed falsely as “insurrectionists.” The good news is that Americans are organizing to care for the incarcerated and unfairly accused as they’ve had their lives turned upside down. One such organized group is My Brother’s Keeper right here in Oxford Mississippi whose mission states they are “dedicated to helping our state's January 6th prisoners. We endeavor to make Mississippi proud through our efforts to assist each one hailing from, or having moved to, our state.” As the arrests of Americans continue for participating in the January 6th protests, more and more of our citizens are being mistreated by the weaponized justice system so we’ll continue to need these kind citizens to support the. Lori Cyree of My Brothers Keeper and Sheldon Bray, a recently charged January 6 defendant and Mississippian, join me today to inform us on the effort.

Democrat leftist Sanford Bishop has been in office in Georgia’s 2nd Congressional District for over 30 years. He continues to bring leftist policies to his district and the nation. Bishop stands for everything we are against, leviathan federal government, endless war policy, America last Trade policy, open borders, cultural Marxism in our schools, and the destruction of the rule of law. Today we have one of his opponents as my guest. As an America First candidate in this D+3 district Michael Nixon believes in putting Americans liberty, security, and prosperity before any other priorities just as you heard from President Trump in his policy actions in his first administration.
