David Brody
on American Sunrise, CPAC rolling on here in the Lone Star State, American Sunrise and RAV on the ground for all of it. We will have complete coverage throughout the show. Plus a possible final blow against Iran may now be under discussion with Carg Island, a key oil hub among the options being weighed. With President Trump still deciding and the president extending the strike pause to April 6, could the conflict be headed for a major escalation? This morning we discuss and later the Senate overnight while you were sleeping, passed the DHS funding bill, but leaves ICE and CBP out. Now the question is where does the fight go next? We've got that story. So much more as American Sunrise starts right here in Grapevine, Texas at CPAC Live right now. Good Morning America.
Dr. Gina
Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you.
Terrence Pace
Politics.
David Brody
President Trump is joining us live now from Florida.
Terrence Pace
We've got you covered.
David Brody
This is what it looks like to be a patriot.
Terrence Pace
We have to protect the American family.
Dr. Gina
The American dream is still alive.
David Brody
I'm David Brody.
Terrence Pace
I'm terrence.
Dr. Gina
And I'm Dr. Gina. Good morning, everybody. I'm Dr. Gina. We are live with you from CPAC 2026. We have David Brody and Terence Pace right here alongside me. We're here right inside. Saddle.
Terrence Pace
Good morning.
Dr. Gina
Yeah, good morning.
David Brody
Good morning. Great to have you back.
Dr. Gina
Great to be here.
Terrence Pace
You look great and glad you're feeling better. It's good to have you. Thank you.
David Brody
Oh, you're talking about Gina. I'm sorry. Thank you.
Terrence Pace
So look, guys, we had a great dinner last night. We were all able to get together and I'm sorry, but I'm still thinking about those biscuits we had. We had these biscuits, folks, that were cream cheese filled and garlic filled and
Dr. Gina
then there was cheese on top and they were so soft but crunchy just a little bit on the outside. Telling you, if you come here, you want those biscuits, just walk in the door. Don't worry about checking in. Don't pass. Right, show me the biscuits.
David Brody
Don't ever check into your hotel room. Just go right for the biscuits. Yeah, 100%.
Terrence Pace
They were great. But there's lots of news that's come out over the night. In your teases, you of course mentioned that the DHS funding a deal built, not bill deal, excuse me, that made it through Senate. We'll talk about that. But also Wall Street Journal out with this headline which basically is an exclusive saying that the Pentagon is wang sending another 10,000 ground troops to the Middle East. That, of course, would build on the military presence that's already there. It's likely going to be a conversation here at CPAC today in the halls as people kind of get together and watch as the Iran conflict, war, operation, whatever you want to call it, continues to expand.
David Brody
Yeah, yeah. Don't call it a war, whatever you do. Right. Tim Kaine and other Democrats and some Republicans are looking at that. Look, the Wall Street Journal has been pretty good on this. I mean, they were there with the 82nd Airborne when they talked about that, what, about a week, week and a half ago. And they were right. This is according to Defense Department officials. We'll see if it actually comes to fruition. Having said that, we know, guys, that the talk here at this conference has all been about, yes, we support the war, and a few other asterisks to see what happens next. And that, of course, is ground troops. And this is going to provide not just some consternation, but some real concern.
Dr. Gina
Yeah. I don't know if you saw Steve Bannon yesterday. Weren't you up there, too?
Emily
Yeah.
David Brody
Oh, hi, John. Hey, John.
Terrence Pace
Hey, John. Weren't you there, too?
John Solomon
I was. I was at the restaurant last night. I had the same biscuits. I just want to point that out. I agree with.
David Brody
By the way, John Solomon joins us.
John Solomon
That was the best.
Terrence Pace
We were going to do this a little different.
Dr. Gina
I like the way it happened. I forgot this was tv.
John Solomon
That was awesome.
Dr. Gina
You were saying? I was saying I got brain swiped by the biscuit comment. Okay. No, so, yeah. And so Steve asked the audience yesterday, why don't you just tell this, John, because you were actually there and it was 35% thought that the war was a good action. Everybody else didn't. And even those who did didn't want any expansion of it. They wanted to wrap it up and send them home.
John Solomon
Yeah, I think that's right. You look at the polling now, you know, an informal thing out of group. Here is one sense. If you look at the polling, 85% of President Trump's base currently supports the operation. Iran want to get it done. But the second you extend this past May, the second you put boots on the ground, those numbers come way down below 50% in his base. When you take that across the country means smaller. It is a challenge for the President to take any further escalation from where he is now. The thinking on these troops is one, it could be a negotiating plague. Hey, Iran, we're so certain that if you don't make a deal with us, we'll just come in and take you out. The second is they may try to do an operation on Karg Island. And once you have Karg island, you have basically control of the entire Hormuz. Strait of Hormuz. And that's the one strategic objective. I think it's still not in the war checkbox. I think the president has all optionality, but I don't think he's made a decision to go any further than where he is. The leadership is really decimated. The military is decimated Iran. That is the only question is what way do you go on Hormuz? And I think they're looking at two options. One, can they create an oil and natural gas blockade around Iran? Go around Iran and get all the countries that are affected quick enough that you don't have to use the harmonies, and then Iran's got no leverage. If they can't do that in a time where the economy can survive it because the longer this goes on, the higher gas prices go. So option one is to try to find a way to very quickly ramp up lng, get Europe and our Asian partners the gas and oil that they need. If they can do that without taking Carg island, they don't do it. If they don't feel like they can do that and the economy is going to take a tremendous hit for three, four months, then he's going to keep that, keep that option open to go in and do car guy line.
Terrence Pace
The other issue that's come out overnight, President Trump saying he's going to even delay potentially attacking the Iranian infrastructure even more.
John Solomon
That's right.
Terrence Pace
In order to allow, I guess, diplomacy to try to work itself out. Is that realistic? I have doubts that you can, you can practice diplomacy with Iran, but obviously the President sees it differently and he's in the room but. Or his, his proxies in the room. So your thoughts?
John Solomon
It's. Listen, negotiating with Iran is an extraordinary challenge because what they say is what they don't mean. What they don't mean isn't what they say or what they do mean. They never say. They clearly are. Got Iran's attention. There's been a significant decimation. Now, 15, 16 years ago, I actually negotiated with the mullahs. They took one. I literally did. I had one of my reporters captured when I was the editor of the Washington Times. Okay, they're pragmatic at the end of the day. In fact, the last part of my negotiation was, what are you going to say about us when you get your reporter back? That's all they cared about, public relations now, one reporter, an entire country, the future of the mullahs, the future of the very different negotiations. But there is a pragmatism to them that sometimes when the bottom line gets the bell rung, they are going to make a deal. I'm not sure they're at rock bottom yet that they're ready to make that deal. We got Iran to rock bottom with our reporter. We just made it so powerful, our story, that they were like, we don't want the bad press anymore. The President has worn them down pretty big. They've lost a lot of leadership, a lot of hardware. And one of the things that could happen is you could see the President stop bombing for a few days. Some of the Iranian people come out, try to take their government back. That's going to be a difficult moment. The IRGC comes out of their hiding and we come in with close ear support and we wipe out some of the irgc. Then the Iranians go back and like, no, that wasn't a good idea. I think this is a cat and mouse game for a while. I think it's mostly negotiation. That said, if the President doesn't think he has a fair negotiating partner, he's proven time and again he'll do whatever it takes. Taking Carg island is going to be a bloody option. It's not going to be a casualty free event for us.
David Brody
John. I think the question is negotiating with who exactly? The cardboard Ayatollah who is running this thing right now?
John Solomon
I think right now, listen, the IRGC is still running the country. They are still firmly in charge. The negotiators are a couple of civilians, someone in the Foreign Ministry and then someone in the Parliament. And the President has felt there was some goodwill. They allowed 10 ships to go through. That was a big concession on Iran's part. There's been some other gestures back and forth. There's been some exchange of peace plans. You never take Iran's official statements as the official position. That's just their.
David Brody
Unless you're a Democrat.
John Solomon
Unless you're Democrats or cnn. Yeah, which I think he ran one of them if I remember correctly. But at the end of the day, if the civilian leadership is sending signals that they are and there are two clear people that seem to have the authority, they're able to go back and get answers and come back, there's something going on, it's going to be I trust, but verifying. If the President doesn't think he can verify these things or one deal comes through and it doesn't happen, all options are on the table for him. He has proven time and again he is going to get the job done. I think his thinking talking to people around him as late as last night is that we've gone this far. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to make the Middle east peaceful for a century. And is it worth some American bloodshed to do that? He has to make that calculus. He has to look at the people said no long wars. This isn't a long war, short war. But I'm going to get it done. If he's going to do this, he's going to have to have a conversation with the American people either as it begins or just before it begins. But I don't think he's there yet. I think there's a lot of negotiating going on and the question is can he get a deal that past American Presidents can't get.
Dr. Gina
The one thing that, that is striking about this is how President Trump will be like, oh, we're, we're almost there. We're right. We're right there. We're, we're, you know, let, believe me, they want to negotiate. And then they deny that all over the place. Do they not understand that that's really bad PR for them, the Iranians? It doesn't help them at all.
John Solomon
Oh, yeah, well, the Iranians have never carried about, you know, their perception. I mean, the Iranians have a problem on their own soil right now. I'm not sure their people believe that there's command and control of the country anymore. There's very little water, there's very little food going around. The country's in a pretty difficult. And this is a country whose people, though 47 years under tyrannical rule, are still very Westernized. I mean, they want to have a good life. They're very much like Americans in many ways. Not the ruling mullahs or the irgc, but the everyday Iranians are. The situation on the ground is very, very bad. So some of the propaganda is designed to project inside the country what it is. Hey, we're still in control here, guys. That's why they executed a few people very publicly. There's two or three, but, you know, athletes, people who didn't deserve to be executed to just show that they're in charge. I do think the Iranians are in a much different, more difficult bargaining position anytime in the last 20 years. That doesn't mean they're going to do the right thing. It doesn't mean the. Even if the civilian side says we're done, we're going to make a good deal. I don't know how. The irg, these IRGC guys, they are really hard to do.
Terrence Pace
They're radical.
John Solomon
Oh, they are dying. Is for them a promotion. Donald Trump has no problem promoting. I mean, he might be willing to take them all out. He's not afraid of that. But I think he would like to find the right deal. The first time will come when a difficult side or difficult issues resolved with the civilian negotiators and they go back to the IRGC if they get a no. That's when you know that maybe Donald Trump's going to flick the next election.
Terrence Pace
Hey, John, before we let you go, want to talk about some investigation that you've done? You actually uncovered that the Ukrainians funded President Biden's, former President Biden's campaign. Talk a bit more about that. We don't Know if I saw the headline, I didn't read the story yet.
John Solomon
It's kind of crazy. We don't know. We all we know is that our government, the National Security Agency, intercepted a series of communications with senior Ukraine government officials talking about their conversations with usaid, that's our foreign aid arm of the State Department. This is back in 2022. So Joe Biden's already President, this isn't the Hunter Biden stuff. And the conversation went something like this. Hey, we're going to send a 200 million dollar grant from USAID to Ukraine for a clean energy project. Now, I don't want you to say anything, but they're in the middle of war with Russia. I don't think they were worried about clean energy at the time. Don't worry about the money. Take the money, give it to these contractors laundered back into the United States, and then we'll put 90% of that $200 million into Joe Biden. In the Democratic National Committee's conference now, they all this intercept was hid from the government. It was hit from most. The FBI never heard about it. Usaid, I never heard about it. Tulsi Gabbard, recently declassified it, sent it to usaid, said, hey, if you find documentation that a grant like this happened, you send it to the Justice Department, we prosecute everybody. What's interesting about this is that this was first discovered in around November and December of last year by the Intelligence Committee. Right around that time after it was discovered, you saw President Zelensky's Chief of staff, Mr. Yarmak, suddenly resign. And they said it was over a energy corruption probe. Now, I don't know if the two are related or not. We don't know that. Right. But I say it only because there's a long history of Ukraine doing corrupt things like this. It's sort of the cultural norm. We just don't know yet whether it happened. But the investigation's underway. We do know the intercepts occurred. I got a copy of the intercepts and I was able to report every word in them. And they have right down to American companies names who was involved. So it should be easy to figure out.
Dr. Gina
John Solomon. Never boring. Never boring. Not the boring guest. That's why I got to him so fast.
David Brody
I mean, who can talk about Iran and roles. If you think about it, those roles.
John Solomon

Welcome back to CPAC 2026. We are live on the ground here at CPAC for all of the action. We of course are in Grapevine, Texas, just outside of Dallas. Haven't seen not one Grapevine but it's called Grapevine here as always. Have you really.
David Brody
Of course you have.
Dr. Gina
Yes, there was a grapevine right outside the hotel where we were. May have been smoking cigars. I mean I wasn't.
Terrence Pace
Okay.
Dr. Gina
There was There were tons of grapevines actually out there.
Terrence Pace
Have you seen the grapevines?
Emily
I have not. Gina will have to show us later on.
Terrence Pace
There you go.
David Brody
We go off the rails so quickly on this show.
Terrence Pace
We said, we're probably going to have more biscuits talk. And we eventually went to Grape Vines. Anyway, here are some of the highlights. In case you're not here with us, we want to share some of our experiences. CPAC 2026 got underway yesterday. There's so many people from around the world here. This isn't just a US Conference. It truly is a global conference.
Emily
You see that? There is definitely some conversations that need to be had. So this is the place to do it.
Cancer Recovery Researcher
Real America's voice at the time.
Terrence Pace
Same CPAC 2026. Awesome conservative conference.
Public Podcast Sponsor
This is what RAV is all about right here, folks.
David Brody
How we doing? CPAC? Let me make some noise. Politics is the roads you drive on. It's the schools your kids go to. It's the food you eat, the air you breathe. And if you have a, you know, a chance to keep your freedom. So I think politics, if you avoid politics, politics is going to catch up to you.
Dr. Gina
That music is so powerful. Where words fail, music can penetrate. And the left knows this. That's why the tech suppression, the cancel culture, that's why they fight. When we get to number one on the charts, it's an unbelievable hard, extra hard battle.

Terrence Pace
Cpac 2020-2620-2026-2020 6.
David Brody
What year is that?
Terrence Pace
Kind of one, right? The year of our Lord, 2026. CPAC, obviously. Obviously. Already off to a blazing start. Emily, Dr. Gina David here with me. Emily, your thoughts so far. Some of the highlights of the program so far for you.
Emily
I think Rob Schneider being here has just been absolutely incredible. I had a chance to meet him very briefly last night, and he's one of those celebrities that, you know, sometimes they kind of brush you off and you're like, okay. But he was so down to earth and so cool and so kind of. And I think that was the most beautiful thing about CPAC was seeing all of these different conversations and so many people coming together to really shape the conservative movement.
Dr. Gina
Gina, catching up with old friends for me, I mean, I've literally been doing this since I was about 20 years old. And I think that's awesome. Yeah. Yeah. I love you. Tears. What if I told you this morning how much I love you? Yeah. And so. So for me, it's seeing all the faces and catching up on how their kids are doing and how their families are and what work they're doing now and how they feel about things going on on the national level. That's a fun conversation, too.
David Brody
You know what I love? And Emily, you mentioned Rob Schneider, which makes me think about Rav doing not just news. Right. But culture, politics, comedy, music, the whole gamut. Because it's all intertwined. Right? It's all intertwined in American. In the American fabric. So I think that's where Rav is really ahead of the curve, if you will, on all of this. To me, what I'm going to be watching here in the next day or two, especially when those straw poll results come out. And we'll talk about the straw poll. But I remember the straw poll last year. In one year ago at CPAC, JD Vance had 61% support as to who you want to see in 2028. Marco Rubio had 3%. I am curious to see what those numbers are a year later. So just so you know, the numbers were 61% Vance, 12% Steve Bannon, he was second, 7% Ron DeSantis, 3% Rubio. What are they this year?
Dr. Gina
Is it.
David Brody
That is going to be a huge story.
Dr. Gina
I have strong opinions. Is it too late to vote?
Terrence Pace
I think we'll ask a great question. Yeah, he'll be here. But I do believe the straw poll is technically still open.
David Brody
Yeah, I think it open. It goes until a couple hours before they.
Terrence Pace
Exactly. Yeah. Yeah, it's going to be interesting. That's actually an interesting question that you just raised. And quite honestly, there's point a part of me that wants to continue that because there are a lot of people who believe that it's not just a shoe in that J.D. vance won't just be a shoe in that he may actually get a challenge from Marco Rubio to potentially run, which I think is a fascinating conversation to have.
Dr. Gina
But if I could be someone entirely different.
David Brody
Yes.
Dr. Gina
I'll tell you, I. I remember. So I've been here for all of these straw polls, obviously, since I've been here since I was three years ago when I was 20. And the straw poll is always kind of one of the most exciting aspects. But what I want to say about it is I remember the year that Donald Trump won the straw poll, okay. And the national news media lost their minds. They could not believe that CPAC would have straw polled Donald Trump because it was, it was, it was like such a long shot at that point.
David Brody
And by the way, Ted Cruz is going to run. I know that's not going to be popular here at cpac. Necessary necessarily, but Cruz is going to run. He's going to speak Saturday, by the way, at 12:30. And also there will be an independent candidate running. And it could be Marjorie Taylor Greene. Marjorie Taylor Greene. It could be a Tucker Carlson, someone in that quote. America First. I'm talking about.
Jason Redmond
I know mag.
David Brody
America First. There will be someone there as well.
Dr. Gina
Oh, our morning conversations are going to be so spicy.
Terrence Pace
It's going to be, it's going to be a fun conversation to have and fun to watch and cover for you. All right, folks, look, we got to take a quick, quick break, pay some bills. We're back in two minutes.

Everything's bigger in Texas. We are here in Grapevine, Texas. Gina has spotted a grapevine so we can confirm we are in Grapevine, Texas. All right, welcome back, everybody, to American Sunrise. As you might imagine, we see quite a few American flags here at cpac, along with people dressed in all of the red, white and blue when you walk around, for sure. Now, we also, interestingly, have seen some Iranian flag flags. These are Iranian Americans here who are extremely thankful for what America and Israel are doing right now to hopefully usher in freedom to the people of Iran. Here are some footage I actually recorded on my iPhone. You know, I'm just like one of these stalker people that goes, why are
Terrence Pace
you just going to point out on my iPhone knowing that I'm an Android guy?
John Solomon
Really?
Terrence Pace
That's right. Really just going to poke the bear like that.
David Brody
Go ahead. I'm sorry, let me rephrase that. I, I took it on my non Android phone. They were chanting, the Iranian Americans were chanting, thank you, Trump. Thank you, Bibi, Take a look at this.
Dr. Gina
Thank you, Mimi.
David Brody
They've been very vocal here at CPAC for sure. Join us now. Jason Redmond, I, you know it says retired Navy seal, sorry, never retired. You know, you are knit once and for all, a Navy seal. We thank you for your service.
Jason Redmond
Thank you, guys. Thanks for having me on.
David Brody
Yeah, talk to us a little bit about what you've seen here at cpac. I mean, I've seen those Iranian Americans going around. They've been vocal. They're very thankful with going on here.
Jason Redmond
Well, and I think CPAC embodies exactly what the Iranians are chanting about. It is this embodiment of freedom. And that is what makes America so amazing. That's why at CPAC and so many of us understand the power of freedom. I think there's a lot of individuals on the left and you look at, I'm a Virginia resident. You look at right now what Abigail Spanberg, out of control is trying to do to the state of Virginia. I'm trying to explain to people there. I'm like, you're giving away your freedom. You think, think it's a good thing until it impacts you. And once you've given away your freedom, it's almost impossible to get it back. So for the Iranians that are there, I hope that President Trump stays committed to this mission. I hope he doesn't give in to the pressure of oil prices and all the things, you know, the left that's trying to say, oh, we're in this quagmire, we need to finish the job. We need to take care of the Iranian people, and we need to make sure freedom starts to spread across the Middle East.
Terrence Pace
I hear you loud and clear. Finish the job. What does that look like? And I think you've got a unique perspective as someone who's been in a war zone. The rest of us, we're civilians and we're looking from the outside in. Without really having context, if you will, from a military operation, what does finish the job mean for you?
Jason Redmond
Well, in my opinion, finish the job means we've got to continue to topple this Iranian regime. And there's a lot of people right now, they're like, wow, we've destroyed so much of their military. And there is going to be a decision point that has to occur soon. And the reality is we may not be able to do everything that's possible just by an air campaign. That is the reality.
Terrence Pace
But I think troops on the ground is a strong possibility.
Jason Redmond
I think it is something that I hope that the president will evaluate this. Trust me, I don't want to see war. I don't want to see our troops go in harm's way. I was one of those troops. I've lost friends. I was severely wounded. At the same time, freedom in the hardest times must be preserved and it must be fought for. And I tell you what this Iranian regime is committed to. I don't care what they say. For over almost 40 years, they have said, destroy Israel, destroy America. If you don't think now that these hardliners aren't committed to getting a bomb and to try and that is the only way that they can maintain security and maintain preservation of what they have right now, I think we need to topple this regime. We owe it to the Iranian people and we owe it to the freedom in the Middle East.
Dr. Gina
I know that you're not a political scientist, but there was a poll here yesterday, and only about 35% were the ones saying, Finish the job. Here at CPAC of MAGA, basically, these people still support the president. They just are very concerned about how long this work could go. And the biggest thing is the price, not the money. I mean, the money matters, but the price, the human lives. If we try to take Car island, that will mean a major loss of life. How major is that? And how much of a consideration should the midterms be in President Trump's mind?
Jason Redmond
Well, when we think about loss of life and we think about military impact, I mean, let's go all the way Back throughout the history of our country. I mean you look at World War II, national global war, and I, and I think we lost about 150,000Americans. That's a massive impact. You start moving across. Over time, we've reduced that. Vietnam, we lost 50,000. In my war, the global war on terrorism, we lost just over 7,000. Every single American life is a tragedy. I have 30 names of friends I serve with, including my best friend who did not make it home. That being said, the cost of freedom is high. I don't want. I fought against terrorism because I didn't want my children to have to face it someday in this country. That is the problem. If we don't finish the job someday, I'm getting ready to have my first grants out. I'm super excited about that. And someday if we don't finish the job, my grandson could be fighting against the Iranians again because we didn't take care of this, this now, we didn't finish the job. I think that's what people need to understand. It is, it is a. I don't want this to sound trite. It is a short term cost for long term gain.
David Brody
It's a good point. I mean, if you think about it, everybody talks about America first. Of course we're America first. But what if there's no America? You know? So in other words, we could be. We could lose Los Angeles, we could lose New York, we could lose a big city. I mean if Iran had those intercontinental ballistic missiles. So anyhow, gotta run. I don't know, I just left it there. I just wanted to have the last say. Just kidding. Jason Redmond, great to have you.
Jason Redmond
Thank you guys. Honored. Thank you guys for having me.
David Brody
Thank you for your service. All right, so here on a real America's voice at CPAC 2026, we remember what 1776 truly means. It was the year Americans stood up to the British crown and declared that liberty was not negotiable. It was God given. So that same spirit is alive and well in this room today. Carry it with you with The American made 20 ounce 1770 shore tumbler. Not 1776 ounces. It's 20 ounces, but that's the name of it. Laser engraved right here in the USA double wall insulated to keep your drink cold for 24 hours or hot for 8 hours. It's built tough.

I think when you're diagnosed with cancer you crave a semblance of normalcy and control. And so work allowed me to be me.
Danielle Buck
So I think it's really important that companies stay flexible.

Dr. Gina
for healing, learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com. All right everybody. Welcome back to American sunrise. I'm Dr. G. We are so happy you are enjoying the ride with us. Time now for today's health news. It is sponsored by the Wellness Company and under the microscope today a new study says spending more time outdoors might help you eat better. Okay, just listen. Researchers from Drexel University found adults who regularly spend time in nature reported eating more fruits and vegetables and making healthier food choices. Isn't that interesting? The study looked at different types of nature exposure, from seeing green space to visiting parks or forests. Researchers say lower stress and less anxiety may help explain the link between the time outdoors and better eating habits. I don't know about you guys, but when I'm outdoors, all I can think about is s' mores and a campfire. And s' mores are not exactly the definition of eating healthy.
David Brody
Very Ozarks of you.
Dr. Gina
Yes, very.
Terrence Pace
I don't know about you, Dr. Gina, but when I'm outside, all I can think about is getting back inside.
Dr. Gina
No, Terrence, no. You have to spend more time outside. It's so good for you.
David Brody
By the way, I eat better inside and outside. It doesn't matter.
Dr. Gina
Yeah, me either. I just like to eat, which is exactly what we do a lot of here, by the way. The Trump administration has brought a lot of positive changes, as you know, when it comes to fixing our broken health care system. But the reality is there's only so much the government can do. And if we really want to make America healthy again, it's going to start at home with each of us. And that's where the Wellness Company comes in.

Dr. Gina
All right, all right. Department of Homeland Security says ICE arrested multiple alleged sex child. Child sex traffickers. Okay, I can't even talk today. Child sex offenders in a single day. As part of its Make America Safe Again campaign, A DHS release said five of those arrested were in the country illegally and had prior convictions and child sex crime cases. I want to bring in the founder of Jacob Boyens Ministries and a pastor for Mercy Culture Church. Jacob. You know, I really, I really want. I really feel like it's important off the top to change the vernacular from human trafficking, child sex trafficking, to slavery, because it is sex slavery. That's what we're talking about. The slave trade in the world right now is higher than it's ever been. And if you add in those numbers, it's insane as to how many people don't realize, but that's what this is.
Yaako
Good morning. You look really good early in the morning. Gentlemen, you're amazing. Thank you for how you serve our country. This country is worth fighting for. And we say that we're talking about our youth. And Satan's objective is always to entrap and slave, enslave people. We have more slaves today in this country than ever before in human history. It takes a different format. Slavery, it's a global, you know, real epidemic. It's a real problem globally. And it is entrapment. It is slavery. And if you look at what an administration did for four years, it was a state sponsor of slavery. It was state sponsored slavery. And we have to understand what that means for the, for Americans, for us as citizens. I'm an immigrant. I love this country. I'm a legal citizen of the United States. I love this country. But when the state endorses slavery, when the state sponsors slavery, funds it, your society is collapsing. And so the restoration that's happening in our country is biblical, it's spiritual. That's what's happening at the moment. We are restoring dignity and life, womb to tomb.
Dr. Gina
And this is why I think the Epstein files matter so much to me personally. This is why I can't forget about it. Because the Epstein files are so important. Millions of pages of documents. But that is just a small part of what's happening today. It has gotten worse and worse because the criminals got away with Epstein.
Yaako
Exactly. When justice doesn't prevail, let me tell you real quick, the nation with the strongest laws against the exploitation of persons on the planet, we don't prosecute the crime. We only prosecute sex crimes at a rate of 16% at a state level, 92% at a federal level. But we've only prosecuted 184 cases a year for the last two years straight.
David Brody
That's insane.
Yaako
So we just published a white paper with Aiken law on this. We're working to get an established human trafficking special court to prosecute pedophiles and predators to choose, take sex offenders off the street. Not like Gavin Newsom releasing them into the street. There are some of us in this country that frown upon slavery, and there are some that are endorsing it.
David Brody
The border czar, Tom Homan, was here at cpac. He talked about what the Trump administration is doing somewhat on this front. I say somewhat. They're doing a lot. But here's what he said. Take a look. The men and women of ICE and
Tom Homan
FBI have been busting their butt trying to find these kids. And they've. They found right around 145,000 missing children.
Dr. Gina
And I believe.
John Solomon
And that's.
Tom Homan
And let me say, son, that's 145,000 missing children that the last administration lost and weren't even looking for. And did we rescue them out?
David Brody
Look, some of these children were with
Tom Homan
their parents, just hiding out. But many, too many, were victims of sex trafficking, being sold for sexual and being in forced labor. President Trump's leadership literally saved thousands of young children's lives. And we're not done. I have promised the president, the president
David Brody
promises the American people.
Tom Homan
We'll do everything we can to run down every lead. And when we finish the leads, we'll do it again until the last day of this administration.
David Brody
You got my word. We will not give up on this effort to find every one of them. And that's. And that's great. And now Doj and Pam Bondi. Let's go. Let's get some of these prosecutors.
Yaako
That's right. The Department of Justice has to make the laws that are on the books be executed to the full extent of the law. They've got to support the judges, the prosecutors at state level. And then the migrant children. We have to find the migrant children. But then, Doctor, once you find a child that's been trafficked, the amount of work to restore that life, the trauma care, it is a monumental task that's on our hands here.
Dr. Gina
And you make such a great point. And they. And the horrible thing is so many offenders have been offended. And so you really have to stop that cycle with all of the abused children so that they don't also grow up in abuse. Yaako, you've been on this from day one. You were talking about this when I didn't even know what it was.
David Brody
That's right.
Dr. Gina
And we appreciate you. God bless you. God bless you.
Yaako
God bless you.
John Solomon
Thank you.

Welcome back. Coffee pods are easy, but most of them are just caffeine and nothing else. Rejuvenate pods are built differently. They're clean pods infused with CA akg, a compound linked to longevity, metabolism and deep cellular energy. It's the easiest way to get better focus, smoother energy and long term benefits without changing your routine. Routine I choose them because they match the lifestyle. I want more energy, more clarity and more intention in how I start my day. If you're going to drink coffee anyway, make it one that actually supports the life you're building. Head to 1775 Coffee.com Rav and try rejuvenate pods today. Don't just drink coffee, rejuvenate. All right, now that we are caffeinated, it's time to stay awake, not woke. And who is awake to today? Actor Vince Vaughn, who slammed late night comedy shows for being agenda based. Take a look at this.
Tom Homan
Because people want authenticity.
Jason Redmond
Yeah.
Tom Homan
And I think that, I think that
John Solomon
the talk shows to a large part
Tom Homan
became really agenda based. Yeah. They were going to evangelical people, to what they thought, you know what I mean? And so people just rejected it because it didn't feel authentic.

Emily
Let's now bring in the host of Media Exposed, which you can see on the weekends here on rav. Adam Weiss. Adam, thank you so much for being with us this morning. Your thoughts on what Vince Vaughn had to say.
Adam Weiss
You know, if we had a teacher class, we don't know what triggered the media so much, what triggered the elite class so much. And when Trump got elected in 2016, we could go on and teach many classes. But I think he was like the cool kid, right, that went to high school, everything was cool about. He got the beautiful women, he was rich, he was successful, he went to the best parties and he won the presidency. So they got triggered so much. The late night comedians have gone on for 10, 11 years. But Trump, there's not much to make fun of with Trump. There's a lot on the Democratic side between Jasmine Crockett, Chuck Schumer, aoc, the there's so many things you can make jokes if you really want to be funny. But the late night comedians, I think and is the only business in America when the ratings go down and yet they stay in business. I don't know how that works, but it's only in the media and only in late night comedy. You can do bad and still stay successful and make millions.
Dr. Gina
Yeah, it's unbelievable, Adam. Also, the Media Research center made this montage of some in legacy media saying some of President Trump's accomplishments and ambitions were to distract from the Epstein files. Take a look.
David Brody
Trump is trying to change the subject
Tom Homan

Dr. Gina
They are not the only ones. But, Adam, the Epstein files are. They're there like the media is going through them. They've got them. I mean, maybe there's not enough focus on them, but there will be. This is all going to circle back around.
Adam Weiss
I remember there was like a bombshell. Too much bombshell. There's a photo of Trump with Epstein. Okay. We're both on the social circuit in New York. They took photos. It's like sometimes you go to three or four events and you got a photo. Another bombshell, another photo we discovered. But what don't we hear? 30 some of our visits by Bill Clinton to the island, right? Bill Clinton was his buddy. Other people in the Democratic administration, if they had something on Trump, obviously Biden would have leaked it. Kamala would have leaked it. There's nothing there on Trump. But the media continues.
Dr. Gina
If there was something, why would Trump have campaigned on this issue that he would release the Epstein files and then subsequently release. Release them if there was something on him.
Adam Weiss
As much as Trump's been abused by the media and the Democrats, he was gracious, almost forgiving of Bill Clinton. He's like, I really don't want to go after him for this. Let's let it be. You think the other side would ever do that to President Trump?
David Brody
I think that's rhetorical. No. The answer is no. Let me ask you real quick. The CPAC coverage, specifically the, the liberal media covering maga. I'm curious what you make of that. They like to say, say that MAGA is in this big feud about Iran and that it's split maga. There's definitely, there's some in MAGA for sure that are very concerned. But split makes it sound like it's 50, 50, I don't see that yet. Ground troops, a different matter. But right now I don't see it
Adam Weiss
because somehow the, the voting public is really still in favor of Donald Trump and maga. Yeah, the younger Gen Zs that watch the big podcast, some of the biggest podcasts true on the right and independent are anti war, you know, being like. So that's a split there. But does that translate to votes? Probably not. But there hasn't been great elections for the GOP lately. So every vote counts for us and we always have a tougher path to the majority. The Republicans do because our districts are much closer. You know, Democrats blow. You know, they win the inner cities 90, 10, 80, 20. We win districts 50, 248 for two. So any split's going to hurt the GOP. This is not going to be an easy cycle, I feel. So it's not great that the conservatives are fighting all the time and ranting and raving. We need to be more of a coalition. Like Trump was able to put everything together and like a comedian, like what's, what's his name? Schwartz.
David Brody
Rob Schneider.
Adam Weiss
No, in New York he was a big comedian.
David Brody
Oh, Dave Chappelle.

Foreign. We are live here at CPAC 2026 in Grapevine, Texas, just outside of Dallas. Appreciate you being here with us. It's now time for our moment of faith, which is brought to us by Lee Greenwood and the God Bless the USA Bible in focus today. The CCS Plan Legacy Institute is a nonprofit focused on transforming lives through through churches, communities and schools. The group says it's impacted more than 300,000 people since 2009 using mentorship, athletic inspiration, and it's put down your fake ID tour. The goal is to help people move from crisis to purpose. Let's bring in the founder of the group and the chairman of Athletes for Athletes for the America First Policy Institute. That will be Frank Murphy. He's also the author of this book here, the man behind the Helmet. Frank, welcome. Good to see you my friend.
David Brody
You too.
Frank Murphy
Thank you, thank you.
Terrence Pace
So tell us your story really quickly. I could lay it out for the folks, but it comes better from you. Tell us your story.
Frank Murphy
My story is a redemption, a story of second chances. My story is the opportunity instead of obligation that someone gave me an opportunity and I took advantage of it. And I didn't look at it like here we go again as I'm obligated to do it. So I was very blessed with that opportunity. I found myself Getting bullied at the age of 14 and 15. It went on for a little bit and it changed my life. I thought I had to live the same life as the bullies live. I found myself incarcerated at the age of 15 and I was locked up and incarcerated for a whole year waiting on trial. Those times was the hardest time of my life because I was raised by a Christian mom in church every day, praying every day. A hard working country dad that knew how to work hard and display that in front of his kids. But my life changed when I went behind bars. I got a chance to get a second chance, went to trial, one got out, went back to high school, but I didn't have the grades, so I couldn't go to a big school. I was an all American in one year, runner up to Mr. Florida. But I end up having to go to a junior college in Mississippi. I got to that college in something called residue follows you. The residue followed me because I didn't have a mentor or a life coach. And I got in trouble again. The coach called my mom and say, this kid has to go. My mom began to cry. I said, if you send him home, he'll be dead or in prison. The coach said, I may have one more college. He called another junior college in Kansas and they accepted me. When I got to that junior college, all I could say, don't get in trouble, don't get in trouble. But I still didn't have a mentor or a life coach to show me how not to get in trouble or what was my problem. I got in trouble again, got incarcerated again, and was facing five to 10 years. Everybody gave up on me at that moment. The coaches and the president say, you can never touch this football field again, but we'll leave you in school because you haven't been found guilty. You still have to go to trial. So here I am going to my second trial of my life. Within three to four years, my life changed. One day I was walking up and down the hallway that I go every day. I go to the classroom, back to my room because nobody wanted to talk to me. The coaches wouldn't speak to me no more, wouldn't let me use the weight room. I would walk past them and say, hey, coach. They would just turn their head and walk away. But a janitor stopped me. And a janitor say, I don't know who you are. You walk this way every day. And God told me to tell you that you have a light over your head and you're going to change the world. I began to Laugh. I'm like, lady, if you know who I was, you probably wouldn't be talking to me either. So I walked off. She said, no, I don't care who you are. I'm just telling you what God saying. She said, can you do something for me? I say, what is it? Can you go to church with me? I say, you sound just like my mom right now. I'm not really into all that. She said, this is the time you need to be into it. I said, you know what? I'mma go. From that day, she mentored me. She life coached me. A janitor, not a popular coach. She mentored a life coach, me all the way through, what I was going through, the hurt I was feeling, why I couldn't change. And you guys, I won trial for the second time. Came back to the team. The team told me, we'll let you try out, but we already got an all American running back. So they was like, you ain't gonna make the team anyway. I got on the team. I took that team to the national championship. I won mvp. I won the Heisman Trophy in junior college. I was the number one recruit in the nation and I went to the junior College hall of Fame.
Terrence Pace
But God, that is your story.
Frank Murphy
That is my story.
Dr. Gina
And the inspiration that, that this woman janitor of all the unlikely right, that tells you no matter who you are, you could be that person that does that for somebody.
David Brody
We have to, we have to wrap, but we need to have you back. Can we get you back anytime? Because there's a lot more to that story as well that you want to talk about.
Terrence Pace
I now you need to take off that helmet every day and share that story. The man behind the helmet. This is the book right here. Appreciate you being here with us.
David Brody
Thank you so much.
Terrence Pace
We're back with the second hour of American Sunrise in two minutes.

up on the second hour of American Sunrise. Our live coverage of CPAC 2026 continues as we enter day two of the conference here in Dallas Grapevine, Texas. We'll be checking in with top newsmakers throughout the hour. Also today, Senate lawmakers have approved a deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security. What do you know? They actually did their job, but without any funds for ICE or border protection. Did Senate Republicans surrender to the Democrats? We are going to discuss that. And later, the rise of radical Islam in deep red Texas. The number of mosques exploding down here in the Lone Star State. We're going to talk about the threat Texans face and how authorities are responding later on in the hour. Those stories and so much more as the second hour of American Sunrise starts from CPAC right now. Good morning, America.
Dr. Gina
Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you.
Terrence Pace
Politics.
David Brody
President Trump is joining us live now from Florida.
Terrence Pace
We've got this is what it looks
David Brody
like to be a patriot.
Terrence Pace
We have to protect the American family.
Dr. Gina
The American dream is still alive.
David Brody
I'm David Brody.
Terrence Pace
I'm terrence.
Dr. Gina
And I'm Dr. Gina.
David Brody
All right, welcome, everybody, to the second hour of American Sunrise. I'm David Brody, and I am here with.
Hi Rez
Oh, hello.
Terrence Pace
Good to see you. Good morning.
David Brody
My mother is here as well, so that's nice. Yeah, my father.
Tom Homan
Excuse me.
David Brody
I should say your mom got a
Terrence Pace
real deep voice, David.
David Brody
We're working through some issues. But anyhow, Terrence, it's great to see you. The gang's all together.
Dr. Gina
So cool to be here. This CPAC is just it's just, I feel like it is a. An answer to all the censorship that we've experienced for some so many years. I feel like everybody's talking about everything.
Terrence Pace
No, absolutely.
Dr. Gina
It's really cool. And we're gonna talk about this later, but they put me on a panel today, and the name of it is Cigars, Steaks and Ivermectin. You know what I was thinking? Four years ago, you couldn't have even said that. Could have even said it.
David Brody
That's true.
Dr. Gina
It's really cool. Yeah, that's true.
David Brody
That's the coolest panel name ever in the history of cpac.
Dr. Gina
The coolest ever. And I have a feeling Match Slap came up with it. We're gonna have to ask.
David Brody
Oh, yeah, he'll be here.
Dr. Gina
I think he loves cigars.
Terrence Pace
Absolutely. And looking forward to hearing more about that panel. Obviously, the title gives us an idea, but want to hear your thoughts. Give folks a preview that's going to come up here in a little bit.
Danielle Buck
David.
David Brody
Yeah, for sure. Hey, listen, so.
Dr. Gina
But the biscuits aren't on the healthy list. I'm sorry.
David Brody
No, those biscuits. So we went this restaurant we went to last night, Zeppeli.
Terrence Pace
Zeppeli.
Dr. Gina
Is that like that?
David Brody
Yeah, just. Just to die for.
Dr. Gina
It should have been just named the Biscuit.
David Brody
Yeah, that's right.
Dr. Gina
Yeah.
David Brody
And with the amount of cholesterol in it we would have to die for is actually accurate. All right, so look, Matt Gaetz spoke yesterday at cpac. Let's play a little bit of this. He kind of weighs into this whole Tucker Carlson, Mark Levin versus the Matt Gaetz and others of the world. This is what he had to say. Take a look. We have to end this. Cancel culture that is now occurring on the right. Dissent and disagreement has to be allowed. Tucker Carlson isn't going anywhere. I didn't bring a list of people to denounce or disclaim. And antisemitism isn't hiding around every corner and in every Bush. President Trump is a builder. He understands that politics is an exercise in addition, not subtraction and division. And so while I may not agree with the likes of Mark Levin or Ben Shapiro or. Or my cuckoo bee that we have some sort of near slavish loyalty to a country in a faraway land, I would walk across hot coals arm in arm with those individuals to stop the Democrats from turning America into a more transsexual version of Venezuela. I would walk across hot coals and glass with all three of you, by the way, just to interview David Zier.
Dr. Gina
That's the man. David Zier, you are the man.
Terrence Pace
I'm not going to lie. I'm not walking across hot cones for anybody.
Dr. Gina
If there's a biscuit on the other side, I don't know you and the biscuits, I'm leaving.
Terrence Pace
That was a shot. I don't appreciate it.
David Brody
Listen, if you're leaving, bring us back biscuits.
Terrence Pace
There you go.
Tom Homan
They've lost it already, folks. They've lost it already.
Terrence Pace
There was a biscuit on other side. Yes, you would.
David Brody
It's kind of dangerous when we're all together. Actually, it's a bit dangerous.
Dr. Gina
The poor producers are like, please get to the guest. Please get to the guest. Please close the segment.
Hi Rez
Hi, David.
Dr. Gina
David's here. What did you think about Matt Gates comments?
Tom Homan
I think there is a lot of anti Semitism out there and I'm very concerned about it. I'm very concerned, especially being in New York. There's attacks all the time, you know, on Jews and I think Israel is our biggest ally. It used to be the UK And I don't know where that dynamic is change. And it doesn't mean we can't criticize policies in Israel or other. I don't like the divisiveness going on. The divisiveness going on on the MAGA side, you know, but at least there's conversations and discussions on where our priorities are, something the left doesn't do. They're always unified in lockstep with the municipal unions and the big, you know, organizations being told where to go, what to do. They don't know why they're there. You know, you have socialists supporting the ayatollah. Even know the socialists are the ones who should be taking power in Iran because they're the ones on the ground but fighting the government for 47 years. So at least we have intelligent dialogue going on. I have a lot of respect for Matt Gaetz. You know, he's. He's a whip. I was with him in the Pentagon a couple times and he's really sharp and he questioned, you know, the military about the F35 readiness program and other things. He's unafraid. He's a very informed guy. I guess at least there's a discussion.
Terrence Pace
Yeah, absolutely.
David Brody
No, I was going to say that's a very truthful and honest answer. Well, it's always truthful from you.
Terrence Pace
No, absolutely. And discussion is good. When more minds are at the table, hopefully you get a broader perspective and are able to move forward. So let's talk a bit about the war in Iran. There's obviously news coming out overnight. The White House and the Pentagon considering sending an additional 10,000 troops. President Trump also pushing back the timeframe, if you will, for potentially a 10 attacking Iran's electrical grid. So much happening. How do you assess all of this?
Tom Homan
Well, I think the 10K troops additional to the 82nd Airborne and the MEU units, which have like 4400 Marines on the USS Boxer and the Tripoli, which will be there any day. I think it's a negotiating chip probably, you know, to put the pressure on Iran. I don't know how exactly they could serve over there. And Matt was critical of ground invasion, says it makes the US Weaker.
David Brody
Right.
Tom Homan
I believe something to that extent. But there's a lot going on over there. You know, there's been $25 billion in damage on the energy industry in Cotter Shell's crown jewel plant over there. And, you know, there's a lot of issues. It's going to take five years to repair one of the plants in Cotter. It's going to take another year to get another one. And we've got the aluminum and the helium and the fertilizer shortage changes and everything. A lot going on. Internet blackout still on in Iran. And I questioned Pete Hegseth about that a couple of weeks ago, about a week ago, you know, what are we doing to get the Internet up and running so these resistance movements can gel out there? And we are seeing activity on the ground, both from the NCRI types and the mek, which is, you know, the people who've been oppressed were oppressed by the Shah, overthrew the government and the movement was hijacked by the mullahs here. But I think we're in a pretty strong position. There is some passage going on of the vessels through the strait. I think that within a week you're going to see traffic going through the straits. I heard a report that there were only like 10 mines in the Strait of Hormuz. It's not like there's thousands of these things laying around. So I expect things probably to get better.
Terrence Pace
I, I'm chuckling that like, you're right, it's only 10 mines, but it's only 10 mines until you run over one of them.
John Solomon
Yeah. And if you're with it.
Terrence Pace
But.
Tom Homan
And if you're within 10ft of them, they're magnetic and they draw to it. And, but, but, you know, rants are terrifically weakened, so for sure.
David Brody
Would you like to ask a question?
Dr. Gina
I'm still thinking about those biscuits. David's here David, you talked about your concern for anti Semitism in this country right now and then you talked about your respect for Congressman, former Congressman Gates. I'm wondering what do you think the solution is to uniting MAGA before the midterms?
Terrence Pace
Wow.
Dr. Gina
Because a lot of people are saying I hear a lot of voices out there and this is what really galls me, saying shut up. Just shut up. Don't talk about the things. But you pointed to the fact that, you know, just because you're against maybe extra spending on countries or sending more money to foreign nations does not make you an anti Semite.
Frank Murphy
Right.
Dr. Gina
And I think we need to start to have that conversation about can it be both and does it always have to be either or? But I want to hear what you think the answer is to unite MAGA before the midterms.
Tom Homan
I think it's important, important to recognize all the thousands of terrorist attacks inside Israel by Hamas and the obliteration of Israel in their charter and Hezbollah, which has crossed the Shiites and merged them with the Sunnis to destroy and wipe out Israel. I think that's, you know, a paramount issue and we can never forget that. But we can also critique and, you know, CPAC is the forum to hash out the issues. I think that the midterms is about getting out the vote. I Every poll in the last 150 poll releases on Real Clear Politics has the Democrats winning by four to nine seats. You know, we can only afford to lose a couple of seats and it's over. And you've got races across the country now. There were some positive decisions out there. You've got Missouri, the Supreme Court redistricting being held up. We pick up a red seat there. We're going to pick up the first seat in North Carolina. We're going to. But we're going to lose the seat seat in Utah. We're going to lose a seat. So it's going to come down to the wire. I think things will get better. I think prices will stabilize this summer. I think MAGA will unite. I'm confident that we'll get through these issues as long as something radical doesn't happen overseas. And Trump's moves in the Western Hemisphere, securing the Western Hemisphere with all the countries in south and Central America and the coast Caribbean agreeing to help the United States wipe out the cartels, which is just fascinating. And the Middle east policy, if it stabilizes, I think, and the Sunni states uniting, I think is really important. The Sunni Gulf states have united to take on Iran because they can't afford to be out of business. And I think the Shiites made a mistake by attacking them.
David Brody
David Zir, we got to go. But real quick, to your point, to me, if you're criticizing Israel's policies, that's fine. It's obviously not anti Semitic.
Dr. Gina
If you are concerned about funding, have, have for some reason put those two things together as if it's the same thing. And it isn't.
David Brody
Here's the red line to me. When you're, when, when Israel is always the answer to all of the problems, that's when it's the blame Israel crowd. Like I saw Babylon be put this up the other day in jest, right? And in a funny line, Tucker Carlson loses Wheel of Fortune because he answered every answer as Israel. Okay, that's the point. When you, you're starting to blame Israel for everything, not just the, the war, but just everything under the sun, then you're into. I'm sorry. Then you're into conspiratorial land. And that's a problem. That's a real problem. That's the way I see it. All right, we gotta run. Okay. Like always, I always have the last word. I like that.
Dr. Gina
Yeah. As long as you have your makeup close by, you'll be all right.
David Brody
Oh, I've got it right here. Here. Thank you. Don't touch it, please.
Dr. Gina
Oh, yes. No.
David Brody
All right. Sorry.
Terrence Pace
I'm so disturbed.
David Brody
Sorry.
Terrence Pace
So disturbed.
David Brody

Terrence Pace
Welcome back to CPAC 2026. We are live here in Grapevine, Texas. Dr. Gina David here with us. We've got a guest coming up here momentarily here at Real America's Voice. We want to thank all of them, our sponsors who've helped make CPAC 2026 coverage such a success. We also want to highlight our friends over at Patriot Mobile. Defend faith, family and freedom. Switch today and get one month free with the promo code cpac. So now I mentioned that we have a guest. Let's bring in vice president of strategic partnership for Patriot Mobile, Danielle Buck. Danielle, welcome.
Danielle Buck
Thank you. Thanks for having me.
Terrence Pace
Absolutely. To have you here, talk about the motivation behind Patriot Mobile, what motivated you got to start and to branch off because people could go anywhere. But specifically people want to come to Patriot Mobile now.
Danielle Buck
You're exactly right. So Patriot Mobile has been around for 13 years and we're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. But the difference is is that we're a mission based company. So yes, every single one of you has a cell phone. Everyone out there, every single person here at cpac, everyone around the country, they use it for their life. But the difference is is that we take a bill that you're going to pay every single month and we take a portion of that and we give it back to conservative Christian causes. So here at cpac, it's amazing because we're getting to see all these causes that we get to work with because we give within our four pillars which we which is the first Amendment, the second Amendment, the sanctity of life and our veterans and first responders. So just yesterday, Penny Nance was on a panel speaking about the pro life issue and she's one of our cause partners that we work with. And so we actually had dinner and got to talk about how we work together. So Patreon Mobile isn't just a phone company, but we are a phone company.
Emily
Right.
Danielle Buck
And it works exactly the same. So that's a lot of the questions that we've been getting over here at our booth since we've been here is, okay, I've heard about you guys for years, but how does it work? Well, it's simple. We actually have all three of the major networks. So if your phone works in America today, your phone will work on Patriot Mobile. There is absolutely no difference. You can bring your phone, you can bring your phone number and we can get you switched today. And the difference is, is where your money's going.
David Brody
You know, it makes you wonder that 10 years ago, 15 years ago, this might not have been the case. We're living in a different culture today. We're living in a different world and also different economy. You talk about it all the time, the parallel economy. So talk a little bit about the growth that Patriot Mobile has, has seen over the years.
Danielle Buck
Yeah, well, we've seen incredible growth and I really believe it's because of the Lord and because of what we're doing with those dollars. I mean, just last year we gave over $3 million away and we plan to give significantly more than that this year because we're growing so much. So the more people at home that join us, you see every single month an email that talks about all the things that we did with your money that month for the causes that align with your values. The veteran groups that we're doing to help the things in the Second Amendment space. People desperately care about that because it's under attack. Right. And so it's so amazing to see how God has blessed this business. Glen Story will be on a little bit later today. I believe he's on Bannon's show and he'll talk about that because he started this company 13 years ago. But when he put God at the helm of Patriot Mobile, our growth went like this. And so that's actually what drew me to this company personally.
Emily
Right.
Danielle Buck
Like, I'm a young mom and I care deeply about the country that I'm leaving for my children. And that's why I get up every day and work at a company like Patriot Mobile. Because I see what we're doing by being in the for profit space because everyone has to pay a cell phone bill. Like that's the simple fact of it. Right? Like it is, we're not asking you to buy something you don't need. We're literally saying, hey, just switch something. It might be slightly inconvenient, it might take 20, 30 minutes of your time, but I promise it's worth it.
Dr. Gina
So love to meeting your whole team last night, that was so much fun. And it seems to me like the RAV team, RAV family and. And your team are very much the same. So we're so glad to partner with you guys and do all the work we do together. But you have a special offer just for our RAV audience today, just during cpac. Tell us.
Danielle Buck
Yeah, that's right. So if you're here or you're watching at home, you guys can get a special of an entire month free. So you use code Real America's Voice. And if you sign up here at the show, you actually can get two months free if you put down $20 activation fee. And one thing is, I want to mention is whether you're an individual, whether you're a family, whether you're a business, we can service you. I mean, we have small businesses, large businesses. We have lots of business solutions. I grabbed this little wireless router that was really cool and branded for America that we offer and it actually runs on multiple network. So that's one of the other things I mentioned earlier, that we have the same coverage. But what's different is you can actually get better coverage on Patriot Mobile because you can have more than one network on one phone if you desire. And we have it called Patriot Mobile One where you can get a backup line for $15 a month. So, yeah, we have salespeople here. We have. Our Phone lines are open 8 to 8, 9 7, 2, Patriot. You can call or you can actually do the entire process online. So it is totally up to you at home if you have questions. And it's all US based customer service. So you're talking to somebody in this country. We actually have a call center in East Texas, not too far from here, about two hours east. And then we have one in California.
David Brody
What's the website? Real quick.
Dr. Gina
Yeah.
Danielle Buck
Patriot mobile.com Real Americas voice. Riv.
David Brody
That sounds good.
Terrence Pace
Let me just. I wonder, this call center, is it in Longview or Tyler?
Danielle Buck
It's in Tyler. Which is really funny because actually, when I was younger, many years ago, I actually lived in Tyler, Texas. So it's kind of been a full circle moment for me. I did the news in Tyler many years ago, and now we get to have 150 employees in Tyler.
Terrence Pace
My first job in television.
Danielle Buck
No.
Terrence Pace
Was in Longview. I was the bureau reporter. It was called Region 56 News. Is that your city or were you.
Danielle Buck
I was at KLTV tv.
Terrence Pace

Welcome back, everybody. We're getting ready for the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange as we always do. It's going to ring here in about four minutes actually, as I was looking at that, the futures, depending on where you stand, they may be good, they may not be so good. Unfortunately, it's not popped up right now, so I can't see it. But we will take you you to New York for the opening bell here in just a little bit. But David, if you'll bring in our next guest, if you don't mind. And I'm only putting it on you because I had a shirt on the other day that had gangster rappers on it. I was traveling and he has posted it on all of these Facebook sites. And so now people think that I'm some sort of gangster rapper out there. So I'm just going to turn my back to this guy and I'll allow you to take he doesn't like, he doesn't like marshmallows. That's a whole nother thing that I've been holding on to for months.

Enjoy this.
Danielle Buck
Thank you.
Terrence Pace
Yeah.
Bobby Eberly
I enjoyed this segment.
David Brody
And I'll see you later. Hey, listen, Bobby, let's talk about there are a lot of mosques popping up in Texas, really all across the country. But specifically Texas, you're from what, Houston, I believe. Right?
Bobby Eberly
Right.
David Brody
But here in Dallas, I know it's been astronomical. And then they have this Muslim enclave they were thinking about building, Epic City, which is north here of Dallas. I understand those plans have now been kiboshed legally, thanks to Ken Paxton and Greg Abbott. But the point is, is that this isn't just about mosque. This is about mosque. Mosque being the center of what a lot of folks want there in the Muslim community, which is an enclave, which is like communities, schools, churches, churches, mosques, all of it just being centered around, in essence, Allah and the Quran.
Bobby Eberly
Right, Right. And here's the thing. I think to me, it all comes down to the word assimilation. You know, I don't care your background, your religion, anything, as long as people that want to come to America become Americans and adopt American culture and American values and don't think that they can, you know, stay separate in a country that is built on coming together with an American culture and American values. I remember growing up where I did in Chicago, everyone on our street was Czech or Polish, and they had that grandmother in the. In the upstairs that couldn't speak a word of English. And yet the one generation later, it's fluent English. And they're working to embrace that American dream. And so when you have the exact opposite happening, and not only happening, but being encouraged, that's something that should concern everybody. Because, again, our biggest strength is not diversity. It is the strength of our American spirit. Regardless of your background, but that American spirit, you adopt that you are truly an American. And that's where we really stand out as a country.
Dr. Gina
But, Bobby, what do you do when the studies suggest, by the sociological studies that have been conducted over and over again, say that their culture is not compatible with this culture? What do you do?
Terrence Pace
Right.
Bobby Eberly
And that's where you really have to say, what direction do you want our country to go? You know, we've seen this in Europe when you talk about Western civilization and Western values, okay, what is that built on? You know, what was the success? It's capitalism. It's Christianity. It's these. These values that promote free speech and justice and fairness, and it is counter to civilization. I mean, look at the mass migration in Europe and look at the rape statistics that you've been seeing in all of these places. And it's being perpetrated by those migrants. I mean, it's overwhelmingly 75% in some cases. So there is an incompatibility there that some people, you just have to eventually draw the line and say, look, Swedish people are Swedish. You know, they're not from, you know, North Africa or the Arab nations. And it's okay to be Swedish. You know, there was someone in parliament that's in. I believe it was Scotland or Ireland that said the Irish are too white. Well, it's like they're Irish, you know, that's their country. And it's like. But in America, you can be any background as long as you embrace the American culture and have values that are compatible.
Terrence Pace
Our word of the day, Assimilation.
David Brody

Terrence Pace

David Brody
Bobby, we've got to run because we got to get to the bell. But the good news is, is that you and Terrence didn't have to talk this entire segment.

All right, folks, we're getting ready for the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. You hear the applause, which means the bell is going to ring here momentarily. And then we'll get an idea of how the markets are looking. There you hear it. The markets are officially open and it's not such a great start on this Friday of trading. Look at the top of our board here. The Dow, S P 500, NASDAQ, all in the red. The bottom part of our board looking a little bit better. But again, when all oil is up, that means gas prices likely also going to be on the rise. Just something to keep in mind. We, of course, will continue to monitor all of this for you throughout the day and keep you updated. We are going to take a quick break, though, and then we'll get you back here to CPAC 2026. By the way, here on Real America's Voice at CPAC 2026, we also remember what 1776 truly means. It was the year that Americans stood up to the British crown and declared that liberty was not negotiable. It was God given. That same spirit is alive and well in the room today. And now you can carry it with you with The American made 20 ounce 17 76% sure tumbler. It's laser engraved right here in the USA. It's double wall insulated to keep your drink cold for 24 hours or hot for eight.

Dr. Gina
Welcome back to American sunrise. I'm Dr. Gina. We thank you for joining us this morning. We invite you to hop on over in our conversation on YouTube, getter and rumble. It is time now to take the political pulse of America. The beat today. MASH Lab.
David Brody
You are the beat.
Dr. Gina
You are the beat.
Matt Schlapp
Is that good to be the beat?
Dr. Gina
Yes. On this show, yes. Yes. No. But Matt, I wanted to say, and I thought this over and over again, this is like the best CPAC ever because this is the one where I feel like free speech ruled the day, you know? Did you name the panel I'm on today? Cigars, Steaks and I remember.
Matt Schlapp
How did you know I knew that
Dr. Gina
I'm Going to give you one of my cigars. Right.
Matt Schlapp
I did it sober, but I make those titles up late at night. Mercy helps me. My oldest daughter helped me. And I'm a little bit of a sarcastic guy, and I think we got to have a little bit of fun. But that was truthful.
Dr. Gina
That is the truth. And you know what? Dr. Gina, wild child cigar, it's all yours. But you know what, Matt? Honestly, four years ago, we couldn't have said that. In fact, had we named a panel that four years ago we would have been shut down. And what would have happened? The world has changed. And I love the way you this year, like, tongue in cheek. But, like, all out there are just nailing that message.
Matt Schlapp
Yeah, the. We had like a secret Ivermectin chain of people. And one of my board members, Dr. Brooke Miller, who is our. Now our physician, you know, we changed everything in our lives, really. I mean, we had to change who our doctors were because politics got into medicine. And I remember cpac, people would text me, like, how did your. How are you getting your Ivermectin? And I'd be like, connecting them to people. I felt like I was either like a drug dealer or I was like in the underground railroad. I don't know. But it was like. It was crazy. And the thing is this, which is something good came out of it, which is we all woke up to the fact, like, don't casually digest what someone tells you is true without using your own discernment, which there's a religious aspect to that and trying to determine what that truth is. And it became life or death. And it was about raising up a generation of warriors because I didn't realize it, but I was teaching my kids skills they're going to need as things could get worse.
David Brody
Listen, so, Matt, we have a sizzle reel of CPAC already put together, and we want you to see it because you're here at CPAC and you know everything. So here it is. Take a look.
Terrence Pace
CPAC 2026 got underway yesterday. There's so many people from around the world here. This isn't just a US Conference. It truly is a global conference.
Emily
You see that? There is definitely some conversations that need to be had. So this is the place to do it.
Terrence Pace
Real America's voice at the CPAC 2026 awesome Conservative Conference.
Public Podcast Sponsor
This is what RAV is all about right here, folks.
David Brody
How we doing? And cpac, let me make some noise. Politics is the roads you drive on. It's the schools your kids go to. It's the Food you eat, the air you breathe. And if you have a cons, you know, a chance to keep your freedom. So I think politics, if, if you avoid politics, politics is going to catch up to you.
Danielle Buck
That music is so powerful, where words
Dr. Gina
spell, music can penetrate. And the left knows this. That's why the tech suppression, the cancel culture, that's why they fight. When we get to number one on the charts, it's an unbelievable hard, extra hard battle.

David Brody
Jesus is Lord of America. Do you believe that? Say yes to that.
Dr. Gina
Amen.
Adam Weiss
What I must say is that this
David Brody
represents the power of our movement, the
Public Podcast Sponsor
power of the MAGA movement.
David Brody
Matt, I'm curious about the straw poll that's coming up. I am. I cannot wait to find out those results. Yeah, I remember a year ago, 61%, J.D. vance in 2028, Bannon was at 12%, DeSantis at 7%, 3% for Marco Rubio. That Rubio number, I bet you anything's going to be more than 3%. And I wonder what J.D. vance's number is. Not that you have to kind of ballpark this out, but that is going to be an interesting result.
Matt Schlapp
Yeah, I agree. And I think that I want to just make a comment generally, maybe not answer your question, pretty good at answering questions, but I think Donald Trump has set the bar for the fact. And you all know this, but he's very available. When you call Donald Trump, he calls you back. When a reporter asks him a question, he gives them an answer. They don't always like the answer. And Donald Trump created this tradition of always showing up at events. CPAC was not the only event, but he kind of got his political start at cpac. And I'd say for all the younger guys, listen to the old guy. He was so available to everybody. He was so welcoming of their ideas. He was constantly polling. He had his finger on the pulse of the conservative movement because he talked to people, a wide variety of people, on a regular basis. CPAC does not own that in any way, but we were a big part of that. If you want to represent this group, you've got to do that. You're not going to be the president behind armed guards. You're not going to be the president behind locked doors. You're not going to be be the president because somebody once saw you someplace. You're not going to be the president because you did a TV hit you're going to be the President because you're connected to these people. So for all the names that are in that straw poll, they need to sit down and talk to Donald Trump about how you get it done.
David Brody
Well, since you brought it down, you
Terrence Pace
want to go there?
David Brody
We got the same follow up question.
Terrence Pace
Why isn't the President here? I think a lot of people were hoping and probably expecting that he would be.
Matt Schlapp
First of all, he hasn't said he's not coming.
Terrence Pace
Okay, so will he be here?
Matt Schlapp
No, I'm not trying to be cute about it. All I'm saying is that all of us who have worked closely with the President, Dr. Gina knows that he makes decisions every day. He gets up and he looks at things and, you know, maybe he'll show up. If he doesn't, I don't have any acrimony about it at all. He is running the entire world. He's trying to rebuild the economy. He's trying to, you know, have freedom, have a chance in places like Cuba and Iran. And by the way, he probably wouldn't like me saying this, but he has done the hard work in politics for over a decade, including being at, you know, every CPAC he possibly could be at. And I think the people here trust him and give him grace over the fact that, that he's got a lot on his plate. But I do think for everyone else, that's kind of in his orbit. I think they all believe that the way they're gonna get to the next stage in their career, right, is to get, you know, use, use the satellite bird to get it done. It won't get it done. You gotta show up, you gotta talk to people. It's a, it's a slog. It's a beautiful slog. And you eat wonderful people. You got to do that. And I, so I think that's the thing going into the straw poll. Who is going to do that? My prediction is whoever actually does that will be the nominee.
David Brody
So let me just say a quick follow up on that because where I was going with my follow up was I'm reading the tea leaves a little bit in your answer. JD Vance should be here. Marco Rubio should be here. The 20, 28 folks that are going to be on the ballot potentially should be here. Is that kind of what you were saying?
Matt Schlapp
Well, you know, I want to depersonalize it because I don't know Marco Rubio. I have to say, he's doing a
David Brody
heck of a job.
Matt Schlapp
Secretary of State. Hard for me to quibble with what's on his agenda. I know they had a cabinet meeting. Same thing goes for J.D. vance. But I do think it's a fair admonition, which is, look, you, Donald Trump is powerful. He is the most powerful Democratic politician I've ever seen. As much as they think he might hand this to someone, I think he's smarter than that because I think he knows even him with all his power doesn't work that way. You know, Ronald Reagan had a big 11 person or something primary after he was the most successful president after eight years. He made the decision, he was such a wise man. He made the decision not to endorse anyone. And there was this big primary and George H.W. bush and Bob Dole and all these people, the heroes of their day, they had a slug out and Bush came out on top. He didn't come out on top because he was Ronald Reagan's vice president, because Reagan was winking and nodding. He came out on top because he almost lost. He lost in Iowa, he almost lost in New Hampshire. And he had to show the people that he was going to work for it. Right. And that's how this, that's how it should work. By the way, if it doesn't work that way sounds wrong.
Dr. Gina
Yeah. Well, I think you're right. I think Donald Trump has set the bar in such a different way. You've got to have that authenticity. People don't want to see a polished, branded politician packaged by the Karl Roves of the world. And they want you to show up. They want you to be there. That's the reason I came around on Donald Trump.
Matt Schlapp
Phone calls is a big part of that.
John Solomon
Right.
Matt Schlapp
Use that as a thing. Do you know who in all of Trump world who returns calls the best? Trump.
Dr. Gina
Oh, yeah.
Matt Schlapp
You know who's the second best at doing it?
David Brody
Trump.
Matt Schlapp
People with the last name Trump.
Dr. Gina
Yeah, right.
Matt Schlapp
People with big titles around Trump, they don't have the skill.
Dr. Gina
People all the time think because I live in Florida that I have a personal relationship with Ron DeSantis. I'm like, I can't get him to return a phone call. But you know what? I can call Donald Trump and he will always return the phone call.
Matt Schlapp
It's interesting. Many of the people, many of the people who did show up, I have that same relationship with, with like Dr. Oz was on our stage the other day. You text Dr. Oz, text you back. I don't bother him. He's busy. He's doing a great job.
Dr. Gina
Bobby Kennedy. Same way.
Matt Schlapp
Bobby Kennedy. Same way.
Dr. Gina
Yeah.
Matt Schlapp
So it's interesting, those folks that you, you know who else is great at it? Speaker Mike Johnson. As he's got the worst, toughest job in politics. Iris. No, best office, worst job. And he's got this grace and calmness and he's so respectful and he's, he's ready for his moment. Now look, sometimes politics hit you when you're not ready for that moment. He's gotta go the time and that's what it takes.
Dr. Gina
They're yelling in my ear, Matt, but we could talk to you all day.
Jason Redmond
Thank you.
Dr. Gina
Matt Schlap, thank you for being with us. All right, thanks so much for joining us today. There's more American Sunrise after the break. Stay with us.

Good morning.
David Brody
How y' all doing?
Terrence Pace
Doing well. Appreciate you being here. Love the song. I was gonna drop it like a top, but at my age, I just drop it like a Luke's. Like, it's lukewarm. But we appreciate you being here with us. Talk about the inspiration behind the song.
Hi Rez
Yeah, I mean, you guys kind of nailed it. You know, I grew up in a household where everything was a Republican's fault and something for some reason, as I got older, you know, thank God I married a beautiful woman. I have some beautiful kids. And I realized that just, you know, forget Republican or Democrat, just conservative values. That's American. That's very American. And you know, it's the core of our country. And I remember a few years back, I saw that you couldn't even put an American flag in your video without getting some sort of flack. And I was like, this is mind blowing. It made no sense to me. And, you know, the rest is history. And as you hear in the record, it's just. I love my country. Not necessarily always the government. Right. I think people tend to not know how to separate that. I love my country no matter who's in power.
Dr. Gina
That is such a great point, Jairez, because, you know, we hear all the time from the left, you know, that they hate America, that they don't like America, that they, you know, they agree with our enemies against us. But that is the dumbest thing ever. When you stop to consider the blood that's been shed and the dedication and the uncompromising will of Americans from day one to. To do something, to conduct an experiment successfully that has never been done before and has lasted longer now, 250 years, that makes this song extra special, doesn't it?
Hi Rez
Absolutely. Yeah.
David Brody
It's.
Hi Rez
You hit the nail on the head. I think that, you know, we've seen it over the decades with the left especially. I think Obama was kind of the first when we really saw just political correctness and identity politics really take a shift in America and the culture about just everything. I feel like we were at a place in society a lot of people agree, where racism was on life support and a lot of these things were really like, it needed to be rebranded and repackaged. And unfortunately, I feel like it happened. And, you know, it's a shame that, you know, most liberals, maybe not all, as you just said, would side with the enemy over their own country if it just meant their team winning.
Matt Schlapp
Hey.
David Brody
Hi, Rez. There's so much material out there. You wonder what's next. I mean, you could do a song like go ahead and Leave if you want. You know, I mean, there's so much stuff.
Dr. Gina
David wants a royalty if you do that song.
David Brody
And by the way, are you in high res? But that's a separate issue.
Terrence Pace
Go ahead.
Hi Rez
Yeah, yeah, it's. We got a bunch of records coming out, man. Shout out to lj. Thank you, Rav, for. For, you know, releasing this record. Look, I think America is for everybody, man. Some people might think that's even controversial. I think that you don't have to love this country, but I think you have to be at least, at the very least appreciative and respectful of what this country has given your people, your ancestors of all races and religions, myself included. If you listen to the record, this is the greatest country on earth. There is not a greater country in the world.
Terrence Pace
High res appreciate you being here with us. Amen and just thank you for bringing a message back to rap. I'm a hip hop head and I appreciate what you're doing. Thank you so much. By the way, Translation that means I like rap. Hip hop Head means I like rap.
Matt Schlapp
Thanks so much.
Terrence Pace
Hi Rez. Appreciate it.
Dr. Gina
Thank you. Best of luck with this song.

Today I don't want to bury the lead. Give us a sneak preview.
Dr. Gina
The name of the panel that Matt Schlapp came up with. Matt Schlapp and I share a love for cigars. I just launched my new cigar brand, Dr. Regina Wildchild. And Matt named my panel, which I love this. Cigars, Steaks, and Ivermectin. And I think that's the best. Because you know why? Because all three are good for you. And they lied to us about it. Obviously. The benefits of nicotine are being published like crazy now. The great thing is, you know, I'm such a Maha person that's in my heart. It always has been. And that we're being told the truth now. They're publishing. Publishing data that's telling us the truth now. Meat is good for you. Remember when they were telling us it was going to kill us? Ivermectin is good for you. Used to be horse paste. It was going to kill us all right. Not Covid, not the China virus, not the establishment medicine. But we're going to talk about some of these things, the truth in data and science that's out there now. And it's going to be a great panel. I hope everyone can join us. It's at 10:15, and this is your
Terrence Pace
passion, as you say. So you're not just a panelist. You're talking about something that is near and dear to your heart.
Dr. Gina
Yeah, absolutely, Terrence. And has been for a long time, ever since I would work in my husband's Senate office and the women and the mothers and the dads would come in and tell me the stories of how their kids were being killed by hospital births and sepsis, by vaccines, by medicine, malpractice, and. And it was it. That. That's the moment. And this is a long time ago, and I've been on this ever since. Yeah.

is an I heart podcast. Guaranteed human.
Recorded live from CPAC 2026 in Grapevine, Texas, this edition of American Sunrise dives into hot-button conservative topics, including the ongoing conflict with Iran, party unity within MAGA, child trafficking, assimilation and immigration issues in Texas, the role of faith and redemption, grassroots activism, and culture wars. The episode is energetic and diverse—in tone and content—with commentary, interviews with prominent voices, and a recurring sense that the 2026 conservative movement is reasserting itself after years of perceived censorship and division.
Key hosts/panelists include Dr. Gina, David Brody, Terrence Pace, and Emily, with guests such as veteran journalist John Solomon, Navy SEAL Jason Redmond, activist Yaako (Jacob Boyens), media commentator Adam Weiss, rapper Hi Rez, CCS Plan Legacy founder Frank Murphy, Patriot Mobile VP Danielle Buck, and more.
On Iran Policy and Negotiations:
“Negotiating with Iran is an extraordinary challenge because what they say is what they don’t mean. What they don’t mean isn’t what they say, or what they do mean, they never say.”
— John Solomon (07:57)
Grassroots Mood at CPAC:
“This isn’t just a US Conference. It truly is a global conference.”
— Terrence Pace (18:06)
Conservative Culture and Music:
“Where words fail, music can penetrate. And the left knows this. That’s why the tech suppression, the cancel culture...”
— Dr. Gina (18:48)
On Party Unity vs. Division:
“Politics is an exercise in addition, not subtraction and division … I would walk across hot coals arm in arm with those individuals to stop the Democrats...”
— Matt Gaetz through David Brody (64:16)
On Fighting Child Trafficking:
“We have more slaves today in this country than ever before … When the state endorses slavery, your society is collapsing.”
— Yaako Boyens (38:13)
On Authenticity in Media:
“It stopped being funny and it started feeling like I was a class I didn’t want to take.”
— Vince Vaughn (46:26)
On Cultural Assimilation:
“Our biggest strength is not diversity. It is the strength of our American spirit. Regardless of background, you adopt that, you are truly an American.”
— Bobby Eberly (86:13)
On Personal Redemption:
“My story is a redemption—a story of second chances. The opportunity instead of obligation that someone gave me.”
— Frank Murphy (54:30)
On CPAC Straw Polls and Trump:
“You’re not going to be the president because someone once saw you someplace... You’re going to be the President because you’re connected to these people.”
— Matt Schlapp (97:00)
This episode of American Sunrise is a snapshot of the conservative movement’s mood in early 2026: a resolve to defend “faith, family, and freedom”; a call for both internal debate and outward unity; and an embrace of culture as a frontline in the broader political battle. From policy deep-dives to stories of personal renewal, the show projects both the challenges ahead and the optimistic spirit of an energized base.
