Settle up, Pardoner.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
This ain't no cattle drive.
Speaker 3 (00:03):
We're driving at the truth and chasing that sunset painted red,
white and blue.

American Ground Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
We choose to go to the moon and do the
other thing, not because they are easy, but because they
are on. It is time for us to realize that
we're too great.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
A nation to limit ourselves to small dreams.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
I have a dream, but one day this nation will
rise up, live out the true meaning of its tree.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Abalone and Stephen Prokoo.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
One.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
This is American Ground Radio.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
Stephen par with lewisar Avalon ag So The New York Times.
New York Times recently admitted that the emaciated Palestinian child
that it featured on the front page of its newspaper. Yes,
and they portrayed this child. It's heartbreaking. But the New
York Times portrayed this child as a victim of starvation
(01:23):
in Gaza.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Yes, blaming the Israeli government for starving all the children
in Gods has become a very big story.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Reason and as sad as this story is, it has
nothing to do with being starved, because the child actually
suffers from a pre existing health issue, specifically a muscular
disorder that affects his nutrition and his physical development.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
So his body doesn't actually get the nutrition it needs
even though he's receiving food.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
But the New York Times didn't tell you that part. Now,
the correction to the story came after the image went viral.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Because the damage had already been done.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Well, because folks who are pro Palestinian, they started sharing
this all over the place saying, oh, this is a
symbol of this humanitarian crisis in Gaza, right and again.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Blaming Israel for all of the problems in Gaza, not
doing any blaming of Hamas, which, by the way, Israel
had actually set up some food stations, the United States
had set up some food stations, and Hamas was attacking
people who were trying to get the food from the
Israelis well.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
First of all, this whole for folks who aren't necessarily
following day to day this. The truth on the ground
in Gaza is very complex. There is a there is
an indeed a humanitarian crisis, but the root causes include
poor food distribution, not just a low supply. Because there's
(02:56):
some reports that say Hamas and armed groups like Hamas loot.
They do the aid in these convoys that are that
are being trucked into Gaza.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Hamas loots the aid one two. Hamas will attack anyone
who tries to get the aid when the aid comes
from Israel or the aid comes from the United States.
So there's a very complicated problem. And if you want
to get to the root cause of the famine going
on in Gods, if you want to call it that, yeah,
hamasage it's October seventh, well it is, that's the root call.
(03:29):
But the other part of this is Hamas refuses to
release Israeli hostages. Hamasage war. They have lost this war.
They have no hope of winning this war. They didn't
get the message. They didn't get the members. Not because
they don't actually care about their own people. Hamas does
not care about Palestinians. Hamas only cares about the leadership
of Hamas. That's it. They are a terrorist organization. They
(03:53):
do not care that that child that was on the
cover of the New York Times. Did Harmas do anything
to help that No, because Hamas does not care about Palestinians.
Hamas cares about killing Jews, whatever the costs. And these
fact is that is abhorrant.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, and these facts should have been in the story, yes,
but it wasn't. It wasn't. And you know, some people
say the New York Well, I think at one point
the New York Times was a trusted institution.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
A while back, the old Gray Lady all the news
that's fit to print.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
But the thing is, I don't know they will that
they will ever regain their credibility.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Well, this is the second time in a month when
they've had a massive error on a story. Remember just
last month, or I guess it was early this month.
Donald Trump filed a ten billion dollar lawsuit against the
New York Times for defamation because he says they printed
supposedly the birthday card, they never actually showed the birthday called.
(04:57):
They said, there's a birthday card where Donald Trump drew
up picture of a naked woman and told Epstein happy birthday.
And Trump told them ahead of time, that ain't my handwriting,
that's not my card, that's not how I write. I
never sent a birthday card to Epstein. I certainly am
not an artist to draw naked pictures of women. That's
not mine. Don't publish that. And the New York Times
(05:19):
went ahead and published the details of that card, even
though it was a completely made up story.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
But you know, generally speaking, when you when you lose trust,
let's just say, in a relationship.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Oh yeah, try this one for example.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yes, yeah, yeah, It's not enough just to say I
made a mistake, right, sorry, didn't mean to lie. I mean,
because you've got to now repair a broken bond, right,
and you've got to want it. You've got to want
to rebuild trust. You've got to act consistently with honesty,
(05:55):
and you've got to actively engage to demonstrate that. Okay,
And so I don't think and I say all of
that because I don't think the New York Times wants it.
They'll publish a retraction or they'll say we made a mistake.
But if you're lying and then you admit that you lied,
(06:17):
but you don't do anything to rebuild the trust, you
don't take any active steps to do that, right, I mean,
at that point, you're still a liar.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Well, the New York Times won Pulitzer Prize awards for
the whole Russia collusion story. What a joke. That absolute
So everything they published in those Russia collusion stories that
they won Pulitzer prizes for turned out to be completely
made up political propaganda. It was one hundred percent false.
(06:48):
The New York Times published it as if it was fact,
and they were awarded for publishing lies. Has the New
York Times come out and said, you know what, our
integrity as journalists is too big to celebrate falsehoods. So
we're going to return the Pulitzer Prizes that we won
because we know that our reporting was wrong, Our reporting
(07:09):
was faulty. We do not deserve this award. Where we're
turning these awards because we want to rebuild trust with
their audience. So the New York Times do that.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
But see, the line between journalism and entertainment is so blurred.
You know, I know I've asked this question before. You know,
why do people lie? Why would the New York Times
lie even when they know that there's better than a
fifty to fifty chance that folks are going to figure
this out?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Because I think they're going to get an advantage of it.
Speaker 5 (07:37):
But see, I think part of it is they're writing
that story is not written for you or for me. No,
it is written for an audience that is already primed
to believe the worst about anyone you know.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Or it's written for gullible people. It's written for gullible
people who just assume, oh my gosh, look at all
this horrible they're trying to The reason you write that
story is because you want to make Israel look bad.
That's why you were in this day and age. You
can't tell me, oh, we're just telling the truth. Really,
Russia collusion, you're not just out telling the truth. You're
(08:15):
out there. You're out there telling the lies that you like.
So the reason you're writing this is because you're trying
to turn Americans against Israel. That's why you did that story.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
And then what they do even you know, ironically, when
a lot of these organizations, like the New York Times
or institutions, whatever you want to call them, whenever they're caught,
whenever that deceit is uncovered, they really don't necessarily back down.
They often, as you saw in the Russia collusion conspiracy,
(08:48):
so called conspiracy, they double down, yes on the line.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Time and time again. At least they did print a
retraction on this one, but the damage already stack it
up next to all the others. The damage was already.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
What are you doing differently?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Right?
Speaker 5 (09:06):
I mean, What are you doing differently to not lie
to me next time?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
How are you what steps are you taking to get
rid of your Trump derangement syndrome and to stop assuming
that Israel is always the bad guy? What are the
two steps you're taking to battle those biases?
Speaker 5 (09:22):
And they'd have no audience.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Let's get to the top three things you need know
before tom All. First, you know before of all, the
US economy grew at a three percent rate in the
second quarter. That's according to the US Commerce Department. Today.
The GDP increased faster than most economists had expected. The
biggest reason for the climb in GDP was a decrease
(09:46):
in imports of more than five percent. Consumer spending increased
one point four percent from April through June. Despite the
good economic news, the Federal Reserve voted today to keep
interest rates at the same elevated four point five percent
for the fifth time this year.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
No, we are winning in this country. I mean the
US economy I mean is robust.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
We'd be winning more if we could get insurance interest
rates down to where people could afford to buy a home.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
We're getting there.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
That's eug getting this same flash sea your own Powell.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Well, it's it's incremental. But this EU deal that President Trump,
that was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Second thing you need to be from our President Trump
and now say twenty five percent tariff on India today
for all imports from that country. India has the world's
largest population and is the world's largest democracy, but the
US does relatively little business with them because of their
trade barriers, President Trump announced on social media. Quote, their
tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the world,
and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non monetary
(10:40):
trade barriers of any country. He also noted that India
buys massive amounts of military equipment and energy product from Russia,
which allows Russia to continue its war in Ukraine. He
said more tarifts for India's Russia dealings would soon be coming. Yeah,
I mean they need to play ball. Yeah, and Trump
is going to try and cut off Russia's money supply
bring them to the negotiating table by instituting secondary tariffs
(11:03):
on any country doing business with Russisi.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Says, essentially, India is funding that the Russian war with Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
So is China. And the third thing you need Before
a while, the US Sentate approved the appointment of Emil
Bov to the federal bench. Bov was a former defense
attorney for President Trump, and that made a lot of
Democrats angry at the appointment. As a result of his
nomination only passed on a fifty to forty nine vote.
The confirmation hearing has got nasty at time, with Democrats
claiming Bov was authoritarian and beholden to President Trump. Publican
(11:31):
Senator Chuck Grassey said, the vicious rhetoric, unfair accusations and
abuse directed at mister Bov by some on this committee,
it has crossed the line. Bob will now serve as
an appellate judge for the Third Circuit Court of Appeals
based in Philadelphia. Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
How many federal judges did Biden or Obama appoint that
are beholden to them or are their ideology?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Good point, We'll be back.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
You are listening to American Ground Radio.
Speaker 6 (12:00):

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Welcome back to American Founderaated of Stephen Parmer luisar Abalone.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
You ever heard of a burn bag? A burn bag? Yeah,
that's not something you know, like an organized crime or anything.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I haven't.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
It's actually something in our federal government.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Some might liken to organized crime at.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Times sometimes, Okay, a burn bag.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
So these burn bags are not it's not just used
for storage like you know, for like documents, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That'd be a storage bag.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah, but they call them burn bags because these are
official federals. The burn bag is an official federal system
for destroying classified and sensitive documents after the retention period
has expired. So it's not really a bag, it's it's
it's kind of a term of art.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Okay, So you're gonna this is stuff that after the
retention period's over, you throw this like like you're gonna
burn it.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
You might burn documents it might be hard drives. Remember
remember uh Clinton cheats bit yep exactly. O. FBI director
kash Ptel just uncovered thousands of documents that that were
stashed away in dozens of burn bags in rooms left
(14:03):
unattended in FBI headquarters. So this is maybe from the
Obama administration, could be going back to the administration. So
apparently there was there was a room, you know, because
look the Department of Justice, big building, big building, big
big building, big building, and no doubt that there probably
(14:25):
are some very secret rooms, you know, places you could
stash stuff away closet I mean, you know, kind of
secret spy type activities, right, And that's what he has discovered.
All these burned bags that I mean, this is monumental.
And you may say, what what.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Does it have?
Speaker 5 (14:45):
What does it have in it?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah? What do they say?
Speaker 5 (14:47):
Well, many of them deal with the Durham Report and
the Russia, the whole Russia hoax documents, where all of
that originated from notes from the Oval Office. Oh ah,
you know, so Obama is like, oh this is ridiculous. Yeah, Well,
(15:08):
whomever was responsible to destroy these documents documents are hard
drives or didn't or phones? God only knows at this
moment what is in these burned bags other than kash Pateel.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Barack Obama has taken a whole bunch of documents from
the White House to Chicago, and they're in warehouses. They're
in Illinois waiting for his Presidential Library to be built.
The FBI rated mar A Lago over documents there. Why
hasn't anybody gone to Illinois to see what Barack Obama has?
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Maybe that's next.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
We got a question for American mamas. Dear mamas, did
you see the Texas furniture store employees that discovered a pedophile?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Well, let's ask ah American mama's Almabama and joining is
now our American Mama's turn Ediviale and Kimberly Burlison. This
I did not see, So you guys are gonna have
(16:09):
to fill me in.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
Oh, well, this happened in Texas just a few days ago,
and it's kind of wild because everything was in real time. Okay,
So this guy comes into a furniture store and he's
looking for bunk beds, but he's looking for bunk beds
that are that a double mattress can go on, and
they're on three layers. Of beds and he wanted to
buy six of those. So he's talking to the yea,
I know, I know beds.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
That are double layers, and he wants to buy six
of them.
Speaker 7 (16:33):
Yes, yes, So already it's like raises a flag that's weird.
So the guy that he's talking to that works there,
he's like, this is so weird. So they start filming this.
So he sits behind the table and he's like, this
is so weird. Let me look up this guy. So
they're like in real time. They look up this this
guy and he's on the sex registry, ah, sex offender registry, right,
(16:57):
So then they look up his address and they do
Google Earth. They zoom in on his home and he's
got bars on the front of his house, and then
when they went to the back of the house, there's
these huge barriers like as if there's like a little
a thing to walk on, like a patio, but blocked
off so nobody can see what's happening on the patio.
(17:20):
So they put it out on ti It was just
on Instagram and then got put on TikTok. Well it
kind of blew up, like everybody's talking about it. Long
story short, the police get involved. He's been arrested. He's
living there with another sex offender. There's two of them,
and they saw signs of sex trafficking with children. And
(17:40):
so that's as far as it's gone. But one thing
I love that my takeaway from this whole experience is
people are watching. People are paying attention when something doesn't
feel right, when your gut is like your alarm bells
inside your body are like, this is a weird guy.
Let me look them up. They're not just letting it go.
Well weirdos like people are following through.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
And I love that.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
I love the awareness that I feel if we all
are in right yeah, well you know, God, yes you're right.
Speaker 6 (18:06):
And I think that social media, this is when social
media is actually a really good thing. I saw these
reels and it was kind of it was set up.
It was set up where they would act like this kid, Okay,
so on the bench, there's a person that we don't know,
and then there's a kid sitting there. Well they're on
the phone, the adult is on the phone, or they're
doing something else. Somebody walks up to that kid and
(18:29):
start saying, hey, you want to I think your mom
wanted me to come get you, or your mom asked
me to come get you to take you over there.
And every single time, like you just said, our guard
is up. Every single time you would have people go wait,
like hang on, let me call you back or whatever,
and go do you do you know him? And the
kid would go no, and the men would stand up
(18:49):
and say, what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (18:53):
I am friends with her, I'm friends with their mother,
and she's asked me to come get he and they're
like getting.
Speaker 6 (18:58):
In between the kid and then say you will not
touch her. You better get on. You know, just it
is unbelievable. Now we know so much that we're like,
so where I would be that way if I'm sitting
on the bench in the park and a kid's sitting
there alone, I'd kind of be looking for the ride.
They're already like where's your mom? But if that happened,
you better believe I'm going to stand up and go
(19:18):
what excuse me?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
You know?
Speaker 6 (19:20):
They have these little videos and I love it because
it makes you even more aware. It gives people kind
of an indication.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
Well even on it's this furniture guy, it's exposing it.
You know, they're talking about it. I don't know if
I would have.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
I don't know, they know to it's Google, and.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
It's that younger generation. They're like so good with like investigators.
In fact, if there's somebody I'm trying to figure out
who somebody is, I'll call one of my kids and
I'll say, and who is can you find this person?
I mean thirty seconds. Oh, this is where they live,
this is what they do for a living. They've got
this many kids. It's crazy what they can come up with.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
It is yeah, you know what I mean, And a
little frightening from you know, from a civil liberty standpoint
of just because you can find that out about a
sex offender, that also means people can find out that
stuff about you even if you haven't done anything wrong.
So there is there is that flips. Yes, there's good
to it, but there's also you know, it's a tool, right,
and all tools can be used for good or all
(20:16):
tools could be used for evil. It's just the tool.
The tool is the Internet. The tool is all this
information that's true.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
And in this case, those kids, that red flag that
went up, because I'm sure he gets there's this, you know,
the gut feeling that God has given all of us.
They knew that something was off, something was off, something's
off with this cat.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Like six bunk beds.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
Yeah, and then add that maybe that's the tool right there.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
I know what you're saying, but maybe, you know, I'm
like trying to figure out, like who somebody is.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Whereas they had a.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Gut feeling something didn't feel right, and they followed through
on that, you know.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
And then and then when that person does show up
on the sex registry, now you got real alarm bells
going on. You've got a registered sex offender trying to
buy multiple bunk beds. He's not buying them for himself.
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Exactly, And you know, this is one of those things.
Kimberly and I grew up with our siblings in a bubble.
We didn't know this kind of stuff existed. So to
imagine that there's that's not the only person that's doing this.
So there's other people, there's other places this is happening.
So you've got to keep your eyes open. It's unbelievable
what's out there.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
And it is one of the things that's so disturbing
about the Biden administration, just letting in all those kids
across the border and they've lost four hundred thousand kids.
I have no idea where they are. If you like
to ask our American Mama was a question. Got to
our website American Ground Radio dot com, slash mamas and
click on the ask the Mama's button. Terry out of
Kimberly bro listen, thank you so much.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Thank you and.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Coming up next to your on American Ground Radio. We
are digging deep. We'll be right back. Stick around enjoining us.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Now, keep your ear to the ground.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Avaloni and Steven Parr,
working to ensure that talk radio of the people, by
the people, for.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
The people shall not perish from the earth.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Avalona and Stephen Parr.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Welcome back to American Ground Radio. Stephen Palmer, lewisar Avalon.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
So an ESPN rider, Huh, it's it's just this is
writing now also about the Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ads.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
ESPN is writing about ESPN the Sports Channel.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
Is writing about American Eagles new advertising campaign with Sydney Sweeney. Okay,
now look I will tell you I didn't know who
Sydney Sweeney was. Okay, didn't I and you know what,
I don't even know what she's in today other than
she's in this American Eagle jeens commercial.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
She's been a lot of films, she's you know, she
was actually on SNL, I guess last year did a
sketch about Hooters which was very funny viral.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
But this particular ad campaign with American Eagle, basically it's
it's a clever, playful pun. It says Sydney Sweeney has
great genes, which obviously plays you know, it's a double
entendre on the word genes as in, you know, genetics.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Yes, and blue jeans. And again, the reason she's famous
starts off with she's pretty. That's where it started. Now
she's also been able to show that she's a good actress,
but it started that she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
It's just ridiculous that the left is just mortified because
they're they're so called experts on on social media are
talking about how this is, this American Eagles advertising campaign
is about eugenics, right and fascism right. I mean, this
(24:10):
is a young girl wearing a pair of jeans. I
mean Brooks Shields did the same thing she did many many,
many years ago.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
And people didn't call her a fascist, then.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
I'm just saying, what is it now? She happens to
be white. Some folks say that, you know, some folks
have said, well, she's blonde haired and and and she's
white and she's blue eyed, and you know that there's
some messaging there that she's got the right jeans, the
right genetics because she's white.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
It's interesting how the left keeps going, oh, look, this
is a dog whistle to the racist right. This is
a dog whistle to the fascist right. Look if you're
the only one who hears the dog whistle, what does
that make you? Because I guarantee you people on the
right didn't see that ad and go, Hyle Hitler, that's
not what that was about. And it was just about
(25:00):
out she's trying to sell blue jeans and she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
And this ESPN writer, let's see this guy, his name
is hold on. Let's see. His name is David Dennis junior.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Dennis Junior.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
Okay, he is absolutely mortified, Yes, because he said hold on,
he said he said, at first he didn't think anything
of the Sydney Sweeney ads.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Good, but then he.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Said, actual scholars on messaging eugenics and fascism, explained what
was going on, and yes, I understood, and I became
mortified because, Hey, sometimes it's good to listen to experts.
What experts, Yeah, sometimes it's under It's good to have
some common sense to understand the people who claim to
(25:47):
be experts are nothing but fools.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Professing themselves to be wise. They become fools. It's in
the Bible, and we see it every day.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
It's just clever wording for an advertising campaign is let's
dig deep.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Democrat Senator Cory Booker took to the floor of the
Senate yesterday to rail against Democrats, his fellow Democrats, specifically
Senator Amy Klobashar, take a listen.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
This to me is the problem with Democrats in America
right now is we're willing to be complicit to Donald
Trump to let this pass through when we have all
the leverage right now there is to say, if you're
as passionate about police as we are, then pass bills
out of this body that will help the police officers
(26:38):
in Washington. They will help the police officers in Illinois,
they will help the police officers in New Jersey. They
will help the police officers. No, it don't be complicit
to the President of the United States, who we both
know doesn't understand that language. Oh please, oh please, don't
hurt Blue states. We are standing at a moment where
(27:02):
our president is eviscerating the Constitution of the United States
of America, and we're willing to go along with that today. No, no,
not on my watch. I stand against this. It is
a violation of our constitution for the President of the
United States to ignore the will of Congress and decide
(27:23):
which states are eligible to grants and which are not.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
First of all, that's not true. It's not going on,
not at all, whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Right. A couple other things. Democrats don't care about police.
You don't get to tell me. Democrat politicians care about
the police. The Democrats led the defund the police movement,
which Corey Booker supported. It's led to massive, increasing crimes,
specifically the murder of young black men by other young
black men. He's trying to gaslight the American people here,
but most people aren't buying it now. Donald Trump is
not trampling on the constitution. Barack Obama did, Hillary Clinton?
(27:52):
Did James call me? James Clapper, John Brennan? They did?
Whoever ran Joe Biden's administration did, but Democrats across the
country are currently trampling on the constituitle. The Democrat judges
Trump is not saying that Donald Trump is as yet
another attempt at gas lighting. But that's all peripheral stuff.
What is Corey Booker so upset about. Well, he's upset
that Donald Trump is threatening to pull funding from states
(28:14):
that violate the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution and refuse
to cooperate with immigration officials. He wants to block Trump's
ability to decide how funds are spent from the administration.
He wanted to put in amendments that would have bound
the president's hands, but fellow Democrats said, no, we don't
want to do that.
Speaker 5 (28:30):
President Trump is not trying to decide how the dollars
are spent. He wants to make sure that those dollars
are not spent in illegal manners.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
He doesn't want a state to say, I'm not going
to file federal law and then receive federal money exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
So it's not so much that he it's not like
he's dictating his whims to the state.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
These are the laws Congress has already pad they're already laws. Yes,
But the bigger problem for the Democrat Party is that
the intra party fighting you just heard on the Senate
floor is going on across the country. There's a wing
of the Democrat Party that says we aren't fighting Donald
Trump hard enough. And then there's another wing that says,
your fights against Trump are losing us support and we
(29:09):
need to adjust course. The Amy kloberstar that is basically
what she was saying. The Clobashar wing is actually closer
to being correct because there's a new Wall Street Journal
poll out this week, say Wall Street Journal that's facing
that ten billion dollars lawsuit by Donald Trump for defamation.
That poll says Democrats get lowest rating from voters in
thirty five years, Republicans preferred on most issues that decide election.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Look, let me just tell you something. All this in
fighting is fake.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
It is it is all fake.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
It is all It is all for optics, and it's
meant to distract. No, I think it's meant to distract
from the real issues and contain the full fallout. No
Corey Booker or others, they're not targeting Democrats or the
Democratic Party because they want the truth to be told.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
They're doing it.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
They're doing it because the polls say they have to
appear to at least care, and that's what democrats. Democrats
are all about caring, not about results. I get that,
But Corty Booker really, actually.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Genuinely disagree with Amy klobershar and what he said on
the floor had Amy kloberschar on the virgin of tiers
on the Senate floor. That was a real fight amongst Democrats.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Okay, that's fine. I don't trust any of that. I'm
just saying, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
But the problem is is that Cory Booker's choosing the
wrong side of this fight. Because the polls shows Republicans
in Congress are trusted over Democrats on the economy, on inflation,
on immigration, on illegal immigration, on tariffs, on foreign policy,
and Ukraine. Democrats are only favored on healthcare and vaccines,
and they weren't fighting over that the bill. Corey Booker
was angry about dealt with law enforcement and President Trump
(30:42):
saying he wants to pull money from jurisdictions that won't
follow the law when it comes to illegal immigration. He
chose these subjects that Democrats are at the biggest disadvantage
on to pick a fight with other Democrats.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I don't think democrats. I don't think Corey Booker's suddenly
grown a conscience and he all of a sudden he's
favorite of accountability.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
He's not. That's not what this is.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
What's going on. He in the Democrat Party is about survivability,
not accountability.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
You've got you've got some Democrats like Corey Booker who
says we've got to fight Donald Trump harder. And then
you've got a couple of other Democrats saying the more
you do that, the lower our poll numbers go. And
in this case, Cloverstar's right and Booker's dead wrong. We'll
be back.

(32:13):
Stephen Power Lewis, Well, I do have some very good news,
oh good, And I think it's more than just for
one single state, which happens to be California.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
I think it's good news for the entire country. Okay,
Kamala Harris has just announced she is not running for
California governor in twenty twenty six. She's not, so she's
cleared the deck, Okay for what many believe is a
third presidential attempt in twenty twenty eight. Now, I said
(32:46):
I had some good news. That's the not so good news.
That's the really not so good news.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Doesn't matter.
Speaker 5 (32:53):
What she'll she'll never Yeah, she'll never win.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
It's not that it's bad news for the country, well,
not going to win.
Speaker 5 (33:00):
No, No, I think it is because here's the thing. When
you have a national dialogue that is based in ineptitude
and just complete nonsense, you lower the IQ of the
discussion for everyone.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
All Right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
It's kind of like it's kind of like, you know,
if you were one of the smart kids in class,
you know, maybe you weren't. Maybe you were, but you
felt like the teacher, you know, was always talking, always
teaching to kind of the middle of the class, you know,
whereas if the classroom was filled with lots of smart people,
(33:44):
everyone in the classroom was you know, at a certain
IQ level or they were you know, they were good students,
then the teacher, you know, the conversation becomes more robust.
And I think when you have ridiculousness on the ballot,
or folks running that make absolutely no sense whatsoever, you
(34:06):
lower the I don't know that the intelligence level, okay,
of the discussion.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
So name three Democrats that would raise the level.
Speaker 5 (34:15):
But no, I can't do that either.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I think Joshuapiro might make some decent points.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Every now and maybe.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
But you think Gavin Newsom's raising Buddhaj, I think he's
raising the.
Speaker 5 (34:28):
Intellect Marvel Witness. No, not whatsoever. Okay, Well, I mean
when he's not on maternity leave.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I mean certainly Joe Biden wasn't raising the intelligence level
of the discussion. So Kamala is just kind of par
for the courts, for the AOC. I think she's raising
the intelligence. Jasmine Crockett, you think she's raising the intelligence level.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Here's the other party. Here's the other part of this.
She's already had two failed presidential runs, okay, and she's
this is how just absolutely ludicrous she is. She's still
banking on the idea that the American people haven't figured
out yet what she brings to the table, or more accurately,
what she doesn't bring to the table.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Look, Ronald Reagan ran for president and didn't get it,
and then he ran for president and didn't get it.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
You just you just compared Kamala Harris has failed presidential
bid just because Ronald Reagan's failed presidential bid?
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Are you nick getting me? Nixon lost to Kennedy, he
came back and won.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
We're going to continue to compare just because Harris. Well,
the point is just because you're running what has been
by But just seriously, the point.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Is, just because you've lost before doesn't mean you don't
have the right to ever run again.
Speaker 5 (35:35):
Okay, But the reason you lost is because you were
a complete idiot.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Well that's a very different thing. That's not what you
were arguing. You said, just because she's already run twice
and failed, that she shouldn't run again.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
I said some other things.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
Let's get to a brides bun I'm all right, getting
good grace, all right. So back in two thousand nine,
in Barack Obama, the EPA found that carbon dioxide was
a pollutant. They declared that officially.
Speaker 5 (36:06):
It's not you gotta get rid of it somehow, it's not.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
It is a naturally occurring gas that is essential for
all life on Earth. And while there has been an
increase in the amount of CO two in the atmosphere
since the mid eighteen hundreds, it's still less than one
percent of the gases in the air. And it's not
known how much that actually came from burning of fossil
fuels and how much was just naturally released from the
oceans and nature itself.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Okay, yeah, like you know, cow excrement.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
The Biden administration and the Obama administrations used the Endangering Fundament,
the Endangerment Finding to more heavily regulate cars and trucks
and power plants and basically the entire economy. They were
putting the brakes on the US economy in the name
of global warming. Well here's the bright spot. President Trump's
EPA is undoing that damage. Today. The head of the
(36:48):
EPA leads out and announced that the Trump administration would
reverse the endangerment finding by the end of this year. Quote.
With this proposal, the Trump EPA is proposing to end
sixteen years of uncertainty for Autumn and American consumers. In
our work so far, many stakeholders have told me that
the Obama and Biden epas twisted the law and ignored
(37:09):
precedent and warped science to achieve their preferred ins and
stick American families with hundreds of billions of dollars in
hidden taxes every year.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Warped science.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Oh, it's completely warped science. This whole idea that carbon
dioxide is driving global warming is warped science. It's based
off of computer models that have never been right. Never
have they been right now. What's more, this will get
the EPA to focus on the things it should have
been focused on, clean air, clean water. Environmentalism has become
synonymous with climate change, but those two things are not
(37:41):
the same. Environmentalism is about caring for the natural environment.
Teddy Roosevelt was an environmentalist. Climate change is about restricting
the development of mankind and enforcing population controls through socialist
means and fake science. This is from real clear energy.
By returning environmentalism to its original purpose of protecting the air, land,
and water, Trump administration will open the doors for those
(38:02):
targeted by the left as environmental villains, welcoming everyone right,
left and middle to actively engage in real environmentalism. Okay,
but I think that would be a bright spot. No,
it is.
Speaker 5 (38:14):
But isn't the federal government paying folks to basically pump
carbon dioxide into the ground.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
They are Biden administration to that based off of that
EPA finding.
Speaker 5 (38:24):
It's called carbon capture, carbon sequestration.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
You get rid of the EPA finding. There is no
justification for paying for carbon capture, which is a good
thing because shoving carbon dioxide in the ground is potentially
very dangerous. Well, certainly, and it's certainly costly and wasteful,
and apparently based on warped science, carbon dioxide is not
(38:47):
the leading driver of climate change. If anything, it's a
fourth order magnitude influencer. The sun is in charge, and
when we start to recognize that, that'll be a very
bright spot.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
You are listening to American Ground on radio.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Welcome back to American Ground Radio. Stephen Parmer Lewis.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
Apparently this is not politically motivated, but it still is
very shocking jarring. All Right, So a Republican lawmaker in Virginia, yes, apparently,
was doused in gasoline. Oh no, and set on fire
in his office.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
Oh no.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
He's a city councilman in Uh it's a city called Danville, Virginia. Okay,
and according to the reports, uh, the attacker threw five
gallons of gasoline on him before setting him on fire.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Oh my god.
Speaker 5 (39:51):
And it doesn't appear that you know, this is said.
The attack appears to be something personal, not related to politics. Politics,
but how do you know?
Speaker 1 (40:02):
I'm not sure i'd fully buy that. But Okay, that's
that's that happened in his office. M hm wow. Uh
to say what happened to the to the man who.
Speaker 5 (40:10):
Was I think he's recovering.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 5 (40:13):
But but at the same time, I think this goes
back to the fact that I think the left wants
to intimidate conservatives, okay from or Republicans, well, of course,
I mean getting involved in politics whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
That's the whole Maxine Waters. You get in, you see
a Republican, you get in their face, and you tell
them they're not welcome here. Remember she said that, Oh,
I thought.
Speaker 5 (40:34):
They were the Party of Democracy. I thought, well, I
thought they were the ones that were saving our republic.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
Well, just like North Korea calls itself a republic. Look,
they they only want democracy if they're the only people
in the ballot. If there's a Republican on the ballot,
they're all like whoa.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
When I say whoa, I mean wow.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
John Payne celebrated his ninetieth birthday this year by going
out for a round of golf. John's been playing for
thirty years after retiring from working in management. On the
sixth hole, John stepped up with his driver. On the
two hundred yard par three, he hit the ball cleanly,
and he hit it to the edge of a bunker
before it started rolling directly into the cup. John had
(41:22):
hit a hole in one the day after his ninetieth birthday.
What's more, it's the first time he's ever hit a
hole in one. John said, some people have never had
one in their life, and I can see why. I've
been playing for thirty years and only just got one. Now.
It's a miracle because it's very difficult. What a great story.
May your pursuit of happiness, bring you joy,
Settle up, Pardoner.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
This ain't no cattle drive.
Speaker 3 (00:03):
We're driving at the truth and chasing that sunset painted red,
white and blue.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
American Ground Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
We choose to go to the moon and do the
other thing, not because they are easy, but because they
are on. It is time for us to realize that
we're too great.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
A nation to limit ourselves to small dreams.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
I have a dream, but one day this nation will
rise up, live out the true meaning of its tree.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Abalone and Stephen Prokoo.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
One.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
This is American Ground Radio.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
Stephen par with lewisar Avalon ag So The New York Times.
New York Times recently admitted that the emaciated Palestinian child
that it featured on the front page of its newspaper. Yes,
and they portrayed this child. It's heartbreaking. But the New
York Times portrayed this child as a victim of starvation
(01:23):
in Gaza.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Yes, blaming the Israeli government for starving all the children
in Gods has become a very big story.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Reason and as sad as this story is, it has
nothing to do with being starved, because the child actually
suffers from a pre existing health issue, specifically a muscular
disorder that affects his nutrition and his physical development.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
So his body doesn't actually get the nutrition it needs
even though he's receiving food.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
But the New York Times didn't tell you that part. Now,
the correction to the story came after the image went viral.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Because the damage had already been done.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Well, because folks who are pro Palestinian, they started sharing
this all over the place saying, oh, this is a
symbol of this humanitarian crisis in Gaza, right and again.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Blaming Israel for all of the problems in Gaza, not
doing any blaming of Hamas, which, by the way, Israel
had actually set up some food stations, the United States
had set up some food stations, and Hamas was attacking
people who were trying to get the food from the
Israelis well.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
First of all, this whole for folks who aren't necessarily
following day to day this. The truth on the ground
in Gaza is very complex. There is a there is
an indeed a humanitarian crisis, but the root causes include
poor food distribution, not just a low supply. Because there's
(02:56):
some reports that say Hamas and armed groups like Hamas loot.
They do the aid in these convoys that are that
are being trucked into Gaza.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Hamas loots the aid one two. Hamas will attack anyone
who tries to get the aid when the aid comes
from Israel or the aid comes from the United States.
So there's a very complicated problem. And if you want
to get to the root cause of the famine going
on in Gods, if you want to call it that, yeah,
hamasage it's October seventh, well it is, that's the root call.
(03:29):
But the other part of this is Hamas refuses to
release Israeli hostages. Hamasage war. They have lost this war.
They have no hope of winning this war. They didn't
get the message. They didn't get the members. Not because
they don't actually care about their own people. Hamas does
not care about Palestinians. Hamas only cares about the leadership
of Hamas. That's it. They are a terrorist organization. They
(03:53):
do not care that that child that was on the
cover of the New York Times. Did Harmas do anything
to help that No, because Hamas does not care about Palestinians.
Hamas cares about killing Jews, whatever the costs. And these
fact is that is abhorrant.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, and these facts should have been in the story, yes,
but it wasn't. It wasn't. And you know, some people
say the New York Well, I think at one point
the New York Times was a trusted institution.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
A while back, the old Gray Lady all the news
that's fit to print.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
But the thing is, I don't know they will that
they will ever regain their credibility.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Well, this is the second time in a month when
they've had a massive error on a story. Remember just
last month, or I guess it was early this month.
Donald Trump filed a ten billion dollar lawsuit against the
New York Times for defamation because he says they printed
supposedly the birthday card, they never actually showed the birthday called.
(04:57):
They said, there's a birthday card where Donald Trump drew
up picture of a naked woman and told Epstein happy birthday.
And Trump told them ahead of time, that ain't my handwriting,
that's not my card, that's not how I write. I
never sent a birthday card to Epstein. I certainly am
not an artist to draw naked pictures of women. That's
not mine. Don't publish that. And the New York Times
(05:19):
went ahead and published the details of that card, even
though it was a completely made up story.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
But you know, generally speaking, when you when you lose trust,
let's just say, in a relationship.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Oh yeah, try this one for example.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yes, yeah, yeah, It's not enough just to say I
made a mistake, right, sorry, didn't mean to lie. I mean,
because you've got to now repair a broken bond, right,
and you've got to want it. You've got to want
to rebuild trust. You've got to act consistently with honesty,
(05:55):
and you've got to actively engage to demonstrate that. Okay,
And so I don't think and I say all of
that because I don't think the New York Times wants it.
They'll publish a retraction or they'll say we made a mistake.
But if you're lying and then you admit that you lied,
(06:17):
but you don't do anything to rebuild the trust, you
don't take any active steps to do that, right, I mean,
at that point, you're still a liar.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Well, the New York Times won Pulitzer Prize awards for
the whole Russia collusion story. What a joke. That absolute
So everything they published in those Russia collusion stories that
they won Pulitzer prizes for turned out to be completely
made up political propaganda. It was one hundred percent false.
(06:48):
The New York Times published it as if it was fact,
and they were awarded for publishing lies. Has the New
York Times come out and said, you know what, our
integrity as journalists is too big to celebrate falsehoods. So
we're going to return the Pulitzer Prizes that we won
because we know that our reporting was wrong, Our reporting
(07:09):
was faulty. We do not deserve this award. Where we're
turning these awards because we want to rebuild trust with
their audience. So the New York Times do that.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
But see, the line between journalism and entertainment is so blurred.
You know, I know I've asked this question before. You know,
why do people lie? Why would the New York Times
lie even when they know that there's better than a
fifty to fifty chance that folks are going to figure
this out?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Because I think they're going to get an advantage of it.
Speaker 5 (07:37):
But see, I think part of it is they're writing
that story is not written for you or for me. No,
it is written for an audience that is already primed
to believe the worst about anyone you know.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Or it's written for gullible people. It's written for gullible
people who just assume, oh my gosh, look at all
this horrible they're trying to The reason you write that
story is because you want to make Israel look bad.
That's why you were in this day and age. You
can't tell me, oh, we're just telling the truth. Really,
Russia collusion, you're not just out telling the truth. You're
(08:15):
out there. You're out there telling the lies that you like.
So the reason you're writing this is because you're trying
to turn Americans against Israel. That's why you did that story.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
And then what they do even you know, ironically, when
a lot of these organizations, like the New York Times
or institutions, whatever you want to call them, whenever they're caught,
whenever that deceit is uncovered, they really don't necessarily back down.
They often, as you saw in the Russia collusion conspiracy,
(08:48):
so called conspiracy, they double down, yes on the line.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Time and time again. At least they did print a
retraction on this one, but the damage already stack it
up next to all the others. The damage was already.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
What are you doing differently?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Right?
Speaker 5 (09:06):
I mean, What are you doing differently to not lie
to me next time?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
How are you what steps are you taking to get
rid of your Trump derangement syndrome and to stop assuming
that Israel is always the bad guy? What are the
two steps you're taking to battle those biases?
Speaker 5 (09:22):
And they'd have no audience.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Let's get to the top three things you need know
before tom All. First, you know before of all, the
US economy grew at a three percent rate in the
second quarter. That's according to the US Commerce Department. Today.
The GDP increased faster than most economists had expected. The
biggest reason for the climb in GDP was a decrease
(09:46):
in imports of more than five percent. Consumer spending increased
one point four percent from April through June. Despite the
good economic news, the Federal Reserve voted today to keep
interest rates at the same elevated four point five percent
for the fifth time this year.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
No, we are winning in this country. I mean the
US economy I mean is robust.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
We'd be winning more if we could get insurance interest
rates down to where people could afford to buy a home.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
We're getting there.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
That's eug getting this same flash sea your own Powell.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Well, it's it's incremental. But this EU deal that President Trump,
that was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Second thing you need to be from our President Trump
and now say twenty five percent tariff on India today
for all imports from that country. India has the world's
largest population and is the world's largest democracy, but the
US does relatively little business with them because of their
trade barriers, President Trump announced on social media. Quote, their
tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the world,
and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non monetary
(10:40):
trade barriers of any country. He also noted that India
buys massive amounts of military equipment and energy product from Russia,
which allows Russia to continue its war in Ukraine. He
said more tarifts for India's Russia dealings would soon be coming. Yeah,
I mean they need to play ball. Yeah, and Trump
is going to try and cut off Russia's money supply
bring them to the negotiating table by instituting secondary tariffs
(11:03):
on any country doing business with Russisi.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Says, essentially, India is funding that the Russian war with Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
So is China. And the third thing you need Before
a while, the US Sentate approved the appointment of Emil
Bov to the federal bench. Bov was a former defense
attorney for President Trump, and that made a lot of
Democrats angry at the appointment. As a result of his
nomination only passed on a fifty to forty nine vote.
The confirmation hearing has got nasty at time, with Democrats
claiming Bov was authoritarian and beholden to President Trump. Publican
(11:31):
Senator Chuck Grassey said, the vicious rhetoric, unfair accusations and
abuse directed at mister Bov by some on this committee,
it has crossed the line. Bob will now serve as
an appellate judge for the Third Circuit Court of Appeals
based in Philadelphia. Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
How many federal judges did Biden or Obama appoint that
are beholden to them or are their ideology?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Good point, We'll be back.
Speaker 2 (11:54):

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Welcome back to American Founderaated of Stephen Parmer luisar Abalone.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
You ever heard of a burn bag? A burn bag? Yeah,
that's not something you know, like an organized crime or anything.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I haven't.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
It's actually something in our federal government.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Some might liken to organized crime at.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Times sometimes, Okay, a burn bag.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
So these burn bags are not it's not just used
for storage like you know, for like documents, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That'd be a storage bag.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah, but they call them burn bags because these are
official federals. The burn bag is an official federal system
for destroying classified and sensitive documents after the retention period
has expired. So it's not really a bag, it's it's
it's kind of a term of art.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Okay, So you're gonna this is stuff that after the
retention period's over, you throw this like like you're gonna
burn it.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
You might burn documents it might be hard drives. Remember
remember uh Clinton cheats bit yep exactly. O. FBI director
kash Ptel just uncovered thousands of documents that that were
stashed away in dozens of burn bags in rooms left
(14:03):
unattended in FBI headquarters. So this is maybe from the
Obama administration, could be going back to the administration. So
apparently there was there was a room, you know, because
look the Department of Justice, big building, big building, big
big building, big building, and no doubt that there probably
(14:25):
are some very secret rooms, you know, places you could
stash stuff away closet I mean, you know, kind of
secret spy type activities, right, And that's what he has discovered.
All these burned bags that I mean, this is monumental.
And you may say, what what.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Does it have?
Speaker 5 (14:45):
What does it have in it?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah? What do they say?
Speaker 5 (14:47):
Well, many of them deal with the Durham Report and
the Russia, the whole Russia hoax documents, where all of
that originated from notes from the Oval Office. Oh ah,
you know, so Obama is like, oh this is ridiculous. Yeah, Well,
(15:08):
whomever was responsible to destroy these documents documents are hard
drives or didn't or phones? God only knows at this
moment what is in these burned bags other than kash Pateel.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Barack Obama has taken a whole bunch of documents from
the White House to Chicago, and they're in warehouses. They're
in Illinois waiting for his Presidential Library to be built.
The FBI rated mar A Lago over documents there. Why
hasn't anybody gone to Illinois to see what Barack Obama has?
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Maybe that's next.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
We got a question for American mamas. Dear mamas, did
you see the Texas furniture store employees that discovered a pedophile?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Well, let's ask ah American mama's Almabama and joining is
now our American Mama's turn Ediviale and Kimberly Burlison. This
I did not see, So you guys are gonna have
(16:09):
to fill me in.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
Oh, well, this happened in Texas just a few days ago,
and it's kind of wild because everything was in real time. Okay,
So this guy comes into a furniture store and he's
looking for bunk beds, but he's looking for bunk beds
that are that a double mattress can go on, and
they're on three layers. Of beds and he wanted to
buy six of those. So he's talking to the yea,
I know, I know beds.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
That are double layers, and he wants to buy six
of them.
Speaker 7 (16:33):
Yes, yes, So already it's like raises a flag that's weird.
So the guy that he's talking to that works there,
he's like, this is so weird. So they start filming this.
So he sits behind the table and he's like, this
is so weird. Let me look up this guy. So
they're like in real time. They look up this this
guy and he's on the sex registry, ah, sex offender registry, right,
(16:57):
So then they look up his address and they do
Google Earth. They zoom in on his home and he's
got bars on the front of his house, and then
when they went to the back of the house, there's
these huge barriers like as if there's like a little
a thing to walk on, like a patio, but blocked
off so nobody can see what's happening on the patio.
(17:20):
So they put it out on ti It was just
on Instagram and then got put on TikTok. Well it
kind of blew up, like everybody's talking about it. Long
story short, the police get involved. He's been arrested. He's
living there with another sex offender. There's two of them,
and they saw signs of sex trafficking with children. And
(17:40):
so that's as far as it's gone. But one thing
I love that my takeaway from this whole experience is
people are watching. People are paying attention when something doesn't
feel right, when your gut is like your alarm bells
inside your body are like, this is a weird guy.
Let me look them up. They're not just letting it go.
Well weirdos like people are following through.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
And I love that.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
I love the awareness that I feel if we all
are in right yeah, well you know, God, yes you're right.
Speaker 6 (18:06):
And I think that social media, this is when social
media is actually a really good thing. I saw these
reels and it was kind of it was set up.
It was set up where they would act like this kid, Okay,
so on the bench, there's a person that we don't know,
and then there's a kid sitting there. Well they're on
the phone, the adult is on the phone, or they're
doing something else. Somebody walks up to that kid and
(18:29):
start saying, hey, you want to I think your mom
wanted me to come get you, or your mom asked
me to come get you to take you over there.
And every single time, like you just said, our guard
is up. Every single time you would have people go wait,
like hang on, let me call you back or whatever,
and go do you do you know him? And the
kid would go no, and the men would stand up
(18:49):
and say, what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (18:53):
I am friends with her, I'm friends with their mother,
and she's asked me to come get he and they're
like getting.
Speaker 6 (18:58):
In between the kid and then say you will not
touch her. You better get on. You know, just it
is unbelievable. Now we know so much that we're like,
so where I would be that way if I'm sitting
on the bench in the park and a kid's sitting
there alone, I'd kind of be looking for the ride.
They're already like where's your mom? But if that happened,
you better believe I'm going to stand up and go
(19:18):
what excuse me?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
You know?
Speaker 6 (19:20):
They have these little videos and I love it because
it makes you even more aware. It gives people kind
of an indication.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
Well even on it's this furniture guy, it's exposing it.
You know, they're talking about it. I don't know if
I would have.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
I don't know, they know to it's Google, and.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
It's that younger generation. They're like so good with like investigators.
In fact, if there's somebody I'm trying to figure out
who somebody is, I'll call one of my kids and
I'll say, and who is can you find this person?
I mean thirty seconds. Oh, this is where they live,
this is what they do for a living. They've got
this many kids. It's crazy what they can come up with.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
It is yeah, you know what I mean, And a
little frightening from you know, from a civil liberty standpoint
of just because you can find that out about a
sex offender, that also means people can find out that
stuff about you even if you haven't done anything wrong.
So there is there is that flips. Yes, there's good
to it, but there's also you know, it's a tool, right,
and all tools can be used for good or all
(20:16):
tools could be used for evil. It's just the tool.
The tool is the Internet. The tool is all this
information that's true.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
And in this case, those kids, that red flag that
went up, because I'm sure he gets there's this, you know,
the gut feeling that God has given all of us.
They knew that something was off, something was off, something's
off with this cat.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Like six bunk beds.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
Yeah, and then add that maybe that's the tool right there.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
I know what you're saying, but maybe, you know, I'm
like trying to figure out, like who somebody is.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Whereas they had a.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Gut feeling something didn't feel right, and they followed through
on that, you know.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
And then and then when that person does show up
on the sex registry, now you got real alarm bells
going on. You've got a registered sex offender trying to
buy multiple bunk beds. He's not buying them for himself.
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Exactly, And you know, this is one of those things.
Kimberly and I grew up with our siblings in a bubble.
We didn't know this kind of stuff existed. So to
imagine that there's that's not the only person that's doing this.
So there's other people, there's other places this is happening.
So you've got to keep your eyes open. It's unbelievable
what's out there.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
And it is one of the things that's so disturbing
about the Biden administration, just letting in all those kids
across the border and they've lost four hundred thousand kids.
I have no idea where they are. If you like
to ask our American Mama was a question. Got to
our website American Ground Radio dot com, slash mamas and
click on the ask the Mama's button. Terry out of
Kimberly bro listen, thank you so much.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Thank you and.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Coming up next to your on American Ground Radio. We
are digging deep. We'll be right back. Stick around enjoining us.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Now, keep your ear to the ground.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Avaloni and Steven Parr,
working to ensure that talk radio of the people, by
the people, for.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
The people shall not perish from the earth.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
American Ground Radio with Lewis r Avalona and Stephen Parr.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Welcome back to American Ground Radio. Stephen Palmer, lewisar Avalon.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
So an ESPN rider, Huh, it's it's just this is
writing now also about the Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ads.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
ESPN is writing about ESPN the Sports Channel.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
Is writing about American Eagles new advertising campaign with Sydney Sweeney. Okay,
now look I will tell you I didn't know who
Sydney Sweeney was. Okay, didn't I and you know what,
I don't even know what she's in today other than
she's in this American Eagle jeens commercial.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
She's been a lot of films, she's you know, she
was actually on SNL, I guess last year did a
sketch about Hooters which was very funny viral.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
But this particular ad campaign with American Eagle, basically it's
it's a clever, playful pun. It says Sydney Sweeney has
great genes, which obviously plays you know, it's a double
entendre on the word genes as in, you know, genetics.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Yes, and blue jeans. And again, the reason she's famous
starts off with she's pretty. That's where it started. Now
she's also been able to show that she's a good actress,
but it started that she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
It's just ridiculous that the left is just mortified because
they're they're so called experts on on social media are
talking about how this is, this American Eagles advertising campaign
is about eugenics, right and fascism right. I mean, this
(24:10):
is a young girl wearing a pair of jeans. I
mean Brooks Shields did the same thing she did many many,
many years ago.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
And people didn't call her a fascist, then.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
I'm just saying, what is it now? She happens to
be white. Some folks say that, you know, some folks
have said, well, she's blonde haired and and and she's
white and she's blue eyed, and you know that there's
some messaging there that she's got the right jeans, the
right genetics because she's white.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
It's interesting how the left keeps going, oh, look, this
is a dog whistle to the racist right. This is
a dog whistle to the fascist right. Look if you're
the only one who hears the dog whistle, what does
that make you? Because I guarantee you people on the
right didn't see that ad and go, Hyle Hitler, that's
not what that was about. And it was just about
(25:00):
out she's trying to sell blue jeans and she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
And this ESPN writer, let's see this guy, his name
is hold on. Let's see. His name is David Dennis junior.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Dennis Junior.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
Okay, he is absolutely mortified, Yes, because he said hold on,
he said he said, at first he didn't think anything
of the Sydney Sweeney ads.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Good, but then he.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Said, actual scholars on messaging eugenics and fascism, explained what
was going on, and yes, I understood, and I became
mortified because, Hey, sometimes it's good to listen to experts.
What experts, Yeah, sometimes it's under It's good to have
some common sense to understand the people who claim to
(25:47):
be experts are nothing but fools.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Professing themselves to be wise. They become fools. It's in
the Bible, and we see it every day.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
It's just clever wording for an advertising campaign is let's
dig deep.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Democrat Senator Cory Booker took to the floor of the
Senate yesterday to rail against Democrats, his fellow Democrats, specifically
Senator Amy Klobashar, take a listen.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
This to me is the problem with Democrats in America
right now is we're willing to be complicit to Donald
Trump to let this pass through when we have all
the leverage right now there is to say, if you're
as passionate about police as we are, then pass bills
out of this body that will help the police officers
(26:38):
in Washington. They will help the police officers in Illinois,
they will help the police officers in New Jersey. They
will help the police officers. No, it don't be complicit
to the President of the United States, who we both
know doesn't understand that language. Oh please, oh please, don't
hurt Blue states. We are standing at a moment where
(27:02):
our president is eviscerating the Constitution of the United States
of America, and we're willing to go along with that today. No, no,
not on my watch. I stand against this. It is
a violation of our constitution for the President of the
United States to ignore the will of Congress and decide
(27:23):
which states are eligible to grants and which are not.
Speaker 5 (27:26):
First of all, that's not true. It's not going on,
not at all, whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Right. A couple other things. Democrats don't care about police.
You don't get to tell me. Democrat politicians care about
the police. The Democrats led the defund the police movement,
which Corey Booker supported. It's led to massive, increasing crimes,
specifically the murder of young black men by other young
black men. He's trying to gaslight the American people here,
but most people aren't buying it now. Donald Trump is
not trampling on the constitution. Barack Obama did, Hillary Clinton?
(27:52):
Did James call me? James Clapper, John Brennan? They did?
Whoever ran Joe Biden's administration did, but Democrats across the
country are currently trampling on the constituitle. The Democrat judges
Trump is not saying that Donald Trump is as yet
another attempt at gas lighting. But that's all peripheral stuff.
What is Corey Booker so upset about. Well, he's upset
that Donald Trump is threatening to pull funding from states
(28:14):
that violate the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution and refuse
to cooperate with immigration officials. He wants to block Trump's
ability to decide how funds are spent from the administration.
He wanted to put in amendments that would have bound
the president's hands, but fellow Democrats said, no, we don't
want to do that.
Speaker 5 (28:30):
President Trump is not trying to decide how the dollars
are spent. He wants to make sure that those dollars
are not spent in illegal manners.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
He doesn't want a state to say, I'm not going
to file federal law and then receive federal money exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
So it's not so much that he it's not like
he's dictating his whims to the state.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
These are the laws Congress has already pad they're already laws. Yes,
But the bigger problem for the Democrat Party is that
the intra party fighting you just heard on the Senate
floor is going on across the country. There's a wing
of the Democrat Party that says we aren't fighting Donald
Trump hard enough. And then there's another wing that says,
your fights against Trump are losing us support and we
(29:09):
need to adjust course. The Amy kloberstar that is basically
what she was saying. The Clobashar wing is actually closer
to being correct because there's a new Wall Street Journal
poll out this week, say Wall Street Journal that's facing
that ten billion dollars lawsuit by Donald Trump for defamation.
That poll says Democrats get lowest rating from voters in
thirty five years, Republicans preferred on most issues that decide election.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Look, let me just tell you something. All this in
fighting is fake.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
It is it is all fake.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
It is all It is all for optics, and it's
meant to distract. No, I think it's meant to distract
from the real issues and contain the full fallout. No
Corey Booker or others, they're not targeting Democrats or the
Democratic Party because they want the truth to be told.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
They're doing it.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
They're doing it because the polls say they have to
appear to at least care, and that's what democrats. Democrats
are all about caring, not about results. I get that,
But Corty Booker really, actually.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Genuinely disagree with Amy klobershar and what he said on
the floor had Amy kloberschar on the virgin of tiers
on the Senate floor. That was a real fight amongst Democrats.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Okay, that's fine. I don't trust any of that. I'm
just saying, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
But the problem is is that Cory Booker's choosing the
wrong side of this fight. Because the polls shows Republicans
in Congress are trusted over Democrats on the economy, on inflation,
on immigration, on illegal immigration, on tariffs, on foreign policy,
and Ukraine. Democrats are only favored on healthcare and vaccines,
and they weren't fighting over that the bill. Corey Booker
was angry about dealt with law enforcement and President Trump
(30:42):
saying he wants to pull money from jurisdictions that won't
follow the law when it comes to illegal immigration. He
chose these subjects that Democrats are at the biggest disadvantage
on to pick a fight with other Democrats.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I don't think democrats. I don't think Corey Booker's suddenly
grown a conscience and he all of a sudden he's
favorite of accountability.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
He's not. That's not what this is.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
What's going on. He in the Democrat Party is about survivability,
not accountability.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
You've got you've got some Democrats like Corey Booker who
says we've got to fight Donald Trump harder. And then
you've got a couple of other Democrats saying the more
you do that, the lower our poll numbers go. And
in this case, Cloverstar's right and Booker's dead wrong. We'll
be back.

(32:13):
Stephen Power Lewis, Well, I do have some very good news,
oh good, And I think it's more than just for
one single state, which happens to be California.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
I think it's good news for the entire country. Okay,
Kamala Harris has just announced she is not running for
California governor in twenty twenty six. She's not, so she's
cleared the deck, Okay for what many believe is a
third presidential attempt in twenty twenty eight. Now, I said
(32:46):
I had some good news. That's the not so good news.
That's the really not so good news.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Doesn't matter.
Speaker 5 (32:53):
What she'll she'll never Yeah, she'll never win.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
It's not that it's bad news for the country, well,
not going to win.
Speaker 5 (33:00):
No, No, I think it is because here's the thing. When
you have a national dialogue that is based in ineptitude
and just complete nonsense, you lower the IQ of the
discussion for everyone.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
All Right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
It's kind of like it's kind of like, you know,
if you were one of the smart kids in class,
you know, maybe you weren't. Maybe you were, but you
felt like the teacher, you know, was always talking, always
teaching to kind of the middle of the class, you know,
whereas if the classroom was filled with lots of smart people,
(33:44):
everyone in the classroom was you know, at a certain
IQ level or they were you know, they were good students,
then the teacher, you know, the conversation becomes more robust.
And I think when you have ridiculousness on the ballot,
or folks running that make absolutely no sense whatsoever, you
(34:06):
lower the I don't know that the intelligence level, okay,
of the discussion.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
So name three Democrats that would raise the level.
Speaker 5 (34:15):
But no, I can't do that either.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I think Joshuapiro might make some decent points.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Every now and maybe.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
But you think Gavin Newsom's raising Buddhaj, I think he's
raising the.
Speaker 5 (34:28):
Intellect Marvel Witness. No, not whatsoever. Okay, Well, I mean
when he's not on maternity leave.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I mean certainly Joe Biden wasn't raising the intelligence level
of the discussion. So Kamala is just kind of par
for the courts, for the AOC. I think she's raising
the intelligence. Jasmine Crockett, you think she's raising the intelligence level.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Here's the other party. Here's the other part of this.
She's already had two failed presidential runs, okay, and she's
this is how just absolutely ludicrous she is. She's still
banking on the idea that the American people haven't figured
out yet what she brings to the table, or more accurately,
what she doesn't bring to the table.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Look, Ronald Reagan ran for president and didn't get it,
and then he ran for president and didn't get it.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
You just you just compared Kamala Harris has failed presidential
bid just because Ronald Reagan's failed presidential bid?
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Are you nick getting me? Nixon lost to Kennedy, he
came back and won.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
We're going to continue to compare just because Harris. Well,
the point is just because you're running what has been
by But just seriously, the point.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Is, just because you've lost before doesn't mean you don't
have the right to ever run again.
Speaker 5 (35:35):
Okay, But the reason you lost is because you were
a complete idiot.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Well that's a very different thing. That's not what you
were arguing. You said, just because she's already run twice
and failed, that she shouldn't run again.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
I said some other things.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
Let's get to a brides bun I'm all right, getting
good grace, all right. So back in two thousand nine,
in Barack Obama, the EPA found that carbon dioxide was
a pollutant. They declared that officially.
Speaker 5 (36:06):
It's not you gotta get rid of it somehow, it's not.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
It is a naturally occurring gas that is essential for
all life on Earth. And while there has been an
increase in the amount of CO two in the atmosphere
since the mid eighteen hundreds, it's still less than one
percent of the gases in the air. And it's not
known how much that actually came from burning of fossil
fuels and how much was just naturally released from the
oceans and nature itself.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Okay, yeah, like you know, cow excrement.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
The Biden administration and the Obama administrations used the Endangering Fundament,
the Endangerment Finding to more heavily regulate cars and trucks
and power plants and basically the entire economy. They were
putting the brakes on the US economy in the name
of global warming. Well here's the bright spot. President Trump's
EPA is undoing that damage. Today. The head of the
(36:48):
EPA leads out and announced that the Trump administration would
reverse the endangerment finding by the end of this year. Quote.
With this proposal, the Trump EPA is proposing to end
sixteen years of uncertainty for Autumn and American consumers. In
our work so far, many stakeholders have told me that
the Obama and Biden epas twisted the law and ignored
(37:09):
precedent and warped science to achieve their preferred ins and
stick American families with hundreds of billions of dollars in
hidden taxes every year.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Warped science.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Oh, it's completely warped science. This whole idea that carbon
dioxide is driving global warming is warped science. It's based
off of computer models that have never been right. Never
have they been right now. What's more, this will get
the EPA to focus on the things it should have
been focused on, clean air, clean water. Environmentalism has become
synonymous with climate change, but those two things are not
(37:41):
the same. Environmentalism is about caring for the natural environment.
Teddy Roosevelt was an environmentalist. Climate change is about restricting
the development of mankind and enforcing population controls through socialist
means and fake science. This is from real clear energy.
By returning environmentalism to its original purpose of protecting the air, land,
and water, Trump administration will open the doors for those
(38:02):
targeted by the left as environmental villains, welcoming everyone right,
left and middle to actively engage in real environmentalism. Okay,
but I think that would be a bright spot. No,
it is.
Speaker 5 (38:14):
But isn't the federal government paying folks to basically pump
carbon dioxide into the ground.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
They are Biden administration to that based off of that
EPA finding.
Speaker 5 (38:24):
It's called carbon capture, carbon sequestration.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
You get rid of the EPA finding. There is no
justification for paying for carbon capture, which is a good
thing because shoving carbon dioxide in the ground is potentially
very dangerous. Well, certainly, and it's certainly costly and wasteful,
and apparently based on warped science, carbon dioxide is not
(38:47):
the leading driver of climate change. If anything, it's a
fourth order magnitude influencer. The sun is in charge, and
when we start to recognize that, that'll be a very
bright spot.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
You are listening to American Ground on radio.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Welcome back to American Ground Radio. Stephen Parmer Lewis.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
Apparently this is not politically motivated, but it still is
very shocking jarring. All Right, So a Republican lawmaker in Virginia, yes, apparently,
was doused in gasoline. Oh no, and set on fire
in his office.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
Oh no.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
He's a city councilman in Uh it's a city called Danville, Virginia. Okay,
and according to the reports, uh, the attacker threw five
gallons of gasoline on him before setting him on fire.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Oh my god.
Speaker 5 (39:51):
And it doesn't appear that you know, this is said.
The attack appears to be something personal, not related to politics. Politics,
but how do you know?
Speaker 1 (40:02):
I'm not sure i'd fully buy that. But Okay, that's
that's that happened in his office. M hm wow. Uh
to say what happened to the to the man who.
Speaker 5 (40:10):
Was I think he's recovering.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 5 (40:13):
But but at the same time, I think this goes
back to the fact that I think the left wants
to intimidate conservatives, okay from or Republicans, well, of course,
I mean getting involved in politics whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
That's the whole Maxine Waters. You get in, you see
a Republican, you get in their face, and you tell
them they're not welcome here. Remember she said that, Oh,
I thought.
Speaker 5 (40:34):
They were the Party of Democracy. I thought, well, I
thought they were the ones that were saving our republic.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
Well, just like North Korea calls itself a republic. Look,
they they only want democracy if they're the only people
in the ballot. If there's a Republican on the ballot,
they're all like whoa.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
When I say whoa, I mean wow.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
John Payne celebrated his ninetieth birthday this year by going
out for a round of golf. John's been playing for
thirty years after retiring from working in management. On the
sixth hole, John stepped up with his driver. On the
two hundred yard par three, he hit the ball cleanly,
and he hit it to the edge of a bunker
before it started rolling directly into the cup. John had
(41:22):
hit a hole in one the day after his ninetieth birthday.
What's more, it's the first time he's ever hit a
hole in one. John said, some people have never had
one in their life, and I can see why. I've
been playing for thirty years and only just got one. Now.
It's a miracle because it's very difficult. What a great story.
May your pursuit of happiness, bring you joy,

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
