0:30 You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. We break down President Trump’s latest executive order renaming the Department of Defense back to its historic title, the Department of War. Is it just semantics—or a powerful shift in America’s posture on the world stage? 

We cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know:

  • The U.S. economy added just 22,000 jobs last month—well below expectations.
  • Trump takes aim at Fed Chair Jerome Powell as Democrats blame tariffs for weak growth.
  • Federal agents arrest 450 illegal aliens at a Hyundai plant in Georgia, sparking international controversy.

13:30 One of Joe Biden's top aides, Andrew Bates, plead the fifth when asked if Biden actually ran the White House. What is he hiding? We ask the American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, if parents are normalizing weird behaviors that set kids up for failure. From furries to gender questions and the “best-friend parent” trend, the Mamas push back on treating momentary childhood phases as lifelong identity choices.

23:00 President Trump pushes for a tougher U.S. citizenship test—arguing that raising the bar honors immigrants and strengthens America. We Dig Deep into widespread anti-Christian bias across multiple federal agencies under the Biden administration, from the DOJ and State Department to HUD and the Department of Defense.

40:30 We address Rosie O'Donnell's latest unhinged attack on President Trump. And we finish off with Darth Vader's original lightsaber. The auction price of this Star Wars collectible will make you say, "Whoa!"
