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.
