They're Right to Be Terrorized
If your entire political future and relevance depended on a stream of taxpayer money secretly flowing to you and a propaganda campaign dominating the information voters know about you - if that's all exposed and threatened, what do you do? You hope judges who are ideologically aligned with you can gum up the works. That's what we're watching today. Stigall unpacks the dismantling of the Department of Education and the activist judges who're dong their best to stop Trump and DOGE from ending the bloat that a corrupt political system has been dining out on for decades. Ned Ryan from American Majority and author of American Leviathan shares his brilliant perspective. Brian Jodice of the American Federation of Teachers reacts to Trump's executive order yesterday. Mom's For America's Deb Kraulidis was at the White House and gives her first hand account of the day.

Understanding the Economy: A Deep Dive
Stigall has a long-form talk with Heritage Foundation economist EJ Antoni. From tariffs to tax policy - inflation to investing - is Trump's formula for economic success going to work? What's it mean in the short term for manufacturing, housing, and your wallet?

Beware of Gavin Newsome
Stigall has two special interviews today while traveling. Susan Crabtree - national political correspondent for Real Clear Politics and a California resident has authored "Fools Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All." Finally, someone who agrees with Stigall - Newsome isn't a figure conservatives should flirt with. Then Col. Kurt Schlichter says the US Military is getting its footing again. And putting on his legal hat - what should we do with all the leftist judges doing their best to stop the Trump agenda? Can they be stopped? -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigall or call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

Who Are You To Judge?
Simple question: Can a federal judge stop a duly elected president from deporting suspect terrorists or any non citizen? Stigall isn't bashful in his answer today. Josh Hammer returns - as a lawyer and author of the new book 'Israel and Civilization" - he and Stigall discuss the alarming rise of Islamism in the United States and why Sharia Law is something everyone need to understand. Meanwhile, Democrats and most of the media (but we repeat ourselves) are in full tilt defense of the worst in our midst. Trump's masterful communications squad unloads. And if you weren't around in the early 80's after Reagan's first election, our chief economist Steve Moore reminds us of the state of play economically at the time and the similarity he sees today. He used the "r" word, though. Does he think another one is coming? -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigallor call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

Houthis and the Blown Up Fish
Quite a weekend for the Trump administration as three separate terrorist factions are disrupted in two days. The Houthis in Yemen, the head of ISIS in Iraq, and Tren de Aragua gangs in the United States. Each hit hard while Trump wins a golf tournament in Palm Beach! Now that's multi-tasking. Also, is the use of an auto-signature by Joe Biden disqualifying when it comes to pardons, and other actions and laws he "signed?" Plus, can a judge stop Trump's deportation of Tren de Aragua? Mark Weaver is a former DOJ spokesman and he weighs in. Plus, is Pam Bondi doing enough, quickly enough as AG? Then, the CR is passed and signed over the weekend. Now it's on to the heavy lifting of that one, big beautiful bill full of tax cuts and possibly even the elimination of taxes on tips and Social Security. Can Republicans in the House and Senate get it done? Congressman Marlin Stutzman of Indiana's third congressional district weighs in. -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigall or call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

Look Who Blinked!
It's taken many years and many elections, but the Democrats were finally boxed into a corner of no good options and they ultimately had to give in to the GOP majority. But it doesn't come without problems for their party that's still greatly fractured in messaging and direction. The state of New York is also in a state of shock as Trump seems to be quickly changing the dynamics on the ground there with the mayor of NYC and their governor. We take a deeper dive into the situation with NY Assemblyman Jake Blumencranz. Then, the brilliant E.J. Antoni helps unpack lower inflation, but also falling markets and Trump leaning into, not backing off tariffs. What will the net effect be ultimately?-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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigall or call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

This Is A Republican Layup
There aren't many times in political history the Republicans have an easy message to share with Americans, but now is that time. Returning to common sense, limited government, lower taxes, more secure borders and increased defense spending...it's all right there. Plus, there's a CR that keeps the government fully funded until September ready to pass. But the Democrats won't do it. Stigall explains today why this is such a huge opportunity to box in Democrats once and for all as long as Republican senators don't balk. PA Senator Dave McCormick gives us his perspective and how he sees the end of the Ukraine/Russia conflict. Plus, the always "effervescent" Motor City Madman Ted Nugent has a new project he wants to let fans hear about. And the odds on front-runner for the Democrats is PA Governor Josh Shapiro. But all of the sudden, he's actually starting to get some tough questions. We'll talk with The Commonwealth Foundation's Guy Ciarocchi about Shapiro's political prospects for the future. And Stigall can't stop warning about the Gavin Newsome podcast project featuring conservatives. He's brought some new evidence to explain why you should be very wary of Newsome's little show.-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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigallor call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

We'll Have to Get Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable
Stigall continues to get angry mail from people who think he's being unkind in his discussions about the federal workforce. As he continues to try to explain, it's not about being unkind - it's about our national survival. How to we come to a place where American states are relying on Canada for their energy needs? Why are American towns hollowed out with no options for work except fast food and government jobs? It's by design. Bureaucrats and politicians have sold us up the river and now Trump is trying to force an uncomfortable national conversation on how to reverse course. It will not be a quick fix. Plus, Tony Schaffer on what's next with Ukraine and Russia now that Ukraine has agreed to a ceasefire agreement. Will Russia agree? And with the House passing the CR yesterday, it lands in the Senate where it will need 6 or 7 Democrats to keep the government from shutting down. Friday is the deadline. Can they get there? Jim Pfaff of the Conservative Cacucus breaks it down. -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigall or call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

Why Is The Economy Tanking?
Everybody take a deep breath, says Stigall. There's some very difficult conversations, decisions, and moves that will have to be made structurally in our government and in the country before we're actually on solid fiscal footing again. There should be no expectation that happens overnight. Steve Moore joins us to unpack the market sell off yesterday and his thoughts on Trump's tariff wars. Then we get two looks from both chambers of Congress on the looming "government shutdown" from Representative Scott Perry of PA-10 and Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn. They both lay out in very clear terms where things stand and where we must get to in achieving real, meaningful reductions in spending. Plus, Elon sits down for a great interview as X comes under attack as is his character. Still, he persists in finding a list of new waste and fraud Stigall shares with you today. -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigall or call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.

C'mon GOP. Don't Screw This Up.
Stigall has been warning about this for weeks now and here we are. Republicans have the chance to move beyond last year's spending fights and start anew with a new budget they control entirely and lead with DOGE efficiency cuts. But it can't happen until this CR is passed to avoid a government "shut down" this week. Today, Stigall unpacks this politics of this and why this time even the most conservative folks must hold their noses strategically to get to a bigger goal. Ultimately the question is: Do you trust Trump? Ed Morrissey of Hot Air helps paint a broader picture. Plus, another couple of pots boiling on the stove are Russia/Ukraine and Iran/Israel. Trump is trying to bring maximum pressure on Iran to dump their nuclear program while keeping Russia from stepped up bombing of Ukraine. Could we see Russia and Iran form a more strategic partnership? Gabriel Noronha of Polaris National Security breaks it down. -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/StigallShow-Global Coin, for exclusive listener offers go to https://www.shopglobalcoin.com/pages/stigallor call 1-888-560-3125.-Keep up with the Trump Administration when you subscribe to The Trump Report.
