The Chris Stigall Show

Stigall is lamenting a scheduled meeting at the White House tomorrow with the newly elected socialist, Islamist mayor of NYC. He's calling it "narrative poker" and explains today why this could be a very bad idea if not handled just right. Are Democrats asking members of the military to defy the Secretary of War and Commander-In-Chief? It sure sounds like it. Senator Tommy Tubberville joins the show today to affirm his support for ...

With remarkable swiftness, both chambers of Congress vote to unseal all documents related to Epstein. President Trump has signaled he'll sign it right away. Let's hope so. Still, it causes Stigall to wonder why all those who moved with such urgency on this issue can't seem to accomplish much on several other issues of importance to the country. US Senator Dave McCormick joins the show to discuss the Trump tariff policy among other ...

Just yesterday alone, three unbelievable judicial rulings came down that set Stigall off for the entire first half of the show. While there is much to discuss in the news, the role of the activist judiciary in this country is outsized and must be dealt with swiftly. Yes, the House is going to vote on the Epstein files and President Trump will sign off on whatever needs to be released. That’s a good thing. And yes, there are m...

There seems to be a strong play for the "MAGA mantle" in suggesting President Trump is no longer "America First." Stigall lays out as clearly as he ever has today as to why there's only one MAGA leader and it's not an "influencer," or podcast host or member of Congress. It's POTUS. Are Republicans going to hang tough on Obamacare subsidies or fight for real reform now that the issue is front and center? President Trump tells Republ...

The very latest in an aggressive flex in the Caribbean by the Secretary of War. What's the end goal? And President Trump has also signaled a willingness to get involved in battling those who slaughter Christians in Africa. John Hayward brings his brilliance to both issues as well as the criticism that issues like these take the focus off our domestic priorities. To that end, the Vice President hits the talk shows to make the cast t...

Now that the government has reopened, there are a couple of different debates that will immediately get underway. 42 million people receive SNAP benefits for basic needs. How much fraud? Turns out a lot of it and the Secretary of Agriculture is prepared to lower the boom on it in a new report next week. Stigall has some preliminary numbers. One of the greatest Christmas traditions for the Stigall family is going to see Trans Siberi...

The truth is, he's dropping bombs on his own party for playing fast and loose with millions of Americans' paychecks simply to continue to prop up Obamacare. Something he says his party set up to expire at this time on purpose anyway. As Democrats throw their leader Chuck Schumer overboard, Fetterman seems to be suggesting Obamacare should go with him. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent continues to be the best explainer on President ...

Don't miss it. Democrats long ago keyed in on this word and have used it to great effect. "Affordable" housing. "Affordable" health care. It's a con game of course because nothing the government runs ends up being affordable or quality. That said, Republicans and the White House do have to battle the siren song of socialism and big government in an economy in which people are struggling. Particularly young people. Today, Stigall pr...

That's President Trump's plan, in part - with the revenue he's taking in from tariffs. The big "if" is, of course - will the Supreme Court stop him from using them? Stigall lays out why this president's economic policies should be celebrated, not stymied. The shutdown seems to be coming to a close. The Democrats' base is more angry than ever because of it. What brought the 8 Democrats over? Will Obamacare be bailed out again? Erin ...

Today's show focuses heavily on the politics of the left which are unceasing and unapologetic in the ground they want to take and the voices they want silenced. Increasingly, more calls are coming from the MAGA base to do something most have been uncomfortable and unwilling to do - nuke the filibuster in the Senate. Stigall takes comment from around the country - is this a necessary step before the left does it anyway? Now that mas...

There's still a lot of post mortem going on surrounding Tuesday's Democrat victories. The former co-chair of the RNC and one of the architects of President Trump's sweeping victory in 2024 - Lara Trump - weighs in on the road to victory for the GOP's future, what we can learn from Tuesday, and should the GOP do away with the filibuster? President Trump very much wants to but what will that mean for the future of politics? Or are we...

Depends on who you ask. We're loaded up today with analysis on elections that went overwhelmingly Democrat last night. A new brand of radical will now govern New York. Will the economy turnaround before next year and help the GOP? Is this a warning of things to come or simply deep blue states. Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma joins us to explain why he believes the filibuster should stay in tact in the Senate despite President Tr...

Chief economist Steve Moore believes a win in the NYC mayors race by Zorhan Mamdani could spell the end for high finance in the Big Apple. He also expresses his disbelief at the SNAP benefits discussion during the government shut down. Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn reacts to the death of former VP Dick Cheney and how the Republican Party has changed since the Bush era to today. Plus, you won’t believe what she found out ...

Bringing out Obama to the stump in Virginia seems like an interesting play. So, too is the messaging. Unity, low taxes, tough on crime. These are the things Democrats are closing with even though it's the furthest thing from their agenda heretofore. Even the DNC chair admits what they were selling isn't working. Stigall also continues to tackle the simmering discomfort amongst some conservatives and commentators on the rise of a ce...

The President has sparked a debate Stigall says was teed up by the Vice President in yesterday's show. Tomorrow is the deadline for some 40 million Americans who collect SNAP benefits. President Trump has a solution for Republicans. Should they take it? Virginia's gubernatorial race all comes down to Tuesday. The Republican candidate for the post is the current Lt. Governor of the Commonwealth - Winsome Sears joins the show. WWE fa...

If you're not familiar with Operation Arctic Frost - now is the day to learn about it. In American history there is no parallel and Republican Senators like Eric Schmitt and Ted Cruz are demanding the House of Representatives move now to impeach one of the most partisan and destructive federal judges in the country. This makes some nervous, but Stigall says Vice President Vance gave advice last night at a TPUSA event all conservati...

President Trump is steaming through Asia brokering deal after deal on trade and peace. South Korea and Japan in just the last 24 hours. On deck is a biggie - China. Gordon Chang, author of "Plan Red: China's Project to Destroy America" offers insights into why this time Xi might be desperate to get a deal done this week. The hilarious Arynne Wexler stops by to discuss "influencer" culture amongst conservatives gong off the rails. M...

One by one more voices traditionally aligned with the Democrats are calling on them - maybe not by name - to sign on with Republicans to reopen the government. Jim Pfaff of the Conservative Caucus explains the politics on the Hill and how the Democrats inadvertently boxed themselves in on the Obamacare discussion. RedState.com front page contributor Bonchie returns to discuss the very uncomfortable but obvious influence of foreign ...

Holy cow! Democrats are going all in on an Islamist dual citizen who proudly calls himself a "socialist." Meanwhile, President Trump is leaning hard into free market trade deals and the economy is responding. Which path will work politically is anyone's guess. Power-packed panel today to respond to it all. EJ Antoni responds to the economic news that inflation, gas, and groceries continue to drop. Daniel Turner from Power the Futur...
