In this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Sara and her panel break down the debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz. Walz’s overly folksy demeanor is criticized while Vance is praised for his calm, polished approach, which reinforces him as a strong GOP leader. The panel highlights how Vance embodies Trump’s spirit without overshadowing him, pushing back against biased media narratives. They also discuss Trump's evolution, noting how his aggressive style once alienated independent voters but has since matured, especially after facing opposition from deep-seated institutions like the FBI and CIA. This comes into focus with Trump's multiple indictments. Sara delves into Walz’s controversy over false claims about being in Hong Kong during the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, calling it part of his pattern of dishonesty. Concerns also rise about Walz's alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party revealed by DHS whistleblowers. Walz's bizarre claim about "becoming friends with school shooters" adds further concerns about his transparency. Meanwhile, the panel critiques media outlets like Politico and MSNBC for their biased coverage, contrasting absurd praise of Walz’s performance with critiques of Vance’s appearance, highlighting the media's disconnect from reality. Sara and her guests conclude that independent media may be the future as the public increasingly distrusts mainstream outlets. The episode also touches on “Vindicating Trump,” Dinesh D'Souza’s latest film, which showcases Trump's resilience against attacks, from character assassination to legal battles, reinforcing his strength as the GOP's leader in these turbulent times. Sara is joined by Jason Buttrill, chief writer and researcher for Glenn Beck, and Dinesh D'Souza, filmmaker and best-selling author.

D'Souza's latest work, “Vindicating Trump,” is available as both a book and a movie, with the film currently in theaters. www.VindicatingTrump.com
