David Rutherford Show: #1 Economist Warns - The Fed Turned 66% of Gen Z Socialist

68 cents of every dollar in your wallet were printed in the last 18 years. The other 32 cents took 200 years to create. That's what the Federal Reserve actually did to your money. Brian Wesbury is the Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, former Chief Economist for the Joint Economic Committee of the U.S. Congress, and ranked the #1 economic forecaster in America by The Wall Street Journal. He's been warning about this for decades. David and Brian break down how quantitative easing tripled the money supply, why that created the biggest generational wealth gap in American history (boomers won, Gen Z got crushed), how Jerome Powell's Fed enabled a government spending addiction at artificially cheap rates — and what the new Fed chair Kevin Warsh inherits now that the bill is coming due. They also dig into the Iran conflict's impact on oil and inflation, why two-thirds of Americans under 30 now believe socialism is a better system, and what Brian would tell every young person about building wealth in this economy. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] Follow Brian on X: https://x.com/wesbury [https://x.com/wesbury] Timestamps 00:00 — How the Fed Tripled the Money Supply in 18 Years 09:42 — Why Two-Thirds of Gen Z Now Believe in Socialism  12:19 — Jerome Powell Created This Mess 15:14 — Warsh vs. Powell: The Fed's Civil War 27:25 — The Fed Caused the Great Depression, the '70s, and Covid Inflation 31:41 — Iran, AI, Tariffs, and the Most Complicated Economy in History 33:55 — Building Wealth, College Is Overrated & The Soul of Americans 44:09 — Brian's Message to Every Young Person: Be Who You Are See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: Starting A Militia? Navy SEAL Explains Why You Will Lose

Look, I'm seeing it everywhere — people calling for raising militias, starting a new revolution, fighting back. And I get it. The frustration is real. But as a former Navy SEAL and CIA officer who's actually been in rooms where these operations get planned, I've got some bad news for your militia fantasy. What you'll hear: — David reads from the Declaration of Independence and highlights the line nobody ever quotes the one where the founders tell you NOT to do this lightly.  — The full American rebellion scorecard: 1 win, 7 losses, from Shays' Rebellion to Wounded Knee and why the pattern hasn't changed.  — The government's legal toolkit to destroy you: the Patriot Act, FISA 702, RICO, asset forfeiture, and why your Signal chat isn't as private as you think. — Five things that actually work to push back legally and constitutionally including one David learned from the Amish. — Why getting your own house in order is the most important thing you can do before trying to change the country. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: Saving Lives Under Fire - Marine Recon Corpsman Tom Rader

Tom Rader spent 18 years in emergency medicine — from the streets of Dallas-Fort Worth to a Marine Reconnaissance Battalion in Iraq's Al Anbar Province. He's treated cardiac arrests in the Bronx, trained Marines to handle trauma before their first deployment, and watched his own mother revived in a non-viable state by a friend who didn't know when to stop. David and Tom break down what combat medicine actually teaches you about decision-making, why civilian EMS training is built around passing exams instead of saving lives, the psychological toll of watching people die on their worst day, and why most Americans have lost the basic ability to handle their own emergencies. Tom Rader is a former Navy Corpsman (E-6) who served with a Marine Reconnaissance Battalion in Al Anbar Province, Iraq. He's a civilian paramedic, a Wilderness Medical Associates instructor, and currently teaches wilderness medicine to wildland firefighters and first responders. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] 📕 Get David's novel, The Poet Warrior: https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior [https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior] 📰 Sign up for David's newsletter for free coaching tips, updates, and more: https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/ [https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: Ceasefire Insider Trading. Republican Surveillance Vote. Billionaire-Funded Primary. Navy SEAL Reacts.

Someone placed a $920 million crude oil short at 3:40 a.m. Seventy minutes later, Axios reported an Iran ceasefire deal was imminent. Crude dropped. The short netted $125 million. And nobody's asking who placed the bet. Former Navy SEAL and CIA officer David Rutherford breaks down the four stories the system doesn't want you connecting: the FISA 702 renewal that 193 Republicans just voted for — authorizing the same surveillance machine that was used against Trump, journalists, and 19,000 congressional campaign donors. The Thomas Massie vs. Gallatin primary in Kentucky — now the most expensive congressional primary in American history, bankrolled by three billionaires. The Iran ceasefire that keeps collapsing on schedule — and the insider trading cycle that profits every time it does. And the government's largest-ever UFO document release, dropped in the middle of all of it. David connects the dots with the clarity of someone who's operated inside the intelligence community and seen how power actually works. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] 📕 Get David's novel, The Poet Warrior: https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior [https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior] 📰 Sign up for David's newsletter for free coaching tips, updates, and more: https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/ [https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: The Lie Travel Sports Is Telling Your Kid | Jason Collinsworth

Jason Collinsworth — host of the I Hate Soccer podcast and 11-year youth soccer trainer — joins David to break down what's actually happening inside the multi-billion-dollar youth sports machine. You'll learn why 17 coaches in eight years can produce zero real development, why the leagues your kid is fighting to join are run as gatekeeping cartels, and why most coaches at the youth level can't even articulate a coaching philosophy when asked. David explains why what Jason is describing isn't a soccer problem — it's the same failure pattern you see when any system replaces meticulous individual development with marketing, recruiting, and pay-to-play optics. We break down two-footed training as a confidence-building doctrine, why parents become the threat instead of the support, and what to look for in a coach who's actually going to develop your kid versus one who's going to use them. Jason Collinsworth has spent over a decade running his own training company and is one of the most-watched independent voices in U.S. youth soccer. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] 📕 Get David's novel, The Poet Warrior: https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior [https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior] 📰 Sign up for David's newsletter for free coaching tips, updates, and more: https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/ [https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
