Welcome to Daylight Savings Time! Still awake to enjoy the beautiful long day? A taste of summer, at the expense of sleep. Don't worry, this week's show will keep you on the edge of your seat.
We're going to talk about the war in Ukraine, of course -- and isn't it interesting how Joe Biden, who was ridiculing Mitt Romney in 2012 for warning us about Russia, is blaming everything going wrong in his presidency on Putin? Biden's right not to take steps that could lead to an escalation -- but he put us in this position. NATO is tiptoeing around Putin rather than the other way around, because instead of Putin having to worry about whatever Trump might do, we have to worry about what he might do. There was an arms race toward crazy, and it turned out crazy was a pretty good deterrent, but the election went the other way, and Russia beat us in crazy. Or, to use a chess metaphor, Biden chose to play with the black pieces, who move second, meaning that the best we can hope for (absent a colossal blunder, which I wouldn't rule out) is a draw.
Inflation is among the many things for which Biden blames Putin -- and we'll talk about that, too. It's one lie too many for the American media, who noted this weekend that inflation began almost as soon as Biden took office. What does it mean, going forward? Well, Congress is busy spending billions on earmarks, thanks to Democrats -- and a majority of House Republicans, mind you -- who brought back the practice. Plus: the Florida "don't say gay" bill still doesn't say "gay." We'll talk about all of it. You'll want to hear it.
Special guests:
Dan Eberhart -- CEO of Canary USA, on electric cars as an alternative
Steve Ellis -- President of Taxpayers for Common Sense, on earmarks
Melanie Israel -- Researcher at Heritage, on Democrats' social radicalism

Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.
Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.
One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.
"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
