A looming government shutdown now centers on defunding DHS, and Joe Pags calls out the left for fanning outrage while law enforcement continues doing its job. Pags also breaks down President Trump’s comments with Will Cain following the Minneapolis chaos and why the administration isn’t backing down. Then the data the legacy media doesn’t want you to hear: as illegal immigration drops, so do births tied to illegal families, which the left is desperately spinning as an “economic problem,” even though it’s a direct result of enforcing the law—exactly what voters demanded. The hour explodes with a no-holds-barred interview with Rep. Brandon Gill, who lays out why Democrats are willing to shut down the government rather than fund DHS, exposes what surfaced in the Jack Smith hearing, and calls out the political targeting of elected officials. Sharp, interesting, and one of the most intense and revealing conversations you’ll hear this week. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Joe Pags lights it up as he takes on Michelle Obama for comments that ignite racial tension and leave Americans asking, what is she really saying? Then the political world gets even stranger — a key Trump impeachment figure jumps into a Senate race, while Dr. Oz uncovers jaw-dropping medical fraud in California that’s costing taxpayers big. The hour explodes when Senator Rick Scott joins Pags for a blunt, behind-the-scenes conversation on what Republicans are actually doing to fix healthcare, why Democrats are targeting DHS, ICE, and Border Patrol, and what that means for the safety of the country. Scott doesn’t dodge the tough questions — should Kristi Noem resign? Should impeachment be on the table? He answers it all. Fast-moving, fiery, and packed with revelations you won’t hear anywhere else. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

After a deadly weekend in Minneapolis, Joe Pags calls out the sudden role reversal—liberals are now sounding pro-2A, and Pags explains exactly why.

He breaks down what actually happened, where lines were crossed, and how Americans can protect their rights without chaos. Then the big question: is Tim Walz finally open to working with federal law enforcement, or is this just another temporary pivot?

Joe Pags cuts through the chaos around the Minneapolis immigration enforcement story with the facts you aren’t hearing elsewhere. Karoline Leavitt says federal investigators are pursuing the Alex Pretti shooting and that Homeland Security and the FBI are reviewing the case, while insisting that no one wants to see civilians die and calling for cooperation between federal and local law enforcement. At the same time, reports say Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino and some agents are being pulled out of Minneapolis, signaling a shift in the federal approach amid mounting backlash over aggressive enforcement and conflicting on-the-ground accounts. Then Pags brings on Mehek Cooke, an immigration attorney with deep expertise in deportation law and federal authority. She breaks down the due process rights for illegal aliens, what the Insurrection Act actually says, whether events in Minneapolis could meet the legal threshold for invoking it, and why it hasn’t been used yet. Cooke gives listeners a legal roadmap through the controversy you haven’t heard before — clarifying the law vs. the headlines in one electrifying conversation. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Russia–Ukraine war has now crossed one million casualties, and Joe Pags asks the question no one else will: why is this still happening and what’s the actual endgame? With Volodymyr Zelenskyy claiming a U.S. security agreement is “100% ready” to be signed, Pags breaks down what that really means for America, Ukraine, and global stability—and whether this war can realistically be resolved. Then, truth gets stranger than fiction as the National Guard is caught handing out coffee and donuts to protesters—yes, really—leaving Pags stunned at how upside-down things have become. Finally, Kay Hill joins the show to tackle Europe’s bold claim that it no longer needs the United States. Can Britain and the EU actually survive without American power, money, and security?

Joe Pags is red-hot this Free Speech Friday, unloading a blistering call-out of local San Antonio officials and others pushing false narratives. Then he dismantles one of the most misleading claims of the week—the left’s lie about ICE, falsely accusing agents of detaining a 5-year-old child. Pags lays out the actual facts the media refuses to tell you: an illegal immigrant father abandoned his child, and ICE was blamed anyway. Why won’t the left talk about the truth? Pags rips the media for spreading misinformation, calls out the hypocrisy, and shuts down the rhetoric with facts. A must-hear, full-throttle hour. Learn more about your ad choices.

President Donald Trump backs Anna Paulina Luna as she stands firm demanding action on the SAVE Act—and Joe Pags asks the question everyone’s asking: why hasn’t Trump endorsed anyone yet in the Texas GOP Senate race?
