TRRS 06-03-26 The Kids Are Not Alright -- The Embrace of Socialism and The Death Of the American Dream

Do young Americans really prefer communism over capitalism — or have they been taught the complaints without ever learning the cost? Today on The Rick Robinson Show, we dig into the polling, the education pipeline, activist networks, soft-on-crime city policy, and last night’s election results to ask how socialism became normal-sounding to a generation buried under rent, debt, inflation, and broken institutions. This is not a simple ‘kids these days’ rant. It is a look at how worldview, economics, academia, NGOs, big-city politics, and weak consequences all collide — and why the Right has to do more than yell ‘Marxist’ if it wants to win the next generation.

TRRS 06-01-26 #America250 -- The Report Card Came Back Red, White and Bruised

America’s 250th birthday should be an easy celebration — flags, fireworks, history, and gratitude. Instead, patriotism feels weaker, more divided, and strangely controversial. Today, Rick connects the dots among declining national pride, decades of centralized, test-driven education, the collapse of civics and U.S. history proficiency, and the rise of socialist-aligned candidates filling the civic vacuum. America does not need propaganda. It needs memory.

TRRS 05-29-26 Finally Friday: Red Lines and Wake-Up Calls

Today on The Rick Robinson Show, we’re drawing the line between politics and power abuse — from the apparent swatting attempt at Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s home to blue-state Democrats floating a 100% tax on anti-weaponization payouts.  We’ll look at voter wake-up calls in Georgia, California, and Texas, America 250 already turning into a cultural food fight, Oklahoma’s SQ 832 minimum wage vote, Iran testing America’s red lines, and why rockets, pilots, and the Thunder all remind us what happens when America gets hit and answers back.

TRRS 05-27-26 When the Base Talks, Washington Better Listen

Texas voters just sent Washington a message loud enough to shake both parties. John Cornyn is out, Ken Paxton is in, and the old idea that seniority equals automatic renewal took a serious hit. But the Texas reset did not stop with Republicans — Democratic voters rejected Maureen Galindo’s radicalism in TX-35, Al Green’s impeachment-theater era came to an end, and Oklahoma’s governor race is already showing signs of voter restlessness. Today on The Rick Robinson Show, we break down what the Texas runoffs really mean, why Republicans cannot sleepwalk into November against James Talarico, what Oklahoma voters need to know before the June primary, and why trust keeps showing up as the central issue in story after story — from Biden’s Hur tapes to Minneapolis police leadership to activists getting reality hilariously wrong outside an ICE facility. And because America is still bigger than the political mess, we close with the loud, weird, patriotic build-up to America’s 250th birthday — Hoover Dam, White House UFC, IndyCars on the National Mall, tall ships and all.

#TRRS 05-22-26 When the Rules Get in the Way

Today on The Rick Robinson Show: courts, consequences, fake consensus, and political institutions that only seem to love the rules when the rules help them win. Rick breaks down Virginia’s court-retaliation fight, the DNC’s Biden-free 2024 autopsy, Iran’s reported assassination-bounty talk, Rubio at NATO, New York’s anti-ICE push, Senate GOP dysfunction, California’s fake grassroots politics, and a Friday culture close on Hollywood and late-night TV discovering the audience has options.
