15-10 2024 Election Consequences: Trump’s Triumph vs. Oregon’s Decline

Show 15-10 Summary: In this episode, election consequences under the microscope. We zero in on the seismic divide between President Trump’s wealth-building vision and Oregon Governor Tina Kotek’s faltering policies. Natural resources expert Jennifer Hamaker unpacks Trump’s recent executive orders to revitalize federal forests and unlock their potential to shake up Oregon’s economy—despite Oregon’s efforts to take its state forests offline. Let them burn. Then we talk with attorney Peter Ticktin who exposes shocking evidence of voter fraud in Florida’s FL-14 race. This could be the first stone unturned in a national scandal involving millions of “clone voters.” With Oregon’s Democratic supermajorities pushing divisive bills and Trump’s agenda clashing with woke ideologies, this episode reveals the high stakes of the 2024 elections and leaves you eager for more.

This Week – 2024 Election Consequences

Elections matter—and stolen elections matter even more. This week, I Spy Radio dives into the stark contrast between President Trump’s bold vision for America’s prosperity and Oregon Governor Tina Kotek’s failing, ideology-driven policies that are dragging the state down. From Trump’s game-changing executive orders to explosive allegations of voter fraud in Florida, this episode uncovers the real consequences of the 2024 elections—and what’s at stake for our nation.

First, we welcome back Jennifer Hamaker, the president of ONRI—Oregon Natural Resource Industries. Jen drops exciting news about Trump’s plans to transform federal forests from a massive (and expensive!) liability into a powerhouse asset. She reveals how these executive orders could revive Oregon’s struggling mills, create jobs, and dismantle the state’s disastrous Habitat Conservation Plan. Jen also flagged critical Oregon bills to watch—some worth supporting, others that must be stopped—especially with Democrats now holding supermajorities after the 2024 election.

A good bill? For once? Read ONRI’s post about HB3103 on Facebook. If you don’t use Facebook, head to this substack page from Cyrus Javadi where the post originated.

There’s so much more to unpack that Jen will return in a few weeks!

Elections Matter. Stolen Elections Matter More

In the second half of the show, we welcome Peter Ticktin (). He’s the Florida attorney leading what could be a jaw-dropping election challenge in FL-14. After veteran Rocky Rochford’s suspicious loss, Ticktin’s team uncovered potential evidence of hundreds of thousands of “clone voters” (or modified duplicates) in Florida’s voter rolls. Possibly millions nationwide.

Read the Rod Martin article: “The Florida Voter Fraud Case That Could Overturn Democrat Cheat-By-Mail” and check the show notes section below for more.

In Pinellas County alone, these potentially fraudulent votes could have accounted for a staggering 99.1% of all returned mail-in ballots. Some 197,000 out of 198,700 could be duplicates. Ticktin discusses the sophisticated cryptographic algorithm behind this alleged fraud—on par with NSA-level tech—and what it could mean for America.

This investigation is just heating up, and Peter will be back to share more soon.

14-39 The 2024 Election – Two Elements of What’s at Stake

Show 14-39 Summary: It’s not just the candidates running. It’s what’s at stake in this election. And we look at just two elements with huge implications. Control over federal agencies, whether those will expand or be reined in and deregulated. And all the federal land that might be at stake thanks to a potential Supreme Court ruling — if they take it up and if the next administration acts on it.

This Week – What’s at Stake

It’s never just about the candidates running. It’s what’s at stake after the election. And we look at just two elements with huge implications of those potential futures. While the economy gets most of the attention, it’s much more than that.

First, we look at control over federal agencies, and whether those will expand or be reined in and deregulated. Or even disbanded. The regulatory agencies are the leash on the economy. Will the economy be given more rope or even let run off leash? Or chained up?

You can guess which candidate wants what on that. But with the new Loper-Bright Supreme Court decision, that overturned a previous SCOTUS ruling, Congress could, if it has the backbone, rein in these overreaching agencies that prevent economic expansion. We talk with Kimberley Herman, the executive director of Southeastern Legal Foundation, about what the overturn of the Chevron deference could mean for the future of government.

What’s at Stake: 640 million acres of federal lands

Years ago, we followed the effort to allow states to take possession of the federal lands within their own borders that had been promised to them at the time of statehood. And all the federal land that might be at stake thanks to a potential Supreme Court ruling — if they take it up and if the next administration acts on it.

That is, after all, what happened with the states east of the Mississippi. None of those states have massive amounts of land in their borders still held by the federal government. But for states West of the Mississippi and in particular, West of the Rockies, states have tremendous amounts of land within their borders still held by the federal government. Oregon has 53.03% of its land that is not its land—it’s held by the federal government. and it’s also tremendously mismanaged by the federal government. Meaning they don’t. And that’s why Oregon has massive forest fires every year. When you don’t manage forests they become kindling factories.

Now, a new lawsuit by Utah is at the Supreme Court. All they need are four justices to vote to hear the case before the full court. This could have huge implications for states that have so much of their land held by the federal government which is doing nothing with it. Imagine the impact of land being brought into active production and use whether that’s agriculture, timber, mining, camping, hunting… Kind of activity that will spur the economy. not to mention create taxable wealth for the government. Rather than letting it sit there and rot and burn which only wastes taxpayers’ money.

We welcomed back long-time guest, Myron Ebell (although it’s been a long time since we last spoke), who is now the chairman of American Lands Council.
