Remembering Eric Washington: Mike Gipson's Raw Tribute

California Assemblymember Mike Gipson sits down with Dr. Nii-Quartelai Quartey for a raw, personal tribute to former staffer Eric Washington, who was killed while trying to de-escalate violence at a Compton Fourth of July gathering.

From Vanity to Insanity: Trump's Birthday Grift

SiriusXM host and New York Times bestselling author John Fugelsang ("Separation of Church and Hate") joins Dr. Nii-Quartelai Quartey for hour two to unpack the 29-year-old democratic socialist who just ended a 30-year congressional career in Colorado, Maryland Governor Wes Moore's direct challenge to Trump's July 4th message, and a bombshell congressional report accusing the White House of turning America's 250th birthday into a fundraising and data-harvesting operation—a report literally titled "From Vanity to Insanity."

The Supreme Court just wiped out 91 years of precedent, handing one president more unchecked power over federal agencies than any before him.

What does it mean to risk everything — your life, your family, your future — for a stranger?

During one of history's darkest chapters, these ordinary people made an extraordinary decision: to save Jewish lives at any cost.

This is a conversation about history, humanity, and the moral choices that define us — especially when no one is watching.
