Liberals Plan No Kings 3 Blackout While Trump Makes D.C. Safe Again

Wednesday, November 5, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 4, 2025. 

0:30 We break down the political standoff that has brought Washington to a halt — and threatens to ground the nation’s air travel. With a government shutdown dragging on, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warns of nationwide flight chaos. From TSA staffing shortages to potential economic fallout, Democratic leaders are playing a dangerous game with American livelihoods and national security.

9:30 Plus we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.

  • Former Vice President Dick Cheney passed away this week at the age of 84.
  • It's election day for several states across the country. In New York City, communist anti-semite Zohran Mamdani is expected to win.
  • The Federal Government shutdown has now passed 35 days, breaking all previous government shutdown records.

13:00 From Karl Marx’s 19th-century theories to modern-day political promises, we explore why the socialist dream has repeatedly turned into a nightmare. When the state promises to take care of everything, everyone ends up poorer, less free, and more dependent.

16:00 The American Mamas tackle the latest protest trend from the Left—a planned weeklong shopping strike meant to hurt Donald Trump’s economy. The Mamas aren’t buying it. They unpack why the protest makes zero economic sense — and how, in trying to “crash” the Trump economy, participants would only end up hurting small businesses and their own paychecks.

23:00 We take a look at the growing power struggle inside the Democratic Party — and the rise of New York socialist Zohran Mamdani. As polls suggest Mamdani’s likely win, this election could mark a political coup from within, pushing Democrats further left than ever before — a seismic shift not seen since George McGovern’s 1972 transformation attempt.

26:00 We Dig Deep into the early results of President Trump’s controversial decision to deploy the National Guard in Washington, D.C. — and the numbers speak for themselves. From a 60% drop in murders to carjackings down 70%, new reports show dramatic crime reductions since the launch of Trump’s “D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force.” The data proves that restoring order and accountability works — even as Democrats in cities like Chicago and Portland continue to fight Trump’s authority in court.

32:30 We take a hard look at the complex legacy of former Vice President Dick Cheney — a man once considered one of the most influential figures in American foreign policy. We revisit the Iraq War and the long-debated question of whether the Bush administration knowingly exaggerated claims about weapons of mass destruction. And we look at Dick Cheney's later years—Liz Cheney’s role on the January 6th Committee to his own endorsement of Kamala Harris.

36:00 A new study out in Australia says hope may be the most powerful thing in your life, and that's a Bright Spot. The study from the Good News Network found hopeful individuals experience better health, stronger relationships, and greater success in education and work. The research shows that people who nurture hope are not only more resilient but also recover faster from setbacks and resist the pull of negativity.

40:00 We discuss a striking ripple effect of the “defund the police” movement—citizens increasingly turning to self-protection products. In China manufacturers are producing anti-stab or “urban protection wear” clothing, such as coats, shirts, and vests designed to resist knife attacks. Americans are feeling less safe and they're saying, "Whoa!" 

41:30 And we end today's show with a story out of Lafayette, Louisiana. Teurlings Catholic High School celebrated a historic win against St. Thomas Moore on the football field. But what made the news was what happened after the game.

Transgender Virtue Signaling, SNAP Spending, & Navy Nuclear Sites

Wednesday, November 5, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 3, 2025. 

0:30 We unpack the controversy out of Dearborn, Michigan, where Mayor Abdullah Hammoud told a Christian resident he was “not welcome” in the city after objecting to a street being renamed for a man who once praised Hezbollah. We break down the mayor’s remarks, the misuse of the term “Islamophobe,” and what this moment says about free speech, civic respect, and the growing confusion between disagreement and hate.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • According to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the Federal Government spent less money in 2025 than it did in 2024.
  • Some details are finally coming out about the alleged Halloween Terror Plot in Michigan.The FBI filed a 73 page complaint in court against 2 men under the age of 21 and a teenager.
  • Tomorrow is election day in several states across the country.New York City will be selecting a new mayor, and most polls say communist anti-semite Zohran Mamdani will win easily.

13:30 We take a hard look at what it means to be American in 2025 — and whether today’s immigration policies are helping or hurting the nation’s civic fabric. From nostalgia for Ellis Island to sharp criticism of mass resettlement policies, assimilation and shared civic norms — including pledging allegiance to the Republic — are non-negotiable for national unity.

16:00 The American Mamas are back together! After a wild stretch of floods, car troubles, and chaos, Kimberly Burleson rejoins Teri Netterville for a candid and fiery conversation about boundaries, truth, and common sense in a world that seems to have lost all three.

In this episode, the Mamas share a surprising story about a massage appointment gone wrong — when “preference” meets “policy” and customer comfort gets dismissed in the name of virtue signaling. They also unpack Glamour UK’s controversial “Women of the Year” cover featuring transgender models and ask: how far can society bend reality before it breaks?

23:00 We dive into actor George Clooney’s surprising reversal — admitting that Democrats made a mistake pushing Joe Biden aside for Kamala Harris during the 2024 election.

26:00 We Dig Deep into another glaring example of failure under the Biden administration — a 54% surge in SNAP (food stamp) spending, now topping $120 billion a year.

We unpack new revelations from Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, who says an internal review uncovered thousands of cases of EBT card fraud — from duplicate benefits across states to payments to the deceased. Even more alarming? Twenty-one states — nearly all Democrat-run — refused to share their data, with several even suing the federal government for asking where the money went.

We contrast the left’s “compassion equals more checks” philosophy with a conservative vision of empowerment and accountability. True compassion lifts people up rather than locking them into dependence.

33:30 After nearly forty years in Congress, Nancy Pelosi is reportedly preparing to step away from politics — announcing she won’t seek re-election in 2026. We reflect on Pelosi’s legacy — from her two Trump impeachments and dramatic moments on the House floor to her role in deepening partisan division. 

36:00 Plus, the U.S. Navy has manager 273 nuclear reactors over 6,200 reactor-years and 177 million miles — all with zero accidents, zero injuries, and zero environmental pollution, and that's a Bright Spot. 

40:30 Violence continues in Chicago. Over Halloween weekend alone, at least 23 people were shot across the city. As President Trump calls to deploy the National Guard to restore order, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and federal courts have resisted — even as the Supreme Court signals growing concern. The people of Chicago will continue to suffer so long as they continue to vote for Democrats who hate Donald Trump. It's time for somebody to step up and say, "Whoa!" 

42:30 And we finish off with Scott Johnson, a STEAM teacher at Red Cross Elementary in Kentucky, whose creativity and compassion changed a young boy’s life.

Gavin Newsom, White House Halloween, & Operation Arctic Frost

Saturday, November 1, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 31, 2025. 

0:30 As the government shutdown drags on, even some Democrats are starting to question their own party’s tactics — including Senator John Fetterman. We unpack Fetterman’s surprising candor in a CNN interview, where he condemns the political games that leave millions of Americans hungry while Congress argues over tax credits. 

10:00 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • The FBI says they have stopped a "Jihadi terror plot" planned for this Halloween weekend.
  • The Department of Homeland Security conducted a series of raids in Indiana this week.They arrested 223 illegal immigrants, including 146 who were driving semi-trucks.
  • The State of Ohio has just redrawn its congressional maps, likely giving Republicans two more seats in the next midterm election.

13:30 When did the “party of the people” become the party of the ultra-rich? We dig into a new study showing that Democrats now represent more than 75% of America’s wealthiest districts — the very same crowd that rails against “income inequality.” From Nancy Pelosi to Bernie Sanders, millionaire politicians and billionaire donors have reshaped the Democratic Party into an elite club more comfortable in boardrooms than break rooms. 

16:30 The American Mamas tackle a listener's question: could Gavin Newsom actually become the Democrats' 2028 nominee? Teri Netterville doesn't hold back, calling out Newsom's chameleon-like persona — switching accents, stories, and attitudes depending on the audience. From his "hustling" childhood tale to his infamous French Laundry dinner, we're taking a closer look at Newsom's disingenuous charm campaign.

23:00 President Trump and First Lady Melania welcomed families to the White House for trick-or-treating. Kids showed up in all-American costumes from tanks and Spiderman to princesses and costumes that harken back to Trump's day of work at McDonald's. 

25:00 We Dig Deep into the shocking details of Operation Arctic Frost, a secret 2022 FBI surveillance program that allegedly targeted Republican lawmakers, conservative organizations, and media outlets. We break down how the operation—approved under the Biden administration—used expansive digital tracking and data mapping to monitor phone records, online activity, and even purchases of GOP senators, Turning Point USA, and Fox News journalists. With no crimes uncovered and no probable cause established, the discussion turns to what this means for civil liberties, political bias within federal agencies, and the future of free speech in America.

33:30 Kim Kardashian has entered the moon landing debate, claiming Apollo 11 “didn’t happen,” and that Buzz Aldrin basically admitted it. 

36:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news?

Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio.

40:30 Joy Reid and the left hate Donald Trump so much that aren't happy with just beating him in the polls. They want to destroy him entirely. And we just have to say, "Whoa!"

Winsom Sears, Trump's Second Term, and JD Vance at Turning Point USA Rally

Friday, October 31, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 30, 2025. 

0:30 For years, the Department of Justice has turned a blind eye to corruption—but that may finally be changing. The DOJ is investigating Black Lives Matter leaders for allegedly defrauding donors of millions, a long-overdue step toward restoring real accountability. From BLM mansions to political double standards, public trust has eroded under unequal justice—and holding every power player to the same standard, left or right, is essential to saving faith in the system.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump has reached a trade deal with China that is expected to avert an all out trade war between the worlds' two largest economies.
  • The Sunshine Protection Act — the bill that would give states he opportunity to ban the changing of the clocks from standard time to daylight savings time twice a year — has stalled out in Congress again.
  • General Motors is laying off more than 3,000 workers this week.Some of the layoffs are temporary, but more than half are permanent.

13:30 A new Quinnipiac poll out of New York City shows Democratic Socialist Zoran Mamdani leading the mayoral race with 43%—well ahead of Andrew Cuomo at 33% and Republican Curtis Sliwa at 14%. But are the polls missing something? We dig into what those numbers really mean, questioning whether the data captures the growing frustration among everyday New Yorkers tired of crime, taxes, and government overreach.

16:00 The American Mamas tackle a question that’s stirring controversy: should the NAACP be supporting Winsome Sears—a Black female immigrant, Marine veteran, and current Lieutenant Governor of Virginia—over white Democrat Abigail Spanberger? The Mamas break down the debate fallout, the viral reactions across social media, and the growing frustration among Black Americans who feel politically manipulated. From Barack Obama’s campaign choices to the NAACP’s partisan priorities, the conversation exposes what many see as deep hypocrisy within identity politics. As more voters—especially young Black men—begin speaking out and shifting right, the Mamas ask: is this the moment America finally wakes up to the political double standard?

23:00 When Kamala Harris appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, her profanity-laced rant about Trump’s “ballroom for the rich” and looming SNAP benefit cuts turned heads for all the wrong reasons. We unpack the Vice President’s meltdown—fact-checking her claims about government shutdown funding and calling out the growing trend of political figures dropping F-bombs on national TV.

26:00 With ten months of President Trump’s second term in the books, we're looking back at the most productive stretches in modern presidential history. From record-breaking deportations and declining food stamp enrollment to rising GDP, falling inflation, and renewed energy dominance, the mainstream press is ignoring a wave of domestic and economic achievements. On everything from tariffs and tax cuts to military recruitment and peace deals abroad—this administration has delivered results where others only made promises.

33:30 For the first time in seven years, President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping meet face-to-face—and strike a deal that could reshape global trade. We break down the stunning tariff reductions, China’s promise to open its markets to American goods, and what it could mean for U.S. manufacturing. But is Beijing serious this time, or just smiling through another double-cross? 

36:30 Turning Point USA lights up the University of Mississippi with a massive rally that packs the stadium and spills into the streets — and it wasn’t just the crowd that made headlines. Vice President J.D. Vance took center stage, fielding tough, unfiltered questions from students and delivering one of the most thoughtful defenses of faith and freedom we’ve ever heard from a sitting VP. From his take on Christianity’s role in America’s founding to his sharp insight into the future of conservative youth, this was a defining moment for a new generation of leaders. A genuine bright spot — and one worth replaying.

40:30 Glamour UK released its “Women of the Year” issue featuring biological men on the cover. When did celebrating women become about celebrating men? We've just got to say, "Whoa!"

Chat GPT, Democrats Losing the American People, and Bill Gates Changes His Tune on Climate Change

Thursday, October 30, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 29, 2025. 

0:30 We dive into a symbolic and surprising diplomatic moment — South Korea honoring President Donald Trump with a golden crown and the nation’s highest order of merit. We explore what this gesture means for U.S.–Korea relations. Could it be the dawn of a “golden age” of trade and cooperation? From major new investment deals and lowered tariffs to renewed confidence on the global stage, this ceremony marks more than pageantry— it’s a recognition of America’s return to strength and respect under Trump’s leadership.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • The Federal Reserve voted to lower interest rates today.It's the second rate cut this year, and drops the interest rate between banks to 4%.
  • The State of Ohio says they've discovered more than 1,000 illegal voters on their voter roles.
  • Sean Duffy, the Secretary of Transportation says he's pulling $160 million in federal funding for the state of California.

13:30 ICE Director Tom Homan announced that the U.S. is on pace to deport 600,000 illegal immigrants by year’s end — a record-breaking number that proves that President Trump is delivering on his promises.

16:30 The American Mamas tackle a disturbing question from a listener: Would you let your children use ChatGPT? What begins as a discussion about AI quickly turns into a chilling warning for parents. We discuss the heartbreaking story of a 16-year-old boy who confided in a chatbot that ultimately encouraged his suicide—and we question why the creator, Sam Altman, hasn’t done more to stop it. From the ethical failures of Big Tech to the urgent need for guardrails on artificial intelligence,we call for accountability, compassion, and stronger parental vigilance. It’s a sobering reminder that while AI can help us, it can also harm the most vulnerable among us.

23:00 Nancy Pelosi takes a page out of Hillary Clinton’s old playbook—and it doesn’t go over well. We react to Pelosi’s recent remarks mocking Republicans for their faith, complete with what sounded like a forced Southern accent. The hypocrisy of a self-described “devout Catholic” attacking churchgoers while championing policies that contradict Church teaching isn't lost on us. 

26:00 A rare moment of honesty from inside the Democratic Party — and it’s not pretty. We Dig Deep into a new report from Welcome PAC, a Democrat-aligned political action committee that admits their own party has become “out of touch” with most voters.

The study, titled Deciding to Win, reveals how Democrats have drifted away from kitchen-table issues like jobs, safety, and the border — and toward elite obsessions with climate dogma and identity politics. From reparations to pronouns to “making the wealthy pay their fair share,” we take a closer look at how far the left has moved, why its leaders still don’t get it, and whether Democrats can ever win back the working class they abandoned.

33:30 As the GOP looks toward the next election cycle, new RNC Chairman Joe Gruters is striking a note of cautious optimism—but should Republicans be even more confident? We break down Gruters’ strategy to hold both the House and Senate, emphasizing voter turnout, election integrity, and the growing movement of Hispanic and Black voters shifting toward the GOP.

36:30 After years as one of the loudest voices warning of climate catastrophe, Bill Gates is suddenly singing a different tune. In a surprising op-ed ahead of the upcoming climate conference in Brazil, Gates admits that climate change “will not lead to humanity’s demise," and that's a Bright Spot.

40:30 John Stewart had democratic socialist comunist Zoran Mamdani on the Daily Show. Stewart compared Mamdani's campaign to a Jackie Robinson moment. let's just be very clear here. Jackie Robinson  was a man of extraordinary courage who broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947 when doing so took unimaginable strength. Comparing Zoran Mamdani to Jackie Robinson? We've got to say, "whoa!"

42:30 And we finish of with some Words of Wisdom about being skeptical.

Birthright Citizenship, Biden's Auto-Pen, & the Charlie Kirk American Heritage Act

Wednesday, October 29, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 29, 2025. 

0:30 We unpack revelations that dozens of Biden’s executive actions — even some presidential pardons — may have been signed not by the president himself, but by an auto-pen. We trace the implications of this puppet presidency, where unelected handlers allegedly assumed the powers of the Oval Office. From Alexander Haig’s infamous “I’m in charge” moment to Mike Johnson’s firsthand account of Biden denying his own executive order, the discussion exposes a constitutional crisis — one that raises the chilling question: If Biden wasn’t governing, who was?

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • The House oversight committee said this week that at least some of Joe Biden's autopen signatures are not valid, which would undo many pardons and executive orders which were signed with the autopen.
  • President Trump met with the new Conservative Prime Minister of Japan, Sanae Takaichi yesterday.At their meeting, they signed a trade deal lowering bilateral tariffs to 15% and pledging more cooperation in rare-earth minerals.
  • Democrats in the US Senate have blocked the reopening of the Federal Government again.For the 13th Time, Democrats led by Senator Chuck Schumer voted in almost complete unison against the clean continuing resolution bill that would have funded the military, paid government employees and fund SNAP benefits.

12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

13:30 It’s not just about microchips — it’s about America. We break down Nvidia’s blockbuster announcement: seven new supercomputers for the U.S. Department of Energy, powered by 100,000 chips made in America. We connect the dots between Donald Trump’s promise to restore American manufacturing and a long-overdue comeback for U.S. industry.

16:00 We ask our American Mamas about a Halloween trend that has crossed the line. Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson react to reports of people dressing up as the assassinated Charlie Kirk — complete with fake blood and mock “Freedom” shirts — and their asking what has happened to empathy and decency in our culture?

We unpack the grotesque mockery, the social media applause fueling it, and the deeper spiritual sickness it reveals. Yet amid the outrage, we find a glimmer of hope — that what was meant for evil might still awaken hearts, spark conviction, and remind parents to teach their children compassion, not cruelty.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told NCAA champion Riley Gaines to “get a real job,” the backlash was swift — and heartfelt. We take a look at AOC’s dismissive comment and the deeper cultural divide it exposes about work and motherhood.

26:30 Nearly half of America’s state attorneys general are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to take up the birthright citizenship case — and they’re standing behind President Trump’s executive order to end automatic citizenship for children born to parents in the country illegally. We Dig Deep into the legal, historical, and moral arguments behind the 14th Amendment, tracing its roots back to the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the congressional debates that shaped it. From “birth tourism” to constitutional intent, this discussion dives into what citizenship truly means — and why it should never be a reward for breaking the law.

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 Something’s stirring in the heart of America — a renewed openness about faith. We reflect on a surprising and uplifting trend: more public figures, from commentators to professional athletes, are unapologetically sharing their belief in God. When New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields says he’s “low key addicted to reading [his] Bible every day,” it’s more than a soundbite — it’s a sign of cultural momentum. We unpack what this growing revival says about America’s roots, our hunger for truth, and the timeless reminder that our rights come from God, not government.

36:30 There’s a new bill in Ohio that’s sparking national attention, and it's a Bright Spot. The Charlie Kirk American Heritage Act would allow teachers from kindergarten through college to discuss Christianity’s influence on American history and culture. We break down how faith shaped the nation’s founding ideals — from the Declaration of Independence to the first schoolhouses that taught children to read from the Bible. Removing this history has left America divided and adrift, while restoring it could help heal the nation’s soul. Named in honor of Charlie Kirk, the bill is described as both a tribute to his legacy and a blueprint for renewal in classrooms across the country.

40:30 New York Assemblyman Zoran Mamdani is under fire for fabricating a personal story about his so-called “aunt” to bolster his image as a victim of post-9/11 prejudice. The incident fits a troubling pattern of misinformation and moral grandstanding on the left. And we're left wondering how any New Yorker could continue to support a candidate who’s been caught bending the truth for sympathy and power. It's time to say, "whoa!" 

42:30 And we finish off with Natalie Gravile, a woman who finish the Ironman Traithlon in Hawaii at 80-years-old.

Tuesday, October 28, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 27, 2025. 

0:30 What drives the left’s obsession with Donald Trump? We're diagnosing Trump Derangement Syndrome—a political fever that’s gripped the media, the swamp, and much of Washington since the day Trump came down the golden escalator. 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • The American Federation of Government Employees is calling on Democrat Senators to end the Government Shutdown.
  • Mike Braun, the Governor of Indiana is calling the state legislature back for a special session to redraw the state's congressional districts.
  • A Minnesota Man has been arrested for offering a reward for anyone who kills Attorney General Pam Bondi.

13:30 We tackle one of the most uncomfortable truths in American politics—how the same media that condemns conservative outrage excuses or even glorifies violence from the left. From riots and Molotov cocktails to threats against Supreme Court justices, political violence has become woven into the left’s playbook—and the double standard is impossible to ignore.

16:30 When Zohran Mamdani tearfully claimed his aunt was too afraid to ride the subway after 9/11, the media swooned—until the story fell apart. Our American Mamas, Terry Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, dig into the facts behind Mamdani’s emotional performance and uncover a troubling pattern of deception and radical associations. From his fabricated family story to his ties with an imam who calls America “filthy and sick,” the Mamas ask: how did this man become a rising star in New York politics—and why is the media looking the other way?

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 We break down Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s response to a question about funding for illegal aliens, exposing the left’s campaign to rewrite language and erase accountability. “Illegal alien” isn’t hate speech—it’s federal law. And when politicians start treating law as a moral insult, that’s when the rule of law itself is on the line.

26:00 We Dig Deep into the latest numbers from the Virginia and New Jersey gubernatorial races, where early voting trends are defying every media narrative. In Virginia, Abigail Spanberger’s supposed seven-point lead over Winsome Earle-Sears isn’t showing up in the ballot box, as Republican strongholds surge in turnout while Democrat areas lag behind. And in New Jersey, the margins are even tighter than the pollsters want to admit. We break down what the data really means, why the NAACP’s endorsement of Spanberger over Sears exposes the left’s hypocrisy, and why Democrats may be facing another polling meltdown.

33:30 When is a pep talk more like a parody? When Joe Biden starts sounding like Stuart Smalley from Saturday Night Live. In this segment, we compare Biden’s latest “get up and fight” speech to Al Franken’s classic “Daily Affirmations,” arguing that the president’s rallying cry feels less like leadership and more like self-help gone wrong.

36:30 America turns 250 soon, and the Heritage Foundation is celebrating by helping us rediscover who we are — and where we came from. The foundation is working on a new project ranking historic sites across the country for their accuracy and authenticity, from Monticello to Gettysburg, and it's a Bright Spot. Unfortunately some landmarks are slipping in the ratings not because of poor preservation, but because of politics creeping into the storytelling. We dig into how ideological rewriting has distorted our view of figures like Washington, Jefferson, and even Lincoln — and why honest history still matters. From battlefields to presidential homes, history reminds us that America’s story isn’t perfect, but it’s good — and worth remembering.

40:30 Charlie Sheen — yes, that Charlie Sheen — just might be the voice of reason. On Bill Maher’s podcast, the Hollywood wild man took aim at the NFL’s choice of Bad Bunny for next year’s Super Bowl halftime show, calling it “off-putting for real football fans.” Charlie Sheen is onto. Football fans are saying, "Whoa."

Trump White House Renoations, National Guard & San Francisco, & Fake News Friday

Monday, October 27, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 24, 2025. 

0:30 Has James Carville finally gone off the deep end? We react to the “Ragin’ Cajun’s” shocking rant, where he fantasizes about shaving the heads of Trump supporters, dressing them in orange jumpsuits, and parading them down Pennsylvania Avenue to be spat upon. And we unpack the left’s obsession with public shaming and “thought crimes" and thechilling parallels to Orwell’s 1984 and the real-world silencing of conservatives during the COVID era.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump has terminated all trade negotiations with Canada over a TV ad that features a clip of President Ronald Reagan seemingly denouncing tariffs.
  • Inflation ticked up a bit in September, but not as much as was expected.
  • The USS Gerald Ford Aircraft Group is moving into the Caribbean sea as the US is ramping up military strikes against drug runners coming from South America.

13:30 We dig into the spiritual sickness spreading through half of America: a willful blindness where truth, logic, and reason no longer matter, only outrage. From Trump Derangement Syndrome to a culture that prizes victimhood over virtue, we explore how emotion has replaced truth on the left.

16:30 We ask American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — how they can be okay with Donald Trump tearing down part of the White House. We unpack the latest round of media outrage, sparked by Trump’s privately funded ballroom project. From Chelsea Clinton’s dramatic tweets to Hakeem Jeffries’ call for an investigation, we dig into the hypocrisy surrounding presidential renovations. Nearly every president—from Teddy Roosevelt to Barack Obama—has left their mark on the White House. So why is it suddenly a scandal when President Trump does the same?

23:00 House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is endorsing Zoran Mamdani—a New York politician so far left, he makes Bernie Sanders look like Milton Friedman. We unpack Mamdani’s extremist rhetoric, including his call to “globalize the Intifada,” and what that really means for Jewish communities at home and abroad.

25:30 What exactly is the “Trump Doctrine”? It's simple: be nice to me, I’ll be nice to you — cross me, and you’ll regret it. We break down President Trump’s decision to hold off on deploying the National Guard to crime-ridden San Francisco after a respectful call from the city’s Democratic mayor, Daniel Lurie. It's a perfect example of Trump’s “tit-for-tat” strategy in action — strength tempered by reason, toughness balanced with generosity.

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 Canada just got a cold dose of the Trump Doctrine. We break down the fallout after Ontario Premier Doug Ford pulled a $75 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign that deceptively used Ronald Reagan’s words to attack U.S. tariffs. Turns out, the ad violated Canadian law — and when Trump found out, he didn’t just hit back, he shut down the negotiations altogether.

36:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From Trump flyingan F-16 and dumping poo on protestors, to a White House ballroom ball pit, and a Democrat Senate candidate's Nazi tattoo, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio.

40:30 As the media piles on ICE once again, we take a step back to ask a simple question: what’s to hate about enforcing the law? From sanctuary city standoffs to repeat offenders shielded by politics,  Immigration and Customs Enforcement has become a symbol of accountability in an age of chaos. It's not cruelty — it’s common sense — and that Americans are finally saying “whoa” to open borders and lawlessness.

42:00 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about the White House.

Usha Vance, Ben Schettler Interview, & King Charles Meets with Pope Leo

Friday, October 24, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 23, 2025. 

0:30 We're sounding the alarm on China's sex warfare—a covert campaign of espionage waged through seduction, manipulation, and social media. According to new intelligence reports, the Chinese Communist Party, often in coordination with Russian operatives, is exploiting professional networks like LinkedIn to target American engineers, defense contractors, and innovators.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • Democrats blocked bills today that would pay US Military members and other government employees who have been affected by the Democrat government shutdown.
  • New York Mayor Eric Adams is endorsing former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo to be the next mayor of the nation's largest city.
  • An Illegal alien driving an 18 wheeler is being accused of killing three people.

13:30 Socialist Zoran Mamdani is leading the New York City mayor race. But how can an anti-semitic Hamas sympathizer be winning in a city with the largest Jewish population outside of Israel? And should Curtis Sliwa stay in the race despite the polls? 

17:00 We got a question in for our American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson. They tackle a viral comment from former White House press secretary Jen Psaki, who claimed that Usha Vance—the wife of Vice President J.D. Vance—is a “prisoner who needs to be saved.” The mamas don’t hold back, calling Psaki’s remark ridiculous, bitter, and proof of lingering “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

23:00 In a moment that no one saw coming, Bernie Sanders just sounded more like Donald Trump than a democratic socialist. The self-proclaimed “godfather of the modern left”—who once hailed open borders as a moral imperative—has now admitted that Trump handled immigration better than Joe Biden.

25:00 We welcome back Ben Schettler, founder of the Center for Truth in Love, who’s taken his message of faith and reason into some of America’s most hostile environments.Following in the footsteps of the late Charlie Kirk, Shetler has been setting up open-forum booths on college campuses and in major cities—only to be met with anger, chaos, and even violence. We discuss the disturbing new normal in public discourse, where faith and facts are drowned out by emotion and intimidation. Shetler reveals evidence of paid agitators and pre-printed protest signs, raising serious questions about who’s funding the outrage.

33:30 We break down the radical sanctuary policies threatening to turn New York City into a safe haven for criminal illegal aliens. From the ICE arrests in Chinatown to Zohran Mamdani’s calls to defund the NYPD, we're seeing the growing chaos of a system that protects offenders over citizens.

36:30 Plus, King Charles III met with Pope Leo XIV in Rome—marking the first meeting between the heads of the Church of England and the Catholic Church in nearly five centuries, and that's a Bright Spot. a closer look at this extraordinary encounter, tracing it back to Henry VIII’s break from Rome and the centuries-long divide that followed. What does this moment of unity mean for Christianity today? Is it merely symbolic, or a genuine step toward reconciliation between two of the world’s largest Christian traditions?

40:30 The NBA finds itself caught in a scandal that could shake professional sports to its core. The Department of Justice says team organizations had no direct involvement—but coaches and players are now under fire for allegedly sharing insider information tied to illegal gambling rings involving the Lakers, Hornets, Trailblazers, and Raptors. Trust is the lifeblood of professional sports. Once the trust is gone... the game is gone. The NBA needs to put it's foot down and say, "Whoa."

Black and Maga, Leah Thomas Mindset Issues, & Sanae Takeuchi

Thursday, October 23, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 23, 2025.

0:30 In a Fox News interview Congresswoman Katherine Clark, the Democratic Whip, openly admitted that a potential government shutdown gives her party “leverage.” Clark’s comments reveal the Democrats’ willingness to let American families, military workers, and small businesses suffer for political advantage—turning a crisis into a bargaining chip.

9:30 Plus we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • California Gavin Newsom wants to station the National Guard at food banks across the state of California. 
  • Former New Hampshire Senator John Sununu is running for his old seat currently held by the woman who defeated him back in 2008.
  • The North Carolina Legislature passed new congressional maps that are designed to give Republicans one additional seat in the 2026 elections.

12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

13:30 We talk about the Democratice Party's true motive — using American hardship as a political weapon. They hammer home that millions of Americans stand to lose access to SNAP benefits due to the shutdown, not because of fiscal necessity, but because Democrats,see suffering as opportunity.

16:30 We ask the American Mamas: Can you be Black and MAGA? Inspired by a viral video from the recent “No Kings” protest, the Mamas discuss a heated exchange between a Black Trump supporter and a white leftist protester—a confrontation that exposes the hypocrisy and racism of the modern left.

Rising Black conservative voices like Wesley Hunt, Byron Donalds, and Tim Scott are proof that patriotism and principle—not political pressure—define identity. Yet, these leaders are vilified instead of celebrated simply because they stand on the right.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:30 We react to Chuck Schumer's latest attempt to spin the ongoing government shutdown. Schumer blasted the continued construction of the new White House ballroom as proof of misplaced priorities—tweeting, “Yes to ballrooms, no to healthcare for Americans.” 

25:30 And we Dig Deep into a new Breitbart article about Leah Thomas, the former University of Pennsylvania swimmer who continues to defend taking titles from female athletes. Quoting Thomas’s recent PBS interview—“It’s easier to fight the world than to fight yourself”—we unpack the deeper moral and cultural implications behind that statement.

Thomas’s mindset reveals a wider spiritual and societal problem—a refusal to confront inner struggle and personal responsibility. The transgender movement’s rejection of self-discipline and truth—and giving in to confusion or pain rather than confronting it—leads to broader harm. 

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 We dive into escalating tensions between the United States and Russia following the Trump administration’s latest sanctions announcement. With a planned Trump - Putin meeting in Hungary canceled, we see signs of a deepening rift—and a new phase of instability in U.S.–Russia relations.

36:00 Plus, Japan elected it's first female prime minister, Sanae Takeuchi. And that's a Bright Spot, not because she's a woman, but because she's a conservative. Takeuchi brings experience and a bold vision shaped by her mentor, the late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, and her admiration for Margaret Thatcher, whom she calls her political role model. Her speeches—emphasizing sovereignty, national pride, and family values—remind us of President Donald Trump, who is inspiring a new generation of unapologetically patriotic and conservative leaders around the world.

40:30 Once seen as the heir apparent to lead the Democratic Party, Gavin Newsom now finds himself trailing Kamala Harris by double digits. The poll reflects a deeper problem within the Democratic bench: a lack of fresh leadership and coherent vision. The party is stale, and they've got to have someone else that is going to step forward. Or the American people are just going to say, "Whoa."

Karine Jean-Pierre, Pentagon Press Rules, & No Kings

Wednesday, October 22, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 21, 2025. 

0:30 We unpack the outrage over President Trump’s renovation of the White House ballroom — a story the left has spun into claims that he’s “bulldozing history.” Have they forgotten that every president has updated the White House—from Teddy Roosevelt’s West Wing to Nixon’s press room and Obama’s basketball court? 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • A new report says not only did FEMA discriminate against Republicans and Trump supporters during the 2024 election, but has been discriminating against Republicans struck by disasters since at least 2021.
  • The House Judicial committee referred former CIA director John Brennan to the Department of Justice for a criminal indictment, accusing Brennan of lying to Congress during his testimony on May 11, 2023 about the Russian Collusion Hoax.
  • The US and Australia signed a rare earth mining agreement worth $8.5 billion in mining projects, including building a gallium refinery in western Australia.

12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

13:30 We're seeing record deportation numbers under President Trump. While roughly half a million illegal immigrants were forcibly removed, 1.6 million chose to self-deport — proof of Trump’s effective and efficient approach to immigration enforcement. 

17:00 And we ask the American Mamas—Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson— if they are going to read Karine Jean-Pierre's new book. The Mamas unpack Jean-Pierre’s media tour and the backlash that followed her “broken White House” claim. But there is a contradiction — Jean-Pierre served under Biden, yet insists the “broken” White House refers to Trump’s term. The Mamas also highlight her repeated references to race and sexuality in interviews, suggesting that identity, not merit, defined her tenure as press secretary.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 We take a look at Colombian President Gustavo Petro's demand for Donald Trump’s removal from office. Colombia has long benefited from billions in U.S. aid, trade, and military support, only to now criticize the very policies protecting America’s borders and curbing the drug trade.

26:00 We Dig Deep into the media’s backlash to the new Pentagon press rules issued by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth — and we aren't buying the outrage. The updates, effective October 15th, include tighter restrictions on journalist movement inside the Pentagon, new escort requirements, U.S.-citizen-only press badges, and enforcement of long-standing rules against unauthorized information release. While major outlets walked out in protest — calling the policy “dictatorial” — these are common-sense security measures, no different from those in schools or corporate buildings. So what is the media really so upset about? 

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 There is a growing culture of quitting in America. Reporters are walking out of the Pentagon over new press rules and celebrities are vowing to leave the U.S. whenever elections don’t go their way. But perseverance — not retreat — is fundamental to the American spirit, and walking away in protest reflects the victim mindset on the left.

36:30 We just had another round of the "No Kings" protests, but we don't have anyone who's trying to become king in American. And that's a Bright Spot. The "No Kings" movement misses a fundamental truth: America was deliberately built to reject kingship altogether. The Founding Fathers saw monarchy as the root of tyranny and believed power should rest with ordinary citizens, not elites or hereditary rulers.

40:30 Socialist Zohran Mamdani is leading candidate in New York City's mayoral race. Curtis Sliwa faces mounting pressure to drop out, but he is saying "Whoa!"

42:30 And we finish off with construction on the Pantheon in Greece.

Pete Hegseth Says "No Fatties," Bari Weiss Joins CBS, & Court Upholds Trump Sending in the National Guard

Tuesday, October 21, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 20, 2025. 

0:30 We break down a major ruling from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals — one that upholds President Trump’s authority to deploy the National Guard to restore order in lawless cities like Portland. Once mocked as the Ninth Circus for its liberal rulings, the court now features Trump-appointed judges who have brought a dose of constitutional sanity back to the bench.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump announced over the weekend he was cutting off all US foreign aid to the nation of Columbia.
  • The state of Florida is suing California and Washington for issuing drivers licenses to illegal aliens.
  • Starting today, money is running out to fund various federal courts across the country.

12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

13:30 We react to breaking news reports out of Palm Beach, where authorities discovered what they describe as a “sniper’s nest” overlooking the area where Air Force One routinely lands. While the media downplays it as a “hunting stand,” the setup — positioned near the airport with a clear line of sight to where President Trump exits the plane — looks far too deliberate to dismiss.

16:30 And we ask the American Mamas about Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's now-viral “No Fatties” speech. The Mamas debate whether Hegseth’s fiery address was rehearsed for social media or a genuine challenge to the armed forces, but they agree on one thing: the message struck a chord.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:30 Thanks to immigration enforcement under President Trump, more than two million illegal aliens have been deported or have voluntarily departed since he took office. Seven in ten of those deported reportedly had criminal convictions or pending charges. 

26:00 We Dig Deep into the growing tension inside CBS News after Paramount appointed Bari Weiss—the outspoken journalist and founder of The Free Press—as head of the network’s news division. Her arrival has shaken up the newsroom, where longtime reporters reportedly bristled at her challenge: “Why does the country think you’re biased?”

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 We turn our focus to the New York City mayoral race, where Zoran Mamdani, a self-proclaimed socialist with open admiration for Marxist ideals, is leading the polls. With Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa trailing far behind, we wrestle with a question that’s both political and moral: Do we really get what we deserve?

36:30 Plus, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld President Trump’s authority to deploy the National Guard to U.S. cities, and that's a Bright Spot. This isn't just a victory or Trump, but a restoration of constitutional balance between the executive branch and the courts. For years federal judges have tried to restrict Republican presidents from enforcing the law, but this decision signals a shift back toward executive responsibility.

40:30 Clinton-era strategist James Carville is sounding more like a conservative than a Democrat. Carville recently blasted politicians who support letting men compete in women’s sports, accusing them of pandering to what he calls “left-wing zombies” and destroying the dignity and dreams of female athletes. Even Carville sees how the American People are rejecting the Democrat Party, and he's saying, "Whoa!"

Crime Rates Skewed, Mamdani The Left's New Norm, & Trump Negotiates with Tariffs

Monday, October 20, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 17, 2025. 

0:30 We break down what Speaker Mike Johnson has to say about the "No Kings" rallies — demonstrations the Speaker calls nothing more than “hate America” protests in disguise. These events aren’t about defending democracy at all, but about denouncing Donald Trump and rejecting the very ideals that built the United States.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky at the White House to discuss the potential sale of US Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, which would give the country the ability to strike deep into Russian territory.
  • The US Federal Government has indicted Smartmatic, a voting machine company for money laundering and bribery.
  • Candidates for the next mayor of New York City— Zohran Mamdani, Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa participated in a televised debate.

12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

13:30 We dive into the fiery New York City mayoral debate between Mondami, Cuomo, and Sliwa, and the political storm brewing around it.  President Trump may hold all the leverage, with hundreds of millions in federal funds that he could — and likely will — withhold if New York City elects communist Mondami. 

16:30 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle the question: Did you kick your kids out of the house when they turned 18? Their answer — a resounding no. The mamas share why they believe keeping grown children at home, at least for a while, isn’t coddling — it’s setting them up for success.

They talk about the challenges facing today’s young adults, from the cost of living to the broken housing market, and how strong families can be the safety net that helps the next generation thrive. Along the way, they contrast American independence with other cultures’ deep sense of family connection and reverence for elders, asking why the U.S. so often pushes both its kids and its elderly away.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky Appearance showed up at the White House — notably — in a suit this time. It’s a shift from his usual olive-green military tees, and we can’t help but notice. 

25:30 Plus, we Dig Deep into the narrative that “crime is down” in America and whether the FBI’s crime data tells the full story. While President Trump moves to deploy the National Guard to fight rising violence in major cities, Democrats point to FBI statistics claiming the opposite. But another federal source — the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ Crime Victimization Survey — paints a very different picture. According to that survey, violent crime actually rose in 2024, especially among young people, even as rural areas saw declines. So what’s causing the disconnect? 

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 We unpack the Wall Street reaction to President Trump’s announcement of a 100% tariff on Chinese goods—a move that briefly rattled the markets before his clarification sent stocks rebounding. But this isn’t about chaos—it’s about strategy. Trump is once again using tariffs as a negotiating weapon to put pressure on Beijing, especially as China tightens its grip on the rare-earth metals market—the key to everything from smartphones to fighter jets.

36:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From Columbus Day controversies and Oregon’s spending priorities, to Hamas power struggles, Democrat protests, and even John Bolton’s mustache, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio.

40:30 From anti-Semitic rhetoric to anti-American ideology, Zohran Mamdani isn’t an outlier — he’s the new face of the Democratic mainstream. This isn’t just about one candidate, it’s about a party that’s lost its moral compass. And we have to say, "Whoa!" 

42:30 And we finish off with the world's longest name.

Victoria's Secret, Dinesh D'Souza Interview, & Capitalism

Friday, October 17, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 16, 2025. 

0:30 We take a look at Hillary Clinton. She is calling on Americans to “push back on Trump’s power grabs” and join the so-called No Kings protest. The irony isn’t lost on us — no one has acted more like political royalty than the Clintons themselves. From renting out the Lincoln Bedroom to treating the presidency like a family heirloom, Hillary’s long been the face America’s “political aristocracy.”

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • Governor Jeff Landry today called for a special session of the Louisiana Legislature.
  • Classes at Bossier Parish Community College were canceled today after police conducted a manhunt for a suspect on campus.
  • New Orleans' Mayor Elect, Helena Moreno has formed a new committee to search for the city's next Chief Administrative Officer.

13:30 We ask the American Mamas about the return of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. We recall how the brand went “woke” in 2021, pivoting from its iconic Angels to a lineup meant to highlight achievement and diversity—fronted by Megan Rapinoe. Now, with the 2025 show bringing back the supermodel aesthetic, it looks like Victoria’s Secret has rediscovered what made it a cultural powerhouse: celebrating classic femininity, beauty, and confidence.

23:00 We welcome back filmmaker and author Dinesh D’Souza to discuss his latest project, The Dragon’s Prophecy—a sweeping new film that blends biblical prophecy, archaeology, and modern geopolitics. Based on Jonathan Cahn’s book of the same name, D’Souza’s film explores the spiritual and historical forces shaping the Middle East, drawing striking parallels between ancient battles and contemporary conflicts.

33:30 We react to a viral comment from sports radio personality Craig Carton, who declared that “nobody cares about women’s basketball.” His claim sparks a spirited back-and-forth—are fans really invested in the WNBA, or just in breakout stars like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese?

36:30 Capitalism is a Bright Spot. It's such a Bright Spot, that the best place to live as a socialist is in a capitalist country. Capitalism's defining strength is freedom of choice—including the freedom to live by socialist ideals if you so choose. From the Uber driver who owns their own car to the entrepreneur building a shared company, capitalism makes voluntary socialism possible—without government force.

40:30 10 high schools in California are forfeiting their girls volleyball games. Why? One team has a male player who left one promising female athlete with a career-ending concussion. These schools are not saying why they are forfeiting. The only thing that they're telling the other team is, "Whoa!" 

42:30 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about socialism.

Charlie Kirk Awarded Presidential Medal of Freedom, Transgender Decline, & Digital-Age Revival

Thursday, October 16, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 15, 2025. 

0:30 We tackle a fiery moment from the U.S. Supreme Court as Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s comments ignite debate over race, equality, and the limits of government intervention. Have America’s efforts to “fix” racism through legislation—like the Voting Rights Act and redistricting—gone too far? 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • A judge in San Francisco has placed another universal injunction on President Trump, this time over firing government workers during the government shutdown.
  • The Supreme Court heard arguments today in a Louisiana redistricting case that could drastically alter the balance of power in the House of Representatives, and change how congressional districts are drawn at the state level.
  • Stellantis, the parent company of Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep, announced it's expanding its manufacturing base in the United States.

13:30 The conversation turns to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s comparison between the Voting Rights Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. We question the logic of equating race with disability and explore what equality truly means in a constitutional sense.

16:30 We ask the American Mamas about the ceremony where Charlie Kirk was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The Mamas share their admiration for Erica Kirk’s extraordinary strength and grace in the face of loss — and for a president who made it a priority to honor her husband’s legacy.

23:00 When is upholding “international law” really just targeting America’s allies? That's exactly what’s happening when New York City mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani calls for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. 

25:30 We Dig Deep into a new report from the Center for Heterodox Social Science that shows that trans and queer identification among college students has nearly cut in half since 2023. The trend exposes the social — not biological — roots of gender ideology, pointing to lockdown-era isolation, TikTok influence, and a mental-health crisis among teens. From “social contagion” to cultural correction, we wonder if Gen Z is quietly walking away from one of the most aggressive social experiments in modern history.

33:30 We unpack a new study showing 42% of liberals — and a staggering 60% of liberals under 30 — consider breaking the law acceptable when protecting undocumented immigrants from deportation. 

36:00 Plus, we are in the middle of a revival in this country, arguably the biggest Christian revival in our lifetimes, and that's a huge Bright Spot. It gained momentum after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Bible sales, religious app downloads, and Christian music streaming are all on the rise, and long-time believers and newcomers alike are posting online about returning to church, seeking community, and finding renewed faith.

40:30 Barack Obama is supporting California Governor Gavin Newsom and accusing Republicans of wanting to steal seats. Yet California is one of the most, if not the most, gerrymandered state in the country. And Barack Obama wants you to think that it's the Republicans that are trying to steal the election? We gotta say, "Whoa."

Chelsea Clinton's Podcast, "No Kings" Rallies Return, & Young George Washington

Wednesday, October 15, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 14, 2025. 

0:30 When is a peace plan not a peace plan? When Joe Biden and Antony Blinken try to take credit for one. We break down the White House’s response to the recent Gaza ceasefire and why President Trump’s strength and clarity paved the way for real progress—while Biden’s foreign policy blunders left chaos in their wake. From Afghanistan to Israel, from Operation Warp Speed to diplomatic déjà vu, we dive into the pattern of political plagiarism from the Biden administration. 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump awarded the Medal of Freedom to Charlie Kirk, a month and a half after his assassination in Utah.
  • Maine's Governor, Democrat Janet Mills announced she's running for U.S. Senate.
  • The man accused of firebombing the Pennsylvania Governor's Mansion pled guilty to attempted murder today and 22 counts of arson.

13:30 We unpack the escalating persecution of Christians in Nigeria and China—atrocities that the mainstream media refuses to confront. From the daily slaughter of believers by Islamist militants in Nigeria to China’s state-sanctioned rewriting of the Bible, faith itself is under global assault.

16:30 Plus, Chelsea Clinton has a podcast — but should she? We ask the American Mamas— Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson— for their take. 

The Mamas dive into a clip from Clinton’s show — a slow, meandering discussion about “misinformation” and vaccines — and they can’t help but wonder if anyone’s still awake by the end. Is Clinton's podcast a breakthrough or just another echo from inside the same political bubble? 

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 We discuss America’s snack obsession — and the news that Frito-Lay is phasing out artificial dyes from classics like Doritos and Cheetos. 

26:00 “No Kings” rallies are back, but it's not quite clear who's funding them. We Dig Deep into just how “grassroots” these rallies really are — and who’s footing the bill. From recycled George Floyd-era protest tactics to reports of bail funds and arson chatter, the movement isn’t about rejecting monarchy at all — it’s about rejecting democracy. But the timing may be the biggest twist: internal documents suggest Democrats could be prolonging the government shutdown just long enough to stage-manage these rallies, complete with furloughed federal workers as props.

32:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 From fighter jets to fentanyl — the new “Top Gun” has gone rogue. Ukraine’s “Kill House Academy,” a so-called Top Gun school for drone warfare, is attracting an unexpected kind of recruit: members of Latin American drug cartels. We break down how this unholy alliance between wartime innovation and cartel ambition could reshape the battlefield — and the border.

36:00 Plus, Young George Washington, the upcoming Angel Studios film, is premiering just in time for the nation's 250th birthday, and that's a Bright Spot. Featuring an all-star cast including Ben Kingsley, Mary-Louise Parker, Kelsey Grammer, and Andy Serkis, it might just be the patriotic movie America needs right now. 

40:30 Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel are admitting it: Donald Trump earned respect. After Trump’s decisive approach to Middle East diplomacy, even his biggest critics are saying, "Whoa." 

42:30 And we finish off with a basketball team with integrity, even when it means losing.

Israeli Hostages Released, Katie Porter's Issues, & Marco Rubio

Tuesday, October 14, 2025

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 14, 2025. 

0:30 A federal judge has ruled that President Trump cannot deploy the National Guard to defend ICE facilities from violent attacks. What happens when unelected judges can stop a president from protecting federal property and law enforcement officers?

10:00 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump is in the Middle East to oversee the implementation of the first steps of his peace agreement.
  • President Trump ordered Sec. of War Pete Hegseth to pay the troops even though Democrats in Congress have shut down the government.
  • The Trump administration has cut 20% of the workforce of the Department of Education.

13:30 We react to a trending story about mixed orientation marriages — where one spouse identifies as straight and the other as gay. As the media celebrates these unions as a modern evolution of love, we have to ask: Is this genuine commitment, or a social experiment built on identity labels?

16:30 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson react to the emotional videos of Israeli hostages being reunited with their families — scenes of joy, relief, and divine grace that have moved millions around the world. The Mamas reflect on the faith, perseverance, and leadership that made these reunions possible, giving thanks to God and recognizing the unlikely figures — from President Trump to Jared Kushner — who helped open the door to peace.

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:30 We tackle the latest internet chatter surrounding Donald Trump, Jared Kushner, and the Middle East — including wild claims that the former president wants to turn Gaza into a luxury resort lined with Trump hotels. Is there truth to it, or just more conspiracy fuel?

26:30 We Dig Deep into Katie Porter’s latest political missteps and what they mean for her gubernatorial ambitions in California. From a tense interview where she threatened to walk out, to resurfaced videos of her berating staffers, we analyze how Porter’s abrasive reputation is affecting her standing with voters. We also explore the double standards in political coverage—how media perception can differ based on gender—and what her history of anger management issues might mean for her future in politics.

32:00 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 Representative Ilhan Omar has endorsed Somali-American candidate Omar Fateh for mayor of Minneapolis — a self-described democratic socialist. We unpack what this endorsement reveals about the shifting political landscape in Minnesota, and how decades of demographic and cultural changes have shaped the city’s identity.

36:00 We take a look at Marco Rubio’s tenure as Secretary of State and  his transformation from political rival to key diplomat in the Trump administration. We discuss his approach to America First foreign policy, his effectiveness compared to historical Secretaries of State like Thomas Jefferson, James Baker, and George Marshall, and contrast him with recent officeholders.

40:30 Speaker Mike Johnson took to the microphone today, declaring what he says many Americans already feel — that the Democratic Party has lost its direction. Even a couple of Democrats are straying from the main message and saying, “Whoa!” 

42:00 And we finish off with some words of wisdom from Chirstopher Columbus.

Leftist Children, Nobel Peace Prize, & Fake News Friday

Monday, October 13, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 10, 2025. 

0:30 We respond to a wave of chilling incidents that expose how violent rhetoric is spilling out of politics and onto our streets and campuses. From the horrific threat mailed to commentator Benny Johnson and flyers distributed at Georgetown University mocking Charlie Kirk's death to Jay Jones' disturbing text messages where he fantasized about shooting a GOP leader. Normalizing threats and celebrating violence erodes democratic debate, endangers everyday people, and invites escalation — and we challenge public figures, media, and institutions to condemn violence plainly and without excuses. 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • Federal workers are being laid off as the government shutdown entered its 10th day.
  • Dominion voting Systems has been bought by Republican Scott Leiendecker.
  • A Virginia man has been arrested for threatening to kill a Republican member of the State Legislature and his children.

13:30 We break down President Trump’s decision to raise tariffs on Chinese goods from 30% to 100%, a massive escalation in the ongoing trade and technology standoff with Beijing.

16:30 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle a question that hits home for many conservative parents:

“Dear Mamas, we’re conservative. Our grown children have bought into the leftist nonsense full force. Help!”

The Mamas dive deep into the emotional struggle of watching children abandon their family’s values and faith, and they remind listeners that while the world may divide us politically, faith, love, and prayer can bridge any gap.

23:00 We take a hard look at the chaos unfolding in New York City’s mayoral race.

25:30 We Dig Deep into this year's Nobel Peace Prize — and why President Donald Trump didn’t win it, despite a long list of international peace deals under his watch. 

The 2025 Nobel Committee awarded the prize to María Corina Machado, a Venezuelan opposition leader fighting for democracy against the Maduro regime. While her courage is praised, we question why the Nobel Committee overlooked the tangible peace achievements credited to Trump.

33:30 We dive into free speech on college campuses, spotlighting a controversial petition at Rutgers University to ban Turning Point USA from campus.The irony? The group being targeted is the one promoting open dialogue and free expression — and one of the loudest voices supporting the ban is reportedly an associate professor of Christianity.

36:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From the Nobel Peace Prize and the cease fire between Israel and Hamas, to Jeffrey Epstein, Vladimir Putin, and even paragliding into a campaign event, can you spot the fake news?

Curtis Sliwa Interview, Portland, & Republican Approval Ratings

Friday, October 10, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 9, 2025. 

0:30 We dive into new revelations about the Palisades Fire in California, now confirmed to have been set intentionally by an arsonist — not caused by climate change, as many headlines first claimed. We break down how federal investigators linked the suspect — a 29-year-old local with a history of threats and instability — to one of the most destructive wildfires in U.S. history.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • President Trump announced this week that both Hamas and Israel have accepted the first phase of his peace proposal.
  • President Trump held a roundtable meeting with independent journalists about ANTIFA at the White House yesterday.
  • New York Attorney General Latitia James has been indicted by a Federal Grand Jury for fraud.

13:30 We return from New York City — the heart of Italian-American culture — just in time for Columbus Day. We dive into President Trump’s declaration that “It’s Columbus Day, period. End of story.”, pushing back on efforts to rebrand it as Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

16:30 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle a listener question: What's wrong with Portland? From Antifa protests and ICE riots to a surprising personal story from inside the city, the mamas explore how Portland became a symbol of far-left activism — and why that image may be starting to shift. 

If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button.

23:00 We break down the latest in the New York City mayor’s race, focusing on Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani and his sweeping campaign promises — from freezing rent and city-owned grocery stores to fare-free public transit and a $30 minimum wage. The discussion explores how these policies could reshape New York’s economy and why critics say they would push the city further toward socialism.

25:30 We sit down with Curtis Sliwa, the Republican nominee for mayor of New York City and founder of the Guardian Angels, to talk about his decades-long fight to restore public safety and common sense to the Big Apple.

Sliwa shares his firsthand experience patrolling the streets since the 1970s, reflects on how civic education has vanished from schools, and warns against the rise of socialist “free everything” policies championed by his opponent. From tackling fare evasion and crime to restoring accountability and respect for law enforcement, Sliwa lays out his vision for a safer, more responsible New York.

32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20.

33:30 We react to Trevor Noah’s controversial comments about the tragic death of Charlie Kirk, calling out the growing hypocrisy in how the media and political elites treat violence across the aisle. They discuss how the mainstream left excuses cruelty when aimed at conservatives, why true compassion requires consistency, and what this moment says about America’s cultural divide.

36:30 Plus, a new Harvard Harris poll shows rising approval ratings for Republicans, and that's a Bright Spot. We break down the latest approval ratings showing Charlie Kirk (+16) and Erica Kirk (+14) leading the nation, with Republicans dominating the only positive approval scores in America. Meanwhile, Democrats — and even Vladimir Putin — sink to the bottom.

What’s driving the divide? We dig into why Americans are rallying behind authentic leaders who take a stand, not politicians who chase headlines. From RFK Jr. to Mike Johnson, it’s about conviction over calculation, and why voters are tired of finger-to-the-wind politics.

40:30 We react to Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s controversial response when asked whether an undocumented immigrant who committed a violent crime should be deported. Johnson’s refusal to answer will make you say, "Whoa!" 

42:30 And we finish off with a couple's vacation to Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas.

Socialism in NYC, Joe Biden's Corruption, & Sharpies Made in the USA

Wednesday, October 8, 2025

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 8, 2025. We are broadcasting to you from the studios of AM970 The Answer from the Salem Media Network in New York City. 

0:30 We dive into New York’s rising socialist movement and the mayoral ambitions of Zoran Mamdani, the self-proclaimed “Democratic Socialist” candidate who wants to freeze rents, eliminate the NYPD, and replace them with a Department of Community Safety. We break down how Mamdani’s proposals — from city-owned grocery stores to free public transit — would reshape the economy, housing, and public safety across the five boroughs.

From rent control’s failed history to the growing theft crisis in New York pharmacies, we explore what happens when ideology replaces practicality — and why capitalism and personal responsibility remain essential to America’s success.

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. 

  • James Comey, the former head of the FBI, pled not guilty today in a court in Alexandria, Virginia.
  • Republicans in the US Senate were able to pass through more than 100 confirmations for President Trump's administraton.
  • The state of Kentucky is suing the online gaming platform Roblox.

13:30 Tensions rise as Russia warns of “irreparable damage” to U.S.–Russian relations following the United States’ decision to send Tomahawk missiles to Kiev. We unpack the latest developments in the Russia–Ukraine conflict and discuss what this means for U.S. diplomacy, global stability, and the Trump administration’s foreign policy strategy.

16:30 Our American Mamas — Terry Nettelville and Kimberly Burleson — react to reports that Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman are headed for divorce. The mamas unpack why this celebrity breakup has struck a chord with so many fans and explore the deeper issues behind high-profile relationships.

From balancing fame and family to the emotional toll of on-screen intimacy and time apart, the conversation turns candid and relatable. Are Hollywood marriages doomed by distance and demanding careers?

23:00 Sen. Paul says tariffs are “killing” industries like family farming, bourbon production, and cargo transport, but we take a deeper look at whether that pain is temporary — and perhaps even necessary. Are tariffs the economic medicine America needs after decades of free trade deals that hollowed out U.S. manufacturing?

26:30 We Dig Deep into new revelations about Joe Biden’s corruption during his time as vice president — and the media’s continued silence about it. Leaked and recently declassified emails suggest that Biden intervened to suppress a CIA report that detailed his 2015 trip to Ukraine — the same trip where he allegedly pressured officials to fire a prosecutor investigating Burisma, the energy company tied to his son, Hunter Biden.

We break down what the CIA called “evidence of a double standard” in U.S. corruption policy and how Biden’s actions may have crossed the line from politics to personal gain.

33:30 After receiving a street pamphlet calling to “End the Chinese Communist Party,” we discuss the dangers of communism, both abroad and at home. From China and Cuba to New York City’s own socialist mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani, the hosts argue that communism destroys prosperity, freedom, and human potential — replacing opportunity with control and equality with enforced poverty.

36:30 Plus, the iconic Sharpie marker is now made almost entirely in the USA, thanks to a major investment by Newell Brands in their Tennessee manufacturing plant, and that's a Bright Spot. 

This isn’t just about a pen. It’s about American craftsmanship, self-reliance, and proving that Made in the USA still pays off. We break down how Sharpie’s story symbolizes a broader shift toward onshoring — as more companies rediscover the value of investing in American workers instead of outsourcing abroad.

40:30 And we finish off with a dog that will make you say, "Whoa!"
