The Tony Kinnett Cast

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris learn the consequences of a failed coup. When you shiv your boss in the back only half-way, leaving him a vegetable in the Oval Office, but in the office all the same, you run the risk of his anger and bitterness at betrayal coming back to haunt you. Not only is the nation learning about the cost of the Oval Office coup, but of a similar power struggle between hyper-progressives, far-left activists against Israel, and the more moderate, corporate Democrats of old. This cost of picking Minnesota governor and far-leftist Tim Walz over the more moderate Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro, may be just as high as the Oval Office coup. We sit down with Mandy Gunasekara, former chief of staff for the Environmental Protection Agency, to discuss a bevy of issues, including pollution policy, climate change, Bill Nye, and midwestern rivers. Her new book is an instant classic you don’t want to miss! Finally, we answer a few of your questions in “Mail Time,” both the serious and unserious.

Live from Wisconsin with special co-host Dr. Matt Davis of Maranatha Baptist University: The biggest battle on the national stage is not between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, but appears to be between Harris and the current president, Joe Biden. On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast” live from the swing state of Wisconsin, Tony Kinnett and Maranatha Baptist University CEO Matt Davis bring you the breaking news from the Rust Belt “Blue Wall” the Harris/Walz campaign must maintain to make it to 270 electoral votes. Hurricane Milton continues to plaster Florida as other southeastern states struggle to recover from Hurricane Helene. Legacy media outlets have attempted to use the tragedies as a scapegoat for few bad economic numbers unconnected to these brutal storms. We dig into a special segment of “Awful Tweets” with Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on Twitter/x, and the other horrible social media posts that float around this big, beautiful internet.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch with morbid fascination as the Harris-Walz campaign flips from a basement strategy to a strut through a media tour (well, a tour of the media that sings its praises). Vice President Kamala Harris horrifies Americans on friendly interview shows as hurricane survivors attempt to prepare for a second major storm. The least the media could have done was refrain from editing her worst answers, as a very friendly “60 Minutes” did with her answer on Israel. Thank goodness we have the recordings of both cuts of the interview and we play them for you on the show. We also examine the phenomenon of “poll delay” and why it could cost both campaigns severely in the presidential elections. How long do serious regional and national events take to affect poll numbers? How can you tell? Friend of the show and assistant professor Nick Dwork of the University of Colorado stops by to analyze the plateauing of artificial intelligence and to explain where the future of the field is (fantasy-horror dystopian future not included).

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we observe the unusual strategy of the Harris-Walz campaign trying desperately to pad out the remainder of the election season with less than a month to go. Vice President Kamala Harris may be able to stick this tie game out, but only time and the prophetic pundits will tell! Hurricane Milton reaches Category 5, threatening the Southern United States and the survivors of Hurricane Helene. The Federal Emergency Management Agency comes under fire; some of it is justified, some of it is not. Former President Donald Trump’s “Return to Butler, PA” rally may have affected Pennsylvania more than originally thought. Either way, his opening statements were undoubtedly and unequivocally some of the best made by a presidential candidate in U.S. history, regardless of one’s political ideology.

North Carolina continues to suffer under the weight of the horribly run Federal Emergency Management Agency. On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we list the countless billions spent on everyone but American citizens by the very agencies constitutionally obligated to give them aid. The legacy media sits in awkward silence as allegations of Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff’s domestic abuse circulate on social media. How many times did any other political candidate or their spouse get this kind of polite ignorance, and does this kind of wink-and-nod favor any particular political party? We dig into some “Mail Time,” and answer some of the burning questions, both serious and unserious, sent in by viewers and listeners every week!

Republican governors clean up President Biden’s mess, the world still doesn’t care what the unelected wife of the president thinks, and scammers are just as annoying as ever. On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we give you the tools you need to avoid scams online, offline, and at the ballot box. Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on Twitter/X, joins us for another round of “Awful Tweets,” the segment where we take the worst social media posts from all platforms you can find and then mock them on the air. Rebecca Downs from Townhall.com stops by to deliver a few overlooked points from the vice presidential debate between Senator JD Vance of Ohio and Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, and perhaps a touch of scorn for the often anti-semitic members of Congress trying to pander to Jewish voters.

After a disastrous vice presidential debate, embarrassment on the world stage from Israel and Iran, and a crippling longshoremen’s strike, a desperate last-minute move signals that the Harris/Walz campaign has finally run out of ”vibes,” “joy,” and ideas. On this latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dig into each of these three reasons in rapid succession, with other startling evidence to outline just how deep of a hole the Biden-Harris administration is in. With these dark horses of the Harris-Walz political campaign corralled, we examine the last card up the sleeve of special counsel Jack Smith against former President Donald Trump. Will it be enough to revivify the Democrats’ electoral chances? Only time will tell.

In the run-up to Election Day, this final scheduled debate might be far more important than the vice presidential debate has been in the past. With Hurricane Helene’s destruction, foreign war escalation, labor strikes along the East Coast, economic uncertainty, and immigration chaos along the southern border, we’ve never seen a more dramatic election-year October.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we explain why the Biden/Harris administration was in trouble whether they put time into hurricane relief or Harris/Walz campaign rallies over the weekend. In what could only be described as a modern iteration of “Catch-22,” the Biden/Harris administration has left itself either a prematurely ended tenure or a dangerous crash landing. Daniel Elmore joins us from North Carolina to cover the aftermath of the worst floods some of its towns have ever seen, the heartache and fear of families desperate to find missing loved ones, and the outrage of millions over the millions sent in foreign aid instead of disaster relief and recovery. The humiliation of the United States on the global scale intensifies as Biden is left out of the loop on crucial strikes by Israel against the terror organization and Iranian proxy Hezbollah, who has so many recent leadership openings, there may not be enough terrorists’ left to apply for the positions. What does this mean for Pax Americana, and what on earth do we do about it? Finally, we look towards our five-hour coverage of the Vice Presidential Debate between Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio and Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, with special guests and hard-hitting analysis galore with the steady coverage you can’t get anywhere else!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch in mixed amusement and bemusement as Vice President Kamala Harris wins what can only be described as a veritable “BINGO” of bad presidential campaign circumstances just 38 days before the general election. War in the Middle East as the U.S. sits impotent, a struggling economy, scandals galore, rising crime, and a chaotic southern border are only a few of the messes the Biden/Harris administration preside over. While millions look to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for its electoral votes and swing state status, Gabby Hoffman from the Independent Women’s Forum stops by the cast to outline a stronger argument for the Keystone State’s importance. You might even say the argument is so powerful, it’s almost “nuclear.” With another brutal hurricane and tropical storm under our belts, we take a closer look at why the United States consistently has a better response to natural disasters than other nations. There’s far more to storm and disaster readiness than infrastructure—and every one of these factors derive from the spirit of the American people. Finally, we dig into a bit of “Mail Time” and the questions many of you have sent in this week to answer! In this tumultuous election season, we’ll try to get through as many serious (and silly) questions as possible!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we cast our lots on the key determining factor of every American presidential contest: which candidate is going to make a mistake in the final stretch that costs them the election? Who is going to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? Vice President Kamala Harris has been effectively (if not forcibly) zip tied to President Biden after comments made on The View and at the White House, despite her best efforts to distance herself throughout the campaign. Concurrently, former president Donald Trump seeks to specify his policy positions on abortion, contraceptives, and the Russo-Ukraine War. Nick Solheim of American Moment stops by to discuss Americans’ reaction to the second assassination attempt on Trump and how legacy media’s attempted “memory holing” has resulted in a truly visceral reaction from the average U.S. citizen. Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, joins us for another rousing segment of “Awful Tweets,” in which we take the worst social media posts and headlines from the week and mock them with the scorn they deserve. Finally, we examine the latest conspiracy theories surrounding New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ corruption indictment. Are these charges really the result of speaking out against migrants? If not, then where could they have come from? Prior Daily Signal reports on both Adams’ relationship to illegal immigration in New York City and foreign corruption scandals may hold a more likely explanation.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch in awe as the Harris/Walz campaign goes into “Kamalardiac” arrest. Despite unleashing forty-two different political strategies to give the Harris/Walz campaign momentum, this election still appears to be a dead heat. What do Taylor Swift, star-studded interviews, a convention spectacle, Oprah, and a sitcom dad/Midwestern governor have in common? Meanwhile, President Biden’s appearance on The View can only be described as disastrous. In a campaign where Harris has tried to distance herself from the Biden administration, the president’s comments tying Harris to the economy, border, and foreign policy decisions leave the Harris/Walz campaign in a precipitous position. We examine the reactions from Congress, the Secret Service, and former president Trump to reports of assassination plans and attempts from Iran. Who’s running security for presidential candidates and officials? What will it take for voters to take institutional gaps and failures seriously Finally, we speak to the nearest and dearest issue to all Americans’ hearts: road construction. How do we create a competent plan for keeping the roads in good order, and who’s responsible when they aren’t?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we bring the metaphorical first aid kit to the knife fight that has become this presidential election. With scarcely over a month and two weeks until that sacred American voting day, the swing states reach a fever pitch. With Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky touring the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania alongside Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro—things are anything but normal. Meanwhile, former president Donald Trump gives $100 to a mother of three in a Pennsylvania grocery store and pundits on the left scream “election interference.” When do private actions shift into electoral moves, and are there any common standards we can agree on? Bob Unanue, president of Goya Foods, stops by to talk about the release of his new book and the shift of Hispanic communities in the United States—a shift in how they’re perceived, how they vote, and how they’re trafficked. Finally, we have a heart-to-heart about political scandals and what to do (and not to do) in a skeletons-out-of-the-closet, five alarm forest fire of social media outrage.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch the battle for the swing states of the Rust Belt, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, take the Harris campaign’s attention away from the swing states of the Sun Belt, specifically Arizona and Nevada. Will the policy shift levy a massive shift in the polls—or is this more media humbug and nonsense in an election where everything is already decided? And what does Nebraska of all places have to do with it? The world stage gets more chaotic as Israel begins operations in southern Lebanon in some of the most targeted military strikes of all time. President Biden appears to completely forget where he is and who he is in the meantime, while Jill Biden steps into her Edith Wilson shoes as the nation looks on in horror. Finally, we parse a bit of breaking data on the various unions and their election endorsements and involvement. The traditional “90s labor Democrats” demographic may have one good gasp of air left before being lost to the pages of history, and what a doozy of an election to swing!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we take a closer look at the fake high of the U.S. stock market after a slight rate reduction from the Federal Reserve. At last, we scrape the bottom of the barrel in this election cycle as both candidates pull out all of the stops for the voters beginning to receive absentee and mail-in ballots. Bill Wirtz from the Consumer Choice Center joins us to talk about former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the populist energy he’s bringing not only to the Trump-Vance campaign but possibly a new presidential administration. What would his policies mean for U.S. agencies and the citizens’ lives their regulations restrict? Rebecca Downs from Townhall.com stops by to give us the down low on the U.N.’s latest condemnation and tut-tutting from anti-Western nations and radical Islamic terror groups. What would we do with the U.N. building were the United States to pull out of the organization? What constitutes a human rights violation in international law?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dive into the details on the neck-and-neck race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump as the swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, and (almost) North Carolina are hit with a tsunami of promises from the candidates. Harris goes after Hispanic voters in what might be the most unique strategy seen yet in American politics. Does a 5th accent really impress potential voters, and will the trend of Hispanic voters shifting red continue? Why are Americans so apathetic towards the U.S. Constitution, and what could drive them back to it? Lathan Watts, the vice president of public affairs for the Alliance Defending Freedom stops by to tackle a subject plaguing the minds and hearts of this battered republic’s citizens for decades. It’s time to dig out the Federalist Papers and dust off that old pocket Constitution, because we have work to do! Israeli intelligence continues to light up the pockets of Hezbollah terrorists as conspiracy theorists and foreign agents shout concerns over a “new age” of terrorism. Is every smart phone a bomb waiting to explode? What roles do foreign intelligence services have in offensive operations and what culpability do they share with their national government? Finally, we hit the entertainment industry for a few surprising updates about what Disney’s animators were reportedly told about their sequel to “Inside Out.” Are we finally out of the tunnel of forced political writing? No, but the light at the end of this cavern could at last be visible.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the complete failure of two separate interviews with Vice President Kamala Harris and what it means for both the Biden/Harris administration and the Harris/Walz campaign. Speaking of the campaign, where is the bump in polls after the debate, and what does former president Donald Trump’s second survived assassination attempt have to do with it? We stop in with Dr. Lindsey Burke, Director of the Center for Education Policy at the Heritage Foundation to chat about an overdue tool for students and parents considering college choices in an age where academics aren’t the priority at many institutions. The latest data visualization tool from Heritage makes a serious attempt to bridge the gap between data and those trying to make sense of it. Israeli intelligence shook the world today when a series of pager explosions in Lebanon showcased a serious breach of security, a worse breach of common sense, and a critical victory in Israel’s war against Iranian proxy terror networks like Hezbollah of Lebanon, the Houthis of Yemen, and Hamas of Gaza.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we deliver the quick news and analysis on the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump before we cover his remarks to the nation on X Spaces live. The corporate media’s coverage of the attempt on the former president’s life is not only as misleading and scornful as it was on the prior attempt two months ago, but could be considerably worse, given the victim-blaming coming from left-wing outlets, such as NBC News. Why are some so desperate to keep this event from being covered honestly? Rep. Jim Banks, R.-Ind., joins us to dive into the details. The polls continue to show Vice President Kamala Harris trailing in swing states following her debate with Trump. With early voting and absentee ballots starting to hit mailboxes in Pennsylvania and North Carolina, things could get interesting quickly. Finally, we examine the latest trends in immigration from the southern border to the great Midwest. Anyone up for cooked goose? And what’s the difference between a cat and a chicken on the grill?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we take another shot of caffeinated, sugary soda from the Kamala Harris-obsessed media, with the same kind of awkward, increasingly diminished returns popular with a certain president. What happens when you predict a forecast of raining cats and dogs in Ohio, only to bring the television cameras to a crisis you can’t ignore? The Post Millennial’s Andy Ngo joins us to discuss the first felony conviction of an Antifa rioter from Portland, Oregon, and its implications on national security and cultural discourse. Lawsuits in California, New Jersey, and Georgia could soon reshape how we address riot violence—and there’s no one better to discuss that than the master of riot coverage himself. We hit the brakes to discuss one of the biggest cinematic accomplishments in “mockumentary” history—and to hear from the minds behind it. Straight from the “black carpet” at the premiere of “Am I Racist?” by The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh, we bring you the best analysis and footage of the movie already selling out theaters nationwide, according to The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine what might be the worst week Vice President Kamala Harris has ever had—right before the biggest debate of her life. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wins historic legal victories, in which appeals courts in Michigan and North Carolina strike his name from the presidential ballot. Both sides of the upcoming political boxing match on ABC News are now moving to the locker rooms for their final preparation for Tuesday. The Daily Caller’s Mary Rooke joins us to discuss her newest groundbreaking documentary, “American Squatter,” a masterpiece examination of one of the most insidious trends sweeping the nation. How do people learn how to claim “squatters’ rights” and what can people do to stop it? Where is this most prevalent, and why are people showing police Uber Eats receipts? After a week of horrendous reporting by the legacy media, we list some of the worst sins from The Associated Press taking quotes from Senator and vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance out of context, to desperate and empty reporting from the USA Today network of newspapers. No wonder these organizations are hemorrhaging money and readers.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we break down the latest polling projections after damning statements from both the Trump/Vance and the Harris/Walz campaigns. Despite the best efforts of the Harris campaign to hide policy specifics from American voters over the last 90 days, many economic, industrial, social, and immigration policies have leaked out anyway—and boy, oh boy are they unpopular! Legendary actor, comic, and writer Rob Schneider joins The Tony Kinnett Cast to share a few key thoughts from his new book "You Can Do It!" out on September 24. In an era of governments prosecuting people for posting jokes, satire, and criticism, Schneider draws lines from revolutionary France in 1789 to the famous Falwell v. Flynt Supreme Court trial in 1984. Why are there so few in the entertainment and media industries ignoring the tens-of-thousands that lost their jobs during the government-imposed censorship period of 2020 and 2021? Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, joins us for another exciting and painful week of “Awful Tweets,” where we showcase the worst social media posts from all over the internet for both your viewing pleasure and discomfort.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we take a look at a classic fable: the tortoise and the Harris—er, I mean the hare. Does expending all of your electoral credibility in the first three weeks of a campaign leave you with more options, or less? What happens to both the election and the world stage if the bets on a powerhouse U.S. economy fracture and falter? Matt Sharp from the Alliance Defending Freedom joins us to discuss the legal battles raging between red and blue states over transgender procedures and “sanctuary” for minors. Could Gov. Tim Walz’ Minnesota policies cause a constitutional crisis? Attorney General Merrick Garland warns of Russian interference in U.S. elections while ignoring the enormous gaps in voter ID law across the country. With voting laws still in motion before early voting begins, this election could hang on a lot more than just the popularity of the candidates on the ballot. Finally, we take a second look at Family Matters—not the phenomenal 1990s sitcom, but the endorsements made by political candidates’ families. Does it matter when the shoe is on the other foot? What does it say when family endorses your direct challenger in a political race?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we cringe to our very souls as President Joe Biden is wheeled out in front of cheering crowds and shouting press. The president didn’t appear cognizant of that which was going around him, leaving only the handlers to cart him away after a few moments of dazed confusion. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre shows contempt for Americans as she responds with scorn to questions about both the president and vice president. Who will hold this administration accountable, and where do these types of conversations lead? Why does Kamala keep changing her accent? Retired U.S. Border Patrol Chief Chris Clem joins us to outline some of the largest tragedies along the U.S. southern border with Mexico and throughout the sun belt states, including the hundreds of thousands of children lost by the Department of Health and Human Services, and the role of border patrol agents in a time of changing rules, rhetoric, and priorities. Finally, we dig through a bit of historical analysis and the importance of rearing kids to love studying patterns and history. “Sesame Street” doesn’t hold a candle to “Liberty Kids.” Catch the live radio show and livestream weeknights at 7 p.m. EDT on The Daily Signal’s YouTube, X, or Facebook—and subscribe to the podcast so you never miss an episode or exclusive interview!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the most lackluster, mediocre introductory presidential interview performance in modern U.S. history and the expected effects on the presidential election. Kristan Hawkins from Students for Life stops by to chat about Florida's "Amendment 4" ballot proposal and Trump's recent change in pro-life / pro-choice rhetoric. Elise McCue from The Daily Signal drops in to outline Kamala Harris' desperate hope to save herself in the next presidential debate with former president Donald Trump: tut-tutting "mansplaining" and "manterruptions."

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we prepare for an edited, 18-minute long interview between CNN’s Dana Bash, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Minnesota governor Tim Walz. Can this give her the push her race so desperately needs in the swing state? Or is this just another log on the heap of media escapism and awkward laughter? Harris and Walz are both caught in additional lies concerning past achievements and employments. Did Harris actually work at McDonald’s to pay for college? Why does this matter, and if it’s not true, why lie about it in the first place? Do Americans really care if you worked a service industry or blue collar job before you went into politics or became wealthy? Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, joins us for another exciting installment of “Awful Tweets,” where we take the worst social media posts you send us and suffer through them live on air. It’s getting so bad out there this electoral season, we might have to do an extra segment per week focusing on just the horrible posts from legacy media journalists alone. Finally, we piece through the worst atrocities committed by gangs of illegal immigrants in the Sun Belt. Violent crimes in Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and western Texas could spell electoral trouble—but those paying the highest price are those living in fear of brutal barbarism streaming across a southern border too close for comfort.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the bizarre goal of Vice President Kamala Harris to both distance herself from her role in the Biden administration while claiming responsibility for what she considers to be its successes. How can a vice president be both the insider and the outsider? How is it going for legacy media attempting to cover that up—and what on earth is going on in Michigan and Wisconsin? We chat about political tokenism and what makes a “photo op.” After former president Donald Trump’s trip paid a visit to Arlington National Cemetery to honor the 13 fallen soldiers killed during the Biden administration’s ordered withdrawal of Afghanistan, he was hit with allegations of using the event for political gain. Who gets to decide what makes a trip necessary for a leader to make instead of a campaign convenience? State Superintendent Ryan Walters of Oklahoma joins the show to answer a few questions about the controversy of adding references to the Bible to Oklahoma’s U.S. history standards, and whether or not firing over 300 Oklahoma Department of Education staff impacted local students in any discernible way. Finally, we tackle the legacy of “mansplaining” and how it’s being used as a crutch for the left as we prepare for both the first TV interview since Harris became the Democratic nominee and the first Harris/Trump debate in early September. Why is Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota required to chaperone the female vice president? Catch the live radio show and livestream weeknights at 7 p.m. EDT on The Daily Signal’s YouTube, X, or Facebook.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dive into the worst dumpster fire of a political scandal in decades: the Mark Zuckerberg letter to Rep. Jim Jordan. After years of being told that the government wasn’t pressuring social media companies to censor different political opinions, Matt Taibbi’s “Twitter Files” and the Zuckerberg letter leave a damning footnote on this page of history. Special counsel Jack Smith defies the Supreme Court of the United States to file an emergency indictment against former president Donald Trump. We dig into the news as it breaks and examine critical details in this shocking turn of events. Vice President Kamala Harris now disavows her electric vehicle mandate in her latest policy flip-flop to appeal to voters. Is any of this true? When will Harris sit down for an interview? Will she go through with debating Trump? Mike Petrilli from the Fordham Institute joins to discuss the latest in a massive study that examines whether educational gaps between black, white, and Hispanic students are a result of racism, systemic gaps, cultural differences, or something else altogether. What do we need to fix those problems? Will another government policy prescription save the day?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the fallout from the Robert F. Kennedy endorsement of former president Donald Trump and the Democratic National Convention. Every pollster has their own take—and as usual, no one is using their common sense. With former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hi, joining Trump endorsement crew—what differences, if any, should we expect? With Joel Powell, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, announcing rate cuts just in time for the election, what accountability is there for falsified jobs numbers from the Biden administration? Does your wallet have what it takes to survive yet another round of inflation? Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who legacy media have been championing as America’s “sitcom dad” for the last month after joining Kamala Harris as her Democratic vice presidential hopeful, is embroiled in even more scandals over embellishing his record. From dogs and Army ranks to Nebraskan awards and in-vitro fertilization, he certainly picked the weirdest things to lie about. Savanna Deretich joins us from Students for Life to bring an eye-witness analysis of the gubernatorial record of Walz and what it meant for her as a Minnesota resident. She claims the soft, friendly words from Walz did little to soothe the radical policy and violent riots which plagued his administration.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we cover Robert F. Kennedy’s endorsement of Donald Trump for the presidency as he drops out of the race, somehow. Are we really going to see any difference in the polls nationally? What about the swing states? Get out the popcorn, because the media’s reaction to Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic National Convention this week is a spectacle to behold. Get ready to laugh and cry (from secondhand embarrassment) as the hard-hitting journalists in the legacy media cover the serious and important issues like the number of balloons falling from the United Stadium ceiling after Harris spoke—as opposed to the riots outside. What are the results of those riots? Did the socialists, pro-Palestinians, and far-left actors get all of their anger out of their system? Is a unified base ready to come support the wondrous JOY of Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor and stolen valor champion Tim Walz? Finally, we dig into an avalanche of questions in Mail Time straight from your phones and computers into our inbox. We take the best and worst of those questions and answer them live on air to the amusement and bemusement of our syndicated audience.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch some of the best footage from inside and outside the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Riots, protests, sermons, awkward applause, old men yelling, scrawny college students vandalizing—we’ve got it all! Have you ever experienced the joy of watching bitter old people attempt to cope with and passive aggressively complain about the youths that have supplanted them to the sound of wild applause? Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden show us the true meaning of secondhand embarrassment on the national stage—well past Biden’s bedtime. We explore the excitement and opportunity lurking beneath leading your very own Marxist/Palestinian/abortionist protest, and list a few tips on how to hijack any march and ruin any photojournalists’ pictures. Lastly, we dig into the meat of what this year’s DNC is all about: giving really pointless speeches. Do you have what it takes to ramble on for hours without saying anything at all?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dig into the boldest promises from the Harris/Walz and Trump/Vance campaigns. It’s a veritable supermarket of proposed tax cuts, governmental price control, and every social and economic fantasy in between. Bipartisan support and backlash to these promises has social media and network television spinning—we’ll break that down for you. Political experts, pundits, officials, and entertainers are enjoying a field day over the Harris/Walz housing and price control initiatives, likening Kamala’s very first policy proposals to communism. How have price control and housing allowances worked in the past? What makes a policy “communist” instead of a political right hook? International tensions continue to climb as Ukraine advances into Russia, Israel retaliates against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and Iran yells at the wind. If the President of the United States is nowhere to be found, where does the world look to leadership? Is there a bad way to win a war—and who came up with these conditions and special rules, anyway? We round out another wild week with a bit of “Mail Time.” The questions fly in fast, and we try to answer a few of your questions about the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Chicago and our planned coverage of it!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we cover the latest news from the biggest election in decades with the Harris-Walz campaign’s refusing to do multiple debates with former President Donald Trump, the economy’s shaky footing, and a new round of election data that no one is covering. With both sides blustering over a desire to debate the other, who will chicken out first? Saurabh Sharma of American Moment joins us to dig into that data, from on-the-ground registration numbers in the toughest of swing states like Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Georgia, to strategic shifts in both the Harris-Walz and Trump-Vance campaigns. If you’re looking for a cool, calm, and collected analysis that steers away from the clickbait to deliver some sure and steady footing in this election hurricane, you won’t want to miss this segment. Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, stops by for another exciting installment of “Awful Tweets,” where we take the worst social media posts and roast them until golden brown.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine a bit of the overconfidence particular media institutions and political campaigns are showing as we count down to just 83 days before the general election on Nov. 5. The polls are spun in positive lights for both campaigns, as historical data is cast aside, and the blustering from legacy media outlets begins to fracture on the honeymoon we were promised wasn’t a phase. Josh Hammer, editor-at-large at Newsweek and show host on The First, joins us to examine the stain of antisemitism on the liberal side of the aisle, consistently finding footing in Minnesota and beyond. Stephen Kent of the Consumer Choice Center takes a break from his busy campaign in Virginia to discuss a massive controversy surrounding a lawsuit against the Walt Disney Co. and what this spells long term for an organization that defined millions of childhoods. This installment of “Whatcha’ Watchin” may not be the most laid-back, but it is one of the most important segments we’ve ever aired. Send us your submissions for “Awful Tweets” or “Mail Time” here!

Victor Davis Hanson joins The Tony Kinnett Cast to highlight the critical controversies surrounding Walz the media are currently being forced to reckon with. He outlines the key factors in turning any election around in less than 100 days, and cites the key moments in the late 20th century that "everything changed in an instant." Does Harris have the ability or the discipline to stay away from cameras until stepping onto the debate stage? Will Walz make that avoidance better or worse?

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dig into the biggest mystery of the 21st century: if no one is in the White House, who is running the country? What’s at stake with a president who can’t tie his own shoes and a vice president who is busy reading scripted speeches off of teleprompters at rallies around the country? International tensions in the Middle East, Europe, and South America continue to rise as President Biden talks about haberdasheries (we think—to be fair it’s a little difficult to make out what he’s mumbling). Israel and Ukraine appear to be operating alone and on their own terms as the U.S. strategy for lasting peace in various regions changes like the whims of the liberal college students championing them. States begin to fight the Title IX regulations by the Biden administration as female athletes, mothers, and activists begin to push back. That hasn’t stopped the swarm of lawsuits from both the left and the right—all of which still remain unsettled. May Mailman from the Independent Women’s Forum stops by to explain the details and ramifications. We round out the week with a bit of “Mail Time,” and some of the best questions the show has ever received. Which polling aggregator is the most trustworthy? Why are Trump and Kamala stuck with a “ceiling” of voters? Does Kinnett wear pants for the show? You can submit questions as important as these for consideration next week here.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch with baited breath as the Trump/Vance campaign appears to reset itself against Harris/Walz due to the bevy of controversy gushing from Minnesota governor Tim Walz. Victor Davis Hanson joins the show to highlight the critical controversies surrounding Walz the media are currently being forced to reckon with. He outlines the key factors in turning any election around in less than 100 days, and cites the key moments in the late 20th century that "everything changed in an instant." Does Harris have the ability or the discipline to stay away from cameras until stepping onto the debate stage? Will Walz make that avoidance better or worse? Rebecca Downs from Townhall.com stops by to deliver the latest news on Rep. Cori Bush, D-MO, and her failure to win her reelection primary. That didn’t stop her from ranting and raving in a fairly spectacular way, though, nor did it quench the screeches from other “Squad” members either. Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, lays out the worst of this week’s social media nightmares in everyone’s favorite recurring segment, “Awful Tweets!” If you find a social media post that appears especially heinous, submit it to be dragged through the mud here.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we laugh as the media desperately try to rewrite the record of Minnesota governor and vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz.From stolen valor and Black Lives Matter to drunken driving arrests and “the joy” Walz thinks Vice President Kamala Harris has brought back to the campaign trail, there’s plenty to cover and more to concern voters. Sen. JD Vance, Walz’s GOP counterpart as vice presidential nominee, takes up the job many in the media have ignored; namely, asking questions about proposed leadership and past policies of Harris, even if the Ohio Republican has to travel to the tarmac where her plane is landing to do so. Therapist and author Pam Garfield-Jaeger joins the show to discuss her latest book, “A Practical Response to Gender Distress: Tips and Tools for Families,” and what steps parents need to take to ensure their children get the help they need if struggling with gender dysphoria or other harmful social phenomena.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we watch in half amazement, half horror as Kamala Harris puts all of her chips behind Minnesota governor Tim Walz. The self-proclaimed socialist has a wild history of far-left positions that have left many in the media scratching their heads in this crucial election. What’s his story? Is he the maverick needed to continue the Harris honeymoon, or will his history of riots, transgender policy, and radical abortionism strip away crucial swing state support? Kristan Hawkins from Students for Life stops by to tackle Walz’ abortion policy and walk us through the expected impact of a post-Roe v. Wade nation on the ballot box this November. Meanwhile, the open southern border has Americans looking over their shoulders as the FBI concedes terror threats are roaming unfettered in the United States while Iran continues to whip terror groups in the Middle East and abroad to a frenzy.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” grab the parachute cord as stock markets around the globe enter freefall. The NASDAQ falls over 1,000 points for the first time in history. President Biden is nowhere to be seen, and Vice President Harris is taking no questions. Welcome to the results of “Bidenomics,” ladies and gentlemen. Will a moderate vice presidential running mate pick calm things down for the Harris campaign—or could a radical swoop in and really make things interesting? Who’s allowed to take credit for an administration, and will Harris ever be forced to reckon with her record? If she can’t be, who will? The Daily Signal’s Elise McCue drops by to explain the deep, inner workings and complexities of “Brat” and how the cringe-laden campaign strategy of appealing to the youth vote won’t do much for this election either. Is there anything a candidate can do to bring out the youngest among us? As the Middle East inches closer to open war, Saudi Arabia issues strong warnings to its regional neighbors as rockets begin to fly in Iraq. The Biden administration may have made an extraordinarily large mistake keeping America’s southern border wide open—and the consequences may be extremely jihadist.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the colossal failure of Bidenomics and his proposed sequel to make things worse as another month of employment statistics warn of a looming recession in the middle of a presidential election year. Is an interest rate drop enough to save the stock market this fall? Pallet carpenter and creator Jake Cochrane joins us to discuss the latest trend in Do-it-Yourself crafts and why realistic projects are gaining more attention these days than the over-produced five-minute craft videos that used to be such a big deal. What’s the difference between your favorite tool and your biggest regret purchase from the hardware store? Gabriella Hoffman from the Independent Women’s Forum stops by to dig a little deeper into the connection between job numbers and what bureaucratic overreach from the federal government is doing to the energy and manufacturing sectors. You’ll be shocked to hear that cutting the energy supply from large tech and manufacturing organizations doesn’t spur growth in U.S. cities.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we don our foreign policy glasses and celebrate the freedom of two Americans formerly held as political prisoners in Moscow, while criticizing the potential release of over a dozen Russian hackers and a plea deal for two terrorists involved in the September 11, 2001, attacks. For an administration which bragged, “The adults are back in charge,” it certainly doesn’t feel like that’s the case. We take a second look at the controversy regarding the abnormal boxing match in the Olympics, in which an Algerian boxer is accused of being a biological man beating an Italian female boxer before she forfeits. Is this really a cut-and-dried case? Matt Sharp, Senior Counsel for the Alliance Defending Freedom, a law firm focusing on protecting the Constitutional rights of Americans, joins us to give an update on state legislation over the last decade and a quick checkup on the parental and women’s rights movements. Jerry Lopez, @IndySpanglish on X, stops by for another exciting installment of “Awful Tweets,” everyone’s favorite weekly segment mocking the worst social media posts on the internet—made possible by generous submissions from listeners and viewers like you!

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we brace for the impact of a major conflict in the Middle East, which may expand into Europe and the open borders of the United States. Don’t expect anyone to ask Vice President Kamala Harris about it, she’s not taking questions from reporters. Harris tries out a few new, very awkward accents on the campaign trail, and former president Donald Trump shakes things up at a journalism conference. Retired Colonel and Townhall.com senior columnist Kurt Schlichter joins us to deliver his down-the-ballot predictions, praises, and warnings—with just a bit of advice on how to start being a citizen instead of a subject. Finally, those of us not eating bugs and grass walk through the shelled remains of what was once an affordable food economy, and every factor that continues to jack up prices beyond what Americans are capable of paying without going into severe credit card debt.

We examine a few key details about the escalation of conflict in the Middle East as missiles fly from Iraq and jets are seen flying north from Israel in apparent retaliation for the Hezbollah attack which killed twelve children. Young Voices state beat fellow and friend of the show Gary Frankel stops by to debate Kinnett on the presidential election as a binary choice or an “earned vote.” Vice President Kamala Harris continues to lose relevance to independent voters with disturbing comments regarding criminal prosecution, gun confiscation via executive order, and taxpayer-funded racial reparations. Media headlines struggle to articulate Harris’ flip-flopping positions. In a bit of levity and contrast to the heavy news in this episode, we bring back the popular “Unnecessary Hot Takes” segment to remind everyone why your choice of summer ice cream matters.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we examine the media’s exceptionally awkward honeymoon with Kamala Harris, and how overplaying their hand by obscuring videos and policies from her previous campaigns and positions may cut the celebration short—with voters retaining a longer memory than many in the media find comfortable. Show producer Lou Scataglia drops by to talk Vice Presidents, the “weirdness” narrative on Senator J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, and where the hopeful Democrat vice presidential nominee fits into a race so few can define. We take two steps back to observe the weird triple standards on the Olympics, culture, and elections in Venezuela from the right and left in the U.S. and, unfortunately, the French. Finally, Kinnett lays down a heart-to-heart on why liberals calling Vance “weird” may be the most embarrassing, middle-school student council election campaign since Hillary Clinton told millennials to “Pokémon GO to the polls.” Send us your submissions for “Awful Tweets” or “Mail Time” here!

We ford a river of radical statements from the de facto Democratic nominee. From retiring carefully chosen terror terms and buddying up with a corrupt union president to plagiarizing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Kamala Harris leaves no baggage uncarried. Investigative reporter Hudson Crozier joins us to explain the federal lawsuit against a Texas doctor and whistleblower exposing child experimentation at Texas Children’s Hospital. Trump and Harris campaign from state to state and see varying levels of success. Which strategy is the winning one, and is the election in the bag for either candidate or down to the wire?
