Gender Ideology and Political Violence: The Study We Can't Ignore

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for August 26, 2026.

We start by digging into the tangled state of the 2028 Democratic presidential field: Kamala Harris leads the national polling average, but red-state Democrats running in Iowa and Alaska are keeping her at arm's length, and her New Hampshire numbers tell a very different story than the national headline does. From there we hit the Top 3: President Trump's mail-in ballot executive order gets the green light after the Supreme Court forces a Boston judge to lift her injunction, Senator Darline Graham wins her primary to keep her late brother Lindsey Graham's Senate seat in South Carolina, and three Secret Service officers lose their clearances amid leak allegations.

We're joined by American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson to weigh in on whether a private text-message conversation caught on video in public is fair game, sparking a broader conversation about selective outrage and privacy double standards. We also try to put to rest the viral rumor about a government "kill switch" in 2027 vehicles, walking through what the 2021 infrastructure law actually requires versus what's circulating on social media.

In Digging Deep, we look at a new HHS-backed study out of Rutgers and the Manhattan Institute examining a possible link between gender ideology and support for political violence, tying it back to Charlie Kirk's final on-air remarks. Our Bright Spot honors Dolly Parton, spotlighting King Charles and Camilla's tribute alongside tributes from Bill Clinton and President Trump, and celebrating her rise from an East Tennessee cabin to global icon. We close with a Moment of Whoa over Colin Kaepernick receiving the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award, plus a remembrance of actor Tim Curry, who passed away this week at 80.
