The Battle Is No Longer Political. It's Spiritual.
Stigall was invited to Washington to cover President Trump's speech on religious liberty - specifically in education - today at the Museum of the Bible. Full update on that tomorrow. On today's podcast...He is Charlie Kirk's hand-picked leader of TPUSA Faith - Pastor Lucas Miles is back with a significant new book every Christian needs to read if you want a good understanding of the national conversation around politics and how moral and spiritual decline creep in to not just government but our houses of worship if we're not watchful. Miles and Stigall focus on subjects like the growth of MAHA and why - if not careful - it can become its own false god. Artificial Intelligence, the "transing" of school children, pop culture issues like Cracker Barrel and American Eagle's Sydney Sweeny ads. Start your week with a very smart conversation! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

RFK Jr. From The Top Rope!
It's very clear who's on the side of making Americans healthy and safe again and who's not. Stigall lays out very clearly why this presidential administration is focused on saving lives and serving justice on behalf of victims. The hissing and screeching on display during yesterday's hearings was no match for the strength of RFK Jr.s message. A packed show with reaction from Dr. Robert Malone - the inventor of the mRNA delivery and vax technology, Dr. Michael Schwartz - author of "Vaccine Fiction," and the broader cultural implications of what's really ailing our country - mental health and our lack of willingness to discuss it. -📢 LIKE, COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE for more real conservative insights you won’t hear from the mainstream media!-For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who's Trying To Make Things Better?
Sincere question. At a minimum - who in government is actively trying to improve the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness for Americans? It would be impossible to say Democrats. Whether they're fighting President Trump on deporting illegal alien criminals, developing more energy sources, reducing crime in our major cities, or challenging Big Food and Pharma to make Americans healthy again - Democrats simply can't abide Trump success. Meanwhile, the President assures everyone yesterday he's alive and well as he moves the Space Force, blows Venezuelan drug cartels out of the water (literally), and pledges to fight activist judges on his tariffs to save the country economically. We get into the law surrounding tariffs and other matters with Mark Weaver. John Hayward from Bretibart discusses the eyebrow raising meeting between Inda, China, and Russia. And meet a candidate and former judge taking on a Soros-backed DA in Philadelphia. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My Kind of Town - Chicago Was
Mayors and governors of blue cities and states like Chicago, Illinois spend the weekend trying to gaslight voters and the five viewers of shows like Face the Nation that Trump trying to curtail the violence in their backyard is really a plot for something more sinister. But are voters buying it? Meanwhile, Stigall says Republicans need to begin to embrace gerrymandering as a political tool, because it is and Democrats have done it with great success for a very long time. Senior management of the CDC is on the warpath agains RFK Jr. and President Trump over their dismissals and resignations. The Trump administration is taking an interesting new line of attack to the CDC as the President remains open to criticism of one of the things he felt was his signature success in his first term. Steve Moore joins us for his weekly stop and he and Stigall don't see eye to eye on tariffs and inflation today. You'll hear the friendly debate. And could New York lose its status as the economic capital of the country? One Florida mayor joins the show to say yes, and he believes the new financial capital could be his town. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Democrats Are Up Against It
It's almost comical were it not so deadly serious. Whether its defending the murderer in Minneapolis and his preferred use of pronouns or lashing out that President Trump wants to help defend cities, and clean up our monuments and buildings in places like DC and New York - Democrats are simply on the wrong side of an 80-20 issue. Americans want to feel safe and feel pride in their cities. Plus, Stigall gets a sincere email that causes him to explore an unplanned topic on the show related to prayer as he and Josh Mann - managing editor at ReadLion.com take it head on while discussing the latest on the horrors of Catholic school shooting this week. And Pennsylvania Senator Dave McCormick on more reinvestment in our nation's ports and energy. And why he feels the economy is on the verge of a big boom. It's also open line Friday with input from across the country! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't Doubt We're In A Spiritual Battle
Another mentally ill man whose background of "transgenderism" led to the murder of two children and injuring 17 more attending a morning Mass. Stigall wants to finally have an honest conversation about this instead of the incipit cable news "it's the guns" distraction. Retired NYPD detective Rob O"Donnell explains how law enforcement unpack a case like this and what we can do to help ward off tragedies like this. Plus, Minnesota resident Michele Tafoya on what in the world has her state in the grips of some of the worst, most destructive Democrats in the country.
