Journalist Lara Logan calls in with a firsthand perspective on the Iraqi people and honest reporting in the Middle East. Rep. Chris Stewart argues that U.S. intelligence proves that America can benefit greatly from Trump’s actions, but Nancy Pelosi and the Left must stop siding with Iran over Trump.

Also, NASA may have found Earth II, and the first British astronaut has claimed aliens exist, but may be invisible. Transgender “activist” Jessica Yaniv is back with another waxing lawsuit. And Glenn and Stu realize there are still over a dozen Democrats running for president!

Economics and living standards are better than ever both at home and abroad, yet the Democrats and young socialists can’t see the forest for the trees.

The Covington kids, Jussie Smollett, the Mueller report, Greta Thunberg, Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes – the list of fiascoes just goes on and on. And Michael Moore telling you to fear two out of three white men (because they voted for Trump) is indicative of something much more sinister emanating from the Left.

Mike Broomhead joins the program to tell you the truth about what has been going on behind the scenes of the Trump impeachment proceedings. Many Democrats made doomsday predictions when President Trump was elected. Now, three full years later, why are so many STILL in denial about how well the economy is doing? The Steele dossier remains completely unsubstantiated, so why has it been treated like doctrine in a court of law? Why do the FISA courts even exist?

Hour 1: Mike Broomhead joins the program to tell you the truth about what has been going on behind the scenes of the Trump impeachment proceedings. President Trump’s judicial appointments now make up a full quarter of the judiciary. Will the health of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg drive the Left to take drastic measures? The Democrats’ potential gross abuse of the 25th Amendment could have dire consequences. The Obama White House’s abuse of investigative power prior to the 2016 election has come full circle. Hour 2: Many Democrats made doomsday predictions when President Trump was elected. Now, three full years later, why are so many STILL in denial about how well the economy is doing? Unemployment has plummeted while the Dow Jones has soared – Americans should be dancing in the streets. Will the president be able to get through to people in the Midwest with his message of “promises made, promises kept”? Hour 3: The Steele dossier remains completely unsubstantiated, so why has it been treated like doctrine in a court of law? Why do the FISA courts even exist? Because those engaging in surveillance were putting your rights on the back burner. Virginia is on the brink. The very purpose of the Second Amendment could be on display if sweeping gun control measures are implemented by force.
