Before we get to this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, I wanted to touch on the subject of this Sunday’s piece titled, “A Radical Marxist-Progressive Takes The Helm At NPR.”Katherine Maher is the new CEO at National Public Radio. She is being excoriated over her past tweets that expose her as an uber-radical Leftist. Further, one of her first official acts was to punish a whistleblower who exposed the almost total Left-wing bias at NPR, castigating him so profusely that he resigned after being suspended without pay.Here is a short clip that examples her Marxist-Progressive ideology. In it she advances a level of moral relativism on the subject of “truth” that should find you extremely uncomfortable.If you subscribe to UndergroundUSA.com you will receive the Sunday article in your email inbox or Substack app. If you do not subscribe, please stop by and do so. It’s free and offers the option of supporting our work through a paid subscription as well.Maher is a quintessential example of what is wrong with the mainstream media; how it has become a propaganda machine for the Marxist-based Woke Left. Congress should move to defund – or at least suspend funding for NPR until its journalistic and editorial staffs are balanced in their ideologies and reflective of the whole of the American people.Today, it most certainly is not.When we come back, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get to this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, I want to comment on the self-righteous virtue-signaling of the pro-Palestinian protesters here in the United States and in Europe.It was reported this morning that pro-Palestinian (read: pro-Hamas) protesters blocked both the Golden Gate Bridge in California and the Kennedy Expressway feeder to O’Hare Airport in Chicago, the latter causing people to miss their flights. If you’ve ever missed a flight you know how hard it is to reschedule and that it most often costs you extra to get seated on another flight.The point I am trying to make is this. No one affected by the blocking of traffic or the blocking of building access – the blocking of anything, whether it’s pro-Palestinian protesters, BLM protesters, or any other cause de jour protesters, is sympathetic to the protesters' cause. The actions of these protesters, regardless of their cause, only serve to alienate and antagonize the very people they are trying to win over.Help us disseminate fact-based information by sharing with like-minded peopleIn fact, when someone trying to make a flight, get to work, or walk into a building is obstructed by these types of protests, it creates a wave of anger—not in support of the cause being protested but towards the protesters themselves. People see these obstructive displays as selfish displays of self-righteous virtue signaling that telegraph the protesters' sense of elevated importance over everyone else.How does making someone miss a flight benefit the Palestinian people? How does making someone late for work or a doctor’s appointment – now does impeding an ambulance’s emergency run to a hospital or a fire engine’s run to a fire or a police response to a deadly situation make people feel sympathetic to a protester’s cause? It doesn’t. It foments anger toward the protester and – through that – creates indifference and resentment toward the cause itself.Taking to the streets in protest in the United States and the free nations of the world has become an exercise in pious pseudo-moralistic posturing that achieves very little if anything.If protesters are sincere about advancing support for their causes, they have to engage the population with information, education, and fact-based argument, not actions that literally turn the population against them…like blocking streets, bridges, and business entryways. The people who do that, well, they are just self-important, juvenile, virtue-signaling assholes.Then, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Evidently, we live in an age when the most ignorant and uninformed among us are now empowered to believe they are intelligent. Yes, this certainly applies to politics and the litany of social issues facing our country – but in this particular case, I am referring to the bizarre and unfounded panic surrounding the upcoming solar eclipse on Monday, April 8th.Yes, that’s right. The solar eclipse that will occur on April 8th is being deemed by some – and this is astounding – to be something of a “state of emergency.” As the “Imbecile-in-Chief” would say, “No lie!”As Dr. Robert Malone writes at his substack (which is linked at UndergroundUSA.com:“It turns out that around parts of the USA, there are empty grocery shelves, long lines for food, and queues for gas. After all, the April 8th solar eclipse could cause death and destruction.“The National Guard has even been called to duty in Oklahoma...“In fact, some local governments have been making emergency plans and preparations for months in advance. National Guard units and military installations have been called in and are involved to keep people safe.”Really?! Has our society been so incredibly dumbed down; have the imbecilic been so duped into believing that they possess intellect that we are reverting to the Medieval Days when uneducated serfs thought the gods were stealing the sun from the sky during solar eclipses?As Malone alludes to in his article, a solar eclipse is not a national emergency, it is not a state emergency, and it is not a local emergency. It is a naturally occurring event in nature. I’d say “follow the science” but we all know how that went during COVID thanks to a colluding and dishonest Medical-Industrial Complex.So, there is no need to run to the store to fill your closets with toilet paper or your pantry with 99-cent packages of ramen noodles. You don’t have to wrap your computers in foil and you don’t have to construct an “eclipse shelter.”The only thing you should do – and this is if you want to view the eclipse, is to take proper precautions for your eyes:* Never look directly at the sun during any phase of the eclipse without proper eye protection* Use certified solar viewing glasses or solar filters specifically designed for eclipse viewing* Do not use sunglasses, smoked glass, or homemade filters, as they do not provide adequate protection* Supervise children closely to ensure they use proper eye protection or view the eclipse indirectly* Do not use cameras, binoculars, or telescopes without appropriate solar filters* If using a telescope, ensure it has a solar filter covering the front aperture* Keep pets indoors during the eclipse to prevent them from looking at the sun* And, be cautious of traffic and crowds during eclipse eventsWe in the United States really have to start employing critical thinking skills as a constant in our lives and we must demand that our educational system dispense with the installation of false self-esteem in our children. We need to return to the tried and true core curriculums of the past that taught a child how to think rather than what to think. Sadly, the Marxist-run teachers' unions will never allow that to happen so we must take our children’s education into our own hands. But I digress.There is no national, regional, or local state of emergency associated with Monday’s solar eclipse. Take precautions for your eyes and the eyes of your loved ones and enjoy engaging in the witnessing of nature. Trust me. You have enough toilet paper.Then, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before I get into anything, I would like to thank everyone who reached out to me and offered up prayers and well wishes during my time under medical care. I appreciate each one of you.And before we get into the meat of what I want to address, now comes news that our Catholic President has banned religious-themed eggs from the White House Easter egg festivities. Instead, he is celebrating Easter as an LGBTQ awareness celebration. Funny, when I went to Catholic School we understood the holiday to signify Jesus rising from the dead and the forgiveness of sin for all who believed in him. Damn deceitful nuns….If you listen to the media or the stick-up-the-ass-puppet-heads at the White House or US State Department – and we touch on this in today’s segment on America’s Third Watch, Joe Biden and his administration are staunch supporters of Israel in her struggle against Hamas. The only problem is this. All of Biden’s actions and all of the actions of his subordinates prove exactly the opposite.We need to be crystal clear on one point. Hamas is a US State Department-designated terror organization. That designation makes them not only an enemy of the United States but also an enemy of the West and the free world. They are in the same category as ISIS, the Taliban, Hezbollah, and al Qaeda.Another point that needs to be understood is that the overwhelming majority of the Palestinian people support Hamas, not only as their elected government but also in their actions. 72 percent of the Palestinian people – according to the Palestinian Center for Policy Survey and Research – believe and support Hamas' decision to attack Israel and her people on October 7th of last year and support for Hamas had risen in Gaza and more than tripled in the West Bank.Now let’s take into account that the UN – not the most Israel-friendly institution on the global stage – has concluded there were “reasonable grounds to believe” sexual violence, including rape and gang rape, occurred at several locations during the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas militants and most likely continues to this day.And now let’s dispense with the bullshit that Iran is not orchestrating the whole thing; that it’s not funding, coordinating, and providing tactical support for the unprovoked carnage Hamas has exacted on the Israeli people.Through it all, the Biden administration has maintained the intellectually stunted desire to affect a two-state solution; a result that Hamas and the Palestinian people do not want.Through it all, the Biden administration has continuously pushed for a ceasefire which only acts as a hudna for Hamas.Through it all, the Biden administration has fortified the Iranian mullahs with tens of billions of dollars; money only an imbecile wouldn’t recognize as fueling not only the terror state's desire for a nuclear weapon but also the Hamas offensive and possibly the ensuing Hezbollah offensive.At no time has Mr. Biden acknowledged Iran’s role in this murderous rampage. At no time has Mr. Biden acknowledged Hamas' desire to eradicate the Israeli people from the face of the Earth.And at no time has Biden sought to quell the grotesque level of anti-semitism emanating from the far-Left and youth of his political party right here in the United States!At no time has Biden – or his team or supporters – done anything to exhibit support for Israel. In fact, they have gone so far as to initiate interference in that sovereign nation’s elections by lobbying for “regime change.”So, it is a blatant and bald-faced lie that the Biden administration – or Obama 2.0 – supports Israel. It does not. It is aiding and abetting a designated terrorist organization and advancing Hamas-produced propaganda that the poor Palestinian people are destitute and oppressed at the hands of Israel. They are not. They are destitute and oppressed at the hands of Hamas, the terror organization they support…which makes them complicit in that terrorism.Let’s put it this way, when the United States was tracking al Qaeda through the Tora Bora region of Afghanistan after the slaughter on September 11th, how would we, as Americans, have responded to another country forcing a ceasefire onto our military forces with bin Laden within reach? We would have laughed and taken the kill shot.Israel should have that right too. It’s just a shame its closest ally, the US, has a Hamas-supporting imbecile at the helm.As we prepare to celebrate Easter here’s something to consider. Jesus Christ was a Jew. How would Hamas and the Palestinians who support them have treated him?Today’s segment of America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Communications Networks, right after this.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

As a lead into today’s America’s Third Watch program – in which we discuss at length Chuck Schumer’s shameful but full-throated endorsement of interfering in another sovereign nation’s election, among other things – I wanted to play a clip that illustrates the intense and expansive gulf between the Far-Left and the rest of society.Sky News host Rita Panahi (if you haven’t watched her segments on the Left I promise you it will be well worth your time) presents a clip of a Far-Leftist rattling off all of the “democracy-killing” and “Hitler-esque” agenda items that Donald Trump will execute once he is re-elected to office, which is looking increasingly likely.As you listen/watch, keep in mind that this individual believes in “its’” heart of hearts – and I  am using “its” on purpose – that all of these things are bad things; that all of these things are horrible and wrong:Call me a knuckle-dragging mouth-breather, but I see nothing wrong with any of the points with which “it” is taking issue. Each is mired in common sense and forces individuals to take responsibility for their actions. I especially agree with the point “it“ takes issue about the death penalty for human traffickers.But the larger point is this.A hot topic of conversation among many Americans is that we are facing the greatest divide since the end of the US Civil War and, many fear, we are on the precipice of a second US Civil War. I suggest we have been in a serious and very real culture war for decades.Have we really arrived at a point in time when the gulf between the Far-Left and the rest of the country finds the Far-Left defending human traffickers and pedophiles? Demanding treasure from the government simply because they exist?End the Department of Education and re-empower the states to oversee education, as intended? Absolutely! Supporting term limits? Who in their right mind doesn’t? Force NATO members to actually pay their dues? The gall!You have heard me say this before and I will say it until my dying day, God willing. The only reason we have Far-Left elected officials creating and passing these incredibly inane and societally destructive laws and regulations is that idiots like “it” vote like-minded idiots into office. We wouldn’t have the AOCs or the Adam Schiffs, or the Hank Johnsons – who believes stationing Marines on Guam would, literally, cause the island to tip over – if self-righteous, virtue-signalling, intellectually stunted dolts like “it” didn’t vote for them.Long ago, the Progressive-Neofascist Left manipulated the American people into believing that conversing about politics and religion with friends and family was impolite; something that shouldn’t be done. In reality, they used this shaming tactic to dupe everyone into refraining from discussing what the political class was doing and through the prohibition on talking about religion, expunged discussion about what is right and what is wrong; morality and ethics from the public square.In order to counter the incredible influence that the “its” have in the American and international public squares, we must resume having discussions about politics and religion. This doesn’t mean we have to argue about it, but we must begin a civil discussion with all who have the intellectual capability to do so.Sadly, for many “its” out there, it is too late. But it isn’t too late for the Republic. It’s just not going to be easy.Then, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks…Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get to the subjects of President Biden, his arrogance transmitted to the Middle East, and the troublesome floating pier he wants to put on the coast of Gaza, I wanted to shed some light on the crime committed by the so-called January 6th committee.After all the chest-thumping and insistence that Donald Trump was an insurrectionist Bond villain, the real villains in it all are the members of the January 6th House Committee themselves. Not only did the committee suppress video from the surveillance cameras inside the Capitol Building, but now comes news they hid evidence that exonerates President Trump from one of the chief accusations against him: that he offered no help.The Epoch Times reports:This revelation of illegal activity on the part of the January 6th committee should come down especially hard on former Congresswomen Liz Cheney and former Congressman Adam Kinzinger, to people who abdicated their responsibility to the truth to further a political agenda.Because this testimony was suppressed and not included in the final report, the final report itself becomes proof that a crime has been committed. Remember, those who testified before the committee did so under oath. That means the official report – submitted to the full Congress – was a fabrication on the level of the Steele Dosier. The committee perjured itself in its report to Congress and the American people.If we are ever going to begin our journey down the road where government is more important than politics; where truth is more valuable than opportunism and power, the the whole of the January 6th Committee needs to be held responsible for the crime they committed in lying to Congress and the American people.This accountability, if we are going to admit that the soft-touch of 21st-century justice for the elitist class has to end, needs to carry prison sentences. And because this lie was used in an attempt to manipulate the 2024 General Election, it should be seen as an attempt at insurrection itself, barring any of the committee members from holding elected federal office ever again.It’s time the arrogance of the political class – on both sides of the aisle – ended with these criminals put in shackles and led to a holding cell until their day in court. Enough is enough.Then, my current segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks…Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get deeper into the screamfest that was Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech (Is that what that was? It sounded a hell of a lot more like a campaign speech full of rainbows and unicorns…oh, and by the way, it’s all our fault for not appreciating the efforts of President Drool Cup), I wanted to say that the GOP response to Mr. Biden’s clown show was spot on.US Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL), laid it all out in a very understandable form, even for Biden-leaning suburbanite women. Aside from a little bit of a presentation issue which telegraphed exaggerated emotion – and I say this not because her content wasn’t excellent, but for remembering what they did to Bobby Jindal when he gave the response, the media excoriated him for appearance and delivery, Britt was excellent.In fact, her response is worth highlighting in total:It will take clear and honest voices – like Britt’s – to open the eyes of the 39.4 percent of the country who believe that Biden and his cabal are doing a good job; who don’t see that at every turn he and his team are damaging the country both domestically and also internationally.The time for not talking politics with your neighbors because it isn’t polite has passed. They conned us into not talking amongst ourselves to protect their greedy, selfish political power plays for too long. It’s time we realize we have more in common than we do in difference and it’s time we started demanding government over politics.Then, we discuss the Biden freakshow screamfest in my current segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks…Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we head into this segment of America’s Third Watch, I wanted to touch on the announcement that Ronna McDaniel is stepping down as the RNC chair after the Super Tuesday primary contests. Quite frankly, the move is overdue.I’ll preface this by saying that as far as I know, McDaniel is a nice person. For all I know she did the best she could in performing her duties as RNC chair. But the bottom line here is her performance was sub-par and it facilitated the tyrannical reign of the Biden administration: Obama 2.0.During her time as chair, McDaniel should have retooled the RNC to be a potent, pointed, and even vicious messaging machine. Republicans at the national level should have owned the narrative. Elected Republican members of the Legislative Branch should have been trained in messaging techniques both in front of the microphones and through their staffs.The RNC should have then turned its eye toward empowering the State GOP leaders with those same messaging techniques and methods. McDaniel should have made it clear to all 50 state leaders that there were goals to be met and that the RNC was there to help them achieve those goals.And then the focus should have been on the expansion of both the donor base and also the voting base (I won’t castigate McDaniel for her spendthrift ways, but growing a war chest must come before new office furniture purchases). The expansion of the donor and voter bases can only be achieved through messaging and educating the RNC leadership on community organizing – that’s right, taking a page out of the Progressive playbook.And lastly, McDaniel failed at the most important role of an RNC chair: winning elections. Too many easy pick-ups at both the state and federal levels fell through the cracks because the RNC embraced the status quo of sucking at messaging. They owned no narratives and, in fact – but for making McConnell-like mumbling statements that bored the electorate to tears – allowed Democrats to demonize any Republican running as an “extremist” or a “MAGA” candidate, never defending the idea that making America great again is a good thing, not a bad thing.Because the RNC exists in a hobbled state when t comes to messaging and narrative ownership, far-Left assholes like Rob Reiner and George Takei spew lies, hate, and disinformation about Donald Trump that is easily proved wrong. Racist? Please, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson couldn’t get enough of Trump when he was cutting them checks. Islamophobe? Please, his administration was well on its way to achieving a lasting peace in the Middle East before Biden and Blinken fucked that up. Border security? Check. Thriving economy? Check. Mounting homeownership across all demographics? Yup. Record minority new business start-ups? Yes indeed.Any way you look at it (and now we get to juxtapose the presidential records of Trump and Biden) Trump’s policies were infinitely better for America and the American people under his presidency.But you wouldn’t know that because the caustic, imbecilic Left owns the narrative. Their demonization gets to stick in the minds of the 13-second attention span voter because the RNC couldn’t message its way out of a wet paper bag with a hole in the bottom.So, I applaud Ronna McDaniel for having aplomb in her announcement that she would be resigning after Super Tuesday. But I won’t be pining for the good old days when she was the head of the RNC. Her job performance as RNC chair was…well, let’s just nicely say that she wasn’t good and leave it at that.Then, my current segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Broadcasting Networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get to this segment of America’s Third Watch, I wanted to touch on a hypocrisy everyone is letting slide. It may sound insignificant to you at first, but the more you contemplate the double standard being applied here, the more you see that one demographic is getting pushed around, and has been pushed around since the 1960s (for those calculating the math that’s 64 years).Currently, the number one hit on the Billboard Country Charts belongs to Beyonce, who critics describe as specializing in R&B, funk, rap, and hip-hop. She is commonly understood to be a performer predominantly of the Black culture, although she is knee-deep in the woke culture.Her new song, Texas Hold ‘Em, is certainly of the country flavor. That’s unmistakable. Here’s a short clip:Now, I am not saying that Beyonce doesn’t have a good product here. It’s well produced and I am sure the pop-country fans will glom onto it like an urban cowboy gravitates to a Tony Lama boot sale. But it’s not country music and, in fact, I will go as far as to say Beyonce has transgressed the line of cultural appropriation.And when one looks at the cover art for this single, it’s clear Beyonce holds a certain contempt and disdain for the more modest culture that is the country culture.Cultural appropriation is a charge the Black community often slings at the White community. Put succinctly, it is the use of elements of one culture by members of another. The Black community claims that in any form, Black cultural appropriation is offensive – especially when done by a White person – because the original significance of the elements is not respected. Black activists also, quite vocally, insist it reinforces stereotypes.When you understand the “ground rules” for the cultural appropriations game it’s clear that Beyonce and her producers are co-opting elements of the country lifestyle in an extremely opportunistic manner: to make money. Do they “respect the original significance” of the country culture? If you believe that you had better check the oil in your intelligence engine because you are not firing on all cylinders.Don’t get me wrong and don’t attempt to paint me with the disingenuous broad brush of political racism. There are successful Black performers who have both made the jump from pop to country and come up paying their dues doing it in a way that respects the country culture. Darius Rucker, Charlie Pride, Rhiannon Giddens, and Mickey Guyton have done so, but succeeded in doing so because of their true passion for the genre, not because they saw dollar signs in grabbing for their piece of the pie.The country culture is – by its very nature – the most inclusive demographic in the United States and that’s because it isn’t predicated on skin color or identity politics.You become a part of the country culture when you work hard, provide an honest day's work, live life being responsible for yourself and taking responsibility for your actions, respect and help your neighbors, when you strive to make your community and your country – no matter any perceived flaws – a better place to live, and you judge others by the content of their character, not the color of their skin.Now, ask yourself this question. Did Beyonce move to a small Texas town and fall in love with the lifestyle; and experience an epiphany about country life? Or did she see dollar signs and a cute hat she could exploit to enrich herself through cultural appropriation, something her community rails against?Do you see why it matters? If cultural appropriation is going to be a thing, then it should apply across the board. The special interest, “I’m a minority so I get to do whatever I want without consequence” double standard must stop.Then, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Genesis and Salem Communications Networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

As we get into this Presidents' Day edition of America’s Third Watch, I want to go on record as saying I was never a fan of homogenizing Washington’s Birthday and Lincoln’s Birthday together and then enjoining all of the presidents into that memorialization.Washington and Lincoln are monumental presidents, literally. The historical events that occurred under their leadership and tenures are rivaled by few, if any. Washington commanded a force that vanquished the most powerful military of its day and then oversaw the chaotic and sometimes belligerent beginning of the Great American Experiment. How many people throughout history would turn down an offer to be made king? How many people throughout history would walk away from the seat of power voluntarily?And Lincoln? A lawyer who rose to that station as an autodidact was thrust into a thankless position of impossible magnitude only to navigate not only the caustic halls of Congress in mitigating a divided nation but also insolent generals on the battlefield and a breakaway confederacy. His ultimate reward was three-fold. He succeeded in saving the Republic, he facilitated the end of slavery in the United States lighting the fuse for that practice to fall around the free world and, for it all received a bullet to the head.How is it that these two unique men, who gave their lives in their entirety for our country, must be celebrated with the likes of Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt (both racists and sympathetic to fascism), or Lyndon Johnson and Barack Obama (both racists from opposite ends of the racism spectrum). And don’t even mention the disgrace that is our current president.Honestly, Washington and Lincoln deserve their own days of memorialization. And rather than lionizing the many political hacks that followed in the office by lumping it all together as “Presidents' Day” we should establish a Founders & Framers Day and leave the other chief executives to earn memorialization.That would be more meaningful and it would also give honest and true educators an opportunity to extoll the greatness of these men, rather than only portraying them as slave owners and White supremacists.Then, (sigh), it’s Presidents' Day…yippie.Then, my current segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Salem and Genesis broadcasting networks.Take Back Your MindThink For Yourself Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get into the meat of this America's Third Watch segment, I just had to comment on the absolute abdication of humanity exercised by US Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) in her “present” vote addressing Hamas' use of rape and sexual assault as tools of war.Please understand that Tlaib represents an area of Michigan that is overwhelmingly Islamic and decidedly pro-Palestinian. The majority of the people there saw the genocidal attacks by Hamas on Israel on October 7th in a favorable light. That said, Tlaib represented her constituency in her vote, leading me to my overarching point – more on that in a bit.But to address the disingenuousness of Tlaib…The bipartisan resolution, introduced by Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL), passed in a 418-0 vote with Tlaib voting present. The resolution calls for lawmakers to condemn all sexual violence and rape committed as a form of weapons of war.While this, like all resolutions, holds little sway in the realm of reality, it does put all those who voted for it on record as abhorring the practices, which multiple sources have documented Hamas has used against Israel citizens and on the hostages they violently acquired on October 7th and in the days afterward.How could anyone not join in condemning the rape and sexual assault of women in any context?In defense of her indefensible vote, Tlaib said she was “disturbed” that the resolution did not address rape or sexual violence allegations made against soldiers from the Israel Defense Forces.“We all have a responsibility to denounce sexual violence in all forms, regardless of who is responsible,” Tlaib said in an X post. “War crimes cannot justify more war crimes. This resolution falls well short of also acknowledging the sexual abuse of Palestinians.”The problem with that disingenuous statement? There are no reports of the IDF committing these war crimes. It is a hollow accusation completely devoid of any evidence that any such thing took place. Tlaib is suggesting something that has never happened and trying to cover for her support for Hamas, its terrorism, its antisemitic genocidal mission statement, and its tactics by doing so.But, as much as I find Tlaib to be reprehensible and a wholly-owned operative of the Islamofascit movement to advance Islam globally, as I said before, she did vote the will of her constituency. Which brings me to my overarching point.The people responsible for a vote that throws shadows onto whether rape and sexual assault should be considered war crimes are the people who voted for Tlaib and the people who support her continued existence in Congress. It can be argued that Tlaib just had fidelity to her constituency so the people who need to be condemned and ostracized are the people who support and vote for people like Tlaib.We have gotten into the habit of believing that the central focal point of all the problems in government rests with the elected officials. That’s true to a large extent, but it isn’t the total package. Tlaib, McConnell, Jeffries, Pelosi, Schumer, AOC. But the fact of the matter is this.The blame for the ideological, political, and special interest activism and the continued fleecing of the American people rests almost exclusively with those who vote for these assholes. If they can’t get elected they can’t facilitate their opportunism. But they do get elected and that takes the votes of people who support them.As an aside, where the fuck is the #MeToo Movement in voicing support for the aforementioned resolution and voicing condemnation not only for Tlaib but for her supporters? Beuller? Beuller? They are nowhere because their entire movement was fraudulently gratuitous; a joke. Was the cause a good one? Yes, absolutely. But the spotlight-sucker leaders? All self-important, disingenuous, assholes.As a second aside, and I am including this picture as proof, when posting on Facebook about Tlaib’s “present” vote, I was denied the ability to post on a group in which I am the administrator, Facebook providing the excuse, “A security check is required to proceed.” No post before or since has seen this denial of service.Gee, I wonder which side of the Hamas v. Israel, Islam v. Freedom issue Facebook lands on…Then, my current segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Salem and Genesis broadcasting networks.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

I didn’t watch the Super Bowl so I am making my points based on the extensive social media coverage of Kansas City Chiefs' Travis Kelce going unhinged on his coach. Kelce – or as I like to refer to him, Taylor Swift’s boyfriend – exhibited not only a complete disregard for being a team player at a critical moment in the game, but he executed a horrific example of who he is as a role model.Now, I get that professional athletes – as with any performer or entertainer – have to have an elevated level of self-esteem. It would be hard to execute at a professional level in any genre that finds you performing at your peak in front of tens of thousands of people. But there is a fine line between embracing that necessary self-esteem to perform under pressure and being a jagoff.The moment Travis Kelce stepped into his coach's face, screaming and spitting, he crossed the line from thoroughbred athlete to jagoff.As I stated in the first segment of today’s broadcast, during Super Bowl 20 (and no I am not going to use the haute Roman numerals), with the Chicago Bears leading the New England Patriots by an insurmountable margin, Chicago’s coach, Mike Ditka, opted to use William “The Refrigerator” Perry in a scoring drive rather than his ace running back – and arguably one of the best running backs in the history of the game – Walter Payton.“The Fridge” was a defensive player, so the choice was one of psychological and emotional domination toward the Patriots; the proverbial sword in the neck, so to speak.The problem here is this. Walter Payton – a career-long member of the Chicago Bears, a premier player, worked like a workhorse in many a losing season, was denied the opportunity to score a touchdown in a Super Bowl. The opportunity was there. But he was denied that opportunity.At no time, from the moment of that decision until well after the McCaskey’s pre-maturely dismantled that dynasty-worthy team, did anyone – anywhere – see Walter Payton screaming into the face of Coach Ditka. It never happened.Now is as good a time as any to ask why. Payton certainly had the right to protest the decision. The greatest running back ever to play the game (many would agree) and the coach, to prove a point of dominance, lets a defensive lineman score a touchdown rather than allowing for a career crowning achievement for the league’s premier running back?The reason Payton didn’t throw a temper tantrum like Kelce is that Payton was a true sportsman and one who knew, no matter what, that every time he put on that uniform and/or took the field, he was seen as a role model for millions of young football fans. He took his profession seriously and part of that responsibility is knowing what that opportunity requires in public.I hear people channeling Charles Barkley right now in his protest that he never signed on to be a role model. That’s is a hollow argument and I suspect even Barkley knows it.When you make your money performing for the public – whether that performance is in sports, the arts, or whatever – it comes with the automatic assumption of role model status. Superstars know this. Mediocre one-trick ponies complain about it.I would look to the NFL to discipline Kelce but this is the same woke organization that knowingly sought to insert the divide of racism into Sunday’s Super Bowl by setting the precedent of playing a “Black national anthem.” I don’t believe there could be a bigger insult to the fallen and/or those who wear the uniform and sacrifice every day. So, I don’t hold out hope for the NFL doing anything but counting their 30 pieces of silver as our nation suffers a manufactured divide.That said, if I were the owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, Mr. Kelce would be having a “come to Jesus” moment regarding his bank account and his career options in the coming weeks. No one player is a franchise. If Kelce were kicked to the curb the Chiefs would still be a favorite for the 2025 Super Bowl.Kelce should publicly apologize to his coach and make a significant sacrifice to mend his now-tarnished image. And, I can only hope, that his billionaire girlfriend has the wherewithal to explain to her boyfriend his massive mistake and urge him to do the right thing. Otherwise, they deserve each other.There is no “I” in “team”, Mr. Kelce. Don’t be a jagoff.Then, this morning’s segment on America; 's Third Watch, broadcast on the Salem and Genesis Communications Networks.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

With the release of special counsel Robert Hur’s report on President Biden’s handling of classified documents, it appears we are once again facing a Hillary Clinton-James Comey moment. Where everyone was outraged that Clinton wouldn’t be held to account for blatantly violating the Espionage Act and then defying the Justice Department by destroying evidence on her private server, the American people should be doubly outraged at Hur’s conclusion not to recommend legal action against Biden.Hur’s special counsel investigation “uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen.” This is an incontrovertible violation of the Espionage Act and a crime that anyone else (but Clinton) would be charged for. Yet, it was announced that  the Justice Department will not charge Biden in the matter, Hur saying, “no criminal charges are warranted.”So what was the basis for letting Biden skate on committing a crime that is not far from the seriousness of treason? As Hur put it in his announcement:“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory…Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify a reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him – by then a former president well into his eighties – of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”Two immediate points come to mind.First, unless Hur is a soothsayer or can see into the future; unless he is an omnipotent being, then he cannot know what a jury will think or do. Therefore, his contentions about the jury are all speculation and should not be considered in calculating whether or not the Justice Department should pursue any prosecution of Biden.Second, unless Hur is a board-certified physician qualified to diagnose cognitive disorders, his opinion on the mental state of the President is irrelevant. In fact, his non-expert “testimony” – via his comments – complicates matters where the public and their elected representatives' consideration of the execution of the 25th Amendment is concerned.Hur’s purview was – specifically – to determine whether or not a crime had occurred. His report – in conclusion of his investigation – determined a crime was committed. Therefore, Hur has to report that fact to his superiors and reserve his personal opinions for bravado sessions with his friends. His opinions on the matter are irrelevant. Only the facts uncovered are relevant.So, for the second time in less than eight years, senior members of a presidential administration – who do not enjoy presidential immunity – are not charged with crimes that they did, in fact, commit. Where Biden was found to have illegally held classified documents, Clinton was found to have illegally held classified documents as well, Comey said in his final determination:“Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information…there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information.”Now, given the kid gloves with which Clinton and Biden are being handled – and how the administration of justice is being obstructed, how is it even possible to attempt to deny Donald Trump his right to be on any state Presidential Election ballot when he has already been acquitted of charges claiming insurrection?Colorado’s supreme court used the basis of Donald Trump being guilty of insurrection to move their ridiculous claim through the process that saw that state attempt to remove Trump’s name from the ballot.That determination was also used in Maine where a totalitarian Secretary of State unilaterally attempted to remove Trump from that state’s ballots.The determination – un-adjudicated – is the basis for the entire argument to disqualify Trump from any ballot for the 2024 General Election.But unless we are suspending the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment, no adjudication of insurrection can be leveled at the former President.But, wait Frank? When did Trump stand trial for insurrection?The highest legal authority in the United States where presidential misconduct is adjudicated is the Legislative Branch through the execution of the impeachment process. The “indictment” is executed in the US House of Representatives in the form of the actual impeachment, and the “trail” takes place in the US Senate with the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court presiding.The second time the impeachment-happy Democrats, under US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), politicized the provision, the 117th US Congress adopted one article of impeachment against Trump – “incitement of insurrection” – stating that he had incited the January 6 attack of the US Capitol. Mr. Trump was found to be indictable according to the majority Democrat chamber.Trump stood “trial” in the US Senate on charges of “incitement of insurrection” on February 9, 2021, a trial which ended on February 13, 2021, with an acquittal on the single charge leveled against him. The jury (the Senate) voted 57-43 to acquit, some 10 votes short of the two-thirds needed to remove a sitting president. Trump was acquitted on the charge of “incitement to insurrection.”Let me say that again for those with an attention span problem. Donald Trump was acquitted of “incitement to insurrection” in the only court with authority over presidential misconduct on February 13, 2021.Acquitted.So, barring the repeal of the Fifth Amendment’s protection against Double Jepoeardy, any jurisdiction or authority – any news media outlet or pundit – still abusing the idea that Trump is an insurrectionist is criminally violating his Fifth Amendment right to protection from being charged twice for the same perceived crime.Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton get to commit crimes and walk away from any charges because, well, we just don’t indict sitting presidents or secretaries of state (insert eye-roll here). But Donald Trump has his Fifth Amendment rights suspended so he can be exposed to illegal and unconstitutional political persecution?I don’t know why the brain trust around Trump isn’t doing this, but his lawyers should be suing the pants off everyone and anyone still abusing the notion that he is an insurrectionist for violating the former president’s constitutional rights.When we come back, our regular end-of-week segment on America’s Third Watch, broadcast on the Salem and Genesis Communications Networks.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

On a recent edition of ABC News This Week, host George Stephanopoulos abruptly ended an interview with US Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), because Vance wouldn’t take a knee to the idea that the Executive Branch bureaucracy has autonomy outside the pleasure of the President of the United States and that rulings by the US Supreme Court (SCOTUS) can never be challenged or subverted. Both notions are ridiculous.In the past, when being interviewed, I have stated emphatically that the biggest mistake of Donald Trump’s presidency was that he didn’t either outright fire or at least relieve of duty and reassign all of the upper- and mid-level political appointments at the Department of Justice, The US Treasury, the Pentagon, and the US State Department. That delinquency came back to damage Trump’s ability to achieve many things during his presidency and set the stage for the Deep State bureaucratic political opposition plaguing his current presidential run.Each civil servant in the federal bureaucracy serves at the pleasure of the President of the United States because the president is the ipso facto Executive Branch. He is elected by the citizens to execute the tasks of the federal government and to do so per the letter of the law. Each employee of the Federal government works for the president, and just like any other employer, when a subordinate fails to execute his or her duties, or if they usurp the authority thereof, they are and should be subject to termination.But Stephanopoulos – a former Senior Advisor to President Bill Clinton, challenged Vance on the president’s authority to terminate civil servants for their failure to execute presidential policy when, in fact, that is what any federal employee is employed to do. And Stephanopoulos did so with incredulous arrogance as if to insist that the Deep State bureaucracy has a constitutional authority to exist unilaterally outside of the President’s prerogative; independent from presidential and legislated policy.To Stephanopoulos’s contention that a SCOTUS decision can never be challenged or subverted, I was shocked that Vance didn’t point out the usurpations of SCOTUS rulings currently taking place under the Biden administration. SCOTUS ruled, in no uncertain terms, that the Executive Branch did not have the authority to forgive student loans, yet – to this day – the Biden administration continues to use taxpayer dollars to forgive student loans that were issued in good faith and with the expectation that they would be repaid. The power of the purse is exclusively reserved for the US House of Representatives. So with each loan forgiven, there is a violation of the separation of powers.SCOTUS also ruled that race could not be used in determining college admissions. Yet the Biden administration is pursuing the ability to use race-based admissions criteria at West Point, again defying the High Court.And as for fidelity to the Constitution? We need to look no further than Biden’s abuse of the Take Care Clause.The Take Care Clause in the United States Constitution, found in Article II, Section 3 states, “[the president] shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed”, meaning the president is obligated to execute the laws enacted by Congress and to ensure that the laws are faithfully executed. It emphasizes the president’s duty to enforce all constitutionally valid Acts of Congress, regardless of their alignment with the president’s personal views or policies.That certainly doesn’t sound like what’s happening on our country’s Southern border, does it?Then we should look at every non-legislated regulation coming out of the cabinet-level departments and agencies. The very act of Congress allowing the Executive Branch to craft ipso facto law through the establishment of non-legislated regulatory power is unconstitutional and SCOTUS has ruled as much in a case against the EPA. Yet the regulatory tyranny of the Executive Branch reigns on.Further, Biden’s abuse of the Executive order is clear and defined. There are specific criteria that need to be met to ensure a balance of power and accountability before a Chief Executive is allowed to issue an Executive Order.The foremost criterion for a president to issue an Executive Order is a clear constitutional authority. Executive Orders cannot exceed the president's constitutional authority or infringe upon the powers reserved for other branches of government.A president must also base Executive Orders on existing legislation or statutes so that they align with the laws enacted by Congress, ensuring that the president's actions are consistent with the legislative framework.The criteria for addressing issues related to national security or emergencies involve a genuine and imminent threat to the nation, necessitating swift action and honest transparency about the circumstances and their justifications.And this is where Vance should have slammed into Stephanopoulos’s argument with a tank. Executive Orders can also be used to streamline and improve the efficiency of government operations. Therefore Trump would have had every right and constitutional authority to reorganize agencies, streamline procedures, or eliminate redundancies.Before an Executive Order is issued, the president has a constitutional obligation to consider the potential benefits and drawbacks of the order for the general welfare of the population. Did Biden check this box when he issued his EO on student loan forgiveness? Didn’t he consider many in our nation would see the move of using taxpayer dollars to pay off loans for doctors and lawyers as an act of income redistribution and thievery?Lastly, the criteria for using the power of Executive Order mandates that any EO has a limited scope, focusing on specific issues rather than attempting to legislate broadly. A president must avoid using orders to circumvent the legislative process and should reserve them for situations where swift action is necessary.How are diversity, equity, and inclusion in military academy admissions policies a matter of immediacy and/or national security? For that matter, why do student loans qualify for any EO action?In matters like this, it is the insistence of the insister that is the most egregious element. Just because Stephanopoulos wants something to be so doesn’t mean he has the right to use his position in the media to deceive the public. And just because he wants to play the media gotcha game with a member of the opposition party doesn’t mean he gets to ignore the facts of the matter.Stephanopoulos is doing both here and illustrates why the American people find mainstream media operatives lower than whale shit. Now, my segment on America’s Third Watch, as broadcast coast-to-coast on the Salem and Genesis Communications Networks.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

We get into this topic at the end of Friday’s America’s Third Watch segment but I wanted to address the issue more thoroughly. The level of constitutional illiteracy held by US Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) – not to mention US Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Ed Markey (D-MA) – in their proposed legislation to force a private sector company to abide by governmental edict is beyond stunning. It is grotesque.Walgreens, the Deerfield, Illinois-based pharmacy chain, recently closed a location in Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, which happens to be in Pressley’s district. Walgreens has closed three store locations in the Boston Area since 2022.The reason for these closures is simply. Because they existed in high-crime neighborhoods and were routinely targeted for robberies, it became economically unfeasible to allow those locations to remain open.Add to that the fact that Boston – a Blue urban area – has adopted the intellectually stunted policy of decreased police response and rate of prosecution under the guise of “equity” and the matter becomes one of economic survival and employee safety. It isn’t profitable or safe for these locations to remain functional.But, wouldn’t you know it, Pressley – perhaps one of the most egregious race baiters elected to federal office, almost broke herself getting to the microphone to play the race card:That Warren and Markey decided to coattail on this absurd protestation stands as testimony to how little our elected officials understand the laws of economics, the Constitution, and the many forms of government in the world.The United States was founded – and thrived to become the greatest economic power on the face of the planet – on the employment of a free market system. People produce products and/or offer services and the market determines the rate of compensation by establishing a level of compensation agreeable to all parties.That’s the way it was supposed to be. But ever since the US federal government raped the Commerce Clause and twisted the Supremacy Clause into origami to give the federal government much more authority over our daily lives than originally attended, we have moved away from a free market system.Today government interference is prevalent across what was once a free market. Executive Branch regulatory authority means we have to ask permission from the government to do anything in the marketplace. You need a license to:* Collect rainwater* Go fishing* Own property* Start a business* Renovate your home* Build a home* Operate a vehicle* Get married* Hunt* Own a weapon* Cut hair* Sell a product* Protest* Grow food on your property* Sell food* Set up a lemonade stand in many placesThe list goes on and on and now, evidently – according to Pressley, Warren, and Markey – the government is now assuming the authority to tell you where you will operate your businesses and when you can close them.The definition of fascism is:“...a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.”Understanding how intrusive our federal government is in the private sector allegedly “free” market, it is hard not to check the box next to each one of those qualifiers. All you have to do is replace the word “dictator” with “oligarchy” and we are there.The solution to this despotic power grab is not to “vote them out” – although it would be a great place to start. Truth is because electoral party politics biorhythms like a pendulum from conservative to liberal “vote them out” doesn’t work.No, the solution is for the 50 states to take back the power they foolishly let the federal government take from them and that can be achieved through the use of nullification.I lay out a solid plan to implement nullification – and more – in my book, Nullification: The Case for Decentralizing the Federal Government, available on Amazon in paperback and in Kindle form.Encouraging and aiding our state governments to tame the federal government shows neofascists like Pressley the door; the days of their ideological bullying and grifting the taxpayers at an end.Together, we can achieve this and we can save the Republic. We just have to be cohesive in our determination to do so.Now, Friday’s segment on America’s Third Watch, as broadcast coast-to-coast on the Salem and Genesis Communications Networks.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

I’d like to touch on a subject that GenZers and GenZ Alphas – and maybe even some later Millennials – wouldn’t fully understand from experience. The subject matter is what most people mistakenly call “radical Islam.” It is important for a couple of significant reasons, one of which concerns what is happening in the Middle East today.People who were alive and aware during and after the attacks on September 11, 2001, had the opportunity to hear the open debate that took place about the covenants and tenets of Islam. During that debate a popular notion – albeit one based on an untruth and a defective understanding of the Quran and Hadith – was that Islam is a “religion of peace.” It is not. It never has been. But that didn’t keep people of influence from declaring it so.From Presidents like George W Bush and Barack Obama……to failed presidential candidates like Hillary Clinton… …the preferred narrative was clear: Islam is a religion of peace.But perhaps the preeminent scholar on the Quran, Hadith, and Islam in general – Robert Spencer – debunks that motion in short order…I bring this up because of the epidemic of GenZ, GenZ Alpha, and Millenials who have taken to the streets in support of Hamas, claiming the entirety of the West exists as Islamophobic and that the West is the aggressor; that the “religion of peace” is under attack.(As an aside, Hamas is a US State Department-recognized terrorist organization supported in its mission by the Muslim Brotherhood – and now heavily funded by the number one state sponsor of terrorism in the world, Iran. The list of their attacks on Israel and Israeli citizens alone is exhaustive.)Islam is a religion of conquest and that conquest, as Spencer pointed out in my brief clip, is executed by the sword. And it is not the “radicalized” Muslim that executes this conquest, it is the devout Muslim that executes this conquest. The demographic within the Muslim world that does commit acts of terrorism is not a demographic that has been “radicalized,” rather, they are simply following the precise teachings in the Quran and Hadith.Some would say, “Well, isn’t that just like the Christians of the Crusades?” Yes and no and irrelevant.While the Christian Crusades were bloody and totalitarian, they were bastardized by politics and the greed for power that has its seeds in every human being. More important is that the Crusades ended with an understanding that they were wrong, ushering in reformation in the Christian church.Further – and here is where Christianity and Islam are incredibly different. The Bible and the Torah and written as secondhand accountings of the teachings of the Christian God. The Quran, Muslims insist, is the literal world of Allah. So, where the Crusaders had to interpret the words of God to justify their actions, Muslims are commanded by the literal word of God to execute what is held within the Quran without interpretation. If a Muslim wants to be devout, he or she must do as commanded.That gives the commanded tenets that Spencer covered specific and explicit meaning, especially Chapter 2, verse 191, which says,“Kill them wherever you come upon them and drive them out of the places from which they have driven you out…”As to the question’s irrelevancy, today it is the devout in the Islamic faith that launch missiles into civilian areas in actions of conquest, not Christians.In the 2000s I served as the Executive Director for BasicsProject.org, an educational 501c3 organization focused on exposing the internal and external threats to the United States and eradicating constitutional illiteracy. The internal threats were centered on progressivism and neo-fascism, and the external threats focused on those emanating from devout Islamism.I have read and studied the books. I know Robert Spencer as well as many others including Wafa Sultan, Paul L. Williams, Walid Phares, Brigette Gabriel, and many others considered learned voices on the topic of Islam. There are at least two things on which we all agree: 1) It is the devout Muslim that poses the threat because of his/her adherence to the letter of the Quran, and 2) Islam is not a religion of peace.And so it is that the onus of any effort to demilitarize the Islamic culture must weigh heavily on the devout within the Islamic faith. It is they who must reject the violence that is commanded by Allah in the Quran, and that will take a reformation that will – necessarily – move the over 1 billion Muslims away from the “literal teachings” of their god. That is no small task.What can help this reformation along is this. The West needs to be honest about the issue instead of creating false narratives like “Islam is a religion of peace.” It most certainly is not. And we can also help the Islamic world move away from violence and the use of terrorism as a tool of conquest by establishing the truth that it is not a small number of radicalized Muslims that exploit this tool, but the devout who are simply following the commands of the deity.For the entirety of the West – including the GenZers, GenZ Alphas, and Millenials – to grasp these realities would finally set the stage for meaningful interaction on the matter with those in the Islamic world. Until then, we need to prepare for more Islamofasctic attacks of conquest in lands not already under the totalitarian and violent thumbs of Islamic Sharia Law.Now, this morning’s segment on America’s Third Watch with Kyle Warren, broadcast coast-to-coast on the Salem and Genesis Communications Networks…Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get to this morning’s segments on America’s Third Watch with Kyle Warren, in which we discuss both how our federal government got to this level of dysfunction, and a pathway to rectifying this serious issue, I wanted to to point out a prime example of how the federal government abuses the taxpayers to its benefit.Do you know there is a taxpayer-funded White House Medical Unit, complete with a pharmacy, that ineligible people within the administration have been using for over a decade?Let me be clear. A free pharmacy in the White House allows those who have access to it to get free prescription and non-prescription medications. This abuse of taxpayer dollars occurred under both Barack Obama and Donald Trump and is suspected of continuing under the Biden administration.The White House Medical Unit is supposed to be a free-standing medical unit that tends to the medical needs of the President, Vice President, and their families, and select – meaning a very small number of people – few staffers.A January 2024 report by the Department of Defense’s Inspector General indicates that there has been a revolving door at the White House pharmacy:“We found that the White House Medical Unit provided a wide range of health care and pharmaceutical services to ineligible White House staff in violation of Federal law and regulation and DoD policy…Additionally, the White House Medical Unit dispensed prescription medications, including controlled substances, to ineligible White House staff.”First, the Obama Administration gerrymanders legislation that requires the American citizenry to pay for health insurance, including unreasonable pharmaceutical prices which most often see countries around the world paying less than we do in the United States for the same drugs.Then Republicans failed to repeal Obamacare in total even as they controlled both houses of Congress.Now we find out that free prescription and non-prescription medication has been doled out to White personnel – and beyond – for over a decade?Wouldn’t you like to go to a pharmacy where you didn’t have to pay for your prescription medications…and maybe even bring your friends so they can get free prescription medication, too?This is just another perfect example of how much contempt the federal government has for the American citizenry. The idea that the elected class “serves” the people is ludicrous. We have already transformed from a Constitutional Republic to a system of Lords and serfs.The World Economic Forum has nothing on the “gorge at the taxpayer feed trough” US federal government.It is time – in fact, well past time – that we re-empower the individual states so that the government closest to the citizen is the one most easily managed and changed. Then we can dismantle the bureaucratic Deep State one immoral and corrupt brick at a time.When we come back, this Morning’s America Third Watch segments…Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get into Monday’s America’s Third Watch segment, I wanted to play Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' presidential campaign suspension speech. It is just five minutes long, but it illustrates the humble modesty of a true leader.Far from utilizing the typical “blame everyone else” political move that just about every inside-the-beltway politician uses when things don’t go their way, DeSantis accepted the realities of the matter:It bears noting that his campaign suspension was followed immediately by an endorsement of what can now only be seen as the overwhelming favorite for the GOP, former President Donald Trump.Different from most political creatures, DeSantis didn’t name-call or castigate. He outlined what he was fighting for and will be fighting for in the last two years of his governorship and beyond.And rather than personally attack former South Carolina Governor Mikki Haley, he simply pointed out the obvious facts about the timber and reality of her campaign; that she has outed herself as a corporatist and a Deep State player, two qualities we do not need in a President at this period in history.Floridians know how devoted to individualism and freedom DeSantis is, so we supported him in his candidacy. And while the media likes to say that DeSantis' historical win in Florida for a second gubernatorial term was made possible by an endorsement from Donald Trump, that is about as far from the truth as can be.DeSantis won a landslide second term because he had fidelity to the people and the Constitution. He won a historic re-election because he kept his promises and took the tough stands that most governors in the United States shied away from for fear of criticism.What the future might hold for Governor DeSantis is unknown. But I truly hope it isn’t the last we hear of him in the public realm.Until then, we must all band together to beat back the scourge of Marxism that has made significant headway in our country courtesy of the neo-fascist Left’s co-opting of the Democrat Party. We must cause a fissure between the far-Left faction in that party and the real Democrats. It’s the only way to save the Republic from the poison of globalism and the totalitarianism of the monsters at the World Economic Forum.Then, this Monday’s America Third Watch segment…Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Before we get into Friday’s America’s Third Watch segment, in which we talk a lot about the situation in Gaza and our Southern border here in the US, I wanted to point out some promising talk coming out of all places, the World Economic Forum’s annual conference of elitist clowns in Davos.On the off chance that you are not paying attention to the narcissistic globalists at the World Economic Forum’s annual Davos get-together (insert eye-roll here), I’d like to share with you my surprise at a question-and-answer session and a speech.In both instances, the speakers presented a full-throated condemnation of Marxism and anti-individualism, with one presenter going as far as to declare those in attendance at Davos a part of the problem. You could almost feel the crowd’s righteous indignation.Starting with the latter presenter first, we have Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, who declared in no uncertain terms his dismay with the entire World Economic Forum assumption that they are soothsayers and the future of the world.Then to the speech of the day, courtesy of Argentina’s newly elected president, Javier Milei, who made a case for reversing course from the global march to socialism.It is well past time that the free world pushed back against the self-righteously arrogant globalists who make up the World Economic Forum. At its simplest explanation, the Forum is nothing but an invitation-only gathering of snobbish narcissists who believe because they made a better widget and got rich off of it that somehow they have the intellectual capacity to rule the world by whim.Of course, both Roberts and Milei will undoubtedly pay a price for the truths they extolled in Davos. The Forum’s führer, Klaus Schwab (why do we listen to German totalitarians about their visions for the future), simply can’t allow non-conformity in the quest for the elite to rule the world.Just as history will see Milei as a champion of freedom, classical liberalism, and individualism, so too will those who voice the truth about the benefits of individualism – like Roberts at the Heritage – and the dangers of centralized and Marxist-based government as global patriots and defenders of inalienable rights and equality for all.To that end, we – those who understand the benefits of the free market and the dangers of totalitarianism in all its forms – must be vocal. We must talk about it; and teach. We must start respectfully and tactfully talking politics with our neighbors. If we don’t because we are too worried about what they will think, the next generations won’t have the freedom to worry about such things.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe

Many narratives were crafted about the protest that occurred at the US Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. Almost all of the ones produced by Congress and the mainstream media shop the narrative of a violent mob that, unprovoked, stormed the Capitol Building while elected officials cowered in fear.But that is the preferred narrative; the narrative those in power want you to believe.Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why the elected class was so reticent in releasing the full complement of surveillance video to the American public? It is a valid and important question to have answered.Over 1,300 people were arrested and charged with various crimes related to the January 6th protest. Of that – three years on, 53 percent of those arrested (548 individuals) still await trial and another 220 individuals still wanted by the FBI. As to those still awaiting trial, their incarceration violates their Fourth and Sixth Amendment rights to due process and a speedy trial. Their continued incarceration moves them to the class of political prisoners.J6: A True Timeline is an important documentary that establishes a certifiable timeline using “evidence from hundreds of J6 trials, as well as evidence from bodycam footage, radio communications, and police officer testimony,” so that we all can better understand what happened that day, who was responsible, and what went wrong.The documentary does not editorialize. Instead, it “chronologically recounts the significant events of the day as they unfolded.” The opening paragraph on the efforts archival page at Open.Ink reads:“J6: A True Timeline gives the audience a never-before-seen timestamped blueprint for the events of January 6, 2021, as they unfolded in real-time. No other film to date fills the gaps or tells the story chronologically the way this film does. The film is also different from anything produced to date because a small group of protestors, some of whom are J6 defendants, have been the ones to collect hours of footage to help contextualize the events of the day. The film was funded and produced entirely through small donations and tens of thousands of volunteer man-hours. The hope is that the film will provoke all Americans to be more curious about the true timeline of January 6.”Whether you vote Democrat, Republican, or Third Party, please, take the time to watch this documentary…and then consider what the power players wanted you to believe.Take Back Your Mind...Think For Yourself...Support Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe
