Description

Guests - Jon Riches, Joel Strabala, James Rogers, Michael Letts Graham Plattner's exit from the Maine Senate race opens the week — and Winn argues he didn't just drop out, he poisoned the well for whoever Democrats scramble to replace him with by July 27th. Jon Riches of the Goldwater Institute explains how Kris Mayes's two-year campaign to bury Arizona's ESA program in paperwork — requiring curriculum documentation for pencil purchases — finally collapsed when her legal justification turned out to be as thin as the paper she was demanding. Joel Strabala delivers the final ballot deadline alert with a paid ballot-chasing opportunity attached. James Rogers breaks down the Arizona Supreme Court's total victory for Justin Heap, reveals that Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell was filing amicus briefs against the recorder she was supposed to represent, and announces his own LD10 candidacy as the legislature's next election law expert. And Michael Letts closes the week with a sobering intelligence briefing on teen takeovers, coordinated criminal networks, a black market weapons pipeline traced back to Ukraine aid, and the endgame he says is already in motion.

Guests - Andy Biggs, Ava Chen, Alex Kolodin, Laurie Moore

Guests - Andy Biggs, Ava Chen, Alex Kolodin, Laurie Moore Andy Biggs calls in with a strong poll and a simple message: don't celebrate before you cross the finish line — there are two weeks left and Katie Hobbs has nothing to run on except a record she's actively trying to hide. Ava Chen delivers a three-part China Watch update: why Miles Guo is refusing a pardon and fighting for full exoneration in the Second Circuit, how Hunter Biden's own social media post inadvertently confirmed the political persecution theory, and new NFSC intelligence warning of a 50% probability that Russia deploys biochemical weapons as part of CCP-backed hybrid warfare. Alex Kolodin breaks down the Arizona Supreme Court's total victory for Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap — and explains why the ruling changes the legal landscape for all 15 Arizona counties heading into November. And Laurie Moore calls in from Delaware, where she already voted and mailed her ballot back before some Sahuarita residents received theirs.

Guests - Anthony Dunham, Jeff Rhodes, Gilda Carle, Elijah Norton, Joel Strabala, Rick Shafton

Guests - Anthony Dunham, Jeff Rhodes, Gilda Carle, Elijah Norton, Joel Strabala, Rick Shafton Anthony Dunham brings a retired judge on the record to call his opponent's child abuse mailers categorically false — and names the reporter who was told the same thing months before the hit piece went out. Jeff Rhodes breaks down the write-in mechanics for Supervisor District 5 and explains why getting one more Republican on the board matters even without flipping the majority. Dr. Gilda Carle makes the case that young women have been deliberately radicalized against family formation — and finds unlikely hope in Taylor Swift's decision to get married. Elijah Norton reports debate straw poll results of 68-to-4 and argues the treasurer's race never should have been a primary. Joel Strabala opens a listener hotline and collects a cascade of ballot irregularities in real time. And Rick Shafton closes the week with a tactical blueprint for how Arizona Republicans should handle every Democratic opponent in November — regardless of how moderate they claim to be.

Guests - Joel Strabala, Betsy Smith, Charles Heller, Dave Smith. Gary Benoit Joel Strabala opens the week with a ballot emergency alert — thousands of voters purged from rolls, Green Valley stripped of 10 polling places while the mobile voting center skips right past it, and a July 10th deadline to fix registration problems before it's too late. Betsy Brantner Smith returns from vacation to cover the Charlie Kirk murder preliminary hearing, a violent teen takeover in Raleigh that left nine people shot, and a Tucson Police Department memo ordering officers to disarm before voting — a policy she says her law enforcement contacts across the country simply can't believe is real. Charles Heller recaps the 21st annual Declaration reading at Udall Park and makes the case for turning it into a replicable national tradition. Dave Smith connects socialism's rise to a culture of envy, a media blackout, and Republicans who don't read enough. And Gary Benoit closes with a Cato Institute poll that should alarm everyone: 46% of Americans — and 61% of Gen Z — don't know what the nation's 250th anniversary even commemorates.

Guests - Rodney Glassman, Joel Strabala, Edward Bartlett

Guests - Rodney Glassman, Joel Strabala, Edward Bartlett Rodney Glassman makes his closing argument for the AG primary — centering on prosecutorial experience, a day-one plan to withdraw Arizona from all 42 of Kris Mayes's lawsuits, and a warning that a sloppily written legislative resolution may accidentally kill the election-integrity measure Republicans worked years to get on the November ballot. Joel Strabala walks through every ballot deadline, drop box location, and observer slot still open heading into the final three weeks of the primary. And Edward Bartlett closes out the week with a data-driven challenge to feminist ideology — citing CDC domestic violence statistics, a stunning Pew mental health survey, and a fertility rate that's quietly closing schools across the country — while Winn connects it all to the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the fragile momentum of young men finding their way back to traditional values.
