Trump’s own supporters are saying they see this as a real challenge.

They are trying to keep the Biden/Harris money away from Harris and have even filed Impeachment papers against her in Congress. We will talk to former federal prosecutor turned defense attorney David Katz about that and so much more.

Biden Gets Serious About Stepping Back: Implications for 2024 Election 7/19/24
19 JUL 2024 · “People see the walls closing in,” that’s what one senior Democrat told CNN. The network is reporting that more than two dozen sources familiar with life inside the West Wing say there is widespread acceptance that President Biden remaining in the race is untenable. Trump took the stage last night at the RNC and while his speech was supposed to be unifying, he slipped back into his dividing rhetoric, talking about stolen elections and badmouthing President Biden. It was not a speech to bring the country together. The night brought a rare Melania sighting. She stood and waved but broke with tradition by opting out of speaking in support of her husband. We will talk politics and we will also have a little bit of levity to end this wild week. Friday Fabulous Florida is upon us once again with gators in the mix. Culture Blaster Michael Snyder will also swing by to talk movies and pop culture.

18 JUL 2024 · With a chorus of Democrats suggesting President Biden withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, Vice President Harris is thought to be the next logical choice. New polling shows she may have an issue in swing states and she wasn't among the four potential candidates who performed best in a survey of voters. Our favorite Britisher Anthony Davis, journalist, host of Five Minute News and host on the Meidas Touch “The Weekend Show” will help break it down. Former federal prosecutor and now defense attorney David Katz will swing by the show to talk about the possibility of Supreme Court reform being floated by President Biden along with other legal matters.

Presidential historian and political analyst John Rothmann will stop by the show to discuss the RNC events and more. “It’s the Planet, Stupid!” brings eco journalist Belinda Waymouth to the show to talk about new environmental developments, like printable, solar panels and recyclable fabric. Humans are finding inventive ways to help our planet.
Trump Chooses Vance as Running Mate, Signaling Surge in Right-Wing Influence 7/16/24
16 JUL 2024 · The Republican National Convention is in full swing. Anti-trans and anti-immigrant messages filled the convention center on Day 1.
