📰 1. Biden and the Autopen Controversy The discussion opens with a deep dive into a legal and political controversy involving President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to sign off on mass pardons. The Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) had previously ruled that autopen use is valid only if the president personally makes the decision. The New York Times reported that Biden did not individually approve each pardon, raising questions about the validity of those pardons. The hosts argue that this could lead to legal challenges and potentially invalidate some pardons, especially if there’s no paper trail of Biden’s direct involvement. 🌊 2. Personal Story: Guadalupe River Flood Tragedy A first-person narrative recounts a devastating flood along the Guadalupe River in Texas. The story, written by Aaron Parsley, describes a family’s harrowing experience as their river house was swept away. The emotional account includes the death of a young child (Clay) and the survival of his sister (Rosemary) and other family members. It’s a powerful, emotional interlude that highlights the human cost of natural disasters and the resilience of survivors. 📺 3. Stephen Colbert and the Fall of Late Night Comedy The hosts discuss the cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”, framing it as a cultural shift. Colbert is criticized for being partisan, elitist, and out of touch with much of America. The commentary contrasts Colbert with other late-night hosts like Jimmy Fallon, who is portrayed more favorably. There’s also a mocking segment about Colbert’s pro-vaccine musical skits, which the hosts deride as sanctimonious and unfunny. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🖊️ 1. Investigation into the Use of the Presidential Autopen During Joe Biden’s Presidency The White House Counsel's Office has reportedly opened an investigation into the alleged misuse of the autopen to sign executive orders, pardons, and other official documents during Joe Biden’s presidency. The claim is that Biden may not have been cognitively fit to make presidential decisions and that unelected staffers may have used the autopen without his knowledge. Key figures mentioned: Caroline Levitt, Trump’s Press Secretary, who called Biden the “most incompetent and senile president.” Anthony Bernal, former chief of staff to the First Lady, and Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Biden’s physician, both of whom invoked the Fifth Amendment during congressional depositions. James Comer, Chair of the House Oversight Committee, leading the investigation. The narrative suggests a cover-up and raises questions about presidential authority and transparency. 🏥 2. Medicaid Benefits and Illegal Immigration in New York Texas Representative Wesley Hunt is demanding data from New York Governor Kathy Hochul on how many undocumented immigrants are receiving Medicaid benefits. Hunt argues that Section 1115 waivers may be used to circumvent federal restrictions, allowing undocumented immigrants to access benefits. The governor’s office responded by criticizing Hunt’s stance but did not directly answer the question about the number of undocumented recipients. Hunt cites a Fiscal Policy Institute study estimating 670,000 undocumented immigrants in New York, about 5% of the population. The commentary suggests that Democratic leadership is prioritizing benefits for undocumented immigrants over American citizens and calls for greater transparency.

1. Allegations Regarding President Joe Biden’s Use of the Autopen for Pardons The podcast claims that President Biden may not have been fully aware of what he was signing via autopen during his final days in office. It references a New York Times article and a forthcoming book titled Original Sin. Allegations include: Biden’s inner circle blocked him from campaign prep and briefings. Chief of Staff Jeff Zients approved the use of the autopen for multiple preemptive pardons, including for Anthony Fauci and General Mark Milley. The legitimacy of these pardons is questioned, with Donald Trump calling it a major scandal. The narrative suggests that Biden’s aides, not the President himself, made final decisions on pardons. 2. Proposed Legislation to Designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization Senator Ted Cruz is introducing the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025. The bill proposes a bottom-up approach to designation, differing from past efforts that failed due to the non-violent status of some Brotherhood branches. It urges Secretary of State Marco Rubio to: Catalog global branches of the Muslim Brotherhood. Designate those meeting terrorism criteria. The bill outlines three pathways for designation: Congressional action under the 1987 Anti-Terrorism Act. State Department designation. Designation as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist group. The legislation is supported by GOP senators and aligns with actions taken by countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Cruz compares this effort to Trump’s 2017 designation of Iran’s IRGC as a terrorist group. The document includes Cruz’s direct statements, emphasizing the Brotherhood’s global reach, violent ideology, and alleged ties to groups like Hamas. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Designation of the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization Senator Cruz discusses his long-standing effort to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist group. He outlines the organization's history, global reach, and alleged ties to terrorism. The conversation critiques past U.S. administrations, particularly the Obama and Biden administrations, for their handling of the Brotherhood. Cruz introduces a “modernized” version of his bill using a “bottom-up” approach to target specific violent branches first. IRS Ruling on Churches and Political Endorsements The IRS has agreed that churches and pastors can endorse political candidates without risking their tax-exempt status. This is framed as a major shift from the Johnson Amendment, which previously discouraged political speech from the pulpit. The discussion includes a personal anecdote from Cruz about defending pastors in Houston who were subpoenaed for their sermons. Biden Autopen Scandal The New York Times reported that President Biden used an autopen to sign pardons without personally reviewing each case. Cruz argues that this could render many of those pardons legally invalid under DOJ guidelines. The conversation speculates on the legal and political implications, including potential challenges to the pardons. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Allegations Regarding President Joe Biden's Health and Fitness for Office The first story centers on claims of a cover-up concerning President Biden's mental and physical health. It highlights a House Oversight Committee investigation, led by Representative James Comer, into whether Biden was mentally fit to serve. A key figure in the investigation is Dr. Kevin O'Connor, Biden’s former White House physician, who invoked the Fifth Amendment during questioning. Questions posed to Dr. O'Connor included whether he was ever told to lie about Biden’s health or believed Biden was unfit for office. He declined to answer both. The use of the White House autopen (a device used to sign documents) is cited as suspicious, with claims that Biden may not have been aware of what was being signed. The narrative suggests this could invalidate certain executive actions if Biden was incapacitated. 2. Threats Against Donald Trump and National Security Concerns The second story shifts to alleged Iranian threats against former President Donald Trump and other American figures. It references fatwas (Islamic legal rulings) calling for violence, reportedly issued by Iranian clerics. The organization United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) is calling for sanctions against individuals and entities involved. There are concerns about Iranian sleeper cells potentially operating within the U.S., possibly entering through asylum loopholes or border security gaps. The commentary warns of the national security risks posed by these individuals, including the potential for future terrorist attacks. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Trump Accounts New private investment accounts for every newborn, seeded with $1,000. Encourages long-term savings and financial literacy. Supported by major CEOs like Michael Dell, who pledged employer contributions. School Choice Expanded 529 savings plans (up to $20,000/year). Federal tax credit (up to $1,700) for donations to scholarship-granting organizations. Aimed at increasing access to quality education, especially in underperforming school districts.
