James Talarico, the Democrat nominee for the U.S. Senate from Texas once urged citizens to reduce their consumption of barbecue. When he ran for the statehouse he campaigned on a “non-meat” platform. Do you really think Texans are going to stop smoking brisket?

The social media wars need to end and so does their petty bickering. The enemy here are radical progressive Democrats. Instead of fighting each other, we need to be laser focused on making sure the Democrats never win control of Congress. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

There’s a very real chance that the Republicans could lose the midterm elections because social media influencers are splintering the MAGA movement. President Trump entered the fray over the weekend by voicing his clear support for radio host Mark Levin.

ROTC students sprang into action when a Muslim jihadist shouted "Allahu Akbar" and opened fire inside a classroom at Old Dominion University. The FBI says the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps students showed “extreme bravery and courage” and prevented further loss of life by stopping the suspect, identified as Mohamed Bailor Jalloh. The ROTC students subdued him and “rendered him no longer alive,” the FBI said. “I don’t know how else to say it.” President Trump should honor these brave cadets at the White House.

Lara is joined by former RNC national spokesperson Elizabeth Pipko and host of The Danielle Gill Show Danielle Gill for a panel discussion on some of the biggest political stories of the week.

The panel begins with a discussion of the ongoing conflict involving Iran and the broader implications for global security. The conversation turns to why many voices on the left, including prominent feminist organizations, have remained silent about the treatment of the Iranian women’s soccer team.

The ladies also discuss the importance of maintaining a secure border during periods of heightened international tension and the risks of potential terrorist threats within the United States. They react to the attempted terrorist attack in New York City and examine how some political figures, including Mamdani, have attempted to spin the situation.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted a Muslim event at City Hall the other day. Those gathered assembled on prayer rugs. They sat barefoot on the ground while eating a meal and chanting about Allah. One of the Muslims in attendance flashed the symbol for ISIS – just a few days after two ISIS terrorists tried to blow up conservative protesters.

In the shadows of where two mighty towers once stood, Islamists broke bread on prayer rugs inside City Hall. 

It turns out that the Islamists were not just waging jihad on the Twin Towers on that awful, terrible day. But they were also waging jihad on our way of life. The Christians and the Jews turned a blind eye out of either ignorance or fear. But it really doesn’t matter now. 

Because New York City is now under Islamic rule and if this country does not wake up to this clear and present danger – it won’t be the last major city to fall. 

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has been sabotaging President Trump’s agenda from Day One. It’s time for Republicans to remove this man from leadership. Otherwise, the GOP will face a full-scale rebellion from voters in the midterms. The only reason we gave them congressional majorities was to implement Trump’s agenda.

What really angered me was watching President Trump plead with members of his own party to pass the Save America Act. It’s time to remove Majority Leader John Thune from leadership. This is ridiculous.

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) says all Muslims should be deported from the United States. Agree or disagree?

Sen. Markwayne Mullin, the president’s pick to be the next secretary of Homeland Security, says that considerations should be made for the children of illegals. Do you agree with that assessment? Should DHS only focus on the most hardened illegal alien criminals?

President Trump says he will soon endorse a candidate in the GOP runoff in the Texas U.S. Senate race. Trump says the person he does not endorse should immediately drop out of the race. Will Trump choose Establishment candidate Sen. John Cornyn or MAGA candidate AG Ken Paxton?

Today, I have a message for all of you America First patriots – all of you folks who support a secure border and lower prices at the grocery store. All of you folks who are celebrating President Trump’s crackdown on violent crime. This is a message for all of you Christians who cherish religious liberty and all of you law-abiding gun owners and sportsmen who enjoy hunting. And for you folks who believe boys should stay out of the girls locker room. This is for all of you great Americans who oppose the weaponization of our federal agencies. If you don’t vote – the president’s agenda will come to a crashing halt. Most recently – primary elections in Texas and North Carolina. Big races on the ballot and in both states Democrats smoked Republicans. They turned out in record numbers to vote in their primaries. Had this been the November election – the Democrats would’ve retaken the House and the Senate. President Trump has done his part for American and you must do yours. Vote. 

The surviving Iranian leaders were meeting to determine their next Ayatollah when Israel blew up the building where they were meeting. Bad guys go boom!

It’s been interesting to see the reactions to the military strikes against Iran. Iranian women are shedding their hijabs which were mandatory under Islamic dress code rules. Here in America, woke women are cloaking themselves in the hijab. Students in Iran are celebrating in the streets chanting President Trump’s name. Students here are chanting, “Death to America.” Persians across our nation are marching in the streets, waving American flags and dancing to “YMCA” – the unofficial theme song of the MAGA movement. And yet so-called conservative influencers like Candace Owens and Nick Feuntes and Tucker Carlson are condemning our nation and our president. Tucker said President Trump’s actions were absolutely disgusting. Ironically, he shares the same opinion as Jane Fonda and the Islamists. It is a great day for freedom fighters and a bad day for the Islamists and their American propagandists. And never forget that the Ayatollah tried to assassinate President Trump not once, but twice. And now Iran’s Supreme Leader is a pile a Kibbles & Bits. 

Tucker Carlson in an explosive interview accused Americans who support Israel of being shills. He also said that President Trump will be the last pro-Israel president. We will discuss on today’s show.

A bombshell report shows the FBI targeted multiple Trump staffers after the 2020 presidential election. They got phone records and digital search reports from a number of staffers including Susie Wiles. Make no mistake - when the Democrats say they will target and punish Trump supporters after 2028 - they mean business.

Guest host Andy Hooser fills in for Todd on the Todd Starnes Radio Show!

Something special happened at the Winter Olympics. It’s a rare moment when a sports team can unite the country. But that’s what happened on Sunday – when the men’s hockey team won not only the gold – but they won the hearts of a nation. 

Millions of Americans watched the game from the living rooms and neighborhood pubs and many even watched on their smart phones – tucked away in pews during church. Which could explain why there were spontaneous shouts of “praise the Lord” during the preacher’s sermon. 

But not everyone was proud to be an American on Sunday. 

Huffington Post writer Monica Torres penned a scathing attack on our country. She said that many of our fellow countrymen are turned off by waving Old Glory and chanting, “USA.” Now you understand why many news organizations are filing for bankruptcy. 

If you really do get turned off by the red, white and blue – I’d recommend moving to Canada. I have much more to say about this on my website, ToddStarnes.com. 

The president of the student body at Iowa State University has been impeached by the Student Government Association because he is part of a group with ties to Turning Point USA. They claim he acted with "malfeasance" because he supports conservatives running for student government. Colby Brandt will now face a Supreme Court trial to determine if he will be removed from office. Ironically, at the same meeting the SGA approved funding for an Iranian student group and other far-left causes. It's time for the Department of Education to put up or shut up when it comes to universities that silence conservative students. All federal funding to Iowa State University must be frozen. Jeff Stein from KXEL Radio joins to discuss. And be sure to read more about this story at www.toddstarnes.com.

President Trump is beloved by black Americans and they demonstrated that love during a special ceremony at the White House. Felicia Cook earned national praise when she blasted the president’s critics. "Get off the man’s back," she said. "Let him do his job. He’s doing the right thing. Back up off him."
