The Adult in the Room

Dr. Roy Spencer has an extensive scientific pedigree. He's a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama - Huntsville, and the US Science Team leader for the AMSR-E aboard NASA's Aqua satellite. He's been lauded by the American Meteorological Society for his groundbreaking work monitoring Earth's temperature fluctuations. So when he expresses a scientifically-backed hypothesis that climate change is part of a naturally-occurring cycle and that human impact is small and possibly negligible, it carries a great deal of weight. Instead, he's been mocked and challenged by untrained activists, and even had his own job explained to him by a reporter on national television. Today, he joins the program to discuss his work, as well as his concerns about activism- and ideology-driven government weighing down scientific research.

The federal case against Hunter Biden made its way to Capitol Hill last week with hearings investigating his drug & gun charges. But for former White House Stenographer Mike McCormick, the bigger story continues to be the Biden family's connections to Burisma, the energy firm on whose board Hunter Biden sat. McCormick tells the story on this episode of a flight to Kiev that he himself was part of, and discusses the connections between the Bidens, the Klitschko Brothers, Burisma, and corruption that he believes still goes to the highest level of American government.

This week marks 51 years since the trial began for the five men caught burglarizing the DNC offices at the Watergate Hotel. John O'Connor has been researching the scandal for decades, publishing two books on the subject and even building a relationship with whistleblower Mark Felt, known colloquially as "Deep Throat." On this special episode, he returns to the program to talk even more in-depth on the origins of the scandal, how Nixon's downfall was initiated by rogue elements within multiple levels of government, and how current scandals within the White House relate to this embarrassing and somewhat frightening chapter in American politics. ***** TOP STORIES California Now Outlaws Police From Asking The Most Uncomfortable Question Ever Pro-Hamas Nazis Vow to Sack Seattle's Space Needle on New Year's Eve 'Missing' Melania Stories Confirm Pundit's Advice: Former First Lady Is Key to Trump Win in 2024 Here's Why the Harvard President's Resignation Letter Set Off the Plagiarism Klaxons Again Sean Hannity Has Had Enough: 'Goodbye, I Am Done' A Jewish Family Is Attacked at 'American Dream Mall' in N.J., and We've Got One Big Question AOC Gives Away the Game on America's Southern Border Crisis West Coast, Messed Coast™ — 'Save Democracy' Crowd Sues to Stop Oregon Voters From Choosing Trump Government Regulators Are Coming for the Amish Farmer Again ***** MORE INFO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VictoriaTaft.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Victoria Taft @ PJ Media

Spycraft isn't usually what you see in the movies or read about in adventure books. It's gritty, it's ugly, and in modern times often requires just as much history & technology expertise as marksmanship. Intelligence operators are some of the most highly-skilled, dangerous people on the planet. So, when their skills are misused by the political elite against US citizens solely for the gain of political capital, the consequences can ruin careers, lives, and fragile peace. Charles "Sam" Faddis is a former CIA operative who led the first incursion into Iraq in the run-up to the 2003 invasion of that country, and headed the WMD unit of the agency's Counter-Terrorism Center. He also served as an officer of the US Army's Judge Advocate General Corps, so he cares a great deal about preserving justice in a world where due process seems to have given way to backroom dealings within agencies that have no Constitutional mandate, and should by all rights be neutral, owing allegiance to the nation itself, not to any one member of the US government. Faddis chats with Victoria on this episode about his thoughts on members of government using American investigatory & intelligence agencies as a political cudgel, and what can be done to heal the rot that continues to grow within these extraconstitutional bureaus. ***** TOP STORIES 'The Boys in the Boat' Movie Debuts Christmas Day and It's the Story America Needs Right Now West Coast, Messed Coast™ The Last Vestige of the 'Summer of Love' Is Flattened ***** MORE INFO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VictoriaTaft.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Victoria Taft @ PJ Media

Xi Van Fleet grew up with China's so-called "Cultural Revolution" exploding around her, transforming her homeland into an authoritarian state where the entire populace was indoctrinated into the belief that poverty was purity, that oppression was freedom, and that liberty was poisonous. After the death of Mao Zedong, she emigrated to the US and embraced the true freedom our country presents. Christmas is a time for generosity, prosperity, and celebration of faith and family, and so on this Christmas Eve edition of The Adult in the Room, Xi joins the program to discuss the dangerous path she believes America's political class are leading our country down, which is directly oppositional to those same core ideals, a topic she tackles in even greater detail in her new book Mao's America: A Survivor's Warning. ***** TOP STORIES Elon Musk Moves to #1 on Joe Biden's Enemies List Still Don't Think This Is a Battle of Good and Evil, Eh?
