House Speaker Mike Johnson has his work cut out for him. The 17th is the deadline to keep the nation from defaulting on its debt. He's released a "laddered" plan to "phase" into it. We discuss it in today's show. Iran's President spoke over the weekend to a group of Islamists in Saudi Arabia. If Iran's intentions regarding the Middle East conflict have heretofore been unknown, that's no longer the fact. He stated Israel MUST be destroyed (along with the United States). Here's a question for you: what will we do about it? Doesn't that sound like a declaration of war against Israel AND the U.S.? Illinois lawmakers killed a "school choice" voucher program that has given hope and opportunity for better education to a massive number of minority students. However, state Democrats killed the program. Why would they do that? Teachers' unions at the state and national levels poured millions of dollars into the campaigns of these Illinois lawmakers! "The love of money is the root of all evil." (1 Timothy 6: 10)

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has "listened" to the cries of many around the World. He's agreed to a several-hour period each day for his military to allow people to move around in Gaza safely, receive medical care, and some even leave the war zone. Many think this was a big move by the PM. They -- including President Joe Biden -- didn't know that Israel has already been doing this every day! Some of our Arab allies in the Middle East are concerned about how this war is being handled -- primarily by Israel. Sadly, former President Donald Trump had obtained agreements of these Arab allies to join the "Abraham Accords," a peace agreement between all who participated. Now, several are backing away. They're all watching President Biden's inconsistencies in what he says about the War that are changing almost daily. International trust for our president appears to be dwindling at an amazing pace.

We analyzed everything concerning the GOP Debate -- the third such debate. There was not much interest among Miami residents regarding that debate Wednesday night. However, just a few miles away was a "Trump Rally" where thousands of Miami citizens clamored to see and hear the former President. Meanwhile, war rages on in Israel and Gaza. Daily, more and more evidence that includes personal testimonies, pictures, and videos confirms the atrocities members of Hamas have perpetrated on thousands of innocents -- especially Israeli women. Everything from sexual assault, rape, and even murder are witnessed on the streets every day. The U.S. finally retaliated against the Iran proxy groups that continue to attack Americans located at military bases across Iraq. Secretary of Defense Austin announced air strikes happened Wednesday in which F-15 fighters destroyed numerous facilities housing ammunition located in these bases across Iraq. Americans are asking the obvious question every day: why is the U.S. military still in Iraq? We have NO answer.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted to censure Michigan Democrat Representative Rashida Tlaib. A group of Democrats joined Republicans in taking that action. Mentioning that opens the door to consider the massive back-and-forth happening around the World regarding the attack of Israel by Hamas and the slaughter that first night of 1400 innocent Israeli men, women, and children. Israeli haters consider those atrocities to be a "down payment" for what Jihadists feel Israel should receive. Republicans hold their 3rd debate tonight, each sharing their plan to lead the nation. They must convince fellow Republicans that they each are better qualified than Donald Trump to lead the nation for four years. Meanwhile, Trump holds a massive advantage over every Republican challenger. Trump also leads Biden in numerous polls with margins outside the margin of error. Do you wonder about how/why transgender "assignment surgery" has skyrocketed? Today, we reveal the cause and who made it happen: Barack Obama as part of "Obamacare!"

Steve Baker joins us today from Washington, D.C. Steve experienced first-hand the lawlessness in our nation's Capital. He was mugged last night on a street as he was walking and lost his laptop, car keys, and many documents he needed for work. That illustrates how "open" our nation is to lawlessness that our leaders refuse to check through enforcing laws. Secretary of State Blinken continues to spend time in the Middle East begging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to order a "cease-fire" in Israel's massive military power against Hamas. Netanyahu again made clear Israel will continue until every member of Hamas is dead. He did, however, indicate a "possible" scenario for a cease-fire if Hamas releases every hostage they are holding. VP Harris proudly announced a new agency created to stop Islamaphobic acts against Muslim people that comprise about 1% of all such attacks. It's odd the Biden Admin. took such actions. Why? Jews in the U.S. comprise 2+% of our population, but 65% of hate crimes in the U.S. are committed against Jews!

In today's show we dispel the claim that the fight between Israel and Hamas is for the Palestinian people to get their country back from the Israelis. The problem with that allegation is this: there never has been a nation of "Palestine!" In today's show we give you the historical information to validate that statement. Also, our President "flipped the switch" on his early thoughts about Israel's right to respond to October 7th's slaughter of 1400 Israeli people. In the beginning he plainly stated "We support the Nation of Israel and their right to respond to this barbaric attack." However, after his former boss, Obama, came out against Israel's retaliation, Biden and Sec. of State Blinken are both giving speeches and interviews demanding Israel starts a "cease-fire," or a "pause." How arrogant of us! However, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu restates Israel's actions: "We will NOT stop fighting until every member of Hamas is dead!"
