📌"Do you know what values your tax dollars are promoting?"

In this riveting episode of Kent Hance: The Best Storyteller in Texas, Kent sits down with Congressman Brandon Gill, a rising conservative voice representing Texas' 26th District. From his humble beginnings in Clovis, New Mexico, to graduating from Dartmouth and leading the charge in Washington, Gill shares his journey, his convictions, and the battles he's fighting on Capitol Hill.

Listeners will hear how Gill went from a small-town high school class of 24 to winning a crowded congressional race with 58% of the vote—without a runoff. He opens up about his time as president of the Dartmouth Review, his connection to political scholar Dinesh D'Souza, and the viral moment that put him on the national radar: grilling NPR's CEO over controversial tweets and taxpayer-funded bias.

Gill doesn't hold back as he discusses:

  • The government shutdown and the fight over healthcare benefits for illegal immigrants
  • His work on the Judiciary and Oversight Committees, including the new DOGE subcommittee
  • The push to defund NPR and PBS, and the shocking programs your tax dollars may be funding
  • His vision for conservative leadership and reclaiming fiscal responsibility

Notable quote:
🗣️ "She should've been prepared. She had an army of lawyers behind her—and still couldn't defend her own tweets."

This episode is packed with insight, strategy, and a behind-the-scenes look at how one freshman Congressman is shaking up Washington. Whether you're a political junkie or just love a good story, this one's worth your time.
