We will, power supply permitting, be broadcasting live from within Tropical Storm (no longer Hurricane) Hilary, right here in L.A. Right now it is raining and there are some wind gusts; hopefully we will be all right thru showtime this evening, although anything can happen.
We are looking forward to debate week, up in Milwaukee. I will be there on the ground, and in the spin room, throwing elbows as usual.
Some of my questions will be directed toward Republicans like Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who seem to think it's a great idea that some states could use (abuse) the 14th Amendment to push Trump off the ballot.
Meanwhile, in real news... the New York Times revealed that Hunter Biden was going to get off scot-free until whistleblowers came forward to complain about the way his case was being (mis)handled.
We'll talk about the 2nd anniversary of the Kabul, Afghanistan, airport bombing, which took place on August 26, 2021. We'll interview the "canceled" author, Scott Adams, about his new "reframing" book.
And... we'll interview one of the 19 defendants in the Georgia case against Trump, the one claiming he participated in "racketeering" to overturn the 2020 presidential election. A great show indeed...
With special guests:
Scott Adams - Dilbert creator and author of "Reframe Your Brain"
Jenna Ellis - former Trump lawyer, co-defendant in Georgia
Frances Martel - Breitbart News national security editor

This is the final edition of THE AGENDA -- finished a few days early!
This week's portion elucidates some of the first laws and principles of the Torah that follow the Ten Commandments, including -- a message particularly relevant to freed slaves -- the Jewish restrictions on indentured servitude.
God also provides the basic civil laws of Jewish society, governing almost every area of life -- in this one portion! -- as well as several basic principles of faith and religious observance. Moses then ascends Sinai for 40 days.
One of the laws God gives is the law against taunting a foreigner. This is different from allowing people to enter your land illegally; it is about showing respect, however, for people from other lands and other groups.
I am reminded of the importance of this principle because of the rhetoric lately attacking Elon Musk, a fellow South African-turned-American, for his foreign roots -- often by people who favor illegal immigration, ironically.

Since the Palisades Fire on January 7, my posts have been fairly sparse. I have just been so busy -- fighting the fire, covering the fire, helping neighbors, and launching a new podcast, "Three Homeless Guys," with two local friends.
Things are up and down. My family is still displaced, and we haven't resolved our living situation. We are awaiting answers from the insurance company (State Farm) on what they will cover, including alternative living expenses.
There are some incredible opportunities opening up -- more on that later -- and our kids are generally doing well, though this has been hard for them as well (especially the two middle kids, who miss their friends and their house).
The emotion of it all hit me yesterday. Today I feel wrung out. But I also feel that, in a way, going through the fire has been a process of refinement, of re-casting in a new mould, to face new challenges. And to win each new day.
So much to talk about, once again, as the Trump administration continues at breakneck pace. From DOGE chewing through the federal bureaucracy, to Marco Rubio heading out on his first missions for Trump, there's so much...

Matt Boyle -- Breitbart News political editor, on DOGE and confirmations
Jamie Paige -- founder of the Westside Current, on L.A. politics and the fires
Frances Martel -- Breitbart News foreign editor, on Rubio and Russia/Ukraine
Rob Hersov -- South African commentator, on SA's fight with the White House
