Meanwhile, in House testimony a watchdog group is uncovering billions in furniture purchases to lease payments to members of Congress and their families from your tax dollars.

Stigall believes it's the seminole issue of our political era. It changes everything about our country and our system if not properly handled and prosecuted. The raid on President Trump's home has now been officially uncovered as unauthorized and illegal by Biden's own FBI. Still, AG Garland and Biden proceeded with the raid. Mark Weaver joins the show to discuss the significance of this finding and where we go from here. Did you know assisted suicide is now legal in 12 states? That came as news to Stigall. How does it fit in with the discussion of Obamacare? He explains. And Breitbart News Editor-In-Chief Alex Marlow discusses the new interview of White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles in Vanity Fair as well as the meeting between Erika Kirk and Candace Owens yesterday. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Many are angry with President Trump’s reaction to the murder of Hollywood actor and film maker Rob Reiner and his wife. Stigall takes a page from Reiner’s hit film “A Few Good Men” to discuss this further. Meanwhile, protecting the homeland is one of his chief responsibilities, and on that front he’s kicking butt. Border enforcement, deportations, drug boats, and foiled terror plots are among the many wins racked up just these last few months of his first year in office. But the economy still looms large, so Vice President Vance is hitting the trail to tackle the message today as gas prices continue to fall and people are still spending record amounts for Christmas. Steve Moore joins to explore the economic story. And a new family film hits theaters in a couple of days “David” by Angel Studios.

Or so says Joy Reid. Stigall explains. And an interesting few calls today on open line Friday to discuss Stigall's belief it's housing and student loans that -if dealt with properly by Republicans - will be their calling card to victory next year. Sen Eric Schmitt torches a member of the media over her characterization of the drug boat strikes. The Indiana Senate Republicans just stabbed their own party in the back yesterday.

And absolutely unprecedented move by the Trump administration in seizing a Venezuelan oil tanker off their coast yesterday. Stigall unpacks the justification behind it and why it's part of a much bigger strategy in the White House. Young people are getting squeezed, it's true. So much so they're choosing to avoid having families. However, new studies reveal an upcoming generation of new investors is booming - and you won't believe their average age! Plus what we now know to be true about that COVID shot and young men, Erika Kirk hits the media circuit to push back against her critics during a time of grief, and what do you know?

When the going gets tough - bring out the best messenger in modern political history to redirect the discussion.

There's a darkness that's just become obvious and difficult to ignore as much as Stigall tries. It's feeding despair to young men in particular and driving dangerous ideologies and actions. Stigall has named it Revelation Theory and unpacks it in more detail today in response to shots fired at podcaster Tim Poole's home. The good news is President Trump is hitting the stump and bringing in real working voices of the country to tell the story of the economy and what he's doing to make affordability great again. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin explains today one of the primary drivers of that economic rebound is taking the restraints off of energy development. Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn also joins the show to discuss an interesting issue with musicians/singers and broadcasters as well as Democrats' insistent focus on the drug boat strikes that poll very popular with voters. And Col. Kurt Schlicter with his brand new book and plenty of thoughts on the matter.

It's an amazing business story and one that has Hollywood and everyone who streams movies and shows watching with great interest. Could Netflix be about to purchase Warner Brothers and HBO?

President Trump has appointed Scott Bessent to be his "affordability" point man. The National Taxpayers Union has tracked the fast states to grow and lose population and Brandon Arnold who's the Executive VP shares the data.

Washington is full of both. Yesterday, Stigall was on Capitol Hill talking with the former. Members of the House's Republican Study Committee. Their objective was to message to you that first, they have an agenda they believe is working and two, they're not done. It's ultimately up to you if you like what you hear or not.

Simply put, thank you for your support of this podcast. That's today's theme largely. Yes, tackling some headlines too, but by request, a few folks brought up Rush Limbaugh's tradition of reading the real story of the first Thanksgiving. Today, Stigall decided to do just that.

Stigall's question for the day: Who's working to solve problems and make things better versus who's simply sniping at the President and his team and their ideas for the country. This week we'll hear from the White House on everything from an obamacare fix, to A.I., potential peace deals, and more. Still, some it seems offer only complaint. Not Steve Moore who's remarkably bullish today - particularly on A.I. The President launched something called Genesis Mission yesterday and some Trump backers seem very split. As expected, a judge throws out the indictments of James Comey and Laticia James. Josh Hammer joins us to explain the justification for the judge's decision and what's likely to happen next.

As is usual, while the influencer class tells you the sky is falling Stigall explains why he sees it differently. It isn't that it's all smiles and happy talk, but it is key to understand some political perspective. The definitive interview with the FBI on the attempt on President Trump's life in Butler, PA was granted to Fox News and it was extensive. Are prices improving? How is the agricultural community dealing with the battle over beef and soybeans? Deputy Secretary of the USDA Stephen Vaden gives us his input on the markets impacting your trips to the grocery store.

Great economic news out yesterday and of course the media is hungry to talk about anything else. From President Trump's comments to a member of the media a full week ago you're just now hearing about or his post reminding people what sedition means and the punishment for it - yes, they'd rather you talk about anything else. Luckily for this show's audience, you'll hear the truth. Col. Kurt Schlichter stops by to discuss members of Congress encouraging members of the military to go rogue, implying President Trump is issuing illegal orders and they should resist following them. E.J. Antoni explains messaging affordability and how to accelerate economic growth. Democrat Jasmine Crockett continues to show her intelligence on the House floor.
