Conservatively Speaking – Opening Monologue
Good morning, New England! Welcome to Conservatively Speaking on WCRN, AM 830, Radio Central! I’m Joe Mangiacotti, sitting in for my good friend Mike Wade this morning. It’s always great to be here with you—common sense conservatives, constitutionalists, and lovers of liberty. We have a packed show today, and trust me, you are NOT going to want to miss a second of it.
As always, we’re cutting through the noise and getting to the truth. No spin, no nonsense, just common sense conversation for the common sense citizen—and boy, do we have a lot to talk about.
First Up: Judicial Tyranny – When Judges Make Law Instead of Interpreting It
We’ll kick things off with yet another rogue judge thinking he runs the country. This week, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg tried to override a core executive power—immigration enforcement. He ruled to halt Trump’s deportation flights, including sending violent Tren de Aragua gang members out of the country. Now tell me—when did we decide that unelected judges get to override national security decisions?
Folks, this is judicial rule, not judicial review. The Constitution gives the executive branch authority over immigration, and one leftist judge doesn’t get to change that because he doesn’t like Trump’s policies. We’ll discuss why judicial overreach is one of the biggest threats to our Republic and why Trump’s pushback is not lawlessness, but leadership.
Next: FEMA Fraud—270,000 Claims for 13,000 Homes?
I want you to let this sink in: In Los Angeles, 270,000 people filed for FEMA disaster relief after the devastating wildfires—but here’s the problem: only 13,000 homes were destroyed. That’s twenty times more applications than actual houses lost!
Identity theft and fraud are running rampant, and yet, instead of fixing the system, what does FEMA do? They close applications early, making it harder for real victims to get help.
This is what happens when government gets too big, too bloated, and too incompetent to do the basics: help real victims and stop fraudsters. We’ll talk about how this kind of government mismanagement has been a recurring theme, from Hurricane Katrina to COVID relief fraud—and why smaller government is always the better solution.
Transgender Athletes and Trump’s Crackdown on Woke Universities
Speaking of government money going where it shouldn’t—let’s talk about the University of Pennsylvania losing $175 million in funding over their radical woke policies that let men compete in women’s sports.
Trump signed an executive order banning this nonsense, and Penn defied it—so he cut their funding. And you know what? Some of Lia Thomas’ own former teammates came out and applauded the decision.
These young women—Grace Estabrook, Margot Kaczorowski, and Ellen Holmquist—said Penn stole their opportunities, endangered them, and ignored their rights. This is exactly what happens when universities put ideology over fairness, and I say: Good for Trump for standing up for biological women.
Biden’s Inflation Disaster: Why Everything Costs More
Let’s talk about something that hits all of us where it hurts: your wallet. If you’ve gone to the grocery store, the gas pump, or tried to buy a house lately, you know exactly what I’m talking about.
Inflation is out of control, and the Biden administration’s answer? Spend more money, print more dollars, and pretend everything is fine. Meanwhile, the middle class is being squeezed like never before.
We’ll break down how Biden’s reckless spending and anti-energy policies have driven up the cost of everything, and why only conservative, free-market policies can reverse this mess.

While we’re talking about Biden’s disasters, let’s not forget the border crisis.
