Make A Baby? Make Some Money!

Thursday, January 29, 2026

It's a brilliant idea hatched by the Trump administration and yesterday Stigall travelled to Washington D.C. to cover the formal launch of "Trump Accounts" - $1000 for all babies born 2025-2028, and can partially benefit any child today up to age 18. At a time socialism is on the rise and American birthrates are on the decline - this is a superb way to counter the trends. Hear how it works with Senior Counselor to the Treasury Secretary Joe Lavorgna as well as Senators Blackburn and Cruz. Tomorrow, don't miss Stigall's conversation with Mr. Wonderful Kevin O'Leary. Today, Border Czar Tom Homan held his first press conference in Minneapolis as new video has surfaced on Mr. Pretti from 11 days prior to his death leading many to draw a different conclusion about his behavior and activities. Plus, Secretary of State Marco Rubio puts on a clinic in a Senate hearing yesterday regarding Venezuela, Iran, and more. While John Fetterman continues to be the only Democrat willing to stand up to his party going off the rails with their hatred of federal law enforcement.

Today, enjoy conversations with chief economist Steve Moore and a special discussion with President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, and host of the podcast “The Briefing” Dr. Albert Mohler.

Should We Stay Or Should We Go?

Tuesday, January 27, 2026

Stigall once again brings a healthy dose of truth and a reminder of where we were just one year ago on the issue of immigration in this country with the help of CNN. Yes, CNN. President Trump picked up the phone to call Tim Walz yesterday. He's changing leadership on the ground in Minnesota as well. Is that the right call? Plus Pam Bondi continues to look under the hood at the mass voter fraud in Minnesota and the screaming from Democrats in the state tells you all you need to know. This is the REAL game they can't afford to lose. Taxpayer theft and voter fraud. Kash Patel also says he's committed to continue cracking down on the domestic extremism targeting law enforcement and media through the Sygnal app. Karoline Levitt reminds the press of an uncomfortable fact during the Obama era as it relates to immigration enforcement. Street theater and play acting is the left's currency. Is it working in Minnesota like it did during George Floyd and COVID? Stigall explores.

Today's Show Is Not For Appeasers

Monday, January 26, 2026

Fired up and ready to go - that's Stigall today. After a weekend of social media consumption he's seen all he needs to remind you what's real and what's not. If you don't want stone cold truth about what's happening in Minneapolis and the coverage of events - you'll want to skip today's show. It's not a show for social media crying or careful political consideration. Erin Maguire - Republican strategist also joins the show and dispenses her advice as to how to discuss this for the GOP. And Pennsylvania Senator Dave McCormick urges his colleagues to join him in supporting the very obvious need for the SAVE Act. Why would any Republican oppose it? He'll tell us. Plus, Gavin Newsome gets blow back from his own party after his disgraceful behavior last week in Davos and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent continues to be a legend in political communications.

Busted!

Friday, January 23, 2026

Now we're talking! Some of the goons who stormed a church service last Sunday in St. Paul have now been arrested with more to come. Michael O'Neill from Landmark Legal explains what comes next and gives us his reaction to the raking over the coals of Jack Smith on the Hill yesterday. A stunning system of fraud and abuse inside the Ohio immigration court system has been discovered thanks to brilliant undercover reporting from Townhall.com reporter Amy Curtis who joins the show to lay it out. And we head into NFL Playoff weekend with just four teams left. Assistant head coach of the Seattle Seahawks Leslie Frazier was good enough to join us to share how his team is preparing, what he makes of all the big staffing shakeups across the league, and most of all - his love for Christ and the importance of his prayer life with his fellow coaches and players in the league courtesy of ScriptureUnion.com
You're invited to find the series "Coaches in the Word" - one of their featured series as well as their quarterly Bible guide "Encounter with God."

FAFO A No-Go For NATO

Thursday, January 22, 2026

He did it without a single shot fired or deployment of a single military vehicle. Donald Trump secured an agreement with NATO on Greenland to guarantee its protection while guaranteeing the United States has access to their resources underground. Of course this is always what it was about and despite European chest-thumping to the contrary, President Trump got his wish. "Street Tough" Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and President Trump absolutely pantsed the elite on stage in Davos yesterday. You'll hear it today. Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill - the political hack, and former federal prosecutor Jack Smith will be testifying once again today and the man with the best summary of the charges against him and the questions that demand answers come from John Soloman and Just The News. Stigall asks one of the best investigative reporters in Washington what's the first, most important question he'd ask in these hearings today. Plus, how does he think AG Bondi is doing in terms of accountability? Big Joe Bastardi from Weatherbell.com joins the show to discuss the predicted snow/ice/cold event set to sweep much of the country this weekend. And the brilliant Megan Basham from the Daily Wire stops by to discuss the church attack by leftist mobs and how Christians are to process events like these going forward.

Donald Does Davos

Wednesday, January 21, 2026

Men among boys. Team Trump arrives for the global confab known as the World Economic Forum and all the skinny, tight suited liberal global leaders are taking their shots and thumping their chests ahead of President Trump touching down and reminding them all who's still boss. Congressman Scott Perry visits to discuss everything from acquiring Greenland to holding Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt over their refusal to testify in the Epstein case. One year later, the President goes over a list of accomplishments in a two-hour press conference. How does Daniel Turner of Power the Further think he's done on energy? Did you hear who's thrown her hat in the ring to run for the Senate in Minnesota? Plus the DOJ drops some subpoenas on the Democrat leaders in the state. What's next? Hot Air manager Ed Morrissey explains.

Lemon Gets Squeezed By DOJ

Tuesday, January 20, 2026

Stigall went right to the Department of Justice on one of the biggest stories of the year, as far as he's concerned. Don Lemon and his goons storming a church service is a line all Americans of faith should demand not be crossed. Alina Habba, senior advisor at DOJ joins the show to discuss what charges could come and what churches and places of worship need to know when it comes to their rights. Also, let's be honest about who these protestors are. As a small group of black politicians try to make you think this is some kind of civil rights story, Stigall is convinced no one of color who's a legal American citizen cares even a little bit about ICE doing their jobs. An important profile of just who we're seeing in the streets has emerged and you'll hear about them in today's show. This show - like yesterday's - is critical for understanding just who and what this inorganic street theater is really all about and who's participating.

The Left Thinks Church Is Fair Game Now

Monday, January 19, 2026

If you're a believer - it's not a surprise. It's expected and frankly, it's Biblical. Enemies of those of faith have decided their politics are worth storming churches. The question becomes what will be done legally? How will churches and congregations deal with this legally, morally, and spiritually? Stigall unpacks the reaction from the leader of the invaded church in St. Paul as well as two different pastors and scholars instant reactions online. Mark Weaver, former DOJ spokesman and attorney explains what the DOJ's role might be. Also, is the FBI and DOJ getting ready to announce some big charges many MAGA folks have been waiting for? John Solomon reports that's the case. Erin Maguire is back for Mondays with Maguire to talk a little football off the top (she's a Bills fan) and what are the optics and election prospects of a party ramming ICE agents with cars and storming church services? And Stigall lays out the evolution of the left's tactics which have increased in intensity over the years in stages which he lays out today.

The Myth of Renee Good

Friday, January 16, 2026

Stigall's friend Jack Cashill dives deep into the background of the woman killed after attempting to run over an ICE officer. Her background is checkered, and not at all what you've heard. And the playbook to make her a martyr of the American left is one you've seen and heard before but you might have forgotten. Today's show will stoke your memory. Why are beef prices so high? Whole milk is back in fashion. MAHA is on the move and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins joins the show to discuss these things and much more. President Trump is pushing affordability on multiple fronts, but it's going to take Congress to act. Will they? And our West Coast correspondent West Coast Willie Nelson takes to the streets of Huntington Beach, California to speak to all white, left-wing protesters angry with ICE.

ICE Isn't The Villain

Thursday, January 15, 2026

Try as they might - and they're giving it all they've got - the legacy media and American left want desperately to make you pay more attention to their made up tales of woe regarding federal law enforcement defending themselves from protestors and criminals than the billions of tax dollars being stolen from under our noses. These thieves are trying to distract from the real story and Stigall's having none of it. US Senator Marsha Blackburn on her introduction of the Fraud Accountability Act and the Federal Reserve cost overruns. And are we close to some kind of military action with Iran? President Trump seems to have calmed it down for now, but airspace over the country is still clear and Iran's leadership is anything but. John Hayward brings his brilliance to the table and discusses the future with Venezuela and Greenland.

Democrats Need A "Good" Distraction

Wednesday, January 14, 2026

And they think they have it in the story of Renee Good. But Stigall has a stack of stories today - including an internal warning for democrats from the "Third Way" pollsters who say - yet again - attacking ICE is barking up the wrong tree. Meanwhile, the rampant fraud in Minnesota is the real story and here to sound the alarm is the Majority Whip and MN-6 Rep, Tom Emmer who explains what's happening in his home state now that President Trump, the Treasury, and ICE are all camped out in his back yard. One of the more ridiculous moments in American history will no doubt be noted yesterday as the Supreme Court presented to entertain gender as something we can make up as we go. Not surprisingly, Justice What Is A Woman came to the table with her Orwellian language nonsense Stigall says we must fight with our last breath. And President Trump says he wants to cap credit card interest rates. Good idea? Can he also make housing prices fall without hurting current home owners? Tricky. Heritage economist E.J. Antoni takes a stab at threading that needle.

The Art Of Leverage

Tuesday, January 13, 2026

The left will never understand it and as for many traditional Republicans - they don't seem to have a taste for it. They call it "bullying," or ugly. President Trump understands leverage better than any president in modern American history and he's wielding it. From Venezuela, to Greenland and Iran to Cuba - Stigall explains why understanding Trump's endgame is the key to understanding what many are hyperventilating over now. Also, don't look now but gas prices have fallen for the seventh straight week. Mortgage rates have fallen below 6%. The DOJ is coming at Fed Chair Jerome Powell regarding cost overruns at the Federal Reserve building in D.C. - is this a legit legal concern or a policy fight turned personal? Steve Moore joins to give his perspective on it all. Plus Trump political advisor Tim Murtaugh on the House races in 2026 including Gavin Newsome's future in California and Carrie Sevarino from the Judicial Network breaks down key cases before SCOTUS including men in women's sports which gets underway today.

The Palisades Fire: One Year Later

Monday, January 12, 2026

Stigall spoke with Salem News Channel correspondent Wille Nelson as he attended a surprisingly pro-MAGA crowd gathered to call attention to the devastation that swallowed Southern California one year ago last week.
Not much has been accomplished since then. Hear directly from some of the protestors. As you might know, our friend and sponsor Dr. Ashley Lucas has her own health and nutrition show. Stigall gets her reaction to the new MAHA food pyramid turned upside down last week and why are we hearing so much more about allergies and illness linked to food? Plus, it’s one of those stories that was right there to be told and James Bradley decided he’d be the one to tell it. The author of the best selling books “Fly Boys” and "Flags of Our Fathers” tells the story of those men memorialized forever in the iconic photo who raised the American Flag on Iwo Jima. His latest book is “Precious Freedom."

VP Vance Nukes The Press

Friday, January 9, 2026

Stigall's theme of kamikaze leftists unfolded upfront of a national audience yesterday as VP Vance was sent out to the press corps to discuss the ICE involved shooting in Minneapolis. Vance brilliantly lays out the history of the woman who lost her life as well as flawlessly defines the work being done by federal law enforcement to protect national laws and sovereignty. But also, Vance - along with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent went out as a united front to keep the pressure and focus on what matters most - the fraud and abuse of taxpayers in places like Minneapolis. It's the story Democrats desperately want to get away from and the White House won't let them. Plus, did President Trump just flirt with action in Mexico? His new aggressive moves on mortgages and student loans. And don't look now, but the experts are "shocked" at the growth of the economy. Stigall's not. What's been accomplished in a year is spectacular and it's all laid out in today's episode.

The Kamikaze Left

Thursday, January 8, 2026

Much of your legacy media is discussing the events of the last day in Minnesota. But not the story out of Minnesota they should be telling. They're talking about an activist killed in her car by an ICE agent. What they hope to not want to discuss is 24 hours prior their state's governor dropped out of politics over a huge, multi-billion dollar taxpayer money theft by illegal aliens and foreign governments. Stigall ties the stories together to give you what he calls "the kamikaze liberal." And it's not just money fraud, it's voter fraud, too. Scott Pressler from Early Vote Action is encouraging everyone to dial up their senator and demand action on the SAVE act. Dr. Micael Schwarz stops by to react to the vastly scaled down version of the child vax schedule for kids courtesy of RFK Jr. And from Venezuela, to Russia, and from China to Greenland - Dr. Sebastian Gorka returns to the show to explain why President Trump's foreign policy is not simply fast, but visionary and unapologetic.

The Don-roe Doctrine

Wednesday, January 7, 2026

If you're not familiar with the Monroe Doctrine, Stigall gives a brief history lesson then explains why President Trump's "Don-roe Doctrine" is critically important for the new era in an increasingly shrinking world in a race for supremacy. Daniel Turner from Power the Future on why 30-50 billion barrels of oil from Venezuela and access to pumping more out of their ground using American companies is critical. And all that talk about buying or invading Greenland? It actually has a very serious purpose - one few understand or discuss but one we must deal with now. The fraud in Minnesota is breathtaking, and Josh Hammer is here to discuss it plus the legality of arresting Maduro and tryin him in a New York court while France jails critics of the the Prime Minister's wife. Plus - Trump's not lost a bit of his support, a new ridiculous McDonalds lawsuit, Hilton Hotels in the crosshairs of DHS, U-haul tells us the states people are fleeing and moving to, and for an economy said to be soft - people sure are shopping!

Is Iran The Next To Fall?

Tuesday, January 6, 2026

Don't look now but the people of Iran may well be the next country's population to see a dictator deposed. Stigall welcomes Alireza Jafarzadeh of the National Council of Resistance of Iran and author of "The Iran Threat." Today is also what Julie Kelly calls "Fed-surrection" day. Jack Smith testified last week and we're not hearing a lot. Julie is all over it. There's a big primary battle in Texas for Senate and Wesley Hunt who represents the 38th District in the House wants that seat in the Senate. He and Stigall discuss the military strategy of last weekend in Venezuela and what he sees Congress accomplishing in 2026. Plus Steve Moore on why Venezuela and its economy is an entirely different structure than discussions of Iraq or Afghanistan and why so many other countries seem to be turning around their economic fortunes.

The FAFO Show

Monday, January 5, 2026

Wow! That's all Stigall can say about the surgical strike in Venezuela over the weekend. Social media followers and Harrumphers got to hear a bit of his thoughts over the weekend, but today he dives deep with a fantastic slate of guests to unpack the specifics from a military and diplomatic perspective. And yes, the politics of it, too. Brietbart's National Security Editor John Hayward and former Trump Deputy National Security Advisor Victoria Coates explain the why and the what's next for not only Venezuela - but the larger global stage including Iran that's looking precarious at best. Monday's with Maguire returns with the politics of the move that has some Republicans claiming this is not an America First move. And former veteran now Senator Dave McCormick experienced first hand his own participation in an operation similar to this one back in 1989. Suffice it to say, the politics of the day were far different and the Democrats were, too. More on the Minnesota scandal that has Tim Walz bowing out of the governor's race and Stigall opens up on some time around the house during vacation and what is specifically special about today.
