15-39 We’re Not at War. But We’re at War.

Show 15-39 Summary: It’s a shocking reality that the political Left sees violence and murder as acceptable response to speech they disagree with. The rise in far-left political violence will only get worse. This week, we reach out to a psychologist to better understand how people have been brainwashed by violent Antifa offshoot groups. But conservatives. especially Christians, sitting quietly and not getting involved is no longer an option. We talk with a trainer who helps engage conservatives to impact their communities and society.

This Week –Far-Left Political Violence: We’re Not at War, But We Are

In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder, many people are still shocked at how the Land of Free Speech got to the point where someone was murdered for his speech. Too many people had no idea just how dangerous Antifa really was. And how their further-left spinoffs are actively training their members to kill.

How did we get here?

That’s easy. The Right has been too tolerant. And too silent. Well, it’s time for the Right and Middle to rise up. And to stop being silent.

A Psychologist on the Left’s Manipulation and Violence

For people familiar with Far-Left, Marxist ideology, it is no surprise the Left lies, manipulates, and exploits society’s most vulnerable. But unlike years past, they have first isolated confused children, convinced them to hate who they really because they are “in the wrong body.” And then manipulate them to channel their hate and anger toward society and authority.

But it’s not just youth. The Left uses clever marketing and the media to confuse vulnerable seniors into thinking policies that are actually good for seniors are somehow bad for them. Which is why the largest demographic that hates Trump are American seniors. Democrats who shriek “disinformation” misinform seniors about Trump’s tariffs, no tax on social security, and more. And convince them Trump is cutting Medicare. He’s not. He’s removing people on Medicare/Medicaid and Social Security who legally should not be getting it. And by removing them, there is more money for those who deserve it.

Tune in to hear psychologist Dr. Angela Plowhead examine the Left’s manipulation. It is truly dangerous. And will lead to more violence and killing. But also hear her solutions to reach out to manipulated seniors and break through their mental blocks.

Keep an eye on Angela. She is running for office in Oregon’s Senate District 10. Her campaign site is Angela4Oregon.com.

Oregon desperately needs common-sense conservatives like Angela Plowhead in office. Help her get there with a donation.

Not Sure What to Do? Get Some Training

Tired of sitting quietly while the Left rampages? You should be. Like any abuser, silence emboldens the Far Left. There are some trainings coming up in the Willamette Valley for conservatives and Christians to learn how to engage and impact their communities. We talk with Scott Allen, the president of the Disciple Nations Alliance who will be leading the training along with Tim Throckmorton, the National Director for Church Engagement & Community Impact for the Family Research Council.

The Far-Left sees your silence about their ideology as permission. And that can and does lead to violence. We are seeing it. And we need to find ways to stop it.

Scott talks to us about the need to get engaged, to not be silent, and also discusses Marxist ideology. The violence we’re seeing now is Neo-Marxism at its worst. (Is there a good side to Marxism?) This trainings will give conservatives, Christians, church leaders, the knowledge and tools to impact their communities.

To learn more, read the workshop flyer and about the trainers (PDFs)
The trainings will be held October 13th, in NE Portland and October 14th in Salem and Corvallis
The events are free to attend. (Donations gladly accepted!)

It’s time. Time to rise up. Not sure where to start? Getting some knowledge is always a good place to start. As long as you can use it.

15-30 Russia Collusion Hoax Declassification Reality Check | What Now?

Show 15-30 Summary: Finally, the real truth comes out about the Russia Collusion Hoax. Newly declassified documents from Director of Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, confirm what we have been saying. The evidence finally and truly reveals Obama’s deep involvement in the Russia hoax. But what do the documents actually say? Did he actually direct it? Or just some minions under him? We ask Mike Howell, president of the Oversight Project, about things to get a reality check. And what now? The word treason is being thrown around. What would it take to get there? And if not treason, what can Obama and his co-conspirators be charged with? Or will democrats once again attack democracy and get away with it?

This Week – Russia Collusion Hoax Exposed

The Russia collusion hoax evidence was declassified. On one level, it’s not new news. We knew the Obama administration, working with the Hillary Clinton campaign, created and entirely false disinformation campaign to smear candidate Donald Trump with “Russia collusion” to steal the 2016 presidential election.That’s been known since Congressman Devin Nunes went to the White House with the evidence he had seen.And that broke the scandal wide open.

Rather than “Russia collusion” it was quite the opposite. At a White House meeting in July 2016, CIA chief, John Brennan shared what the CIA had learned from Russian sources. Hillary Clinton, in an attempt to distract from her email scandal, planned to smear Trump with “Russia collusion.” Obama, Biden, Susan Rice, and the heads of the intelligence committees leaped into action to give credibility to the smear. Despite knowing that it was a political smear and a lie, James Comey launched the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump three days after that meeting. And the Russia collusion hoax was born.

If you heard our previous shows on disinformation you know this is how disinformation works. There must be a a grain of truth — meaning a grounding in reality. By opening the investigation. Obama, Comey, and their minions in the intelligence community gave that grain of truth to Hillary’s smear. Without which it never would have worked. Think about it. Who in their right mind would trust anything Hillary had to say.

Learn more about disinformation. Democrats and their Desperate Disinformation Ploy (Disinformation, Part 1) and Disinformation in Action: Recognize it, Fight it (Part II)

But an FBI investigation into Trump-Russia collusion? And judges issuing FISA warrants? And multiple intelligence agencies all working hard to stop the Russians from interfering in our elections? Suddenly, the dynamics change. Maybe Hillary is on to something. Maybe she’s telling the truth. And maybe she’s a hero, trying to save democracy.All that rather than what it really was. A complete lie. And an attack on democratic elections. Led by democrats.

But what does the declassification and release of all this evidence for conspiracy mean in reality? What now? Trump and Gabbard are both throwing around the word “treason.” Does this rise to treason? If so, what then? If not, what does this conspiracy rise to?

Tune in to find out!

15-29 Still Waiting | Oregon’s Dirty Voter Rolls in Limbo

Show 15-29 Summary: Judicial Watch sued Oregon to clean up its voter rolls, which JW called “the dirtiest in the nation.” Oregonians are not surprised by this. Oregon didn’t deny its rolls are dirty. But Oregon claimed JW and its clients had no standing and asked a judge to toss the lawsuit. That hearing was a month ago, June 18th. But the question is, why wouldn’t Oregon want to clean up its voter rolls? It’s the law for one. And voter fraud and election fraud have been proven. Those can only happens with dirty voter rolls.  We get an update from Judicial Watch on the status of their case.

This Week – Oregon’s Dirty Voter Rolls Lawsuit

Oregon has the dirtiest voter rolls in America. We’ve said before that Oregon pioneered 100% vote by mail; it should surprise no one if Oregon also pioneered (perfected) election fraud. Did they? It’s up to Oregon to prove otherwise. And resisting efforts to prove trustworthiness does the opposite. If you want people to trust election outcomes, then prove it by taking steps that would inspire trust. Not undermine it. Like taking people to court who simply ask you to follow the law and remove people from voter rolls who don’t belong there.

As it is, Oregon has created the appearance that the democrat-run elections division wants dirty voter rolls. Clearly, they don’t want to clean them up. Why?

But aside from undermining trust in Oregon’s election, Oregon’s actions have done genuine harm. Which is why the plaintiffs in Judicial Watch’s lawsuit deserve standing.

Judicial Watch Lawsuit

The hearing in federal court was held on June 18th in Eugene. The judge said he should have a ruling in a couple weeks. As of this writing, it’s been over a month.

When we scheduled to have Eric Lee, a senior attorney on Judicial Watch’s Election Integrity team, we assumed there would be a ruling by now. So instead we discuss broader legal issues to give you a better understanding of the legal issues around this case and how they are handled. Like, what can or can’t an attorney publicly discuss  while the case is being decided? Are judges influenced by public opinion?

Why it matters: Voter fraud and attempts to steal elections do happen. In Michigan, more than 164,000 fraudulent votes in the 2024 election were caught in time and prevented from being counted. Those fraudulent ballots were more than twice Trump’s 2024 margin of victory in Michigan, which was only 80,103.  See Michigan voter fraud link in show notes section, below.

Voter Rolls Hearing

We also talk about the hearing itself. Host Mark Anderson attended the hearing in person (you can read Mark’s take on the hearing on this Facebook post — give him a like and a follow while you’re there!) as did about 30 other patriots.

The entire essence of the hearing is whether or not the plaintiffs have standing to move forward. So we also talk with Eric about that whole “standing” issue. We hear it so often but what is it — and why is it? We also talk about what the state thought was its big bombshell — and what The Oregonian got wrong in its writeup of the hearing.

Tune in to hear why this case should be given standing for at least the Independent Party and move forward. What happens if there’s a nay? And what happens if there’s a yea? We talk about that last one. It moves on to discovery. But what will Judicial Watch be looking for?

This Week – Bigger than the Big Beautiful Bill 

What’s bigger than the Big Beautiful Bill? Fixing America’s economy itself.

But there are a lot of hurdles to get there. Not least of which is dealing with Republicans in the House and Senate. Not to mention Democrats (and a few Republicans) who would and will do anything to sabotage Trump’s attempts to fix America’s problems.

At the top of the list is America’s massive spending problem. Both parties got us here. And Moody’s recently downgraded America’s credit rating because of the exploding debt. In 2019, In 2019 we spent $4.5 trillion—the last year we had some fiscal common sense. That blew up in 2020 with covid. By 2024 that exploded even more to $6.9 trillion. An increase of over 50%.  In just five years. Worse, we borrowed $2 trillion to spend that $6.9 trillion.

Right now, we borrow every dollar that we use to pay just the interest on our $36.8 trillion national debt. Interest payments alone eat up 20% of all federal income and by 2030 that will rise to 30% of all revenue. Thirty percent. Right off the top of our income. Just to pay interest.

Washington, DC? We have a problem.

And you’re not serious about fixing it.

Fixing the Bigger Problem

While it is true that the Big Beautiful Bill does not go nearly far enough to cut (slash) spending, it is just one step of many to get us to the Big Win. We’re getting there.

We have to remember that this will take time. There are no magic silver bullets. Four years of Biden left the US economy on the brink until Trump was elected, and his approach is backing us away from the economic cliff we were about to go over.

I mean, can you imagine if Kamala and the Democrats would be doing to us right now?

We’ll fill in the gaps of what you’re not hearing in the left-stream media and help you better understand what you’re probably hearing in more reliable media. Trump knows what he’s doing long-term with America’s economy and has a strategy to get there. The BBB is one step toward Trump reshaping the whole of America’s economy.

We welcome back Jonathan Williams, the president and chief economist of the American Legislative Exchange Council. We discuss Moody’s downgrade, the not-serious-enough spending cuts, and whether DOGE’s work has all been for nothing. We’ll fill in the gaps of what you’re not hearing in the left-stream media — and help you better understand what you’re hearing in more reliable media.  Like, why did so many on the right completely miss what Trump was doing with tariffs?

And we can’t have Jonathan on without at least one segment about Oregon. The business image Oregon is projecting to the nation is not good. Plus, you’ll hear some truly worrisome responses to a recent survey of Oregon’s businesses. Hint: everything Oregon’s Democrats are doing will make it worse. Far worse with Far Left policies.

Democrats never learn. Perhaps that’s why Oregon ranks so low in education outcomes.

This Week – Scott McEwen’s Take

No one can say Trump’s first 100 days were slow and uneventful. Executive orders undoing Biden’s damage. DOGE finding no end of democrat-led fraud, abuse, and corruption, pocketing billions of taxpayer dollars. Judicial activism like the country has never seen before. Restoring American energy dominance. Tariffs to force better trade deals. And now the latest revelation from RFK: Biden’s HHS Department was the “principle vector” for child sex trafficking in America.

No matter where you look, the Trump administration is impacting every day Americans. Which is why the democrats are so angry. And why the media has been spinning like crazy, with with over 95% negative news coverage of Trump, JD Vance, and especially Elon Musk.

Judges, Immigration, Revelations, and Prosecutions

Scott contacted us a few weeks ago that he had some exclusive news he wanted to share with our audience. Plus, he wanted to announce an upcoming book signing at a lifelong friend’s store in Aurora. (See details below.)

Scott McEwen is not “just” a bestselling writer. He is also a former trial lawyer and a fierce American patriot with a deep sense of justice and what is right and wrong. As a former attorney, he is deeply troubled what sees as judicial activism and its attack on our Constitution. The foundation of our legal system. But there is justice coming.

A Patriot’s Perspective

President Trump's Truth Social post about the impact of tariffs on income tax. Bad news for the Trump haters.
Don’t worry, Trump haters: You can choose to keep paying your taxes.

We start out with the extreme irony of NY Attorney General Letitia James — who prosecuted Trump for “real estate fraud,” claiming he had overvalued his properties to obtain a loan. Except it turns out Letitia is the one who committed real estate fraud to obtain a loan. (Always accuse the other side of that which you yourself are guilty.) According to reports, o get more favorable loan terms, she claimed on her mortgage application the home — in Virginia — would be her primary residence. Now, the DOJ is opening a case against her. And it could cost her her job. (Oh the delicious, delicious irony!)

Then we wade into judicial activism, immigration, and the stunning revelation at a Cabinet meeting. RFK Jr. revealed that child-sniffing Joe Biden’s HHS Department was, the “principle vector” of child sex trafficking in the U.S., acting as the middle man.

Remember, the Biden administration “lost” over 300,000 children during his four years as they pushed unaccompanied minors out of detention centers into America — and then lost track of them. We also get Scott’s take on the big reveal from last week: Peter Ticktin has recorded evidence of the real insurrection. Democrats in September 2020 plotting the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. Treason?

Epstein, the fake Russia collusion, insurrection, treason, child trafficking. How much more can we take and when will the prosecutions start?

Tune in for a great discussion you won’t want to miss. And make plans to see Scott in person on May 17th!

15-17 Deep State Just Got Deeper – Recorded Evidence of the Real Insurrection

Show 15-17 Summary: This is one of those shows that took unexpected, fascinating turns. And it is not one to miss. We’d invited attorney Peter Ticktin, a life-long friend of President Trump, back on to discuss his lawsuit challenging the results of Florida Congressional District 14, where they found evidence of election fraud. Thousands of mail-in ballots may have been cast by modified duplicates buried in the voter rolls. Enough to overturn the results. Except that discussion turned into a deeper discussion about the Deep State and what really happened on January 6. Tune in to hear the actual, recorded evidence Ticktin has from an informant who was there discussing the actual insurrection.

This Week – The Actual Insurrection

When President Trump first decided to run for president, the uphill battle wasn’t just securing votes, it was fighting off the Deep State. But now in his second term actions he’s made it his mission to root out the Deep State. Like DOGE investigating and exposing the fiscal abuses has proven the existence and depth of the Deep State. But as Trump continues to look, there is even deeper, hidden depths, including this week’s show topic: voter fraud.

But it’s even deeper than that. And there’s evidence. Recorded evidence from an informant. Recorded evidence from an informant

This week, we welcome back Peter Ticktin of the Ticktin Law Group. Mr. Ticktin, a life-long friend to President Trump (they went to high school together), has led many of the lawsuits that fought back against the Deep State attacks on President Trump.

We talked previously with him about his election integrity lawsuit which uncovered thousands of ballots cast by modified duplicates through mail-in voting in FL-14 in the 2024 election. But Mark’s conversation with Ticktin led to a very surprising discussion on Ticktin’s work on the J6 insurrection. And the proof that Ticktin has on just who actually did plan the insurrection wasn’t those who the government arrested.

Tune in to find out the shocking results and just how deep the Deep State is buried. And what they actually did.

There are a large number of J6 Defendants who were pardoned but who no longer receive their VA benefits, including medical care. They are still on No Fly Lists, Terrorist Watch Lists, and other forms of harassment and targeting. If you or someone you know are subjected to any of this or other harassment, contact Peter Ticktin.

15-15 Telescopes to Microscopes: Scientific Evidence Points to a Creator

Show 15-15 Summary: With new advances and discoveries and better equipment, scientific evidence points inescapably to a Creator. And that poses challenges to two foundational scientific theories: The Big Bang and Darwinism. From the universe to microbiology, the evidence is there—if you look. It’s no wonder the secular mainstream media doesn’t spotlight these. Tune in to hear I Spy Radio host Mark Anderson’s speech to the Capitol City Republican Women’s April 10th luncheon where he discussed faith and science. And shared the growing and stunning evidence that can help build your faith. You’ll walk away knowing there must be a Creator.

This Week – Scientific Evidence… for Your Faith?

Over the last several decades there have been amazing discoveries in science that point, almost conclusively, to a Creator. why don’t we hear about these? Of course the reason is science and the mainstream media are secular and in some cases outright hostile to Christianity and faith.

War over Information

Real scientists don’t use exclamation points

Finding evidence for faith and God faces challenges. Even if you’re looking. It doesn’t help that we are in a war over information. From the Biden administration’s censorship to Big Tech helping with that censorship.

And with the race toward A.I. — programmed by and fed leftwing ideology and academic papers — information will be filtered more than ever. How will it handle things like faith? Or God? Or Christianity? Given recent experiences with censorship we have an indication of where that will go.

Evidence for God: Telescopes to Microscopes

From telescopes to microscopes, new and better instruments are revealing more and stronger evidence for God. That He really is there. That He really did create the Universe. And that He really did create us. Frankly, the evidence is overwhelming.

But listen for yourself to decide.

CCRW April 2025 Speech: Evidence for Faith

Capitol City Republican Women logoThe Capital City Republican Women invited I Spy Radio Show host, Mark Anderson, to speak at their April 10th, 2025, luncheon. It being near Easter, and after nearly losing his wife last Easter, Mark spoke about faith, science, and some incredible scientific evidence that points to a Creator. Heartfelt faith is wonderful. But when you add reason and intellect to faith, that is truly powerful.

Tune in to hear the impossible odds of the universe’s design that point so definitely to a Creator that even self-described atheists are conceding there must have been a Creator. And on the microscopic level, there is no way the irreducible complexity of “machines” inside our cells could have “just happened.”

15-03 Who Fiddled While L.A. Burned? Plus: Secondary Ignition Sources in Los Angeles Fires?

Show 15-03 Summary: This week we’re taking a look at the Los Angeles fires disaster.. And while the far-left Democrats’ environmental policies have gotten a lot of the focus, could there have been other mandates with the electric grid itself that could have amplified the problems? L.A.’s smart meters. Which have been known to cause fires. And even explode when exposed to water and fires. Smart meters were cited in the 2017 Northern California fires. And problems with them go back far earlier. But in the rush for green energy were bureaucrats too eager to look the other way?

Los Angeles Fires – What Happened and Why

It’s Climate Change. It’s Gavin Newsome. Or the Democrats. Or the Los Angeles mayor. It’s the fire hydrants. It’s the Santa Ana winds. Well, we definitely played a role. But wherever you look, there is plenty of blame to go around. And as we looked deeper into things, it turns out there could be yet another layer to the blame sandwich. Namely, smart meters. But we’ll come back around to that.

There has already been plenty of blame to go around. And well deserved. From Governor Gavin Newsom to the California far-left democrat supermajorities in the California legislatures to the Los Angeles mayor and water commissioners and fire chief. The list of who-should-be-blamed is lengthy. And that doesn’t even include arson or accidental fires.

And, no, Climate Change was not to blame. We’ve said it before: IF you truly believe that Global Warming is making the Earth hotter and drier, then you would do more forest management and not what the environmental left does. Which is almost nothing. And this is especially true in areas, like Los Angeles, which is an area known for its arid, dry conditions. The failure of the far left’s environmental policies — of get 100s of billions of Climate Change cash from the taxpayers and do nothing with it — was definitely front and center.

But was there yet another layer of Climate Change stupidity at fault? Los Angeles’s mandatory smart meters, as part of their green energy revolution.

Did Smart Meters Make Things Worse

This week we welcome back an internationally recognized expert on natural resources, energy, the environment, and property rights—Dr. Bonner Cohen. He is also a senior policy analyst at CFACT.

There are known problems with smart meters. Yes, they have caused fires. Tens of thousands of them across the country. Yes, they have design flaws. Yes, their lithium-ion batteries can get explosively hot — as much as 5,000°. Which is about 2,000 degrees hotter than the melting point of titanium.

Dr. Cohen knows all too well about the inherent fire dangers of lithium-ion batteries, having written an article just a year ago about their incredible fire hazards. Smart meters have lithium-ion batteries. If they catch fire, they can quickly accelerate to up to thousands of degrees and that heat can get into the homes. They have also been know to be susceptible to water and heat (like fires) and were believed to have played a role in the 2017 Northern California fires.

Smart meters are mandatory in Los Angeles. And they’re a part of the future of green energy—in part because they allow greater control over your usage of electricity.  Why? Because they connect wirelessly with the utility company, and can be both adjusted. And switched off. Could they have played a role in the 2025 Los Angeles fires?  We don’t know yet. For certain, it is a fact that smart meters have been involved in past fires. And we definitely know that no one will find anything if no one looks. And we know no one will look if no one asks questions.

There is so much to discuss and uncover about smart meters, that we will have to discuss them in more depth in a future show. Because we also know that if the Far Left democrats in California and Los Angeles get their way, the smart meters will be mandatory in the next Los Angeles.

Terrifying Possibilities for More Los Angeles Fires?

But perhaps the most troubling aspect of the so-called smart meters is that since they are remotely accessed, there’s a very real potential that they could be hacked. We already know the Chinese have hacked into U.S. systems and infrastructure. Imagine a scenario where hackers switch on and off smart meters until their lithium-ion batteries overheat and ignite. One house every other block and they could spread before fire crews could get them under control.

That’s potentially pretty terrifying.

Former CIA Director James Woolsey warned, “What they’re doing now, they’re constructing what they call a ‘Smart Grid.’ … [T[o make it easier for you and me to call our homes on our cell phone and turn down our air-conditioning on a hot afternoon if we’re not there. Great, but that may well mean that a hacker in Shanghai with his cell phone could do the same thing or worse. And a so-called “Smart Grid” that is as vulnerable as what we’ve got is not smart at all, it’s a really, really stupid grid.”

And as for those smart meters and their lithium-ion batteries that have been known to catch fire? After we spoke with Dr. Cohen, a massive fire broke out at the Moss Landing  Power Plant, the world’s largest maker or lithium-ion batteries. The fire was so bad and there was so much toxic smoke that the area had to be evacuated.

14-30 A Nation at War with Itself | Moral Battleground in America (and Oregon)

Show 14-30 Summary: Since its founding, America has been at war with itself. Locked in a battle between its Christian-Judeo roots while allowing space for secularism. And other religions. But the battle between Christianity and secularism is the most pronounced. And recently, the Christians have been giving up ground. We talk with author Bill Donohue about the moral battleground in America, including the hate spewed by the Left at any who disagree with them. Then we talk with Dennis Linthicum, the Republican candidate running for Oregon’s Secretary of State about the moral path Oregon is on. But we especially wanted to have him back on to talk about the elections. How do we get to a secure election in Oregon? Where are the vulnerabilities if someone wanted to cheat? And how do we close them.

This Week – The Moral Battleground in America

This week we’re looking into the moral battleground in America. Yes, there is a moral war being waged right now and America. And Oregon. It’s the secular outlook versus the religious one that have been at war since America’s founding. What can we do to keep America on the right path?

We talk with Bill Donohue, an author and media personality. He has written thousands of articles and 10 books. His books focus on ethics and religion and their ongoing battle with the secularism and its attack on America and our way of life. His most recent book is Cultural Meltdown – the Secular Roots of Our Moral Crisis.

We also look at the Left working to dehumanize their political opponents, making it easier to hate them. Even shoot at someone who has been demonized as a “threat to democracy” and the nation.

Who Counts the Votes

We also talk with senator Dennis Linthicum, the Republican candidate for Oregon’s Secretary of State. If there is any statewide office that needs someone with a strong sense of morals and ethics, it is the secretary of state’s office. It is the watchdog for so much of government. The one that is responsible for auditing other agencies. And ensuring the fairness of our elections. It’s like that Stalin quote: “It’s not the people who vote that count, it’s the people who count the votes.”

We talk about Oregon and its own moral path but our main focus is on the elections. Do we have secure elections in Oregon? How do we get to secure elections? And why doesn’t this current set Secretary of State seemed to think that’s important. And why does the Oregonian label Dennis an “election denier”? (He’s not. He’s an election confirmer.”

Want to find out more about Dennis Linthicum and his policy issues? Visit ElectDennis.com.

The democrats in charge now are pretty transparent about their lack of lack of transparency. Which boils down to “trust us. We won.” What are they hiding?
