Show 13-16 Summary: This week, it’s all about advancing freedom. We have two guests. One is Kevin Stark from Hillsdale College, talking about his book, War on the American Republic, and how the political Left has managed to seize power while convincing the Right to give up power. Plus, an inside look at prosecutors and DAs and attorneys general with Indiana’s former AG, Curtis Hill. But what brakes are there for rogue prosecutors like the Manhattan DA who indicted President Trump? If any. And a weird case of Nazism meets adoption. Right here in Oregon.

This Week – It’s a War on the American Republic
It’s not just a title for Dr. Kevin Stark’s new book, War on the American Republic: How Liberalism Became Despotism. There really is a war on the American Republic. As we say so often here on I Spy Radio, the fight for freedom is an everyday fight.
Dr. Kevin Stark from Hillsdale College joins us this week to discuss the origins of this fight. And how the Left has gone from a political movement that embraced essential freedoms like individual rights and freedom of speech to one where they will lock you up if you speak up.
Speaking of war, there’s a war within our justice system. It’s been weaponized. We welcome Curtis Hill, the former attorney general for the state of Indiana. While there, he prioritized fighting corruption. If only rooting out corruption within the justice system was a priority of the justice system.
We ask about the structure and controls within the justice system. How it operates. What kinds of controls there are. Who oversees whom, and so forth. And what kind of brakes are there in the system to deal with prosecutors like Alvin Bragg? Who make political enemies their highest priority rather than actual criminals on the streets.
Are republicans and democrats treated differently? And is the way to fix the system is for republicans to treat democrats the way they treat republicans?
And we ask his opinion on a strange case in Oregon of a woman being denied an adoption because she was Christian. Yes. It’s Nazism in Far Left Oregon.

Show 13-13 Summary: It’s about education, school choice, and voter integrity and how all of that is being undermined — but what we can do to fix it. Our guest is Marc Thielman, who has his hands in all of those pots and doing the stirring. So much of what ails Oregon right now can be fixed by better schools that teach real civics and history. To get there, the path is Real School Choice. And to get there, we need election integrity. What it really boils down to is we need education freedom in Oregon.

This Week – The Wrong Kind of Power
Oregon does not have an independent, superintendent of state schools. Thanks to John Kitzhaber and easily duped Oregon voters, that elected position was removed and absorbed under the dictator’s office. Oops. The governor’s office.
But that’s what really happened, isn’t it? More and more power consolidated under wannabe kings and queens. What is it with the Left and democrats — who claim they want democracy — grab all the power under a single person’s rule.
But can you believe that even with all that power in one person’s hands, now they want even more power. And it truly is just about control.
What’s Needed: Education Freedom in Oregon
So much of what ails Oregon right now can be fixed by better schools that teach real civics and history. (Two of the things socialists hate most.) To get there, the path is Real School Choice, which would allow parents to use the money already assigned to their child and send them to a school that works best for their child. And to get there, we need election integrity.

This week we talk to Marc Thielman who is actively involved with all three of those issues. If you remember, Marc is the former superintendent of the Alsea School District. Which, we might add, was the one and only school district standing up to the governor’s and state’s overreach during covid. Marc defied the state and gave teachers and students options. (How dare he!) He did not enforce mask mandates (what?!). And kept kids in school (the outrage!). Oh. And they had a 500% enrollment increase. And not one covid case traced back to the school.
Marc Thielman on Education, School Choice, and Election Integrity
Perhaps its because Marc Thielman and the Alsea school board defied the state — successfully — that Tina Kotek think she needs even more power over schools. This, a recommendation from Melissa Goff. Who, if you didn’t know, was the superintendent of the Greater Albany Schools District. “Former” because she was such a little tyrant and bully that she was run out of her position. But now she is Kotek’s “education adviser.”
That’s like Stalin advising Chairman Mao.
Tune in to hear Marc talk about this power grab, the school shooting at The Covenant School, the damage transgenderism is doing to people, and, of course, election integrity. We saw blatant cheating in Arizona in 2022. Just in your face cheating. But the Arizona supreme court upheld one of Kari Lake’s complaints and sent back to lower court for review.
How much cheating has to happen before the courts take notice and uphold the law? Could this finally be the foot in the door?

Show 13-10 Summary: This week, for once, the host of the I Spy Radio is doing all the talking. Normally, I Spy is all about researching our guest’s topics, asking questions, and letting them do the talking. But recently, the Salem’s Capitol City Republican Women group invited Mark Anderson to be their speaker at a luncheon. His spoke on how Republicans can recover from major defeats, like they saw in 2020 and 2022. Using lessons from history, combined with some pivotal I Spy Radio Shows to illustrate what’s happening, he describes how Republicans can win in 2024. So on today’s show, he gives it again to our radio audience.

This Week – Mark’s Speech to the CCRW Luncheon
Salem’s Capitol City Republican Women invited I Spy’s host, Mark Anderson, to give a speech on Thursday, March 9th. This week’s show, he gives it again to his entire radio audience. Note that we cut about 7-10 minutes from the speech to fit into a a broadcast radio “hour.”
After the show airs on our network of stations, we will post the full-length speech as the podcast version.
How Republicans can Win in 2024
Mark begins the speech with what the Hungarians faced in 1241 when they were invaded by the Mongols. In the wake of a devastating defeat that saw 1/4 of his countrymen killed and virtually all of Hungary’s towns and cities destroyed, King Bela IV had to face the brutal truth: that his country and its army were completely unprepared to deal with invaders like the Mongols.
But, as Mark highlights, major victories can come from major defeats. By facing the brutal facts. Using King Bela’s reforms, combined with pivotal past I Spy Radio shows to illustrate what is happening now, Mark examines how Republicans can win in 2024. And beat the Mongol Marxists destroying America.
Disinformation and Cognitive Warfare: The New Battlefield
One of the pivotal series of shows discussed in his speech was I Spy’s series of shows on disinformation. If you have not yet read Disinformation by Lt. General Ion Pacepa and Ron Rychlak, you need to. It explains so much about what we are experiencing in America today. As our own government uses tools of manipulation, cognitive warfare, launching disinformation campaigns against unsuspecting Americans. Mark explains how we know for sure that the “Russia collusion” hoax was in fact a disinformation campaign.
One last thing. When it comes to fighting disinformation, it requires influencers and the weight of reality and truth. For example, the truth and reality of the January 6th footage. Not the edited versions the January 6th tribunal was releasing The day after his speech, there was an incredible letter from democrat Dr. Naomi Wolf, apologizing for being taken in by the Left’s and the government’s propaganda. It is a long letter, but well worth the read. Because it shows that the spell of disinformation can be broken.

12-51 They’re Spying on Us | Government Immunity, Royalty, and the Rest of Us
Show Summary: The Twitter files exposing government agents spying on and censoring Americans. And, there is clear evidence of election interference. Which, given the lengths they went to in 2016 and during all of Trump’s presidency, should surprise no one. So much of government’s malfeasance comes down to one issue: government immunity. It is prohibitively hard to hold government and government officials accountable. But recently, there have been some surprising rulings by the Supreme Court on constitutional issues, especially 2nd Amendment rulings. Could we be seeing the dawn of the return to the Constitution?

This Week – Overcoming Government Immunity
The Twitter files exposed government agents spying on and censoring Americans. Many of us who have been banned, blocked, suspended, censored, and shadowbanned already figured this out.
Election interference? “Unequivocally true” (Click for full size)
But we figured it was Twitter employees gleefully banning, etc., their political opponents. Only a few of us suspected what was really happening. Which is way worse: government agents working directly with, and directing, those Twitter employees to ban, block, suspend, censor, and shadowban the government’s political enemies.
So there you have it. Government agents clearly committing First Amendment violations as they colluded with Twitter employees to interfere in the 2020 and 2022 elections.
Which, given the lengths they went to in 2016, and during all of Trump’s presidency, should surprise no one.
Nixon? Watergate anyone?
Recently, there have been some surprising rulings by the Supreme Court on constitutional issues, especially 2nd Amendment rulings. Could we be seeing the dawn of the return to the Constitution?
We talk with Jonathan Emord, one of America’s top constitutional lawyers, about what is happening and what could (and should!) happen to these government agents who abused their power. The big question is how do we get past government immunity?
Fortunately, there have been some pro-constitution rulings by the Supreme Court of late. Especially on the 2nd Amendment. Overturning New York State’s onerous restrictive gun laws, which is very encouraging for Oregonians fighting the recently passed Measure 114.
Could this be a signal the highest court in the land is finally returning to and embracing the sanctity — and sanity — of the Constitution?

Show Summary: Government must be founded on people of high moral standards. But what happens when people of low morals run it? Pretty much exactly what we see happening right now. This week, we’re talking about government accountability. In particular, how can government officials be held accountable for their actions. Or lack of actions. Does their oath of office mean anything or not? It turns out, a Supreme Court case brought by the Brunson brothers could make that happen.

Original Air Dates: December 3rd & 4th, 2022 | Guests: Loy Brunson & Joe Mobley
This Week – Government Accountability
This week, we’re looking into a court case currently at the Supreme Court, brought by a private citizen, to actually hold members of congress — and the president and vice president — accountable for failing to uphold their oath of office. While it sounds too good to be true, it has good constitutional grounds in that elected officials are to be “bound” by their oath. Not just mouth-breathe it.
Then we’re taking a look at Big Tech’s censorship — except this time it boomeranged on them. YouTube actually drove users to a competitor and, finally, Congress may take a hard look into Section 230 to revise it and shift all those “platforms” to what they really are: publishers.
This could get really interesting really fast.
Real Government Accountability: The Brunson Brothers’ Supreme Court Case
You might have heard about this. There is a case right now at the Supreme Court, docket number 22-380. It has been accepted and is awaiting its conference date where the nine justices meet to discuss which cases they’ll take on. It only needs four votes to move forward. We welcome Loy Brunson to discuss the case, which has his brother’s name on it: Raland Brunson.
At its heart, the case deals with holding government accountable for their actions. Or, in this case, their lack of action. In the wake of the 2020 election, there was a lot of accusations of voter fraud and election tampering. Including outright theft of the election.
One hundred members of Congress wanted to push the pause button. They wanted 10 days to investigate credible allegations of fraud in the 2020 election because, if true, it meant a grave and unprecedented threat to our democracy.
But the democrats won, so they weren’t interested in pesky things like the Constitution or their oath of office to defend it. Likewise, RINO republicans were more than happy to have Trump driven from office. And if it meant a little fraud or a little election theft, so be it. They too didn’t care if it meant a direct attack on our Constitution. They got what they wanted. Move on.
But threats to the Constitution demand answers. Especially from those who took an oath to support and defend it.
Now, a court case brought by the Brunson Brothers, seeks to do just that.
The Battle to Defend the Constitution
One would think defending the Constitution would be a simple and straightforward process. But the Brunsons’ battle to do that was filled with no end of hurdles and people who apparently had no interest in defending the Constitution. Including judges, courts, and federal attorneys general. Which is odd because that’s their job.
Their court case takes a novel approach. While it deals with the election fraud of 2020, it does not seek to overturn the election or hard-to-prove (from a legal standpoint) allegations of voter fraud. Instead, it seeks to hold 385 members of congress, Biden, Harris, and former VP Pence accountable for failing to uphold their oaths of office in the face of a clear threat to the Constitution. By voting against a simple investigation, they failed their oaths. And, according to the Constitution, they are bound by their oaths. It’s not just a ceremony.
Fortunately, the Loy Brunson and his brothers were both patriots and determined ones. And they found a backdoor to get their case to the SCOTUS. Not only that, but found a willing and receptive audience. Tune in to hear how they got around the hurdles. And, incredibly, what the remedy is that they seek: the removal from office of those who violated their oaths.
And not just that. But to bar them from ever holding office again.
Think that would send some shock waves through our faithless government officials? Talk about government accountability!
And get the day for the Supreme Court conference: January 6, 2023.
Censorship and Government Propaganda
Next up, we welcome Joe Mobley to talk about Big Tech censorship. Censorship has been an ongoing problem. Especially on social media but not just there. Because it turns out our own government worked with Big Tech to censor voices and opinions they didn’t like. Once again, there’s that whole Constitution thing. You’d think someone in government would have read it by now. And maybe discovered that the First Amendment prohibits the government from censoring opinions.
Or maybe they did read it. Which is why the government has been working with Big Tech to censor. Let them do the dirty work.
Should @iSpyRadio be banned for telling the truth? (click for full size)
As mentioned on the show on the right is Mark’s Twitter post that has him banned. Apparently, the censors on Twitter don’t like it when someone criticizes socialized medicine. What do you think? Does it deserve a ban? (By the way, it’s 100% accurate. Right now, Canada’s socialized medicine system is actively encouraging the old and infirm to kill themselves. To save they system money. To the point that euthanasia is now the 6th leading cause of death in Canada.
We welcome Joe Mobley, a member of the National Center for Public Policy Research’s Project 21, to talk about Big Tech’s censorship. Project 21 has been a leading organization for Black conservative voices for over 25 years.
What got our attention was Joe’s article in the Daily Caller: “The Walls Are Closing In On Big Tech“. Are Big Tech’s days of censorship numbered? Could —okay, more to the point, will—the new congress finally take action on Section 230 to hold Big Tech accountable for its censorship? Tune in to hear how that might work and what it might look like.
But it’s more than just censorship. It’s government propaganda. Because when they’re not banning conservative voices, they’re pushing their own Leftist ideology at the request of our own government. More of that government accountability right there.
Don’t miss this discussion of how bad it is. And what is already happening to turn it around.

[The] brothers have filed their suit and it is currently with the US Supreme Court. They claim that the actions by US politicians to ignore requests and arguments from the people to investigate the 2020 Election fell on deaf ears. But the brothers argue that these politicians had a Constitutional duty to investigate.
The case received more attention after it reached the Supreme Court. It now has been given a docket number 22-380 with the court.
Show Summary: Some post-game analysis of what happened on election night with Marc Thielman. Despite the gloomers and doomers in the Republican Party complaining the wins weren’t big enough, there was a lot of good news for Republicans in 2022’s elections. And the elections would be really good news if they were not clearly trying to insert votes into races not yet called. Does anyone remember when they said they needed the machines to speed things up? But first: Kimberly Hermann with the Southeastern Legal Foundation to discuss what they’ve learned since finally being given the court-ordered (twice!) external communications by the George Soros D.A. with those helping set up the successful attempt to remove an elected governor — despite the D.A. having none of the evidence she claimed she did.

Elections do matter. But what happens when they attempt to steal one? Or they do steal them? Or, even worse, overturn an election? Like what they tried to do with President Trump.
Because you can’t trust a government if you can’t trust how they were elected.
This week, we talk with Marc Thielman—former gubernatorial candidate, now activists, consultant, and lead petitioner on real school choice—about the 2022 midterm elections. Plus, he is deeply involved in the election integrity movement.

We go over the outcomes (so far), and look at the national landscape. As of this writing, it is looking like the Republicans will take the House and possibly the senate. So why are the Doomers in the Republican party moaning and blaming Trump?
Imagine winning the Superbowl by two points only to have half the team complain about the quarterback. If that’s Mitch McConnell’s and Paul Ryan’s level of teamwork, it makes you question just how hard they tried to win.
But, as we discuss, there are some good evidences that there really was a red wave. Just not the red tsunami we were hoping for. And, sadly, not here in Oregon either.
With the ongoing fraud on display for all to see in Arizona, we talk with Marc about changes that need to happen to ensure we can trust the elections again.
Elections: If you can’t Win Them, Undo Them
But before we get to Marc, we talk with Kimberly Hermann. We last talked with her in April 2022 after their big win against the corrupt George Soros Missouri D.A., Kim Gardner. John Solomon’s Just the News had filed a FOIA request for communications between Garnder and outside forces involved in her wrongful prosecution of Eric Greitens. After winning in court, after several court orders to enforce, Gardner finally handed over the ordered information two weeks ago.
In case you missed it, Eric Greitens was elected governor in 2016. He then set out to actually fulfill his campaign promises. Unheard of, right? One of those was to dismantle a “low income housing” project that was soaking the government and making a lot of people wealthy. This made people angry. And some of those angry people approached Kim Gardner with a scheme to remove the governor. And it worked.
Gardner accused Greitens of trying to blackmail a hairdresser with whom he’d had an affair, by threatening to release a nude photo of her if she talked about the affair. Greitens admitted to the affair but denied ever trying to blackmail anyone.
Eventually, Greitens gave into pressure and resigned. Except. Gardner made it all up. She had to withdraw her prosecution because she admitted she never had the photo she claimed Greitens had used for blackmail.
What a mess. But damage done. An election overturned.
Prosecutorial Misconduct
Don’t miss what the FOIA documents reveal. Mysterious payments, and confirmation that, yes, this was a clear case of prosecutorial misconduct.
By all rights, Kim Gardner should be removed from her position. And she should be prosecuted. But in today’s corrupt “justice” system, it looks like she will not be punished beyond the slap on the wrist she already got.
But. Thanks to the elections, there is a new sheriff in town (well, new state attorney general). And perhaps he will take up the case to restore trust in the system.
And let’s hope prosecuting Kim Gardner is just the start. Let’s hope elections also draw the crosshairs.

The Mar a Lago Raid | Why the FBI is Beyond Redemption
Show Summary:This week, we’re taking an in-depth look at the FBI. It’s been a couple weeks since the fascists in the White House decided to raid the home of the former president for documents that were winding its way through the courts. What were they really after? But what they did show was that those in power will do anything to stay in power by destroying all challengers. And if you think the Mar a Lago raid is the high water mark of Biden’s punishment of his opposition…? No. Biden is just getting started.

This Week – The Mar a Lago Raid
With the Mar a Lago raid, the resident in the White House once again demonstrated he was elected through voter fraud. Simply, if you won by millions of votes, there’s no need to try to prosecute people who say you didn’t. If you won legitimately and fairly and honestly, you have nothing to fear. But you do have plenty to fear if you didn’t. And even more so if the person who says you didn’t has evidence that you didn’t.
Is that what the FBI was after when they decided to raid Mar a Lago? Trump was sitting on evidence of voter fraud? Or maybe it was evidence of the Russia collusion hoax, which proved who was involved and what they did. Or perhaps it was all a set up. The government packed his boxes with confidential materials that they could then claim Trump stole — in a scheme to stop him from running again.
der Führer ist speaking!
Regardless, the FBI and DOJ deciding to raid Mar a Lago will go down in history as one of the most unseemly acts of any president. Even Nixon wouldn’t have done it. Think of that.
And did you catch that weird “we must punish those who oppose us” speech from Biden the other day? It looked like what would happen if Hitler and Stalin had a baby.
But all of this points to one conclusion: the FBI and DOJ are beyond redemption. And pretty much every other agency.
And THAT is the reason they raided Mar a Lago. Punish anyone who would expose and oppose the system.
The FBI Must be Dismantled
When a limb gets infected with gangrene, many times it needs to be amputated. We’re at that stage with the FBI.
We’re also at that stage with the CIA. The NSA. The SEC. And certainly with the FDA, CDC, EPA, and the Energy, Education, and a host of other departments. And let’s definitely not forget about the IRS. The infection and corruption has become so widespread within these agencies, they need to amputated or the whole body will die.
The FBI and DOJ are clinging to this notion that they can still be trusted. Sorry. That’s not how trust works. You can’t say “trust me” when you just committed untrustworthy actions.
This week, we talk with Scott Shephard who is an attorney and himself a director of a program—an “agency”—at the National Center for Public Policy Research. We get his insights from an attorney’s viewpoint and that of a director/manager about what needs to happen to the FBI. Is it time for the FBI to be disbanded? Or can they still be saved? How can you tell? And what to do if (when!) they are disbanded. Now that the emotions have died down—a little—from the Mar a Lago raid, we can dissect what happened and what to be done.
And of course we can’t have Scott on without a quick catch up on two of The Free Enterprise Project’s lawsuits: Against Starbucks just filed this week and one already at trial against Nasdaq.

But there are more problems and more spending than ever. This week, we continue our talk with healthcare-system expert, Lisa Lettenmaier, but zero in on the two root causes of many of, if not all of, our many healthcare crises.

This Week – Our Many Healthcare Crises
We continue our deep dive into the problems plaguing our health care system—the many healthcare crises and the ever-growing expense. How is it that we are spending more than ever — by far! — on healthcare and yet it’s just one crisis after another?
But this week, we zero in on the two main problems. And they should be no surprise, really, for anyone who has followed I Spy Radio’s many shows on healthcare or for anyone who has a lick of common sense. The two root causes are money and government. Particularly, government interference.
Healthcare crises in the UK. THIS is what they want to emulate?
We bring back our healthcare system expert, Lisa Lettenmaier. Lisa is currently an insurance agent and owns Health Source NW. But her background is in accounting, overseeing budgets and forecasting for major companies. So when she looks at the healthcare crises, she is viewing it not just from an insurance standpoint but from a systemic-analyst’s viewpoint.
Need healthcare and not sure where to turn? Give Lisa a call. Her website is www.HealthSourceNW.com. She helps individuals and businesses throughout Oregon and SW Washington make sure they have the right coverage for when, God forbid, they really need it. Will your policy cover what you think it does?
The Root Cause of So Many Healthcare Crises
This week, you’ll also hear an extended opener from I Spy Radio host, Mark Anderson, on the government’s interference — sabotage, really — of the normal free-market forces that would normally lower cost and improve care. Mark walks you through what a free market system would look like. Hint: we don’t have one now (remember Obama et al. when they were pushing Obamacare: “the free market failed”?), not in health care. And he walks you through the government interfering with the free market, much of which can be traced back to a 1943 IRS ruling.
If you didn’t already think “they” are destroying things on purpose, you’ll believe it after this show. No one, no government, makes this many “mistakes” on purpose.

Show Summary: This week, two momentous decisions by the Supreme Court will have long-reaching impact. We talk with constitutional attorney, Jonathan Emord, about the Dobbs and EPA rulings, why they are so important, and the impact they will have. And why Dobbs and EPA signal a whole new court—and the first true major blow to the deep state in decades.

This Week – Dobbs and EPA
Instead of two guests, we have two topics. We are going to dig in deep into two recent Supreme Court decisions: the Dobbs and EPA rulings.
Specifically, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization and WV v EPA. These two decisions alone represent a huge shift at SCOTUS.
Both of rulings these are momentous in their own rights.
Dobbs because it erases an imaginary “Constitutional right” of abortion and will open the door to more protections for the unborn at the state level. And the EPA ruling, because it restores some Constitutional balance among the branches of government. And opens the door to weakening the administrative state. Provided that Congress exercises the power that was restored to it.
Did the 2022 elections just get yugely more important? Yes.
Dobbs Overturns Roe v Wade
Why was Roe v Wade so hard to overturn? How did the 1973 court get is so wrong and invent a “right”? Tune in to find out. And, also importantly, going forward Dobbs gives SCOTUS the mental permission — the fortitude and courage — to make other rulings that restore constitutional order.
The era of the John Roberts court is officially over.
Could America, after all the shrieking is done, could America turn more pro life after the overturn of Roe v Wade with more protections for the unborn? And could we be witnessing the beginning of the end of the Deep State?
West Virginia vs EPA – First Major Blow to the Deep State
As Jonathan Emord reminds us, the administrative state is the true government because they hold all the real power. Effectively. Because Congress has not used its power. And the Executive Branch has both abused its power through overreach and failed to use its power to rein in unelected bureaucrats.
Want to know how the administrative state (aka the Deep State) took over? Then you must read Jonathan Emord’s The Authoritarians
The EPA ruling just restored the separation of powers in a big way. The EPA grabbed a tremendous amount of power when it decided it could use the Clean Air Act to effectively regulate the entire economy via climate change. Now, its WV v EPA ruling stripped the EPA of that power and handed it back to Congress. Effectively, SCOTUS reaffirmed that laws must come through Congress, not the unelected bureaucrats of the administrative state. And, potentially, could strip billions from the Far Left’s theft of public dollars.
With these two rulings, we stand at the threshold of history.

When you consider the implications of this one decision, they are awesome. It doesn’t just apply to the EPA and its elaborate plans for changing the global climate through command and control. It also applies to every other agency [all 432 of them], including the CDC and even the Federal Reserve itself.
Read this terrific and fascinating post from the wife of Andrew Torba (the founder of Gab.com) on the incredible link between a mom and her unborn child that continues for years after birth. Or after an abortion. Could this explain why so many women deeply regret their choice?
The Washington Post in an editorial expressed absolute shock and alarm at the implications: The directive from the White House, issued late Wednesday, sounds technical: creating a new “Schedule F” within the “excepted service” of the federal government for employees in policy-making roles, and directing agencies to determine who qualifies. Its implications, however, are profound and alarming. It gives those in power the authority to fire more or less at will as many as tens of thousands of workers currently in the competitive civil service, from managers to lawyers to economists to, yes, scientists.
Show Summary: Why elections matter. All elections. Not just the ones at the top of the ticket. But all the way down to city councilors, D.A.s, and judges—as one governor found out too late. And we talk with outsider, Bridget Barton on her own run for Oregon’s governor and how she’ll fix the quagmire of Oregon’s government when most everyone in that government will be against her.

This Week – The Importance of Elections
Far, far too many people only vote for those at the top of the ticket. In part, because those are the names the recognize. Who pays attention to city councilors or district attorneys, right?
We all should. Because this week, we talk with Kimberly Hermann, the general counsel for the Southeastern Legal Foundation about the strange case of a George Soros prosecutor in Missouri, Kim Gardner. Garnder targeted and removed a duly elected governor from office.
But it turns out that the prosecutor made it up. Just like in the Russia collusion narrative concocted by democrats, there was no evidence, and Gardner lied about it. But—mission accomplished—she effectively removed the duly elected governor.
But it’s not over. Because now, Southeastern Legal Foundation, which is John Solomon’s attorney, won their case before Missouri’s Supreme Court to get public records from Gardner’s office, including all communications between state officials, individuals, groups, and even Gardner’s real boss: George Soros.
Bridget Barton for Oregon Governor
We continue our discussion on why elections matter as we welcome first-time guest, Bridget Barton, who is one of many (too many!) Republican candidates for Oregon’s governor. Bridget Barton is definitely a political outsider as a first-time candidate and clearly not the preferred pick of the ORP. Oregon Republican Party.
But what separates her from the pack? What makes her uniquely qualified to tackle Oregon’s version of “The Swamp”?
Bridget has a 30-year career of running a successful conservative business magazine, Brainstorm NW, in which they advocated for conservative solutions to Oregon’s many problems. If only Oregon had listened, maybe we wouldn’t be a national leader of how not to solve problems. Like crime, homelessness, and addiction.
Be sure to tune in to hear her solutions, which have worked when they’ve been tried, and what makes her personal story so relevant to Oregon’s problems.
