Barbara has the story behind the arrest. Susan has the Detroit numbers nobody in the media will touch. Plus her journey from RFK to Trump — and a straight answer to a 69-year-old who asked why he should still believe.
Replay now available. Join us LIVE next Thursday. Susan is on the ground in Michigan. Tuesday's returns from Wisconsin and Minnesota tell one story — and overnight, Hellfire missiles enforced the blockade.
Barbara Boyd traces Mamdani, El-Sayed, and Obama to a single London–Soros network stoking religious conflict over Gaza, Iran, and Islam to take down Trump and the midterms — and shows how Trump is answering with the Board of Peace and a nuclear-powered productive economy.
Why You Can't Understand Trump Without This One President, (It’s not Jackson)
Uncover McKinley's forgotten legacy: champion of tariffs, labor, and American ideals. He challenged British dominance, defended civil rights, and upheld Revolutionary principles.

Due largely to President Donald Trump's praise for McKinley's tariff policy, as well as Trump's restoring McKinley's name to our nation's highest peak, he is once again being discussed.
But how much does the average American, or the average Republican elected official, know about McKinley?
Probably not very much.
It is as if he was erased from our nation's collective memory on the day he was assassinated by a British agent.
Yet he is a total mystery to most Americans.
Yes, McKinley was the great champion of Protective Tariffs.
His 1890 McKinley Tariff was the highest in the nation's history, and he accomplished the creation of a productive economic powerhouse in America, the likes of which had never been seen before.
But he was more than just "Mr. Tariff." Much more.
From 1897 to 1901, President William McKinley waged a relentless war to break the financial and geopolitical power of the British Empire and to assert the Principles of the American Revolution as the basis for relations in world affairs.
He challenged the imperial ambitions of Britain, France and Spain.
And through his policy of "reciprocity" he fought to secure a world of sovereign nations, working together to secure a future of peace and economic prosperity. McKinley's actions threatened to end British imperial domination, and for this he was assassinated.
McKinley took on Wall Street.
He championed the interests of Labor and working families.
He was the last great defender of civil rights for the freed slaves to occupy the White House until the 1960s.
And always—always—he stood unflinchingly for the Principles of the American Republic.
In a speech in 1891, he declared:
"PRINCIPLES MUST ALWAYS LEAD; they are the advance guard of right thought and action. . . . The Declaration of Independence, which sounded the voice of liberty to all mankind, was in advance of the thought of the great body of the people. . . . It took a hundred years of National life and National thought and earnest agitation, and at last wasting war, to place this Government where the Declaration of Independence anchored it. . . ."
McKinley was a hero, one of our greatest Presidents, perhaps the greatest after Washington and Lincoln.
This Saturday, February 8th, we will explore his life, his career and his beliefs.
