    <description><![CDATA[<p>A breakup, a desperate prayer, and a month of unsettling phone calls at a construction site set Moustapha Ozturk on a path he never expected. Years later, that path becomes his book, Invoking the Holy Spirit, and a simple but demanding claim: forgiveness is not about pretending something didn’t hurt, it’s about releasing the anxiety and pain that keep replaying in our minds. If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, carrying stress you can’t explain, or longing for real inner peace, this conversation meets you right where you are.<br/> <br/> We talk about what forgiveness actually is (and what it is not), why the ego clings to fear, and how a noisy, cluttered mind can become its own kind of prison. Moustapha shares practical ways he settles himself when life feels overwhelming, including the kind of self-talk and presence that helps you step out of worry and into clarity. He also explains spirituality as connection rather than dogma, and why making space inside your mind matters if you want a deeper relationship with God.<br/> <br/> Along the way, we dig into vivid moments he believes were direct guidance, including a split-second warning to “hit the deck” before an explosion on a rooftop fire, plus reflections on suffering, courage, and choosing nonjudgment when it counts. If you want Christian spirituality, forgiveness practices, and real-world stories of faith under pressure, you’ll find a lot to sit with here.

We weigh Iran’s shifting mission language, a cruise ship outbreak scare, city politics in Seattle and California, and the growing 2028 conversation around Rubio and Vance. <br/>• Southwest’s assigned seating and the disappearance of “Jetway Jesus” <br/>• Iran’s operation rename, the War Powers Act timeline, and unanswered objectives <br/>• Strait of Hormuz pressure, oil flow, and the risk of wider global entanglement <br/>• Suspected hantavirus on a cruise ship, quarantine fears, and passenger reality <br/>• Amsterdam banning meat and fossil fuel ads to push a green agenda <br/>• Europe’s social strain and the irony of selective “public good” rules <br/>• Seattle’s tax-the-rich politics and why businesses and talent leave <br/>• California’s top-two primary risks and Spencer Pratt challenging Karen Bass <br/>• Marco Rubio’s communication strengths and the Rubio versus Vance 2028 logic <br/>• Met Gala “who dat” game as a quick culture temperature check <br/>• Comment section standards, free speech, and keeping debate clean <br/>Please, from Elsa and I, like you can express your opinion, but keep it clean. Like, let&apos;s be grown-ups about this, okay? <br/><br/><br/></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>A single sunrise can outshine a whole gift shop, and that’s the kind of quiet truth we dig into with children’s author and artist Michelle Dahl. Michelle spent years as an elementary school teacher, and her chapter book “A Walk with Grandpair, Mickey’s Souvenirs” began as a personal narrative writing tool for her students. After retirement, she pulled that classroom framework back off the shelf, followed the memory further, and turned it into a story that honors childhood wonder, family traditions, and the influence a grandparent can have in one ordinary morning.<br/><br/>We talk about what makes stories stick with kids and why writing from the heart works better than forcing a prompt. Michelle shares the real-life inspiration behind “Grandpair,” including the way elders pass down values through simple storytelling, not lectures. We also explore the book’s core message: material souvenirs disappear, but the “souvenirs of the heart” last, especially moments like walking the beach before dawn, seeing your first sunrise, and feeling safe in a loved one’s hand.<br/><br/>Friendship and resilience come up in a big way too. Michelle explains why she wanted young readers to see that meaningful friendships can be instant, joyful, and sometimes temporary, and that endings can hurt without erasing what the friendship gave you. We also connect her writing to her visual art, from watercolor illustration to pet portrait commissions that help families hold onto love and memory.<br/><br/>If you care about children’s books, grandparent-grandchild bonding, storytelling in education, or raising resilient kids in a distracted world, this conversation will stay with you.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>A cancer epidemiologist walks into the Australian outback, builds a field camp at 22, and accidentally sparks a small-town “cookie war” between two rival grandmothers. That’s the tone of this conversation with Dr. Christopher Loffredo of Georgetown University, whose new book <a href='https://amzn.to/4ea99ml'>Globe Trotting for Science</a> blends global fieldwork stories with the real stakes of cancer prevention and public health research.<br/><br/>We talk about what science looks like outside the lab: the messy logistics, the teamwork, and the people skills that make international research possible. Chris shares how he moved from bench science to epidemiology through a life-changing data analyst job, and why mentors who “take care of their people” can shape not only careers but also better outcomes. We also dig into science communication and why humor isn’t a distraction it’s often the fastest path to trust across cultures, especially when you’re trying to do hard work in unfamiliar places.<br/><br/>Then the conversation turns to the heart of his mission: preventing cancer before it takes hold. Using liver cancer as a key example, Chris explains why prevention often matters more than treatment, how hepatitis B and C and alcoholism drive risk in different regions, and why solutions have to be culturally realistic. His Thailand research on liver fluke exposure from raw fish shows the challenge clearly: you can’t “educate” people out of a staple food without offering a workable alternative, so interventions like cooking or fermentation and credible local advocacy become essential. If you care about global health, epidemiology, cancer prevention, or how to build a meaningful career by saying yes to uncertainty, this one will stick with you.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A cancer epidemiologist walks into the Australian outback, builds a field camp at 22, and accidentally sparks a small-town “cookie war” between two rival grandmothers. That’s the tone of this conversation with Dr. Christopher Loffredo of Georgetown University, whose new book <a href='https://amzn.to/4ea99ml'>Globe Trotting for Science</a> blends global fieldwork stories with the real stakes of cancer prevention and public health research.<br/><br/>We talk about what science looks like outside the lab: the messy logistics, the teamwork, and the people skills that make international research possible. Chris shares how he moved from bench science to epidemiology through a life-changing data analyst job, and why mentors who “take care of their people” can shape not only careers but also better outcomes. We also dig into science communication and why humor isn’t a distraction it’s often the fastest path to trust across cultures, especially when you’re trying to do hard work in unfamiliar places.<br/><br/>Then the conversation turns to the heart of his mission: preventing cancer before it takes hold. Using liver cancer as a key example, Chris explains why prevention often matters more than treatment, how hepatitis B and C and alcoholism drive risk in different regions, and why solutions have to be culturally realistic. His Thailand research on liver fluke exposure from raw fish shows the challenge clearly: you can’t “educate” people out of a staple food without offering a workable alternative, so interventions like cooking or fermentation and credible local advocacy become essential. If you care about global health, epidemiology, cancer prevention, or how to build a meaningful career by saying yes to uncertainty, this one will stick with you.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>A single week manages to hit every nerve: faith and war, social media spectacle, nuclear brinkmanship, and institutions that feel like they’re losing the plot. We start with the clash between Pope Leo and President Trump over Iran, including the moral claims being made about war and peace and the very modern problem of a viral AI image becoming part of the geopolitical conversation. We’re not interested in performative outrage, so we talk through what’s actually knowable and where people are letting bias do the thinking for them.<br/><br/>Then we zoom in on the Iran nuclear deal pressure cooker and the Strait of Hormuz blockade. We walk through what a blockade means in practical terms, why rules of engagement matter, and how energy markets respond to risk long before a shot is fired. We also dig into the real sticking point in any negotiation: nuclear enrichment capability and the question of trust, verification, and what “peace” looks like when national survival is on the table.<br/><br/>Back at home, we explain the selective service registration change that’s causing panic and why automatic enrollment is not the same thing as reinstating the draft. From there, we get into a messy Supreme Court moment after a personal jab between justices, plus the political implications of potential retirements. We also cover the Swalwell resignation and what it says about accountability culture in Congress, and we close with an early signal from Los Angeles where a $30 minimum wage mandate is followed by rapid job cuts.<br/><br/>If you’re tired of headlines that whiplash you, come hang with us for calmer political news analysis, media literacy, and the patterns underneath the noise.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A single week manages to hit every nerve: faith and war, social media spectacle, nuclear brinkmanship, and institutions that feel like they’re losing the plot. We start with the clash between Pope Leo and President Trump over Iran, including the moral claims being made about war and peace and the very modern problem of a viral AI image becoming part of the geopolitical conversation. We’re not interested in performative outrage, so we talk through what’s actually knowable and where people are letting bias do the thinking for them.<br/><br/>Then we zoom in on the Iran nuclear deal pressure cooker and the Strait of Hormuz blockade. We walk through what a blockade means in practical terms, why rules of engagement matter, and how energy markets respond to risk long before a shot is fired. We also dig into the real sticking point in any negotiation: nuclear enrichment capability and the question of trust, verification, and what “peace” looks like when national survival is on the table.<br/><br/>Back at home, we explain the selective service registration change that’s causing panic and why automatic enrollment is not the same thing as reinstating the draft. From there, we get into a messy Supreme Court moment after a personal jab between justices, plus the political implications of potential retirements. We also cover the Swalwell resignation and what it says about accountability culture in Congress, and we close with an early signal from Los Angeles where a $30 minimum wage mandate is followed by rapid job cuts.<br/><br/>If you’re tired of headlines that whiplash you, come hang with us for calmer political news analysis, media literacy, and the patterns underneath the noise.

I’m joined by Tulsi C, author of Reconnaissance Behind the Veil, for a candid conversation about grief, trauma, and the moment a near-death experience reshaped how she understood purpose, healing, and identity.<br/><br/>Tulsi shares her path from earning an MS in computer science and working in corporate America to building a healing practice in the Atlanta area, where she now supports clients through modalities like life coaching, hypnotherapy, neurolinguistic programming, emotional freedom techniques, sound therapy, and past-life regression. We talk about the early spiritual sensitivity she experienced as a child, the stabilizing influence of her intuitive mother, and how sudden loss forced her to become self-sufficient in a way that ultimately transformed her.<br/><br/>We also explore the ideas that run through her memoir: karma as a form of accountability, why repeating relationship patterns can feel bigger than logic, and how chakra healing can function like day-to-day maintenance for emotional balance and self-love. Whether you approach spirituality as belief, metaphor, or pure curiosity, you’ll leave with a clearer sense of how people turn pain into practice and why hope and resilience are not passive traits but choices you keep making.<br/><br/>If this conversation resonates, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review so more listeners can find Elsa Kurt Interviews.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Some stories start as a plan. Others start as a punch to the chest. My guest’s journey is both: she went from joining the military to earn the GI Bill, to teaching, to becoming a principal, and eventually building an alternate school in rural Texas for students who are behind on credits but still deserve a real path to a diploma. We talk about what’s changed for kids over the last decade, why anxiety feels so much more common after COVID, and how flexible education can still hold high standards when it’s built around real life circumstances. <br/><br/>Then we go somewhere more personal. She explains the emotional origin of her first book, sparked by multiple losses to suicide and the insights found inside a young girl’s diary. We sit with the hard question many parents and mentors carry: how can someone who seems “okay” be fighting a constant internal war? Her answer isn’t a slogan, it’s a story-driven attempt at understanding, written to help families feel less confused and more connected. <br/><br/>We also shift into pure craft and curiosity: how a trip to Salem lit the match for her historical fiction witch series, why accurate history can act like an outline, and how research into herbal remedies and early medicine adds texture without turning the books into lectures. If you love creativity, discipline, storytelling, and the strange ways grief can become purpose, you’ll take a lot from this conversation.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>A lot of people talk about “chasing the dream.” Michelle Morris actually did it, and the road there runs through the White House, presidential campaigns, global corporate communications, and a moment that changes everything: a deathbed promise to finally write the books she’d carried since childhood. I loved this conversation because it’s equal parts craft talk and life talk, with the kind of honesty that makes you rethink what you’re postponing.<br/><br/>We get into her novel Comes Around, a gripping suspense story set in small-town Michigan where the pull of home is both comfort and threat. Michelle introduces Hallie McCarthy, a woman in her early 30s whose shiny startup life in San Francisco implodes under federal scrutiny. Hallie drives back to her hometown quietly, stops first at the cemetery, and tries to decide whether she can disappear again before anyone sees her. Then the tension tightens: something, or someone, may have followed her back. Alongside the mystery, we talk about the layered family dynamics that make the book hit hard, especially the older, wiser women who show up with backbone, love, and zero patience for self-pity.<br/><br/>Michelle also shares the surprising real-world spark for the opening scene, how she learned the publishing industry after years of “industry-adjacent” writing, and why treating writing like a job can unlock speed, consistency, and better stories. If you love suspense novels, family secrets, second chances, and strong female characters, you’ll want to put this on your list.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A lot of people talk about “chasing the dream.” Michelle Morris actually did it, and the road there runs through the White House, presidential campaigns, global corporate communications, and a moment that changes everything: a deathbed promise to finally write the books she’d carried since childhood. I loved this conversation because it’s equal parts craft talk and life talk, with the kind of honesty that makes you rethink what you’re postponing.<br/><br/>We get into her novel Comes Around, a gripping suspense story set in small-town Michigan where the pull of home is both comfort and threat. Michelle introduces Hallie McCarthy, a woman in her early 30s whose shiny startup life in San Francisco implodes under federal scrutiny. Hallie drives back to her hometown quietly, stops first at the cemetery, and tries to decide whether she can disappear again before anyone sees her. Then the tension tightens: something, or someone, may have followed her back. Alongside the mystery, we talk about the layered family dynamics that make the book hit hard, especially the older, wiser women who show up with backbone, love, and zero patience for self-pity.<br/><br/>Michelle also shares the surprising real-world spark for the opening scene, how she learned the publishing industry after years of “industry-adjacent” writing, and why treating writing like a job can unlock speed, consistency, and better stories. If you love suspense novels, family secrets, second chances, and strong female characters, you’ll want to put this on your list.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Looking for a faith that feels like home rather than a test you keep failing? We welcome author Tamara Woldridge to unpack her new guided study, Discover Your Amazing God, and the legacy of her late mother whose passion for the names of God shaped this work. What unfolds is a candid, warm journey from religious performance to covenant relationship—a shift that reframes how we see Scripture, ourselves, and a God who meets us in our mess.<br/><br/>Tamara shares the crossroads moment of choosing God amid her parents’ divorce, then helps dismantle the myths that keep so many of us at arm’s length: the fear of a punitive God, confusion about evil in a world of free will, and the ache some feel toward the word father. Through vivid, ancient images of covenant—like mixed salt that cannot be separated—she reveals a faithful God whose promises rest on His character, not our perfection. This lens ties the Old and New Testaments together and eases the tension between justice and mercy, showing a righteous judge who guards love rather than a tyrant hungry to punish.<br/><br/>We dive into the names of God—Elohim, Adonai, El Shaddai, El Roi, Yahweh, Shepherd, Shalom—and discover how each name opens a facet of God’s heart: Creator, Door to Life, All-Sufficient One, the God Who Sees, the One who guides and brings peace. For listeners carrying wounds from imperfect fathers, these names become stepping stones toward trust by looking at Jesus, who shows the Father perfectly. Along the way, Tamara speaks tenderly about grief and hope, holding fast to the God of the living and the identity we carry as sons and daughters in covenant, not commodities of culture.<br/><br/>Whether you’re a long-time churchgoer who craves more than rules, a new believer sick of striving, or a seeker drawn by curiosity, this conversation offers a steadying path. Come as you are, meet a God who is closer than your fear, and find your footing in a love that endures.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if peace, power, joy, and authority weren’t future promises but present realities you can live today? We sat down with author and discipler Jenny Sierra to unpack a bold, practical vision of our inheritance in Christ—one that doesn’t wait for heaven but transforms ordinary days right now. Jenny traces how a simple pattern in Scripture—verses about inheritance appearing everywhere—grew from a journaled list into a 99-part discipleship journal designed to help you access what already belongs to you.<br/><br/>We dive into the heart of formation: learning to memorize Scripture so it lives in you, exploring the richness of original Greek and Hebrew, and turning prayer into a living conversation that listens, declares, and heals. Jenny shares how Jesus modeled authority by speaking the Father’s words, and how believers today can pray with clarity, compassion, and confidence. We talk through envisioning prayers—beholding God’s promises as active in your life—and the way hope, biblically defined as expectation, reshapes anxious minds and weary hearts. This isn’t theory; it’s a toolkit for thriving instead of surviving.<br/><br/>Jenny’s years running discipleship homes taught her how identity is formed in the trenches: serving “the least,” walking with people through struggle, and grounding authority in love. She offers practical rhythms—meditating on the Word before sleep, reading slowly, and letting the Spirit personalize truth—that help faith move from head to heart to habit. If you’ve been white-knuckling belief, this conversation offers a gentler, stronger way: borrow Jesus’ faith, agree with his promises, and step into the life you already own in him.<br/><br/>If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs hope today, subscribe for more soul-deep conversations, and leave a review to help others find the show. Then tell us: which promise are you saying yes to first?

We sat down with author and discipler Jenny Sierra to unpack a bold, practical vision of our inheritance in Christ—one that doesn’t wait for heaven but transforms ordinary days right now. Jenny traces how a simple pattern in Scripture—verses about inheritance appearing everywhere—grew from a journaled list into a 99-part discipleship journal designed to help you access what already belongs to you.<br/><br/>We dive into the heart of formation: learning to memorize Scripture so it lives in you, exploring the richness of original Greek and Hebrew, and turning prayer into a living conversation that listens, declares, and heals. Jenny shares how Jesus modeled authority by speaking the Father’s words, and how believers today can pray with clarity, compassion, and confidence. We talk through envisioning prayers—beholding God’s promises as active in your life—and the way hope, biblically defined as expectation, reshapes anxious minds and weary hearts. This isn’t theory; it’s a toolkit for thriving instead of surviving.<br/><br/>Jenny’s years running discipleship homes taught her how identity is formed in the trenches: serving “the least,” walking with people through struggle, and grounding authority in love. She offers practical rhythms—meditating on the Word before sleep, reading slowly, and letting the Spirit personalize truth—that help faith move from head to heart to habit. If you’ve been white-knuckling belief, this conversation offers a gentler, stronger way: borrow Jesus’ faith, agree with his promises, and step into the life you already own in him.<br/><br/>If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs hope today, subscribe for more soul-deep conversations, and leave a review to help others find the show. Then tell us: which promise are you saying yes to first?

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if the most important thing about Jesus isn’t where he walked, but what he awakened? We sit down with author and pastor <a href='https://amzn.to/4aqUzn5'>Robert Ochs</a> to follow a forty-year trail from carpentry and sea training to ancient libraries and pulpits, tracing how a life of work, service, and study led him to reexamine the nature of Christ. Along the way, Robert reveals the moments that cracked open his curiosity—a gifted copy of The Mystical Life of Jesus from an agnostic friend, long stretches of quiet on the water, and an assignment in Athens that put him close to artifacts and the discipline of manuscript research.<br/><br/>Robert’s perspective is both reverent and adventurous. He explores the potential influence of the Essenes, suggests how prophetic schools could have shaped Jesus’ early formation, and draws from texts like the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Library to illuminate a message centered on inner transformation. Instead of a distant heaven, he points to the kingdom within; instead of fear-driven devotion, he argues for a spirituality measured by love, stillness, and conscious practice. His engineering background surfaces as he connects spiritual growth to ideas of energy, frequency, and vibration, while his pastoral heart keeps the conversation grounded in compassion and everyday choices.<br/><br/>We also talk about the realities of authorship—why purpose outlasts profit, how disenfranchised Christians are finding fresh hope in his work, and what his next book will tackle as it brings “secret teachings” into dialogue with modern issues. If you’ve ever felt loyal to a denomination but hungry for a deeper inner life, this candid, research-rich conversation offers a map: meditate, question, study, and let love recalibrate your way of being.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>The guest fell through, but the conversation we needed showed up anyway. What starts as a solo pivot becomes a candid look at why emotional performance so often replaces grounded compassion—and how a recent Minnesota tragedy revealed the script in real time. I unpack the psychology of meaning-making, the shift from “I do activism” to “I am an activist,” and the social rewards that elevate feelings as proof of virtue. When identity fuses with ideology, dissent reads as harm, analysis gets labeled cruel, and symbolism races ahead of facts.<br/><br/>We also talk about the role of institutionalized guilt and the anxiety it breeds: overperformance at vigils, faster condemnations, louder declarations that center the self while sidelining the person who was harmed. Media ecosystems compound it with binary frames that can’t hold nuance, turning complex events into morality plays. I walk through the Minnesota case details, why evidence matters, and how tragedies become props when narratives demand instant certainty. This isn’t a hit piece—it’s an attempt to understand how smart, sincere people can still drift into brittle certainty, where empathy without truth becomes manipulation and debate gives way to megaphones.<br/><br/>There’s a different path. Anchor emotions to something outside the self: responsibility, order, and humility. Let grief be sacred, not strategic. Ask what we know and what we don’t before we pronounce judgment. Real strength requires restraint; real compassion requires listening; real justice requires truth. If that resonates—or rankles—lean in. I want to hear your take, your pushback, and your added layers.<br/><br/>If this conversation challenged you or clarified something you’ve been feeling, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review so others can find it.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if the question holding you back isn’t “Why me?” but “Why not me?” We sit down with Dr. Ed Newton, lead pastor of Community Bible Church and author of Why Not You, to unpack a life-changing shift in identity and calling. Ed opens up about battling rejection, dyslexia, anxiety, and a season so heavy he almost didn’t make it through—then shows how counseling, community, and the Holy Spirit rebuilt courage from the inside out.<br/><br/>We explore why shame quietly fuses failure to identity, how guilt can lead to repentance without defining who you are, and why most of us carry “rent-free” voices from the past that still drive today’s choices. Ed shares a practical path to renew your mind, grounded in Romans 12: capture the thoughts, test the story, replace the lie with truth. He makes the case that your design is not an accident—image of God is your baseline—and even your supposed kryptonite can become a superpower when it’s surrendered to purpose.<br/><br/>The conversation lifts from the personal to the practical: a pregame talk to a losing basketball team becomes the spark for a book deal, a fresh reminder that calling is usually discovered through ordinary faithfulness. We talk imposter syndrome, true humility versus self-deprecation, and the leadership question that rewires self-awareness: What’s it like to be on the other side of me? Along the way, Ed points you to simple next steps—daily devotionals, teaching, and tools—to keep your inner script aligned with who God says you are.<br/><br/>If God will use someone today, why not you? Hit play, reframe the question, and take your next bold step.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>The ocean doesn’t care about your plan, and that’s exactly why we love it. We invited part of the Taylor Jean crew aboard the show to share how a handful of friends—bankers, builders, and tinkerers—built one of the most respected teams on the offshore tournament circuit. The story starts with a seasick freshwater angler who fell in love under a sky full of stars 80 miles out, and it unfolds into a masterclass on preparation, judgment, and trust when the seas get sporty.<br/><br/>We dig into the craft behind the glamour: why some captains believe certain hulls “raise fish,” how swapping to a Viking changed hookup rates with the same crew and tactics, and what it takes to rig for success when a nicked leader can cost six figures. Blaine walks us through the pre-season grind—thousands of hooks, fresh line on every rod, backup everything—and the game-day calls that make or break an eight-hour window. Jay connects the dots between life skills and fishing skills: communication, composure, and the discipline to do the boring work so the exciting moments go your way.<br/><br/>Then the ocean tests the plan. A rogue wave breaks over the house, the cockpit floods, a rod disappears, and the call is to head in—until a blue marlin eats and forces the team to execute in chaos. They finish the fight, release cleanly after lines out, and live to fish the next day. Along the way, we talk release-first ethics, guest anglers, and the traditions that stitch a team together, from first-billfish jumps to prank wars on rival boats. COVID-era adjustments—dinners delivered to the dock, fewer tents, more focus—sharpened their edge and reminded them why they chase fish in the first place.<br/><br/>If you’re curious about offshore sport fishing, tournament strategy, and the strange alchemy of passion plus preparation, this conversation puts you right in the cockpit. Hear about wildlife encounters like a giant loggerhead and the famed Dolphin 56, learn why weather windows dictate 120-mile runs, and see how camaraderie turns pressure into performance.

Blaine walks us through the pre-season grind—thousands of hooks, fresh line on every rod, backup everything—and the game-day calls that make or break an eight-hour window. Jay connects the dots between life skills and fishing skills: communication, composure, and the discipline to do the boring work so the exciting moments go your way.<br/><br/>Then the ocean tests the plan. A rogue wave breaks over the house, the cockpit floods, a rod disappears, and the call is to head in—until a blue marlin eats and forces the team to execute in chaos. They finish the fight, release cleanly after lines out, and live to fish the next day. Along the way, we talk release-first ethics, guest anglers, and the traditions that stitch a team together, from first-billfish jumps to prank wars on rival boats. COVID-era adjustments—dinners delivered to the dock, fewer tents, more focus—sharpened their edge and reminded them why they chase fish in the first place.<br/><br/>If you’re curious about offshore sport fishing, tournament strategy, and the strange alchemy of passion plus preparation, this conversation puts you right in the cockpit. Hear about wildlife encounters like a giant loggerhead and the famed Dolphin 56, learn why weather windows dictate 120-mile runs, and see how camaraderie turns pressure into performance. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves the water, and leave a review telling us your favorite moment—we read them all and it helps more anglers find the show.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What happens when a daughter writes two letters a week to her mom for ten years while breaking into one of the most male-dominated industries in America? You get a time-capsule memoir packed with real deals, real setbacks, and real strategies that still work. We’re joined by Dr. Mary Mitchell, who rose through the 1980s pulp, paper, and timber world negotiating 60 contracts at a time, feeding mills through strikes and shortages, and outmaneuvering intimidation with a calm, data-first style.<br/><br/>Mary walks us through the volatile market forces that defined the decade—interest rates near 20 percent, housing crashes, export booms—and how she turned chaos into leverage with scenario planning, meticulous market intel, and relentless relationship-building with everyone from tug dispatchers to scale houses. She unpacks her “plain vanilla” negotiation approach: ignore the theatrics, return to price and inventory, anticipate failure modes, and have ten counters ready when they hit. The stories are vivid: rescuing a mill with hog fuel dug from a forgotten valley, barging sawdust into San Francisco, and earning a rival’s backhanded compliment for never leaving a dime on the table.<br/><br/>We also talk about boundaries and resilience. Mary shares how she handled inappropriate advances by steering back to business, why preparation disarms bullies, and how confidence grows when you ask the “dumb” questions first. For students of negotiation, supply chain pros, and women navigating male-heavy fields, this conversation doubles as a practical playbook and a compelling narrative. Her letters are now a memoir, and her methods are as relevant to today’s complex markets as they were when strikes shut down mills and trucks lined the yard.<br/><br/>Grab the book on Kindle now, with paperback, hardback, and audio on the way. If the conversation helped you think sharper or negotiate braver, follow the show, share this episode with a friend, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find it.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>The hardest moments don’t just test our faith—they rewrite it. Author Elizabeth Harris sits with us to share how grief, motherhood, and the daily work of love turned her from religious motions to a living relationship with God. After losing her grandfather, she began writing letters to heaven, a humble practice that shifted from ink on a page to prayer with a pulse. Those pages became a map out of despair, teaching her to feel what is real, name it without shame, and surrender what she couldn’t fix.<br/><br/>Our talk moves from the silence of loss to the music of nature. Elizabeth describes standing in a tropical grove as wind changed tone across different trees, a simple moment that revealed a language of the Spirit—one breath expressed a thousand ways. That insight fueled her choice to blend poetry and prose, because some truths need the space of a line break and others need the steadiness of narrative. We also walk through her unexpected path into late motherhood and the seismic shift of raising a son with autism and cognitive delay. Denial gave way to an honest, gut-level lament that cleared room for peace. Along the way, she learned to see people who wound us as carrying their own special needs of the heart, and to live from the inside out instead of performing for the room.<br/><br/>Elizabeth now describes herself as a heartist, offering prayerful Reiki as gentle care that smooths stress and pours love without fanfare. Her throughline is disarmingly simple: be the child of God you are, and the rest finds its place. If you’ve been navigating grief, faith deconstruction, autism parenting, or the fear of sharing vulnerable work, this conversation offers practical hope and thoughtful perspective. Listen, breathe, and consider what love this moment is asking of you.<br/><br/>If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a short review—it helps more people find these stories.

As we unwrap the captivating narrative of Daniel Penny, a Marine Corps veteran caught in a whirlwind of legal and public scrutiny after a New York subway incident, we pose the provocative question: When is it right to step into the role of a hero? We take you through the layers of racial dynamics introduced by District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the broader moral dilemmas that accompany such actions. By examining Penny&apos;s motivations and the ensuing societal challenges, we offer a nuanced perspective on the complex reality of modern-day heroism.<br/><br/>Turning the spotlight on the shocking case of Luigi Mangione, we dive into the unexpected and mystifying developments surrounding his high-profile murder charge. The interplay of internet sleuths and conspiracy theories adds an intriguing layer to this saga, revealing the power of media influence and public perception. Amidst this chaos, we empathize with Penny’s emotional struggles as he grapples with the relentless backlash. This chapter highlights the psychological burden carried by individuals thrust into the limelight by circumstances beyond their control, and the polarized societal reactions that follow these events.<br/><br/>The episode then broadens its horizon to address America&apos;s conflicting attitudes toward violence and the global stage&apos;s perception of leadership. From the Syrian conflict and potential U.S. involvement to the curious case of mysterious drones over New Jersey, we weave through these diverse topics, inviting listeners to ponder their own theories and insights.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Can President Biden&apos;s military decisions reshape the global geopolitical landscape? We explore the implications of lifting restrictions on military aid to Ukraine, including long-range missiles, and the potential risks of escalating tensions with Russia. Delve into the complexities of Biden&apos;s executive powers and the National Security Council&apos;s influence on decisions impacting NATO. We also ponder the strategic gamesmanship that might be at play, with speculation about Biden&apos;s moves potentially complicating matters for any future Trump administration.<br/><br/>The conversation then turns to the dynamic world of political appointments and accountability. With President Trump&apos;s strategic and swift appointments, we examine concerns over transparency and document security in Washington. With fears of legal repercussions looming, what does this mean for figures in the political arena, and how might it influence the justice system?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can President Biden&apos;s military decisions reshape the global geopolitical landscape? We explore the implications of lifting restrictions on military aid to Ukraine, including long-range missiles, and the potential risks of escalating tensions with Russia. Delve into the complexities of Biden&apos;s executive powers and the National Security Council&apos;s influence on decisions impacting NATO. We also ponder the strategic gamesmanship that might be at play, with speculation about Biden&apos;s moves potentially complicating matters for any future Trump administration.<br/><br/>The conversation then turns to the dynamic world of political appointments and accountability. With President Trump&apos;s strategic and swift appointments, we examine concerns over transparency and document security in Washington. With fears of legal repercussions looming, what does this mean for figures in the political arena, and how might it influence the justice system? Engaging discussions reveal the public&apos;s desire for accountability and the importance of maintaining integrity in political processes.<br/><br/>Experience a lively discussion on the evolving relationship between media and the president-elect, the resurgence of patriotism within sports, and a sneak peek into Elsa Kurtz&apos;s &quot;Welcome to Chance&quot; series.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What if political interviews were high-stakes battles, testing the mettle of our leaders? On this episode of The Elsa Kurt Show, we scrutinize Vice President Harris&apos;s recent interview with Brett Baer, questioning her ability to hold her own in unscripted scenarios. We weigh in on the significance of steadfast leadership when facing formidable figures like Putin or Netanyahu and consider the broader implications of a leader&apos;s public demeanor and decision-making prowess.<br/><br/>The drama doesn&apos;t stop there. We turn our attention to the heated debate over transgender athletes in women&apos;s sports, exploring the fairness and dynamics at play. Are policies like Title IX being compromised, and what does this mean for female athletes worldwide? With staggering numbers of medals reportedly lost to trans competitors, we tackle the complex socio-political ramifications, contemplating the difference in impact between trans women in female sports and trans men in male sports, and what it holds for the future of athletics.<br/><br/>As the episode unfolds, we dive into legal and political controversies with a critical lens. We unravel the actions of key figures in the legal sphere, including a Georgia lawyer under scrutiny for his communications and billing practices. Meanwhile, Megan Kelly&apos;s sharp confrontation with misinformation is highlighted as a beacon of media accountability. To cap it all, we introduce the gripping narrative of Terry Davis in the Welcome to Chance series, promising an exciting blend of thrill and emotional depth. Join us for an episode packed with engaging narratives and insightful commentary on today&apos;s pressing issues.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What if political interviews were high-stakes battles, testing the mettle of our leaders? On this episode of The Elsa Kurt Show, we scrutinize Vice President Harris&apos;s recent interview with Brett Baer, questioning her ability to hold her own in unscripted scenarios. We weigh in on the significance of steadfast leadership when facing formidable figures like Putin or Netanyahu and consider the broader implications of a leader&apos;s public demeanor and decision-making prowess.<br/><br/>The drama doesn&apos;t stop there. We turn our attention to the heated debate over transgender athletes in women&apos;s sports, exploring the fairness and dynamics at play. Are policies like Title IX being compromised, and what does this mean for female athletes worldwide? With staggering numbers of medals reportedly lost to trans competitors, we tackle the complex socio-political ramifications, contemplating the difference in impact between trans women in female sports and trans men in male sports, and what it holds for the future of athletics.<br/><br/>As the episode unfolds, we dive into legal and political controversies with a critical lens. We unravel the actions of key figures in the legal sphere, including a Georgia lawyer under scrutiny for his communications and billing practices. Meanwhile, Megan Kelly&apos;s sharp confrontation with misinformation is highlighted as a beacon of media accountability. To cap it all, we introduce the gripping narrative of Terry Davis in the Welcome to Chance series, promising an exciting blend of thrill and emotional depth. Join us for an episode packed with engaging narratives and insightful commentary on today&apos;s pressing issues.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Can Marxism be fought with the tools of the Constitution? Gold star father and host of &quot;Constitution Solution,&quot; Mark Deluzio, brings his insights to the table, exploring the influence of Marxism on our society and the ways to resist it. We navigate the murky waters of alleged assassination attempts on President Donald Trump, questioning official narratives and the role of insider threats. With reflections on historical political violence, we consider the current climate&apos;s impact on political figures and draw lessons from past security failures.<br/><br/>The conversation takes a critical look at the current administration&apos;s approach to political violence, unity, and the narratives that might divide rather than unite us. We examine the hypocrisy of labeling political opponents in extreme terms, touching on foreign policy stances and the intricate ties between politics and military contractors. Remembering the service members lost during the Afghan pullout, we challenge claims of a casualty-free administration, scrutinizing the broader implications of military engagement and the influence of the military-industrial complex.<br/><br/>We venture into the realm of constitutional misconceptions and the power dynamics at play within federal agencies. Deluzio passionately discusses the Tenth Amendment and the concept of nullification, using historical examples to highlight state power against federal overreach. Our discussion expands to address the Federal Reserve&apos;s role in economic stability, exposing concerns about digital currency and inflation control. Through the lens of class warfare, we question societal perceptions of success and the lingering effects of greed and jealousy on economic policies.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What happens when two hurricanes wreak havoc in the southeastern United States, only for the federal aid response to be met with controversy and criticism? That&apos;s the question we tackle in this episode, where we dissect the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Joined by Clay Novak, we explore the heartwarming celebrity relief efforts led by Jason Aldean and Luke Combs, alongside the mounting pressure on FEMA amid claims of fund mismanagement against a backdrop of government denial. Our discussion doesn&apos;t shy away from the stark reality of misinformation and the stories of everyday heroes stepping up to fill the gaps left by official responses.<br/><br/>We venture into the world of political missteps and their impacts on disaster response. A certain political figure finds themselves under the spotlight, facing backlash for prioritizing media over ground presence during a crisis. In stark contrast, notable figures like former President Trump and Governor DeSantis showcase their leadership in the face of Hurricane Milton. As we share personal stories from families braving evacuation challenges in Florida, we also critically assess Vice President Harris&apos;s capacity to manage such crises, given past communication blunders and the potential complications of high-profile visits.<br/><br/>Finally, we peel back the layers on a shocking scandal involving Sean &quot;Diddy&quot; Combs, drawing unsettling parallels to the infamous Epstein case, and ponder its broader implications on Hollywood and politics. We also highlight a new Tucker Carlson documentary that captures the unwavering resilience of Trump&apos;s base amid an assassination attempt. With a heartfelt nod to the communities affected by the hurricanes, we offer our support and introduce listeners to Terry Davis&apos;s thrilling journey and the enchanting world of Elsa Kurt&apos;s &quot;Welcome to Chance&quot; series. This episode promises a compelling blend of disaster response, political scrutiny, and gripping narratives that will keep you engaged from start to finish.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What happens when two hurricanes wreak havoc in the southeastern United States, only for the federal aid response to be met with controversy and criticism? That&apos;s the question we tackle in this episode, where we dissect the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Joined by Clay Novak, we explore the heartwarming celebrity relief efforts led by Jason Aldean and Luke Combs, alongside the mounting pressure on FEMA amid claims of fund mismanagement against a backdrop of government denial. Our discussion doesn&apos;t shy away from the stark reality of misinformation and the stories of everyday heroes stepping up to fill the gaps left by official responses.<br/><br/>We venture into the world of political missteps and their impacts on disaster response. A certain political figure finds themselves under the spotlight, facing backlash for prioritizing media over ground presence during a crisis. In stark contrast, notable figures like former President Trump and Governor DeSantis showcase their leadership in the face of Hurricane Milton. As we share personal stories from families braving evacuation challenges in Florida, we also critically assess Vice President Harris&apos;s capacity to manage such crises, given past communication blunders and the potential complications of high-profile visits.<br/><br/>Finally, we peel back the layers on a shocking scandal involving Sean &quot;Diddy&quot; Combs, drawing unsettling parallels to the infamous Epstein case, and ponder its broader implications on Hollywood and politics. We also highlight a new Tucker Carlson documentary that captures the unwavering resilience of Trump&apos;s base amid an assassination attempt. With a heartfelt nod to the communities affected by the hurricanes, we offer our support and introduce listeners to Terry Davis&apos;s thrilling journey and the enchanting world of Elsa Kurt&apos;s &quot;Welcome to Chance&quot; series. This episode promises a compelling blend of disaster response, political scrutiny, and gripping narratives that will keep you engaged from start to finish.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

Clay Novak and I ponder this possibility as we highlight Vance&apos;s standout performance in a recent debate, suggesting he could be a frontrunner in the 2028 presidential race. We contrast this with our concerns about Governor Tim Walz&apos;s credibility, especially amidst allegations about his supposed presence during the Tiananmen Square protests. Our conversation takes a deep dive into the political tactics and strategies shaping both Republican and Democratic leadership, with a particular focus on the intriguing &quot;Harris-Biden&quot; versus &quot;Biden-Harris&quot; administration label.<br/><br/>We also explore the human impact of a Florida hurricane, sharing personal anecdotes of resilience and community support while examining the broader disaster response efforts. The episode tackles aesthetic influences in politics and the emerging dock worker strike on the East Coast, discussing its potential economic ripple effects. Politics isn&apos;t just about policy but also about presentation, and figures like Vance and Walz demonstrate how superficial factors can sway public opinion, especially with an election looming.<br/><br/>Wrapping up, we switch gears to global politics, touching on international leaders&apos; strategic interactions with U.S. elections, including the civil discourse observed in the recent VP debate. We also offer a sneak peek into Elsa Kurtz&apos;s much-anticipated &quot;Welcome to Chance,&quot; set to return next year, with captivating stories set in a charming New England town.

Join  Clay Novak, as he scrutinizes the National Security Leaders for America letter, which endorses Vice President Harris while conspicuously withholding support for President Trump. We&apos;ll critically examine the qualifications of these signatories, many of whom may not be the national security experts they claim to be. This episode questions the authenticity and motivations behind these endorsements, urging listeners to dig deeper into the backgrounds of those signing their names to such significant political statements.<br/><br/>Ever wondered about the real weight behind the title of &quot;ambassador&quot;? We&apos;ll dissect the political leanings and varied career paths of these individuals, many of whom are appointees from past administrations, particularly during the Obama and Clinton years. Additionally, our analysis spotlights 220 flag officers, including National Guard and Reserve generals, revealing how their diverse backgrounds, from medical to legal professions, might shape their political endorsements. This examination unravels the potential biases and broader implications that these endorsements carry for national security.<br/><br/>The episode doesn&apos;t stop there. We&apos;ll highlight pressing issues such as the escalating gang violence in Chicago due to Venezuelan gangs, and critique President Biden&apos;s leadership, particularly focusing on the absence of full cabinet meetings. The role of battleground states in the upcoming election and the influence of demographic voting patterns following Vice President Harris&apos;s nomination are also explored. We wrap up with my thoughts on Matt Walsh&apos;s thought-provoking film &quot;Am I Racist?&quot;, which challenges the intentions behind DEI initiatives and societal perceptions of racism in America.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Is Marxism making a subtle comeback in today’s society? In this episode, we bring on Mark Deluzio to dissect the origins and evolution of Marxism, tracing it back to Karl Marx’s days as a radical journalist. We break down the distinctions between Marxism, socialism, communism, and progressivism, and we question whether Marx&apos;s infamous ideas were a product of malevolence or mere ignorance. Mark and I delve into the nuances of these ideologies and their impact on modern discourse, emphasizing the importance of recognizing subtle Marxist messaging infiltrating today’s conversations.<br/><br/>Together, we scrutinize how Marxist principles have permeated contemporary government policies. From corporate bailouts to income taxation, we critique the deviations from America’s founding principles and explore how centralization of power and control over property and communication erode our individual rights. Our conversation underscores the significance of the U.S. Constitution, rooted in Christian values, as a bulwark against the spread of Marxist and socialist ideologies. We bring historical examples from the Soviet Union to North Korea to illustrate the catastrophic failures of these systems.<br/><br/>To wrap up, we tackle the global implications of these ideologies, discussing the interplay between communism and globalism. We analyze the manipulative language used by political figures to sway public opinion and the moral and spiritual dimensions underpinning these struggles. Reflecting on figures like Trump and Elon Musk, we ponder on the importance of critical thinking and collective action to safeguard our freedoms.

I recount the spontaneous decision to host a lively watch party despite the logistical hurdles, while Clay shares his preference for an undistracted viewing experience. We scrutinize the candidates&apos; antics, particularly one who struggled with the split-screen format, turning the debate into a spectacle rather than a meaningful exchange of ideas.<br/><br/>Switching gears, we tackle the vice presidential showdown, highlighting the standout performance of one participant who masterfully balanced composure and strategy, albeit with heavily scripted content. We delve into her attempts to unsettle her opponent and the moderators&apos; glaring lack of live fact-checking. Our critique doesn&apos;t shy away from her perpetuation of falsehoods about major events like Charlottesville and January 6th, and we analyze a crucial moment where she addressed the former president&apos;s actions.<br/><br/>Our episode continues with a deep dive into the pervasive issue of misinformation in debates and the missed opportunities for effective rebuttal. We evaluate how key figures strategically spread false narratives and the troubling implications of unchallenged inaccuracies. Analyzing the debate between Kamala Harris and her opponent, we explore how neither managed to decisively win over undecided voters. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the surprising political influence of celebrity endorsements, especially Taylor Swift&apos;s unexpected support, and its potential impact on the upcoming election.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Can democracy survive in a polarized world? Join us this week as we celebrate Clay&apos;s 51st birthday with some humor about AARP mail, before diving into the sobering political climate in Venezuela. We&apos;ll compare President Maduro&apos;s election rigging and the arrest of opposition leaders to the state of democracy in the United States, pondering the potential repercussions of similar actions here. The conversation then pivots to the importance of national loyalty over political division, particularly in the context of former President Trump.<br/><br/>As the episode progresses, we tackle the escalating conflict in Israel and the occupied territories. We discuss the heartbreaking execution of six Israeli hostages by Hamas, the massive protests in Jerusalem, and Prime Minister Netanyahu&apos;s precarious political situation. Our analysis doesn&apos;t stop there— we&apos;ll dive into the varied reactions of the global Jewish community and the polarized perspectives on how to handle the conflict, from aggressive military actions to urgent calls for peace. The discussion also touches on the moral and strategic dilemmas faced by leaders and the potential involvement of the U.S. in hostage rescue operations.<br/><br/>Finally, we address a disturbing incident involving US Marines in Turkey and its geopolitical implications, including changes in military protocols for safety abroad. We&apos;ll critique the perceived incompetence of a political figure&apos;s team and share experiences with social media censorship, shedding light on the challenges of rebuilding an online presence after a hack.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Is the Democratic Party abandoning primary elections for vice-presidential nominees? This baffling situation sets the stage for our return after a two-week hiatus on the Elsa Kurt Show. We tackle the controversial actions of a public figure who has relentlessly lied about his military service, revealing the broader impact of such deceit on leadership integrity. The spotlight then shifts to Tim Walz&apos;s behavior, including an incident with his son that sparked outrage among veterans and the general public. We critique Walz’s anti-Second Amendment views and misleading military claims, and question what his alignment with socialist policies means for the future.<br/><br/>Our discussions take a deeper dive into the complex political strategies at play, including Kamala Harris&apos;s association with Tim Walz and the urgent political climate with just 38 days until the elections. We dissect the dynamics of recent speeches and events, such as RFK Jr.&apos;s impactful address that resonated with moderates and independents, and the media backlash faced by Cheryl Hines due to her support for RFK Jr. We examine the influence of political and social issues in Hollywood, noting shifts in political alignments among notable figures and the broader implications for the industry.<br/><br/>The episode doesn’t shy away from critical global issues either. We scrutinize the unfolding situation in the Middle East, particularly the conflict between Israel and Iran, and discuss the kind of leadership needed to navigate these turbulent times. The conversation also addresses the repercussions of DEI policies on military recruitment, underscoring the Navy&apos;s recent struggles and the geopolitical stakes involved. As we wrap up, we touch on the importance of maintaining civility in social media interactions among friends and family with differing political views.

This episode kicks off with a deep dive into the unexpected political maneuver that has everyone buzzing. We scrutinize the implications of Harris’s choice, particularly focusing on the fallout for Josh Shapiro and the strategic ins-and-outs of Ohio&apos;s ballot requirements. Expect an interesting detour where we share a laugh over the classic film &quot;Tommy Boy&quot; before steering back to the charged political landscape.<br/><br/>We then put the spotlight on Tim Walz, Governor of Minnesota, dissecting his controversial handling of the 2020 Minneapolis riots and his provocative stance on abortion laws. We also dig into accusations surrounding his military service and recommend the documentary &quot;The Fall of Minneapolis&quot; for those craving more context. Our discussion covers Kamala Harris&apos;s recent statements that have sparked debate within the Democratic Party, the discontent among diverse voters, and the sharp critiques from political veterans like James Carville.<br/><br/>Get ready for an exploration of Venezuela’s economic collapse and how it serves as a cautionary tale for U.S. policies. We also cover the latest geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, the reversal of a shocking plea deal in a terrorism case, and the Olympic boxing controversy involving athletes with XY chromosomes.

This week on The Elsa Kurt Show with Clay Novak, we unpack the turbulent state of global affairs and how President Trump has stood as a consistent figure amidst the turmoil. We shift our focus to the Olympics, uncovering a spectrum of issues overshadowing the event, from inadequate athlete accommodations to accusations of spying. You&apos;ll hear about the removal of a Brazilian surfer&apos;s board depicting Christ and the creative ways athletes express their faith despite restrictions.<br/><br/>Next, we confront the fallout from the controversial Olympics ceremony. Representatives from various countries faced disastrous conditions during what was later called an &quot;artistic performance rooted in Greek mythology&quot;—after widespread backlash. We challenge the perceived hypocrisy in public reactions and address the frustration many Christians feel when their grievances are dismissed. Misconceptions about Christianity are clarified, emphasizing the faith&apos;s core values of grace and equality.<br/><br/>In the final segment, we tackle the contentious Supreme Court nomination process and the proposed changes that could disrupt the balance of the judiciary. We explore recent controversies and the political maneuvering behind these proposals, including the positioning of Vice President Kamala Harris for future leadership. The episode concludes with a critical look at political manipulation and the pervasive problem of misinformation, highlighting how mainstream media skews public understanding of political dynamics.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What happens in the White House when the President resigns without warning? Join us on the Elsa Kurt Show with Clay Novak as we unravel the astonishing resignation of President Biden, who stepped down via a letter on X, leaving the nation in confusion and uncertainty. Without endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris or holding a press conference, Biden&apos;s abrupt departure has sparked intense debate over the authenticity of the announcement and the future of American leadership. We&apos;ll break down the immediate chaos, from the scrutiny of the Secret Service to the alleged medical incident on Air Force One reported by Laura Lomer.<br/><br/>As the dust settles, questions about the state of the current U.S. administration arise, highlighting a glaring lack of coordination and leadership. We&apos;ll examine the implications of President Biden&apos;s mental and physical health on national and global security, the conspicuous absence of both him and Vice President Harris during critical moments, and the Democratic Party&apos;s struggle to find a clear path forward. The conversation will also delve into the potential candidates like Gavin Newsom, J.B. Pritzker, Hillary Clinton, and Michelle Obama, amidst a backdrop of internal party conflict and strategic maneuvering as the convention nears.<br/><br/>Finally, we shift our focus to the broader landscape of political engagement and inclusivity. We&apos;ll emphasize the importance of civic duty, urging listeners to stay involved despite the relentless news cycle. The episode also critiques exclusionary practices within political spheres, advocating for a more inclusive approach, illustrated by the example of an OnlyFans model speaking at the RNC. This episode is a call to action for active participation in shaping the political future, underscoring the imperative for clarity and leadership in these unprecedented times.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

We weigh the benefits of his articulate and intelligent nature against the challenges of party unity and optics, providing a nuanced look at what Vance brings to the table.

Join Elsa Kurt and Clay Novak as we peel back the layers of Chicago politics, starting with a reflection on the 1968 Democratic National Convention and drawing parallels to the current political climate. Our in-depth discussion ranges from the tragic statistics of the recent Fourth of July weekend to Mayor Brandon Johnson&apos;s polarizing remarks and the city&apos;s struggle to balance resources between residents and new immigrants. <br/><br/>We then broaden our scope, scrutinizing the impenetrable power structures in cities like Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Are genuine community efforts being deliberately sabotaged? This chapter uncovers the disturbing reality behind local governance and explores the public&apos;s mounting frustration. We also highlight NEA President Becky Pringle&apos;s fervent speech, addressing critical issues such as affirmative action and student loan debt, and how these topics are shaking the political landscape.<br/><br/>Finally, we turn a critical eye to the state of modern journalism. With the recent controversy surrounding Andrea Lawful Sanders&apos; pre-coordinated interview with President Biden, we examine the erosion of journalistic integrity and its implications for public trust. From the over-sensationalized 24/7 news cycle to the nostalgic days of straightforward reporting, we discuss the urgent need for a return to honest, investigative journalism.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What happens when the cognitive capabilities of a leader are put to the test on a national stage? In our latest episode, we dissect the recent debate between President Trump and President Biden, focusing on the glaring differences in their presence and performance. From Biden&apos;s troubling entrance to Trump&apos;s moments of surprising restraint, we scrutinize the ethical implications of Biden&apos;s continued participation and the human tragedy behind his condition. Moreover, we commend CNN for achieving a fair moderation, a rare feat that allowed both candidates to navigate the debate without bias.<br/><br/>We dig deeper into the political strategies at play, examining Biden&apos;s handling of COVID-19 measures, Medicare negotiations, and tax reforms. Through a critical lens, we explore how preparation and mental acuity shape public perception. We also delve into the internal dynamics of Biden&apos;s campaign, highlighting the influential role of Dr. Jill Biden and the tension within the Democratic Party. Speculations about potential candidates, should Biden step down, add another layer of complexity to the political landscape, with figures like Gavin Newsom and Robert Kennedy Jr. emerging as possible contenders.<br/><br/>As we shift gears, we tackle Independence Day safety and celebrate the immigrant heritage that defines America&apos;s spirit. We share personal stories and heartfelt tributes to veterans and legal immigrants, reminding listeners of the importance of community and the freedoms we cherish. Whether it&apos;s reflecting on Project 2025, the polarizing voices in Hollywood, or the significance of the 4th of July, this episode provides a comprehensive, thought-provoking look at the current political and cultural climate.

In this episode of the Elsa Kurt Show, we sit down with Clay Novak to unravel the profound consequences of the 1974 US-Saudi Arabia oil agreement coming to an end. This pact, pivotal in anchoring the US dollar and cementing military and economic alliances, now leaves a void with potential for cryptocurrency and gold to rise in its place. Join us as we dissect the ramifications for international trade and express our concerns over the current administration&apos;s approach to this seismic shift.<br/><br/>Is the Biden administration projecting strength or signaling vulnerability on the world stage? We critically assess the administration&apos;s responses to international military threats and diplomatic challenges, pointing out moments that reveal a concerning lack of deterrence against foreign adversaries. From President Biden&apos;s public gaffes during key events to the administration&apos;s attempts to spin these missteps, we paint a vivid picture of how these actions—and inactions—impact America&apos;s global standing. We also touch on a remarkable clip of former President Obama humorously musing about a shadow presidency, probing its implications for the current administration&apos;s image.<br/><br/>Can President Biden hold his own against Trump in a head-to-head debate? We explore the high stakes of the upcoming presidential debate, questioning Biden&apos;s endurance and cognitive readiness for the grueling 90-minute showdown. We delve into the strategic elements of debate rules and speculate on Trump&apos;s game plan to leverage Biden&apos;s potential vulnerabilities. Wrapping up the episode, we tackle the contentious issue of cultural recognition months, debating whether they foster unity or sow division within society. With a nod to Morgan Freeman&apos;s perspective on collective history, we challenge listeners to rethink how we celebrate our shared heritage.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Is Hunter Biden&apos;s conviction a smokescreen for other pressing issues? This week, we kick off our episode with a light-hearted jab at our family’s viewing habits before diving into Hunter Biden&apos;s recent felony conviction. We dissect the implications of this high-profile case and examine whether it serves as a media diversion. Are we being distracted from more significant issues? Tune in to hear our take on the public&apos;s perception of the Biden family&apos;s ongoing controversies and the likelihood of Hunter facing any real consequences.<br/><br/>Can we hold Dr. Anthony Fauci accountable for the pandemic&apos;s fallout? We tackle the fiery criticisms aimed at Fauci, scrutinizing his role in the COVID-19 pandemic and the contentious public health measures that followed. From societal impacts like mental health struggles and children&apos;s developmental issues to the controversial misclassification of vaccines, we leave no stone unturned. Could these decisions have long-term health repercussions? We&apos;ll confront the feelings of betrayal and discuss what accountability should look like.<br/><br/>Are we standing on the brink of a new age of censorship and AI overreach? Wrapping up the episode, we confront the alarming incidents of online censorship, such as a YouTube video takedown over ivermectin discussions. We ponder the erosion of freedom of speech before shifting to the creeping presence of AI in our daily lives, highlighted by Apple’s latest moves and Elon Musk’s vocal opposition. We also reflect on President Biden&apos;s recent public gaffes at the D-Day anniversary, critique the rising anti-white sentiment with examples like John Leguizamo&apos;s controversial ad, and finally, celebrate your continued engagement with our show.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Can a historic conviction reshape the future of American politics? Join us as we navigate the seismic repercussions of former President Trump&apos;s unanimous guilty verdict on all 34 charges. We share our personal reactions to this unprecedented event and its implications on Trump&apos;s future as a potential presidential candidate. We also dissect the contrasting strategies of the DOJ and New York City in handling this landmark case, while gauging the public&apos;s mixed emotions and uncertainties in its aftermath.<br/><br/>The conviction has sparked a financial surge for Trump&apos;s campaign, with donations reportedly surpassing $200 million. We explore the polarized responses, ranging from die-hard supporters to conservatives who might now reconsider their stance. Delving into election impacts, we speculate on the logistics and repercussions of possibly moving the Republican National Convention ahead of Trump’s sentencing. Alongside this, we scrutinize President Biden&apos;s reaction to Trump’s claim of being a political prisoner, illustrating the escalating political tension.<br/><br/>Our discussion shifts to the lighter yet profound social media discourse surrounding the Stormy Daniels controversy, questioning the integrity of the justice system and the potential fallout if Trump is re-elected. We then spotlight the rising stars of the WNBA, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, and examine the gender and racial biases affecting their careers. The episode concludes with reflections on the restructuring at The Washington Post and the significance of remembering D-Day 80 years later.

We uncover the chaos behind the DNC&apos;s scramble to nominate President Biden electronically ahead of their planned convention. This unprecedented move raises critical questions about the future of political conventions and stirs fears of urban protests in Chicago, driven by local discontent with the party&apos;s policies. We&apos;ll dissect the logistical mess and its broader implications on the political landscape.<br/><br/>Have you ever wondered how media manipulation can twist election narratives and shape public opinion? From the contentious history of election outcomes challenged by leaders across the spectrum, to the media&apos;s role in amplifying these disputes, our deep dive into this phenomenon will shed light on the biases that influence voter perceptions. We&apos;ll also break down the closing arguments in the ongoing Trump trial, capturing the diverse reactions from legal experts. This segment aims to unravel the complex web of politics, media, and public discourse.<br/><br/>Hunter Biden&apos;s legal troubles are far from over, and we question the timing of President Biden&apos;s visit to a key witness in Hunter&apos;s trial. Could this be a case of political interference? We explore the controversial gun charges against Hunter and the broader implications for the Biden administration. Additionally, we bring attention to the movement in Oregon to redraw state lines and the alarming trend of unsupervised teen parties at New Jersey shore towns.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>When the world was grappling with the pandemic, Peter Gillooly watched his wife, a dedicated RN, navigate the tumultuous healthcare landscape. His story, which we unpack in our latest episode, is not only one of resilience but also innovation, as he co-founded the Wellness Company. They are carving a path to a healthcare system that prioritizes wellness and patient advocacy, addressing the systemic mismanagement witnessed during COVID-19. From discussing the political influence on medical practices to the psychological ramifications of fear-based public health measures, this conversation is a deep exploration of the current state and future of healthcare.<br/><br/>Turning to the practical side of preparedness, our episode delves into the significance of emergency medical kits—an effort by the Wellness Company to put health back into the hands of individuals. Peter and I examine the diverse array of kits they offer, designed to tackle everything from basic medical emergencies to travel-specific ailments. Imagine the confidence and comfort that comes with having the right tools to address health concerns quickly at home. We highlight the company&apos;s commitment to making these life-saving kits accessible and refillable, ensuring that quality healthcare is always within reach.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>As the dust settles from the helicopter crash that claimed the life of the Iranian president, our latest episode grapples with the fallout and the delicate geopolitical tightrope teetering before us. We&apos;re not just scratching the surface; we&apos;re dissecting the complex layers of international politics, the surge for change by Iran&apos;s youth, and the daunting task the West faces in filling the gaps in intelligence. The conversation then pivots to the homefront, where political tides may be turning within the Democratic Party. We speculate on the machinations that could alter the Democratic presidential ticket and the reverberations this could have on the political landscape.<br/><br/>We examine the pendulum swing back toward traditional values, amid the cacophony of celebrity opinions and the media&apos;s malleability. The exchange of blows between Hollywood heavyweights and critiques of gender roles sparks a broader dialogue on society&apos;s evolving norms and where the majority finds common ground.<br/><br/>The episode reaches a sobering conclusion as we honor the gravitas of Memorial Day, a time to reflect on the sacrifices of soldiers who have laid down their lives in service to their country. We scrutinize the International Criminal Court&apos;s contentious decisions and their broader implications for justice and accountability on the world stage.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ever been to a graduation where the provost turns your hard-earned name into a comedy skit?

So, we kicked off the conversation with a mix of humor and empathy for the graduates who expected a solemn recognition but got an unexpected twist. We then sifted through emotions and debated the financial repercussions of such slip-ups. Should there be compensation for dampening what&apos;s meant to be a proud moment? Listen in for a lively back-and-forth on the weight of words in times of accomplishment.<br/><br/>Navigating through the tangled web of international politics, we dissected the complex relationship between the U.S., Israel, and Hamas. The episode took a critical stance on the media&apos;s portrayal of conflict, scrutinizing the accuracy of casualty reports and the ripple effects of misinformation. Without a guest to hold back our candid opinions, we tackled the controversial &apos;free booze&apos; program, questioning the logic and efficacy of such an approach to addiction treatment. Our scrutiny extended to the broader implications of these narratives and the responsibilities of those in power, stirring the pot on contentious issues with the aim of shedding light on the deeper intricacies of these global challenges.<br/><br/>Wrapping up, we turned our attention to less-discussed border security concerns—this time, along the U.S.&apos;s northern frontier. We examined the uptick in migrant encounters and pondered the influence of leadership policies on both sides of the border. The stakes are high, with the shifting power dynamics within the Democratic Party and census strategies poised to reshape the political landscape. We wrapped things up with a sincere thanks to you, our listeners, for embarking on this journey of exploration and exchange.

Join us as we navigate the complexities of Trump&apos;s trials and the reverberations they could send through our nation&apos;s future.<br/><br/>The episode doesn&apos;t shy away from controversial waters as we cast our gaze on the stirring waves of civil unrest and its impact on the pillars of society—education and employment. Listen as we explore the undercurrents of student protests and the unexpected consequences of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives that ripple through academia to the sports field. We tackle the hard questions: Who&apos;s really behind these protests, and what are the ramifications for those caught in the crossfire, from withheld grades to the potential tainting of future job prospects?<br/><br/>Finally, we navigate the delicate balance between fair competition and inclusion, examining the adjustments needed to accommodate diverse gender identities in sports. It&apos;s a complex web of cause and effect where well-intentioned policies sometimes backfire, sparking intense debate and the possibility of creating a whole new competition category. Join us for a robust discussion that cuts through the noise and dives deep into the heart of these societal quandaries that shape our world in ways we can&apos;t ignore.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

It’s these very moments that set the stage for a hearty discussion on the critical need for truth in leadership, and we don&apos;t hold back. Clay and I dissect the wider implications of political narratives, casting a light on the intriguing and often murky waters of authenticity in public discourse.<br/><br/>Navigating the complexities of voter behavior and party loyalty, we tackle the tough questions: How do voters decide in a landscape where party platforms often overshadow the individual candidates? And what ripples do political missteps send across the aisle? The conversation takes a turn through the corridors of power, examining the tumultuous events within the GOP, from the ousting of Speaker Kevin McCarthy to the inner workings of party divisions. Listen in as we parse the significance of foreign flags in Congress and question the symbolism behind these acts, pondering the potential repercussions for domestic and international policies.<br/><br/>Lastly, we step onto the battleground of free speech and bias in the media. As we dissect the explosive dynamics of campus protests and the ongoing debate over hate speech, you&apos;ll find no stone left unturned. The episode rounds out with a piercing look into the heart of public funding for media, scrutinizing the debate over networks like NPR amidst accusations of bias and calls for defunding. With a mix of balanced perspective and unflinching critique, Clay and I aim to shed light on these pressing issues, challenging you to think deeper and stay informed.

    <description><![CDATA[<p> This episode sees us tackling the Easter Proclamation Controversy head-on, weighing the significance of intertwining Transgender Day of Visibility with a day of religious reverence. Our discussion isn&apos;t just about the surface-level frictions; it&apos;s a deep exploration of the undercurrents of dignity, respect, and the implications for future presidential proclamations. Plus, we’re unwrapping the curious case of the Easter Bunny incident and what it reveals about the image curation of the President.<br/><br/>As California takes a bold step towards banning gas vehicles, we’re here to question the practicality and underlying motives. We unpack the monumental challenges faced by the Golden State as it transitions to a greener future and the potential ripple effects on the economy and everyday Americans. <br/><br/>Turning our focus to the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris&apos;s role amidst succession speculations becomes a hot topic. We dissect her strategic positioning and involvement in key issues, offering a unique perspective on the political chess game at play.<br/><br/>We address the recent shake up over at The Daily Wire, from where outspoken and popular pundit Candace Owens has left amidst allegations of anti-Semitism following very public disagreements between her and Ben Shapiro.<br/><br/>Finally, we zoom out to the global stage, scrutinizing Israel&apos;s military action in Syria and the ISIS-K attack in Moscow. These international incidents prompt us to consider the various approaches to terrorism and the stark contrasts in global political responses.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> This episode sees us tackling the Easter Proclamation Controversy head-on, weighing the significance of intertwining Transgender Day of Visibility with a day of religious reverence. Our discussion isn&apos;t just about the surface-level frictions; it&apos;s a deep exploration of the undercurrents of dignity, respect, and the implications for future presidential proclamations. Plus, we’re unwrapping the curious case of the Easter Bunny incident and what it reveals about the image curation of the President.<br/><br/>As California takes a bold step towards banning gas vehicles, we’re here to question the practicality and underlying motives. We unpack the monumental challenges faced by the Golden State as it transitions to a greener future and the potential ripple effects on the economy and everyday Americans. <br/><br/>Turning our focus to the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris&apos;s role amidst succession speculations becomes a hot topic. We dissect her strategic positioning and involvement in key issues, offering a unique perspective on the political chess game at play.<br/><br/>We address the recent shake up over at The Daily Wire, from where outspoken and popular pundit Candace Owens has left amidst allegations of anti-Semitism following very public disagreements between her and Ben Shapiro.<br/><br/>Finally, we zoom out to the global stage, scrutinizing Israel&apos;s military action in Syria and the ISIS-K attack in Moscow. These international incidents prompt us to consider the various approaches to terrorism and the stark contrasts in global political responses. Our heartfelt thanks go out to you, our listeners, for joining us through these intricate discussions, and we invite you to stay connected as we navigate the compelling currents of today&apos;s political and social landscape.

While Elsa&apos;s out, Clay is pulling back the curtain on the dismissal of Ronna McDaniel from NBC and the clash over journalistic integrity. It&apos;s a deep dive into the power play of network giants and the battle for a diverse media landscape that&apos;s as gripping as it is crucial for our democracy. And when it comes to gun rights, you bet we&apos;re unpacking the latest on legislation and the Second Amendment - no holds barred.<br/><br/>Amidst a nation divided on firearm ownership, this episode doesn&apos;t shy away from the tough conversations. From the proposed assault weapons ban to the complexities surrounding red flag laws, Clay is peeling back every layer. And speaking of action, or lack thereof, Vice President Harris&apos;s role in gun violence prevention gets put under the microscope. <br/>As we wrap up, we&apos;re not just talking guns and politics. Clay steers us through the maze of infrastructure woes and the fine line between prosecution and persecution, all while debunking the spread of misinformation - especially on social media. The spotlight&apos;s on Sean &quot;Puff Daddy&quot; Combs&apos; recent ordeal to illustrate the wildfire that is online speculation.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Could the unraveling of a Caribbean nation signal a call to action for the global community? Our latest episode probes the depths of Haiti&apos;s escalating crisis, where the assassination of a president and the rise of gang dominion have left the country teetering on the brink. We take you through the heart-wrenching reality faced by Haitians every day, examining the international quandary over intervention versus aid.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Could the unraveling of a Caribbean nation signal a call to action for the global community? Our latest episode probes the depths of Haiti&apos;s escalating crisis, where the assassination of a president and the rise of gang dominion have left the country teetering on the brink. We take you through the heart-wrenching reality faced by Haitians every day, examining the international quandary over intervention versus aid.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Amid the warmth of family news, with the anticipation of becoming a grandparent again, we segue into a deep-dive exploration of the latest CDC guideline revisions for COVID-19. The reception of these updated recommendations paints a vivid picture of a society in transition, where a virus once feared now simmers down to the level of the common cold. We consider the lasting marks this pandemic will leave on our culture—will future generations muse over an era where social distancing markers are curious relics of the past?<br/><br/>Navigating through the political landscape, our dialogue turns reflective as we analyze the toll of government policies on societal health and personal relationships. Witnessing the aging process of our community members post-isolation and acknowledging the emotional strains brought on by the pandemic, we stress the significance of accountability from elected officials, particularly with the November elections on the horizon. The skepticism towards recent government actions raises questions about the preservation of our essential infrastructure and highlights the need for a critical post-election review.<br/><br/>Concluding our thought-stirring conversation, we tackle the contentious topic of drug legalization and its ripple effect on society, weighing the potential hazards against the perceived benefits. Delving into the strategy behind U.S. humanitarian aid to Gaza, we scrutinize the political and optics-driven nature of government decisions. The boldness emerging within the Democratic Party, challenging traditional stances on the Israel-Gaza conflict, signals a shift in the status quo.

    <description><![CDATA[<p> Starting the show off with a warm welcome and some laughs as we discuss winter blues, late-night social stamina, and the thrill of skydiving with seasoned veterans—a reminder of the vibrant lives we lead outside the studio.<br/><br/>Navigating from the highs of personal adventure to the sobering realities of global politics, this episode doesn&apos;t shy away from confronting the gripping story of Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny. His tale is a stark reminder of the sacrifices some make in pursuit of justice and the echoes of historical political silencing. We then pivot to the geopolitical chessboard, where NATO&apos;s support for Ukraine, and Denmark&apos;s bold commitment, signals a seismic shift in international dynamics. Through this lens, we analyze the delicate balance of power and the resounding message sent by nations banding together in a time of crisis.<br/><br/>But in a world increasingly shaped by ones and zeros, we&apos;re also peering into the digital abyss that AI presents. Ethical dilemmas abound, from the creation of synthetic media to the AI-powered scripts turning the film industry on its head. How do we embrace the medical miracles brought forth by AI while safeguarding against the darker potentials of this rapidly evolving technology?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Starting the show off with a warm welcome and some laughs as we discuss winter blues, late-night social stamina, and the thrill of skydiving with seasoned veterans—a reminder of the vibrant lives we lead outside the studio.<br/><br/>Navigating from the highs of personal adventure to the sobering realities of global politics, this episode doesn&apos;t shy away from confronting the gripping story of Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny. His tale is a stark reminder of the sacrifices some make in pursuit of justice and the echoes of historical political silencing. We then pivot to the geopolitical chessboard, where NATO&apos;s support for Ukraine, and Denmark&apos;s bold commitment, signals a seismic shift in international dynamics. Through this lens, we analyze the delicate balance of power and the resounding message sent by nations banding together in a time of crisis.<br/><br/>But in a world increasingly shaped by ones and zeros, we&apos;re also peering into the digital abyss that AI presents. Ethical dilemmas abound, from the creation of synthetic media to the AI-powered scripts turning the film industry on its head. How do we embrace the medical miracles brought forth by AI while safeguarding against the darker potentials of this rapidly evolving technology? As we close out this episode, we offer a genuine thanks to you, our engaged listeners, and to the folks at Shoot Angry Inc. for inspiring this rich tapestry of topics.

Clay is fresh off an invigorating journey with the Phantom Airborne Brigade, and we&apos;re here to dissect the whispers and the roars in the halls of power.  We&apos;ll be unraveling the complex threads of leadership, from President Biden&apos;s contested cognitive capacity to the refusal of taking a cognitive test that fans the flames of transparency debates. This episode plumbs the depths of what these revelations mean for the presidency and how it could tilt the scales for upcoming elections.<br/><br/>The halls of power reek of arrogance and the stench of corruption seems to linger around every corner, but we&apos;re not just pointing fingers—we&apos;re laying out the evidence. We dissect the implications of mishandled confidential documents across the political spectrum, from Biden to Trump, and the puzzling potential disqualification of Fanni Willis &amp; questioning how arrogance can cloud judgment and accountability. And amidst this political theater, we cast a critical eye on Supreme Court decisions and the vital role of integrity and accountability, even when it comes to polarizing figures like former President Trump.<br/><br/>But it&apos;s not all about the political skirmishes. We also take a sober look at the health of a key leader—Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. His well-being is paramount, not just for him but for the nation&apos;s security. As we contemplate the need for stability in leadership, we switch gears to offer you a play-by-play on the recent Super Bowl, critiquing everything from the pulse-pounding overtime to the heavy hand of social activism in sports.

As we sift through Mark Zuckerberg&apos;s apology and the haunting reality of child exploitation online, this episode promises a deep understanding of the challenges faced by parents and policymakers alike.

We&apos;re not just analyzing problems here; we&apos;re also scrutinizing potential solutions, such as child-safe smartphones and the role of governmental oversight.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Dealing with tragedy and the political ramifications that follow is a journey we often wish we never had to take. Yet, here we are, addressing the gut-wrenching loss of three American service members, fallen in the line of duty from a drone strike near the Syrian border. We pay tribute to the lives of Sgt. William Jerome Rivers, Specialist Kennedy Laiden Sanders, and Specialist Brianna Alexandria Moffitt, delving into the nuanced response from President Biden that steers clear of directly naming the Iran-backed militants involved. Our discussion also navigates the choppy waters of military and political responses that could unfold from such an incident, dissecting the complex considerations our leaders face in these heartrending scenarios.<br/><br/>The episode further transitions to the controversial stance of Texas Governor Abbott, who&apos;s taken a bold step in directing his National Guard in ways that push the envelope on states&apos; rights and federal oversight.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dealing with tragedy and the political ramifications that follow is a journey we often wish we never had to take. Yet, here we are, addressing the gut-wrenching loss of three American service members, fallen in the line of duty from a drone strike near the Syrian border. We pay tribute to the lives of Sgt. William Jerome Rivers, Specialist Kennedy Laiden Sanders, and Specialist Brianna Alexandria Moffitt, delving into the nuanced response from President Biden that steers clear of directly naming the Iran-backed militants involved. Our discussion also navigates the choppy waters of military and political responses that could unfold from such an incident, dissecting the complex considerations our leaders face in these heartrending scenarios.<br/><br/>The episode further transitions to the controversial stance of Texas Governor Abbott, who&apos;s taken a bold step in directing his National Guard in ways that push the envelope on states&apos; rights and federal oversight. We ponder the lasting effects of this battle over jurisdiction, considering the historical perspective and current events that suggest a potential escalation in the tension between state and federal powers. On a different front, we dissect the ongoing litigations surrounding former President Trump, including the significant jury award in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case, and contemplate how these legal woes weave into the broader tapestry of Trump&apos;s contentious relationship with the judiciary.<br/><br/>Finally, we shift gears with a dose of irony and satire as we touch on the unexpected backlash against Taylor Swift&apos;s influence on both football and the political arena—a lighter topic that somehow still speaks volumes about celebrity and culture in today&apos;s society.

We start by sifting through the unexpected twist of Chris Christie&apos;s political about-face, unraveling the threads of his departure from the race. Then, we set the stage for a heated viewership duel: a CNN debate with DeSantis and Nikki Haley on one side, and a Trump town hall on Fox on the other. Trust us, the implications are as juicy as the political banter.<br/><br/>As we navigate through the stormy seas of politics, we pause to discuss Secretary Lloyd Austin&apos;s  decorated career which now contrasts with his questionable health related decision. We&apos;re pulling back the curtain on the recent revelation of his prostate cancer diagnosis and the secrecy that shrouded it, probing the serious questions this raises about trust within our government&apos;s chain of command. Meanwhile, the Epstein flight logs have dropped like a bombshell, scattering high-profile names across the public&apos;s radar. We&apos;re here to dissect the fallout and give you our unfiltered thoughts.<br/><br/>Our conversation doesn’t end there. We&apos;re also casting a wary eye on government agencies and their tendency to enforce preferences over policies, a trend that could have lasting effects on our political landscape. And if you think we’d forget about our New Year&apos;s Eve escapades, think again. We&apos;ve got tales to share from the glittering halls of Mar-a-Lago, where Elsa rubbed elbows with the likes of Jason Scheff and even dabbled in a little impromptu performance art. So, buckle up for a ride that promises to be as lively and engaging as the year ahead.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Prepare for an absolute shocker as we shed light on the appalling revelations surrounding Hunter Biden&apos;s second indictment. Here&apos;s the thing; he has been accused of a staggering $1.4 million tax evasion, and what&apos;s worse, he is alleged to have indulged in extravagant spending while enjoying a seemingly impervious shield from his father&apos;s position of power. Are we living in an era where accountability is a myth? We examine this question in the context of Hunter&apos;s actions, and the unfinished saga of his controversial laptop. Do a child&apos;s actions cast a shadow on their parents? A discussion worth having, isn&apos;t it?<br/><br/>Meanwhile, we&apos;re turning up the heat as we grapple with controversies that have engulfed the arena of higher education. You&apos;ve probably heard about the scandal at Harvard University involving plagiarism, or the abrupt resignation of a college president, but what about the Iranian ambassador at Oberlin College who was fired for his anti-Semitic views? How do educational institutions deal with such incidents? Are there legal repercussions? Stick around as we pull back the curtain on the offstage drama on college campuses.<br/><br/>However, it&apos;s not all political debates and controversies. Every coin, after all, has two sides. Brace yourself for an emotional rollercoaster as we share the soul-stirring story of Kate Cox, a young woman from Texas forced to make an agonizing decision due to her unborn child&apos;s genetic condition and the state&apos;s stringent abortion laws. As we round off this hard-hitting episode, we want to take a moment to spread some joy. Happy holidays, dear listeners!

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can you remember the aroma of your favorite holiday meal from childhood? Join us on a magical journey as we reminisce about traditional family Christmas meals, holiday customs, and our personal preferences. We exchange anecdotes about our favorite cookies, real versus faux Christmas trees, and the age-old debate about enjoying Christmas in the snow or under the sun. Listen in and you might just smell the gingerbread cookies baking!<br/><br/>Ever wondered whether your Christmas tree choice could lead to a friendly banter? You&apos;re in for a treat! We engage in a fun dispute about real versus fake Christmas trees and share our cherished memories of the classic claymation Christmas specials. As we move towards the end, our conversation takes a more serious tone as we reflect on the gradual decline of organized religion, potential presidential candidates, and the implications of Nikki Haley stepping down from the race. Hear our thoughts and share a laugh or two as we navigate through these subjects.<br/><br/>Finally, we wrap up with a heartwarming discussion about our New Year’s Eve traditions, resolutions, and the common pressure of gift-giving. We reiterate the significance of having fun, forming connections, and always maintaining an open mind. So, sit back, relax, and join us for this holiday episode, wrapped up with laughter, nostalgia, and holiday cheer. Don&apos;t forget, the magic of the holiday season lies not just in the gifts, but in the warmth of our conversations and shared experiences.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the shocking altercation between senators and an MMA fighter turned senator. We dissect the incident, the men involved, and what it implies about the state of decorum in political chambers. It&apos;s a fiery debate you won&apos;t want to miss.<br/><br/>Politics doesn&apos;t stop there, though. Tim Scott&apos;s campaign suspension and the sudden endorsement of Nikki Haley by two of his key supporters leaves the political landscape ripe for speculation. We broach the subject of dwindling polls and their potential influence on campaign suspensions. With the political field in constant flux, we discuss the current state of the Democratic party, the potential of Gavin Newsom taking over, and how migration is impacting states like Florida.

Is the focus on sports overshadowing the importance of academics? We don&apos;t shy away from this contentious debate. As we wind up this thought-provoking episode, we remember our brave veterans and extend our warm Thanksgiving wishes to our listeners.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>What&apos;s in a name? Well, if you&apos;re a bird with a potentially racist namesake or a nation unaware of its naming history, quite a lot it seems. This episode takes flight with a controversy sweeping the birding community as the Audubon Society embarks on a renaming journey, ruffling feathers in the process. They&apos;re scrubbing their avian directory clean of racist associations while leaving the &quot;mean&quot; mockingbird untouched. But that&apos;s not all, they&apos;ve also committed a cool $25 million towards fostering a more diverse and inclusive birding community. Feel the atmosphere thicken as we explore this decision and its ripple effects across the bird-watching world.<br/><br/>Now, imagine this - What if the United States of America wasn&apos;t the United States of America? A radical thought, one that we dissect with a light-hearted yet thoughtful approach. We divulge how explorer  Amerigo Vespucci inadvertently became the namesake of our nation and toy with alternative names such as &apos;Americania&apos; and the &apos;Divided States of America&apos;.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What&apos;s in a name? Well, if you&apos;re a bird with a potentially racist namesake or a nation unaware of its naming history, quite a lot it seems. This episode takes flight with a controversy sweeping the birding community as the Audubon Society embarks on a renaming journey, ruffling feathers in the process. They&apos;re scrubbing their avian directory clean of racist associations while leaving the &quot;mean&quot; mockingbird untouched. But that&apos;s not all, they&apos;ve also committed a cool $25 million towards fostering a more diverse and inclusive birding community. Feel the atmosphere thicken as we explore this decision and its ripple effects across the bird-watching world.<br/><br/>Now, imagine this - What if the United States of America wasn&apos;t the United States of America? A radical thought, one that we dissect with a light-hearted yet thoughtful approach. We divulge how explorer  Amerigo Vespucci inadvertently became the namesake of our nation and toy with alternative names such as &apos;Americania&apos; and the &apos;Divided States of America&apos;. A hint of satire perhaps, but it&apos;s a reflection of the current state of our divided nation. We then invite you, dear listener, to join us in an amusing game of hypotheticals - if you had the reins, what new name would you bestow upon the U.S.A?

As a seasoned military professional, Clay Novak, is about to take you on a journey through time, examining the Cold War, proxy wars, and the Global War on Terror, in order to shed light on the current international landscape. We will expose the challenges of forming informed opinions in a world flooded with editorialized and biased news.<br/><br/>Let&apos;s take a step back to examine the role the US has played in past and present Cold Wars and how it continues to influence our world. Together, we will illustrate the US&apos;s reliance on allies and organizations to maintain peace through examples from the war on terror, the war on drugs, and the Korean conflict. Prepare to be surprised as we expose the exploitation of US open borders by cartels for drug and human trafficking, weaving a narrative often overlooked in mainstream media.<br/><br/>Finally, we delve into the shadowy world of espionage, highlighting its enduring threat and its monumental influence on the US military capabilities. Uncovering the often unseen role of defense contractors and the staggering cost implications of high tech military equipment, we evaluate the multifaceted support the US provides in global conflicts.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Imagine if you could unravel the complex web of global conflicts, and understand how events like the Israel-Hamas conflict, Ukraine, and Iran are deeply interwoven by history and geopolitical intricacies. As a seasoned military professional, Clay Novak, is about to take you on a journey through time, examining the Cold War, proxy wars, and the Global War on Terror, in order to shed light on the current international landscape. We will expose the challenges of forming informed opinions in a world flooded with editorialized and biased news.<br/><br/>Let&apos;s take a step back to examine the role the US has played in past and present Cold Wars and how it continues to influence our world. Together, we will illustrate the US&apos;s reliance on allies and organizations to maintain peace through examples from the war on terror, the war on drugs, and the Korean conflict. Prepare to be surprised as we expose the exploitation of US open borders by cartels for drug and human trafficking, weaving a narrative often overlooked in mainstream media.<br/><br/>Finally, we delve into the shadowy world of espionage, highlighting its enduring threat and its monumental influence on the US military capabilities. Uncovering the often unseen role of defense contractors and the staggering cost implications of high tech military equipment, we evaluate the multifaceted support the US provides in global conflicts. Gear up for a thoughtful analysis of global terror networks, opening your eyes to the complexities of major world events and how they shape our existence.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ever wonder how a seismic shift in political allegiances can impact an election? Grasp the potential fallout as we delve into RFK Jr.&apos;s transition from the Democratic Party to an independent. We take this political shakeup a step further by drawing parallels with the Ross Perot effect and hypothesize how this could tip the scales in the upcoming election. From analyzing public reactions on social media to exploring the possible votes siphoned off from other candidates, we set the stage for a riveting conversation on this political roller coaster.<br/><br/>Now, let&apos;s take a flight and cross borders into the realm of international affairs. The tumult in Washington DC isn&apos;t just an internal affair - the ripples are felt worldwide. Unravel the implications of this power vacuum, question the optics of President Bush&apos;s response to 9/11, and dissect the convoluted role of the Israeli Defense Force and the US Carrier Group amid the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. We offer perspectives from the ground, sharing insights from those who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, adding a human dimension to the political chess game.<br/><br/>Finally, we fast-forward to the future with a deep-dive into the world of artificial intelligence. Ponder on the promises and pitfalls, the fascination, and the fear. It&apos;s a future where AI replaces human creativity, a world transformed by lines of code. We raise questions about the potential misuse of AI, discussing the checks and balances necessary for safe use. And as a tantalizing teaser, we share some shocking news about Frank Biden that recently came to light. It&apos;s a jam-packed episode of politics, world affairs, and technology. Buckle up, it&apos;s going to be quite a ride.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

From analyzing public reactions on social media to exploring the possible votes siphoned off from other candidates, we set the stage for a riveting conversation on this political roller coaster.<br/><br/>Now, let&apos;s take a flight and cross borders into the realm of international affairs. The tumult in Washington DC isn&apos;t just an internal affair - the ripples are felt worldwide. Unravel the implications of this power vacuum, question the optics of President Bush&apos;s response to 9/11, and dissect the convoluted role of the Israeli Defense Force and the US Carrier Group amid the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. We offer perspectives from the ground, sharing insights from those who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, adding a human dimension to the political chess game.<br/><br/>Finally, we fast-forward to the future with a deep-dive into the world of artificial intelligence. Ponder on the promises and pitfalls, the fascination, and the fear. It&apos;s a future where AI replaces human creativity, a world transformed by lines of code. We raise questions about the potential misuse of AI, discussing the checks and balances necessary for safe use. And as a tantalizing teaser, we share some shocking news about Frank Biden that recently came to light. It&apos;s a jam-packed episode of politics, world affairs, and technology. Buckle up, it&apos;s going to be quite a ride.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Boldly challenging the political status quo, we put Hillary Clinton under the microscope, examining her audacious persistence in reviving the &quot;Russia, Russia, Russia&quot; narrative. Despite an investigation involving 19 lawyers, 40 FBI agents, 280 subpoenas, and 500 warrants that found zero evidence, she soldiers on. We pull back the curtain on the glaring hypocrisy of partisan players who went from protesting &quot;not my president&quot; in 2016 to labelling those questioning the 2020 election as conspiracy theorists. <br/><br/>We then switch gears, pulling apart the current state of the US political landscape that seems to be increasingly polarized. As cities and communities fray under the strain of escalating protests turning into riots, we question the role of notable figures. We also highlight James Carville&apos;s critique of the &quot;loony left&quot; and ponder if they&apos;re shooting their own cause in the foot. We then wade into the murky waters of the gun control debate, the US&apos; UN membership, and the importance of Tim Scott as the lone African-American candidate. <br/><br/>We wrap up our conversation by sizing up the candidates and their platforms, discussing the need for alternatives, and considering the implications of Kamala Harris&apos; candidacy. Are we seeing a true shift in political dynamics? We also give a shoutout to the Alan J Lynch Foundation for their commendable support of veterans across the country.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ever been amazed at life&apos;s unexpected turns? Join me as I reconnect with my old friend, Gary Ranatza, an unexpected actor who sprung from a father supporting his daughter&apos;s theater dreams to a remarkable performer himself. Together, we journey through Gary&apos;s transition from the shadows of background roles to the spotlight of noteworthy roles, and his brave leap from his sheriff&apos;s office job to fully plunge into his acting career. We revisit our mutual dream of creating a sitcom, and consider the thrilling possibilities that lie on the horizon.<br/><br/>Turning the conversation light-hearted, Gary and I explore his recent portrayal of a creepy old man in a student film project and his newfound joy in the filmmaking process. With his characteristic candor, humor, and charm, Gary opens up about his social awkwardness and his clever use of self-deprecation to make others feel at ease. As we share laughter and memories, listen in to learn about the importance of fun and humor during retirement.<br/><br/>Now, brace yourselves as we dive into some serious musings on the ethical concerns surrounding the use of AI in the entertainment industry and its potential impact on actors. We grapple with the consequences of AI&apos;s intrusion in our lives and strategies to stay informed and cautious. We also consider the government&apos;s handling of issues such as UFOs and the distractions they create. We conclude with a glimpse into Gary&apos;s future projects and his heartfelt appreciation for his colleagues in the entertainment industry.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Show Notes<br/><br/>Did you ever imagine a simple glass of milk could have such loaded implications? Well, brace yourself to be jolted out of your dairy-based comfort zone as we debunk a rather intriguing claim from PETA. In an article that seems to straddle the line between reality and satire, PETA boldly states that cow&apos;s milk is steeped in the throes of white supremacy. Now, if you&apos;ve ever enjoyed a bowl of cereal or a milky cup of coffee, you could be unwittingly promoting a twisted ideology.<br/><br/>Dive headfirst into this bizarre correlation as we sift through the details of the PETA article, updated in 2021. It should make for a good laugh, if nothing else. The article suggests that white supremacists are using milk emojis and photos of themselves downing milk to emphasize their &apos;whiteness&apos;, a claim that has left geneticists perturbed. This baffling association between dairy and supremacy extends into Hollywood, with movies like Inglourious Basterds and Get Out subtly underlining this narrative. So, are you prepared to overhaul your dietary habits based on this wild proposition?

In our latest episode, we have an intimate conversation with Lynn from Infinity Med Spa, who courageously opens up about her personal journey with ovarian cancer.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ever wondered how to protect your peace amidst the chaos of social media? Have you found yourself caught in the vortex of online arguments, only to emerge drained and emotionally spent? This episode guides you on how to navigate the murky waters of social media, without losing your sanity. We discuss the evolution of social media since 2009, from a tool connecting loved ones to a &quot;media-based loony bin&quot; where anyone can voice their opinions, often without consequence. It&apos;s important to remember the four agreements: be impeccable with your words, don&apos;t take anything personally, always do your best, and never make assumptions. If the negativity gets too overwhelming, it&apos;s okay to take a step back. <br/><br/>Here&apos;s a provocative question: Do you find yourself getting sucked into the power of social media algorithms? We explore the urgent need to recognize how these algorithms can suck you into pointless arguments, robbing you of your time and energy. We suggest refraining from responding to online arguments. Trust us, preserving your peace is more important than having the last word in a virtual squabble. The insults thrown at you are more of a reflection of the person hurling them than you. So, let it go.<br/><br/>Lastly, let&apos;s not forget the joy of sharing content on social media. A touch of comedy, a dash of parody, and voila! You&apos;ve got yourself a much-needed break from the seriousness of life. We discuss the refreshing impact of comedy videos and the undeniable importance of makeup and false eyelashes when creating video content. So, if you&apos;re looking for tips and suggestions on how to look good on camera, we&apos;ve got you covered. Join us as we traverse through the complexities of social media, striking a balance between the &quot;media-based loony bin&quot; and spaces that spark joy.

This episode unfurls the captivating backstory behind Mitchell&apos;s book, exploring his hopes for it to spark positive societal shifts, and his hurdles in bringing it to life. Additionally, we delve into his first literary endeavor, Mentally Tough in a Week, penned remarkably in a mere 72 hours as he grappled with the loss of his father.<br/><br/>Turning a new leaf, our conversation dives into the importance of mental resilience.

After nearly a decade of combating violent crime, human trafficking, and child predators, he was reassigned to the FBI’s unprecedented investigation of the political unrest at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. Friend soon uncovered efforts by the FBI and Department of Justice to manipulate statistics and exaggerate the nationwide threat of domestic terrorism. Friend spotlighted how the politicized FBI was cooking the books to support an ongoing narrative from the Joe Biden administration to label Donald Trump voters as violent extremists. Friend witnessed overzealous practices to harass conservative Americans and realized the FBI was turning its investigative processes into a punishment.

    <description><![CDATA[<p><a href='https://amzn.to/3f9yG2Y'>Buy the Book</a><br/>Lieutenant Kevin M. Hallinan’s adventure-packed and insightful journey through the evolution of law enforcement, the rise of counterterrorism, and the birth of modern sports security.<br/>From his hardscrabble NYC upbringing, through the NYPD ranks, to command of America’s first ever joint task force on terrorism alongside the FBI, Kevin M. Hallinan lived a lot of history. From beat cop to detective, Hallinan maneuvered through some of America’s most volatile decades and saw from the inside the tenuous gray line between law and order. The job proved to be extremely isolating. And it was almost always hair-trigger.<br/><br/>Early in his career, Hallinan became embroiled in deadly mob cases, which pulled him under the scrutiny of the feared and historic Knapp Commission on police corruption. In extreme danger and under pressure, he persevered and kept his integrity intact. Higher-ups took notice and brought him into the chief of detectives’ office where he helped reorganize robbery squads and create innovative and responsive new police initiatives. One such effort helped bring awareness and sensitivity to sexual assault investigations and contributed to the creation of the revolutionary Special Victims Unit. And that was only the beginning.<br/><br/>As the 80s unfolded and deadly attacks on police, diplomatic missions, and corporate targets escalated throughout the city, Hallinan relied on the mentoring of a growing network of law enforcement notables. It was compiling this amazing human network that made him the perfect choice to help pull together and lead the pioneering FBI/NYPD Joint Terrorism Task Force. The JTTF, as it came to be known, would go on to create many of the counterterrorism tools and tactics that keep America safe to this very day. After retiring from law enforcement, Hallinan began a new chapter as Executive Director of Security and Facilities Management for Major League Baseball.<br/><br/>His fascinating inside look at a life in law enforcement spans layers of history, explores evolutions in national security, and features game-changing heroes and eye-opening innovations. Kevin M. Hallinan’s life and learning are at once informative, thrilling, entertaining—and perhaps most of all, truly inspiring.<br/><br/><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'></a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

Like many in the first responder community the job has its cost.

The job, the service, his dedication caused this injury, and consequently his retirement. What PTSI didn’t change was the love and devotion to his<br/>community and to his fellow first responders. Keith has since dedicated his life to advocating for mental illness, substance and alcohol abuse recovery, and suicide awareness. Since starting this mission Keith built an international support group through Facebook for First Responders and Veterans for PTSI and other job-related mental health issues.

In March 2022 he completed the filming of his feature length documentary focusing on PTSI in the first responder community. Keith is a public speaker and soon to be published author. Keith’s transparency in his own life has led him to share his story through social media and many other platforms to reach the most people he can.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>A new sketch comedy show dares to do the UNTHINKABLE: Make fun of everyone! Including the left! “Think Saturday Night Live, only not so politically correct… and much funnier,” explains That Show Tonight creator Michael Loftus. “Political satire has existed for centuries, but it’s tilted so heavily in one direction,” Loftus said. “It’s gotten to the point where one side of the aisle is pretty much off limits.”<br/>That Show Tonight is currently in production, having staged four shows - one in Nashville, three in New York - all performed in front of sold-out audiences, who delighted in content that wasn&apos;t afraid to make fun of woke celebrities and the far left. Its most recent show on March 26 featured comedian and former Saturday Night Live  star, Jim Breuer as guest host. He absolutely rocked the sold-out studio audience at the America First Media Campus!<br/><br/>Late night talk shows have turned increasingly toward politics with a decidedly leftward slant. So has Saturday Night Live, the 46-year old sketch comedy show that debuted in 1975. “Half the country is ignored,” Loftus said. “Comedy’s so predictable now, it’s boring.” But everybody’s fair game when it comes to That Show Tonight. “We’re an equal opportunity maker-funer-ofer,” Loftus laughed. The veteran writer/comedian has a long list of credits, including The George Lopez Show, Anger Management with Charlie Sheen, Kevin Can Wait, specials on The History Channel, Comedy Central, and Fox Nation, and countless appearances on The Greg Gutfeld Show. <br/><br/>Loftus and team are currently producing and distributing the show independently. Live-streamed via thatshowtonight.com and hosted by an independent and secure server, the show assures its audience that it is safe from the threat of big tech censorship and cancel-culture. <br/><br/>Creating a shield from Big Tech censors took on greater importance last week when without warning or explanation the social media platform Tik-Tok deleted the That Show Tonight account after it surpassed 15,000 followers with multiple videos attracting hundreds of thousands of views.<br/><br/>Breuer and veteran Hollywood actors Nick Searcy and Kristy Swanson have signed on to be regular guests. Popular Trump impersonator Shawn Farash was recently added to the cast. “Several other names are ‘waiting in the wings’,” </p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Grace Schara, a promising young woman with Down Syndrome, died at the hands of “hospital protocol” October 13th after being admitted on October 6th for COVID-19 treatment. This occurred after she was given a lethal combination dosage of Precedex, Lorazepam, and Morphine within a period of 30 minutes by the attending medical team.<br/>This was a death that was PREVENTABLE, especially when you consider these facts:<br/>Despite having NO prior authorization from her medical power of attorney, Grace was labeled DNR by the attending physician, in violation of Wisconsin State Statute 154.<br/>Hospital staff put Grace in restraints simply because she wanted to get up to use the restroom, a disability rights violation.<br/>Medical advocate/parent was removed by an armed guard from the hospital room in direct violation of guidelines from the US Department of Health and Human Services to support and protect people with disabilities during the pandemic.<br/>No one has satisfactorily explained why that particular cocktail of medicines was used. It is especially odd considering the family was told she had a good day the day before, prompting the doctor to recommend a feeding tube be placed on the morning of the day Grace later died.<br/>“It is so important that EVERYONE knows Grace’s story,” said Grace’s dad Scott Schara. “Grace, nor any other disabled person, should have to endure what she did. No family should have to live through this, either.”<br/>“Grace was a beautiful, inquisitive young woman who loved Elvis, geography, dancing, fishing, horse riding, and playing the violin, among many other interests. She loved the Lord.  The sky was truly the limit with Grace, and we were blessed to have her in our lives for 19 years. We don’t want her death to be in vain.” said Schara.<br/><br/><a href='https://youtu.be/bQgiEPrCHdk'>Watch on YouTube</a></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Almost from birth, our children have been force-fed the vile ideology that there is only one clear pathway to future success—COLLEGE! Well, we have completely debunked this work of nefarious fiction in our gripping best seller: <a href='https://amzn.to/3wZOvzB'>100% Success Without College.</a><br/><br/>So who is going to help your child learn about the hundreds of educational opportunities that are often hidden from sight? Who is going to help your young adult find the right career that will bring about both joy and the perfect income? What? Do you really think the high school guidance counselor, who is responsible for over 500 students, will do a great job? Hardly. No, a counselor’s main focus is on testing, not opportunity training. So the very best person is you, mom and dad!<br/><br/>Examples of opportunity training are: So what two-year trade school degree commands a median income of $135,000? How does one earn $80,000 annually by working with, or near an ocean view after two years of training? How did a teenager turn a family lemonade recipe into a company that is now worth $11 million? How does one get paid while learning to become an electrician or a Customer Service Engineer? What school is considered the Harvard in animation? What chef school has the best placement program? How are young adults able to earn $67,000 a year with only a high school diploma? There are 3.5 million jobs globally, with a $92,000 median income, that will go unfilled in 2021 because there will not be enough trained technicians to fulfill the need. Name the job title for this profession. Name the foundation that provides high school graduates a grant of $100,000 to skip college. We’ve got the answers to these questions, and to hundreds more like them!<br/><br/>The focus of our book: 100% SUCCESS WITHOUT COLLEGE / How Your Kids Can Be Financially Independent by Age 22, is centered on the exploration of ALL the wondrous pathways to gainful employment and well-being, such as: TRADE SCHOOLS Ι APPRENTICESHIPS Ι BOOTCAMPS Ι STRAIGHT into the WORKFORCE Ι ENTREPRENEURING Ι MASSIVE OPEN ONLINE COURSES Ι SALES PROFESSION Ι COLLEGE BOUND Ι GAP YEAR ADVENTURES Ι COMMUNITY COLLEGE Ι MILITARY Ι and a lot more!

    <description><![CDATA[<p>&quot;Be brave. Be kind. Fight fires.&quot; That&apos;s the motto of firefighters, like Hersch Wilson, who spend their lives walking toward, rather than away from, danger and suffering. In this unique collection of true stories and practical wisdom, Wilson shares the Zen-like techniques that allow people like him to stay grounded while navigating danger, comforting others, and coping with their personal response to each crisis. As in Zen practice, firefighters are trained to be fully in the moment and present to the heartbeat, the life at hand. Each of five sections applies the firefighter&apos;s experience to everyone&apos;s lives. </p><p>Listeners learn to maintain perspective and equilibrium even in the midst of urgency and to prepare for adversity as well as aftermath and recovery. Finally, six key strategies for thriving in the face of difficulty include practical exercises and real-world advice. Every life contains the unexpected and the unwelcome. Since how we cope with those inevitable events, more than the events themselves, defines the quality of our lives, <em>Firefighter Zen</em> is an invaluable guide to meeting every day with our best calm, creative, and optimistic selves.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

In this unique collection of true stories and practical wisdom, Wilson shares the Zen-like techniques that allow people like him to stay grounded while navigating danger, comforting others, and coping with their personal response to each crisis. As in Zen practice, firefighters are trained to be fully in the moment and present to the heartbeat, the life at hand. Each of five sections applies the firefighter&apos;s experience to everyone&apos;s lives. </p><p>Listeners learn to maintain perspective and equilibrium even in the midst of urgency and to prepare for adversity as well as aftermath and recovery. Finally, six key strategies for thriving in the face of difficulty include practical exercises and real-world advice. Every life contains the unexpected and the unwelcome. Since how we cope with those inevitable events, more than the events themselves, defines the quality of our lives, <em>Firefighter Zen</em> is an invaluable guide to meeting every day with our best calm, creative, and optimistic selves.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode we talk with<a href='https://courtneygeelsforcongress.com/'> Courtney Geels</a>. She&apos;s running for Congress in North Carolina&apos;s 6th District. About Courtney:<br/><br/><b>I AM A PATRIOT</b></p><p>I work in healthcare, but I am surrounded by family, friends, and neighbors who work in law enforcement, small business, farming, research, finance, and other sectors.<br/>I regularly hear the challenges they face because of our invasive and expansive federal government that has the wrong priorities.</p><p>My favorite aspect of nursing is the patient advocate role. Most people have had experiences in the hospital, whether that involved themselves or a loved one. The nurse is the one who assesses and empathizes with your needs and pushes for you to get the care that you need. I hate bad patient care. Usually the things that upset me most at work is something related to injustice in patient care. In the past few years I have found that hospital administrators are making decisions driven by money that directly affect the quality of care I can give a patient. Similarly in current events, I am seeing the government making decisions that are directly affecting us at home and the quality of our lives. A lot of these reasons unfortunately also boil down to money, but they are disguised as social issues. That same passion of wanting to advocate for my family, my community, and my country is what has pushed me to run for office.</p><p>We need strong leaders in Congress who will stand up to the liberals and establish policies that benefit North Carolina and our nation, all while refusing to be swayed by monetary benefits.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

About Courtney:<br/><br/><b>I AM A PATRIOT</b></p><p>I work in healthcare, but I am surrounded by family, friends, and neighbors who work in law enforcement, small business, farming, research, finance, and other sectors.<br/>I regularly hear the challenges they face because of our invasive and expansive federal government that has the wrong priorities.</p><p>My favorite aspect of nursing is the patient advocate role. Most people have had experiences in the hospital, whether that involved themselves or a loved one. The nurse is the one who assesses and empathizes with your needs and pushes for you to get the care that you need. I hate bad patient care. Usually the things that upset me most at work is something related to injustice in patient care. In the past few years I have found that hospital administrators are making decisions driven by money that directly affect the quality of care I can give a patient. Similarly in current events, I am seeing the government making decisions that are directly affecting us at home and the quality of our lives. A lot of these reasons unfortunately also boil down to money, but they are disguised as social issues. That same passion of wanting to advocate for my family, my community, and my country is what has pushed me to run for office.</p><p>We need strong leaders in Congress who will stand up to the liberals and establish policies that benefit North Carolina and our nation, all while refusing to be swayed by monetary benefits.</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9CARYBYT8F7JL">Support the show</a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s<b> </b><a href='https://a.co/ekT4dNO'><b>AMAZON STORE</b></a> <br/>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://elsa-kurt-official-merch.printify.me/'><b>FAITH &amp; FREEDOM MERCH STORE</b></a></p><p>Elsa&apos;s <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Elsa-Kurt/e/B01E1VFRFQ'><b>BOOKS</b></a><br/><a href='https://elsakurt.com/'><b>Elsa Kurt</b></a><b>:</b> <b>You may know her for her uncanny, viral </b><a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@theotherelsa?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc'><b>Kamala Harris impressions</b></a><b> &amp; conservative comedy skits, but she’s also a lifelong Patriot &amp; longtime Police Wife.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A great conversation with the amazing <a href='https://jeffreyjameshiggins.com/'>Jeffery James Higgins</a>. He&apos;s a former reporter and retired supervisory special agent who writes thriller novels, short stories, creative nonfiction, and essays. He has wrestled a suicide bomber, fought the Taliban in combat, and chased terrorists across five continents. During his career, he made the first narco-terrorism arrest, convicted the world’s most prolific heroin trafficker, and arrested an Iranian operative trying to acquire surface-to-air missiles. Jeffrey received both the Attorney General’s Award for Exceptional Heroism and the DEA Award of Valor.<br/><br/>For the past year, we’ve all watched as the “defund the police” movement has spread across<br/>the country, leading to skyrocketing crime and violence. It’s felt as if we’ve been traveling<br/>through the Twilight Zone. Enough is enough.<br/>Law Enforcement Today, America’s largest police-owned media outlet, is leading the charge to<br/>fight back.
