Subscribe to the YouTube channel: Jillian and Eric Bolling go straight for the jugular on the fallout from the Tucker Carlson–Nick Fuentes interview.  This has detonated inside the conservative movement, and they’re calling out the threat head-on: an alt-right fringe trying to hijack the party, poison the base, and hand victories to the Left on a silver platter.

Kelsi Sheren survived war — but what she experienced after coming home was far darker. In this episode, Kelsi exposes the horrifying reality of Canada’s MAiD program: a system offering euthanasia not just to veterans, but to the disabled, the mentally ill, those battling depression, and — in proposed expansions — even minors. Instead of offering treatment, care, or hope, the government is quietly offering death. She explains how a ...
