Is Trump A Fascist?

Well, we predicted it, everyone. Back in July, I described what the Kamala Harris strategy would be. I wrote that they will try to get people excited about Kamala for about 5 min, and when that does work, they will go back to calling Trump a fascist. And guess what? Here we are. Everyone from Kamala Harris to Keith Olbermann to even Larry Sabato at UVA Center for Politics has been comparing Trump to Hitler and calling him a fascist…so we decided to ask a question…when we look at fascism as an ideology, does one candidate align with their actual objectives? So that is what we will do today. We will put away the political rhetoric and actually look at fascist policies straight from the fascists themselves and ask the question…does either candidate for president actually align with “fascist policies?”---Sponsored by: Good Ranchers Good Ranchers offers 100% American meat, supporting local ranchers and ensuring quality with no antibiotics.

Hard Truths With Congressman Mike Waltz

Whenever I have been asked what best prepared me for serving in elected office, I usually quip that before I got into politics, I served in a unit that specialized in unconventional warfare and counter-insurgency, and I'm amazed at how well that prepared me for domestic politics. It's, of course, half tongue in cheek, but there is no question that my time as a Green Beret taught me a lot about leadership. Mike Waltz is the first Green Beret elected to Congress, and he has served with distinction both in the military and as an elected official. He wrote a book, "Hard Truths: Think and Lead Like a Green Beret," where he explained what is unique and compelling about the Special Forces style of leadership.Get Mike's book here: https://a.co/d/8q8G20a---Sponsored by: True ClassicTrue Classic Tees have cracked the code on men's fashion.

The Speech That Almost Got Banned

Nick has been attending the Homesteaders of America Conference for three years. It has been going on for eight years and is always very well attended by thousands of people from all over the country and even from other countries. Amy Fewell and her team do a great job. This year, Amy called Nick and told him that the insurance company had denied their policy and mentioned Nick by name as the reason. He told Amy that the event was too important and that, if needed, she should take him off the list of speakers. Amy flat-out refused.
